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

Zhao Yuan was also aware of this.

I'm too lazy to argue with them.

"Please lead the way, Brother Liu, so we can take this money and grain up the mountain."

Unexpectedly, after hearing these words, Liu Qi...

However, he looked troubled.

"Well, I'm afraid there might be some inconvenience involved..."

"inconvenient?"

Zhao Yuan frowned.

He looked up again and took a closer look at the henchmen behind Liu Qi.

These soldiers of the Ape Arm Fortress were seen...

They were all carrying knives, spears, clubs, and other weapons.

Rather than saying they came down the mountain to transport money and grain,

It's more like they've come to fight against Liangshan.

"Brother, what do you mean by this?"

Liu Huiniang also sensed that something was wrong.

Just now, she was focused on getting Zhao Yuan to meet his family.

I didn't pay attention to anything else either.

Now, upon closer inspection,

He immediately furrowed his brows.

"Brother, what exactly happened? Didn't I send someone to tell you to bring men and wagons to come down and move things?"

"this,"

Liu Qi looked troubled.

After dawdling for a while,

Only then did he say helplessly,

"Ah Xiu, don't blame your elder brother, it was all Father's idea..."

"What exactly is Father trying to do?"

Liu Huiniang was at a loss for words, both amused and exasperated.

"This money and provisions were all given to us by Brother Zhao from the spoils he seized from Liangshan. How could you..."

"Well, your father is worried that you'll be deceived,"

Liu Qi laughed awkwardly.

"I've been scammed? What do you mean?"

Liu Huiniang bit her lip in annoyance.

"Father is afraid..."

Liu Qi gave Zhao Yuan a dry laugh.

After hesitating for a while,

He then said in a low voice,

"Father is afraid that Liangshan's delivery of money and grain is just a pretense; in reality, they want to take advantage of the situation and seize Yuanbi Village."

"Big brother, what is Father really thinking?!"

Liu Huiniang stomped her foot in anger.

"The Liangshan family is so powerful and wealthy, how could they possibly look down on our tiny village?"

"Qi'er, what on earth are you doing?"

Chen Xizhen, who was standing nearby, heard this.

I also felt quite ashamed.

Their trip to Yuanbi Village

He said he was going to Yizhou Prefecture to help Liangshan.

But actually,

But he didn't do anything.

In the end, he even got a share of money and grain for nothing.

Although the old Taoist priest Chen Xizhen still believed that Liangshan was a band of thieves who were harming the Song Dynasty,

However, regarding the matter in Yizhou Prefecture,

I also think that Zhao Yuan did a truly magnanimous thing.

But no one expected that,

We have now reached the foot of Yuanbi Village.

Liu Guang actually caused such a scene!

"I tried to persuade my dad about it back then,"

Liu Qi said helplessly,

"But he insists that Liangshan is a wolf in sheep's clothing, and that giving our Yuanbi Village so much money and grain for no reason must be for some ulterior motive,"

"So that's why this whole thing happened..."

"Where's Dad?"

Liu Huiniang rubbed her temples helplessly.

"Is he perhaps lying in ambush, just waiting for the fighting to break out here so he can charge out and attack?"

"Wow, Ah Xiu, your prediction was really accurate!"

Liu Qi chuckled twice.

"My father is in the woods over there with over two hundred strong henchmen..."

"Brother, what's going on at Ape Arm Village?"

Jiao Ting said angrily,

"We, a thousand or so men, worked hard to deliver money and provisions to them, and this is how they treat us..."

"Jiao Ting!"

Sun An glanced at Liu Huiniang, who looked dejected beside him.

He quickly reached out and pulled Jiao Ting away.

Only then, realizing he had no face, did he remember that Liu Huiniang was still beside him.

He quickly apologized.

"Young lady of the Liu family, I didn't mean it..."

Liu Huiniang ignored Jiao Ting.

Instead, he looked at Zhao Yuan with red eyes.

"Brother Zhao, I'm so sorry, my father..."

"Okay, it's not your fault,"

Zhao Yuan waved his hand.

He then looked at Liu Qi.

"Well then, since your Ape Arm Village doesn't welcome us, then we won't go any further."

"Brother Sun An, have your men leave the money and provisions here..."

Chapter 586 Tokyo Imperial Guards

The attitude of Yuanbi Village

This greatly displeased many of the Liangshan soldiers.

Although Sun An had stopped Jiao Ting from speaking,

But that was only because of Liu Huiniang's sake.

It's not that he had no grudges.

Now, upon hearing Zhao Yuan's instructions...

Sun An then didn't delay any longer.

He directly ordered the soldiers to leave the money and provisions on the spot.

I just don't want to.

The Liangshan soldiers on this side had just moved...

In the woods not far away,

Suddenly, a cacophony of gongs and drums erupted.

next moment,

More than two hundred bandits charged out of the woods, shouting and yelling.

The leader was a middle-aged athlete.

He was wearing armor.

It was Liu Huiniang's father who...

Now, the chieftain of Yuanbi Village is Liu Guang!

Here

Seeing the henchmen of Ape Arm Village attack,

Without waiting for Zhao Yuan's instructions,

Sun An then shouted loudly,

"Formation!"

next moment,

Nearly a thousand Liangshan soldiers began to take action.

The infantry soldiers used the Mandarin Duck Formation as their base.

A large formation was formed.

The cavalrymen mounted their horses, spears in hand.

Wandering around the great formation,

The remaining archers,

Then draw the bow and nock the arrow.

The arrowhead was aimed directly at the approaching Yuanbi Village henchmen!

They were just waiting for Zhao Yuan's order.

Then they would unleash a barrage of arrows!

The Ape Arm Village troops who rushed out of the woods clearly hadn't expected the Liangshan soldiers to react so quickly.

Compared to the well-equipped and disciplined soldiers of Liangshan,

These henchmen of Ape Arm Village looked like a group of beggars.
