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

Zhao Yuan nodded and said, "Impressive martial arts."

"After we get ashore, have that boy come to see me."

Yue Fei only killed a dozen or so people.

Zong Ze's troops were overwhelmed by the new recruits who surrounded them from all sides.

Without the Song army blocking their way,

The Liang troops quickly landed.

Yue Fei had just returned to his headquarters.

Then he saw a quartermaster under his command, beaming with joy, escorting the old general.

"Captain, this fellow is Zong Ze, the general leading troops of the puppet Song dynasty."

Yue Fei nodded and said, "You can tell it's Zong Ze just by looking at the banner behind him."

The soldiers had long known that Yue Fei would achieve great merit.

After all, Yue Fei's martial arts skills were unparalleled in the entire army.

Although I don't know how they compare to the veterans of Liangshan,

However, they won first place in the new army's grand competition.

They just didn't expect that the army had just crossed the river...

This allowed Yue Fei to achieve great merit.

Yue Fei led his troops forward for a while.

This leaves room for the troops behind to land.

I just saw the Liang King's dragon flag land.

Then a veteran soldier rode up on horseback and shouted,

Where are the people who captured Zong Ze alive?

The group saw that the newcomer had white clouds embroidered on his chest.

They also knew they were the personal guards of the King of Liang.

They couldn't help but look at Yue Fei with envy.

All the soldiers of the Great Liang army wore pure black uniforms.

Only the Imperial Guards and the Prince of Liang's personal guards had white clouds embroidered on their chests.

Distinguishing it from other troops,

It is derived from the phrase "clouds follow the dragon".

The Imperial Guards were the emperor's personal guards.

The soldiers appearing here are naturally the personal guards of the King of Liang.

Yue Fei clasped his hands in greeting and said, "Yue Fei is here."

The guards on horseback, who had also witnessed Yue Fei's martial arts skills, nodded in agreement.

"King Liang has ordered you to take Zong Ze to see him. Come with me."

"Yes!"

Yue Fei personally escorted Zong Ze, who was bound hand and foot.

They followed the Liang King's personal guards toward the Dragon Flag.

In a short while, they arrived at the Liang King's place.

Surrounded by white clouds and guarded by personal soldiers,

The golden dragon in the middle is baring its fangs and brandishing its claws.

The strategist behind him

The four generals surrounded him.

Chapter 1767 Zong Ze is Captured

Yue Fei, surrounded by onlookers,

They walked to a point more than ten feet in front of King Liang.

He stopped in his tracks, cupped his hands in greeting, and said...

"Yue Fei pays his respects to the King of Liang."

Zhao Yuan heard it was Yue Fei.

Somewhat unexpected,

He couldn't help but take a closer look.

Tall and imposing, with a handsome appearance

Despite his young age, he is very composed.

Zhao Yuan remained silent for a long time.

Yue Fei then bowed with his hands clasped in greeting.

There was not a trace of unease on his face.

Li Kui, standing behind, was so anxious he was grimacing.

He tried to speak several times,

Xu Guanzhong stopped them all with a wink.

Zhao Yuan sized him up for a while.

Seeing that Yue Fei's expression remained unchanged, he praised him.

"Good, as expected of Lu Junyi and Lin Chong's junior brother,"

"Not only is his martial arts skill outstanding,"

"His composure is comparable to that of veteran generals."

"You deserve the greatest credit for this pacification of the Southern Song Dynasty,"

"Promoted to captain, rewarded with 100 strings of cash."

Yue Fei was promoted to colonel.

A hint of joy appeared on his face as he clasped his hands in greeting.

"Thank you, King Liang."

Zhao Yuan turned to his personal guards behind him and said,

"Bring all my horses here."

The Great Liang dynasty destroyed the Western Xia and seized a large number of fine horses.

Aside from his favorite Jade Lion, Zhao Yuan

There are five more good horses available.

Everyone watched as the Prince of Liang's personal guards led in five horses.

Everyone was extremely envious.

Although these five horses cannot compare to the Jade Lion Shining at Night,

But they are all top-quality horses, one in a million.

Zhao Yuan smiled at Yue Fei,

"You may choose any one of these five horses."

Yue Fei saw five warhorses, each one a masterpiece of craftsmanship.

It's hard to look away.

Suppressing the desire in his heart, he cupped his hands and said,

"How could this humble general possibly take away what the King of Liang loves?"

Zhao Yuan patted the neck of the Jade Lion beneath him and laughed.

"The only jade lion I like is the one that shines at night."

"The other horses are just backups."

"Just pick one."

Yue Fei, seeing what the Prince of Liang said,

Then he cupped his hands and said...

"Thank you for the generous gift from King Liang."

Yue Fei glanced at him briefly.

He then chose a white horse.

Yue Fei retreated.

Zhao Yuan then jumped off his horse.

He personally untied Zong Ze.

Zong Ze dodged aside.

"I was born a subject of the Song Dynasty, and I will die a ghost of the Song Dynasty."

"If captured today, death is the only outcome."

"We will absolutely not surrender,"

"You don't need to go to that trouble."

Zhao Yuan was not displeased.

He resolutely walked up behind Zong Ze.

He untied the ropes and laughed.

"I have long heard that Lord Zong loves his people like his own children,"

"This time, I must bring Lord Zong back to the court."

"To benefit all people under heaven."

"The people are all eagerly awaiting Lord Zong's return to officialdom,"

"I urge Lord Zong to set aside petty interests for the greater good."

Zong Ze cupped his hands and said, "I also greatly admire the actions of the King of Liang."

"But I have been receiving a salary from the Song dynasty for thirty years,"

"To be unable to save a collapsing building is already incompetence."

"How can I possibly switch allegiance to the Great Liang, which destroyed the Song Dynasty? I cannot comply."

Zhao Yuan said, "The world originally belonged to all people."

"The royal family is merely helping the people govern the world."

"Who has betrayed the people of the world?"

"The world will abandon him,"

“Choose a new royal.”

"The salaries of officials all come from the people of the land,"

"Your loyalty should be to all people under heaven."

"Instead of a particular royal family."
