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

This is the perfect opportunity to rally the masses for an uprising.

However, he also feared that the imperial court would send the entire nation's army south.

At that time, the Ming Cult alone would be unable to withstand it.

Therefore, Fang La specially sent people.

Invite Zhao Yuan, Tian Hu, and Wang Qing to join the alliance.

The intention was to have these three forces tie down the imperial army in the north.

This would allow his Ming Cult to sweep across Jiangnan.

In Fang La's view,

Tian Hu from Hebei and Wang Qing from Huaixi

They were just some bandits.

Although it seems to have a lot of momentum now

They occupied several cities.

But this only provided a temporary advantage in terms of location.

He is definitely not the kind of person who can achieve great things.

Compared to these two sides,

On the contrary, Zhao Dalang from Liangshan,

With many soldiers and generals,

After repeatedly plundering the state capital,

But they all abandoned the city.

It seems they didn't want to attract too much attention from the imperial court.

Their ambitions are probably quite significant.

Therefore, Fang La specially sent Lou Minzhong to come.

They wanted to persuade Zhao Yuan to attend the alliance meeting.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Yuan had only heard that Fang La would personally go to Tokyo.

He then slammed his fist on the table and decided to attend the meeting.

As long as Zhao Yuan goes

There will be time to persuade him then.

When the wine was half-drunk,

Xu Guanzhong said,

“You must all be tired from your long journey,”

"Everyone must not urge them to drink anymore,"

"It's not too late to eat them after they've rested for a day or two."

Lou Minzhong immediately understood the meaning.

After eating some more,

He then got up to take his leave.

Zhao Yuan was instructed to escort the three to their guest rooms to rest.

Upon arriving at the guest room,

Fang Baihua clasped her hands in a fist salute to Zhao Yuan and said,

"If the chieftain has the time, would you be willing to show us around Liangshan Marsh?"

Zhao Yuan noticed that this woman, Baihua, displayed none of the coy or affected manners typical of women.

So I didn't think much of it.

He nodded directly.

It's getting late today.

"How about this, first thing tomorrow morning,"

"Then I came to find the three of you."

"Then I, your humble servant, will thank you in advance, Chieftain,"

Fang Baihua bowed and thanked her.

...

When Zhao Yuan returned to the Hall of Gathering Righteousness,

The banquet in the hall has been cleared away.

All the leaders were present.

They were clearly waiting for him to discuss the matter of raising an army to overthrow the court.

Zhao Yuan did not speak.

First, consider the meaning behind everyone's words.

Lu Zhishen, Liu Tang, and others

Feeling that there were so many brothers on Liangshan,

It's time to accomplish something big.

Chapter 1501 Visiting Liangshan

Xu Guanzhong, Lin Chong, and others

But it seems that although the Song Dynasty is on the verge of collapse,

But after all, it was the imperial court.

With many soldiers and generals,

If we act rashly,

Nine times out of ten, it will bring disaster upon nine generations of their family.

The group was unable to reach a consensus.

They're all making a racket there.

Seeing Zhao Yuan enter,

Xu Guanzhong then asked,

"Chief, what do you think we should do?"

Zhao Yuan laughed and said,

"I think this Song Dynasty court..."

"It's like a building about to collapse."

"That imperial court wants to ally with the Jin to destroy the Liao,"

"This is clearly inviting a wolf into the house."

"Why don't we first form an alliance with Fang La and his men?"

"Everyone agreed to rise up together,"

"This way, we can at least slow down the imperial court's progress in destroying Liao."

"Then, at that time, we'll see how things develop in the world,"

"Who knows, the whole world might just become our Liangshan stronghold!"

Li Kui, Ruan Xiaoer, and other leaders who had been led up the mountain by Zhao Yuan spoke to him.

Immediately, they all spoke up and loudly echoed.

Qin Ming, Huyan Zhuo, and these other generals who were originally part of the imperial court,

Everyone knows that Zhao Yuan is telling the truth.

They all remained silent.

Seeing that everyone had reached a consensus, Zhao Yuan

Then he let everyone disperse.

...

Early the next morning

Zhao Yuan then went to the guest's courtyard.

The three came looking for Fang Baihua.

When they arrived in the courtyard,

Then they saw Guo Shiguang wielding a knife in the courtyard.

Wherever the knife cut,

The cold light flashes,

Captivating.

Zhao Yuan was also deeply impressed by Guo Shiguang.

In the original Water Margin timeline,

Guo Shiguang killed five people: Suo Chao, Deng Fei, Yan Shun, Bao Xu, and Ma Lin.

He then fought Guan Sheng for twenty rounds.

Then he turned his horse around and left.

At that time, Guan Sheng felt that Guo Shiguang's swordsmanship was no less than his own.

But now they've suddenly turned back.

Worried that there might be a scheme,

So he dared not chase after them.

This shows how brave Guo Shiguang was.

"it is good!"

Zhao Yuan watched as Guo Shiguang finished his sword technique.

His breathing was even, and his complexion was normal.

They couldn't help but clap and cheer.

Guo Shiguang sheathed his sword, clasped his hands in a humble gesture, and said...

"I'm afraid I've made a fool of myself in front of Chief Zhao,"

"He just haphazardly practiced some farming skills,"

"It cannot compare to the family-inherited skills of Lin Chong and Yang Zhixia."

Zhao Yuan had, of course, witnessed Lin Chong's spear skills and Yang Zhi's sword skills.

That move was indeed exquisite.

However, Guo Shiguang's swordsmanship was extremely fierce.

If he were to face Lin Chong and Yang Zhi...

It's hard to say who will win or lose.

Zhao Yuan exchanged a few more pleasantries with Guo Shiguang.
