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

"No feathered arrow?"

Qiong Ying exclaimed in surprise,

"I remember my brother saying that he, like me, used flying stones as hidden weapons?"

"Um,"

Wen Huanzhang nodded.

"It was at night that he used flying stones to knock out Shi Jin and Yang Chun, who were escorting Huyan Zhuo."

"How could Shi Dalang be so careless?"

Lu Zhishen complained.

He hurriedly asked again,

"What about the two of them? Are they badly injured?"

"Thankfully, they've both woken up."

Wen Huanzhang replied,

"You'll be fine after a day or two of rest."

He briefly recounted the events of the battle at the foot of the mountain.

Wen Huanzhang then spoke.

"Then Huyan Zhuo's two deputy generals, Peng Qi, the Heavenly Eye General, and Han Tao, the Hundred Victories General,"

"They've already been taken up the mountain."

"As for Huyan Zhuo and Zhang Qing, Instructor Lin has already led a cavalry unit to Dongchang Prefecture to search for them,"

"As for the others, search the vicinity of West Town."

"Damn it! If it weren't for Zhang Qing, we would have won a great victory this time!"

Lu Zhishen was somewhat helpless.

"The battlefield is unpredictable; this time, we were able to decisively defeat 20,000 government troops with fewer than a thousand casualties."

Wen Huanzhang laughed,

"This is already a remarkable victory!"

"As for Huyan Zhuo and Zhang Qing, their minor flaws are nothing to worry about."

"Strategist Wen, shall we celebrate on the mountain?"

Hua Xiaomei asked.

"Celebrate! Why not celebrate!"

Wen Huanzhang waved his hand.

"I'll take charge of this matter."

"Slaughter more chickens, ducks, cattle, and sheep so that the people in the mountains can all have some meat and have some fun with us."

"You can rest assured this is the strategist,"

Du Qian immediately patted his chest and assured him,

"I promise that everyone on the mountain will be able to eat meat..."

Chapter 779 City Building

The mountain stronghold celebrated its great victory with a banquet.

After everything was arranged,

Wen Huanzhang finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.

At this time,

"I am the Vajra in the Clouds," Song Wan inquired.

"Strategist Wen, what should we do with Peng Qi and Han Tao? Should we just keep them locked up like this?"

"Judging from the chieftain's expression, he most likely wants to persuade them to surrender,"

Wen Huanzhang pondered for a moment and said,

"Find an empty courtyard and lock them up, take good care of them for now,"

"Let's deal with it when the chieftain returns."

"OK,"

Song Wan nodded.

"By the way, what about those captured government and military prisoners?"

"Should we prepare a place to imprison them in the mountain stronghold?"

"We don't need this."

Wen Huanzhang shook his head.

"The silver mine at Qingyun Mountain is short-handed,"

"Most of these government troops prisoners will be sent there to mine."

All the miscellaneous tasks were arranged properly.

After sending all the leaders to do their work,

The gathering hall was just a lively and bustling place a moment ago.

It immediately became quiet.

Wen Huanzhang finally relaxed completely.

I couldn't help but raise my arm.

Stretched.

Seeing this, Lu Zhishen, who was standing nearby, laughed.

"Now that the government troops have been defeated, Military Advisor Wen, you can finally get a good night's sleep."

It turns out that all this time,

Faced with the encirclement and suppression by 20,000 government troops,

Although Liangshan gained many leaders

They all had great confidence in Liangshan.

But faced with such a large-scale encirclement and suppression,

But it was still the first time.

Not to mention the various military leaders,

Even the three strategists, Wen Huanzhang, Xu Guanzhong, and Zhu Wu,

They couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

They could only frequently discuss the details of various strategies all night long.

It is imperative to ensure that everything goes perfectly smoothly, from beginning to end.

This time,

The reason why Liangshan was able to easily defeat the government troops was...

It can be said that Wen Huanzhang and his two strategists deserve the greatest credit.

Without their tireless efforts throughout the night,

The plan to burn down Xizhen was successful.

It will not be formulated.

Lu Zhishen was also aware of these things.

That's why I spoke up to persuade Wen Huanzhang to rest.

"Let's work one more night,"

Wen Huanzhang rubbed his face.

"Let's clean up the ruins of West Town tomorrow,"

"The reconstruction of West Town will begin the day after tomorrow,"

"These are things that can't be delayed!"

"It must be arranged tonight to avoid any mishaps."

"My brother and I don't know why we had to build a stone town,"

Lu Zhishen scratched his bald head.

"In my opinion, we can just burn one wooden structure and build another one made of wood, wouldn't that solve the problem?"

"Chief Zhao is doing this with a long-term plan in mind,"

Wen Huanzhang laughed,

"This time we defeated the government troops in Tokyo,"

"The emperor and the imperial court have lost a great deal of face."

"Of course we'd want to get it back!"

"The strategist means that the imperial court will send troops to encircle and suppress them,"

Lu Zhishen immediately became excited.

"They've all gone down the mountain to fight this time,"

"But you want me to stay on the mountain!"

"When the government troops come again, it will be Instructor Lin's turn to guard the mountain,"

"Let me go down and fight!"

"It's already September,"

Wen Huanzhang laughed,

Winter is just around the corner.

"It's highly likely that the government troops won't be able to come this year."

"The next time the government troops will launch a campaign against Liangshan should be around next spring,"

"Having learned this lesson, the next time the government troops come, there will probably be even more."

"That's why the chieftain decided to build West Town with stone and bricks."

"This time we defeated the government troops using fire,"

"There definitely won't be such a good opportunity next time."

"Nine times out of ten, we'll have to fight a few tough battles. If we build the town out of wood again, it won't last."

"Besides, winter is just around the corner,"

"Houses built with stone are always warmer."

"Otherwise, when winter comes,"

"Wouldn't most of those foreign merchants just run away?"

"But there are only one or two months left until winter,"

Lu Zhishen asked in confusion,

"Can the town be built before winter?"

"There are those bricks that the village chief makes for burning paper money,"
