Chapter 274: Guan Sheng's defeat, troops march into Daming Prefecture
If a heavy infantryman could reach the mobility of a light infantryman, he would have no weaknesses.

All weaknesses are due to insufficient strength and insufficient equipment.

It is said that "one Han can defeat five Barbarians", which refers to the crushing of the Han technology over the foreign tribes on the grassland.

The infantrymen under Wu Song faced the government troops head-on without fear, which was a result of their individual strength and equipment crushing them.

They rushed all the way to Guan Sheng's camp, and when they were only three miles away, Guan Sheng panicked.

He couldn't understand why those heavily armored soldiers didn't collapse at such a long distance?

If it were the imperial guards, they would be paralyzed after running three miles in armor, so how could they have any fighting power?

"We can't let them get close to the camp..."

Guan Sheng's scalp tingled. If he gave the order to evacuate the camp now, given the quality of those imperial guards, there would definitely be a camp cry.

Besides, the baggage train was not moving very fast.

There was a gunner named Ling Zhen in Guan Sheng's army. His nickname was "Thunderbolt". He was from Yanling and was good at making cannons. He was originally a gunner of the deputy envoy of the Tokyo Armory. When Hu Yanzhuo attacked Liangshan, he could not cross the water, so he asked Gao Qiu for Ling Zhen's help.

But before Ling Zhen could reach Shandong with the Thunderbolt Cannon, he was defeated miserably at Dulonggang.

So Ling Zhen went to Guan Sheng's army.

Today, Wu Song's three thousand infantrymen are approaching, and Ling Zhen knows that it is time for him to make a contribution.

So they set up thunder cannons in the camp and waited for the enemy to arrive.

But there was no sign of the enemy, but we were met with real artillery fire.

"Boom boom boom..."

There was a deafening fire in the camp. The tens of thousands of soldiers had never seen such power before, and they immediately jumped up and down and scattered.

"Big Knife" Guan Sheng had been leading the cavalry to harass the enemy. When he turned around and saw his own camp engulfed in artillery fire and tens of thousands of troops scattering, he knew that the situation was hopeless.

Then, he got hot-headed and launched a general attack on Wu Song.

He knew that going back would mean death.

Guan Sheng rode up on his horse, the sword in his hand whistling.

"Buzz buzz buzz" a circle of cold flowers was shaken out in the air. Such a dance was so light, as if this big Guandao was not made of steel at all, but paper.

Regardless of its weight, this sword is indeed extremely ferocious. The blade is as thick as a door panel and the handle is as thick as an arm, all of which are made of water-ground steel.

The sharp blade seemed to have many tiny teeth, flashing a fierce light, making people shudder at the first glance.

The blade has many sharp and fine teeth, but it is not the blade of an ordinary sword.

Such a broadsword looks like a knife but is not a knife, like a saw but is not a saw. It is exactly the original image of the broadsword on the ancient battlefield, specially designed to destroy armored heavy cavalry.

Guan Yu’s Green Dragon Crescent Blade is also called “Cold and Beautiful Saw”, which is like this.

The saw-like blade of the knife, after chopping onto the smooth iron armor, can saw through the defense by simply dragging and pulling it without slipping.

This is a killer weapon on the battlefield.

Wu Song sneered, and two snowflake iron knives appeared in his hands. At the same time, a tiger also wearing heavy armor rushed out from the infantry group.

Why aren't these three thousand infantrymen equipped with cavalry?
It is because there is a tiger with white forehead and hanging eyes hidden among the infantry. How can the horses not be afraid when they smell the tiger's scent?

The yellow horse under Guan Sheng's buttocks suddenly neighed, and let him drive it, not daring to get close.

At this time, Wu Song was already striding over.

With a swipe of the knife in his hand, he knocked the yellow horse to the ground.

Guan Sheng had lost his mount, so how could he defeat Wu Song in a foot fight?

In an instant, Guan Sheng roared, and a green sword light with an explosive sound and a rolling sword intent slashed towards Wu Song.

