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

Li Feng is already dead.

Tian Liang will also atone for his sins with good deeds.

But what happened at Liangshan Salt Village?

It's clearly not appropriate to let him manage things anymore.

"I plan to hand over the salt village to Zou Yuan and his nephew Zou Run."

“They are local bullies in Terengganu,”

"I already know the situation in Dengzhou,"

"With them in charge of Yanzhai,"

"And with your assistance from the side,"

"There shouldn't be any more problems in Yanzhai."

"besides,"

Zhao Yuan remembered something else.

"From now on, salt from Yanzhai will no longer be transported by land."

"Your navy will escort them instead."

"You should do this before the first batch of coarse salt is produced,"

"We need to familiarize ourselves with the water conditions along the route as soon as possible."

Ships sailing,

It is necessary to have an extremely clear understanding of the water flow conditions along the route.

this time,

When the Ruan brothers arrived with riverboats to besiege the Dengzhou water fortress...

The reason why one ship sank was

I'm just not familiar with the situation at the estuary.

This caused a warship to strike a hidden reef in the water.

"Don't worry, brother,"

Ruan Xiaowu immediately assured him,

“We know all about these things,”

"In the past two days, we've set aside a team,"

"Let's take a boat to investigate the water conditions along the way."

After arranging everything properly

In Bianxiang,

Also from the prisoners,

They found that Commander Wu of the Danghai Dragon Army.

This guy was trying to escape.

They really have no shame whatsoever.

Because when he jumped into the sea to escape before...

He had already taken off his armor.

So it was decided to be straightforward.

Pretend to be an ordinary soldier.

He mingled among the prisoners of war from the Dengzhou navy.

But on the Liangshan side,

Since the goal is to select three hundred men from the prisoners of war captured by the Dengzhou navy...

To teach Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi sea navigation techniques.

Naturally, we should start with the prisoners captured by the Dengzhou navy.

Select officers of all ranks from the government forces.

The method Liangshan used to select officers from the prisoners was also quite simple.

All we need to do is let the naval soldiers report it themselves.

As long as one officer is reported...

That would be considered redemption.

Report one more.

Liangshan will also give rewards.

In the Song court's system

The lowest-ranking soldiers,

They have always been the ones being exploited.

In the past,

High-ranking officers began drinking the blood of their soldiers.

That was all done without any restraint.

Now these soldiers at the grassroots level

When reporting these officers,

Naturally, there was no psychological burden at all.

quickly,

As a group of Dengzhou naval officers jumped out from among the prisoners...

This Commander-in-Chief of the Dragon Slayer Army naturally couldn't escape punishment either.

They were immediately taken out.

They were brought before Zhao Yuan.

"Chief, spare my life!"

Upon seeing Zhao Yuan,

Dang Hailong immediately lost his previous arrogance and domineering attitude.

My legs went weak immediately.

He then knelt down on the ground.

He banged his head against the ground with a loud "thump, thump."

"I was bewitched, that's why I offended the might of Liangshan..."

Chapter 981 Raising Money

"It's all my fault, please spare my life..."

The sea dragon resembled a beetle.

He kept kowtowing, making loud thuds.

Zhao Yuan looked at him with an icy expression.

After a while,

He then asked with a cold smile,

"I'll spare you?"

"When you killed our Liangshan men,"

"Were they spared?"

Zhao Yuan asked this question,

The meaning is self-evident.

Dang Hailong isn't stupid.

Naturally, he immediately recognized it.

He looked up in a panic.

"You...you can't kill me!"

"I am the Imperial Censor!"

"If you kill me, the imperial court will not let you off!"

"Then you just wait, your court will avenge you,"

Zhao Yuan waved his hand coldly.

"Take him down!"

"Tomorrow, behead him in front of Dengzhou city and display his head to the public!"

"We want to show those officials in Dengzhou what's what,"

"Offending Liangshan will have dire consequences!"

.....

News of the fall of the Dengzhou naval stronghold to Liangshan arrived.

The news quickly spread throughout Dengzhou.

In Dengzhou Prefecture,

Those officials who originally thought Liangshan had left

I immediately tensed up again.

Dengzhou City had four city gates.

Closed again!

And on the very next day,

Liangshan appointed officials in Dengzhou Prefecture.

There were also various wealthy and powerful families.

I thoroughly enjoyed watching the spectacle.

It is located at the east gate of Dengzhou Prefecture.

Liangshan specially built a high platform here.

Then came the sounds of horns and drums.

This attracted all the officials in Dengzhou city to the east gate.

At last,

Right in front of them,

Behead the Sea Dragon!

His head was hanging directly from the high platform!

"Listen up, you corrupt officials and wealthy families in the city,"

Bianxiang stood on the high platform.

He shouted loudly into the city of Dengzhou.

"Dang Hailong has breached our Liangshan Salt Village,"
