Text Chapter 465 Only defeat is allowed, but not victory
"The angel has arrived, Guan Sheng will take the order!"
Hearing this, Guan Sheng and the others hurriedly came out of the big tent, and saw that the person in front of them was wearing a sapphire blue embroidered crane robe, holding a whisk in his hand, wearing a peacock feather top jeweled hat, and there were several forbidden army guards with knives standing behind him, obviously from the palace.
Suddenly, Guan Sheng hurriedly stepped forward to bow down, and Hao Siwen and the others hurriedly followed closely behind Guan Sheng.
"Guan Sheng takes the order!" , Guan Sheng couldn't help but bow respectfully and said.
Seeing this, the eunuch who passed the decree immediately took out a holy decree with a golden shaft surface, unfolded it leisurely, and read it aloud to Guan Sheng and the others.
“…… Let your department quickly suppress the thieves, and within half a month, clear the bandits in Liangshan, and delay the rest. In addition, Nian'er and others fought on the battlefield, and gave hundreds of altars of imperial wine, thousands of silk horses, and 10,000 taels of silver to comfort the general. I hope that the general will live up to my hopes, cut it, cut it! Therefore, I hereby instruct that it is advisable to know."
Hearing this, Guan Sheng was stunned for a long time.
"General Guan, it's time to get the order!" Seeing this, the eunuch who passed the decree immediately urged.
Hearing this, Guan Sheng suddenly sighed helplessly, and then got up to receive the order: "Weichen Guan Sheng receives the order, thank God!" ”
Guan Sheng got up, then looked at the eunuch and said, "Father-in-law, within this half a month, the Liangshan thieves will be eliminated, this ...... Was this a bit of a rush? ”
"General, our family was only ordered to come to the labor army to deliver the decree, so don't embarrass our family. If the general has any orders, our family can take them back to Beijing together and present them to Your Majesty," the eunuch said suddenly.
"This ......", Guan Sheng was dumbfounded when he heard this.
Then, the eunuch pointed to the carriages behind him and said, "General Guan, here is the hundred jars of imperial wine given by the emperor, with thousands of horses of silk and ten thousand taels of silver. Now that General Guan has received the order, our family has to go back to the capital to resume their lives, so we won't stay more! Leave! ”
"Father-in-law, go slowly!"
The eunuch who sent the decree away, and several of them returned to the big tent. At this time, Guan Sheng looked at the holy decree in front of him, and suddenly felt that the other party was hot.
"Where is this labor army, it's clear that it's almost the one who came to oversee the army!" , Hao Siwen couldn't help but say.
"Alas!"
When Xuanzan and the others heard this, they also immediately sighed: "Since it is a holy order, we have to obey the order!" ”
"General!" , Dong Ping hugged his fist at Guan Sheng, and then said: "Since there is an order from the saint, if we don't obey, it will be a big crime to resist the decree." This half-month period, if we still follow the previous method of marching into the army, it will definitely not be enough. But if I wait for a moment and march as soon as possible, although the time is a little tight, it may not be impossible! ”
Dong Ping's voice fell, Guan Sheng couldn't help but look at Dong Ping and asked, "What do you mean......?"
"After all, Liangshan is a bunch of grass robbers. As the old saying goes, the tree falls and falls. As long as we take advantage of the situation to march into the army, the army will follow up repeatedly, and there will be no need for a few big victories, as long as the Liangshan bandit will be beaten back to the cottage, the Liangshan bandit will definitely be panicked. When the time comes, it will be possible to break through Liangshan within half a month! ”
Hearing this, Guan Sheng sighed helplessly: "For today's plan, this is the only way!" ”
"Pass the order, tomorrow five watch to make food, the army will follow step by step. Go to Xuanzan and Dong Ping as generals, and the rest of the people will follow up with me and lead the army! ”
"Yes!"
……
"Report, Yu military division, the front Hao Siwen and Gong Wang led the army to press up again, in front of Brother Liu Tang, Brother Shi Jin, and Brother Luan Fang are leading the army to fight, but the number of officers and soldiers is too much, Brother Shi Jin taught the villain to come to report and ask Brother Junshi to send a reinforcement to go!"
When Xiao Jiasui heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the junior colonel of the Shenji Battalion who came to report the news and said, "How many people are there in front of Hao Siwen and Gong Wang?" ”
"It is estimated that there are no more than 10,000, and there are still these 5,000 soldiers and horses behind, and they did not participate in the war!"
Hearing this, Wu Song, the walker beside Xiao Jiasui, and Xue Yong, the sick insect, and others immediately clenched their fists and asked for battle: "Brother Junjunior, teach me to wait!" If it's a little later, I'm afraid the first three brothers will lose! ”
At this time, Xiao Jiasui had a deep expression on his face, and asked Shi Qian, the flea on the drum beside him: "Brother Shi Qian, where is Guan Sheng now?" ”
Shi Qian hurriedly said: "My Shenji battalion has been monitoring day and night, and in the past two days, the army led by Naguan Shengqin has been less than five miles behind the forward troops!" ”
Hearing this, Xiao Jiasui couldn't help muttering: "Less than five miles away, you actually follow so closely." It seems that this is ready to increase troops anytime and anywhere! ”
Hearing Xiao Jiasui say this, Zhu Wu, the Divine Machine Military Master on the side, couldn't help but say with a deep face: "Strange, in just two days, this is already the third blockade line of my Liangshan under the mountain. Although the number of troops we have set up at the front is only 5,000, there should be a lot of these people. Could it be that this Guan Sheng put on this posture to be in a hurry to fight a decisive battle with our army? ”
"The two military brothers ......", at this time, Wu Song couldn't help urging again.
