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

But Song Jiang plotted against him.

But there's always been a knot in my heart.

Since going up Qingfeng Mountain,

He also maintained close relationships with old acquaintances such as Chao Gai.

He rarely paid any attention to Song Jiang anymore.

And then there are the two brothers, Kongming and Kongliang.

Their Kong Family Village was destroyed by Wu Song, the second son of Liangshan.

up to now,

Wu Song was still stationed on White Tiger Mountain near Kongjiazhuang.

They are arresting members of the Kong family who committed atrocities in Kongjiazhuang.

The brothers Kongming and Kongliang knew this very well.

Once the two entered Liangshan Marsh...

Even with Chao Gai's influence,

I'm afraid Zhao Dalang from Tokyo will definitely kill the two of them too.

So they all quickly became cowards.

It was just hidden in a corner.

They didn't dare utter a sound.

Chao Gai looked at the many leaders who spoke up one after another.

He nodded happily.

In his opinion,

Many of these brothers were willing to accompany Song Jiang to help Liangshan fight against the government troops.

That's clearly a sign of deep loyalty!

"Chief, someone still needs to stay behind to guard Qingfeng Mountain,"

Wu Yong then suggested,

"In my humble opinion, why don't we let Magistrate Hua and Brother Liu Tang accompany Brother Gongming to Liangshan Marsh?"

"The two of them, one skilled in archery and the other in foot combat, will surely be able to help Liangshan!"

"Well, that's fine, let's do as the strategist says."

Chao Gai gave the order,

"Then let Brother Hua Rong and Brother Liu Tang make the difficult journey to accompany Brother Gongming to help Liangshan defeat the government troops!"

.....

Qingfeng Mountain Gathering Hall

After the candidates to go to Liangshan were determined,

The crowd then dispersed.

And Song Jiang,

Just as I stepped out of the Hall of Gathering Righteousness,

He couldn't wait any longer and pulled Wu Yong to a corner.

"Mr. Jialiang, why did you just now...?"

Song Jiang hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping himself.

Wu Yong smiled slightly.

"Brother Gongming, are you perhaps wondering why I suggested that you go to Liangshan Marsh?"

"That's right,"

Song Jiang nodded dejectedly.

"You know perfectly well that I've never gotten along with that Liangshan chieftain,"

"This journey may bring unpredictable fortune..."

Chapter 683 We Must Go!

"Brother Gongming, do not worry,"

Wu Yong confidently waved the feather fan in his hand.

"In my humble opinion, Brother Gongming's journey to Liangshan will not only be safe and sound,"

"This also provides an opportunity for all the heroes of the world to witness Brother Gongming's unparalleled righteousness,"

"It will only benefit and harm Brother Gongming's future important matters!"

"Oh, why do you say that?"

Song Jiang was somewhat puzzled.

"Brother Gongming, your trip to Liangshan Marsh is because Liangshan is being besieged by government troops,"

Wu Yong explained with a light laugh.

"Brother Gongming's trip is a timely help, assisting Liangshan in repelling the enemy!"

"Even if the leader of Liangshan is at odds with Brother Gongming, why would he harm him at this time!"

"If he were to actually do such a thing, wouldn't he be repaying kindness with enmity, and destined to be ridiculed by all the heroes of the world?"

"Um,"

Song Jiang nodded.

"The scholar is right."

"Besides, I'm sure you understand the current situation in Shandong,"

Wu Yong continued,

"The Liangshan Marsh was the most powerful force in Shandong."

"Compared to Qingfeng Mountain, its power is like the blazing sun and the bright moon, incomparable."

"Among the heroes of the greenwood, those who find heroes from all over the land, even those who are willing to join forces, often go to Liangshan."

"If Qingfeng Mountain continues like this, when will my brother be able to realize his great ambitions?"

"Sir, you are right!"

Song Jiang nodded repeatedly as he listened.

If Qingfeng Mountain also had the prestige of Liangshan...

Why did he have to resort to underhanded tactics in the first place?

They forced Zhu Tong, the Bearded Gentleman, and Lei Heng, the Winged Tiger, to become outlaws.

"This time, Liangshan Marsh was besieged and suppressed by the imperial army."

Wu Yong analyzed,

"All the heroes of the world are surely watching the movements of the marshland."

"If Brother Gongming can achieve great merit on his trip to Liangshan, he will surely be regarded with respect by heroes all over the world."

"At that time, Qingfeng Mountain will surely see its reputation soar as well."

"So that's how it is,"

Song Jiang said with delight,

"With Brother Hua Rong's divine archery skills, he will surely achieve something on the battlefield."

"Furthermore, Brother Gongming's trip to Liangshan can also serve as an opportunity to investigate the true nature of that marshland,"

Wu Yong said in a deep voice,

"Liangshan, with its surrounding waters spanning eight hundred li, is inherently easy to defend and difficult to attack, making it challenging to ascertain the true strength of the waters."

"And after Zhao Dalang took over Liangshan, the precautions became even more stringent."

"At present, we have no idea what the situation is like at Liangshan in that marshland."

"Brother Gongming's ambitions are completely contrary to those of Liangshan,"

Sooner or later, there will be a struggle between the two sides.

"We are completely unaware of even the internal situation of Liangshan,"

"How can we possibly win in the future!"

"Therefore, when Brother Gongming goes to Liangshan this time, he must wander around the marshland more."

Even if we can't learn the secrets of Liangshan, it's always good to know more about the terrain and dangers for the people and soldiers.

"Mr. Jialiang, rest assured,"

Song Jiang chuckled.

"I was unaware of your intentions, sir, which is why I was unwilling to go to Liangshan."

"Now that you've analyzed it so thoroughly, even if King Chao doesn't want me to go, I have no choice but to go!"

.....

All matters were arranged properly.

the next day,

Accompanied by Hua Rong and Liu Tang, Song Jiang

With about twenty henchmen

Descend the mountain via the Qingfeng Mountain trail

They bypassed the foot of the mountain and obtained the Qingzhou troops.

They headed towards Liangshan.

Chapter 684 Huyan Zhuo

Just as Song Jiang and his men were rushing towards Liangshan Marsh,

Zhao Yuan had already taken the lead over Gao Liang and Qiong Ying.

They returned to Liangshan.

What happened in Dongping Prefecture

The problem has been largely resolved.

But in order for things to go smoothly afterwards,

Cheng Wanli's family,

They cannot leave the prefect's residence for the time being.

They couldn't even leave the backyard of the government office.

In other words, ...

They were essentially under house arrest in the prefect's mansion.

The reason Zhao Yuan did this

Actually, it was all for Cheng Wanli's own good.

They wanted to wait until the imperial army arrived.

They were still able to protect the people of Dongping Prefecture.
