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

Said in a deep voice,

"Now we just have to wait for the signal from Brother Shiqian and the others!"

.....

At this time, in Liangshan town,

Yunlong accompanied his father, Yun Tianbiao, as they walked around the small courtyard where they were stationed several times.

However, they found nothing unusual.

"Father, could it be that you're overthinking it?"

Yunlong couldn't help but say,

Yun Tianbiao did not answer his son's question.

Instead, he frowned.

Looking at the roof of the courtyard...

Chapter 763 Fire Breaks Out

"Have you sent anyone to check that place?"

Yun Tianbiao frowned and asked.

"roof?"

Yunlong asked, puzzled

"Father, you can't hide on the roof, why do you need to check?"

"Just go when I tell you to, stop talking nonsense!"

Yun Tianbiao roared angrily.

"I'll go right now,"

Yunlong gave a helpless reply.

He quickly ordered several guards to bring a ladder.

Yun Tianbiao over here,

Watching Yunlong and the others busy there,

But I don't know why.

Suddenly, a bad feeling arose.

And at this moment,

Yunlong had already climbed the ladder.

We went up to the roof of the small courtyard.

But then,

He then shouted in a panic towards Yun Tianbiao below,

"Father, Father, the roof is covered with sulfur and saltpeter, things that can start fires!"

"what?"

Yun Tianbiao was suddenly startled.

"Something to start a fire?"

He subconsciously looked around.

As far as the eye could see,

The houses and walls were all made of wood.

"It happened!"

Yun Tianbiao's heart sank.

He hurriedly shouted to Yunlong, who was still on the roof.

"Come down quickly!"

"Everyone, pack your things now!"

"Come with me to the outskirts of town to find General Huyan!"

Yunlong hurriedly climbed down the ladder.

Following closely behind Yun Tianbiao,

The father and son, along with the remaining dozen or so guards in Jingyang Town,

Walk briskly along the road out of town.

"Father, is this another ambush by Liangshan?"

"They scattered so much flammable material on the roof,"

"Does he intend to burn this town down?"

"if not?"

Yun Tianbiao spat out a few words through gritted teeth, his face contorted with rage.

"Damn Liangshan bandits, they actually want us all to perish in a sea of ​​fire!"

While talking,

The father and son, accompanied by a group of guards,

They have already left the courtyard.

Yun Tianbiao was about to send Yunlong to inform Peng Qi, the Tianmu general in charge of the town's soldiers stationed there, and Han Tao, the Hundred Victories general.

But before he could even speak,

We could already see the rooftop of a tavern not far ahead.

Tiny sparks had already appeared.

In the blink of an eye

The flame grew larger and larger.

It quickly turned into a raging fire.

And the flames above the tavern

Like a signal,

After it ignites,

Throughout the town,

Clusters of firelight,

They appeared one after another.

Then it quickly connected into one!

"Damn it! The Liangshan bandits have already made their move!"

Yun Tianbiao's face turned ashen.

Then he grabbed Yunlong.

He led a group of guards and quickly ran towards the eastern exit of the town.

"Father, we're going the wrong way!"

Yunlong quickly corrected him.

"General Huyan and his men are stationed on the west side of the town,"

"This leads to the waterside area!"

"Fool! What's the use of going to find Huyan Zhuo now!"

Yun Tianbiao cursed angrily.

"If this fire starts,"

"All ten thousand-plus infantrymen in the town will perish in the flames!"

"Only Huyan Zhuo's thousand-odd armored linked cavalry remain,"

"What good are they, no matter how powerful they are!"

"Then, so what should we do now..."

Yunlong asked in a panic.

"At this point, we have no choice but to save our own lives!"

Yun Tianbiao roared.

Yunlong dared not speak again.

He could only accompany his father and other guards.

In a panic, he ran towards the pond behind the town.

.....

Meanwhile, in the town at this time,

The soldiers who noticed the fire were unaware of the severity of the situation.

They were unaware that all these fires were premeditated by Liangshan.

They assumed it was an accidental fire.

Everyone was in a panic.

They searched everywhere for buckets to put out the fire!

But on the houses in this small town,

The area had already been covered with various flammable materials scattered by Liangshan.

Under the night breeze

Fire moves with the wind.

In less than half an incense stick's time,

The fire had already spread to most of the town.

The soldiers were still frantically trying to put out the fire.

And then,

The two generals in charge of the town's garrison were Peng Qi, the general of Tianmu, and Han Tao, the general of Baisheng.

They finally realized something was wrong.

"Old Peng, how did the fire get so big all of a sudden?"

Han Tao said in surprise,

"Damn it, this fire was probably set by those Liangshan bandits!"

Peng Qi smelled the sulfur and saltpeter emanating from the flames.

He was so angry that he started cursing.

"Damn Yun Tianbiao, didn't he say he had already checked the town?!"

"So much sulfur and saltpeter, is he blind?! He didn't even notice!"

"What's the point of saying all this now!"

Han Tao said anxiously,

"It's too late to put out the fire!"
