    This was the first time that Gao Lian told his wife about the recent changes in the court. After hearing this, the woman worriedly said: "But if the coach of Filiao is replaced by Tong Guan, wouldn't it be dangerous for you to go into battle?"

    Gao Lian smiled and said: "Madam, don't worry, my brother will lose his position as the commander. In exchange, my military exploits will only increase. Dangerous wars naturally have people who have no background and want to make contributions. I only need to follow the army for a while, and I will get a considerable part of my military exploits."  Then it will belong to me. Okay, madam, please continue to sleep, I will go see what's going on with the people outside."

    Gao Lian walked out of the room and saw that the gentleman was holding a letter that was exactly the same as the one on his desk. He couldn't help but ask: "Letter from Liang Shan?"

    The gentleman looked at Gao Lian in surprise, raised his hands, and replied: "Yes, I found it on the case table when I was cleaning the lobby just now."

    Gao Lian took the letter, opened it and saw that the contents were the same, then waved his hand and said, "Please step aside first."

    After the gentleman left, Gao Lian called over the soldiers guarding the door and said, "Did you leave your post without permission last night?"

    The two soldiers hurriedly said: "Go back to the general, I won't leave for a while."

    Gao Lian stared at the two of them and said, "Did you hear anything?"

    Except for the moment when you were tossing about, the whole night was eerily quiet.

    Madam is still so fierce, scolding you like every day is useless.

    The two soldiers slandered and shook their heads: "No."

    Hearing this, Gao Lian couldn't help but wonder: "Haven't you ever gone to the toilet?"

    "Even when we go to the toilet, we take turns. There is always someone at the door."

    After hearing this, Gao Lian couldn't help but wonder. The house he lived in only had a few windows on the front. If they had been guarding the door, how could the letter get in?  The roof is more than ten feet high. Even if the thief wants to climb up, there will definitely be a noise.  It's possible that one of them secretly put it in while the other was away.

    "If you think about it carefully, you really didn't hear anything?"

    The two soldiers thought for a moment and said, "Indeed not."

    "You didn't fall asleep either?"

    "No"

    Seeing that the two soldiers refused to admit it, Gao Lian shouted: "Then how come there are so many letters from Liang Shan in my house? Come here, take them down for me."

    The soldiers guarding the courtyard immediately rushed over and grabbed the two of them.

    The soldier guarding the door hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, you are aware that we really didn't hear anything. Maybe the thief put the letter in during the day."

    "Nonsense, there was nothing on the table before going to bed, it was just extra at night. If you still want to deny it, drag me down and I will serve you with severe punishment."

    Gao Lian asked people to pull these two soldiers down, and then he asked people to prepare their horses.

    When Gao Lian arrived at the military camp, he summoned the officers in front of the tent, including the commander, supervisor, commander, commander, and commander. Seeing that everyone was here, he said: "Last night, the Liangshan bandits posted a message to the Yamen, saying that they were coming to attack Gaotang.  State. Let me ask you, is it possible for our soldiers and horses from Gaotang Province to go out to fight against the Liangshan bandits? "

    Hearing this, Commander Yu Zhi, who was transferred from Tokyo to assist Gao Lian, stood up and said, "Don't worry, sir. Our soldiers and horses in Gaotang Prefecture are well-trained. If the Liangshan thieves dare to attack, they will definitely be killed."  Do not stay."

    Other generals and assistants, most of whom were transferred from the Tokyo Forbidden Army, echoed the words one after another.

    Gao Lian saw the morale of the army and said with a smile: "Okay, if we can wipe out the Liangshan thieves, I will definitely ask for credit for everyone. You can prepare your horses and soldiers in the next few days and prepare to fight."

    Everybody obeyed.

    Gao Lian visited the military camp again before returning to the Yamen to continue interrogating the two soldiers. He also put aside the matter of killing Chai Jin.

    But it was said that after the Liangshan army left the berth, they quickly advanced along the official road and passed through Dongchang Mansion without encountering any interception.

