"But it probably won't be easy to make a name for yourself in the campaign to wipe out Liangshan,"
Chen Xizhen shook his head and said,
He had also been to Liangshan before.
I spent some time on the mountain.
Against Liangshan's strength,
It is naturally very clear.
"This year, the imperial court dispatched 20,000 troops,"
"In just one night,"
"They were easily defeated by Liangshan."
"The imperial court intends to launch a campaign against Liangshan next year,"
"Either send at least 60,000 or 70,000 troops,"
"Either we have to send the Western Army into Shandong."
"But regardless of what the imperial court says,"
"Our mountain stronghold only has three or four hundred men,"
"Let alone making contributions in the great war,"
"It was probably an accident,"
"They're about to become cannon fodder."
"So this time when I go back,"
Liu Guang gritted his teeth and said,
"In any case, we need to recruit more people."
"But our village doesn't have much money..."
Liu Lin reminded him.
"If you don't have the funds, you have to find a way."
Liu Guang stared wide-eyed and said,
"No matter what, we must not miss this opportunity."
"Do you intend to spend the rest of your life like this?"
"Are they all going to become bandits and outlaws?"
"I...of course I don't want to,"
Liu Lin answered hesitantly.
"alright,"
Liu Guang nodded and said,
"This matter is settled."
...
On the Erlong Mountain side,
After reading Murong Yanda's reply, Song Jiang...
He nodded in satisfaction.
"With the letter from Prefect Murong,"
"Over there with Liu Guang and the others,"
"There shouldn't be any problems."
“Clerk, no matter what,”
Sun Li reminded him,
"This Liu Guang gang,"
"Ultimately, they are different from us,"
"We should still be wary of what needs to be guarded against."
"Don't worry, I know that."
Song Jiang laughed,
"I want to completely relax,"
"At the very least, we should wait until they've been seen off before making any decisions."
Since we're all comrades who have been recruited by the government,
On Song Jiang's side,
Naturally, we should treat Liu Guang and the others to another good meal.
The location is still at the first checkpoint of Erlong Mountain.
At the dinner table,
Amidst the clinking of glasses,
Liu Guang raised his wine cup,
He expressed his sincere gratitude.
"Sir Song, regarding this matter of the imperial amnesty,"
"I really have to thank you for your help!"
"If it weren't for your help,"
"We want to be granted amnesty,"
"It's still unknown when it will be ready."
"Commander Liu, you're too kind,"
Song Jiang drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.
He then said with considerable emotion,
"Now in this green forest,"
"People like us who are devoted to the imperial court,"
"A person who is wholeheartedly devoted to serving their country,"
"That's a very limited number!"
"Most of the bandits are men of the greenwood,"
"They've all been misled by Liangshan, and by people like Wang Qing and Tian Hu,"
"He was determined to rebel,"
"They want to break this peaceful and stable world!"
“Sir Song is right,”
Liu Guang agreed.
As the saying goes,
"Reporting to the king above, protecting the dawn below,"
"This is what we martial arts practitioners should do."
"It's all because of Zhao Dalang and his ilk,"
"That's why we're looked down upon by intellectuals."
These two men, Song Jiang and Liu Guang,
They were all blindly loyal to the Song court.
Now we're at the dinner table.
After they both let go,
They started talking and their conversation became more and more congenial.
It feels like we've known each other for ages...
Chapter 1425 Worries
After seeing Liu Guang and the others off...
Song Jiang immediately relaxed completely.
Just now at the banquet,
Liu Guang has already said it himself.
Wait till tomorrow,
He then led his henchmen...
Return to Yuanbi Village.
For timely rain
The incident at Yuanbi Village
That means it's all done.
Now only Liangshan remains.
Prince Qing of Huaixi received the news.
Just as I thought that,
Song Jiang then saw the sickly Yuchi walk quickly toward him.
"what happened?"
Timely Rain hurriedly asked.
"Clerk, there's news from Liangshan,"
Sun Li said with a face full of joy,
"The brothers Ou Peng and Lei Heng took that 100,000 strings of cash,"
"It's already been delivered to Liangshan Marsh,"
"Wang Qing and his men have already taken the money,"
"They left Liangshan."
"That's good, that's good,"
Song Jiang completely relaxed.
"Now, all the trouble is over."
...
Just like the timely rain said,
The incident at Erlong Mountain this time,
That's definitely all resolved.
The people from Huaixi on the Liangshan side have all left.
But when the next day came...
Liu Guang and others also kept their promise.
He led his troops away from Erlong Mountain.
