When the boat regained its stability, Dai Zong stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and said anxiously: "It turns out that the noble man recognizes this thief. My subordinates also just thought that this person is quite famous in the river. They thought he was a noble person, but he is actually a water cutter."

The robber!"

Hong Qi turned around and said: "Is this considered a Shezhe character? My prince is the real Shezhe, how come these water bandits dare to call him this name?"

Dai Zong nodded in agreement, while Zhao Tong remained silent. He just looked at where Lei San and Zhang Shun were fighting, and saw the two of them fighting together on the river. One grabbed the other's hair, and the other pinched the other's neck. There was a wave of excitement for a moment.

Splashing, disappearing and appearing, the fish were so startled that they jumped out of the water, it was so exciting.

Zhao Tong said: "Zhang Heng and Zhang Shun are brothers. Now we row the boat over and let him know about Zhang Heng's death. It would be best if we can capture and kill him when he is not prepared. We can't scare him away as well."<

/p>

Dai Zong was the only one among them who knew how to row a boat, so he rowed toward that direction. When he got closer, Hong Qi shouted: "The water bandit Zhang Heng is dead, and that Zhang Shun still hasn't surrendered!"

Zhang Shun was shocked when he heard these words in the water. He saw his brother's boat and the sharp knife thrown on the board that looked like it was splashing in the wind. He still didn't believe it.

Lei San was left floating beside him, holding a strand of hair in his hand in a daze.

Hong Qi fished Lei San up and was about to speak when he saw the waves rolling not far away, revealing a head. It was none other than Zhang Shun. Zhang Shun shouted: "Does the person who killed my brother dare to leave his name?"
p>

Dai Zong and Huang Wenbing were about to speak, but were stopped by Zhao Tao, saying: "You have to stay in Jiangzhou temporarily. Leave your name and don't let him get in the dark and have your head cut off. You will die in vain."

He stood in front of the boat and looked into the distance Zhang Shun said: "Why don't you dare? This is Suiyu Tower, Saipan'an, Gai Mengchang, Mu Sheng in Tokyo!"

Zhang Shun was shocked when he heard this in the water, but why do you think it is? It turns out that the nicknames in the rivers, lakes and green forests are superimposed to make it bigger. His nickname is Langli Baitiao, which is just an odd number, and his brother Chuanhuo'er is also an odd number.

No. is not as good as him. Anyone with two or three nicknames is a great hero.

Zhang Shun thought in the middle of the water, what a luxurious person, but when he thought about his brother's tragic death, he couldn't help but feel resentful, and he plunged into the water never to be seen again.

Seeing Zhang Shun escape, Lei San was wet and prostrated: "Xiao Xianggong, my subordinates did not kill this evil thief, please punish me."

Zhao Tong sat on the bow of the boat, looked at Lei San and said, "Do you know what's wrong?"

Lei San said: "I don't know, please give me some advice."

Zhao Tong said: "You shouldn't go into the water with him. You still have a chance to win against him on the shore. But when you go into the water, you lose the upper hand. Do you think that your water skills are excellent, so you are not afraid?"

Lei San lowered his head and said: "My subordinate has been swimming in several major rivers in Tokyo since he was a child. He has never been afraid of fighting in the water, but he did not expect that this thief is so good at water.

Zhao Tong shook his head and said: "Everything depends on the right time, right place, right place and right people. You can do your own calculations. How many things can you get by fighting with Zhang Shun?"

Lei San looked confused and went to think about it, and Zhao Tong said to Huang Wenbing and Dai Zong: "I heard that there are three tyrants by the Xunyang River, there is Jieyang Ridge over there, there is a tyrant on the top and bottom of the ridge, and there is another tyrant in Jieyang town. By the Xunyang River

There is another tyrant who kills people, sells goods and bullies the market. The brother of the Zhang family is this Jiang Ba. You two must be careful. After I leave, beware of them colluding to come for revenge."

Huang Wenbing and Dai Zong nodded in agreement, and the boat docked from time to time, and a few people went there on their own.

The next day, Zhao Tong led his troops to leave Jiangzhou and return to Beijing. Magistrate Cai Jiu sent him all the way, and also carried several large boxes of gold, silver, and silk. Zhao Tong collected them all and said he would meet him in Kaifeng, Tokyo.