    On the evening of the third day, they came to Gaotang Prefecture and forced the city to go to the village twenty miles away.

    Early the next morning, Chao Gai ordered his troops and horses to go to Gaotang Prefecture.

    After Liangshan soldiers and horses entered the territory of Gaotang Prefecture, the scouts sent by Gao Lian knew about it and expected that Liangshan soldiers and horses would come to attack the city today, so Gao Lian also sent people to order the troops and horses early.

    After detecting that the Liangshan army was approaching the city, Gao Lian also led the generals out of the city to prepare for the enemy.

    Gao Lian had three hundred soldiers under his command, all of whom were strong men selected by Gao Qiu from the Forbidden Army.

    The Gao family only became a big family after Gao Qiu became famous, but it is still inferior to the wealthy families that have been passed down for generations. Previously, the family was in ruins and there were not many talents in the family.

    Gao Lian was favored by Gao Qiu because he knew some martial arts and was the taller among the short ones.

    Gao Lian also put on his armor, hung up his sword, and went out of the city in full military uniform.  He led the soldiersIn the middle army, three thousand soldiers were deployed on both sides.

    Waving flags and shouting, beating drums and shouting gold, just waiting for the soldiers and horses of Liangshan to arrive.

    "Report, the soldiers and horses of Gaotang Prefecture have left the city and formed an array."

    The Liangshan army was still five miles away from the city, when a scout came to report.

    Chao Gai said with a smile: "This Gao Lian really doesn't know how to live or die. He dares to go out of the city to fight."

    Wu Yong shook his feather fan and said: "That's good. After our army defeats Gaotangzhou's soldiers and horses, we will take the opportunity to rush in. Otherwise, we will probably suffer heavy casualties when we attack the city."

    Chao Gai nodded and said: "What the military advisor said is that as long as Gao Lian is defeated, the entire army will cover up and enter the city."

    Soon, the Liangshan army arrived outside Gaotangzhou City.

    In order to prevent the soldiers and horses of Gaotang Prefecture from taking advantage of the unstable footing of the army and launching an attack, they used strong bows and crossbows to stop the formation.

    Gao Lian saw that Liangshan's army was in good order, but he was also afraid that he would lead his army to attack and disrupt his own position.

    Not long after, the Liangshan army also set up their formation.

    The two armies faced each other, with flags and drums facing each other. A chilling air filled the battlefield, making the recruits on both sides start to tremble.

    Chao Gai led the leaders to the front of the formation and reined in the horses.

    When Gao Lian saw that the leaders of Liangshan had arrived in front of the formation, he also led more than thirty officers to the gate, reined in their horses, pointed at Chao Gai and cursed: "You traitors who don't know how to die! How dare you  Come invade my city!"

    Dong Ping and Qin Ming both had hot tempers. Seeing Gao Lian yelling and scolding, they both rode forward and asked to fight.

    Lin Chong hurriedly rode forward and said: "Gao Qiu and I have a blood feud, but this guy is Gao Qiu's brother. The brothers gave me this first battle and let me express my resentment."

    Seeing what Lin Chong said, Dong Ping and Qin Ming had no choice but to retreat.

    Chao Gai saw that there was no one left to compete, so he also said: "Then I will ask Coach Lin to take the lead. I must make my name in Liangshan famous."

    "Get the order"

    Lin Chong shouted, then he leaped out of the battle with a snake spear of eight feet across, and shouted loudly: "You thief named Gao, you are just a traitor, and you only want to harm people. I, Lin Chong, was almost destroyed by Gao Qiu for no reason. Now you  He also wanted to harm Mr. Chai. It turns out that you, the Gao family, are all traitors and murderers. Today, I will kill you, the little thief. Sooner or later, I will kill you in the capital and cut your deceitful and treacherous minister, Gao Qiu, into pieces, so that I can get rid of it in my heart.  Hate. You thief, come out and die."
