Liang Yongjie, a doctor of modern history, accidentally traveled to Songjiang, the lord of Liangshan Village. He knew the tragic ending of Zhao'an in the original work and was determined to change his fate. Relying on modern military theories, political strategies and historical knowledge, he developed Liangshan from a place where grass bandits gathered to form a military empire that overthrew Zhao and Song Dynasties and swept across other countries. He eventually reshaped the territory of China and established a new dynasty.
