Shi Chuan thought about it, suddenly laughed and said, "I heard that they robbed the rich and helped the poor..."

Shi Chuan said this and surprised everyone. If everyone hadn't known in advance that Shi Chuan had bumped into each other with a Liangshan hero and broke up very unfriendly, maybe everyone would have questioned Shi Chuan's identity.

A little recession, a little landlord interrupted despicablely: "I'm afraid it's 'rift' of others, and it's 'poor' to help others' poverty? Every time the Liangshan people go down the mountain to rob, they always grab their treasures back to the mountain, and live a life of eating meat and drinking big bowls. In addition to taking care of themselves, who else can they help others to get the poverty?"

As soon as he said this, Shi Chuan wanted to kiss the other party. He paused and immediately said, "I heard that they were robbing them of 'for wealth and unkind'?"

The little landlord was like Shi Chuan's arrangement. He said question and answer: "What is 'being rich and unkind'? Who sets the standard for 'being rich and unkind'? Who will confirm that others are 'being rich and unkind' - the thief just shouts to catch the thief."

Seeing that the eyes of the surroundings looking at him became more and more unkind, Shi Chuan smiled and stopped making fun of people: "That's, robbery, and they are said to be forced to rob with a reason - without reason, they create reasons. No, this world cannot regard robbery as axiom as the norm. If the robbery is admitted to be justified, then no one can guarantee that their property will not be infringed.

Yes, Liangshan people always robbed under the banner of "being rich and unkind". They did not rob the other party as "being rich and unkind". They always made some legends like chickens crowing in the middle of the night to show the legitimacy of their robbery. But when they got rich from robbery, they only thought that they were nobles and needed to enjoy it. Their children were also "second generations of nobles". They must not let the common people share their robbery results...

According to the usual style of Liangshan people, they fled into Haizhou and were about to have enough robbed them at this time. They may have retracted into the temporary nest to enjoy the results of the robbery. Or they have not yet robbed enough, so we can force them to retract - how many Liangshan bandits are in total? The reason why these people can roam Shandong is because of horse speed and everyone is in danger. If everyone joins hands to protect their families, we have more people than them. If we make each family a stumbling block to robbers, then even if the robbers are so great, wise and correct, he can only retract his nest and eat himself."

Another little landlord on the table exclaimed loudly with the intention of drinking: "Shi Cheng, I know, Shi Dalang, Haizhou, has more than a dozen sisters in his family, each of whom is like a flower and a jade, and he knows the stewards of words and is very famous. Now it seems that his words are powerful and powerful, and he deserves it."

Shi Chuan smiled and said, "My reputation is not because of my many girls, but because of my fists. You should know that I used to be a general in Haizhou, and now I am the head coach of the Wuxiang Tuan Training Group... The most important thing is that I am the major shareholder of the famous Duan Blacksmith House in Haizhou City.

The whispering sounds roaring while sitting. Shi Tong's face was filled with a smile that showed eight teeth when a merchant was selling goods. After everyone digested his words, he waved to Yi'er to present a simple knife, and then recommended to all landlords with a simple smile: "Duan's iron knife, the sharpness of the sharpness is nothing. You must know that Duan Xiaopiao's scissors in Haizhou are no worse than Zhang Xiaoquan's scissors in Hangzhou. And Duan Xiaopiao's scissors are better than Zhang Xiaoquan's scissors when they twisted the iron.

Duan’s iron knife is made of steel fire that makes scissors. This kind of iron knife can also cut gold like mud... Don’t believe it, I will demonstrate it to you here... People will stack ten copper plates together."

There is a passage in "Water Margin" about "Yang Zhi selling swords", and it is said that Yang Zhi did have experience of selling swords - after Hua Shigang sank, the other commanders were afraid of the court's investigation, so they hid themselves first, and then publicly recommended their leader, and all commanders Yang Zhi went to Beijing to engage in activities. Yang Zhi fell ill on the way and spent all the bribery money collected by the commanders. He had to sell swords to collect travel expenses. As a result, he had a conflict with the city hooligans, and killed people in anger, and was arrested and imprisoned by the local magistrate.

