After Daojun Emperor Zhao Ji determined the generals who would go south to encircle and suppress Fangla, he added: "Now that the imperial army is stretched thin, we must first appease the Liangshan bandits.
After Fangla is pacified, we can then deal with the Liangshan bandits.
Which of the ministers can go to appease Liangshan Bo?"
Shi Jin and others" As soon as the emperor finished speaking, Su Yuanjing, the commander-in-chief in front of the palace, hurriedly left his post and said with his hands in his hands: "I would like to go on another journey.
This time I will help the emperor appease the bandits."
Daojun Emperor Zhao Ji was overjoyed and said: "It is good if Aiqing is willing to go.
Song Jiang, the commander of the Forbidden Army Camp, is from Jezhou and is quite famous in the world.
He also has some friendship with several bandits in Liangshan.
Song Jiang accompanied Aiqing.
Let's go together to appease the bandits.
Ai Qing is here as the chief envoy, and Song Jiang is the deputy envoy."
Now, although the gang of thieves in Liangshan did not openly declare that they wanted to rebel, they still occupied the city and refused to leave.
Who knows whether they would see Fang La's gang working in full swing, and they would also become thief and want to rebel?
It would be a good idea to go with someone who has friendship with the bandits in Liangshan.
Maybe you can rely on him to be accommodating when you are in trouble.
Su Yuanjing hurriedly raised his hands and said, "Yes, I obey the order."
Daojun Emperor Zhao Ji thought for a while and said: "Go to appease the bandits in Liangshan.
Song Jiang's status is a bit low.
Decree: Song Jiang is not afraid of danger and is willing to risk his life to persuade the bandits to surrender.
He will be promoted to the rank of Yuhou in front of the palace."
Even though he was promoted to the front minister, Yuhou Song Jiang's status was still a bit low.
If he was appointed as the chief envoy, it would make people look down on the Liangshan bandits.
In this way, it is possible to do bad things with good intentions.
Let Song Jiang be the deputy envoy to negotiate the terms, and then let Su Yuanjing read it out.
This is the best policy.
As the emperor's edict was issued, the Song Dynasty's machine started turning.
Raise money and food from the treasury and select weapons from the arsenal.
This time, in order to pacify Fangla as soon as possible and restore the rule of Jiangnan.
In addition, Fang La dug up Cai Jing's ancestral grave, which made Cai Jing want to skin Fang La alive.
The whole court was determined to eradicate Fang La.
Under this thinking, it opens the door to convenience.
Even heavy weapons such as eight-oxen crossbows, divine arm bows, and thunderbolt cannons, which were usually easy to mobilize and difficult to mobilize, were now distributed in large quantities to the armies encircling and suppressing Fang La from the east and west.
Although there may not even be 300,000 imperial troops in the capital, the emperor's decree was issued.
Even if you don’t have it, you have to have it.
Thirty thousand people were transferred from the Western Army, another 10,000 were transferred from the Northern Army, and then 60,000 people were transferred from the Forbidden Army.
A total of 100,000 troops were sent to commanders Yang Jian, Tan Zhen, Wang Zhen and Liu Yanqing to go south to encircle Fangla.
Before the army was mobilized, Su Yuanjing and Song Jiang set off for Shandong, preparing to negotiate terms with Shi Jin and persuade them to surrender.
On the way to Shandong, Su Yuanjing and Song Jiang launched an attack on Yizhou first.
Outside Linyi City, Shi Jin led an army of 11,000 and felt helpless as he looked at the approaching city gate.
I don’t know if I’m having bad luck during this time or what.
After the Shandong Uprising, no city was easy to conquer.
Not to mention Zhang Shuye, the magistrate of Jeju, Jiang Yuan, the magistrate of Yizhou, is also a hardliner.
After the Liangshan army captured Yanzhou, Jiang Yuan, the governor of the state, also knew that the Liangshan bandits would attack Yizhou sooner or later.
There were no more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in Yizhou and no more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in the whole state.
Jiang Yuan knew that if he guarded everywhere, the final result would be to fall everywhere.

Jiang Yuan was cruel and completely ignored the other counties under Yizhou's jurisdiction.
He retracted nearly 7,000 troops and horses in the state back to the capital Linyi City early, making it clear that the troops and horses must hold on to the end.
Digging tunnels and using explosives to blow up city walls is very useful, but the amount of black powder required is huge.
Why did Shi Jin take risks and travel thousands of miles when attacking Yanzhou?
It wasn't because he basically used up all the gunpowder in the attack on Jeju in order to blow down the city wall.
In addition, the attack on Jeju was the first battle, and Zhang Shuye was good at defending, so Shi Jin would use up all his gunpowder to blow open the city wall and capture Jeju.
After nearly two months of manufacturing, a lot of gunpowder was accumulated.
But for the sake of subsequent operations, Shi Jin did not want to use them all.
Moreover, Shi Jin didn't believe that Jiang Yuan would be as difficult to deal with as Zhang Shuye.