After returning to Beijing a few days ago, Zhao Tong went to the palace to resume his duties. Emperor Daojun asked about the weather on Longhu Mountain. Zhao Tong only said that there was a prosperous place in the capital. Emperor Daojun was proud of himself and rewarded him with some gifts. The matter came to an end.
p>

Another day, Zhao Tong took the empty pay booklet that was presented to him when promoting officers this time. He first went to the pro-army department and ordered it, and then went to inspect the troops.

He is now powerful. Originally, the Imperial Guards Division had more soldiers and horses than the Imperial Guards. The total number of imperial troops in Gyeonggi Road was about 150,000. According to the rules, the Imperial Guards Division received 60,000, and the Imperial Guard Division received 90,000.
p>

Zhao Tao looked at the book of false pay and made a rough estimate in his mind. In fact, the Gyeonggi Forbidden Army is actually only 100,000, and the other 50,000 are just the heads on the book.

He had already prepared for this, and was not too surprised. After calling the names, he led the generals out of the mansion. On the way, he first rushed to the Dragon Guard under the command of Ma Junsi.

There are three armies under the Ma Army: Dragon Guard, Yunqi, and Xiaojie, all of which are cavalry. Among them, the left and right wings of the Dragon Guard stationed in Tokyo have a total of thirty-eight commanders.

In addition, there is the Yunqi Army, which has eleven commanders stationed in Tokyo.

The Xiaojie Army is not stationed in Tokyo, but is mainly stationed in Jizhou and Enzhou, Hebei.

When they came out of the city to meet the army, the 38 major camps commanded by the Dragon Guard were all in the north of the city, not far from the bank of the Yellow River.

It was not yet noon, and everyone in the camp was busy. People were polishing their armor, polishing their arrows, and they even dug out new armor but couldn't put it on. It turned out that since it was issued,

I have never been naked once.

When Zhao Tong came to the front of the camp, he saw such a scene. The camp was scattered, the gates were broken, the so-called fourth army of the Forbidden Army, and the ace Dragon Guards in the cavalry were in a mess and without any structure, and they didn't know what kind of formation they were.

Just like this, they lined up on the plain like geese.

Although Zhao Tong had already expected it and knew that the Forbidden Army was corrupt, seeing such a scene, his face still darkened a little bit.

Twenty thousand Jurchens can defeat 700,000 Liao troops, and one day in the future, thousands of Liao troops can defeat hundreds of thousands of Song troops!

Even killing pigs is not that easy. Isn't the combat power of this forbidden army inferior to pigs?

But what he saw now made Zhao Tong really suspicious.

Seeing Zhao Tong's ugly face, all the generals did not dare to speak. They all held their breath and lowered their heads.

At this time, someone who couldn't see clearly the form actually raised the big flag. As soon as the big flag was raised, all the forbidden troops shouted slogans and then moved forward suddenly.

Hearing the feeble voice and seeing the swaying team, Zhao Tie's eyes jumped. Tan Zhen, who was beside him, watched his words and shouted: "Stop!"

The flag was lowered and the imperial troops stopped moving.

Zhao Tong looked coldly at the Forbidden Army in front, then turned to Commander Ma Jun Sidu who was shivering beside him and said: "Let's count!"

The commander-in-chief of the Ma Army Division is the original Marquis of Du Yu. He spent a large sum of money to buy this position. It is a position second only to the deputy commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guard.

After hearing Zhao Tong's order, he didn't dare to neglect. He hurriedly led a group of subordinates and asked the supervisor of the Pro-Military Department to go in front and headed towards the Forbidden Army.

The number is naturally based on the actual number of the Imperial Guards based on the booklet. Zhao Tan has a book of empty rates, so he can count according to the number on it.

After a long time, the supervisor returned with a booklet in his hands: "Your Majesty, there are a hundred or dozens of people missing, but I looked at the list of vacancies. They are all old, weak, sick and disabled, some of whom can't even get out of bed!"

Zhao Tong nodded. These hundreds and dozens of people were not considered free wages, but they should have cleared out the Forbidden Army team long ago. They must have used money, so they have been holding on.