Later, the other commanders waited for Yang Zhi to be heard from him and sent Sun Li to the capital. Sun Li found Yang Zhi who was serving his sentence on the way. However, at this time, the commanders had already emptied the official bag and could not redeem Yang Zhi, so Sun Li had to continue to go to the capital - he had no money in his pocket and of course he could not operate the matter of eliminating the crime. So after Sun Li came back, he notified the other commanders and robbed Yang Zhi and went to Liangshan. Yang Zhi was also notified the matter of robbing Yang Zhi and went to Liangshan because of the poor doing this. He was originally the leader of the commanders, so he had to give way to his deputy, and the other commander Li Jinyi (i.e. Lu Junyi in the Romance).

In ancient times when entertainment lacked, Shideng looked like a show-off, and everyone was enthusiastic in support. However, when Liu Kuang saw it, he looked like a street stall, and pretended not to know him, he held Eleventh Lady's hand and turned to another table to toast.

At the shouts of everyone, ten "Zhenghe Tongbao" were stacked. The words on these copper coins were written in "Song style". They were exquisitely cast and concise. They were a rare treasure in the collection of coins. Shideng took a breath, raised his Pu Knife and waved it casually. He heard a sharp cry that made people sour, and the ten copper coins that fell together were split in half like lightning.

Shi Chuan threw down the knife casually and laughed. The tenants in Liujiazhuang were very supportive and hurriedly went up to pick up the Pu Dao, gently placed it on the tray, and showed the little landlords the blade of the Pu Dao to the wine tables one by one.

He cut off ten copper plates in one breath, and the blade was not curled at all. It was probably sold by the Liangshan hero Yang Zhi. This quality knife can be used to train with each other.

After displaying the product functions, Shiteng added: "If this kind of knife is not covered with a scabbard... Well, if the handle of the knife is also home and you will find the carpenter to install and configure it yourself, then, just the blade body will be sold for three sprigs of money."

According to legend, Yang Zhi sold his sword and shouted that the price was thirty cents, which is 30,000 yuan. When he wore this sword, he only sold it for 3,000 yuan. In the eyes of most landlords, he was indeed losing money and gaining publicity. Therefore, when he heard this price, the villagers present bowed to Liu Kuang and his wife, as if thanking the Liu family for being able to talk about their in-laws and sell weapons to everyone in batches at such a discount.

A small landlord spoke out: "Now that Liangshan gangs are surging, we need this kind of weapon now - Chengxinlang, how do you transport weapons from Haizhou?"

Liu Taigong, who has been in close consultation with others, appeared. It seemed that the secret talk had ended. Liu Taigong surrounded him. Liu Taigong spoke first: "My Liu family sent five hundred strong soldiers. Follow Chengxin to Shuyang County at any time to say hello. After notifying Huang County, Chengxin Lang led the Zhuang Ding of my Liu family back to Haizhou to transport weapons here. If you are willing, you can send a few servants to accompany you."

Now, the Shuyang landlords' armed forces were finally willing to take out their power. At the banquet, many small landlords stretched their necks and shouted that among them, only ten Zhuang Dians and one cart were released; those who contributed more, they dispatched hundreds of Zhuang Dians and dozens of large carts were deployed in one breath, intending to follow and move through the action at any time.

If the heroes of Liangshan were still staying in Shuyang this night, they would find that their range of activities was much smaller overnight. Each village began to light torches and increase guards. The villages sounded gongs to warn each other and helped each other. At the same time, countless villager guards drove to Liujiazhuang with torches overnight. When the next day dawn, at least 5,000 people gathered in Liu Taigong's manor.

The Liu family in Shuyang has been fighting since Shizhan, and it seems to have a backbone. This day was the third day of the wedding. It was supposed to be the day when Eleventh Lady "returned to the door for three dynasties", but there was no wedding banquet on this day. Everyone was busy with four feet. Shizhan was busy reorganizing the troupe training. He trained the troupe that he came overnight into dozens of 100 teams, and sent them out one by one to explore the four realms and find traces of Liangshan people. In fact, it was integrating the team and making the team organized.

