Chapter 50 He Tao was captured
A small storm was quietly transformed into invisibility by Du Jia, which shocked Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng on the side. Both of them were very smart, but in comparison, Wu Yong was more ambitious and Gongsun Sheng was better at protecting himself. Therefore, in the original plot, Wu Yong was eventually pulled over by Song Jiang and abandoned his elder brother Chao Gai, while Gongsun Sheng couldn't bear to betray Chao Gai. When he saw that the signs were wrong, he found an excuse to go back to his hometown.
To be honest, Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng did have the intention of snatching power after going to Liangshan, and at least they had to increase their voice. He did not believe that Du Jia could have a young show, but after this little conflict, he understood that Du Jia's mind was mature and far older than his age, and he also had generals such as Lin Chong, Shi Jin, Ruan Xiaoqi, who were both capable and loyal to him. It was not easy to replace him.
The two ignored it and whispered a few words quietly. At this time, they saw the difference between the two sides. Gongsun Sheng meant that since Du Jia was a good leader and could take the big responsibility, they would rather help him here and work together to make the copycat. However, Wu Yong was unwilling to accept it and planned to wait for the opportunity again.
At this time, I saw Chao Gai's subordinate Zhuangke coming out to report that the government army was not far from here, with a total of more than 500 people. The leader was to observe He Tao and a sub-road inspector named Zhang Chao. In addition, there were several assistants from the Du Yuhou. More than 100 people led by He Tao were walking in front, less than fifteen miles away.
Everyone stood up when they heard this. Liu Tang was upset and immediately shouted: "Good here, Master is waiting for them. This guy is coming at the right time. Brother Chao, please send an order to welcome the enemy. Kill these guys and urinate them. My big knife is already hungry and thirsty."
Of course, Chao Gai did not give an order, but bowed to Du Jiagong and said, "Mr. Jia, since we have already gone up the mountain, we naturally have to obey the general's orders. Please ask Mr. Jia to give the order."
Du Jia smiled, but turned to Wu Yong and said, "I have heard that the scholarly gentleman is resourceful, just like Kong Ming's rebirth. This time, it's better to let the gentleman arrange it. We are all willing to obey the orders."
Wu Yong could not have expected that Du Jia would admire him so much, and he was quite proud of him. To be honest, he was already deeply stressed out from Du Jia. He was nearly ten years younger than him, but his talent, knowledge and courage were not inferior to him, and he became the leader of a mountain. So now he couldn't wait to show his abilities, so he just refused for a moment and started talking.
After the orders he made a living, he not only arranged the people on Chao Gai's side, but also the leaders from Liangshan. Everyone immediately followed the orders. In the end, only Chao Gai, Wu Yong and Du Jia were the three leaders in the house. Of course, Jiao Ting, as Du Jia's personal bodyguard, has always followed him closely.
When Wu Yong gave the order just now, Du Jia was watching coldly. He found that although Wu Yong was scheming and ambitious, his talent was indeed outstanding, especially when it came to recognize and employ people. Lin Chong and others were only the first time he met him, and he could arrange it according to their specialties. He was indeed a good military advisor. No wonder Song Jiang immediately pulled him over at all costs. Even the three heavenly books of the Xuannv Empress who had raised her identity had to be compiled and said that she must be watched with the "Tianji Xing". It was obvious that he was pulled away from Chao Gai. The poor and honest Chao Gai didn't even notice it!
So Du Jiagong bowed and said to Wu Yong: "Sir, it's really a talent. No matter who is the leader of this copycat, this military advisor is the position of sir. I hope you can give me more advice in the future."
After trying it out, Wu Yong was very proud and was very satisfied with Du Jia's arrangement. At first, he did have the idea of letting Chao Gai take the lead, but now he found that Du Jia also attaches great importance to him, and everyone is a scholar, so many of his views must be similar, which made him suddenly feel that it is good to maintain the status quo.
Here I have to say that Du Jia is smart. He once read a novel in his previous life, saying that sometimes, blindly suppressing or tolerating an important person between competitors and partners is not the best way to do it. The best way is to ask him to help with things, and it is in the field he is good at. In this way, he will feel that you are "seeking" him, and naturally he will feel that you understand him, and thus develop a sense of confidant.
Just like the protagonist in the novel used this method to become a friend of the Yinji Marquis, who was both enemies and friends. Du Jia also tried this method, but he didn't expect the effect to be excellent. He could feel that Wu Yong's hostility and defense towards him were gone all of a sudden. Although he still had a little distance, it was already a world of difference compared to before.
Du Jia and his friends also hurriedly boarded a small boat and headed into the lake. Soon, they saw He Tao, with dozens of public men and more than a hundred outposters, rushed into the village, but they didn't even see a single person. But they saw that all the boats listening to by the river were taken away, and then they went straight to Ruan Xiaoer's house on the water and land. It can be seen that they had done enough time before they came, and were not as incompetent as in the original plot.
