Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

The capital of the Song Dynasty, Wanbaolou.

Wanbaolou was originally a restaurant in the capital, and it was quite famous in the city.

Later, the manager of Wanbaolou got into some trouble, and in order to raise money to avoid trouble, he had no choice but to sell Wanbaolou.

Anyway, there are many people doing business in the capital. Some make money and some lose money. It's normal to make money, and it's even more normal to lose money.

After the new manager of Wanbaolou arrived, the restaurant's business not only did not get worse, but got better and better.

One very important reason is that this new manager can sing, and he sings very well!

In Tokyo, there are many people who can sing. Many of them sing in restaurants, and many of them have accumulated wealth through singing and have started to do some business.

Therefore, while the common people were somewhat curious about the new manager of Wanbaolou who could sing, they didn't pay too much attention to him.

But no one expected that the new owner of Wanbaolou would be such a good singer! Under his management, Wanbaolou's business flourished!

Especially in the last year or so, the Le Ping Le Dajia has made a name for itself in the capital. If you come to the capital and don't go to Wanbaolou to hear Le Ping Le Dajia sing a song, then you've wasted your trip!

Of course, Wanbaolou is now booming, and it's not so easy to see Le Dajia anymore. Apart from when she performs on stage in public, you have to be a VIP of Wanbaolou to hear her sing a song!

"Top-tier private room! One VIP guest!"

For example, Gao Kan, who is now walking into Wanbaolou, is a VIP of Wanbaolou and has his own private room.

"Oh, isn't this Lord Gao? You're here so early today? Would you like a girl to keep you company?"

When the hostess saw Gao Kan enter, she immediately greeted him with a beaming smile.

"What are you saying? I'm here today to listen to everyone sing."

"Master Gao really knows his stuff! Our manager's tune is absolutely amazing, it's the best in the capital! Everyone who hears it raves about it! Isn't that right..."

"Granny, I understand. It's not like this is my first time listening to this. In that case, we need a table full of outstanding talents!"

Gao Kan smiled and then took out two large silver ingots from his pocket and placed them in the old woman's hand.

"Alright! The gathering of heroes is arranged! Master Gao, please wait a moment, I'll go find the manager right away!"

After the nanny left, a maid came to guide Gao Kan to his private room and asked the kitchen staff to expedite the preparation of his food.

After Gao Kan went inside, he sat down and waited. Not long after, Manager Yue from Wanbaolou came in.

"What a rare guest, Lord Gao."

Le He, using the alias Le Ping, greeted Gao Kan as soon as he entered.

"What you're saying, Mr. Le, is quite something. I've been here three or five times already, so am I considered a rare guest? Come on, Mr. Le, have a seat. Your building is truly a gathering of outstanding people."

"Alright, you can all leave now. Oh, and Xiao Li, go and keep watch at the door. Don't let anyone disturb me and Lord Gao."

Looking at the dishes Gao Kan ordered, Le He understood that Gao Kan had something to discuss with him, so he immediately waved to dismiss the maids in the room and sent his personal guard to keep an eye on things.

These guards were, of course, men from Dayi.

After the unrelated personnel left, Le He stood at the door for a while to make sure everything was normal before turning to look at Gao Kan.

With that turn, he was no longer the very amiable karaoke shop owner; he suddenly exuded a strange aura.

"Du Fei greets Commander Yue."

Gao Kan, or rather Du Fei, stood up and bowed to Le Ping.

"Du Fei, no need for formalities, just tell me, what's going on?"

"Commander Yue, please just call me Gao Kan. After all, we are still in Tokyo City, and I have something really important to discuss."

When Gao Kan heard his real name, a glint flashed in his eyes.

Having played Gao Kan for quite some time, to be honest, when he suddenly heard the name Du Fei, he felt a little disoriented.

"Alright, Gao Kan, then you go ahead and say it."

"Commander Yue, the Prince and his men should have captured Tokyo, the capital of Liao. The Liao people think it was Zhao Song who did it, so they sent an envoy here to ask about the situation."

Gao Kan reported to Le He.

"Well, it's not a big deal. If it's really believed that Zhao Song did it, it's normal for them to send people. Come, have some tea."

Lehe sat down and poured tea for Gao Kan.

"Yes, there was nothing wrong with this matter originally, but the envoy who came was actually a die-hard loyalist of the Song Dynasty. He was thinking of tipping off the Song Dynasty in the hope that the Song Dynasty could destroy the Liao Dynasty."

"Huh? There's such a thing?"

Lehe was also surprised. He never expected that even in the state of the Song Dynasty, there would still be people willing to risk their lives for it.

"Yes, he also wrote a plan. Commander Yue, take a look..."

Gao Kan handed a document to Le He, which was a copy of Ma Zhi's plan.

"The plan was very meticulous, and he made a lot of preparations. This person is not simple."

Lehe glanced at Ma Zhi's plan, and at first glance, he felt that the plan had really been in preparation for a long time.

"Yes, and Zhao Ji agreed to this plan."

"Ok?"

Le He was also taken aback. Why would Zhao Ji agree to this plan?

"Yes, I was also surprised, but Zhao Ji really agreed. He even took the initiative to ask to meet the envoy."

Gao Kan was also surprised; he hadn't expected Zhao Ji to have such ambitions to destroy Liao.

What exactly did they discuss?

"There haven't been any specific discussions yet. The envoy is still staying at the official post station, and my men are watching him."

"However, based on today's meeting, I dare to speculate that Emperor Huizong may intend to make a northern tour."

Gao Kan made his own speculation.

"Zhao Ji's northern tour?"

Lehe felt that he had been shocked by too many things today.

Listen to what he's saying, Zhao Ji! He actually wants to make a northern tour!

Are you kidding me? Emperor Huizong of Song actually had such thoughts?

"Yes, but these are all just my guesses. The specifics will depend on the subsequent discussions. However, I'm not sure if Emperor Huizong will allow me to be present for such an important matter."

Gao Kan stated that these were all his speculations.

“Very good, Gao Kan, this intelligence is very important. I will send someone to send a message back home. If Zhao Ji really intends to lead troops on a northern tour, then we need to make a plan.”

Le He said that if Zhao Ji really intends to lead troops on a northern tour, then Dayi will have to adjust its tactical layout.

"Yes, Commander. What do I need to do?"

"Try to stay with Zhao Ji or that envoy the whole time. If you have any specific intelligence, contact me immediately. However, we can't meet too often. Let our trusted confidants come instead."

"By the way, what does Tong Guan mean this time?"

"Commander Yue, Tong Guan is quite supportive of Zhao Ji's northern tour this time. He even offered to accompany him."

"That old rascal Tong Guan is planning to take advantage of both sides."

Lehe made a joke about it.

"Let alone Tong Guan, although Cai Jing and Tong Guan were at odds, this time, he also supported Zhao Ji's northern tour."

Gao Kan smiled. Tong Guan was alright, but Cai Jing, who had always opposed Tong Guan, agreed this time, which Gao Kan found a bit strange.

"Cai Jing supports the Northern Tour? Will he go or not?"

Lehe also discovered the problem.

"Commander Yue, what are you saying? Cai Jing is just an old man who doesn't understand military affairs. How can he be in charge..."

Gao Kan answered instinctively, but before he could finish speaking, he suddenly froze.

"Yes, what is Cai Jing going to do?"

Lehe looked at Gao Kan and nodded with a smile.

"Keep a close eye on them. I'll contact our hometown immediately. We must be able to react instantly to any sign of trouble..."