At this time, Xiao Jiasui had a deep expression on his face, and then shook his head slightly: "No, you can't fight with it." The opponent just wants to fight quickly, and if you fight hard with the other party, the casualties of our soldiers will also increase, and the gains outweigh the losses! ”
Speaking of this, Xiao Jiasui suddenly looked at Zhu Wu and said, "Brother Zhu, what is your opinion?" ”
"That's what the younger brother means. The previous Guan Sheng had just arrived, and he didn't dare to rush into the army. And at this time, Guan Sheng's move is nothing more than wanting to press my cottage step by step and make a menacing posture" Zhu Wu smiled and said: "At this time, he wants a decisive battle, but we just don't fight with him." I might as well wait and retreat again and teach him to continue to be proud! ”
"Brother, you can't retreat!"
At this time, Wu Song heard the words of the two, and immediately said: "Right now, I have already lost several battles in a row, if I lose again, wouldn't it be good to teach these officers and soldiers to laugh at me Liangshan No one!" Moreover, this is already the third line of defense. After that, it's the last two. If you keep retreating like this, you'll have to do it! ”
"Yes", Xue Yong, the sick worm, the faceless Jiao Ting, and the mourning god Bao Xu suddenly followed and said: "I'm waiting for the heroes of Liangshan, how can I be afraid of those officials and soldiers." If my brother gives an order, I will wait for this and go forward, so that those officers and soldiers can know that I am waiting! ”
Hearing Wu Song say this, Zhu Wu couldn't help but explain with a smile: "This is not the time to increase troops. If we add troops, the other party will definitely add troops again, and when the time comes, we want to retreat again, but it is easy to be bitten by others, and it is not easy to retreat! ”
Brothers, this is not the time for a decisive battle. What I have to do now is to lose without a trace. Brothers, don't forget the words of the Heavenly King's brother before
Immediately, Xiao Jiasui ordered Wu Song and said, "Two brothers, Luan Tingyu and Han Tao, order you to quickly lead the three thousand men and horses of the headquarters to meet the retreat of the three brothers on the front line!" Remember, don't fall in love! ”
"Yes!"
The two of them were ordered, and immediately flew on their horses and led the army away.
……
Yangsan. The Hall of Justice.
Chao Gai listened to Xiao Jiasui in front of him explain today's military situation, and his face was groaning.
"In this way, this Guan Sheng has begun to step up his offensive and wants to fight a decisive battle with me Liang Shanbo!"
Hearing this, Xiao Jiasui couldn't help but nod and said, "Judging from the situation in front of you, it is very possible!" ”
After speaking, Xiao Jiasui and Zhu Wu hugged their fists again and said: "Before, the two of us were still in charge of themselves, and did not increase troops on the third line of defense, but took the initiative to retreat. At present, the third line of defense has also been breached. ”
"Yes, the more Guan Sheng is in a hurry to fight the decisive battle at the moment, the more I can't be bitten by him!"
When Chao Gai heard this, he couldn't help but nodded: "Moreover, those lines of defense are just a bluff. If it is to increase the number of troops and defend it, it is not worth it. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Jiasui and Zhu Wu both glanced at each other, and sure enough, the Heavenly King's brother Fang was the one who understood himself.
"Come to think of it, at the speed of the other party, we will wait for the only two remaining lines of defense, the fourth line of defense, which should be attacked by the opponent tomorrow. As for the fifth line of defense, it can only be maintained until the day after tomorrow at the latest! Zhiduoxing Wu said with a goose feather fan in his hand involuntarily.
"In that case, I'll just plan it!" , Chao Gai groaned slightly, and then said.
Hearing this, Wu Song couldn't help but look at Chao Gai in front of him with a hesitant expression, and asked, "What does Brother Tianwang mean......"
"Brother Tianwang's meaning", Xiao Jiasui said with a smile: "We will give the remaining two lines of defense to Guan Sheng's army." ”
"Give it to them?"
Hearing this, Li Kui suddenly touched his head: "That means that the sect is about to withdraw?" In this way, aren't we tossing in vain? ”
"Brother Tieniu, don't worry", Xu Guanzhong couldn't help but smile: "The meaning of Brother Tianwang and Xiao Junshi is not to teach you to wait for all to return and directly remove those two lines of defense. And not only that, but I will have to send a little more troops to these two lines of defense tonight. Especially for the fifth line of defense, we must send more troops, and when the time comes, we must fight with the officers and soldiers! ”
"Huh?"
When Li Kui heard this, he was stunned for a moment: "Why don't I understand the more I listen?" Didn't you say before that you wouldn't increase your troops? Why do you have to give up two lines of defense, increase troops, and have to fight a big battle? ”
Seeing this, everyone present was immediately overjoyed. Ruan Xiaoqi on the side suddenly pursed his lips and smiled: "You idiot, you know how to drink all day long." Xu Junshi's move is called wanting to capture the old man, Xu Junshi, yes or no? ”
Hearing this, Xu Guanzhong couldn't help but be happy: "That's pretty much what it means!" ”
"Little Seventh Brother, then you tell me Tie Niu!" , Li Kui suddenly looked at Ruan Xiaoqi and said.
"Well, it's not fun to say it. Anyway, you just remember, this time, you won't be asked to work in vain. I will definitely tell you to fight well, but you have to pay attention to these two battles, my brothers, but don't use a lot of strength! ”
"Oh, why is that?"
"Because of these two games, we wait for my brothers, and we are only allowed to lose but not win!"
