As night fell, only some torches embedded in the wall were left in the camp to expel the darkness, so that the soldiers patrolling the wall could see the scene outside the wall.

Except for the non-commissioned officers patrolling back and forth in the camp, the sergeants have all entered the tents to rest, and the whole camp is quiet and terrible.

Chao Yong stood a few miles away with a group of leaders who were going to attack at night, quietly waiting for the time to change.

Soon, Shi Qian, who was dressed in black, returned and said, "Brother Yong'er guessed correctly, Guan Sheng had already prepared, and the sergeants in the battalion were all ambushed in the tent. ”

Chao Yong said with a smile: "Guan Sheng is quite strategic, he has just been raided for a while, how can he not prevent us from stealing the camp at night." Alright, let's go back and let them go to the vigil. Ming said that we would meet them again. ”

Dong Pingping, the leader who advocated the night attack, heard that Guan Sheng had already taken precautions, and he also secretly called it a fluke, if it wasn't for Chao Yong to stop them, when they went to the night attack, they were afraid that they would hit their heads and bleed.

At that moment, several people quietly disappeared into the darkness again.

Xuanzan waited in the tent for half the night, seeing that there was no movement outside, and couldn't help but come to the big tent of the Chinese army, but saw Guan Sheng lighting an oil lamp and reading the military book.

Guan Sheng saw Xuan Zanlai, put down the military book in his hand, and said with a smile: "What, can't you wait?" ”

Xuanzan saw Guan Sheng's calm and relaxed appearance, and couldn't help but secretly praise Guan Sheng's qi cultivation skills, frowned and said: "There is still no movement now, will the Liangshan soldiers and horses not come." It's still fifty or sixty miles away from Liangshan. ”

Guan Sheng shook his head and said, "The thief has won for a while, so he won't let go of this opportunity." Or they have to wait until dawn, when the sergeants are on guard against stealing the camp at the lowest time, and you go back, and you will sleep when you are sleepy. ”

Xuan praised: "The sergeants in the camp can take a nap, but General Hao They hid outside the camp but couldn't close their eyes. It's better to withdraw them back, the Liangshan thieves see that we are prepared, and they don't dare to come to steal the camp again. ”

Guan Sheng was quite confident, shook his head and said: "No, if the thieves come to steal the camp, they can be caught off guard by staying outside the camp." If we all return to camp, we will only be beaten passively. Ming said that after they are united, you will be the pioneer. ”

Xuanzan saw that Guan Sheng had made up his mind, so he had to go back.

Hao Siwen took the soldiers and horses to ambush outside the village overnight, at this time the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, the weather is cold, especially at night.

Although I put on clothes when I left the camp, I was still very cold when I was blown by the night wind.

Seeing that the sky was getting brighter, Hao Siwen was also impatient, and the surname Suo sent a detective horse to investigate around.

"Report, there are no soldiers and horses within ten miles to the east"

"Report, there are no soldiers and horses within ten miles to the west"

…… Soon, the horses from all sides returned.

When the sergeant heard that he had stayed up all night, he couldn't help but scold his mother.

Hao Siwen also felt a little vomiting blood, but he still turned his head and shouted: "Shut up, the whole army will return to the camp." ”

After saying that, he took the lead and came to the camp.

The soldiers in the back stayed up all night, and they were already sleepy and hungry, and when they heard that they could go back to the camp, they all ran to the camp with their feet drawn.

Guan Sheng heard Hao Siwen leading the army back to the camp, and also came to the camp gate to greet him.

Although Hao Siwen is Guan Sheng's righteous brother, he still strictly guards in front of everyone.

Seeing Guan Sheng coming to greet him in person, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "How dare you bother the Lord to greet you." ”

Guan Sheng said embarrassedly: "Guan made a mistake in expecting the enemy, and the tired soldiers stayed awake all night, so I am here to ask for guilt." ”

As he spoke, he threw himself to the ground with the crowd.

Hao Siwen also knew that Guan Sheng's move was buying the hearts of the army, although they had court documents, but the fifteen thousand soldiers and horses were from all over the country, and the hearts of the people were not aligned, Guan Sheng was just a county patrol before, he was even more white, and there were many people in the army who were not satisfied, and there was an oolong tonight, I am afraid that there will be more dissatisfied people in the camp.

After the army entered the camp, Guan Sheng asked the Huotou Army to bury the pot to make rice, and specially instructed the Huotou Army to prepare more food than before.

Soon, the camp was filled with the smell of food.

The soldiers also smelled the smell and flocked to eat.

Guan Sheng also brought Xuanzan and Hao Siwen to appease the soldiers.

Many of the soldiers sat down on the ground tired to eat, and when they saw the Lord coming, they hurriedly got up and saluted.

Guan Sheng hurriedly stretched out his hand to signal everyone not to get up, he was also a little speechless, so he could only pat the shoulders of a few soldiers along the road and nodded at them.

A few soldiers who were patted on the shoulder by Guan Sheng were suddenly in high spirits, in their opinion, the generals of 15,000 people could pat them on the shoulder, which could be regarded as the glory of the ancestors, and the complaints in their stomachs suddenly turned into nothing.

Guan Sheng and the three of them walked around among the soldiers and soldiers, and then walked to the tent where the officers were eating.

As soon as he walked to the door, he heard himself talking inside, so Guan Sheng stopped and listened.

An officer didn't know that Guan Sheng was already standing outside the tent at this time, continuing to sell his news.

"I heard that Guan Sheng was only a Pudong patrol before, and he only brought dozens of people, but this time he can be the main general, and he is still a eunuch."

When all the officers heard such exciting news, they couldn't help but be interested, and they gathered around and said, "How do you know? ”

The officer saw that everyone looked humbly seeking advice, and his vanity was also greatly satisfied, and he said proudly: "I have relatives who serve in the Privy Council, and I know that I have also been transferred to conquer Liangshan, so he specially sent me a letter to tell me to be careful. ”

An officer worried: "In this way, we are afraid that it will not be easy for us to conquer Liangshan this time." ”

The officer shook his head and said, "If I can go back safely, I will burn high incense, and I dare not think about killing thieves and receiving rewards." The former army of 3,000 people was killed by more than 1,000 Liangshan thieves in just a while. There are only a few leaders of Liangshan, and the leopard head Lin Chong, the red-haired ghost Liu Tang, the double whip Hu Yanzhuo and others have not been seen, if these leaders of Liangshan come together, how many people may die. ”

When an elite officer heard this, he shook his head and said, "Liangshan is just a gang of thieves, no matter how powerful it is, how can it stop our 15,000 elite soldiers." ”

"If there is a general in command, we are not vegetarians, so we can naturally exterminate the Liangshan bandits, but I am afraid that we will not meet a good general."

The elite officer said: "I heard that Guan Sheng is a descendant of the martial saint, the family lineage, there must be something extraordinary, otherwise how could the imperial court send him to lead the troops." ”

An officer, who had apparently just returned from outside, muttered, "If he had the ability to score three points of martial arts, he wouldn't have let us wait all night in vain." ”

When Xuanzan heard this, he was so angry that he wanted to break in and teach them a lesson.

Guan Sheng hurriedly grabbed him, shook his head, and motioned for him to go outside.

After walking a few steps, Xuanzan couldn't help but say: "Brother stopped me from doing anything, these guys dare to complain and slander the main general, and when they are arrested, they can be rectified by military regulations." ”

Guan Sheng shook his head and said: "This matter is a big trouble, it is harmful and not profitable, okay, you will also go to rest, and start in an hour." ”
