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

When Tian Biao learned that Zhao Yuan was leading a large army across the river...

After the officials and people of Xizhou surrendered the entire city,

They then prepared to remain in their positions and not venture out.

However, it was later discovered that Zhao Yuan only had 10,000 troops.

They did not attack Jinzhou.

Instead, he wanted to cross Jinzhou.

When they went to Longde Prefecture to join forces with the Liang army...

Then my heart began to flutter again.

He led his fierce generals Feng Xiang and Wang Yuan with 20,000 troops in pursuit.

Tian Biao's troops caught up with Zhao Yuan's army in Hechuan, and the two armies faced off.

Feng Xiang then stepped forward and shouted,

"You bandits from Liangshan,"

"Dare to invade my territory east of the river!"

"Grandpa must let you know the might of the heroes of Hedong."

Zhang Qing heard that there was a female general who could throw stones at people.

My heart is moved.

I was just thinking of sending a large army to Xiangyuan to meet that female general.

They saw Tian Biao leading his troops in pursuit.

Fengxiang then spoke rudely again.

They immediately rode to Fengxiang.

Fengxiang saw Zhang Qing go into battle.

He raised his knife to take Zhang Qing's life.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Qing raised a flying stone.

He immediately knocked Fengxiang off his horse.

Tian Biao was unwilling to admit defeat.

Several more generals were dispatched.

They couldn't even last a few rounds.

He was then knocked off his horse by Zhang Qing.

Li Kui saw Zhang Qing winning one victory after another.

No one from Tian Biao's side stepped forward.

He immediately shouted and charged forward.

Zhao Yuan saw that Li Kui had already charged out of the formation.

He then ordered the entire army to launch a full-scale attack.

Tian Biao's troops have lost their fighting spirit after being defeated by Zhang Qing.

In addition, his subordinates were mostly a rabble.

Wu Song's troops, however, arrived with the momentum of annihilating the Western Xia.

The battle lasted less than half an hour.

Then the entire army was defeated and retreated.

Tian Biao dared not return to Jinzhou.

They fled to Weisheng with their remaining troops.

Zhao Yuan led his troops in pursuit for several miles.

They then withdrew their troops.

Heading towards Longde Province.

A few days later, they arrived at Longde Prefecture.

Guan Sheng, Hua Rong, and Shi Wengong of Longde Prefecture learned that Zhao Yuan had led his troops to arrive.

They immediately went out of the city to greet him.

Seeing the three of them looking sullen, Zhao Yuan couldn't help but laugh.

"Victory and defeat are common occurrences in war."

"Besides, you have already captured Zezhou and Longde Prefecture,"

"It can't be considered a failure."

Hua Rong frowned and said, "The previous battles all had both victories and defeats."

"It's just that there are many mountains around Xiangyuan,"

"We were temporarily blocked because we were unfamiliar with the terrain."

"It's just that Qin Ming is impatient,"

"Yingniang fought yesterday,"

"But Yingniang knocked him off his horse with a stone and captured him alive."

"Since the uprising of my Great Liang,"

"We have never lost a commander of ten thousand men,"

"Therefore we are not happy."

Zhao Yuan assumed Qin Ming was either on the front lines or injured.

He was also surprised to hear that Qin Ming had been captured.

Li Kui, however, shouted without a care in the world,

"Go ahead and catch us, we're here."

"At least we caught that little girl,"

"Rescue Qin Ming."

"If you ask me, that little girl should be chopped down with an axe."

"But Zhang Qing kept thinking about that little girl the whole way,"

"This makes it difficult for me to make a move."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Qing blushed.

"Don't talk nonsense, Tie Niu,"

"I just wanted to see her skill at throwing stones at people,"

"We're just exchanging pointers, nothing more."

Li Kui smiled and said, "That's good."

"With your stone-throwing skills,"

"We will surely be able to capture her."

"You won't be able to bring yourself to do it then,"

"I'll chop her down with an axe for you."

Everyone was taken aback by Li Kui's antics.

He couldn't help but laugh.

Xiangyuan also received news that the King of Liang of Daliang had led his troops to arrive.

At this time, the one leading the troops in Xiangyuan was none other than Wu Li, the emperor's brother-in-law.

The most powerful general among them was Yingniang, the daughter of Wu Li, the emperor's brother-in-law.

Na Ying's mother was only sixteen years old.

A virgin with a beautiful face,

He was not Wu Li's biological son.

Her original surname was Qiu, and her father's name was Shen.

My ancestral home is in Jiexiu County, Fenyang Prefecture, a place called Mianshang.

Qiu Shen is quite wealthy, but he is already fifty years old and has no children.

After being widowed, he remarried to the daughter of Song Youlie from Pingyao County, and they had a daughter named Yingniang.

When Yingniang was ten years old,

After Song Youlie's death, Song and her husband Qiu Shen immediately went to mourn her father.

Pingyao is a neighboring county of Jiexiu.

They are more than seventy li apart.

Because of the long distance, the Song family

So Yingniang was left at home.

He instructed the supervisor, Ye Qing, and his wife to look after and serve them.

The couple walked halfway through their journey,

A group of thugs suddenly appeared and killed Qiu Shen.

They dispersed the farmhands and kidnapped Song.

The servants fled back and informed Ye Qing.

Although Ye Qing was a supervisor

They do have some sense of loyalty, and they even carry sedan chairs for others.

His wife, née An, was quite cautious.

Ye Qing immediately informed the enemy's family and relatives.

On one hand, they reported the case to the authorities and apprehended the bandit;

The body of the head of the household was buried on one side.

The Qiu family relatives discussed establishing one member of their clan to inherit the family business.

Ye Qing and his wife, Ms. An,

Watching over the young mistress, Yingniang.

Chapter 1664 Let's Surrender

More than a year has passed,

When Tian Hu rebelled, he seized Weisheng.

He dispatched Wu Li to lead troops to plunder, reaching Jiexiu and Mianshang.

Robbery of wealth, abduction of men and women,

The heir of the Qiu family was killed by the mutinous soldiers.

Ye Qing and his wife, along with Ying Niang, were all abducted.

Wu Li also had no children.

Seeing that Yingniang had delicate features,

This led to him meeting his wife, Ms. Ni.
