Chapter 105 two armies at war

It is heard that Gao Qiu's army has entered Shandong, and it is estimated that there is still half a day's journey to Liangshanbo. Brother Song led all his brothers down the mountain to set up an army, ready to fight.As a result, we blew the northwest wind for a long time, but we didn't see anyone. It turns out that Gao Qiu likes to put on airs and wants to create an atmosphere of enthusiastic support from the people, so that he can show in front of the emperor that he is not only good at running the army, but also loves the people like a son and is loved by the local people. Order eggs and fruits to entertain soldiers.Yamen at all levels plucked wild geese, the state government withdrew some, the county government withdrew some, and the villages withdrew some.Ordinary people don't say anything with their hands empty, and they have to post it upside down.Of course, there are policies and there are countermeasures. The people were waiting on the main road that day, holding bowls of cold water, all of which were temporarily scooped from the ditch. Don't let go, after you drink a bowl, I will serve you another bowl immediately, one bowl after another...

As soon as Gao Qi's army entered the mountain pass, more than half of them disappeared, and they all ran to the bushes to have diarrhea... As soon as Gao Qiu entered the county, he kept sending battle reports to the imperial court. He fought fiercely on Erlong Mountain, wiped out countless bandits, and killed 10,000 officers and soldiers; 50,000, 30,000 officers and soldiers died... When Gao Qiu arrived at the foot of Liangshan Mountain, he had wiped out more than 100,000 thieves and killed 80,000 before he could go into battle... The two armies confronted each other, and Gao Qiu's army was in a dense mass. All the brothers were stunned. I saw that Brother Song's hand holding the rein trembled a little.

Gao Qiu rode out to battle, scolding the bandits in Liangshan, who usually do evil and do not obey the king's order, now that the king's master has arrived, he must dismount and accept surrender! Big brother Song, who loses no one but never loses, puts his face forward and beats his horse forward, scolding the rotten trees above the court as officials, and the beasts in the palace, vowing to kill all corrupt officials and do justice for the sky. The coaches on both sides scolded happily, and the fight started next.Brother Song shouted "Come on", pulled his horse and fled.Over there, Gao Qiu shouted "Run!" and turned around to run away, and the imperial army retreated one after another as if they had made an appointment...

The brothers saw the crowds in the imperial court, and felt that there must be a defeat but no victory this time. They had already planned to run away as soon as the battle was fought. At that moment, many brothers had already turned around, but suddenly found that the imperial army had retreated. Kung Fu stood still.Brother Song moved half a beat faster, and galloped southward on his own, taking off his shirt while running.Wu Yong's reaction was also quite fast. As soon as Brother Song shouted "Chong", he immediately jumped off the horse, threw away his hat, took mud from the ground to paste his face, and then went into the crowd.The two of them suddenly felt that something was wrong. Brother Song turned around and saw that the imperial army was retreating, but the Liangshan army did not move. Knowing that the situation had changed, he turned his horse and ran back with an old face.The military master looked around, but the others didn't move a muscle, and the soldiers were a little confused, looking at him inexplicably, he laughed awkwardly, wiped the mud off his face and climbed back on the horse.One of the two had no shirt, and the other had messy hair and mud on his face.Brother Song said in a deep voice, "Military Master, it seems that Gao Qiu's plan was really caught by our strategy of attacking east and attacking west."Wu Yong echoed and said, yes, the imperial court couldn't figure out our details for a while and dared not fight. It seems that we cooperated seamlessly and achieved the effect of defeating others without fighting...

In this battle, Gao Qiu reported to the court that one hundred thousand people were killed in battle, and countless food and grass were burned, but the Liangshan bandits were severely injured...