Riding on the red horse of Huotan, Shi Jin drew his sword and shouted: "The whole army attacks the city!"
As military orders were issued, war drums beat and horns sounded.
The catapult was the first to attack, and huge stones were thrown into the sky and then fell heavily.
Seeing the huge stone smash down, Song Bing from Linyi turned around and ran away in fright.
Some Song soldiers did not run down the city in time and were directly stoned to death.
They died miserably.
When those recruits in the Song Army who had never seen a dead person saw the tragic death of their companions, some were so frightened that they peed, some were so frightened that they vomited on the spot, and most of them abandoned their weapons and deserted.
Yuan Chun, the commander of the Yizhou regiment, killed several deserters one after another and shouted: "No escape, no escape.
Anyone who dares to escape will be killed by me."
Although Yuanchun killed several people, the frightened Song soldiers were even more afraid of the huge rocks falling from the sky.
As they ran furiously, Yuanchun did not dare to resist the fleeing crowd.
Zhizhou Jiang Yuan saw that the Song soldiers were unable to hold on at the top of the city under the threat of huge rocks.
He could only shout: "Remove all the soldiers and stop the bandits in the city.
I don't believe that those bandits dare to smash stones like this in the city."
After smashing the stick of incense, I saw that there was no Song soldier on the city.
Shi Jin stopped the catapult attack and asked the sword and shield soldiers to make a tentative attack.
The sword and shield soldiers who had been prepared early in the morning carried the ladder and ran quickly into the city, set up the ladder and climbed up.
Seeing that Liang Shanjun easily climbed to the top of the city without encountering any obstruction.
Shi Jin's eyes lit up.
Sure enough, Jiang Yuan was not as good as Zhang Shuye.
He didn't build a cave to hide soldiers on the city wall.
Shi Jin shouted loudly: "The officers and soldiers have run away, no one is blocking the way.
Hurry, capture the city gate."
When the soldiers of the Liangshan Army saw that there were no Song soldiers firing arrows or boiling oil at the top of the city, they immediately ran away excitedly and rushed towards the city wall screaming.
As the south gate was captured, part of the Liangshan army ran along the city head to control the other three city gates, and some went down to the city head to capture the government offices, warehouses and other important places.
In order to show his determination to hold on to the city, Jiang Yuan asked people to block the city gate with stones and hardwood early in the morning.
After Liangshan's army took control of the city gate, they moved away the sand and stone crossbars and opened the city gate.
Shi Jin, Zhu Wu, and Wu Yong rode into Linyi City with the support of a group of soldiers.
Just when Shi Jin was happy that he could capture Linyi City so easily this time, Suo Chao, the pioneer, suddenly rushed over and shouted: "Brother, Jiang Yuan, the prefect of Zhizhou, refuses to surrender and is leading his people to fight to the death in front of the government office."
In front of the government office, the prefect Jiang Yuan and the regiment training envoy Yuan Chunzheng led more than 2,000 Song soldiers to start a street fight, making the final resistance.
Yuan Chun, the commander of the regiment training, had just repelled an attack by the Liangshan Army.
He walked up to Zhizhou Jiang Yuan with a broadsword and shouted: "Master Zhizhou, the Liangshan Army has captured the city and Linyi cannot hold it.
I will escort you to kill him right now."
"Out of town" Jiang Yuan, the magistrate of Yizhou, heard a loud shout: "As the magistrate of Yizhou, how can I abandon the city and flee?
There are only Jiang Yuan who died in battle, not Jiang Yuan who escaped.
Kill" Yuanchun felt bitter when he heard that Zhizhou refused to escape.

If Zhizhou escapes, he can also escape with him.
In this way, if you are investigated afterwards, even if you have to punish, it will not be a big mistake.
But if the civil servants do not flee, his generals will abandon the city and flee.
Even if you are lucky enough to survive, you will definitely be severely punished, and you will be exiled even if you don't die.
Yuanchun saw that Jiang Yuan had made up his mind and could only grit his teeth and fight to the death.
Oh shit He, Jiang Yuan, is not afraid of death as a civil servant, but I, a military general, am still afraid of death.
If you die, you will die.
Kill one to earn enough money, kill two to earn one.
Seeing the Liangshan Army attacking again, Yuan Chun rushed forward with a broadsword.
The streets and alleys were narrow, and the Liangshan Army's large corps could not take advantage of the fighting, so they could only kill them one step at a time.
The two sides engaged in hand-to-hand combat, and the fierce fighting began, with countless sharp weapons slashing and fighting.
Both sides gritted their teeth and persisted in fighting, hoping to kill the other side first.
Seeing that the city had failed, the Song army was still resisting.
Shi Jin wanted to fight in person several times, but was held back by Lu Fang, Guo Sheng and others.
Leaders such as Lu Zhishen and Wu Song fought on the front line, leading their respective troops to compress the Song army's defense line step by step.
Jiang Yuan waved his sword crazily and shouted desperately.
"The time has come to kill and be loyal to the country."
