"Don't be afraid, I've come to find you,"
"We just want you to lead us to the foot of Liangshan Mountain."
Chapter 1653 Strategies for Defeating the Enemy
The fisherman cried out, "General, spare my life!"
"You are fighting against the Liangshan army,"
"I'll lead you in, in case we get hit by arrows,"
"It wasn't a wasted life."
"A person has elderly parents to care for and young children to raise."
"Please, General, let me go back."
A school officer standing nearby glared at the fisherman and said, "You bastard, we wiped out the Liangshan bandits!"
"Then you can fish in this lake."
"If you keep nagging, I'll arrest you like a bandit from Liangshan."
The fisherman saw that the officer looked fierce.
His face turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly said...
"General, spare our lives! We will take you there."
Liu Menglong stared at the fisherman and asked, "Are you familiar with this reed marshland?"
The fisherman nodded and said, "Familiar, familiar."
"I will definitely take you to the foot of Liangshan Mountain."
Upon hearing this, Liu Menglong
His expression changed, and he shouted, "Take him down!"
Upon hearing this, the two sailors behind the fisherman
Immediately grab the fisherman.
The fisherman, looking panicked, said, "I didn't lie."
"I really can take you to the foot of Liangshan Mountain."
Liu Menglong stared at the fisherman and said, "I know you're not lying."
“You’re a bandit from Liangshan, so naturally you can lead us to the foot of Liangshan,”
"But I'm afraid you won't take us with you, will you?"
Upon hearing this, the fisherman hurriedly said, "I'm innocent!"
“I am just a fisherman, not a hero of Liangshan.”
Liu Menglong heard the fisherman refer to the Liangshan bandits as heroes.
He was even more convinced that he was right, and shouted,
"This reed marshland is located at the foot of Liangshan Mountain,"
"If you weren't a bandit from Liangshan, how would you be familiar with this place?"
The fisherman hurriedly said, "The heroes of Liangshan act on behalf of Heaven."
"They didn't occupy the waterway or prevent us from fishing."
"Only Liangshan forbids nearby people from going there,"
"People are free to come and go in this watery area."
Liu Menglong asked doubtfully, "Could it be that these Liangshan bandits really don't harm the common people?"
The fisherman nodded and said, "The heroes of Liangshan only kill corrupt officials and evil gentry."
"It does not disturb ordinary people,"
"Last summer, several days of heavy rain flooded many villages,"
"The heroes of Liangshan also distributed grain to relieve disasters."
The officer next to him said, "Could it be that these Liangshan bandits are actually chivalrous heroes of the martial world?"
Liu Menglong turned and glared at the officer, saying, "It's nothing more than a tactic to mislead the people."
"By what right do they claim to be the Lord of Heaven, or what principle do they represent?"
"Alright, order the army to prepare to advance."
Then he turned to the soldier who was holding the fisherman and said, "Let him go."
The fisherman hurriedly said, "Thank you, General. Thank you, General."
Liu Menglong nodded and said, "Watch the waterway carefully, so you don't take the wrong one."
The fisherman said confidently, "General, rest assured."
"I often fish in this pond,"
"There's absolutely no way we'll go the wrong way."
Guided by the fisherman
Liu Menglong's fleet entered the reed marshes one after another, one after the other.
The waterways in the reed marshes were indeed more winding.
There are many forks in the road.
It went around for more than a mile.
Liu Menglong could not remember the road.
After circling around for a while,
Looking at the foot of Liangshan Mountain that we were almost there,
Suddenly, a signal cannon shot rang out from the mountain.
The officers and soldiers on board looked around in surprise and doubt.
While Liu Menglong was also filled with surprise and doubt,
From the direction of Liangshan, where there had been no movement just moments before,
Suddenly, dozens of plumes of thick smoke rose up.
Chapter 1654 Arson
"Fire! Fire! The Liangshan bandits are setting fire!"
"There's some here too!"
"There's some over there too!"
Almost simultaneously, the soldiers on board cried out in alarm.
It was a complete mess.
Liu Menglong turned his head and looked around.
To their horror, they discovered that thick smoke was rising from all sides.
"Damn it, how come we didn't think the thieves would use fire?"
Liu Menglong looked at the withered yellow reeds on both sides.
He punched himself hard in the leg.
"Pass down the order: do not panic,"
"Follow me and charge out."
The fisherman who led the way was Ruan Xiao'er.
After Liu Menglong's naval forces, as scouts, launched their attack...
After discussing it,
So they decided to set the place on fire.
The reed marshes were vast.
They couldn't burn it all at once either.
Therefore, Ruan Xiaoer waited by the water's edge.
If Liu Menglong was looking for someone to lead the way,
He was then tasked with leading Liu Menglong's navy into a desperate situation.
If Liu Menglong did not seek a guide,
They'll probably get lost in the reeds too.
Ruan Xiao Wu will then appear disguised as a fisherman.
Lead them to the dead end.
Small boats loaded with large quantities of reeds and firewood had already been prepared around the area.
After the soldiers on the mountain saw Liu Menglong's navy enter the ambush,
Then they will fire a signal cannon.
As soon as the blasting cannon fired, fires were set off from all sides.
The simplest way to break this plan is for Liu Menglong to avoid entering the reed marshes.
They burned the reed marshes to the ground.
Then they marched straight in.
If people didn't want to fight at that time,
They could only rely on the water fortress to wear down Liu Menglong's troops.
Then lead it up the mountain.
We used the checkpoints to eliminate Liu Menglong's navy.
Unexpectedly, Liu Menglong was ambitious but lacked talent.
The Liang navy achieved their goal with a single fire.
Ruan Xiaoer saw that the people on the boat were in complete chaos.
Nobody paid attention to him.
He leaped into the water.
He laughed from mid-air, "Grandpa is off."
"Thief!"
When Liu Menglong heard Ruan Xiaoer say this,
They realized they had been tricked.
They were lured into a desperate situation.
He cursed angrily.
Then Ruan Xiaoer jumped into the water.
They chased after Ruan Xiaoer, who was fleeing ahead.
Ruan Xiaoer turned his head and saw Liu Menglong chasing after him.
He couldn't help but taunt Liu Menglong by beckoning him over.
It swam forward at a leisurely pace.
