Chapter 103 Detecting People's feelings

Although Song Qing's mood to return to Liangshan is very urgent, he can't rush back at once. On the way back, he should also observe the people's feelings of these places by the way.

The first stop selected by Song Qing is Weizhou.

A few days ago, the old general Huyanzhuo wrote a letter saying that the people and horses had been stationed in Qingzhou, but according to Song Qing's instructions, he did not have any contact with the local officials. They just protected the people and wiped out the rebel bandits. Now the people of Qingzhou have taken Liangshan people as the backbone. If they have something to do, they can go to Liangshan Camp for help. Basically, they have It's about to overtake the Qingzhou government.

What Song Qing wants is this effect. As long as the people are devoted to Liangshan, and there is Liangshan's army in Qingzhou, it is no different from actually controlling Qingzhou.

From Dengzhou to Laizhou and then to Weizhou. Song Qing is still very satisfied along the way.

Liang Shan eradicates evil, protects legitimate businessmen, and supports the poor people. This series of policies to benefit the people have won the absolute support of the people in these places, and even many young people have asked to join Liangshan's team.

Song Qing is not in a hurry to expand the number of people. On the one hand, Liangshan takes the route of elite soldiers. On the other hand, these places occupied by Liangshan are vast and sparsely populated. If these young people are dragged away, who will plant the fields?

Food is the first necessity of the people. Only when the people are full will he not oppose you.

In many places, there are still officials of the original court, because they have no bad deeds, so they can be left behind. Song Qing treats such officials equally, and the treatment is much higher than that of the original court.

There is no danger to life, the treatment is good, and the people under the rule can live and work in peace and contentment. Who doesn't want to be such an official? Therefore, the officials of these state capitals occupied by Liangshan have also calmed down.

I dare not say that I am conscientious. At least I manage my jurisdiction carefully and did not support Song Qing.

At this time, Qizhou, the governing place of Jingdong East Road, was already full of wind and cranes. Since Deng Shiguang took away most of the people and is gone forever, Qizhou, the former Jingdong East Road, has died in name only.

The states on Jingdong East Road are basically under the control of Liangshan, and the instructions to appease the government can't get out of Qizhou at all. Even if they go to other states, no one pays attention to them. And the imperial court has not reacted at all so far, and it seems that it has acquiesced to Liang Shan's occupation of these places.

The governor of Qizhou was panicked all day long. Sometimes he even thought that he would simply resign or flee back to the capital, so as not to think about whether Liang Shan would come here.

If he said to surrender, he did not dare. After all, Qizhou is close to Hebei East Road. In case the court recruits troops, where will he run? Moreover, he is extremely reluctant to surrender to the thief, a person who is full of sages.

However, the news received in the past few days finally reassures the magistrate a lot. The court has sent more people and horses in Xuzhou, Texas and other places to mobilized supplies. It seems that it is ready to fight against Liangshan.

The magistrate's good mood did not last for a few days, and then received the news that the governor of the Huaiyang army was burned down by a sudden fire. It is said that the governor was also burned to death. Many military materials dispatched by the imperial court were also burned.

How the fire started? Although the magistrate did not know, he intuitively told him that this matter must have nothing to do with Liang Shan.

Then, news came from Texas that the official warehouse in Texas was also burned down, the government office was stolen, and hundreds of thousands of official silver stored in the government office were all stolen.

At this time, even a fool knows what's going on.

Liang Shanren will come sooner or later, and they will definitely not be able to defend the city. They will surrender and be afraid of shame.

The magistrate thought about it, simply hung up the big seal, rolled up the gold and silver, and sneaked away with his little one at night.

When the magistrate disappeared, Qizhou's Beijia, Changshi, Sima and other officials were dumbfounded and immediately sent people to report to the court, but they also forgot one thing, that is, all the stations on Jingdong East Road were under Liang Shan's control. Their urgent report to the court was not sent to the court, but to Song Qing.

At this time, Song Qing had passed through Yizhou and received a secret letter, and he couldn't help meditating.

Qizhou Fucheng is the later Jinan, where the city has high walls and convenient transportation, and has always been a must-have place for soldiers. Song Qing has been coveting it for a long time, but he didn't want to stimulate the court too much, so he didn't send troops to occupy it.

However, looking at what Qizhou looks like now, it's a good time to send troops directly, or like Qingzhou, first disrupt, and then take the opportunity to send troops?

In fact, Song Qing still has an idea in his mind.

Denzhou faces the sea. Although its development is fast, it is not suitable as a capital. Qizhou is different. With convenient transportation and connecting the north and south, it is the first big city on the Shandong Peninsula.

facing the north and south, ascending the throne as emperor, although it is a dream, isn't the development trend of Liangshan also developing in this direction?

With the expansion of the territory, neither Dengzhou nor Liangshan is suitable to be the center of the Liangshan regime. There must be a central city that is more adaptable to the development of Liangshan. In the current situation, Qizhou is undoubtedly the best choice.

He made up his mind and immediately ordered Lin Chong to change his way to Qizhou.

Song Qing came back this time with not many people, only 5,000. But as Song Qing's guards, these 5,000 men and horses can be called the elite of the elite.