After arriving at Ruan Xiaoer's house, they shouted, and more than a dozen people rushed in bravely, but found that it was already an empty room, with nothing but some heavy fires. They had already made a detailed report: "Observe, Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi are living in the lake, and they cannot go there unless the boat."
He Tao discussed with Du Yuhou, who was on the outpost, and said, "There are many small roads in this lake, and the roads are even more complicated. Why not wait until the Zhang team of people arrives before paying attention?"
The Du Yuhou was eager to make contributions and said disdainfully: "Why is Lord He so cautious? There are only more than a dozen thieves. Isn't it ridiculous for us to not dare to capture them? The minister's intention is to go all the way. We will take one of them out, and we will take one pair of them out, and we will make contributions in front of Lord Zhang. If Lord He is afraid, wait for me here. The minister will only take my brothers and don't want your yamen to help."
He Tao was helpless when he heard this, so he had to say, "Since the lord is willing to follow him," Du Yu Hou turned angry and happy. The two of them called out more than a hundred people under him, divided into more than ten small boats, and looked at the place where Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi usually fished deep in the lake. They walked the five-seven miles of waterway, but no one came out.
Nadu Yuhou laughed and said, "Sir He, look, the official said that the thieves had already escaped, so how could they have the courage to fight against the court? We have to speed up, otherwise the credit will fall into the hands of others as soon as they run away."
At this moment, a song suddenly came from the reed marsh. They listened carefully and said:
"Liaoerwa has been fishing for a lifetime, and hemp is not planted without planting mulberry trees.
All the cruel officials and stolen officials were killed, and they were loyal to the Zhao family."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. At this time, they saw a man from afar singing alone in a small boat. Some people recognized that this was Ruan Xiaowu. The man was eager to make contributions. They immediately called people forward and asked a few people who were good at shooting arrows at Ruan Xiaowu. However, when they saw Ruan Xiaowu, they laughed and said, "You are the stolen officials who abuse the people, you are so bold. It would be fine if the master doesn't come to find you, but you dare to do something to do here. Just teach you all to die."
After saying that, Ruan Xiaowu jumped into the water with a somersault, and there was no trace of a waterline. Nadu Hou and his group were only chasing. After a few harbor alleys, they saw a small boat coming around in front. There was a man standing on the bow of the boat, wearing a green hat, a green straw raincoat, holding a long knife in his hand, and singing:
"The master was born in Shijie Village, and he was born to kill people.
First, he took He Tao to inspector, and the capital presented him with King Zhao."
Another shouted, "This person is Ruan Xiaoqi." He Tao and Nadu Yuhou hurriedly asked someone to chase him again. Xiaoqi's boat was just a long pole and a little water was used. The boat immediately flew out of the reed marsh, and it was just running towards Xiaogang Lane.
The officers and soldiers rushed over and saw that the water alley was getting narrower and narrower, and there was no dry road. He Tao hurriedly asked someone to stop and carefully find the way. After finally drawing out the reed marsh, he saw a small island not far away, and there was a person sitting on the shore. He saw a person on the side shore.
After walking with the hoe in the future, He Tao asked, "Who is that man, who are you? What is the place here?" The man replied, "I am the village housekeeper. Here is called Kuantougou, and there is no way."
He Tao said: "Have you ever seen two boats coming?"
The man said, "Aren't you here to catch Ruan Xiaowu?"
He Tao said: "How did you know that they were here to capture Ruan Xiaowu?"
The man said, "They only fight in the Ulin in front."
He Tao said: "How many roads are there?"
The man said, "It's only if you can see it in front."
He Tao heard this and called the boat to pick it up. He then sent two men to come and took a knife and fork to go to the shore. The man picked up his hoe and got his hands on it, and threw the two men into the water, one hoe and one somersault. He Tao was shocked when he saw it. When he jumped up, he was about to go to the shore. The boat suddenly drove away, and a man came up under the water, pulled He Tao's legs and knocked him into the water.
The people in the boat were about to leave, and the hoe was driven onto the boat. One hoe was one, and the head was hit, and the brains were also shot out. He Tao was dragged ashore by the man under the water, so he took off his arms and tied them up. Looking at the man under the water, it was Ruan Xiaoqi; the man carrying the hoe on the shore was Ruan Xiaoer.
Seeing that it was not his head, Du Yuhou had no choice but to laugh at He Tao for his timid words before, and turned around and wanted to take a boat away. Ruan Xiaoqi got on the boat with a light hand. He pulled out a knife and chopped him into the water with just one knife. The remaining officials shouted and fled in all directions. Ruan Xiaoer's brothers led their men to come up and chopped over a dozen more.
