Chapter 12 Living Space

Lu Junyi left. Hebei Yuqilin, who was once powerful, chose a night and left with more than 200 cronies under the silent attention of Liangshan heroes.

Lu Junyi was somewhat surprised by Liang Shan Qunxiong's decision. After all, he was the only one who knew Song Jiang's whereabouts. Now Qunxiong let him go without even asking, which is obviously not that simple.

However, even if you know that there is a problem, you have to follow other people's ideas. This is Yangmou.

Lu Junyi was also afraid of death. He knew that if he stayed in Liangshan for another day, the danger would increase by one point. If it hadn't been for Song Jiang's trump card in his hand, he would have slipped away.

Yan Qing also left, but he didn't go with Lu Junyi. He disappeared as early as the day before Lu Junyi left, but it seemed that his disappearance was related to Song Qing, because someone had seen Song Qing go to Yan Qing. The two talked for a long time, and then Yan Qing disappeared.

I'm afraid only the two of them know what Song Qing talked about with Yan Qing.

Recently, Song Qing has added a problem with a headache. In fact, he also knows that this is just a psychological effect. A person who used to be a shopkeeper makes him face so many things every day. It's no wonder that he is not sick.

Day by, what worried Song Qing and others still happened. Lu Junyi not only didn't get any news, but also disappeared under the close surveillance of Dai Zong. This had to make Song Qing doubt whether Liangshan's spy system could really be pervasive? Or is Dai Zong deliberately releasing water?

At this time, rumors have been slowly spreading in the cottage that the grain and fodder would run out. Fortunately, Liangshan's grain and fodder are under unified management and trading, and there is no hoarding, and there is no chaos at present.

After severely punishing several people who spread rumors, the rumors will be calmed down for the time being, but Song Qing and others know that if this problem is not solved, sooner or later, greater chaos will break out.

The afternoon sun is still hot, and the roasters are dizzy.

At this moment, the rebuilt Song Qing mansion is also deserted. Originally, there were not many people, and at this time, they also hid to escape the summer heat. Only Zhi is still shouting tirelessly.

Song Qing sat on a special soft couch and let Dou Niang's cool little hand rub his temple.

Now everyone in the cottage knows that Lin Dou Niang is Song Qing's most intimate person, and Song Qing is also used to Dou Niang's meticulous care, but Song Qing has not said anything to her since he had a cramp and said that he wanted to marry Dou Niang.

It's not that Song Qing's identity and status have changed, and his ideas have changed. On the contrary, Song Qing is a person who is very serious about emotions. At this moment, he has completely fallen into the net woven by the little girl's heart, but the longer he stays with Dou Niang, the more he dares to say anything to her, because he can't help thinking about the future.

What should Song Jiang do if he suddenly comes back that day? It is said that one mountain does not allow two tigers. Under power, can brothers be an exception?

Even if Song Jiang can't come back, Song Qing dares not marry Dou Niang home with Liang Shan's current situation. Liangshan can develop well. In case of failure one day, won't it involve others?

So Song Qing is very entangled with Dou Niang's problem. However, Dou Niang's mind is not so complicated, as long as she is accompanied by Song Qing. For her, it is her greatest happiness to see Song Qing every day and watch Song Qing eat her elaborate meals. What bothers her is when she can grow up like what the prince said. In her heart, perhaps as long as she becomes like that, the prince will like her more.

Of course, Song Qing didn't know that a joke at that time would have always troubled the little girl. What he was thinking about was how to get through the current difficulties with the Liang Shan brothers.

If you can't buy food, you have to grab it. Song Qing has been thinking about this matter for a long time, but a specific plan has not been formed yet.

There is no food to grab in the nearby states and counties. Of course, ordinary people can't rob them. Not to mention self-destruction, the Liangshan brothers will not agree. Moreover, rabbits still don't eat the grass around the nest. So if you want to grab it, you have to go to a farther state or county.

Song Qing is not familiar with ancient maps. What he knows now is still asked from others. Thinking about Liang Shan's location, Song Qing suddenly remembered something.

Liangshan is known as Shuibo Liangshan, spanning Yunzhou and Jeju. To the east are Yanzhou, Qizhou, Qingzhou, Weizhou, Laizhou and Dengzhou. That is to say, to the east of Liangshan is the modern Shandong Peninsula. The Shandong Peninsula is surrounded by the sea on three sides. In the eyes of ancient people, they may not know anything, but Song Qing knows that it is definitely a treasure.

In modern times, Song Qing heard that the economy of the Song Dynasty was developed, and a large part of the tax revenue came from the market division specializing in marine trade. A few days ago, Song Qing also asked someone, but he heard that the largest city of the Song Dynasty were in Lin'an, Mingzhou and Quanzhou. It seems that there are also Mizhou near Qingzhou, but it is not very famous. Obviously, it is not large.

If you can build a base like Liangshan in Dengzhou, incorporate Mizhou under its banner, take the most advanced shipbuilding industry of the Song Dynasty, and slowly build a fleet with the brothers of Liangshan Village as the base, you can compete for ocean trade from the Song Dynasty and transport grain from the south by sea, then all of Liangshan Aren't all the problems solved?

The so-called not in his position, not in his politics. Song Qing is smart enough, but he is in a different position from before, so there are also great limitations from the perspective of thinking about problems.

It is different now. Although it is the identity of a temporary village owner, the consideration of the problem must be more comprehensive and specific.

You can do it when you think of it, but the base area can't be built. This requires force. When it comes to the use of troops, Song Qing can't make his own decision.

After ordering people to inform the leaders Zhongyitang about the discussion, Song Qing walked to Zhongyitang while further improving his thoughts.

