Water Margin people

Chapter 455
"It seems that the people from Liangshan didn't come after them!"

Hu Yanzhuo stopped his horse and looked at the back and said, Guan Sheng beside him also stopped, and there were only forty or fifty riders left with him.

"There are only so many people left."

Guan Sheng's face was gloomy. The two disastrous defeats made him realize a problem. Liangshan is not an ordinary bandit village, and he is not able to deal with it at all.

"Hey!"

Hu Yanzhuo sighed, with such a disastrous defeat, it is impossible for him and Guan Sheng to go back to Tokyo, and there will be no other way to go back this time except prison.

"I don't want the two of us to lose to the bandits!"

Hu Yanzhuo looked at Guan Sheng with a wry smile and said, all these years he only wanted to garrison the border, kill the enemy to serve the court, and recast the glory of his ancestors, but he never thought that he would be defeated by Liang Shan today, even twice.

"Liang Shan is far more powerful than you and I imagined. Their cooperation today...hey, I haven't seen it even in the military."

Guan Sheng sighed and said, the first time he lost to Liang Shan, he still felt that he was ambushed and attacked. If the outcome of the head-on confrontation was uncertain, but today he was defeated head-on.

Lei Heng pointed to the broken soldiers outside the city and said to Huang Wenbing.

Hu Yanzhuo looked at Guan Sheng and invited him. At this time, Guan Sheng had nowhere to go like him, and he was lonely when he went to Dengzhou alone, so it is better to go together with two people.

Hu Yanzhuo looked at Guan Sheng and said, if they go back to Tokyo now, they will inevitably be assassinated. This golden seal will be a stain that will never be erased for a lifetime. He is not willing to go back and plead guilty just because of the golden seal on the faces of Yang Zhi and Lin Chong.

Hu Yanzhuo found another reason to comfort himself. The Forbidden Army is the elite of the Song Dynasty. Wang Jin, Lin Chong, and Xu Ning are all excellent instructors in the Forbidden Army. Training soldiers is easy.

"Quick, go back to Jeju!"

"What? Lost again!"

"General Huyan, do you have a plan for the next step? I'm afraid Yuncheng won't be able to go back."

"Brother Zhu, what shall we do?"

"The magistrate and minister, there are soldiers coming back from defeat."

……

Huang Wenbing didn't hesitate at all when he heard this, and immediately led people down the city wall, preparing to go back to Jeju.

Guan Sheng shook his head, and now he can only comfort himself with this reason, but he vaguely feels that things are not that simple.

Lei Heng has lost his mind, he is familiar with taking people out to make money, and he does not know how to manage the county government.

"There are soldiers from the front routed back!"

"I'm going to Dengzhou. Hu Yanqing, the commander of Pinghai in Dengzhou, is my clan. I'm going to join him. I'll wait for the court to amnesty me, forgive me, and return to the court after I have made military achievements!"

"Open the city gate first, and contain the broken soldiers!"

"Okay, let's go to Dengzhou together."

Hu Yanzhuo pointed to the mountains to the east and said, they are considered deserters now, and in a few days all the state capitals will order arrests, and they will not be able to leave officially.

"It's not good! It's not good! A big defeat ahead!"

"We can't take the official road now, I'm afraid we will take the mountain road to Dengzhou!"

Lei Heng's face on the city wall changed drastically. The last time he was defeated, it could only be said that Liang Shan was well prepared. They left in a hurry and were caught off guard. How could the [-] official army be defeated in a frontal decisive battle?
"You guard the city gate, I'll inform the prefect Huang!"

"Hey, they have Wang Jin, Lin Chong, and Xu Ning. It is not surprising that they have trained such elite soldiers and horses. Those three are all very powerful training instructors in the Imperial Army."

"Okay, go directly to Qingzhou to Dengzhou."

Huang Wenbing was so frightened that he dropped the pen in his hand, propped his hands on the desk and shouted.

Zhu Dian and Lei Heng's expressions froze, but they could only respond. There are only more than 100 local soldiers in Yuncheng. If Liangshan's army comes, how will they defend the city?

