Water Margin official

Liangshan Dazhai, inside Juyi Hall.

Zhang Zhengdao was having a banquet with the leaders. One of them, a dark-faced man, drank three bowls in a row. He put down the big bowl, wiped his mouth stained with wine and vegetables with his sleeve, and shouted loudly in a rough voice: "Have a good time, iron." Niu has not eaten like this for several days."

Then, the big black man pointed at Zhang Zhengdao and shouted: "From now on, you, the bold village leader who hides his face, will do whatever you ask me to do."

Zhu Gui scolded him and said: "You are a black man. After eating a few bowls of wine, you can't hold back your words. You must not be rude to the leader of the village."

The big black man yelled with a flat mouth: "You were very strict along the way and didn't let me drink. Now that we have arrived at the village, I have two more bowls of wine. What's wrong with me!"

"Brother, the leader of the village, never said anything about me." Li Kui's eyes widened and he shouted: "Perhaps you feel sorry for the imitation wine, because you are afraid that I will eat too much."

"So stingy!" Li Kuiwu kept mumbling to himself.

Zhu Gui's face turned blue with anger, and he regretted recommending this rough man to Liangshan Mountain.

After returning to Yishui County, Zhu Gui spent time with Li Kui day and night. Only then did Zhu Gui realize that this gangster was rude and had no sense of dignity. Although he was upright, he was a drunkard and a gambler.

Along the way, Zhu Gui kept Li Kui under control, refusing to drink a drop of wine with him. He scratched his head and scratched his head, feeling uncomfortable all over, and there was not a single good word in his mouth.

At this moment, in front of the leader of the village, this black guy has no respect and no courtesy. He has completely lost his noble face.

Zhu Gui's face tightened, his mouth trembled up and down, and he was filled with regret, why did he recommend this black guy to the mountain?

Zhang Zhengdao joked: "Brother Zhu Gui, you, a fellow countryman, are quite interesting."

Zhu Gui stood up quickly and replied awkwardly: "This black guy doesn't know anything about his rank. Please forgive me, the leader of the village."

Li Kui then shouted: "Tieniu is a rough man, don't dislike him, brother, the leader of the village."

Zhang Zhengdao said with a straight face: "If you want to stay and have a big bowl of wine, you must follow the rules of the village."

"If you can't stand the rules of the village, I will drive you down the mountain at the least, and cut off your bird's head at the worst." Zhang Zhengdao shouted.

Li Kui didn't take it seriously and just shouted: "As long as you give me food and wine, I will do anything you want."

Zhang Zhengdao waved his hand for him to continue drinking, and ignored the black guy. Instead, he walked to Wen Huanzhang's side and whispered: "Military advisor, there are some things that need to be discussed."

Wen Huanzhang said: "I know what the leader of the village is worried about, and I have discussed some matters with leader Wang Lun."

Zhang Zhengdao smiled and said: "In that case, let's talk to the side."

Wen Huanzhang replied: "I will go and invite leader Wang Lun."

Zhang Zhengdao nodded, and then said to the leaders who were still drinking in the Juyi Hall: "I have something to discuss with the military advisor, so I will stay with you for a while while you wait for my brother and eat first."

Everyone put down their wine bowls and shouted: "Brother, the leader of the village, is busy first."

Zhang Zhengdao stepped out of Juyi Hall, looked at the sky for a while in the square in front of the hall, and then waited until Wen Huanzhang and Wang Lun came out one after another.

"Master of the village, please come this way." Wang Lun led the way, leading Zhang Zhengdao and Wen Huanzhang to sit in a side room next to them.

After the minions served three cups of tea soup and closed the door, Wen Huanzhang finally said, "The village leader wants to discuss the rules in the village?"

Zhang Zhengdao smiled and nodded, saying: "Yes, the number of people in our village is increasing day by day. If there are no rules, it will be difficult to grow."

Wang Lun replied: "The military advisor had previously discussed with Xiao Keluo and set a few rules, and asked the leader of the village to review them."

The scholar in white took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Zhang Zhengdao.

After taking it, he read it carefully and Zhang Zhengdao said with satisfaction: "A great military advisor!"

Wen Huanzhang smiled and said: "It was all negotiated with Chief Wang, so I don't dare to take credit."

