Chapter 387 Tong Guan Takes Command

"Xuan Zan, you are in charge of the left road! Hao Siwen, you are in charge of the right road! Zhao Yuanlang, the rear army is waiting! Everyone else, follow me!" Guan Sheng gave the order.

Song Jiang and his men looked at Guan Sheng's extraordinary appearance, cheered secretly with Wu Yong, and turned around and said to the many good generals: "The general is a hero, and his reputation is well-deserved!"

Good, boost the enemy's morale and destroy your own prestige. As soon as Song Jiang said this, some people were dissatisfied. As long as it was not Zhao Yuanlang, what Guan Sheng, do you really think you are the ancestor Guan Erye? You are just a person who sells his head.

"Water Margin bandits, how dare you betray the imperial court! Song Jiang, come out quickly and fight me."

Song Jiang rode out on his horse, bowed to Guan Sheng and said, "Song Jiang, a minor official from Yuncheng, greets the general."

Guan Sheng said: "You are an official, how dare you betray the court?"

Song Jiang replied: "Because the court is not clear, it allows treacherous officials to take power, slanderers to monopolize power, and corrupt officials to frame the people of the world. Song Jiang and others are acting on behalf of heaven and have no other intentions."

Guan Sheng was a little annoyed: "The heavenly soldiers are here, but you still resist! You are so flattering, but if you don't dismount and surrender, I will crush you to pieces!"

Someone in the back couldn't hold back any longer. The Devil King Fan Rui rushed out and said, "That red-faced man, don't be so arrogant. You are the descendant of Guan Erye. I don't know how capable you are. I am the Devil King Fan Rui. I won't fight you today. Let's each send out 2,000 people and fight. Let me see whether you are worthy of the reputation of being the descendant of Guan Erye."

Fan Rui is a smart man who always mentions Guan Erye. Guan Sheng is very famous, but because of the influence of Guan Erye, he has always wanted to stand out and create his own glory.

"Okay, I will fight you."

Horns were blown on both sides and flags were waved. Fan Rui, leading his two brothers, led two thousand men out of the central army. Guan Sheng did the same. He led two thousand men to form a military formation, waved flags and shouted, and began to gradually move forward.

"Hahaha, red-faced man, you fell into my trap! My two dear brothers! Teach him a lesson!" After Fan Rui shouted, he began to chant a spell and waved the sword in his hand.

There was a strong wind, flying sand and rocks, the sky was dark, and the sun and moon were invisible.

Xiang Chong and Li Gun each led 500 sword-wielding warriors into the battle array. Guan Sheng's main battle array was already in a state of panic, and the blood flowed like a river as a result of the killing of these 500 sword-wielding warriors. The two of them went straight for Guan Sheng. Although Guan Sheng was blinded by the wind and sand, he relied on his superior martial arts to force the two of them to retreat, and ordered the horn to be blown to withdraw the troops.

But Fan Rui had already led a thousand men to attack, and Guan Sheng's army was caught and could not break free for a while.

Xuan Zan and Hao Siwen were shocked and immediately led their troops to rescue them. Fan Rui was even happier now. He held his sword in his hand and silently said, "Quick! Quick!"

Well, Xuan Zan and Hao Siwen were also trapped by the magic. When the allied forces saw this, they immediately rushed forward and killed the Song army so much that blood flowed like a river.

Zhao Yuanlang of the rear army saw that Guan Sheng was surrounded by an army of seven or eight thousand men, so he quickly signaled Ling Zhen to fire, and he led Qin Ming, Hu Yanzhuo, Lin Chong, and Dong Ping to attack and rescue Guan Sheng.

"Hahaha! The invincible Zhao Yuanlang in the world! I've been waiting for you for a long time, watch my magic! Hurry!" Fan Rui had been paying attention to Zhao Yuanlang in the rear army. Zhao Yuanlang had gained such a great reputation, so naturally many people were not convinced. Fan Rui was one of them.

I saw rolling yellow sand mixed with strong wind blowing towards Zhao Yuanlang. Zhao Yuanlang didn't care. He pulled out the command flag from behind, waved it a few times, and muttered something. Thunder flashed in the sky, and heavy rain fell on the battlefield. Fan Rui's magic was broken in an instant.

When Fan Rui saw that his magic was broken, he immediately used a new magic. However, before he could use the new magic, he saw water in the sky turning into ice, and countless hailstones fell towards him. He immediately realized that he was no match for Zhao Yuanlang, and immediately signaled his men to call off the battle.

When the other bandits saw Fan Rui sounding the horn to call back his troops, they immediately followed suit and retreated.

