Water Margin official

Bao Xu, the "lost keeper" of Kushu Mountain, turned out to be the thief who robbed the Zhang family of several carts of medicinal materials in the wild boar forest of Kaide Prefecture.

This group of thieves has been robbing and killing people in Guancheng, Damingfu and Kouzhou on Hebei East Road, and finally fled to Kushu Mountain, where Luo Cao became a bandit.

At this moment, the lights in the thatched cottage of Kushu Mountain Dazhai are bright.

Zhang Zhengdao sits on the tiger-skin chair in the center with his golden sword.

After cleaning, there was no smell of blood in the hall, and Bao Xu's body was also carried down and buried.

"Have all the brothers from Liangshan entered the village?" Zhang Zhengdao asked.

Wen Zhongrong replied: "Everyone has entered the village and guarded the village gate, granary, warehouse and other places."

Zhang Zhengdao looked at the shadowy Dead Tree Mountain gangsters outside the thatched hall, frowned and thought for a moment, and then ordered: "Separately screen these people. Anyone who has done extremely sinful things will be taken to the back mountain and dealt with quietly."< /p>

After Wen Zhongrong went to Liangshan, he knew the rules of the village, "doing justice for heaven", "rewarding the good and punishing the evil". It was not just words. Anyone who had done heinous things and didn't know the inside story of Liangshan, before If you come to Toushan, the leader of the village will really order people to pull him down and kill him.

After hesitating for a moment, Wen Zhongrong replied: "Zhao Master, this matter has not lasted for three or five days, I'm afraid it will be difficult to distinguish clearly."

Zhang Zhengdao smiled and said: "Leave this matter to that Wang Laobao. He knows best who has done evil things and only kills those who have done evil things."

Wen Zhongrong clasped his fists and accepted the order, and asked: "Fortress leader, are the remaining people going to be taken back to Liangshan?"

Zhang Zhengdao shook his head and said: "The remaining people will continue to occupy this place and it will be regarded as a branch of Liangshan."

"As for who should be left to run the business here, let me think about it carefully." Zhang Zhengdao just had a rough idea in his mind.

At this time, Min Gong entered the thatched hall with a happy expression on his face and called out: "Master of the village, after preliminary inspection, I am afraid that there are no less than 50,000 guan of money, more than 80 good horses, and more than 1,000 stones of grain in this village. ”

Zhang Zhengdao sighed and said: "This Bao Xu was able to rob so much money and food in a short period of time, which shows how many deaths the people around him suffered during the business trip."

Wen Zhongrong was also moved. Previously, he, Cui Ye, and Min Gong gathered seventy or eighty people in Baodu Mountain. Although they usually robbed passing merchants, they had never robbed so much money and food.

This shows the cruelty and bloodthirsty of this "lost keeper" Bao Xu!

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Zhang Zhengdao ordered: "You two and that Wang Laoba will first identify the most evil people, and quietly take them to the back mountain to chop them down. Do it carefully and don't let these people notice."< /p>

"As for the remaining people, collect their weapons and rush back to their rooms for custody. We'll talk about it tomorrow." Zhang Zhengdao stretched himself, feeling a little tired.

Wen Zhongrong and Ni Gong took the order and went.

Zhang Zhengdao stood up, walked to the back of the thatched hall, found a clean bedroom, called four mountain attackers to guard it, went inside, took off his mask, and fell asleep.

After sleeping until daybreak, I opened the door and found that the soldiers guarding outside had already been replaced by four people.

"Master, do you want to freshen up?" one of them asked.

"Go get some water." Zhang Zhengdao ordered.

After a simple wash, Zhang Zhengdao came to the thatched hall. The minions in the village had already prepared meals, brought them up, and placed them one by one on the table.

After a simple meal, Wen Zhongrong, Ni Gong, and that Wang Laobao entered the hall and clasped their fists in greeting.

Wang Laoba's legs were trembling at this moment, and he did not dare to look directly at Zhang Zhengdao. He remembered that he was in the back mountain last night, but he killed more than 20 people in a row.

The owner of Liangshan Park is really a "devil king" who kills without blinking an eye!

"How many people are left in Dry Tree Mountain?" Zhang Zhengdao took a sip of water and asked.

Wen Zhongrong replied: "In addition to the eighteen people who were sent down the mountain to borrow food but did not come back, there are still two hundred and thirteen people left."

