Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup
Chapter 356 War begins
Guan Sheng was taken away.
Of course, saying he was locked up really just meant giving him a separate tent and having someone watch over him.
From a general to a prisoner, Guan Sheng's fate changed dramatically in less than half a day, truly making one sigh at the unpredictability of life!
But Guan Sheng could only accept his fate; there was nothing he could do, since he needed this opportunity.
That evening, because the grain and fodder delivered by Li Bangyan were indeed plentiful, the entire army ate a very, very full meal.
Li Bangyan was no fool. Although he seized command of the army under the guise of supervising the army and imprisoned the former commander, he made sure everyone was well-fed!
Because of this, the soldiers didn't have much of a problem with him.
After all, Guan Shengcai has only been leading the team for a few days.
If you're going to follow someone, why not follow someone who can make you feel good about yourself?
Perhaps only Guan Sheng's own swordsmen would speak out for their general.
But Liangshan is unaware of these matters for the time being.
The next day, urged by Li Bangyan, the 20,000-strong army set off in an orderly fashion, preparing to arrive at the foot of Liangshan Mountain.
Liangshan had already prepared a solution to this situation.
The seven teams originally assigned to Renyuandian were already waiting here.
Hua Rong, Shi Bao, Hu Yanzhuo, Mi Sheng, Lu Zhishen, Sun Anhe, and Bian Xiang.
However, in order to reassure Bian Xiang and consolidate his power, Ren Yuan switched Bian Xiang's troops back and replaced them with Zhang Qing's troops.
He didn't command this battle; he let Sun An take command.
Does Sun An have command ability? Don't worry, he definitely does.
Moreover, Wang Yin was also sent down.
This was Wang Yin's first public appearance as a newly appointed trainee strategist.
"Brother Wang Yin, are you nervous?"
Sun An asked Wang Yin.
"It's alright, Brother Sun An, thank you for your hard work this time."
As a military advisor, command ability is very important. Wang Yin was facing a battle involving tens of thousands of people for the first time as a military advisor, which was indeed quite stressful.
That's why Ren Yuan had him follow Sun An, because Sun An was a brilliant strategist, and Wang Yin could learn a lot from him.
"Report! Commander, the government troops have moved!"
A scout reports that the government troops have already begun their advance!
"Oh? Guan Sheng is going to make his move so soon?"
Sun An was somewhat surprised, then he gave instructions to Hua Rong and Zhang Qing:
"Chief Hua, Supervisor Zhang, the task of luring the enemy is entrusted to you."
"Yes!"
Upon hearing this, Hua Rong and Zhang Qing stepped forward together and accepted the military order.
"绻貹."
"Brother Sun An, I'm here."
Mi Sheng looked on with anticipation.
"Your Lieshan Legion is in charge of the right flank."
"Yes!"
Mi Sheng accepted the order and went down to his post.
"Chief Steward Huyan."
"The end will be here."
"The Floating Pagoda Legion will be in charge of the left flank. This time, let's see the power of the Runing Heavy Cavalry."
"Order!"
Huyan Zhuo was also very excited. The last time the Runing Heavy Cavalry came to Liangshan, they didn't fight much. This time, he wanted to fight to his heart's content!
"The rest of you, follow me and hold the central command!"
There was no rear guard, because there was no need for one. The rear was Liangshan's main base, and there were many people watching it all the time. There was no need for a rear guard.
……
On the government army's side, Li Bangyan ordered an attack, but he wasn't stupid. The location Guan Sheng had chosen for setting up camp was indeed very good, and the camp was very well fortified, so there was no need for him to destroy it.
So this time he still left some men to guard the house.
As the army set off, Li Bangyan personally commanded the central army, with Xuan Zan as the vanguard and Hao Siwen bringing up the rear, while Shan Tinggui and Wei Dingguo protected him on either side.
Xuan Zan was seething with anger. Li Bangyan's actions yesterday had made him feel terrible, especially now that Guan Sheng was still imprisoned in the camp, which made Xuan Zan particularly upset.
How could his good brother be treated so unfairly? He didn't understand!
So this time, as the vanguard, Xuanzan kept urging his soldiers to advance, to the point that there was some disconnect between his troops and the central army.
"Lord Li, aren't the vanguard troops advancing a little too fast?"
Shan Tinggui and Wei Dingguo noticed Xuan Zan's situation and quickly spoke to Li Bangyan.
"It's alright, trust Xuan Junma. He has the ability. Besides, this is Liangshan's main camp. Who knows what awaits us along the way?"
"The prince consort is risking his life to pave the way for us, so let's not let his good intentions go to waste."
Li Bangyan said he didn't care. The vanguard was meant to be a warning force. As long as the central army was not in chaos, the vanguard would be gone.
“That may be true, but Lord Li, the central army still needs to maintain good communication with the vanguard. I will take some men and go there immediately to act as a bridge between the vanguard and the central army.”
Wei Dingguo's idea was actually quite sound, but Li Bangyan rejected it.
“Wei Tuanlian, you don’t need to think about it so complicatedly. Xuan Junma must have his reasons for doing this. Maybe he’s just trying to show weakness to the enemy. If you go up there, you’ll only ruin his plan.”
"Besides, the central army is the most important. Commander Wei, your mission is to protect the central army!"
Li Bangyan's words were particularly well-chosen and sounded very reasonable.
But Shan Tinggui and Wei Dingguo weren't fools; they naturally understood what Li Bangyan meant.
What do you mean by protecting the central army? Isn't that protecting you?
……
Xuan Zan was leading the vanguard forward, and he had only one thought in mind: to find someone to fight!
"Bangbangbang!"
A clapper sounded ahead, and suddenly more than a hundred riders emerged from around the corner. Each of these riders had long arms and a strong waist, wore brocade robes and flower hats, and was covered in light armor and longbows. They rode powerful warhorses!
The leader held a silver spear in his hand, with green leaves and gold flowers tucked into his temples. He wore a purple robe and silver armor, rode a small white dragon, and carried a precious carved bow at his waist!
The newcomer was none other than Hua Rong, the greatest archer in the land and commander of the fifth battle group of the Liangshan cavalry!
"The Liangshan stronghold lies ahead; all who come must halt."
Hua Rong held his spear horizontally, looking at the newcomer.
"Lord Xuan, are you leading men to attack the mountain today? It's only been a few days, and you've certainly become quite capable!"
Xuan Zan had some impression of Hua Rong. That day at the Liangshan Gathering Hall, when he said he wanted to have an archery contest, Hua Rong was the first person to stand up and challenge him.
"It's you! Perfect, I'll arrest you and exchange you for Guan Sheng!"
At this moment, Xuan Zan's mind was filled with thoughts of capturing people, gaining merit, and replacing Guan Sheng!
Moreover, he was particularly happy when he saw that Hua Rong had only brought a little over a hundred riders!
This incredible achievement just came about like that?
Over a hundred riders, my vanguard force, numbering three thousand!
"Catch me?"
Hua Rong smiled. Although he was there to lure the enemy, you're going to suffer a great loss if you look down on him, Little Li Guang!
"Brothers, let's show the government troops what we've got!"
At Hua Rong's command, the cavalrymen behind him simultaneously drew their bows and spurred their horses into motion.
"Your Highness, if you're so capable, catch up with us!"
Hua Rong also turned his horse around and rode away.
"Chase them! Don't let them get away!"
Xuan Zan led his team in pursuit, but as they rounded the corner, a sudden noise came from the sky!
Looking up, a dense rain of arrows was falling from the sky!
Xuanzan's eyes widened suddenly!
"Defend! Defend!!"
"My lord, this is a gift for you!"
