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

This naturally filled Yun Tianbiao with resentment!

Just as the Yun family father and son were bidding farewell to the generals of various prefectures in Shandong...

Preparing to leave the central command tent,

When returning to their camp,

The soldiers from Dongchang Prefecture also returned to their camp.

Its general, Zhang Qing, the Featherless Arrow, rode at the very front.

The deputy general was ordered to lead the soldiers back to camp.

Zhang Qing arrived alone at the central command tent.

Seeing Yun Tianbiao and his son,

He had just opened his mouth to say hello

Unexpectedly, he saw Yun Tianbiao glare at him resentfully.

Then he turned and left with his son Yunlong.

These two, father and son, are truly ungrateful wretches...

Zhang Qing couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Even if he ultimately couldn't help,

But at least I took the initiative to postpone my trip to help them.

But the father and son initially suspected that he was trying to steal their credit.

Later, because he hadn't been able to help,

He was filled with resentment!

Sigh, I acted impulsively before!

The arrow without feathers felt a pang of regret.

People like Yun Tianbiao and his son, who are cold-blooded and selfish,

The best way,

It means avoiding contact with them from beginning to end.

But for Zhang Qing,

It's too late to regret it now!

With mixed feelings,

The featherless arrow entered the central command tent.

"General Huyan!"

After Zhang Qing performed the ceremony,

Then he saw Huyan Zhuo looking at him with a strange expression.

"General, what's wrong?"

"General Zhang, were your soldiers bound and whipped by Chief Steward Yun's men?"

Huyan Zhuo asked.

"That's true,"

Zhang Qing nodded without hesitation.

"After that, did you fall behind the speed of General Yun's vanguard?"

Huyan Zhuo continued to ask.

".....yes!"

Zhang Qing frowned.

"But General, this is because..."

"Wait until I finish asking your question,"

Huyan Zhuo interrupted the words of the Featherless Arrow.

"Afterwards, Chief Steward Yun encountered an ambush,"

"His son, Yunlong, has asked you for help,"

"Did you stop in your tracks just because a small group of Liangshan soldiers were blocking your way?"

"That...that's definitely true,"

Zhang Qing asked in confusion,

"But General, at that time, Liangshan had planted many flags on the mountainside,"

"This humble general fears that, like Commander Yun, we too may fall into Liangshan's ambush,"

"That's why we temporarily halted our advance, wanting to wait until we had a clear understanding of the situation of the Liangshan ambush before heading to rescue General Yun."

"Is that right?"

Huyan Zhuo shook his head.

What Yun Tianbiao just said...

He repeated the story of the Featherless Arrow.

Zhang Qing dared to stop halfway.

He was already so angry that his face turned ashen.

After Huyan Zhuo finished speaking,

The Featherless Arrow immediately retorted angrily.

"General Huyan, I have been wronged!"

"This is all Yun Tianbiao's attempt to shirk responsibility for the defeat,"

"That's why they deliberately shifted all the blame onto me..."

Chapter 751 Atonement Through Merit

"This humble general was ordered by the general to go and escort Commander Yun back at the time,"

Zhang Qing explained,

"Then he immediately dispatched soldiers to inform Yun Tianbiao."

"Who knew that after hearing this, that fellow thought I was trying to steal credit from them, father and son."

"Not only did he tie up the soldiers he sent to deliver the message, but he also beat them up,"

"They even immediately sped up their march, trying to shake off this humble general!"

"Most of the soldiers under my command in Dongchang Prefecture are infantry."

"If we only focus on getting there like we did in Jingyang Town, even if we reach the town of Liangshan, we won't have any fighting strength left!"

"Therefore, I continued to follow Jingyang Town at the normal marching speed."

.....

"Because the soldiers lying in ambush fired very few arrows,"

"Only then did I learn that there was an ambush on the mountainside, but Liangshan was just bluffing."

"Having confirmed this, I immediately ordered my soldiers to rush over the ambush at Liangshan and go to reinforce Jingyang Town!"

"Who knew that after walking less than two miles, they saw Yun Tianbiao leading more than a dozen guards back in a disheveled state."

"This humble general only learned of it now, in just over half an hour,"

"The three thousand soldiers of Jingyang Town were all ambushed and wiped out by Liangshan..."

Explain everything clearly.

Zhang Qing said angrily.

"General Huyan, I swear that everything I have said is true!"

"...That's what Steward Yun said just now,"

Huyan Zhuo said expressionlessly,

This effectively shut down any attempt by the Featherless Arrow to defend himself.

"General Huyan, so you believe Yun Tianbiao's words?"

Zhang Qing gritted his teeth and asked,

Huyan Zhuo slowly shook his head.

A look of joy immediately appeared on the face of the man without feathers.

Before he could speak,

Huyan Zhuo shook his head and said,

"I don't completely trust you either!"

"But, General Huyan, this humble general..."

Zhang Qing wanted to say something more.

Huyan Zhuo interrupted him directly,

"Your soldiers were brutally beaten by Yun Tianbiao and his men,"

"After that, you kept slowing down the march. Can you honestly say there wasn't any selfish motive behind that?"

"This humble general..."

Zhang Qing opened his mouth,

Faced with Huyan Zhuo's questioning gaze,

In the end, he could only lower his head in shame.

"I'm sorry, General Huyan,"

"At the time, I only thought that a delay would at most cause the Jingyang Town troops to suffer greater losses, but who knew..."

"Ugh....."

Hearing with his own ears that the Featherless Arrow admitted his problem...

Huyan Zhuo sighed deeply.

He sat back in his commanding seat, feeling rather disheartened.

Although I had long known that the generals in Shandong had many problems.

But Huyan Zhuo didn't expect that...

Even Zhang Qing, whom he admired the most,

How could someone make such a mistake!

"General Huyan, this humble general admits his guilt,"

Zhang Qing knelt down and fell to the ground.

Unlike a shameless person like Yun Tianbiao,

The Featherless Arrow readily admitted his mistake.

This brought a touch of joy to Huyan Zhuo's heart.

"Rise, General Zhang,"

Huyan Zhuo said helplessly,

"I have already allowed Yun Tianbiao to redeem himself through meritorious service, so how can I punish you further!"