Zhang Zhengdao nodded and ordered: "After the children have eaten their fill, take all the money and horses in the village back to Liangshan. As for the thousand stones of food, stay here."

"Brother Nie Gong, I want to keep you here and organize these more than two hundred men into an army. After a while, I will send someone to replace you."

Ni Gong had already known the village leader's plan from Wen Zhongrong, and immediately shouted: "My little brother takes the order."

Zhang Zhengdao glanced at the cowering Wang Laoba and shouted: "Wang Laoba, please spare your life and serve as a deputy to the leader Ni Gong. If you are half-hearted, I will kill you together."

The man's knees weakened and he knelt on the ground and shouted: "Fortress owner, please spare your life. I will definitely help the leader to take care of things in the village."

"Get up!" Zhang Zhengdao saw that something was going on here, and waved to the three of them to go down and get busy.

After loading all the 50,000 yuan into the cart and leaving ten good horses for Ni Gong to use for sending messages, Zhang Zhengdao took Wen Zhongrong with him, along with one hundred attacking troops and one hundred and seventy horses.

Horse, hurry back to Liangshan.

The sun and the moon fly like a shuttle, and time flies like an arrow!

We didn't disturb the state capital along the way, we just rode fast. After four or five days, we returned to the Dongshan Hotel at the foot of Liangshan Mountain.

It was already winter weather, everyone's clothes were thin, and some cold air entered their bodies.

When Zhang Zhengdao stepped into the store, the waiter recognized his owner and hurriedly ran forward to greet him.

"Where is leader Zhu Gui?" Zhang Zhengdao asked.

The shop assistant replied: "We'll do the counting in the backyard. I'll go call Leader Zhu right now."

Before the waiter could move his legs, Zhu Gui had already walked quickly into the lobby. Just then, people and horses neighed outside, and the loud noise had already alerted him.

Zhu Gui was overjoyed when he saw the leader of the village coming back. He rushed forward and bowed, saying, "My dear brother, I sincerely welcome the leader of the village back to the mountain."

Zhang Zhengdao smiled and said: "We are all brothers. There is no need to be polite. Let's go and fire arrows, call in navy ships, and ferry the men and horses across the water."

Zhu Gui took the order and went, only listening to the sound of trumpets and arrows. After waiting for a while, the Liangshan Clippers docked.

The men on the small boat heard that the leader of the village had many troops and horses and needed to be transported by a large ship, so they turned around and rowed to the Shannan water village to report to leader Ruan Xiaoer, who was training the navy.

Ruan Xiaoer was overjoyed when he heard that the leader of the village had returned to the mountain. He ordered all the passenger and cargo ships under his command to sail towards the Dongshan Hotel.

After the ship docked, Ruan Xiaoer entered the lobby, laughed at Zhang Zhengdao and said, "Master, you want to harm me!"

Zhang Zhengdao was eating hot soup when he saw that this man was still opening his clothes and exposing his chest in the cold weather, showing no fear of the cold.

"Brother Ruan, eat some hot soup." Zhang Zhengdao put down the big bowl in his hand.

Ruan Xiaoer greeted Wen Zhongrong again, sat down next to them, and took a sip of hot soup.

After the three of them ate the hot soup, Zhu Gui came in and reported: "Master of the village, the troops and horses have all boarded the boat and can return to Dazhai."

Zhang Zhengdao stood up and left the lobby, but saw four large ships lined up on the shore. One hundred soldiers, one hundred and seventy horses, and fifty thousand pieces of money were already waiting on board.

Ruan Xiaoer took the initiative to introduce: "The Navy has recently added some large and small ships. The four 2,000-ton sea-going ships purchased in Mizhou will be transferred from Beiqing River to the village in a few days."
Zhang Zhengdao asked: "What about the waterway of Beiqing River? Is it possible for these thousands of ships to be navigable?"

Ruan Xiaoer replied: "My little brother has already sent people to find out clearly. Even a ship with five thousand materials can sail smoothly."

Zhang Zhengdao was overjoyed and said: "When the sea ship arrives, let's first ask the sailors to go out on the sea. After they become familiar with the wind and waves on the sea, they can go out to sea and lay a foundation for my village."

p>

Ruan Xiaoer shouted: "I will definitely live up to the great trust of the village master."

Wen Zhongrong and Zhu Gui stood aside, but they didn't know what they meant. But when they heard the words "Go to sea and build a foundation", their hearts surged. They didn't expect that the village owner would actually

I want to go on an overseas expedition.
