Text No. 469 Guan Sheng asks for help

Under the Liang Mountain.

The flags of the officers and soldiers were flying in the wind, and the military flags were neatly arranged, and the sound of the rattling was like a demonstration against Liangshan.

Except for a part of the men and horses patrolling near Shuibo led by Gong Wang, the camp of Guan Sheng's general army was located five miles below Liangshan.

With this five-mile journey, if Liangshan strikes first and leads the army to attack, the officers and troops will have enough time to respond to the battle. If the officers and troops are dispatched, they can also rush to the shore as soon as possible to take military action against Liangshan Shuibo.

It is really offensive and defensible.

However, at this time, in the big tent of the Chinese army in the official army camp, in addition to Guan Sheng and other generals in armor and Yang Jian, the military envoy in a gorgeous robe, there were two other figures in official uniforms: Cheng Wanli, the Taishou of Dongping Mansion and Liu Heng, the Taishou of Dongchang Mansion.

Guan Sheng looked at Cheng Wanli and Liu Heng who were sitting in front of him, and couldn't help but raise his hand, clasped his fists at the two and said: "Two Taishou adults, today Guan invited the two adults to come, not for other things, but to ask the two adults to help!" ”

"Oh?"

Cheng Wanli first glanced at Yang Jian, who was lazy on Guan Sheng's right side, with a look that had nothing to do with himself, and then looked at Guan Sheng, and the wrinkles on his old face were almost solidified:

"General Guan is polite, could it be that there is a shortage of food and grass in the army right now? If this is the case, General Guan can only give orders, Cheng Wanli will withhold his own rations, and he will never teach the soldiers who conquered Liangshan to starve! ”

"Exactly!"

When Liu Gao heard this, he immediately smiled and clenched his fists and said: "Why should the commander be polite, if there is not enough food and grass, directly teach Zhang Huqi to inform me Liu Heng." Although my Dongchang Mansion is not rich, in order to exterminate the thieves, I will definitely support it! ”

Hearing this, Guan Sheng looked at the smiling posture of the two people in front of him, and immediately knew that these two people were definitely deliberate.

Previously, when Guan Sheng led the army to join Zhang Qing and Dong Ping's subordinates, he had met these two people. Because of the divine will, these two men were not ambiguous about the issue of food and grass.

However, Guan Sheng didn't believe it, and the two of them didn't understand the purpose of calling these two people here at this time. Guan Sheng knew that because there were 10,000 soldiers and horses in Dongchang Mansion and Dongping Mansion in the army, these two people definitely knew a lot about the military situation of their own march!

"The two adults have been providing food and grass, Guan is grateful!"

Guan Sheng saw that the two old foxes were deliberately pretending to be stupid at this time, so he directly made his words clear: "This time, Guan invited the two adults to come, not for the sake of food and grass, but for the ship!" ”

"Ships?"

Seeing Guan Sheng say this, Cheng Wanli suddenly had a look of surprise on his face, and Liu Heng stared at each other, and at the same time, the corner of his eye looked at Yang Jian, the military envoy who was still tired and silent.

"The two Taishou, this place is already under Liangshan!"

Guan Sheng couldn't help but say again: "Previously, my army was like a bamboo, breaking through the five lines of defense set up by the Liangshan bandits all the way, and directly forcing the Liangshan bandits in the Liangshan cottage!" ”

"However, the two Taishou can also see that at the moment, this Liangshan thief is preparing to use the water under this Liangshan to block our army."

"Our army went out this time, and there was no sailor army with us. This time, if you want to cross this water to exterminate the Liangshan bandits, you need a large number of boats to cross our army across this water berth", saying this, Guan Sheng then turned short again and hugged his fist deeply at Liu Heng and Cheng Wanli in front of him: "At this time, Guan Sheng had to ask for help from the two Taishou Lords again, and I hope that the two Taishou Lords will help each other!" ”

"This ......"

When Liu Heng heard this, he suddenly looked melancholy.

"What, what's wrong with the two adults?" Seeing Liu Heng's hesitation, Guan Sheng hurriedly asked.

"Definitely!"

Liu Heng sighed and said: "General Guan, your request is really sudden, and the two of us are not prepared at all!" To tell you the truth, there are no ships in my Dongchang Mansion that can fight. If there is no decree from the Holy Lord, I, Liu Heng, will definitely not dare to build a warship privately, otherwise I, Liu Heng, will have nine heads, and it will definitely not be enough to cut it! ”

"Ahem!"

Seeing that Liu Heng deliberately distorted the meaning, Guan Sheng then said directly: "Liu Taishou, Guan Mou doesn't dare to teach you to violate the laws of the imperial court and build a warship." Guan Mou meant, as long as the two adults requisition some civilian boats or fishing boats within the boundaries of their respective prefectures, as long as they can transport soldiers, they can! ”

"Fishing boats?"

When Liu Heng heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned: "That fishing boat is very small, how many things do you need to be able to fit the army?" Besides, it's not convenient for fishing boats to fight, right? ”

"What Lord Liu said is not unreasonable!"

