    Lin Chong was fighting with Guan Sheng in full swing. When he saw Qin Ming suddenly hit by an arrow and returned to the battle, he was afraid that Xuan Zan would fire a cold arrow and force Guan Sheng to fight. He said with a smile: "Today's battle has been an enjoyable one. The day is already in the middle. Let's stop fighting today. Let's go back to eat first.  I also hope that your soldiers will not be acclimatized."

    After saying that, he rode back to the formation and led the soldiers and horses back slowly.

    Guan Sheng looked at the sun and it was indeed noon. The soldiers had not slept all night last night and had been driving for half a day. They were already extremely exhausted. They did not know whether there were reinforcements in Liangshan, and they did not dare to lead troops to pursue them.

    When Guan Sheng found a place for his soldiers to bury pots and make rice, he suddenly remembered that Lin Chong said that he was not accustomed to the climate and the soil, so he hurried towards the place of rebellion.

    By this time, the food had been prepared and the soldiers were queuing up to be served.

    Guan Sheng saw that the soldiers in front were already eating, and he quickly shouted: "Stop, stop."

    The soldiers all stopped inexplicably as they looked at the trotting general.

    On weekdays, Guan Sheng¡¯s meals are delivered to him by special personnel. When the officer of the Huotou Army saw that Guan Sheng was coming in person today, he looked anxious again and hurriedly ran over and said, ¡°General Guan, what¡¯s wrong?¡±

    Guan Sheng nodded and said, "Where did you get the water for cooking today?"

    "We got it from a small river in the north. We asked the nearby villagers and the water there is edible."

    Guan Sheng shook his head and said: "You can eat it on weekdays, but you may not be able to eat it today. You should stop giving meals to the soldiers. I will let the army doctor take a look before talking."

    Hearing what Guan Sheng said, the officer had no choice but to ask the Huotou Army to stop.

    The soldiers in line didn't know the reason, and when they saw the stop, they couldn't help but cursed.

    "I serve as a soldier to eat food. I didn't sleep all night last night, and I drove for half a day today. How come I'm not allowed to eat?"

    "That's right, the emperor wants us to fight without starving soldiers, but he doesn't give us food to eat. Is it possible that we ate more in the morning and don't give us food at noon?"

    "We encountered two waves of Liangshan bandits in the morning, and I don't know how many Liangshan bandits there were in the afternoon. We will not leave until we are allowed to eat."

    Seeing the commotion among the sergeants, Guan Sheng hurriedly said loudly: "I'm worried that the Liangshan bandits have poisoned the river, so I asked everyone to stop. Let's wait until the army doctor checks it. If everything is fine, we can eat again."

    When the sergeants heard that Liangshan might be poisoned, they immediately did not dare to make any more noises to eat. However, the soldiers who had already eaten some food suddenly turned pale with fear. Some of them hurriedly picked their throats and tried to spit out the food they had eaten.

    "vomit"

    "vomit"

    "vomit"

    There were also some who held their comrades in hand and confessed their last words.

    "Go back and tell my mother-in-law to remarry."

    "Tell my brother to respect his parents well, otherwise I won't be able to spare him."

    For a time, the whole scene became more chaotic, and the soldiers who had not eaten all looked happy.

    Guan Sheng looked at the chaos of the sergeants, and was afraid that the food was poisonous, so he could not forcefully suppress the soldiers who had eaten.

    Fortunately, the army doctor soon checked the food and came over to report: "Go back to the general, there is nothing wrong with the food."

    After hearing this, Guan Sheng felt relieved and let Huotoujun start eating.

    As soon as the soldiers heard that everything was fine and they could eat again, many people who were not afraid of death suddenly appeared.

    "I just said it was not poisonous. I wanted to eat it just now, but you had to stop me. Even if you die, you will be a good man again eighteen years later."

    "Exactly, how can you lead an army with suspicion? Last night, we kept people awake all night, and today we don't even allow them to eat. We haven't reached Liangshan yet, and I'm afraid we'll die of exhaustion on the way."

