Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

When Lu Junyi arrived at the capital of Hizen, he saw the flag of Ma's 10th Legion fluttering above the city walls.

Faintly, one could still hear shouts of battle from inside the city.

"Sigh, looks like we won't even get soup. Let's go and meet up with Ma Shi's brothers."

Lu Junyi shook his head. The Ma 10th Legion had really made a name for itself this time.

However, he wasn't jealous. After all, they were all Liangshan brothers, and everyone had a chance to make a contribution. It wouldn't make a difference if they did it this time.

Moreover, after nearly two days of arduous operations, Guan Sheng and his men must be exhausted. Perfect timing, it's my turn next.

At this moment, Guan Sheng was indeed exhausted, and he was clearing out the remaining enemies in the city.

"Chief! The enemy king escaped with his men through the back door! We couldn't stop them!"

A battalion commander from the 10th Regiment rushed over, covered in blood, to report.

There was no way to stop everyone here; ten of their men weren't enough. They only had two thousand people in total.

"We can't catch up."

Guan Sheng wanted to continue the pursuit, but the nearly two-day long march had left him exhausted.

"Brother Guan Sheng, we've finally found you!"

"Brother Guan! Your humble servant has arrived!"

Just as Guan Sheng was about to force himself to give chase, Lu Junyi arrived!

Xuan Zan reacted quickly and immediately went to help Guan Sheng.

"Master, Old Xuan, what brings you here?"

Guan Sheng was quite surprised when Xuan Zan helped him up.

“You never came back, and your junior brother was worried about you, so he sent us out to look for you.”

Lu Junyi looked at Guan Sheng, who was covered in blood, and nodded slightly.

"But I didn't expect you to run so fast. In just two days, you actually destroyed three countries!"

"It's not entirely wiped out. We didn't capture any of the three rulers, one of whom was killed in an internal conflict."

Guan Sheng felt it was a pity that he couldn't capture someone of the highest rank.

"That's already quite good. Here, you rest, and we'll take over to clear out the remaining enemies here and pursue them, striving to take over all of Hizen Province's territory."

Looking at Guan Sheng's appearance, Lu Junyi knew that he was probably no longer able to fight.

"Alright, then thank you very much, Master Lu."

Guan Sheng thought about it and agreed to Lu Junyi's suggestion.

After all, he had already made many contributions on this trip, and Lu Junyi was the chieftain's senior brother and the leader of the cavalry. It wouldn't be a problem to let Lu Junyi have his way.

"Xuan Zan, then you protect Brother Guan Sheng well. Ma Jiu Legion, come with me!"

Lu Junyi didn't delay and led his Ma Jiu Legion to pursue them.

"Sigh, if I had another three thousand men, I wouldn't need Master Lu's help."

Guan Sheng had some minor regrets.

"Brother Guan, you've already done a great job, destroying three kingdoms in two days. Your ancestor, Lord Guan, would be proud of you. Now, you need to rest well."

Xuan Zan comforted Guan Sheng.

"Well, brother, I'm leaving the situation in this city to you."

"Don't worry, we Liangshan are short of laborers. I won't kill those who surrender indiscriminately."

Xuan Zan nodded, indicating that he understood.

The following day, Guan Sheng's troops rested in Hizen Province, while Lu Junyi and Pang Wanchun's troops pushed forward and conquered all of Hizen Province's territory.

However, they did not capture the Great Thai King of Hizen Province, because he led more than a thousand people across the Ariake Sea and fled to Higo Province.

When Lu Junyi and his men reached the shore of Ariake Island, they had no naval support, so they could only fire a volley of arrows at the departing ships from the shore before giving up the chase.

But it doesn't matter anymore, the territory of Hizen Province is now under the control of Liangshan!

Meanwhile, Miyuki and Sanshiki also successfully breached the Bungo Kingdom's government, and the Bungo Kingdom's ruler, Ōuchi-ji, also abandoned the country and fled!

Two days later, at the Chikugo Province government building.

Ren Yuan has already led his army and stationed here.

Because this is the front line for Liangshan's next attack on Higo Province, Ren Yuan, as the army's marshal, still prefers to be closer to the battlefield.

In the past two days, other groups of people have also arrived one after another.

"Brother, Lao Shan and I have conquered two countries!"

Mi Sheng and Shan Shiqi returned relatively quickly, mainly because they were closer.

"Sure, you'll be commended! Are there any troops stationed in the area?"

"Don't worry, brother. We've left Xie Zhen, Xie Bao, and the Wei Dingguo brothers there! There are several battalions of men there too, and the local people don't dare to resist at all."

Alright, the commander-in-chief has returned to report his achievements, while the deputy commanders have all been left to guard the area.

"here you go."

Hsu Kuan-chung and Hsiao Chia-sui also stated that Mi Sheng and Shan Shih-chi truly deserve praise this time.

"Strategist, you won't accuse us of acting without authorization, will you?"

Shan Shiqi was still a little worried.

"Don't worry, Brother Pei Xuan isn't here this time, so no one will scold you."

Hsiao Chia-sui said that if he hadn't been detained by Hsu Kuan-chung, he would have wanted to go out and fight!

"Brother, looking at the map, the northern border of Kyushu Island is now entirely under our Liangshan control! Brother, you're practically half the island lord now!"

Xu Guanzhong was very happy at this moment.

Indeed, in the past five days, Liangshan has been unstoppable, destroying five provinces: Chikuzen, Chikugo, Buzen, Bungo, and Hizen. If you connect the territories of these five provinces, that would be half the area of ​​Kyushu!

And most importantly, the plains of Kyushu suitable for cultivation are all in this area!

Where are our online army brothers now?

Ren Yuan suddenly asked.

"According to Lu Yuanwai's information, the navy has already detoured and entered the Ariake Sea. If we wish, we can block the sea outlet here!"

Xu Guanzhong marked the location on the map. The two legions of Liangshan's navy, Ruan Xiaoqi and Fei Bao, were already in position at the island's origin in the future! That location was directly opposite the sea outlet of Higo Province, and could block any escape route on the sea at any time!

Meanwhile, Ruan Xiaowu's navy remained stationed at Chikushi Port, which later became Hakata Bay, and took control of the local situation.

"Hyuga and Higo are separated by mountains, making it difficult for them to join forces. So let's concentrate our superior forces, using Chikugo as our forward base, and directly attack Higo!"

Xiao Jiasui drew an attack route on the map.

"Brother, we're starting from here. The entire route is flat, with only two important rivers along the way. There are no natural defenses. As long as our cavalry charges through, the Japanese pirates will definitely be unable to stop us!"

"Brother, that's not all. Look here, this is mountainous terrain. We can send a second army to launch a surprise attack on Hyuga Province via this route. This will not only further ensure that Higo Province does not receive reinforcements, but also allow us to circle around to Higo Province from behind and launch a pincer attack with our main army!"

Xu Guanzhong also drew a second attack route on the map.

"Mi Sheng, your Lieshan Legion is most skilled in mountain warfare. If you were to lead the mountain offensive this time, as the commander of our second army, would you dare to take on this heavy responsibility?"

"Huh? I'm going to be the head coach?"

Mi Sheng was somewhat stunned.

"No one knows mountain warfare better than you. I'm putting Shiqi, Master Yuanjue, the Bian brothers, and the Ma brothers' teams under your command. How about it? Can you do it?"

Hsu Kuan-chung directly provoked him!

"Strategist! Don't worry, leave it to me!"

After regaining his senses, Mi Sheng pounded his chest loudly!

Being a head coach? I can do it!
