Cry for Song

Chapter 026 Hengzhai

Let Liang Yiyu pretend to be the son of the king. Fortunately, Liang Luoyao could come up with it. Gao Yu couldn't help snorting coldly. Seeing Gao Yu's disdain, Liang Yiyu asked, "What's wrong, Brother Gao feels that there is a question."

Gao Yu shook his head: "Of course, Liang Luoyao told Wang that the son of the king had died, and now there is a son next to the king who can believe it."

Liang Yiqi raised the corners of his mouth slightly and seemed to be a little confident: "That's not necessarily true. At that time, the empress dowager wanted to die, so she said so. Moreover, no one knew that the son next to the king went to Xixia, and then there was no one alive or dead. Who has ever seen the body of the son next to the king?"

Gao Yu's heart was shocked. Yes, his son has always been alive and dead. Isn't he really confused for a moment? Now he is trying to restrain his entangled mood and still said coldly, "It's not easy to talk about the son next to the king. Besides, what's the point? The king has gone so much. It's been a year."

Liang Yibu said, "Brother Gao, you don't know anything. I went to the imperial city this time to get a token. It is said that it was left by the king in those years, and the empress dowager's meaning is that since she can't break the attack, she will take it wisely. This time, the leader is Shen Kuo. As long as he can get his trust, when I figure out the situation of Yongle City, we Xixia will take it. Yongle City is as easy as a palm. He said with a punch, with a look of winning,

Thinking of someone pretending to be his son, Gao Yu's mood can be described as complicated. For such a long time, he has been hiding his identity. In addition to his changes that may not be accepted, there is another reason, that is, his family and friends, whether they are parents and brothers, wives and children. Where is the bottom and what is the situation? At this time, someone pretended to be the son of the king, which was tantamount to adding insult to the name of Wang Anshi and his son's treacherous ministers.

Gao Yu felt that it was necessary to stop this matter. Just as he was about to open his mouth, he heard a sound of footsteps outside the door. Wang Duo's voice reported outside the door: "Your Majesty, we have dealt with it."

"Come in." Liang Yiqi ordered,

Six or seven people came in and saluted Liang Yi and Gao Yu respectively,

Liang Yiyu asked Gao Yu, "Brother Gao, no matter what, I'm going to the imperial city this time. What are your plans for the future?"

Gao Yu took a look at Sha Shiyan and turned to Liang Yifu and said, "The Empress Dowager is indiscriminate, and even the salt gang will not let go. Although I came from Dali and want to form an alliance with Xixia, you also know that I have my own ideas. I won't go to Xingqingfu. I'm going to take my brothers to leave Xixia, maybe Hengshan. There will be a place for us.

Sha Shiyan nodded with approval: "Thank you for your help this time."

Liang Yiyu waved his hand, stopped his words and smiled: "Brothers, don't be polite. The Empress Dowager acted arbitrarily. Alas, let't talk about it, I also have something. Brother Gao, look at this Wang Duo, you can't go back to Liang's army..."

Gao Yu nodded and said, "Wang Duo is also a temperamental person. This time we can go out of the city thanks to him, and this person is a good use of gunpowder. He is a very good talent. I'm also worried that you won't give up."

"If you don't want to, you have to give up, Wang Duo, why don't you hurry to thank Mr. Gao?"

Wang Duo came forward and saluted Gao Yu: "Thank you for your stay. There are great people around you. It's good for me to learn more when I go there."

Gao Yu knew that he was talking about Chen Kang, and everyone talked again. The next day, everyone parted ways: Gao Yu, Sha Shiyan and others hurried to the border of Hengshan while the court had not issued a killing order; while Liang Yibu rushed to the imperial city of Xingqing Mansion to listen to how Liang Luoyao let him pretend to be the son of the king,

From Gao Yu to Xixia to solving the matter of the salt gang, it took about a month. At this time, the border has changed a lot.

Zhao Yu made up his mind to attack Xixia this time. Yongle City is located in the three states of Xia, Yin and You. If this place launches an attack, he will directly attack the Xingqing Mansion of Xixia City. At present, Xu Xi and others lead 25,000 forbidden troops. Jing Siyi has 4,000 forbidden troops, and 40,000 other troops, with a total force of about Seventy thousand people are building the city in full swing. The Xixia army watched Yongle City build it under its eyes but did not dare to act rashly.

When the two armies stared at each other nervously, no one noticed that on the side of the cliff on three sides of Yongle City, hundreds of people had quietly built a small cottage in the dense forest on the cliff.

Now it is June and July, the branches and leaves in the forest are enough to hide, and both the Xixia army and the Song army are staring at the offensive and defensive route. Who will notice the location of hundreds of salt merchants or mountain bandits who have been driven away by the Xixia and Song armies?

Gao Yu followed Sha Shiyan to the cottage. Unexpectedly, in just a few days, it was crowded and orderly. Wu Tong, the internal affairs envoy of the Salt Gang, had been waiting at the village gate when he heard the news. He saw that everyone rushed forward to welcome him: "Mr. Sha, Mr. Gao, the elders have been waiting in the village." With that, a group of people introduced the council hall of the cottage,

The council hall in the cottage is quite full of the smell of Shuibo Liangshan Zhongyi Hall. The front seat is empty, and more than a dozen local masters and elders of the salt gang are sitting on the seats on both sides. They get up and salute one after another.

