The system has to be used even if it is pulled

After the cannon fired at Liangshanpo seven or eight times in succession, the muzzle was red, and Zhao Yuanlang then ordered the army to advance.

As they were about to reach Liangshan Lake, with reeds swaying all around, Zhao Yuanlang chuckled and muttered to himself. The sunlight in the sky rose suddenly and fell into the reeds. The originally calm water was filled with puddles. Soon, many small boats from Liangshan Lake rushed out, fleeing in panic.

Zhao Yuanlang was not in a hurry. He looked at the various defenses built on the beach and muttered to himself. Thunder flashed in the sky and countless thunders fell on the beach. For a moment, the Liangshan bandits were struck terribly and retreated to the mountain gate one by one.

After seeing that there was no one on the beach, Zhao Yuanlang ordered the ships to dock and led the army towards the mountain gate.

The Liangshan coalition forces were unable to stop it. Only Zhao Yuanlang was in the front, killing all the Liangshan generals and forcing them to retreat step by step. The Liangshan army was completely defeated.

In this battle, Lu Junyi, Song Jiang, Wu Yong, Chai Jin, Yan Qing, the three Ruan brothers and others were captured, while Liu Tang, Li Li, Zhu Gui, Kong Ming, Kong Liang, Song Qing, the five tigers of the Zeng family and others were killed.

"Take them all away. Song Jiang and Wu Yong are the main culprits. Cut off their heads immediately and present them to Your Majesty so that Your Majesty can rest assured. As for the others, after investigating their crimes, those with minor crimes will be sent to prisoner-of-war camps, while those with serious crimes will be executed immediately."

"As ordered!"

Hu Sanniang was captured and taken to the mountains some time ago. In order to stabilize the Hu family soldiers, Song Jiang persuaded Hu Sanniang to lead the Hu family soldiers and betrothed her to Wang Ying. As a result, Wang Ying died before they had their wedding night. Then, after being captured this time, Zhao Yuanlang had a second wife. You can't say that Hu Sanniang is indeed a martial artist, her legs are agile and elastic.

.........

One day later, the heads of Song Jiang and Wu Yong were sent to the Golden Palace. Zhao Yuanlang had won a great victory, so he had to be rewarded. It would be difficult to convince the people without reward. However, Zhao Yuanlang was from the lineage of Taizu, which made it more difficult to deal with.

Finally, Cai Jing submitted a letter to Song Huizong. After weighing the pros and cons, Song Huizong finally issued an edict.

The decree said: "Since I ascended the throne, I have governed the world with benevolence and righteousness, practiced rituals and music to change the country, and used fair rewards and punishments to settle wars. My heart of seeking talents has never been slack, and my heart of loving the people has never been less warm. Zhao Yuanlang, the governor of the anti-rebel army and the governor of Dongping, Jizhou, and Dongchang, is loyal to the country and has unparalleled bravery. He is conferred the title of Dongping Marquis, with a fief of 1,500 households, and the title of Junior Guardian, and the governor of Dongping, Jizhou, and Dongchang.

The order stated that the Liangshan bandits had no intention of repaying the emperor's kindness and had rebelled, committing serious crimes. In view of the fact that the main culprit had been eliminated, the remaining bandits would all be sentenced by Zhao Yuanlang.

As for the rewards for Wu Song and others, they were written on another imperial edict. After the angel read out the edict, Zhao Yuanlang led them to express their gratitude, and they celebrated and had a banquet together that night.

Song Huizong is good at this. The trick he played is quite good. The governors of Dongping, Jizhou and Dongchang are gone. There is only a nominal title and three Jiedushi without any real power. It's a great job. Just wait for me to endure for a few more years, and then I will deal with you, Taizong's lineage, together.

However, the people in the north were suffering, the Liao Dynasty was torn apart and there was constant civil strife. The Jin Dynasty rose up strongly and attacked the Liao Dynasty.

The Liao Dynasty suffered from humiliation from the Jin Dynasty, but it defeated the Song Dynasty and often plundered Shandong, Shanxi, Henan, Hebei and other places to repay itself.

All places were suffering, and the Song army was weak. Song Huizong sent Zhao Liangsi and Ma Zheng to Jin successively. Jin also sent envoys to Song several times. The two sides agreed to attack the Liao Dynasty together. The Liao Yanjing was captured by the Song army, and the Jin army attacked Liaozhongjing Dading Prefecture and other places. After the fall of Liao, the Yanyun area returned to the Song Dynasty, and the Song transferred the annual tribute originally paid to the Liao Dynasty to the Jin Dynasty. This is known in history as the "Sea Alliance."

