After winning the crucial battle against the Tatar tribe, Shen Xi was only a stone's throw away from the capital at this time, but what he had to face at present was not only the thousands of soldiers and horses sent by the Tatar division from Beijing to prepare to attack in the Juyong Pass, but also the Tatar Khan around the capital and the more than 100,000 troops of the steppe tribes.

Shen Xigang led a large group of men and horses along the post road to the pass, and Long Qingwei commanded Li Pin to personally greet him. When Li Pin saw Shen Xi when he went out of the customs before, although he was extremely respectful, he still maintained a minimum of reserve, but this time when he saw Shen Xi, he simply knelt down on one knee to greet him.

Li Pin lowered his eyebrows and said, "The last general, Li Pin, see Shen Zhongcheng!" ”

The pass of Juyong Pass is narrow, at this time Shen Xi's troops and horses are constantly entering the pass, and there are no soldiers pausing at the pass, Shen Xi feels that he is a little in the way of staying here, and he waved his hand and said: "Get up, let's go to the city to talk!" ”

After Li Pin got up, he respectfully made a gesture of please: "Shen Zhongcheng, please!" ”

Before, Shen Xi was only the governor of Yansui who passed through Juyongguan, and there was no subordinate relationship between them, so although there was a difference between civil and military and rank, but the personality was equal. Now that the Tatars have invaded the Beijing Division, as the largest official position in King Qin's soldiers and horses, Shen Xi has already formed a subordinate relationship with Li Pin, so Li Pin will let go of all his dignity, and his respect for Shen Xi is simply beyond measure.

“…… Lord Shen fought a succession, causing tens of thousands of Tatar soldiers and horses to sink in the land of Xuanfu, which is really the Optimus Jade Pillar of the Ming Dynasty, and the last general can serve under your command, which is the luck of the last general! ”

Li Pin said as he led the way in front, leading Shen Xi to the north of Juyong Pass, and the great rivers and mountains outside Juyong Pass suddenly came into view.

Shen Xi raised the telescope sent by his guards and looked to the northwest, there were still traces of war and gunsmoke in the Yulinbao area more than ten miles away, and the corpses of Tatars who had lost their heads were everywhere.

Shen Xi put down the binoculars, handed them to Yun Liu beside him, and sighed slightly: "The thieves are still raging in the Gyeonggi region, and the official is worried!" ”

Li Pin complimented: "Shen Zhongcheng is a model for the country and the people!" ”

As he spoke, Li Pin kept wiping the cold sweat oozing from his forehead, Shen Xi squinted at him, only to see that Li Pin's forehead was sweating like beads, and he asked puzzledly: "The weather is so cold, why is General Li sweating profusely?" ”

Li Pin's face was bitter, and he thought: "Lord Shen led the troops to fight a decisive battle with the Yi Bu Division, I am afraid that I will be burned and burned, so that the defenders of Juyong Pass will not be able to cross the Lei Chi step, so that Lord Shen will put himself in danger, fortunately, Lord Shen is auspicious, this battle is actually won, if Lord Shen investigates, I am afraid that the commander of the guard will come to an end!" I hope that Lord Shen has a lot! ”

Li Pin smiled bitterly: "The last general learned that Lord Shen had succeeded in the first battle, and his heart was surging, this bead of sweat ...... Unconsciously, it came out. ”

Shen Xi nodded: "General Li is loyal, it is commendable, there are still reinforcements sent by General Li under the command of this official, and this official would like to thank General Li for his trust!" ”

As he spoke, Shen Xi patted Li Pin on the shoulder, which scared Li Pin so much that he couldn't stand on his feet, and hurriedly said: "Whatever Lord Zhongcheng said, the general will just do his part!" ”

At this time, there was a "Yo he" in the distance, because the sound was loud, Li Pin, who had relaxed a little, was startled, his body was agitated, and he took a step back, only to see a big man carrying a long-handled broadsword to the city, although there was a distance, but the sound just now seemed to be shouting in his ear.