Although Lin Chong was anxious to go back to see his grandson, he knew that the military order was like a mountain, and immediately made people turn to Qizhou.

Only the Mingyue sisters dare to make an anxious request to see the baby in front of Song Qing, and Song Qing can understand their feelings. So Wu Song sent a team of people to escort them back to the mountain first, and he continued to march to the capital of Qizhou.

Although the governor of Qizhou ran away, the government was still operating normally under the maintenance of other officials such as other drivers and Changshi. However, these two adults still don't know that Liu Sima, who is in charge of military affairs in Qizhou City, has already been bought by Liang Shan.

Don't drive, Changshi, the two adults are looking forward to the news of the court day and night, while Liu Sima is looking forward to the early appearance of Liangshan people.

On this day, Liu Sima was working in the government office. Suddenly, a subordinate came to report that a distinguished guest came to his house and asked him to go back immediately.

Liu Sima wondered that he could be called the third person in this Qizhou city. Even if he didn't drive and Changshi would give him some face. Who dares to call him a distinguished guest in front of him?

Despite his doubts, he put down his official business and rushed home.

Liu Sima is a soldier and relatively vigilant. Before he got home, he felt that there were many strange faces around his home, and most of these armed people were tall and strong, cold and handsome, and their eyes were extremely unfriendly.

Liu Sima tightened his heart and said secretly, who are these people? Why does it appear around my house?

In doubt, I suddenly saw a familiar figure coming towards him. Looking carefully, isn't this Liangshan hero who has been in contact with him?

The man hugged Liu Sima and smiled, "Liu Sima, my master is here and wants to see you. He is at your home at this moment."

Your master?

Liu Sima was slightly stunned, and then remembered a person who was so scared that he almost fell down.

He trembled and said, "But it's big. Is the general manager here?

The man smiled mysteriously and said, "Go! Don't let the master wait"

Liu Sima did not dare to neglect. He hurried three steps and ran into the house in two steps.

Liu Sima's home is not as heavily guarded as he imagined. Except for a giant like an iron tower standing outside the flower hall, nothing has changed.

The people around Liu Sima saluted the tower. After reporting Liu Sima's identity, the tower made way and allowed Liu Sima to enter. It seems that this is not Liu Sima's home, but Liangshan's Zhongyi Hall.

Liu Sima doesn't feel anything in his heart now. If it's not his own home, it's not his own home! If you offend this master, it's hard to say whether his life can be saved, let alone the family.

I quickly walked to the hall and saw a handsome young man looking at him face and kindly.

Liu Sima knew that Liang Shan's boss was a handsome young man, so he knelt down and kowtowed directly without saying a word.

"Liu Chengliang, a subordinate of Qizhou Sima, has met the general manager"

The person who came is Song Qing. Although Qizhou is still under the control of the imperial court, there is no power in the city that can threaten him. Moreover, there is a big insider here. What's so terrible about him?

Get up and help Liu Sima with his own hands and gently said, "Liu Sima has worked hard. You have made great contributions to solving Qizhou peacefully for our Liangshan. I will definitely keep it in mind."

Liu Sima was a little flattered and hurriedly said, "This is what his subordinates should do. The general manager came to Qizhou in person, but he wants to use troops against Qizhou? What should I do?"

Song Qing smiled. This guy is more anxious than me.

shook his head and said, "If you can send troops, Qizhou is already in Liangshan's hands. Now you can't stimulate the court too much. I'm here to find a reason for you to control the two masters of Don't drive and Changshi, and I will give you a match. Then you control Qizhou City to confuse the ears and eyes of the court"

Liu Sima understands that the general manager is going to play Mingxiu's plank road and dark Chencang! By himself, the court thought that Qizhou was in the hands of the court, but it was actually controlled by Liang Shan.

He hugged his fist and said, "Don't worry, my subordinates are going to arrest them, and I will never miss the general manager."

"Very good, let's go!"

Song Qing came to see him in person, and of course, he also meant to investigate to see if he could be competent for what he explained. So far, Song Qing is still very satisfied with Liu Sima.

After taking down Qizhou and Changshi, Song Qing asked Liu Sima to draft a memorial and declare to the court that the governor fled, and that the long history was wrong. Then he sent someone to tell Liang Shicheng to give Liu Sima the position of Qizhou magistrate. In this way, Liangshan can truly control Qizhou City.

Liang Shan did not send people to make trouble, so the public security in Qizhou is still stable. Occasionally, you can see several government officials wandering around on the street, almost unofficial figures.

However, it seems to be a little unusual today, and I don't know that the officers and soldiers of the brigade came out of there. After blocking the street, under the leadership of Lord Sima Liu, they went straight to the government office and captured the defenseless drivers and Changshi back, and then went to their homes to put the two adults' families into prison together.

The people in the city, including the officials of the government, don't know what's going on. At this time, Liu Sima posted a notice, telling him and Changshi about the corruption and corruption, and explaining that he had reported to the court to ask the people's officials to feel at ease and so on.

Then the vigorous Liu Sima replaced a group of urban defense officials and generals in the name of rectifying two corrupt officials and party members. The capital of Qizhou was completely controlled.

At this time, Song Qing had already strolled the streets of Qizhou to see this ancient city.
