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

"Something terrible has happened! This afternoon!"

“A Liang army captured Yanzhou.”

The soldiers on either side heard this news.

They couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Renli was also taken aback and asked,

"Is the news true?"

"Yes, I have inquired with the nearby tribes."

"Some tribes from Weizhou have submitted to the Liang Kingdom,"

"Having captured the city gates, the garrison of Yanzhou, seeing that they were no match for the Liang army, abandoned the city and fled."

Renli cursed, "Traitor who has abandoned his ancestors!"

"If I catch him,"

"They must have been skinned alive."

The Jingzhou garrison commander standing nearby asked in confusion,

"So, the Liang army came from Weizhou."

"Isn't this Liang Kingdom just a bunch of bandits from the Central Plains?"

"How did so many soldiers suddenly appear?"

"We fought our way through Mingsha,"

"There's even another force that's fighting their way in from Weizhou."

Renli said, "The Liang Kingdom's army shouldn't be that large."

"Have you found out how many Liang soldiers captured Yanzhou?"

"Someone outside the city saw the Liang army entering the city,"

"Less than 10,000 people."

The garrison commander of Jingzhou frowned and said, "Although the city of Yanzhou is not as grand as Xingqing Prefecture,"

"But we've also lost many of our troops,"

"I'm afraid we won't be able to take back Yanzhou."

"It's getting late today,"

"Then we went to Fangdang tribe to rest for the night,"

"Tomorrow we will go to Yanzhou City to test the waters of the Liang army."

Renli, however, knew that his elder brother Renzhong was leading his troops in a retreat.

The nearest cities to retreat to are Weizhou and Yanzhou.

Renli was unaware that Weizhou no longer had any Liang troops.

It was assumed that the Liang army was going to cut off Renzhong's retreat.

Naturally, they wouldn't easily allow their elder brother's escape route to be cut off by the Great Liang.

The Fangdang tribe was one of the earliest eight major Dangxiang tribes.

However, when Li Yuanhao established his kingdom...

They could no longer be considered a major Tangut clan.

After the founding of the Western Xia Dynasty,

The various factions within the country were led by the three major clans of Weiming, Liang, and Renduo.

The garrison commander of Jingzhou saw that it was getting late.

Whether it is to attack Yanzhou,

Or we should detour to Youzhou and Xiazhou.

By now, it would be time to set up camp and establish a settlement.

I won't say any more.

In the evening,

It gets extremely cold in the desert.

No army can march through the desert at night.

Although the Fangdang tribe was not considered a large tribe in the Western Xia Kingdom.

However, it was a large tribe in Yanzhou.

It occupies a fairly large salt pond.

Although the Fangdang tribe was not considered a large tribe in the Western Xia Dynasty,

But there are also more than 6,000 people.

Those aged 15 and above

There are also more than two thousand men under the age of sixty.

The total population of the Lang'eyan tribe is less than a thousand.

There were only a little over three hundred men who could be armed.

Chapter 1937 Tribe

Lang'eyan was not qualified to meet the clan chief of the Fang tribe in the past.

But today, when he came to the Fangdang tribe on behalf of the Liang Dynasty...

Fang Dangjun, the chief of the Fangdang tribe, personally led his men to greet him outside the house.

The two exchanged brief pleasantries.

Fang Dangjun then stopped beating around the bush and spoke directly.

"If I were to submit to the Great Liang,"

"Can Daliang allow my tribe to continue owning the salt lake?"

Lang Eyan shook his head and said, "That's impossible."

"All salt in Daliang is controlled by the imperial court,"

"The salt wells of the Tibetans have all been brought into the hands of the Liang Dynasty."

"Da Liang will not allow any tribe to have salt wells."

Fang Dangjun frowned and said, "Then why should I join the Great Liang?"

If it were any other time,

Fang Dangjun frowned.

Lang Eyanming would certainly be filled with trepidation.

However, today, Naraku Iwana faced no pressure whatsoever when confronting Fusato Toshun.

Lang Eyanming laughed and said, "General Lu said..."

"Three days later he will send troops to wipe out the nearby tribes that do not submit, leaving no one alive."

The phrase "not even chickens or dogs are left" was actually added to the name of Lang'e Rock.

Lang Eyanming, however, was not afraid of Fang Dangjun turning against him.

Before he arrived, he first found Fang Dang, the tribe's manager in the city.

Have the supervisor send someone to deliver a message to Fang Dangjun.

After Fang Dangjun agreed to meet Lang Eyan,

Lang Eyan was just arriving from Yanzhou.

There are still some people from the Fangdang tribe in Yanzhou.

Therefore, Lang'e Rock's name is also unshakable.

Moreover, he felt that Fang Dangjun had received him.

It is clear that they have already expressed their intention to submit to the Liang Dynasty.

Upon hearing these threatening words, Fang Dangjun

His face darkened.

Lang Eyan said, "Li Qianshun and Chage's two armies lost 300,000 men."

"Both of them were killed by the King of Liang of the Great Liang Dynasty,"

"Renzhong's troops are also trapped in Shaanxi, and they will be defeated sooner or later."

"The Western Xia dynasty is doomed."

"Are you really going to drag the Fangdang tribe down with the Western Xia and perish together?"

"This Western Xia is the tribe of the Weiming clan,"

"It is not a tribe of our Tangut people."

"The Zhe clan of Linzhou is also a prominent clan among our Tangut people,"

"Weren't they also generals for generations during the Song Dynasty?"

"Will you enjoy endless wealth and luxury?"

“I heard that your Wuchi tribe was originally part of your Fangdang tribe,”

"Later it was taken by the Weiming clan,"

"We've only left you the small pond you have now."

"Which of the larger salt lakes of each tribe wasn't seized by the Weiming clan?"

"When did the Weiming clan ever treat the various Tangut tribes as one family?"

Fang Dangjun also knew that Huanqing Road had once again invested in Daliang.

He probed, having cut off Renzhong's retreat.

"Two thousand men from my unit were taken to Huanqing Road by Renzhong,"

"I don't know what's become of them now."

"Does Chief Lang'e have any news about them?"

Lang Eyanming also exclaimed in surprise, "Two thousand people?"

"Is this all the men your tribe can muster for war?"

Fang Dangjun nodded and said, "Eighty percent of the clan's male members have left."

"I have no choice,"

"Eighty percent of the male members of the tribes in Jianing and Xiangyou have left."

Lang Eyan shook his head and said, "It would be better if we were captured."

"I'm afraid they've already died in battle."

"You've heard about the divine thunder of Daliang, haven't you?"

"The sound was as loud as thunder,"

"Even iron armor can be blown to smithereens."

"A single bolt of lightning can kill a person several meters tall."

"Brother Cha was blown to pieces by the divine thunder."

Fang Dangjun said, "If I surrender,"
