The result, naturally, was defeat for all of them.

None of them could surpass Chen Liqing.

Now Liu Huiniang is using this as an excuse.

Although Qiongying was unwilling,

But he could only sit down reluctantly.

"alright,"

Zhao Yuan looked around at the leaders present.

"Besides Ah Xiu and her cousin,"

"Since joining Liangshan, Brother Zhishen has rarely come down the mountain,"

"This time, you will come with me to Dengzhou,"

"In addition, the Shi brothers led cavalry,"

"The brothers Bianxiang and Chen Da led their infantry to accompany me."

"The Shi brothers, along with their scouts, went ahead to Dengzhou to gather information."

"The three Ruan brothers led their navy to escort us to Qingzhou."

"The rest of the leaders of the stronghold all stayed behind at Liangshan, each performing their duties."

"We will obey the orders of Instructor Lin and the three strategists!"

"Yes!"

All the leaders responded in unison!

.....

The mobilization of nearly a thousand troops

It's not like you can just leave whenever you want.

After the meeting in the Hall of Righteousness,

The entire Liangshan group immediately sprang into action.

The three Ruan brothers went to prepare naval vessels.

Although Zhao Yuan went to Dengzhou with the leaders to reorganize the troops,

As for Xu Guanzhong and Zhu Wu...

They then helped prepare provisions...

Chapter 916 Departure

Everyone was busy all day.

the next day,.

Zhao Yuan then led Liu Huiniang and Chen Liqing...

There were others,

They boarded the naval vessels of the three Nguyen brothers.

They headed towards Qingzhou along the waterway.

.....

Two days later,

The Liangshan navy entered Qingzhou territory.

Zhao Yuan and the others found a place to disembark.

They then headed towards Dengzhou.

However, along this route,

However, it requires passing through Qingzhou Prefecture.

Zhao Yuan and his men had another thousand soldiers.

along the way,

It was naturally difficult to avoid being noticed.

quickly,

Upon receiving news that the Liangshan army was approaching Qingzhou,

The news immediately reached the ears of Qingfeng Mountain and Qingzhou Prefecture.

On this side of Qingfeng Mountain,

Although Chao Gai was puzzled,

Why did Zhao Yuan lead his army to Qingfeng Mountain again?

But because of Qingfeng Mountain,

These were all places that Liangshan had given to Chao Gai and his men as shelter.

If Liangshan really wanted Qingfeng Mountain,

They should have just occupied it from the start.

Why go through all that trouble?

Let Chao Gai and his group have it!

In my humble opinion,

The wise man analyzed, waving his feather fan.

"Liangshan must have just been passing through this time,"

"Brothers, don't overthink it."

"Passing by?"

Kongming snorted coldly.

"That's how our Kongjiazhuang was taken over by Liangshan back then,"

"In my opinion, we'd better be careful!"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Song Jiang reprimanded Kongming.

Then he asked the wise man.

"In the strategist's opinion,"

Where does Liangshan intend to go this time?

"News came from Dengzhou earlier,"

Wu Yong slowly waved his feather fan and said,

"They say there's yet another force whose allegiance is unknown,"

"Taking advantage of the imperial court's dispatch of a large army to suppress Liangshan,"

"They captured Liangshan's salt fortress in Dengzhou in one fell swoop."

"I thought before,"

"There might be something wrong with this news,"

"After all, given Liangshan's prestige and strength in Shandong,"

"This move is undoubtedly courting death; it's like provoking a tiger!"

"But judging from Liangshan's reaction now,"

Wu Yong laughed,

"This news might be true."

Qingzhou is close to Dengzhou.

It's much closer than Liangshan in Jeju.

So, on Qingfeng Mountain...

Only then can we get news from Dengzhou first.

"Who on earth has the audacity to attack Liangshan's salt fortress?"

Song Jiang exclaimed in surprise,

"Smuggled salt has always been extremely profitable,"

Chao Gai, a former salt smuggler, lamented...

"I had heard about it before,"

"Then Liangshan in Dengzhou invented something even more,"

"A way to obtain salt by sun-drying seawater."

"The large quantities of smuggled salt obtained through this,"

"The Liangshan bandits have practically taken control of the entire Shandong salt trade,"

"This move has clearly aroused envy."

"Regardless, the enemy's attack on the salt fortress has clearly angered Liangshan,"

Wu Yong laughed,

"Dengzhou is located in a remote area, and there aren't many large villages within its borders,"

"If Liangshan goes there this time, they're probably in for a bad time."

"If that's the case, Qingfeng Mountain cannot remain silent,"

Chao Gai pondered for a moment and said,

"How about I take some troops and go to help Liangshan?"

"this....."

Song Jiang just advised Chao Gai,

Wu Yong, who was standing nearby, had already spoken up.

"Chief, there's no need for that,"

"Liang Shan's journey is for revenge against the salt village; he probably doesn't want anyone else involved..."

Chapter 917 Who Should Marry?

"If the chieftain is so inclined, he might as well prepare some money and provisions,"

Wu Yong suggested,

"Liangshan's journey to Dengzhou has clearly consumed a considerable amount of money and provisions."

"The chieftain Zhao will surely be grateful for this action."

“But our village is almost out of food,”

Kong Liang said with a face full of indignation,

"Why should we give it to Liangshan and his gang!"

idiot!

Song Jiang cursed inwardly.

After Wu Yong finished speaking,