Eleventh Lady, accompanied by Liu Kuang, met with the six housekeepers of the Liu family, counted the family wealth, was familiar with the housework of the Liu family, and was so busy that she didn't even have a bite of food at noon.

After noon, Shiteng's large-scale search operation finally attracted the attention of Shuyang City. In the afternoon, half of the door was opened in the county town. Facing the Shi Taigong Manor, the people in the city began to go out to collect firewood, and the grain outside the city began to be sent into the city, and some people began to tentatively leave the city and enter the city. At this time, the county magistrate who had been attending the wedding of Eleventh Lady and hung up the city wall from the hanging basket, was able to rush to the Liujia Manor from the gate of the city.

After hearing that the Secretary Zhang arrived, Liu Kuang went out to greet him in person. The Secretary Zhang was worried about the news of the Liangshan gangsters. Before Liu Kuang finished his greeting, he hurriedly asked: "Is there any news about the Liangshan gangsters?"

Liu Kuang was stunned for a moment. During this period, he had been with his wife to take over housework. He couldn't figure out what Shi Chuan was doing. Therefore, he had to guide the secretary Xiang Shi Chuan's location: "Haizhou Shi Dalang is responsible for this matter. Lord Jian, please go here."

The secretary was named Jian. He was guided by Liu Kuang to the largest living room in the manor. Before entering the living room, he saw teams of training in the yard scattered and closed under the command of the captain, as if in formation. The captains were all wearing the strange gray uniform of Cui Zhuang Tuan.

"This is Chengxinlang who teaches everyone is familiar with the order." Liu Kuang's feet did not stop and introduced: "Chengxinlang said: Liangshan gang is a horse bandit, and he acted quickly. If he did not form a formation to fight, no matter how many people there were, he would be scattered by the war horses. So he taught everyone to distinguish left and right, disperse according to the order, and the formation of Zou Xing's army. Ah, the captains he taught were all trained by Cui Zhuang, and they were most familiar with the orders."

Lord Jian didn't stop at his feet and asked casually: "So, what about the people sent out? Are they trained?"

"No, the people left behind are all selected, and those sent out are eliminated. They just rely on their familiarity and let them go around and visit each other's relatives," Liu Kuang replied, pausing for a moment, and he said helplessly: "I don't understand at this time. Please ask Chengxinlang, Lord Secretary."

Lord Jian stepped onto the threshold of the reception room, turned around and looked at the team scattered in the yard, and followed Liu Kuang into the reception room.

In the reception room, several square tables were made up into a huge table. A large piece of white silk was covered with painted on it, and some mountains, rivers were roughly drawn with paintings. The terrain was recognized by Master Jian, which was the topographic map of Shuyang County.

I often hear that I have good painting skills and have a high appreciation for painting... Lord Jian took a closer look and found that the map he drew was really similar. Not only did he show the trend of mountains, rivers, but the nearby villages were also small and realistic.

I saw that there were many tea bowls on this picture. Shi Chuan was holding his chin around the table with his hands. There were Shi Taigong and two or three retired officials in the room. They asked from time to time: "What's going on, what's going on."

At the previous wedding, Lord Jian met Shi Chuan. Going forward, the magistrate Huang Xiang often sent people to Haizhou, nominally visiting his wife and children, and moving back from Haizhou some gifts, novel foods, fruit wine, etc. But in fact, it was to visit the situation of the road construction army and explore the progress of the Huang family's tea mountain. This job is the most popular in the county government. If you go this trip, Shi Chuan gives it at hand, you often get a lot of gifts. Shi Family's meals are also famous for a variety of styles. There are more senior officials (from the state) who come to Shi Family Garden. Let's go this trip first, just as a leisure trip. Not only do you need to worry, but you can bring a large number of small commodities produced by Cuizhuang when you come back, and buy it casually, which is more profitable than growing vegetables in the county government.

Lord Jian has traveled twice, and Shideng twice when he saw him in Cuizhuang and Haizhou City. However, it was obvious that both sides were not very familiar. Lord Jian walked in, Shideng did not deliberately greet him. He nodded slightly at Lord Jian, and then stared at the map again.

Lord Jian came for business, and he was not polite. When he approached, he stood side by side and stared at the map and asked, "Have you found out about them yet?"

