Chapter 1101 Wei Dingguo, Shan Tinggui, an underrated general
Guan Sheng was looking at the strong soldiers and horses coming from the front, and a military flag was displayed on the front with the words "Sun An, the dragon slayer of Wu Rui Camp", and there were more soldiers and horses killing each other from the two sides.
On the other side of a dark cloud, it is like a raging fire in the south, and in front of it is a red embroidered flag to lead the army, with seven silver characters on it: "Shenhuo General Wei Dingguo"; on the other side, there is also a red embroidered flag to lead the army, with seven words written on it: "Shenhuo General Wei Dingguo".
Silver characters: "Holy Water General Shan Tinggui".
When Guan Sheng was still serving in the Pudong Inspection Department, he met Shan Tinggui and Wei Dingguo several times by chance. Guan Sheng also knew that Shan Tinggui was famous for his ability to soak soldiers with water.
People call him the Holy Water General, and Wei Dingguo is proficient in the art of fire attack. He specializes in using firearms to kill people in battle, so he is called the Divine Fire General. Although Guan Sheng has not personally seen Shan Tinggui and Wei Dingguo's ability to use water and fire attacks, now
In my heart, I just lamented that there are two people who are capable of serving as military officers and generals, but they have become strong leaders.
Sun An, who was opposite Guan Sheng's troops, was wearing a military uniform and carrying two iron swords on his back. When he looked at Guan Sheng who was leading the army in front, he saw that he was wearing matching gold armor and green robes, and his crotch
The red rabbit and horse are like soaring red clouds, and the green dragon crescent moon knife in their hands is shimmering with cold light. It looks like a phoenix with its eyes pointing up to the sky, and its face is like a jujube. The three willow mustaches and beautiful beard under its chin also look quite majestic, and I can't help but secretly praise it.
Then he read: "This person is Guan Sheng, the general who helped Brother Xiao Tang conquer the vicious bandits several times? He is indeed a good-looking person. Now he must be an enemy of Guan Sheng. It is a pity...
..”
The three generals Shan Shiqi, Wei Dingguo and Shan Tinggui also rushed forward. Among them, Shan Shiqi was the first to say: "Brother Qianfan conquered Tian Hu and that fellow in Hedong. I was ordered to lead the Qing Taoist from Pona in Liangshan with my brother Shi Jin."
When I went to Tongtian County, I also heard that Guan Sheng had a lot of power, but I never got to see him. I don't want to see him today, but I want to become his enemy."
The eagerness on Wei Dingguo's face was beyond words, and he added: "Brother Shan Tinggui and I were born as officers and generals in Hebei Province, but now we are not sharing the same cause with the brothers? We have some friendship with Guan Sheng, but we are different.
In the past, our subordinates didn’t know each other’s abilities. My brother sent people to the village to mobilize two of us brothers to lead our troops to fight against Guan Sheng. He must have believed that we two would be of great use. Hehe... Now that Guan Sheng has come here
Now, I will intercept him here again. Naturally, I will kill him first and then make peace. If he is willing to surrender, I will take him to the mountain. If he is not willing to surrender, I will continue to argue. At least I will not be able to live up to my brother's trust!"
Shan Tinggui, who had a more calm temperament, saw that his brother Wei Dingguo, who shared weal and woe with him and had the same spirit, was full of fighting spirit and seemed to be a blazing fire. He immediately said: "Brother, please don't be impatient. Brother, too."
He once praised Guan Sheng for his extraordinary martial arts skills and unstoppable bravery. He also said that in a fierce battle with him, we should only fight him with the tactics we are good at. If we bump into him in a chaotic battle, we should try our best to avoid fighting him.
.Anyway, everything should be done according to the strategy laid out before. Of course, this battle cannot be lost, and of course we cannot give in or retreat from the battle. If possible, it is best not to kill Guan Sheng, Xuan Zan, and Hao Siwen. If possible,
Only by capturing him alive can we fully achieve Brother Xiao Tang's share."
Sun An, who was originally commanding the Wu Rui Camp, was temporarily guarding the key passes of Bozhou. Hearing that Xiao Tang deliberately mobilized Wei Dingguo, Shan Tinggui led his troops to leave the stronghold and came to the rescue. He said that the Divine Fire General and the Holy Water General were also with Guan Sheng and others.
Generally speaking, people who have fought side by side with Brother Xiao Tang in the official capacity must be unique in the method of fire attack and water immersion that they are good at, so that they can convince their brother that they can defeat Guan Sheng this time, so he said
"When the two brothers show their ability to attack the enemy with fire and water, even if they are trying to win and ride into the formation unexpectedly, I think that my martial arts skills are not inferior to those of a good general with extravagant means. I will intercept them. This time
In the first battle of the battle, brothers Shan Shiqi and I led our troops to resist the officers and soldiers first and act as a decoy, so that the two brothers could arrange according to the plan."
Generals Wei Dingguo and Shan Tinggui looked at each other and said to Sun An: "With the trust of brother Sun An, and with the help of brothers from Wurui camp, we will definitely live up to the trust!"
