Huyan Zhuo - Battle of Qingzhou

Battle of Qingzhou

Huyan Zhuo is afraid of returning to the capital after his defeat. He travels alone to Qingzhou (in present-day Shandong) to join governor Murong Yanda. Along the way, he passes by Mount Peach Blossom where his steed is stolen by the bandits on the mountain. Huyan Zhuo leads the Qingzhou army to attack the bandits and subsequently brings the Liangshan outlaws into the scene when they arrive to reinforce the bandits from Mount Peach Blossom. Huyan Zhuo falls into an ambush laid by the outlaws outside Qingzhou and is captured. He decides to join the Liangshan cause after being persuaded by Song Jiang. He aids the outlaws in conquering Qingzhou and eliminating Murong Yanda.

Famous quotes containing the words battle of and/or battle:

    Probably the battle of Waterloo was won on the playing-fields of Eton, but the opening battles of all subsequent wars have been lost there.
    George Orwell (1903–1950)

    Up from the South at break of day,
    Bringing to Winchester fresh dismay,
    The affrighted air with a shudder bore,
    Like a herald in haste, to the chieftain’s door,
    The terrible grumble, and rumble, and roar,
    Telling the battle was on once more,
    And Sheridan twenty miles away.
    Thomas Buchanan Read (1822–1872)