Sha Shiyan signaled to everyone to be quiet, turned to Gao Yu and said, "Brother Gao, this was originally the stronghold when everyone was a mountain thief and bandit before the salt gang was built. Unexpectedly, it has been used again for more than ten years. At present, the Empress Dowager Liang forced everyone to go to a desperate road. Once the business of the Salt Gang starts, there is no way to do it. "."

"Yes, Mr. Sha, don't worry, we are originally mountain thieves, but your father has been taking care of us for so many years, and we are willing to listen to Mr. Sha." The elder behind him said,

Sha Shiyan smiled bitterly: "How can I do it? I just failed my father's painstaking efforts. Dear elders, I have a proposal: this time, our salt gang got rid of the trouble thanks to Mr. Gao, and Mr. Gao is brave, resourceful and responsible. I decided to follow Mr. Gao. I don't know how everyone's discussion is going."

Gao Yu was happy in his heart, but he also said modestly, "How can I do this?"

"Let me say a few words." A elder came out of the salt gang. He was fifty or sixty years old and stood up with the help of Wu Tong.

Sha Shiyan hurriedly introduced: "Mr. Gao, this Elder Wu Peng is Wu Tong's father and the first leader of the salt gang. It was he who followed his father with the salt gang..."

Wu Peng waved his hand: "It doesn't matter if we didn't mention it back then. In fact, most of us are desperate people. Originally, we were favored by the Sha family. If Mr. Sha elected others, we would not have to follow him even if we broke up, but Mr. Sha recommended Mr. Gao. From the truth, we are convinced. Qi, not only convinced, but also very much like a person. In those years, I followed the remnants of the army to seal the mountain. I couldn't cross the Zhenrong in front. When I turned around, the Zhennanwang Temple was relieved and let us safely return to Xixia. At that time, we really hoped that we were not from Xixia. The kindness of the Zhennan King could not be repaid, but the eyes The former prince does not condescend to the power of the Empress Dowager and is not afraid of the strength of the Song army. We admire him, so we agree to support Mr. Gao as the king.

"Agree, support." The council chamber immediately cheered,

Shi Qian, Zoning, Hu Tieling and others were also exaggerated by this atmosphere. Thinking of the high voice of the people I followed, I couldn't help but be excited and encouraged: "Son, you agree."

Gao Yu gritted his teeth, isn't he a mountain king, but he has power. If he has soldiers, he is better than a prince who has no soldiers and no power. This is the first step for himself to settle down. Anyway, he is stronger than Song Jiang.

"Okay, since everyone recommends it, I, Gao, will not be polite. Brother Sha, the management of the salt gang is orderly, and the management of the cottage will still be handed over to you in the future."

Sha Shiyan took Gao Yu's hand and said, "Brother, thank you for your love. In the future, we don't need the name of the salt gang. Let's make a loud name."

The two of them held hands and walked to the front seat. They turned their height and announced to the crowd: "From today on, we will be called Hengshanzhai. Now I can't promise everyone anything. If you are willing to follow me, we will not follow Xixia or surrender to Song. Let's break into our own world."

Everyone in the council hall cheered for a while, and Gao Yu was also excited. He ordered everyone to sit down: "Let's sit down for the time being. The two kings of this cottage are Brother Sha. As for the salt gang brothers and the later people, let's sort out the secret capital after a while, and everyone is convinced."

"Your Majesty, how do you arrange us to obey?" The people below said,

Gao Yu smiled and said, "We will have everyone's seats according to our achievements." When he spoke, he took a look at Zhang Chang. Everyone was happy for a long time. Only Zhang Chang squeezed his mouth and spoke very little.

Arranged personal work, Zoning took Shiqian to inquire about the surrounding news; Zhang Chang, Weiming Chengsi was responsible for training; Hu Tieling and others were responsible for leading the bodyguard patrol. All links were well prepared under Gao Yu's command and Sha Shiyan's arrangement and mobilization. Gao Yu felt a rare mood. Although Sha Shiyan's martial arts skills were average. The strategy is average, but it is a very good hand with execution and good management.

At this moment, Gao Yu is a little worried about the itinerary of Chen Kang and others. He is more worried about what kind of influence he will bring to his parents once Liang Yiqi pretends to be the son of the king. Thinking of this, Gao Yu can't help but be a little anxious. What kind of tokens Liang Luoyao has in her hand can make Shen Kuo believe that Liang Yiqi is the son of the king. Gao Yu can't figure it out himself,

Outside the study, there was a faint sound of drums, and Gao Yu shouted, "It doesn't grow at all."

Shi Qian blushed and pushed the door in and said, "Sir, it's the last one. I'm not tense."

"You, you don't have to explain to me, just explain it to your master Zoning."

Shi Qian touched his head and smiled: "Son, there is news that Shen Kuo is not in Yongle City at all. I heard that Shen Kuo is still in Yanzhou, and he sent the deputy general manager Qu Zhen to lead 20,000 Song troops to set out, claiming to attack Jialu City."

Jialu City is an important town. If it is taken, it can cooperate with the action of Yongle City. Shen Kuo is really difficult to deal with. The sneak attack is a sneaky thing. He actually advertised to sneak attack. This time he is the coach. It's a big trouble to see Xixia.