When the sun is in the sky, Song Qing has something to do in his heart. He has no time to take care of the heat of the sun, but the careful Dou Niang can't ignore it. She holds an umbrella and follows Song Qing closely. Song Qing is fast, she is also fast, Song Qing is slow, and she is also slow.

Eight sword guards with strong martial arts followed them. This was carefully selected by Gongsun Sheng and Lin Chong in the 2,000 bodyguard camp. No one dares to ignore Song Qing's safety now, whether they have no problem with their skills or loyalty.

At the beginning, Song Qing didn't realize it. It was not until Zhongyitang was not far ahead that he felt the unique breath of Dou Niang. It was strange that she usually didn't follow her to Zhongyitang. What's wrong with today? Turning his head, he couldn't help feeling heartache and pity. It turned out that in order to prevent him from being roasted by the sun, Dou Niang herself was exposed to the hot sun and held an umbrella to shade Song Qing. Now she is sweaty.

Looking at Dou Niang's slightly embarrassed appearance, Song Qing couldn't help but reach out to close her messy hair and push the umbrella to her head.

"Stupid girl, am I so delicate? Don't do this in the future. You should know how to take care of yourself."

In full view of the public, Dou Niang felt Song Qing's kind behavior. Although she was a little shy, her heart was sweet.

"The prince is a person who does big things, and naturally I have done these small things"

Is I really a big person? Song Qing smiled self-deprecatingly and waved to let Dou Niang go back first. At the same time, he asked her to inform Zhu Fu to prepare more wine and dishes in the evening. He wanted to invite several generals who surrendered from the court to ask them some questions.

Desp, the leaders came quickly after receiving the notice.

Seeing that the leaders had arrived, Song Qing directly talked about the theme after a few simple opening remarks.

"Brothers, our current situation in Liangshan must be clear. What we need now is not only food, but also more living space, otherwise we will be trapped here sooner or later. So my idea is to go east"

Song Qing waved to someone to carry a map he had just made temporarily. Although it was not very specific, the approximate location was marked. What's more surprising was that Song Qing also clearly drew the shape of the Shandong Peninsula, which Liangshan heroes had never seen before.

Wu Yong stood up first and came to the map to take a closer look.

"Erlang means to fight Yanzhou?"

Song Qing nodded, shook again, and drew a straight line from their current position in Liangshan on the map. It crosses Yanzhou, Zhenzhou and Qingzhou in a straight line. Then a large circle was drawn on the land of Victoria, Mizhou, Laizhou, Dengzhou and four states.

As we all know, Liangshanbo is located in one of the sections of Guangji Canal, and Guangji Canal is one of the important canals in Kaifeng. It can be seen that these areas also produce grain. These four states are surrounded by the sea on three sides. Even if we only occupy one of these states, we can gradually encroach on nearby states and counties, be self-sufficient, and gradually gain a firm foothold. You can do ocean-going trade, and at the same time, you can transport grain from the south by sea when there is a shortage of food.

Li Ying snorted coldly and said strangely, "Erlang is too taken for granted, right? Let's not talk about whether we can stand on our feet when we go so far away. As you said, our army is going out. Don't we want this hard-earned Liangshan cause?"

Song Qing knew that some people would sing against each other, and believed that many people sitting there had the same idea as Li Ying. After all, he did not have a good reputation in the past. It is inevitable that the agent boss will come with such a big deal in a few days, which inevitably makes people suspicious. But Song Qing believes that his idea is not wrong, and also believes that someone will support his idea.

"The cottage is not only our base, but also a nail inserted under the throat of Bianliang in Tokyo, so the cottage must not be discarded. As far as I know, there will soon be a big war between Song and Liao, and the losing party must be the court. After the great defeat, the court must have no time to take care of us. We just want to seize this opportunity."

sighed and said, "The number of copycats is increasing, and looting alone can no longer meet such a large consumption, so we must develop a larger living space."

"The hardship in the north is well known. Since we want to expand our territory, we should also go south."

"Bang!"

Lu Zhishen slapped the table and stood up, glaring at Li Ying and said, "Now Erlang is the owner of the village. You are fucking crooked. What do you regard Erlang as? Do you need to teach you what it means to act at home?

This is called one thing falling one thing. In the whole Liangshan Mountain, Li Ying can say that he is not even afraid of Song Jiang, but only two people, one is Wu Song and the other is Lu Zhishen.

Li Ying saw that Lu Zhi was deeply angry, and Wu Song looked at him with a bad look. He smiled awkwardly and said, "Ha ha! The master is angry, and I don't mean anything else. I just think it's too big, and everyone still needs to think twice."

Lu Zhi snorted deeply and turned to Song Qing and said, "Erlang is now the owner of the village. You can do whatever you want. You have to fight Yanzhou and take the lead."

What Liangshan people like is called righteous men and heroes, and what they don't like is a group of bandits. There is a kind of predatory in their bones, and they often go down the mountain to rob when they have nothing to do. Now Song Qing suddenly put forward such a big plan, which can be said to be very good for the spleen and stomach of some Liangshan bandits.

As soon as Lu Zhishen's words fell, many people followed the noise and agreed to Song Qing's proposal to send troops to the state.

Seeing that there were so many people supporting him, Song Qing didn't know whether he should be happy or not. He could only make suggestions. The specific way to send troops and use troops had to be studied and decided by Wu Yong and Gongsun Sheng. He can now say that his foothold is still unstable, and he still has this consciousness.

At this moment, a sergeant outside the hall reported loudly.

"Report to the leaders, the news from the Shuizhai brothers that a large number of grain and fodder are being transported to Jeju"