Shi Chuan nodded and continued to remain silent. Lord Jian asked, "How did you do it?"

When Lord Jian asked this, Shi Chuanben didn't want to answer, but at this time, Eleventh Lady came in with the account book. She first saluted Mr. Liu, then greeted her husband Liu Kuang, and walked to Shi Chuan silently, staring at the map, showing a questioning expression - it seemed that everyone in the room had the same doubts, but everyone was deliberately pretending to be reserved and waiting for Shi Chuan to explain.

Well, just teach everyone a solution to the problem - mainly to teach Eleventh Lady.

Shi Chuan took a spear as a teaching stick, and pointed at the map with the tip of the gun and asked Eleventh Lady: "I once taught you how to simplify complex problems. All the process of solving problems is a coordinated learning problem. There is a problem in front of us: we only have a few unobedient villagers on hand, how should we use them?"

Eleventh Lady showed a look of memories. She started from scratch with Shideng, worked in the balm and fragrant pan workshop, managed shops, and prepared luggage shops. When she knew Shideng’s methods to deal with problems, she replied in contemplationly: “Split the business segments and divide them into small parts within each person’s ability, and then, she wanted employees to do what they like to do.”

"What do the village ministers who have been besieging the city in Shuyang for many days and don't obey them very much?" Shi asked in a hurry.

"Traveling the home——" Eleventh Lady took a deep breath and replied: "I understand that my brother divided Shuyang County into several areas, so that the townsmen with relatives gathered together, and designated them to visit a certain area——which area must be the place where the townsmen of the team have the most relatives. If they can find their relatives, they will naturally send the complete news back."

The person inside the house suddenly realized, but Shi Chuan still refused to let go, and continued to question: "Now, there are methods, and we should consider unexpected events that affect the implementation of the measures - there are Liangshan gangs outside. How to ensure that the township managers are willing to go out, ensure that the township managers who go out are not scared back by Liangshan gangs, and ensure that they send back the real news?"

"This is the details-" Eleventh Niang replied confidently: "For example, it is stipulated that the horns and whistles of each team are made to distinguish them from each other. This method of distinction must be simple and easy to use; after the township department goes out, they only let them move where they are willing to go. If they encounter bandits, then blow the whistle or horn to inform each other of the enemy situation; and, the adjacent teams of township department sent out must make them care about each other, such as having an older brother in Team A and a younger brother in Team B. In this way, after encountering bandits, they are not allowed to support each other and help each other..."

The people in the room nodded one after another, and Liu Kuang quickly held Eleventh Niang's little hand and gently pinched it to show intimacy and encouragement. Liu Taigong laughed with satisfaction: "That's right, your brother sent thirty teams of men, all of which were all assigned. Now they have sent back the news, but there is still no trace of Liangshan's gangsters."

Eleventh Lady approached the table, pointed to the tea bowls on the table, and asked, "Are those tea bowls marked as being in place?"

Shi Chuan pointed at the tea bowls with his gun tip and replied: "I sent 30 teams of townships, with a total of about 3,000 people. Now, except for the farthest villages, most townships have reported that no Liangshan gangsters have been found."

Eleventh Lady observed the tea bowl. She knew that this was Shi Chuan's chance to show her, so she analyzed calmly: "My brother sent fifteen teams of men in the southwest direction - Liangshan bandits came from Luoma Lake in the southwest direction. They must have moved along the canal. If they returned to the nest, there would be no news from them on the way, so they never returned to the lake.

From then on, my brother sent five teams of troops - if the Liangshan gangsters continue to walk along the river, or cross the river and go to the south bank, Shuyang will be safe. We can set up alerts along the river. Once the other party stepped on the river, my brother can use group training and force it into the river..."

Eleventh Lady said this, full of confidence in wearing force at the moment. The people in the house looked at each other for a moment, and they all asked and refuted.

"Brother, where is the farthest team in the north as the end?"

"Houqiu Town - When we came, we encountered Liangshan gangs near Houqiu Town. Later, we walked around the town... If Liangshan gangs gave up Houqiu Town, it means..."