When Wu Song defended with his two swords, his true energy spread throughout his body, like a Buddhist arhat, with a faint golden color all over his body.

Then two golden sword energies struck back, and the two slashed hundreds of times in a row.

"hold head high!"

With a dragon's roar, a green dragon flew out from Guan Sheng's sword energy, roaring angrily.

The Eastern Green Dragon belongs to wood and can transform into thunder.

Amidst the lightning and thunder, Wu Song's golden body became more and more dazzling.

"Guan Sheng, you can't beat me, Wu Song!"

The two swords penetrated the sword energy and slashed on the big Guandao. A statue of Acalanatha appeared behind Wu Song.

He chanted in his mouth: "Thus I have heard. The Buddha said that the Vidyaraja is the wrath of the Buddha, burning everything..."

Boom!

The image of the Acalanatha shook again, and an extremely huge golden Acalanatha with one head, four faces, eight arms, and a vertical eye between the eyebrows rose up from the void.

As soon as this Acalanatha appeared, the vertical eye between his eyebrows opened immediately, and from the vertical eye there seemed to be endless red flames.

Rumble!
The Acalanatha did not attack Guan Sheng, but flew up and chopped down a group of Taoist priests in the distance. The space under his palm seemed to explode as if it were real, and heat waves rolled!

Rage ignited the void.

At the same time, the Taoist priests of the Shenxiao Sect used the Daoist Art of Attracting Thunder in their hands and shouted, "Thunder is coming!"

There was a loud thunder in the sky, and a flash of lightning broke through the dark clouds.

"Lightning Mother and Thunder God, quickly send down your magical powers! Thunder will come to those who... fight...!"

Lightning flashed, thunder roared, and the dense runes on the peach wood sword kept moving under the cover of lightning, connecting with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and thunder kept interweaving in the air.

Wu Song hid the power of the pregnant god here, waiting for this group of Taoists.

The sixth level of Sun Travel Realm, he is a master no matter where he is.

At least this group of Taoists only travel at night.

The rage of Acalanatha instantly enveloped the sky, resisting the arrival of thunder.

In an instant, Lei Heng, the "Winged Tiger" among the Eighteen Tiger Warriors, seemed to have wings grown from his ribs. With the addition of Wu Song's talent, he leaped from the ordinary Tiangang strength to the level of the Five Tigers.

"die!"

The steel knife in his hand pierced through the Taoists who were at a very low level of physical realm. In just a few breaths, the ground was littered with corpses.

Guan Sheng's face was filled with horror, and he barely fended off the joint attack of the Huben soldiers. Then Wu Song chopped off the weapon in his hand with a sword, and knocked the sword handle to the ground.

When Hao Siwen, the "Jing Mu'an", saw that his elder brother was captured, he no longer had the will to fight. He hastily put down his weapons and led the remaining cavalry to surrender:
"My dear men, please do not harm my elder brother's life. We are willing to surrender."

"Caught!"

Wu Song turned his head and glanced at the other side of the Yellow River. According to the plan, the auxiliary troops should be arriving soon.

Their three thousand infantrymen do not have the energy to capture prisoners.

Sure enough, with the artillery bombardment of the camp as a signal, "Double-Gun General" Dong Ping led the Dongping Prefecture's garrison troops to attack the north bank of the Yellow River.

Although Dong Ping had some fighting ability and was known as "one charge straight", which means he always charged, and was the first brave general in Liangshanpo who was used to charging into the front line, he had just joined the Liangshanpo and had soldiers under his command.

In Wu Song's opinion, they were no stronger than the officers and soldiers, and were even three points weaker.

With this level of combat power, they can only clean up a battlefield.

These three thousand infantrymen were not completely exhausted, and there was another five thousand troops led by Li Cheng from Daming Prefecture next to them. Although Wu Song looked down on them, he would not be careless.

He immediately led his troops to attack, but when he arrived at the camp, he found it empty, apparently they had retreated back to Daming Prefecture.
