On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Qingzhou City.

The wind and snow that lasted for half a month finally stopped today, and the long-lost sunshine also showed a smile after the clouds dissipated. This made Qingzhou City, which had been silent for a while, become lively again. Pedestrians traveled between the streets and alleys, and there were even lights and decorations in front of all kinds of shops, with festive festive celebrations everywhere.

The local bandits all over the three mountains have all gone, and the people are all in a good mood. In addition, during the New Year Festival, everyone naturally needs to relax and put the hard work and worries of the past year aside for the time being, and enjoy this rare happy time.

Everyone knows that everything that is hard-won is obtained because of whom, so whenever someone passes by the gate of a large mansion in the east of the city, they will subconsciously stop and spontaneously greet Sun Dujian and say good New Year. Even if there is no one in front of the door at this time, it will not prevent everyone from making such a choice, because only in this way can they express their gratitude to Sun Tu.

At this time, Sun Tu, who was loved by the people of the city, was really at home and did not go to the military camp or the yamen to take charge. After all, during the Chinese New Year, the people in the government and military camps have also had holidays, and even if they have official duties, they will not be able to do these days. And after the Lantern Festival, the 18th day of the first lunar month is the wedding day of Sun Tu and Yaer, so he needs to prepare everything at home.

Although he quit all the things like the three media and six certificates because he did not like to be restrained, there were still too many things that Sun Tu needed to participate in the wedding at this time. He always had to understand more, after all, he followed the local customs. The most important thing among them was the precise control of the wedding day, which was a major event that concerns the lifelong luck of the newlyweds. Even Sun Tu dared not be too careless.

At this time, he was watching the relevant time flow sent by Huang Wenbing with Yaer, and saw the two young men and women who knew nothing about it were shocked: "It's really complicated to be a married woman, and it's harder than leading the army to fight..."

Yaer leaned against Sun Tu's arms with a blushing face, and nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, we will be busy from morning to night that day. Yaer is really afraid that something will happen to me."

"Don't worry, I'm here, there will be no problem." Sun Tu said, glanced at the specific date and time above, and smiled helplessly: "This year has become the first year of Xuanhe. If you change the year name in a few years, don't you feel troublesome in the current government?"

Yes, after two years of Chonghe, I wonder if I feel that the years of the past two years are still not satisfactory, but the emperor has changed his year name to Xuanhe again. In fact, as early as July and August last year, the court had delivered relevant documents to all prefectures and prefectures in the world. However, Sun Tu had not taken charge before, so it was not until today that the court had changed its year name again.

Sun Tu was quite unacceptable to the time traveler who was used to the fact that the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties had only one year name in their lifetime and could even use the year name to refer to the emperor as the emperor.

After complaining about the change of the year name, Sun Tu hugged Yaer and studied the details of the wedding day again. At the same time, he sighed in his heart that in comparison, modern weddings in later generations are more humane. Think about the so-called retro weddings of a few colleagues and classmates in later generations, which is completely impossible to compare with the complicated and complicated ancient weddings. If they were really asked to follow the ancient rules, no newlyweds would accept such a wedding.

While he was thinking about it, the family manager came to the study and reported in a low voice: "Master, Huang Magistrate is looking for a meeting outside." Although Huang Wenbing only served as the magistrate, he was recognized by the people of the whole city after more than a month, so everyone called him Huang Magistrate.

Sun Tu felt a little strange. On the first day of the New Year, Huang Wenbing had already come to celebrate the New Year with others. Why did he come back in a few days? Was there something wrong that he couldn't handle?

Ya'er got up obediently and returned to the backyard and gave it to the man. After Sun Tu nodded and agreed, the housekeeper invited Huang Wenbing, who looked anxious, into the study. As soon as he saw Sun Tu, he said anxiously: "The capital has something big. On New Year's Eve, chaos suddenly occurred in Jeju Prefecture. A bandit in Liangshan attacked three villages on Dulonggang at night. Although he failed to break the village, he also killed many lives..."

"Well? There is such a thing, so sit down and talk slowly." Sun Tu quickly raised his eyebrows when he heard it. After he sat down, he said again: "How did you know about this?" Nowadays, news is not so easy to convey. Even if Jeju and Qingzhou are only two or three hundred miles away, it is impossible for such things to come so quickly.

"If you go back to the capital, it was Jeju Prefecture who had just sent people to ask for help. I only knew about this change." Huang Wenbing breathed and said, "I failed to succeed in the raid on New Year's Eve, and the Liangshan bandits simply besieged Zhujiazhuang, the leader of the three villages of Dulonggang. Their situation was in danger. When Jeju Prefecture sent troops to rescue him, he was defeated by the ambush of Liangshanbo. Seeing that the thieves were in great power, Jeju Prefecture asked several provincial governments around him for help. It has been four or five days now, and I don't know if Zhujiazhuang can be defended."