Huang Wenbing rode on his horse, looked at Zhu Tong and Lei Heng, and said, Shi Wenbin had already left Yuncheng for Tokyo in the morning, and the county magistrate of Yuncheng is currently vacant, so it is logical that Huang Wenbing, the magistrate, is in charge, but Huang Wenbin was not sent by anyone for a while , can only let Zhu Dian and Lei Heng take care of it temporarily.

After thinking about it, Guan Sheng agreed. Whenever there is a happy event in the imperial court, he will amnesty the world, and then they will be innocent and free.

After the two discussed, they walked towards the mountains with the fifty or sixty riders around them.

Huang Wenbing slapped the city wall and roared angrily.

"Yes, the magistrate!"

Guan Sheng looked at Hu Yanzhuo, Huang Wenbing was in Yuncheng, but he couldn't go back, Huang Wenbing wanted to punish him last time, but this time he failed miserably, he was afraid he would be sent to Tokyo for punishment if he went back, he had no backer in Tokyo , There is not much money to dredge.

"The magistrate! The front is defeated!"

Zhu Tong opened his mouth and said.

Huang Wenbing threw down such a sentence and led people out of Yuncheng and went straight to Jeju.

Huang Wenbing couldn't sit still any longer, got up and left the mansion, heading towards the city gate.

"What! A big defeat ahead?"

Hu Yanzhuo nodded and said, he is an expert in military training, and the serial armored horse was made by him, and the cooperation of the Liangshan horse-buried army far surpassed the words "elite".

"You two guard Yuncheng well, the new county magistrate will arrive soon!"

"Trash! It's all trash!"

Walking up the tower, there were already nearly a hundred rout soldiers outside the city.

"Where's Hu Yanzhuo? Where's Guan Sheng? Where's Han Tao? Where's Peng Qi?"

Huang Wenbing yelled at the rout soldiers outside the city, he looked around but did not find the four leading the troops out, [-] armored cavalry, [-] infantry, carrying [-] three-bow bed crossbows, and they had only been out of the city for half a day lost?How does this make him accept?How to explain to Gao Lian?
How could the rout soldiers below dare to answer, all of them drooped their heads and did not dare to look at Huang Wenbing.

"Maybe."

Guan Sheng looked at Hu Yanzhuo with a complicated expression on his face. Hu Yan's family was the founding general of the Song Dynasty, and they were still active in the army for more than 100 years. Naturally, the network of relationships was nothing to worry about, which he couldn't compare.

Guan Sheng nodded and said, this is exactly what he wants, what he is most afraid of now is to show up in front of people.

"Mister Prefect, the battle ahead is defeated, Liangshan soldiers may attack, please return to Jeju as soon as possible!"

But Zhu Tie and Lei Heng couldn't shirk it, not to mention that they were the capitals of the city, and their family members and friends were still in Yuncheng, so how could they run away like Huang Wenbing?
"Work hard, the government will not treat you badly!"

"Everyone has underestimated Sun Lei. With this giant bandit in Jingdong, I am afraid that there will be no peace in the future, and I don't know what the result will be."

Zhu Ting walked into the lobby and cupped his fists at Huang Wenbing to report.

"Brother Guan, why not go to Dengzhou together, we are all defeated generals, why not lie dormant for a few years and wait for a chance!"

Yuncheng.

A confidant next to Huang Wenbing said, Yuncheng is just a small county with a small city wall and cannot be defended by a large army. If people from Liangshan come here, they will probably be destroyed.

Zhu Dian has a point.

Some rout soldiers fled back to Yuncheng, shouting in horror from the city.

After Zhu Ting confessed, he hurried down the city wall and headed towards the magistrate's yamen.

"Put it in? What if there are people from Liangshan in it!"

Lei Heng was shocked, the gate of the city must not be opened.

"There are only more than 100 soldiers in our city and dozens of yamen servants. How can we stop the people from Liangshan? We can only rectify the broken soldiers and let them assist in defending the city!"

Zhu Tong said helplessly that it would be risky to open the city gate and let in the rout soldiers, but now they have no choice.
