Water Margin: The opening scene involves assassinating Emperor Huizong of Song and forcibly taking L

"Looks like the leader of the gang of players,"

"He's quite adept at charging into battle."

"But he only relied on brute force,"

"His martial arts skills, however, were crude and rudimentary."

"Just as I was about to take him, another person wielding throwing knives injured my warhorse,"

"That's why he escaped."

"The later cavalry leader, the Double-Gun General, only fought once,"

He pushed aside my steel spear and charged into the enemy lines.

"It's also difficult to determine his martial arts skills,"

"But look how easily he deflected my steel spear,"

"His martial arts skills are probably quite impressive."

Guan Sheng nodded and said,

"It must be Lin Chong, the Leopard Head,"

"I have heard of his name many times."

"Be extra careful when you encounter him on the battlefield."

The three then discussed military matters for a while.

Guan Sheng suddenly frowned.

"Today, the Liangshan bandits launched a surprise attack on our vanguard."

"They will probably take advantage of our troops' panic."

"Let's raid the camp under cover of night."

Hao Siwen was about to take revenge when he heard this and immediately said,

"Brother Guan Sheng, give me an army,"

"I led them to ambush outside the village,"

"If the Liangshan bandits dare to attack the camp,"

"I can attack from the flank,"

"Catch them off guard."

Guan Sheng and Hao Siwen have been friends for many years.

Knowing his martial arts skills and strategies,

I don't distrust him just because of today's minor defeat.

"Very well, then I'll assign you three thousand soldiers to ambush outside the camp."

"Upon hearing the drums of Dazhai,"

"Then we will attack the enemy from the flank!"

"After nightfall, you will lead your troops out of the camp quietly,"

"So that no Liangshan spies outside the village might see us."

After saying that, he turned to Xuanzan and said,

"Order the soldiers in the camp to keep their swords and armor with them at all times,"

"Each of you lie in ambush within your tent!"

"As soon as the drums of the main camp sound, we will charge towards the camp gate."

The three of them discussed it in detail for a while longer.

They then went to prepare.

Night fell early,

Only a few torches stuck in the stockade walls remained to ward off the darkness in the main camp.

This allowed the soldiers patrolling the stockade to see what was happening more than ten feet away outside the wall.

Besides the soldiers patrolling back and forth,

The soldiers have all gone into their tents to rest.

The entire camp was eerily quiet.

Luan Tingyu stood a few miles away with a group of leaders who were planning a night raid.

Quietly waiting for Shi Qian....

Chapter 1482 Why didn't you come?

quickly,

Shi Qian, dressed in all black, returned.

"Teacher Luan guessed correctly; Guan Sheng was prepared."

"The soldiers in the camp are all lying in ambush in their tents."

Luan Tingyu smiled and said,

"Guan Sheng is quite resourceful,"

"We were just attacked today,"

"How could they not have guarded against us raiding their camp at night?"

"Alright, let's go back."

"Let them keep watch."

"We'll come back and meet them again tomorrow."

Qin Ming and other leaders who advocated night raids

Hearing that Guan Sheng was prepared,

They were all secretly relieved.

If Luan Tingyu hadn't stopped him,

When they went on the night raid

I'm afraid they'll end up with a bloody head.

Now,

The group then quietly disappeared into the darkness.

Xuanzan waited in the tent until midnight.

There wasn't a sound outside.

Unable to resist, he went to the central command tent.

But they saw Guan Sheng reading a military treatise by the light of an oil lamp.

Guan Sheng saw Xuan Zan coming.

Put down the military treatise in your hand,

"What, can't wait any longer?"

Xuan Zan looked at Guan Sheng's calm and composed demeanor.

He couldn't help but secretly admire Guan Sheng's composure, and frowned as he said...

"There's still no movement,"

"What if the Liangshan troops didn't come?"

"It's still fifty or sixty li away from Liangshan from here."

Guan Sheng shook his head and said,

"The bandits have won a battle today,"

"We won't let this opportunity slip by."

"Or they'll have to wait until dawn,"

"Soldiers, be wary of raiding the camp when the enemy's strength is at its lowest,"

"You should go back now. If you're tired, you can sleep in your clothes for a while."

Xuanzan reminded,

"The soldiers in the camp can take a short nap,"

"But General Hao and his men, hiding outside the camp, couldn't close their eyes,"

"After days of marching, the soldiers are exhausted."

"If we remain on guard for another night, I fear the morale of the troops will waver."

"We should withdraw them; the Liangshan bandits see we are prepared."

"They wouldn't dare to raid our camp again."

Guan Sheng, however, was quite confident and shook his head, saying...

"No, what if bandits come to raid our camp?"

"By staying outside the camp, they can catch the Liangshan bandits off guard."

"If we all return to camp, we will be left with no choice but to be attacked."

"After we get them to join forces tomorrow, you will be the vanguard."

Xuan Zan saw that Guan Sheng had made up his mind.

They had no choice but to go back.

Hao Siwen, however, led his troops to lie in ambush outside the camp all night.

The Mid-Autumn Festival had already passed.

The weather is already cold.

The cold air is especially penetrating at night.

Although when leaving the camp,

They all put on extra clothes.

But after being blown by the night wind all night,

It's still terribly cold.

As dawn breaks,

Hao Siwen also lost her patience.

The Suo family sent scouts to investigate in all directions.

"Report: There is no sign of troops within ten miles to the east."

"Report: There is no sign of troops within ten miles to the west."

...Soon, the scouts from all sides returned.

The soldiers behind heard that they had stayed up all night for nothing.

They couldn't help but start cursing.

Hao Siwen also felt like she was about to vomit blood.

But he still turned his head and shouted.

"Shut up, all troops, return to camp."