Shi Chuan turned his gaze to Han Shan and gave Eleven Niang full hint. Eleven Niang took a deep breath and concluded in surprise: "Did they go to the beach - to Haizhou? Their focus is Haizhou."

The people present all breathed a sigh of relief, probably because they were glad that Shuyang finally rescued the siege. Then, they turned their eyes to Shi Chuan, waiting for the latter's affirmation. Shi Chuan thought about it and shook his head gently: "Liangshan, Liangshan, they are likely to turn to Hanshan now. Who knows whether they will regard Hanshan as another Liangshan and use it as a base to occupy the mountain as the king..."

This speculation made everyone look heavy. Oh my God, if this group of horse bandits roaming in Shandong takes Hanshan as their base, the people of Shuyang will be extremely prosperous.

"What should I do if that is good?" Liu Taigong murmured.

Shi Chuan noticed that the secretary's face was very strange, and he quickly asked: "Sir, how about the weapons in the county arsenal?"

Lord Jian never greeted the magistrate's wife and children as usual. At this time, when he heard Shi Chuan's question, he smiled bitterly and replied: "Shuyang County is not a 'jun town', it is just a second-class county, with only about 50,000 or 60,000 people in the city. Moreover, there has been no war here for more than a hundred years. The swords stored in the arsenal have been covered with rust, most of the guns are moldy, and all the bows and crossbows are useless.

What's even more bitter is that the blacksmiths in Shuyang County are not good at it, and there is no iron in the workshop, so we can't even get enough temporary weapons. The magistrate is now collecting iron pots, iron hoes, and shovels, and preparing to make weapons..."

Under the monopoly of salt and iron, the law prohibits the blacksmith workshop from stocking too much raw materials and prohibits private storage of more than fifty deputy soldiers. Otherwise, it will be a serious crime of treason for nine clans. Therefore, the workshop materials in Shuyang County are not enough, which is also inevitable under the law.

Shi Chuan thought about it and asked again: "I heard that the county also has a pile sealing warehouse, which stores pile sealing money (strategic reserve funds). On that day, Zhang Dayin used the pile sealing warehouse. According to the law, in this situation where troops are at the city, local officials have the right to use the pile sealing warehouse - Lord Jian, please ask the magistrate to order the iron pots in the city to collect the iron pots in the city, order the coal cake shop and charcoal firewood shop in the city to control the materials for burning fire, and order the blacksmith shop to open the furnace and smuggle iron... If the common people have any losses, they will be compensated by the pile sealing money."

Shuyang County is a second-class county. Such counties do not have a magistrate, only the magistrate, county magistrate, and chief clerk. The young officials are very likely to make decisions. Now Liangshan River gangs are scattered outside the city, and many villages and towns are broken, and farmers dare not go to the fields to plow in spring. If this situation continues, these three officials will not have good performance. If they are not done well, their career will end here. If Liangshan River gangs attack the city...

In this case, even though Zhang Shuye was blamed by the court for using the money for sealing piles, Shuyang officials nodded without hesitation: "The magistrate can issue an order immediately. This is just a trivial matter, but... Dalang, there is a situation that you should know, no matter what Shuyang is like, we cannot have reinforcements."

"What?" the people in the house exclaimed in unison.

Lord Jian glanced at the room and said slowly: "Three days ago, the news came that the 'Amitabha Buddhism', or the 'Manichi' religion, was rebelled. Their leader was named Fang La. At present, tens of thousands of people have gathered to defeat the general Cai Zun of Xikeng. Last year, Qingxi was captured, and the troops are facing Mu, Shezhou...

This was last year, but the police reported to the capital, and Wang Fu hid not to hear it, so the fierce flames burned. It is reported that there were Zhu Yanwu Bang, a bandit in Lingshan, Qiu Dao Ren in Shan County, Lu Shinang, Chen Shisi of Fangyan Mountain, Shisheng of Suzhou, and Xinger in Gui'anlu, and even a major earthquake in the southeast. This news was hidden for a long time. Three days ago, a merchant from Hangzhou fled from the canal to Shuyang and told the magistrate that Wang Fu (in power) is not allowed to discuss this matter, but..."