Li Pinzheng was curious about who this was, so he heard the man say: "Senior brother, I killed all those Tartars that I could kill, and some that I couldn't kill, and I tied them up and escorted them into the city...... Brother, can I kill them? ”

Li Pin secretly wondered: "Who is this, he is so big, he looks mighty and majestic, but his words are honest and simple, listening to his words, it seems that he has a lot to do with Lord Shen?" ”

Shen Xi was a little surprised when he saw Li Pin, and casually introduced: "This is the general of Wang Lingzhi!" ”

Li Pin was stunned, where had he heard of Wang Lingzhi, but he knew each other, and quickly changed into a "famous name like thunder" demeanor, and said with emotion: "It turns out that this is General Wang, I have admired him for a long time!" Saying that, Li Pin stepped forward and wanted to hook up with Wang Lingzhi, but Wang Lingzhi took down the big knife unhappily and lay between the two.

Wang Lingzhi didn't like to get too close to strangers, his eyes were round, and the knife was facing Li Pin, as if to say, where did the birdman come from, so shameless?

Shen Xi shouted: "Don't be rude! This is the Juyong Pass, and this one in front of you is my Daming commander of Long Qingwei! ”

Wang Lingzhi then remembered that he was in someone else's land, put down the big knife embarrassedly, and nodded to Li Pin, which was regarded as a greeting.

In the previous bloody battle, Wang Lingzhi rushed to kill in front, and Lin Heng followed behind. Wang Ling is invincible, it is difficult for the Tatars to block his knife, basically a face was cut by him under the horse, the Tatars saw that there was such a peerless general in the Ming army, and the army was in chaos.

Wang Lingzhi led the horse team into the Tatar army, completely disrupted the Tatar formation, and finally cut down the banner of the Tartar department, and the Tatars were completely demoralized, Shen Xi led the main force to take the opportunity to cover up and kill, and finally achieved a hearty victory.

After this battle, the Tatars were also annihilated, and Shen Xi's soldiers and horses were beheaded only 3,000, and another 1,000 were taken prisoner, and the rest of the Tatars fled in all directions, basically losing the strength to fight again.

Li Pin looked embarrassed and didn't dare to get too close, for fear that the mighty General Wang would "miss" and chop him up. Wang Lingzhi strode to Shen Xi's side and said, "Lord Shen, do you think I can slaughter those traitors?" ”

With outsiders present, Wang Lingzhi learned wisely, and no longer had a senior brother or a younger brother, but called Shen Xi "Lord Shen". Shen Xi frowned and said: "Since he is a prisoner, then everything will be done according to the rules and handed over to the imperial court to deal with, how can this official call the shots without authorization?" Now that you have completed the errand assigned by the official and are waiting to receive the reward, you don't need to ask about the rest! ”

If someone else said this, one of the hundred Wang Ling would not be convinced, but this came from Shen Xi's mouth, then the situation would be different. Wang Lingzhi smiled freely: "Lord Shen will do whatever he says, this General Li, I was reckless and rude before, and I will make amends to you here." Next, I still have military affairs to deal with, so I will retire first. Lord Shen, I'm going! ”

Shen Xi shook his head, looked at Wang Lingzhi's back, and waited until the head of the city under Wang Ling entered the cavalry team and went away, then he withdrew his gaze, and happened to meet Li Pin's eyes.

Li Pin hurriedly said: "Lord Zhongcheng, what are you going to do next...... Prepare how to use your troops, and finally obey the dispatch! ”

The corners of Shen Xi's mouth turned up slightly, and there was a faint hint of mockery: "General Li also said before that he would obey the dispatch of his own officer, but why did he ......?"