When Guan Sheng heard this, he immediately nodded and sighed and said: "Right now, Guan has reported the military situation here to the imperial court, and asked the saint to transfer the nearest naval army to help suppress Liangshan. But the report has just been delivered, and it will take some time to come back and forth. If my army were to sit here, it would be a bit inappropriate. At present, the requisition of fishing boats is only a stopgap measure! ”

"Lord Liu is too worried", Hao Siwen interjected at this time: "Although the fishing boat is a little small, according to the observation of the last general, most of the boats of the Liangshan bandits are also fishing boats. I think it was the fishermen who were tricked into going up the mountain and used their fishing boats as the warships of Liangshan! As long as there are enough fishing boats, as long as our army breaks the blockade of Shuibo and temporarily sets up a foothold on Naliang Mountain, then we can continuously transport the army up the mountain and teach Liangshan bandits to be wiped out! “

Hearing this, Liu Heng's eyes froze: "I'm afraid this matter is a little difficult to handle!\ Seeing Guan Sheng like this, Cheng Wanli couldn't help but look at Guan Sheng with a hesitant expression: ", Since this is the case, the two of us will think of a way, but I don't know how many fishing boats General Guan wants to requisition?" ”

Hearing this, Guan Sheng was stunned for a moment, paused, and then said: "The capacity of the fishing boat is too small, if it is too small, I am afraid it will be a little unhelpful." I don't know if the two adults can each raise 5,000 fishing boats, of course, if there are bigger fishing boats, it would be even better! “

"Five thousand each?"

Hearing this, Liu Heng couldn't help but gasp: "General Guan, you are really a lion's mouth." Don't say that I don't have 5,000 fishermen in my house, but if there are 5,000 fishermen, I will mobilize 5,000 fishing boats for you, I'm afraid that my Taishou Mansion will be demolished by those fishermen! ”

"Up to a thousand!"

Liu Heng said categorically: "If there are more, I really can't take it out!" ”

"A thousand?"

When Xuanzan heard this, he couldn't help but say: "This is really too little." Liu Taishou, can you think of a way again? ”

"So be it!"

At this time, Yang Jian, the envoy of the prison army, then stood up leisurely, looked at Liu Heng and Cheng Wanli in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "I said two adults, it is not us and others who benefit from the extermination of Liangshan bandits, but you." For now, you don't want to be so petty. This little fishing boat was requisitioned, so what's the matter. If there are Diao people who disagree, it is impossible to say that they are in collusion with the Liangshan thieves, and they must be dealt with strictly! ”

"Within your two prefectures, dispatch 3,000 fishing boats as soon as possible! Otherwise, if the army of 80,000 is here, it will be exhausted, what is the use! “

Seeing Yang Jian's words, Cheng Wanli and Liu Heng immediately didn't dare to support me anymore, and then said to Yang Jian in a deep voice: "The next official obeys the order!" ”

Seeing that Yang Jian spoke, this Cheng Wanli and Liu Heng had completely different attitudes, Guan Sheng and the others suddenly flashed a trace of displeasure in their hearts, but they didn't say anything at this time. Guan Sheng was no longer in the mood to care about these at this time.

Seven days have passed now, and there are still eight days left before the time set by the official family.

At the moment, he is blocked out of this water, and he is at a loss. Are these eight days really enough?

Seeing this, Zhang Qing looked at Liu Heng and Cheng Wanli's faces with disdain: Hmph, dog minion!

……

Zichen Palace. Morning.

"Your Majesty, I received a report from Guan Sheng today, and now Guan Sheng has led the army to break through the five blockades on the road of the Liangshan bandits, until the Liangshan cottage. But right now, Guan Sheng's army is blocked out of the water, but it is at a loss! “

Tong Guan said to the official report: "Right now, that Guan Sheng begs His Majesty to mobilize another nearby naval army to help him exterminate the Liangshan bandits!" ”

"What? Still want to transfer troops? “

The official family originally looked absent-minded, but at this time, when he heard the news that Tong Guan was going to transfer troops again, he immediately looked at Tong Guan and asked in a deep voice.

Although he didn't care much about those trivial things, when he heard that Guan Sheng was going to transfer troops, he was suddenly a little impatient: "I remember that there are already a lot of soldiers and horses that gave him this commander of soldiers and horses before, why do you still need to transfer troops?" ”

"Your Majesty".

At this time, it was Su Yuanjing, the former lieutenant of the palace, who stood up and said to the official family: "It's not that Guan Sheng's troops are not enough. Your Majesty didn't know that there was a water pool under the Liang Mountain, known as the 800-mile water pool, which was extremely wide. It is on this basis that the Liangshan thieves are kings."

"That Guan Sheng was like a bamboo all the way before, and directly beat the Liangshan thief Kou into his lair. Immediately, the Liangshan thieves could not hold out, and there were 800 miles of water outside as a barrier. In Guan Sheng's army, there is no water army, so it is blocked from being outside the water park, and it is impossible to fight with the thieves and completely eliminate the bandits! “

"I see!"

Hearing this, Zhao Guan's family looked in a trance, and then looked at the people in front of him and said, "Do you think that Guan Sheng's request for the transfer of the water army is feasible?" ”
