Lin Chongzheng and Guan Sheng were fighting in the middle of the battle, seeing that Qin Ming was suddenly hit by an arrow and returned to the battle, he was also afraid that Xuanzan would release a cold arrow and force him to win, so he said with a smile: "Today's battle can be described as enjoyable, the day is already in the middle, and today we will stop fighting." Let's go back to eat first, and I hope your soldiers don't get used to it. ”

After speaking, he beat his horse back to the battle, and led the soldiers and horses to slowly retreat.

Guan Sheng saw that the sun was indeed noon, and the soldiers didn't sleep all night last night, and they had been on the road for half a day, and they were all extremely tired, and they didn't know if there were reinforcements in Liangshan, and they didn't dare to lead the troops to chase them.

When Guan Sheng found a place for the soldiers to bury the pot and make rice, he suddenly remembered that Lin Chong said that he was not accustomed to the water and soil, and hurriedly rushed to the place of rebellion.

At this time, the meal was ready, and the soldiers were waiting in line to serve it.

Guan Sheng saw that there were already soldiers in front of him who had begun to eat, and hurriedly shouted, "Stop, stop." ”

All the soldiers looked at the main general who was trotting in, and they all stopped inexplicably.

On weekdays, Guan Sheng's meals are delivered by special people, and the officers of the Huotou Army saw that Guan Sheng came over in person today, and they looked anxious, and hurriedly ran over and said, "General Guan, what's wrong?" ”

Guan Sheng nodded and said, "Where did you get the water for cooking today?" ”

"We got it from a small river in the north, and we asked the nearby villagers, and the water there was edible."

Guan Sheng shook his head and said: "You can eat it on weekdays, but you may not be able to eat it today, you stop giving food to the soldiers, and I'll let the military doctor see it." ”

When the officer heard Guan Sheng say this, he had no choice but to let the firehead army stop.

The soldiers in line didn't know the reason, and when they saw the stop, they couldn't help but curse.

"Lao Tzu was a soldier and ate food, and he didn't sleep all night last night. Today, I have been on the road for half a day, why am I not allowed to eat? ”

"That is, the emperor does not send hungry soldiers, and wants us to fight, and he does not give us food. Could it be that I ate more in the morning and didn't give it at noon? ”

"In the morning, we met two waves of Liangshan bandits, and in the afternoon, I don't know how many Liangshan bandits there were, so we won't leave when we are not allowed to eat."

Guan Sheng saw the sergeants making noise, and hurriedly said in a loud voice: "I'm worried that the Liangshan thieves have poisoned the river. So let everyone stop. Wait for the military doctor to check, if it's okay, everyone will eat again. ”

When the sergeants heard that Liang Shan might be poisoned, they immediately didn't dare to make any more noise to eat, but the soldiers who had already eaten some food turned pale with fright, and some hurriedly grabbed their throats, wanting to spit out the food they had eaten.

"Vomit"

"Vomit"

"Vomit"

There are also some who pull their comrades and confess their last words.

"Go back and tell my mother-in-law. Let her remarry. ”

"Tell my brother to let him be filial to his father, otherwise I won't be able to spare him."

For a while, the whole scene was even more chaotic. The soldiers who didn't eat were all happy.

Guan Sheng looked at the sergeants who were messing around, and he was afraid that the food was poisonous, and it was not easy to forcibly suppress those soldiers who ate the food.

Fortunately, soon the military doctor checked the food and came to report: "Return to the general." Meals were no problem. ”

When Guan Sheng heard this, he also put his mind at ease and let the Huotou Army have dinner.

The soldiers were fine when they heard that. I was able to eat again, and suddenly a lot of people who were not afraid of death appeared.

"I said it's not poisonous, you want to eat it just now, you have to stop me. is dead, and eighteen years later, he is a good man. ”

"Exactly, how can a suspicious person lead the troops, last night made people sleepless, and today they are not allowed to eat. We haven't arrived at Liangshan yet, but I'm afraid we'll die of exhaustion halfway. ”

"I heard that after the eunuch cut that, he was as suspicious as a woman, do you think it will ......?"