Li Pin thought to himself that it was finally here, how could Lord Shen not be held responsible? Quickly explained: "The last general is afraid...... Juyong Pass has lost, affecting the overall situation of the capital, and he did not dare to send troops to help! ”

Shen Xi said coldly: "Then General Li is not worried about the loss of the city fortress now?" ”

Li Pin swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said tremblingly: "Lord Zhongcheng has defeated the Tatar soldiers and horses outside the fortress, and the danger of Juyong Pass has been solved...... The last general is willing to serve as a small soldier under Lord Shen, don't dare to disobey! ”

This was said to the point, Shen Xi nodded: "It's not too late to make amends, this official learned that General Li refused to transfer troops before, thinking that General Li did not cooperate with the military deployment of this officer, but now I listen to General Li's meaning, I know that I have misunderstood!" ”

Li Pin began to wipe cold sweat again, secretly glad that fortunately, Yuanchang spoke tactfully, otherwise something would really have happened.

Shen Xi said again: "Now that the Beijing division is in danger, this official is going to take a break at Juyong Pass, and when the movement of the Tatar soldiers and horses is discovered, he will return to the Beijing division of King Qin." At that time, he will march to Beijing together with General Li's soldiers and horses, I wonder if General Li is willing to cooperate? ”

Li Pin thought that Shen Xi would first think about how to defeat the thousands of Tatar soldiers and horses outside the south entrance of Juyong Pass, but he didn't expect Shen Xi to directly open his mouth to lead the troops to the capital, which greatly exceeded his expectations, and asked in a snort: "Lord Shen, the Tatar soldiers and horses who are active on the front line of Changping ......"

Shen Xi smiled slightly: "Don't be afraid, General Li just needs to obey the dispatch of his own official and arrange for the dispatch of troops!" ”

Before, Li Pin swore that he would obey his words, but then he hesitated again, his feeling about Shen Xi's decision was that Shen Xi had just won a gamble, and he didn't bet with him, and now Shen Xi was ready to make a big bet, and it was a question whether he would follow or not.

Li Pin muttered in his heart: "There are hundreds of thousands of Tatar soldiers and horses around the Beijing Division, and the defenders in Juyong Pass, plus Shen Zhongcheng's department, are only in their early 20,000s. If I obey Shen Zhongcheng's dispatch, the whole army is wiped out, and Juyong Pass is lost, then I still have a family, don't I want to accompany the funeral? ”

Then he thought about it again, "Shen Zhongcheng has repeatedly turned decay into magic at critical moments, just say that in this battle of Tumubao, everyone thinks that he will die, but he is not only fine, but also comes back with soldiers and horses, if I don't obey the order, there will be big trouble now, maybe Shen Zhongcheng will do something to sacrifice the flag in Juyong Pass in order to stabilize the army's heart, he is the second-grade member of Sanyuan and the first, the head of Wenchen, I am just a hereditary general, how can I fight with him?" ”

In the end, Li Pin finally made up his mind, "Anyway, all this is Lord Shen's idea, I obey the order, Juyong Pass is at fault, that is Lord Shen's lack of scheduling, if he is defeated, it is not my responsibility, will the court investigate it?" I will obey Lord Shen's dispatch, and if I can get military exploits, maybe I can go down in history, this is my best opportunity to make contributions! ”

Thinking of this, Li Pin couldn't help but be excited.

A guard general in the Great Wall, originally had no chance to become famous, and was named a marquis, but now with Shen Xi, there is hope for the impossible, how can Li Pin not be moved?

"Although Lord Shen is young and vigorous, but the command of the battle is invincible, I only hope that this battle can let me follow the opposite Zhuang, this is the same as shaking the dice, as long as there is a leopard, a big victory, let me gain fame, I will not worry about my life, and even enjoy the glory and wealth for several lifetimes, how is it worth it!"

Li Pin is not only a general, but also a gambler, when he transferred troops and horses to Shen Xi, he had a game mentality, and he was half right.

Now there is still half of it, he naturally will not be stingy with chips, the more gamblers, the critical time is to want to be small and big, in this kind of gambler psychology prompted, he suddenly became full of confidence in Shen Xi's entry into the Beijing Division.
