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

Every inch of land in a strategic location must be fought for.

They used human lives to stop the Liang army.

However, they held off the Liang army in Xiangyuan for more than ten days.

It has reached its limit.

The Liang army has advanced its vanguard to the outskirts of Xiangyuan City.

Yesterday, Qin Ming led his troops to attack Xiangyuan City.

However, it would be beneficial for Yingniang to lead her troops out of the city.

The flying stone knocked Qin Ming off his horse.

They were captured alive and brought into the city.

A commander of ten thousand was lost.

The Liang army's offensive finally ceased.

The garrison commander of Xiangyuan's south gate was Ye Qing, the head of Yingniang's household when she was a child.

There were originally three generals guarding Xiangyuan City.

The chief general is Xu Wei, and the deputy generals are Ye Qing and Sheng Ben.

When the Liang army captured Zezhou,

Wei Shengtian Hu then sent the emperor's brother-in-law, Wu Li, with troops to provide assistance.

When Ye Qing learned that the Prince of Liang of Daliang had led his troops,

He then took his wife, Lady An, to Yingniang's residence.

Everyone in the city knew that Ye Qing was the head of Yingniang's household when she was young.

It's not surprising that the two families have dealings.

Even Wu Li only knew that Ye Qing and Ying Niang had this kind of relationship.

Little did they know that Yingniang's biological parents had been killed by Tian Hu.

Yingniang was practicing martial arts in the courtyard.

Upon seeing Ye Qing and his wife arrive,

He hurriedly invited the two to the back courtyard to talk.

The three entered the inner courtyard.

Ye Qing then watched as Yingniang dismissed the servants.

Yingniang found an excuse,

Send the servants away.

"Uncle Ye, do you have any instructions?"

Ye Qing asked, "Young master, have you heard that the Prince of Liang of Great Liang has led his troops to Longde Prefecture?"

Yingniang said, "I've been practicing martial arts in the courtyard all day."

"But we received no news."

"News came from Wasion yesterday,"

"It is said that the King of Liang of the Great Liang led 10,000 troops and conquered Xizhou,"

"The three kings of Jinzhou led 20,000 troops to block our way,"

"Instead, they were utterly defeated by the King of Liang."

"Tian Bao has also dispatched Commander Sun An with 20,000 troops to reinforce us,"

"We want to keep the Liang army at Xiangyuan."

"I didn't expect the Prince of Liang to arrive so quickly,"

"As expected of the elite troops who wiped out the Western Xia."

Ye Qing nodded and said, "The soldiers of Liang are brave and valiant."

"King Liang is also highly respected,"

"I'm afraid it's just that the Prince of Liang has personally gone to the front lines,"

"This will increase the fighting strength of the Liang soldiers by a few points."

"Moreover, the King of Liang brought ten thousand elite troops with him,"

"The fall of Xiangyuan is imminent,"

"Tian Hu will also not escape disaster."

"To avenge my master, I will submit to the King of Liang."

Yingniang frowned and said,

"I've been thinking about this for a while now,"

"They only wounded the soldiers of the Great Liang, but did not kill them."

"It was only yesterday that Qin Ming was knocked off his horse,"

"But Qin Ming was snatched away by the general in front of the emperor's brother-in-law."

"Qin Ming was captured because of me,"

“If we go to Daliang, we might end up losing it to them.”

Ye Qing said, "Qin Ming was only imprisoned in the city jail."

"As long as the young master protects him well."

Yingniang asked, "Uncle Ye, what's your plan?"

"We've invested in the main beam,"

"You can let the Liang troops into the city through the south gate that I'm guarding,"

"The young master will find a pretext to get into prison,"

"Protect Qin Ming."

"We surrendered Xiangyuan,"

"The matter of the young master injuring the general of Daliang will naturally be let go."

"At that time, I will follow the King of Liang."

"It's not difficult to kill your enemy."

Yingniang thought for a moment and said, "The Liang camp has already pressed against the city walls."

"They will not face too much difficulty in breaking through Xiangyuan,"

"Why don't we wait for reinforcements to arrive?"

"By surrendering the city again, we can show our sincerity."

Ye Qing said, "What the young master says is true."

"However, we can send someone to contact the Liang army first,"

“When Sun Wu entered the city, he surrendered Xiangyuan.”

Yingniang nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Uncle Ye."

"Thanks to Uncle Ye,"

"I only just found out who the enemy was who killed my parents,"

"He also learned martial arts."

"Otherwise, one can only live a muddled life."

When he got emotional,

Tears welled up in her eyes.

Ye Qing said, "My master treated me well before."

"Of course I must protect my little master's safety."

"Heaven has taken pity on me and let me know the reason for my master's death,"

"It is to help my young master avenge his master."

"These are all things that petty people do, petty..."

"Why should the master be so formal?"

Thinking of the misfortunes of the old master and his wife, Ye Qing's wife, Madam An,

He couldn't help but hug Yingniang.

She started to cry.

Yingniang also inherited her mother's appearance.

She was born with stunning beauty.

Chapter 1666 Collaboration from Within and Without

However, the woman was too beautiful...

Most of the time, it's not a blessing.

If it weren't for the stunning beauty of Yingniang's mother,

Tian Hu would not have killed his father.

They wanted to capture his mother and take her back to be their bandit queen.

If Yingniang's mother had been an ordinary woman,

Tian Hu most likely only robbed people of their valuables.

They won't kill people randomly anymore.

Although the couple lost money,

But they won't lose their lives.

When Yingniang grew up,

There was a constant stream of suitors.

Among them were many powerful figures from Tian Hu's puppet state of Jin.

This is why Wu Li was forced to prepare for choosing a husband.

Yingniang only threatened to kill herself.

Wu Li was reluctant to part with Ying Niang's martial arts skills.

That's why he refused everyone's offer.

Ye Qing saw the two of them hugging and crying.

"I'll be able to avenge my master soon,"

"Don't show any emotion,"

"To avoid being noticed as odd."

Upon hearing this, the two

Only then did he wipe away his tears.

Ye Qing and his wife did not dare to stay too long.

After lingering for a while,

He then took his leave.