Under the desperate resistance of the Song soldiers, the Liangshan army also suffered many casualties.
Seeing that the Song army was still resisting stubbornly, Wu Yongjince said: "Brother, since Jiang Yuan refuses to surrender, just kill them with a catapult."
Zhu Wu immediately objected after hearing this: "Brother, no.
Jiang Yuan is just resisting tenaciously.
With the strength of our army, we will defeat this group of Song troops sooner or later.
The accuracy of this catapult is too bad, it can easily hit ordinary houses.
The people were accidentally injured.
Now Linyi has been captured by our army.
If the people are killed, it will not be conducive to our army taking over Linyi."
The grumpy Li Kui shouted: "Brother, since the birdman is so ignorant, let Tieniu lead his men to get the birdman's head and present it to you."
The Huben Army under Li Kui is the most powerful force among the Liangshan Army.
It would be better to let the Huben Army go and resolve the battle as soon as possible.
Shi Jin nodded and said: "Okay, but if you can capture Jiang Yuan alive, then capture him alive."
"Yes" Li Kui led his men and went to the place where the fierce fighting was taking place.
Seeing Li Kui's violent aura, Shi Jin knew that he had not listened to his last instructions at all, so he shouted: "Xiang Chong, Li Gun, you two go together to help Li Kui.
Remember if you can capture Jiang Yuan alive."
Capture the opponent alive" The eight-armed Nezha Xiang Chong and the flying sage Li Gun shouted: "Yes, big brother" What kind of people lead what kind of soldiers?
Li Kui used two axes, and the soldiers of Huben Army also liked to use axes.
In view of Li Kui's fierce and fearless temperament, the soldiers of the Huben Army are basically willing to accept a knife or a shot from you, or split you in half with an axe.
Not to mention the axes flying all over the sky, Song Bing managed to avoid the ax that struck him head-on.
Before they could take a breath, they were alarmed to find that a figure suddenly jumped out from under their feet.
Then with a flash of sword, Song Bing found his own body on the spot.
His legs were cut off, and he fell to the ground in pain, howling and bleeding to death.
As the Huben Camp and Manpai Hob Soldiers joined the battlefield, the Song Army, which had barely resisted, suddenly collapsed.
Song Bing screamed and turned and ran away.
At this time, the regiment training commander Yuan Chun was resisting the crazy attack of the Huben army, and he had no energy to take care of the deserters.
Without the escort of Song soldiers, Jiang Yuan, as a civil servant, could only fight with the Liangshan army with a sword at this time.
But after all, he is a civil servant and has little strength.

No one was killed, but he was hit by seven or eight knives.
If Xiang Chong hadn't blocked him with a barbaric card at the last moment, he would have been hacked to death by Li Kui who was at the forefront.
The Liangshan Army surrounded less than a hundred Song soldiers at a street entrance in front of the government office.
The clothes on his body were stained red by his own blood.
Jiang Yuan gasped, but he still stubbornly supported himself with his long sword and glared at Liang Shanjun.
Seeing the big leader Shi coming in, the surrounding Liangshan army hurriedly dispersed and made way for a passage.
Shi Jin came in with Zhu Wu and others.
Seeing that Jiang Yuan still refused to surrender, Shi Jin shouted: "I am Jiuzhilong Shi Jin.
I believe you have seen it, Jiang Zhizhou.
Linyi has been captured by our army.
In order to avoid fearless casualties, you still Surrender" After nearly a month of preparations, Jiang Yuan originally thought he could hold out until reinforcements from the imperial court arrived.
Unexpectedly, the city was captured without even being able to defend it for a day.
Jiang Yuan looked bitter and said in a hoarse voice: "You bandits, never think that I, Jiang Yuan, will surrender to you.
I swear to the death that I will not surrender."
Shi Jin looked at the panicked Song soldiers and persuaded them: "Surrender, think more about the soldiers around you.
They have fulfilled their duties and will hold on until the last moment.
Many of them are the backbone of their families." , they are dead, and their families may starve to death without them.
Please think more about their families and don’t let them make fearless sacrifices.”
Jiang Yuan looked at the soldiers who accompanied him at the end.
What he saw were soldiers looking at him with fear, hope and expectation.
Jiang Yuan sighed, "You surrender."
Hearing the adults shouting surrender, the remaining Song soldiers suddenly became overjoyed and dropped their weapons.
Shi Jin was very happy to see Song Bing surrender.
Finally surrendered Just when Shi Jin was preparing to comfort and entertain Jiang Yuan.
Suddenly, Jiang Yuan yelled with all his strength: "Shi Jin bandits, I am incompetent, let you capture Linyi.
But don't be happy too early, I have millions of soldiers in the Song Dynasty, I will destroy you like a dog."
Your Majesty is waiting for you in the underworld.
Jiang Yuan fell into the city.
His sin is unforgivable.
Today, I can only die to apologize for my sin."
After shouting, Jiang Yuan picked up the sword in his hand and committed suicide in front of the government office
