However, many archers were overwhelmed by the Liangshan army's charge.
I still couldn't help but tremble.
Guan Sheng saw that the Liangshan troops had entered the range of the rangefinder.
He waved his hand and shouted, "Release!"
Amidst a burst of rapid bowstring twang,
Countless sharp arrows whistled into the air.
The sky seemed to darken.
Then came a scream.
Although protected by shields,
But under a barrage of arrows,
Many people still fell to the arrows.
However, the Liangshan soldiers did not stop.
They continued to charge forward relentlessly.
Although there is still some distance between them,
But some archers in the front row couldn't help but start to retreat.
Guan Sheng saw this and hurriedly shouted,
"Don't panic, the fortifications must stand,"
"Archers must not retreat."
The Liangshan army was about to crash into the camp.
Suddenly, a gong sounded from within the Liangshan formation.
Although the camp walls were already in sight
But then came the sound of retreating troops.
The Liangshan soldiers did not hesitate at all.
He turned and backed away.
Xuan Zan wiped away a cold sweat.
The steel knife he was gripping tightly loosened slightly.
Why did the Liangshan bandits withdraw their troops?
Guan Sheng watched as the Liangshan troops receded like a receding tide.
He was even more horrified.
It is likely that the discipline of the Liangshan army was extremely strict.
Otherwise, the soldiers wouldn't be able to command them so skillfully.
Unbeknownst to Guan Sheng, Liangshan had taken root in his heart.
They have transformed from bandits into soldiers.
Guan Sheng also felt that the retreat of the Liangshan troops was somewhat strange.
After thinking for a moment, he said,
"You will lead a thousand men to patrol the surrounding camp walls,"
"To prevent the thieves from attacking from other directions."
Chapter 1495 Huyan Zhuo's Night Walk
Zhao Yuan watched as his troops advanced and retreated in perfect unison.
He also nodded with satisfaction.
Orders must be obeyed,
The Liangshan army had already begun to take shape as a powerful force.
However, it still needs more battles to hone its skills.
It also needs to be tested by a more resilient enemy.
Defeating these so-called Imperial Guards is nothing to be proud of.
Only by defeating the Western Army,
Only then will they be qualified to fight a nation raised on horseback.
Then, the grandeur of the Han and Tang dynasties was restored.
Although Liangshan withdrew its troops,
But it did not recede.
They were still lined up outside the camp.
Guan Sheng couldn't figure out the Liangshan army's intentions.
He could only lead his troops to remain in the camp on guard.
The two armies faced each other across the camp wall.
It was almost noon.
The Liangshan troops then slowly retreated.
Guan Sheng watched as the Liangshan troops retreated.
Then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Many soldiers were already exhausted.
Seeing that their lives were no longer in danger,
He immediately collapsed to the ground to rest.
Guan Sheng looked at the soldiers, whose faces were full of sleepiness.
It wouldn't be good to punish them further.
A thousand people were assigned to guard the area.
He then told the rest of them to return to camp to rest.
The Liangshan troops did not return in the afternoon.
The soldiers in Guan Sheng's camp were finally able to rest for half a day.
It was getting dark.
The Liangshan troops did not appear.
However, Guan Sheng and his two companions were filled with worry.
Hao Siwen said worriedly,
"The Liangshan troops suddenly retreated in broad daylight,"
"Could they be planning a night attack?"
Xuan Zan shook his head and said, "If it really is a night attack, that would be good, as it would be a good opportunity to settle the score."
"I'm afraid they'll come and harass us again; that would be a real headache."
Guan Sheng nodded and said, "That's right, the soldiers have rested for half a day and are now ready to fight."
"I fear the bandits will come to harass us again."
Hao Siwen said, "If the entire army is on high alert, I'm afraid the bandits won't come."
"I would rather lead three thousand men to guard the position."
"If the bandits really attack, three thousand men can hold them off for a while."
Xuanzan rested for half a day and regained his energy.
"Brother, let me lead a hundred men to ambush outside the village,"
"If the Liangshan bandits come to harass us again,"
"So I captured them to prevent them from disturbing the whole camp."
Guan Sheng nodded and said, "Others will probably hide when they go."
"This matter can only be handled by you."
"After we wipe out Liangshan, we can take a good rest for a few days."
The three discussed it for a while longer.
Xuan Zan and Hao Siwen then went to muster the troops.
Guan Sheng was also very tired.
But I couldn't fall asleep.
After reading some military books,
I can't put my mind at ease.
He then walked out of the main tent.
They walked towards the camp gate.
The bright moonlight shone on the ground.
But it gave Guan Sheng a cold feeling.
Like the cold gleam of a weapon.
It sent chills down his spine.
Guan Sheng was wondering why he had this feeling.
But then a junior officer came running up to report.
A general rode alone to the camp gate, requesting to see the general.
Upon hearing this, Guan Sheng asked in surprise, "Didn't you announce your name?"
The junior officer said, "I asked him, but he wouldn't give his name."
"Just say you want to see the general. If the general doesn't see you, I'll send him away."
Upon hearing this, Guan Sheng hurriedly said, "No need, bring him to the main tent to see me."
Guan Sheng sent the junior officer to fetch the men.
He then returned to the main tent to wait.
He dared to break into a military camp alone at night.
It must be something important.
Even when the Liangshan bandits came to assassinate him,
Guan Sheng was confident that he would not be assassinated by a single person.
Before long, the junior officer brought a general with him.
Guan Sheng was startled when he saw it.
He waved for the junior officer to leave, and asked with a look of surprise and uncertainty,
"Aren't you a leader of Liangshan?"
"I seem to have seen him on the battlefield today."
Huyan Zhuo clasped his hands and said, "I am Huyan Zhuo. I previously led troops with the imperial court to attack Liangshan."
"I didn't want to fall into the enemy's trap, get trapped in their lair, and be unable to return to the court."