After saying this loudly, Wei Dingguo and Shan Tinggui clapped their horses and went forward first to call Guan Sheng in front of the formation.
When the officers and soldiers on Guan Sheng's side saw the strong bandits flying the banners of Wei Dingguo, the divine fire general, Shan Tinggui, the holy water general, and Sun An, the dragon slayer of the Wurui battalion, Xuan Zan also clapped his horse and walked to Guan Sheng's side, coldly.
Heng said: "The bandit army arrived too soon! The troops from the two mountains in Qingzhou have repeatedly defeated the official army over the years. They seem to be very rampant. They refuse to guard the city. Instead, they rush over to fight with us!"
Yes, the rebel army did come very quickly... Guan Sheng secretly thought, but he thought that his dispatch of troops this time was a little sudden, but the strong bandits from the two mountains in Qingzhou had already known the movements of the army, and he
We wanted to take Bozhou first and then advance to the two mountain strongholds in Qingzhou. However, we encountered enemy troops when we marched here. So the military intelligence information obtained by the strong bandits from the two mountains must have been too well-informed and timely, right?
At this time, Guan Sheng saw Wei Dingguo on the opposite side. Shan Tinggui and his two generals all rode out. Wei Dingguo took the lead and reined the war horse, and laughed loudly: "General Guan Sheng, you haven't been here for a long time!"
Guan Sheng snorted coldly, thinking that since he had to fight with the strong bandits from the two mountains in Qingzhou, even if he was an acquaintance in the past, he couldn't show any sympathy. He then joined the battle and shouted: "You are a mad man who betrays you.
I have been owed a favor by the imperial court with my national salary, but now I don't know whether to live or die, and I am leading the army to come. What kind of courtesy can we have between you and me?"
After hearing this, Shan Tinggui said: "General Guan is a bad man. Nowadays, the officials are ignorant. The treacherous ministers in the court have manipulated power, favored people, abused and abused people. They have subdued the righteous men with great ambitions. They were originally lieutenant generals to protect the family and the country."
Officials, most of them have become hawks and dogs who abuse their official positions and suppress the people! The elder brother of our two brothers, Chief Quan Yu, is benevolent and upholds justice for heaven. He specially ordered us two to come here today because he is also waiting for General Guan to come here to make a move.
Please. If you won’t give up, please return to the mountain stronghold together.”
Based on Guan Sheng's temperament, how could these few words convince him? His face immediately became even more sullen, and he shouted loudly: "The heavenly soldiers are here, but they still resist, but they want to talk to Guan, and become you, the bandit of the green forest.
How dare you humiliate me! If you don't dismount and accept surrender, I will make your two bodies shatter into pieces!"
Hearing this, Wei Dingguo seemed to be really aroused. He raised his sword and shouted: "Guan Sheng, you don't know how to give way to a good man! We brothers are polite first and then soldiers, because you are the descendant of Guan Yunchang, the righteous and brave King of Wu'an.
We still have some old feelings for each other. Do you really think that our brothers are afraid of you? In the past, we just treated each other with courtesy, but you didn’t know the abilities of our two brothers. Now I can’t explain it to you, but I can teach you how to understand the two of us.
It’s awesome!”
"Thief! Since you know that I am a direct descendant of the righteous and brave King Wu'an in the late Han Dynasty, have you ever heard of a descendant of the Guan family who is willing to be a thief? Since you are willing to be a thief, what old friendship can you talk about?"
Guan Sheng yelled angrily, thinking that this battle was not only to defeat Wei Dingguo in one fell swoop, but also the second general Shan Tinggui, the two strongholds of Erlong Mountain and Qingfeng Mountain in Qingzhou were connected together to make a big impression, and the leader of Qingfeng Mountain Stronghold was the dragon slayer. Sun An, if we can capture him alive in this battle, it will be like cutting off an arm of Quan Yu, the leader of several mountains. Guan Sheng then shook his head, waved the sword in his hand, and ordered the officers and soldiers behind him to prepare for a fight!
Behind him, Xuan Zan, who had been waiting impatiently, immediately raised the steel sword in his hand and ordered all the generals, officers, and prison troops to line up in formation. He immediately stepped forward, picked up the sword in his hand, and swept through the border step by step. , like a tidal wave, it rushed towards the strong enemy soldiers and horses who were waiting for them on the opposite side!
Upon seeing this, Wei Dingguo and Shan Tinggui also returned to their own formations. Generals Sun An and Shan Shiqi also ordered their troops to line up to prepare for the enemy. Behind the infantry formation with shields and guns in front, pairs of bows and arrows were fired. He also stepped forward, with the sharp arrow on the string and the bow in his hand. The leader of the archers stared coldly ahead at each move, just waiting for the command from the camp's commander Sun An to go ahead. Shoot arrows at the officers and soldiers approaching in formation on the opposite side.
However, when the two generals Wei Dingguo and Shan Tinggui returned to the formation, a fierce fire and a dark cloud seemed to be surging behind the murderous Wurui camp, waiting for a good opportunity and getting ready to attack!