In this battle, the Song army was defeated, Xuan Zan and Hao Siwen were captured, and more than 3,000 soldiers were lost. If Zhao Yuanlang had not taken action, it is estimated that at least 5,000 to 6,000 soldiers would have been lost.

Behind Song Jiang, Gongsun Sheng frowned as he looked at Fan Rui who had returned, thinking about the message his master Luo Zhenren had given him some time ago. Only then did he understand why his master had told him to run away or surrender directly as soon as he met Zhao Yuanlang.

Gongsun Sheng had no idea what these two spells were, but he could see Fan Rui's spell clearly.

Guan Sheng returned to the camp like a defeated rooster. He had lost all his glory. He lost 3,000 soldiers, and Xuan Zan and Hao Siwen were captured. Looking at the scrutinizing eyes of Zhao Yuanlang's men, Guan Sheng could not raise his head.

In order to consolidate his position, Guan Sheng decided to lead his army in a night attack. The risk of a night attack was extremely high, after all, night blindness in ancient times was quite fatal.

But Guan Sheng had no other choice but to take a gamble.

Guan Sheng was defeated in his night attack. Most of the bandits in the waterside camp came to aid Liangshan. Although they numbered only five or six thousand, Guan Sheng met Fan Rui. Fan Rui cast a spell, and Guan Sheng's army lost their way as soon as they rushed into the camp, and could not tell which way was which.

Hooks and talons came out from all directions, and Guan Sheng was dragged off the carved saddle, his sword and horse were taken away, his clothes and armor were removed, and he was pushed from the front and back and taken into the main camp.

Well, Guan Sheng and his three thousand soldiers were basically captured alive.

"Sir! Let me take people to bring them back!" Hu Yanzhuo was extremely angry.

“Why are you in such a hurry? We just want to embarrass the imperial court. Since the imperial court suppresses us so much, we must embarrass them. Those soldiers cannot die, and Song Jiang and his men dare not kill them. If they really kill them, it will attract an army of 100,000.” Zhao Yuanlang crossed his legs and didn’t care.

After hearing what Zhao Yuanlang said, the other generals in the tent fell silent. It was the one who had the final say. That’s right, in the face of absolute strength, it was the one who had the final say, and Zhao Yuanlang had the final say.

Soon, the news of Guan Sheng's defeat and capture reached Bianliang City, and Gao Qiu and Cai Jing were severely reprimanded by Song Huizong.

In the hall, no one spoke. Song Huizong narrowed his eyes and looked at the ministers below.

Tong Guan came out and said, "Your Majesty, the Liangshan bandits have already formed a force, but those who have gathered are all petty thieves and thieves, so there is no need to worry! I, a humble man, will personally lead a group of soldiers and horses, and clear the water and return in time and on a certain day."

"Are you willing to lead the troops yourself to wipe out the bandits? Isn't that giving them too much face?" Song Huizong felt that Song Jiang and others were nothing more than bandits, and it was a little inappropriate to send out his confidant Tong Guan.

Tong Guan knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the ancients often said: Filial piety should be done with all one's strength, and loyalty should be done with one's life. I am willing to serve you like a dog or a horse to eliminate the threat from your heart."

"Good!" Song Huizong was very happy. Tong Guan was indeed his confidant.

Cai Jing and Gao Qiu's faces turned pale. That bastard Tong Guan played this trick very well. He led tens of thousands of troops and the mere bandits would have been wiped out. This was a fucking credit that was stolen.

Cai Jing could not let Tong Guan get his way, so he rolled his eyes and came up with a plan: "Your Majesty, Lord Tong does not know the advantages of the terrain, but Zhao Yuanlang, the general manager of the Dongping army, has defeated the Liangshan bandits several times and has made great contributions. Zhao Yuanlang has 10,000 men left, so let him be the general of the rear army, and Lord Tong will be the commander-in-chief. The eight armies under the jurisdiction of Dongjing will each raise 10,000 soldiers, and the other 20,000 will guard the central army. A total of 110,000 troops will be raised to wipe out the bandits!"

"Do we need so many soldiers and horses?" Song Huizong was a little unhappy when he heard Zhao Yuanlang's name.

"Reporting to your majesty, Liangshan has received assistance from bandits from all corners of the country, and their number has reached more than 20,000. Liangshan Lake is vast, and they occupy the advantage of water. With so few people, I'm afraid some of them may escape." Gao Qiu hurried out to report.

After hearing this, Song Huizong nodded and said, "Good."

Tong Guan, however, looked unhappy and cursed in his heart, "Damn Cai Jing and Gao Qiu."