    "I heard that after the eunuch had his penis cut off, he became as suspicious as a woman. Do you think it could be"

    Xuan Zan saw that one of the soldiers who just wanted to put his hand into his stomach and take out the rice began to curse Guan Sheng. He couldn't help but became furious and shouted: "Don't dare to criticize the general's military regulations again."

    Guan Sheng did not expect the sergeants to change so quickly, but considering that the army had not rested since entering the borders of Jeju, no wonder they had complaints.

    "Okay, let's go first"

    Xuan Zan wanted to punish some soldiers, but seeing that Guan Sheng had already left first, he could only give a few soldiers who made the most trouble a hard look and follow them.

    The three of them walked to the shade of a tree and were about to eat when they saw another Tanma galloping towards them.

    "Report, there are bandits from Liangshan attacking again."

    After hearing this, Xuan Zan quickly stood up and said, "I'm going to give the order for the whole army to assemble."

    Guan Sheng thought for a while and said: "No, you and I will just go up to you with a thousand people on guard. There may not be many thieves coming, so let the other sergeants continue to eat."

    Xuan Zan: Think about the previous two waves of LiangshanThere were indeed only a thousand bandits, so they mounted their horses with Guan Sheng and led a thousand soldiers and horses to meet them.

    The two armies were still several miles apart when they saw Liangshan troops turning back again.

    Xuanzan watched the dust and smoke in the distance gradually disappear into the horizon, and said: "It seems that there are not many thieves coming every time, and they escaped when we were prepared."

    Guan Sheng nodded and said: "The thieves are using this strategy to exhaust their troops. I'm afraid there will be constant harassment by thieves along the way, making us exhausted. They only come with more than a thousand people at a time, but our army is like facing a powerful enemy, supporting each other and exhausted, I'm afraid  After reaching Liangshan, the soldiers were unable to fight any more."

    Hearing this, Xuanzan frowned and said, "This Jeju magistrate is too incompetent. He allows the Liangshan bandits to come and go in Jeju as if they are in no one's land. Although we know that the Liangshan bandits are coming to attack, how can we guard against them?"

    "The Liangshan thieves are so powerful. It would be good if the governor of Jeju can keep the city. How dare you provoke the Liangshan thieves?"

    Guan Sheng thought about the fact that the Liangshan bandit leaders he met today were more powerful than the others, and he did not dare to let Xuan Zan and Hao Siwen lead the troops again. He thought for a while and said: "We will divide into two armies in the afternoon. I will lead three thousand troops to open the way. You and Hao  The general will lead the army to escort the grain and grass. If the front army encounters bandits, there is no need for you to come to rescue them. You can just march normally and be careful of bandits raiding the rear."

    Xuan Zan also felt that if Guan Sheng personally served as the vanguard, he would not have to worry about attacks by Liangshan bandits.

    After frightening off the wave of Liangshan troops, Guan Sheng and others were able to have lunch in peace. After that, the troops rested for half an hour before setting off for Liangshan again.

    Sure enough, the afternoon march was still uneventful.

    First, the golden gun general Xu Ning and the iron rod Luan Tingyu were together, and Guan Sheng finally killed the two of them.

    After walking a few miles, the green-faced beast Yang Zhihe came to kill Mu Hong again with his men.

    Just after Guan Sheng killed the two men, Lu Zhishen, the flower monk, and Wu Song, the traveler, led their troops to kill them again.

    Guan Sheng fought four people in a row and was already a little tired. Seeing that they were both dressed as monks, he thought they would be more aggressive, but they almost joined forces to keep them in. Seeing that the situation was not good, he forced them to leave and left.  The two of them were fighting on foot and could not catch up with him, but they were driven into the formation and easily killed.

    It was not until the Chinese army came to rescue that the two men led their troops to retreat.

    This time more than a thousand people were lost.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