The Song army was corrupt and lacked combat effectiveness. Hundreds of thousands of troops attacked Yanjing twice, but both times they failed. This also aroused the ruthlessness of the Liao Dynasty. If I can't beat the Jin Dynasty, how can I beat you, the Song Dynasty? The Liao army attacked cities and strongholds all the way, and the Song army fled everywhere. The Song Dynasty lost more than a dozen counties in a few days.

Song Huizong was at a loss and flew into a rage at the court meeting. Cai Jing had already made plans and presented the memorial in his hand to Song Huizong.

When Emperor Huizong of Song read the memorial, he wanted to get angry, but he quickly understood Cai Jing's intention.

As the governor of three towns, Zhao Yuanlang had no real power. After conquering Liangshan, he held on to the army and attacked cities and seized land everywhere, eliminating all kinds of bandits and pirates who did not submit to his rule. Even Zengtou City was captured by him.

Now his base camp is stationed in Liangshan Lake. He is too powerful to be eliminated, with more than 70,000 people, more ferocious than Song Jiang's bandits. If he is transferred north to resist the Liao Dynasty, he will be punished if he fails. If he succeeds, he will suffer heavy losses. Isn't it wonderful?

Zhao Yuanlang didn't care. He just waited and saw what happened.

The army set off immediately. Although Song Huizong wanted to weaken Zhao Yuanlang, he still did a good job of saving face, at least the food and fodder supplies were not lacking.

The Liao Dynasty also received the intelligence and immediately dispatched troops, but as the Jin Dynasty was pressing forward step by step, the Liao Dynasty did not have many troops, so it sold all its resources and mobilized 100,000 troops to stop Zhao Yuanlang from going north.

By the time Zhao Yuanlang's army arrived outside the city of Yanjing, the entire city had been impregnable by the Liao Dynasty.

Zhao Yuanlang did not care and signaled the army to set up camp. Three days later, when the siege equipment was almost ready, Zhao Yuanlang beat the drum to gather the troops, and the troops slowly stood outside the city of Yanjing in formation.

When an army attacks a city, as usual, they must fire cannons first. At the waving of Zhao Yuanlang's flag, Ling Zhen's artillery battalion immediately pulled out the cannons. Yang Zhi led a thousand sword and shield men to supervise a death squad of 5,000 Liangshan surrendered soldiers as they strode forward and formed a defensive formation.

Ling Zhen’s artillery battalion has thirty cannons. Zhao Yuanlang spent a lot of resources to get Ling Zhen to build this.

The Liao people were numerous and powerful. They actually rushed out of Yanjing and shouted and cursed in front of the city.

The leader was none other than Wu Yanguang, the number one general of the Liao Kingdom. In the original novel, he was at the same top-notch level as Lu Junyi and Shi Wengong, and was extremely powerful.

Since the opposing generals have all been dispatched, then our side definitely cannot send out generals. Shi Wengong received the general's order and rode forward.

Shi Wengong didn't waste any time talking to Wu Yanguang and just thrust his spear towards him. Wu Yanguang wanted to curse at him, but when he saw Shi Wengong's spear, it was like a spirit snake coming out, shaking the gun flower and heading straight for his chest. He immediately swung his iron-mixed steel spear and stabbed at the tip of Shi Wengong's spear.

Upon seeing this, Shi Wengong immediately changed his stabbing attack to a sweeping attack, and his spear turned into a phantom, trying to knock Wu Yanguang off his horse.

Shi Wengong changed his moves quickly enough that Wu Yanguang was a little careless and was caught off guard. He bent down to dodge and was hit by a bullet on the helmet.

Wu Yanguang's helmet fell off but he was not panicked. He waved the spear in his hand, which actually forced Shi Wengong to be a little flustered for a moment.

The two sides fought for more than sixty rounds. Seeing that he could not win, Shi Wengong rode his horse back and prepared to return to the camp. Wu Yanguang immediately rode forward to chase him. He knew that Shi Wengong's martial arts skills were not as good as his, and he would definitely counterattack, so he was secretly on guard.

Unexpectedly, Shi Wengong suddenly turned around, stepped on the precious bow, and shot an arrow.

The arrow was like a cold light. Wu Yanguang felt his throat go cold and he quickly bent down to avoid it.

The arrow was blocked, but the spear head immediately pierced into Wu Yanguang's chest. He was stunned, spitting blood from his mouth and looking at Shi Wengong: "What a trick of using an open arrow and a hidden spear."

Shi Wengong played this tactic very skillfully. He knew that he could not harm Wu Yanguang with just a surprise attack or a hidden arrow, so he combined the two methods into one and achieved great success. For a while, the morale of the Song army was high and everyone shouted "mighty".