"Are you saying that the Liangshanbo group attacked Zhujiazhuang?" Sun Tu had not taken the matter seriously before, but finally became serious at this time - did the three-match Zhujiazhuang in the story still appear?

As an extremely famous war story in the legend of Water Margin, Sun Tu is naturally very familiar with it. He even clearly remembers that the war between Liangshan and Zhujiazhuang was triggered because Yang Xiong Shixiu and Shi Qian stayed overnight in Zhujiazhuang. Shi Qian stole chickens and claimed that he was angry with the heroes of Liangshan and the people in the village were caught.

But now, Shi Qian is still serving as the captain of the scout camp in the Qingzhou army. He has never been stealing like before, and it is even more impossible to go to Zhujiazhuang to cause trouble. Why did Liangshan send troops to attack Zhujiazhuang again?

Huang Wenbing saw Sun Tu's doubts and explained: "It is said that when Liangshan sent troops to rescue Erlongshan a few months ago, the back road was attacked by the Sanzhuang of Dulonggang, so he formed a grudge. But he didn't expect that they were so brave that they attacked Zhujiazhuang on New Year's Eve and defeated the Jeju official army..."

"Is this the case? It seems that Zhujiazhuang suffered this disaster because of my Qingzhou." Sun Tu said with a serious expression. In fact, if it were to be counted, Zhujiazhuang had really helped Sun Tu a lot. If the other party had not attacked him from behind, I was afraid that Liangshanbo's men would have arrived at Erlong Mountain earlier. At that time, he had not led his army to capture Erlong Mountain. If he was attacked from both sides, it would be a big problem.

Huang Wenbing nodded: "So, I am humble in my opinion. Other prefectures can ignore this matter, but I, Qingzhou, must help me. In addition, this is consistent with the cooperation between the officers and soldiers of Shandong prefectures that you have previously promoted. Although no one responds for the time being, this matter is related to the safety of Shandong prefectures, so we cannot ignore it."

"It's right, this is especially critical." Sun Tu nodded deeply and said: "If even our Qingzhou army refused to send troops to rescue, then the so-called Shandong government army alliance would have become empty talk."

Seeing that Sun Tu had made a decision, Huang Wenbing reminded him again: "But Liangshan is not comparable to a small village like Erlongshan. They are strong and they are waiting for their hard work. It is probably not that easy for us to defeat them."

Sun Tu knew why he had this statement, obviously because he was worried that he would be arrogant after breaking the three mountains in a row and would suffer losses from the Liangshan bandits. He smiled and said, "I will naturally save this. For many bandits today, among the strong strength, Liangshanbo should be the leader, so I will not be proud. By the way, can the visitor provide details of the current forces of both sides?"

"According to the investigation by Jeju Prefecture, Liangshanpo used nearly a thousand troops this time, and Zhujiazhuang and other three villages together were less than 500. Although the local terrain is complex and easy to defend and difficult to attack, the situation is still not optimistic." Huang Wenbing said solemnly at this time: "So, if you really want to rescue the siege of Dulonggang, you have to send troops as soon as possible. But now the road is blocked by snow, so it is not easy to rush over as soon as possible, especially if there are too many soldiers and horses..."

When Sun Tu heard this, he stood up unconsciously and walked around the house and began to think. Yes, it is not easy to help Zhujiazhuang and others to rescue him, especially once he really brought people to kill him, it would only scare the people in Liangshanbo. But in this way, if they don’t give up, they can wait for their retreat to attack Zhujiazhuang again. His Qingzhou troops cannot stay in Jeju all the time.

In addition, the heavy snow has just stopped and the roads are blocked very much. A small number of people can find a way to pass through. Once there are thousands of people, it will be difficult to deal with.

"Let me think about it again and make a decision. But if you can reply to him, my Qingzhou army will definitely find a way to resolve the Jeju trap!" Sun Tu made a promise.

As soon as Huang Wenbing left, Sun Tu asked someone to call Lin Chong and his generals to his home to discuss the matter. These people had a very consistent attitude after knowing the cause and effect of the matter. They believed that they should send troops to rescue Zhujiazhuang, but they were not convinced of how to send troops, and they could not even come up with a strategy that would convince everyone.

Seeing everyone talking nonstop, Sun Tu didn't interrupt until the end, "I thought that the soldiers who saved Zhujiazhuang were not many, so the newly-engaged soldiers could not move. Only select elite soldiers from the two battalions A and B. Together with the scout camp, it would be enough to have five hundred people."

"Five hundred people..." Everyone looked at each other, obviously hesitating.