Xuanzan saw that a soldier who was eager to put his hand into his stomach and take out the rice just now began to curse Guan Sheng, and couldn't help but be furious, and shouted: "If you dare to criticize the general's military regulations, you will serve." ”

Guan Sheng didn't expect the sergeants to change so quickly, but he didn't rest after the army entered the Jeju territory, so it's no wonder they complained.

"Alright, let's go first"

Xuanzan also wanted to punish some sergeants, and seeing that Guan Sheng had already gone first, he could only glared at a few of the most ferocious soldiers and followed.

The three of them walked to the shade of the tree, and were about to eat, when they saw a horse galloping over.

"Report, there are Liangshan bandits attacking again."

When Xuanzan heard this, he hurriedly got up and said, "I'll go and order the whole army to assemble." ”

Guan Sheng thought for a while and said, "No, you and I will bring a thousand people on guard to meet you, and the thieves may not come much, so let the other sergeants continue to eat." ”

Xuanzan thought that there were indeed only 1,000 Liangshan thieves in the first two waves, so he also got on the horse with Guan Sheng and led a thousand soldiers and horses to meet him.

The two armies were still a few miles apart, and they saw that the soldiers and horses of Liangshan had turned back again.

Xuanzan watched the dust and smoke in the distance gradually disappear into the sky, and said: "It seems that there are not many thieves every time, so we slipped away when we were prepared." ”

Guan Sheng nodded and said: "The thieves are tired of the army, but I am afraid that there will be thieves and robbers along the way, which will make us tired." They only came more than a thousand people at a time, but our army was like a great enemy, supporting each other, and we were tired of running for our lives, and I am afraid that the soldiers of Liangshan would not be able to fight anymore. ”

When Xuanzan heard this, he frowned and said: "This Jeju governor is too incompetent, so that the Liangshan thieves come and go in Jeju as if they are in a no-man's land." Although we know that the Liangshan bandits are coming to harass, how can we guard against them? ”

"The Yangsan thieves are so powerful, it's good that Jeju Zhiju can keep the city, how dare he provoke the Yangsan thieves."

Guan Shengsi and the leaders of the Liangshan thieves he met today were as strong as one, and he didn't dare to let Xuanzan and Hao Siwen lead the troops, so he thought for a while and said: "In the afternoon, it is still divided into two armies, I will lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to open the way, and you and General Hao will lead the army to escort the grain and grass." If the former army encounters thieves, if I don't send someone for help, you don't have to rush to help. Just march normally, and beware of the bandits attacking the rear army. ”

Xuanzan also felt that if Guan Sheng was the pioneer himself, he would not have to be afraid of the attack of the Liangshan bandits.

After scaring off the wave of Liangshan soldiers and horses, Guan Sheng and others were able to have lunch with peace of mind, and then the army rested for half an hour, and then set off to Liangshan.

Sure enough, the afternoon march was still not peaceful.

First, the golden gun Xu Ning and the iron rod Luan Tingyu all the way, Guan Sheng finally killed the two.

After walking a few miles, the blue-faced beast Yang Zhihe did not block Mu Hong and brought people to kill again.

Guan Sheng had just killed the two of them, and the flower monk Lu Zhishen and the walker Wu Song led the troops to kill them again.

Guan Sheng fought four people in a row, already a little weak, seeing that the two were dressed as monks, I thought that the two would be more aggressive, but they were almost retained by the two of them, seeing that the situation was not good, forcing the two to fight and leave, fortunately, the two of them were fighting on foot, and they did not catch up with him, but they were driven into the battle by the two, and they were easy to kill.

It wasn't until the Chinese army came to the rescue that the two led their troops to retreat.

This time more than 1,000 people were lost. (To be continued.) )
