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

"You don't mean you want to continue your marriage with Hu Sanniang, do you?"

Because Liangshan suddenly launched an attack.

It was naturally inappropriate for Zhu Biao to get married during this period.

The wedding, originally scheduled for these two days,

They also planned to hold the event after defeating Liangshan.

"That's right,"

Zhu Biao nodded.

"Since the thieves are after Hu Sanniang, as long as I marry her, they will definitely lose their composure and come to cause trouble."

"As long as they dare to show their faces, we can naturally take them down."

"absurd!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Long and Zhu Hu immediately shook their heads.

"With the formidable enemy of Liangshan at our doorstep, how can we get married now!"

"If there is war or violence during the wedding, wouldn't that be a terrible omen?"

Old Master Zhu was also somewhat unwilling.

"Father, eldest brother, second brother,"

Zhu Biao glanced at his father and two elder brothers.

"Don't forget, the one who had an affair with Hu Sanniang is none other than Zhao Dalang, the leader of Liangshan."

"But now, Zhao Dalang is nowhere to be seen among the Liangshan troops outside."

"Do you think it's possible that he didn't show up for Hu Sanniang's wedding?"

"Perhaps the Liangshan chieftain was just deceiving Hu Sanniang,"

Zhu Long curled his lip and said,

"Women are like clothes; once you get tired of them, you'll naturally want to change things up."

"Brother, that's the leader of Liangshan!"

Zhu Biao said coldly,

Even if he no longer loves Hu Sanniang, he would never openly allow her to marry someone else. Otherwise, if word got out in the martial arts world, how would Zhao Dalang save face?

"That's true,"

Zhu Hu nodded in agreement.

"Even if you're tired of wearing your own clothes, they're still your own clothes. Who would want to wear someone else's clothes?"

Old Master Zhu frowned and pondered for a while.

Suddenly surprised,

"Third brother, from what you're saying, do you think that Zhao Dalang from Dongjing is hiding in this Zhu Family Village right now?"

"Father, after much thought, this is the only possibility,"

Zhu Biao sneered.

"When I first met Zhao Dalang at Jingyang Ridge, he had forced his way into the area where a tiger was roaming in order to cure a woman's illness."

"Now that she's infiltrated our Zhu Family Village for the sake of that Hu Sanniang, what's so strange about that?"

········Requesting flowers·· 0

"If Zhao Dalang is really in the manor..."

Zhu Long said happily,

"If we capture him, we can not only force Liangshan to retreat, but also hand him over to the government. The reward will surely be substantial, and if we're lucky, we might even get an official position!"

"Father, let's do as Third Brother says!"

Zhu Hu was also tempted.

Although Old Master Zhu still felt it was somewhat risky,

But seeing that his three sons had reached a consensus

He then stopped insisting.

He nodded in agreement with Zhu Biao's idea.

........

Early in the morning,

The sun has just risen,

The Liangshan army had already reached the hilltop.

Because they knew the route of Pantuo Road beforehand.

The Liangshan army advanced with unstoppable momentum.

They walked straight out of the dense forest full of traps.

They arrived unexpectedly in front of the Zhu Family Village.

The Zhu family, consisting of four members, father and sons.

But no one expected Liangshan to arrive so quickly.

They had originally hoped that the winding path would hold Liangshan back for two or three days.

After they brought Zhao Yuan and other Liangshan spies,

After being led out of the village,

They fought against the Liangshan army again.

Little did they expect that Liangshan had already discovered the true nature of Pantuo Road.

They've arrived at the village gate so quickly.

"Father, things have come to this point, we have no choice but to proceed in two directions,"

Zhu Biao suggested,

"My eldest and second eldest brothers are defending the village walls. Although our village walls are not as good as the county city walls, they are still high and thick. As long as we focus on defense, the bandits will not be able to break through easily."

"On my side, we'll continue with last night's plan, using the marriage to lure the Liangshan spies out of the manor..."

Chapter 411 They were at odds from the root.

Outside Zhujiazhuang

Taking advantage of the cool morning air,

Xu Guanzhong led a large force of Liangshan men,

We slowly made our way up Dulonggang.

Because last night's raid failed.

Although the scouts from Zhu Family Village had noticed the movements of Liangshan,

But the Zhu family father and son were powerless to stop it.

They could only watch as the Liangshan army rode up the hill.

After leaving Pantuo Road,

We arrived at the front of Zhu Family Village.

Seeing that the journey was going smoothly,

It was still early.

Xu Guanzhong immediately set up his troops in front of the manor to meet the attack.

Perhaps it's because I suffered too much loss last night.

The soldiers of Zhujiazhuang dared not leave the village to meet the enemy.

On Liangshan side,

"Two Nine Zero"

No matter how much the vanguard Yang Zhi shouted and cursed,

The Zhu family members were like tortoises.

They simply huddled within the manor walls.

He dared not show his head at all.

"Strategist, how about we launch a full-scale attack?"

Yang Zhi cursed until his mouth was dry.

Anxiety couldn't help but creep into my heart.

"Although the walls of Zhu Family Village are not as high as the county's city walls, they are still quite tall and thick,"

Xu Guanzhong pondered for a moment and said,

"Although we brought some simple siege equipment with us, if we launch such a strong attack, the casualties will be considerable."

"But we can't just keep surrounding them like this forever, can we?"

Lu Zhishen said impatiently,

"If the Zhu Family Village refuses to fight, are we supposed to just keep besieging them forever?"

"Commander, don't be hasty,"

Hsu Kuan-chung explained with a smile,

"Brothers, don't forget that our spy chief, Brother Shi Qian, is currently in this Zhu Family Village."

"Let us surround the village from the outside for now. Once Brother Shi Qian causes chaos inside, we can launch a pincer attack and break through the Zhu Family Village in one fell swoop."

"The strategist's thinking is indeed very thorough,"

Lu Zhishen nodded in sudden realization.

"At this time, Brother Qian has been walking outside the marsh. If the strategist hadn't mentioned him, I would have almost forgotten about him."

Seeing that many leaders agreed to his plan,

Xu Guanzhong immediately recalled a large force to the dense forest of Pantuo Road.

While using the dense forest to provide shade for the soldiers to rest,

On the one hand, they cut down trees nearby to obtain timber.

To build large-scale siege weapons.

........

On the wall of Zhujiazhuang Village,

Old Master Zhu, along with his three sons, gazed at the Liangshan army formation.

"Are these Liangshan bandits really just mountain bandits?"

Old Master Zhu asked in surprise,

"Their discipline in advancing and retreating was actually much stronger than that of the government troops."

Although this old man didn't understand military strategy or warfare...

But as one lives longer,

He's always been knowledgeable and well-informed.

After watching for a while,

He immediately saw the difference between Liangshan and ordinary mountain bandits.