Zhang Zhengdao glanced at Wang Lun. The scholar always had a smile on his face, making it difficult to tell what was going on in his heart.

"In this case, we will first promulgate three rules for the village. First, all members of our village are not allowed to drink alcohol or gamble. Anyone who violates the rules will be punished with thirty sticks. Anyone who still disobeys the order more than three times will be beheaded!" Zhang Zhengdao said solemnly.
"Secondly, you must not commit adultery, plunder, or kill innocent people indiscriminately. Those who disobey orders will be beheaded!"

"Third, those who do not respect the orders of the copycat will be killed!"

Three slashes in a row, full of murderous intent!

Wen Huanzhang smiled and said: "If the leader of the village achieves a big event, he must first strictly enforce the military order, and the orders must be carried out, and the top and bottom are of the same mind."

Zhang Zhengdao solemnly said: "Brother Wang Lun, later on, post these three rules everywhere in the village, and order people to read them loudly for ten days. Be sure to let everyone in Liangshan know these three rules. From today on,

Strictly enforce the rules. If anyone knows the rules and still disobeys them, he will be killed!"

Wang Lun felt a chill in his heart, stopped smiling, and said respectfully: "Xiao Ke, let's do it now."

After Wang Lun left in a hurry, Zhang Zhengdao took a sip of fragrant tea and said with a smile: "The military advisor is here, which is really beyond my expectation."

Wen Huanzhang smiled and said: "After the separation in the thatched cottage that day, Wen asked a friend to find out. What the village owner said was true. The imperial court had plans to regain the sixteen states of Yanyun. Otherwise, Cai Jing would not be like this."

The phase will be restored soon."

"Joining the Jurchens to destroy the Liao Dynasty is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger, which will lead to disaster sooner or later." Zhang Zhengdao sighed.

Wen Huanzhang agreed: "The village leader's concern is also what Wen Mou thought in his heart. Our army in the Song Dynasty is weak and it is really difficult for us to coexist peacefully with the uncivilized barbarians."

"Song and Liao have been in conflict for hundreds of years, but they can live in peace. This is related to the Liao people's pursuit of sinicization. If the neighboring country was replaced by a barbaric tribe without writing and ignorance of etiquette, it would be a shocking change." Zhang Zhengdao thought of the shame of Jingkang, and still felt

It’s a matter of regret.

Fortunately, there was still plenty of time. Zhang Zhengdao took out a piece of paper from his arms, spread it out on the table, pointed at one of the places and said, "I want to take this place."

Wen Huanzhang lowered his head and glanced at it, a huge wave surged in his heart. He looked at Zhang Zhengdao with a calm face again, and after calming down his breath, he said: "The leader of the village is indeed a man of great courage."<

/p>

Zhang Zhengdao smoothed out the map according to his memory and said slowly: "This 800-mile water park is only more than 400 miles away from Bianliang, Tokyo. If there are more than 10,000 soldiers, I am afraid that it will attract the power of the entire country.

Encirclement and suppression, even if the imperial army can be defeated, will be in vain. If Zhao Guanjia becomes ruthless and only sends a large army to surround 800 miles of water, it will kill Liangshan. By then, there will be no other way except Zhao'an.

."

"So the leader of the village wants to jump out of the trap and jump into the sea!" Wen Huanzhang continued.

"Yes, I am determined to open up this place, immigrate to farm, and then slowly work on it." Zhang Zhengdao suddenly felt heroic in his chest, and said seriously: "I also ask the military advisor to help me!"

Wen Huanzhang pondered for a moment and said: "If the leader of the village wants to plot this place, his top priority is to build a navy that is not afraid of wind and waves."

Zhang Zhengdao nodded and said: "Yes, although we have two naval armies in Liangshan, they are still reluctant to hang out in this water moor. There are many storms and waves on the sea. If one is not careful, the ship will be destroyed and everyone will be killed, and no armor will be left.

You must be cautious."

Wen Huanzhang's heart was moved, he frowned and thought for a moment, and then said: "There is a shipping company on Jingdong East Road in Mizhou. There are many maritime merchants coming and going there. It is better to recruit some experienced boatmen to train our copycat sailors."

Zhang Zhengdao thought for a while and said: "This is the only way. This time I brought five hundred taels of gold back to the mountain, which is enough to buy two sea ships. When the manpower is mature, I can choose a day to go to sea."
