Water Margin: The opening scene involves assassinating Emperor Huizong of Song and forcibly taking L

That leaves Moon Lake as the only option.

"But...but what about the young master's side..."

Zhuo Wanli hesitated for a moment.

"At a time like this, who has time to worry about these things?"

Shen Nai Lai Kui

"Let's save our lives first!"

"That's fine,"

He Tong shouted,

"Listen up, everyone! Get into Moon Lake! Get into Moon Lake!"

The Ming Cult acquired six ships.

Five ships began to move towards the estuary.

They wanted to get there before Liangshan could charge over.

They slipped into Moon Lake.

And the remaining one,

It's not about rising up in rebellion, of course.

They were the ones who were hit by the first wave of iron arrows from Liangshan.

The unluckiest ship.

The ship's sail railings had been smashed by Liangshan's iron arrows.

Even if I wanted to move, I couldn't.

Seeing that Liangshan's warships had already reached them,

The ship carried Ming Cult sailors and followers.

They no longer had the courage to continue resisting.

They all jumped into the water.

Swimming towards the shore.

"Haha, this Ming Cult is actually so useless!"

Watching the five ships flee,

And those Ming Cult members who were frantically fleeing for their lives in the water...

Ruan Xiaowu smiled smugly.

"We've only just begun,"

"They actually turned around and ran away."

"These people from the Ming Cult used to deal with ordinary people and government officials."

Ruan Xiaoqi snorted coldly.

"They never really fought,"

"How can they compare to us?"

"Alright, that's enough!"

Zhao Yuan shouted loudly,

"All boats, full speed ahead, sail into Moon Lake!"

"Yes!"

The Liangshan soldiers on the boat responded loudly in agreement.

The soldiers on the other ships nearby heard the commotion.

They all started shouting loudly together!

A dozen or so warships from Liangshan

They continued to pursue the Ming Cult's five ships.

They drove into Moon Lake...

Chapter 1249 Internal Strife

Mingzhou, Wanghai Tower

Half an hour passed quickly.

But the green forests of Jiangnan on the first floor of the hall

But they were still making a racket.

They wanted to join the Ming Cult.

Those who refused to surrender

The two groups started arguing.

They were just short of actually taking action.

And these two groups of people

As the deadline set by the Ming Cult draws ever closer...

Those willing to join the Ming Cult

But there are more and more of them.

Those who truly do not want to join the Ming Cult

Only about ten people remained.

"Old Shi, you still have elderly and young children in your village,"

A bandit who had already decided to join the Ming Cult shouted loudly,

"Have you thought this through? What if you don't surrender now?"

"If you die here, what will happen to your old mother, wife, and children?"

"Sect Leader Fang has always valued you highly. Didn't he send people to your stronghold multiple times to try and win you over?"

"If you join the Ming Cult, you will surely be highly valued in the future,"

"Why risk your life here!"

"I originally thought Fang La was a truly great man,"

This man, surnamed Shi, whose given name was Bao, was skilled in using a powerful blade that could cut through copper and iron, and also possessed the unique skill of using a meteor hammer.

Shi Baode Mountain Village is not very large among the bandit strongholds of Jiangnan.

But because he possessed excellent martial arts skills,

No one dared to provoke that village.

Fang La, of course, also had his eye on this point.

Just like with Pang Wanchun,

They also sent people to persuade Shi Bao to surrender on several occasions.

Shi Bao had actually been somewhat hesitant to begin with.

Just then,

News has arrived that the outlaws of Jiangnan are planning a gathering in Mingzhou.

He happened to be passing by when he came.

"If Fang La speaks kindly to me, I might actually join the Ming Cult,"

Shi Bao said fiercely,

"But who does things like that?"

"They actually forced people to join the Ming Cult?"

"Even if I fight with all my might today, I will only die."

"It is absolutely not as good as the Ming Cult's wish."

"Old Shi, why are you so stubborn?"

This was the man who began to persuade Shi Baode.

His name was Li Tianrun.

Although they also came to Minnesota to participate in this Green Forest Conference,

But he himself,

In fact, they had already defected to the Ming Cult long ago.

In his opinion,

The Ming Cult is so powerful,

Sooner or later, we will be able to seize the world.

Seek refuge early

Even if they don't become kings or nobles in the future,

They will never lack wealth and prosperity.

Now we need to persuade Shi Bao to surrender.

Li Tianrun naturally had his own ulterior motives as well.

All I want is for them to be by my side.

Gather more manpower,

At that time, within the Ming Cult,

It can always provide more assistance.

"The Ming Cult has over a million followers in Jiangnan,"

Even if we don't surrender today, we still managed to escape.

"How could that stronghold possibly withstand the Ming Cult?"

"This Jiangnan region, even this entire world,"

"They will definitely all become leaders of the Ming Cult in the future."

"If we surrender now, we can secure a high position and a prosperous future for our wives and children."

"Isn't it good?"

"Hmph, surrender if you want!"

Shi Bao snorted coldly.

"I just can't stand the way the Ming Cult behaves,"

"We would rather fight to the death than surrender!"

"Since you remain stubbornly unrepentant, then don't blame me for being ruthless without considering our past relationship!"

Li Tianrun sneered.

Then he shouted loudly,

"Brothers, since we all wish to join the Ming Cult,"

"Then we should at least give Master Fang a small gift when we first meet him."

"Otherwise, wouldn't it make us look like we don't know any manners!"
