Chapter 319: Eliminate Hidden Dangers

Now that Li Zengbo has been beaten and can't move, Shi Bin's anger can be regarded as clean. But without his order, no one dared to step forward to help Li Zengbo up, not to mention that Li Zengbo really deserved to die if he made such a big mistake, so all the soldiers just stood aside and watched.

Thinking back to the nearly 30,000 soldiers killed and wounded in this battle and the more than 10,000 soldiers who were directly killed by Li Zengbo, Shi Bin hated to cut Li Zengbo with a thousand knives, but reason told him that he was fighting hard enough now, and if he fought again, I was afraid that Li Zengbo would go to the underworld to see Lord Yama. If that is the case, not only will the plan to seize Jinghu North Road be ruined, but I am afraid that even the Sichuan Commander-in-Chief will not be able to keep it. So he had to finally order Xu Feng to find a doctor and take Li Zengbo into Nanyang City to heal.

Although it was a disastrous victory, the four Saizilong and the Nanyang guards were very happy, because the total annihilation of the 5,000 Yuan Army was indeed a brilliant result.

Li Zengbo was beaten only because he said the wrong thing at the wrong time and in the wrong place, if he was not so arrogant at the beginning, and he first admitted his mistake after the war, so the results were brilliant and Shi Bin's anger subsided and then mentioned it, he was afraid that he would not be so miserable.

After returning to Nanyang, although the anger had subsided, Shi Bin began to feel uneasy in his heart, and beat Li Zengbo in public for nothing else. Although Li Zengbo's power is not as good as his, he also has some foundations, and if he fights against him regardless of his losses, he may lose both.

Thinking of this, Shi Bin's first order was: to monitor Li Zengbo's subordinates with all his might, and monitor the whole city to prevent his subordinates from leaving the city.

No matter who this order means, everyone can understand what it means, Sai Zilong and Sai Zhangfei are closely related to Shi Bin's interests, and they will naturally implement it with all their might, Lu Wenfu and Lu Wenxin have just received such a big benefit from Shi Bin, and they will naturally implement it with all their might, and the Nanyang Shou General knows that Shi Bin will help him ask for credit, so he also turns a blind eye.

This led to the five groups of subordinates sent by Li Zengbo to Lin'an to complain were all hijacked and pressed back. Seeing the five letters in his hand, Shi Bin was furious, and scolded Li Zengbo for being insidious, and he dared to pretend to be sick and shoot a black gun, if he hadn't been prepared, I was afraid that he would have really been stabbed by him.

The matter has happened, Shi Bin knows that he has to find a solution as soon as possible, a long delay is not the way, Sai Zilong and the others can rest assured, and Lu Wenfu and the others can also rest assured, he is afraid that Nanyang Shou will be bribed by Li Zengbo to confront him and help Li Zengbo testify.

Xu Feng, who was standing on guard, knew what Shi Bin was worried about, and said, "Are you worried that things will change and make Li Zengbo yin?" ”

"This is natural, after all, I beat Li Zengbo in public, and they saw so many people present at that time. I absolutely trust you and the two brothers of the Sai family, but if I don't stop the mouths of the others and Li Zengbo earlier, I'm afraid my life will be difficult. Shi Bin sighed slightly.

"Your Excellency, will you listen to me?" Xu Feng said solemnly.

"Say it."

"The key to this matter is that Li Zengbo is not on Lu Wenfu, Lu Wenxin and Nanyang Guard, so we should focus on Li Zengbo. As for Lu Wenfu, the three adults just need to give them a reassuring pill. Xu Feng said confidently.

"Reassurance?" Shi Bin muttered, "You mean to give them the credit this morning and let them rest assured?" ”

"Yes. With the credit in hand, they have no reason to go against an adult for an inconsequential Li Zengbo, and may even speak for an adult. It's just..."

"Just what? It's just you and me, but it's okay. Shi Bin urged.

"Please don't be rash, please act calmly and low-key."

It turned out that Xu Feng was afraid that he was not calm enough and would ruin the big thing. Shi Bin looked at Xu Feng with an appreciative smile and said, "Thank you for the reminder, okay, you can invite the five of them to me quickly." And reminded Sai Zilong to be careful when he spoke. ”

Sai Zilong and the five of them soon arrived in Shi Bin's room, although they all expected what Shi Bin asked them to do, but they didn't know what to do, so except for Sai Zilong and Sai Zhangfei, the other three were a little nervous.

After motioning for the five people to sit down, Shi Bin said with a smile: "For this morning's incident, Shi Bin is here to apologize to several adults. ”

After hearing this, the five people immediately stood up again and said that Shi Bin was not wrong, it was Li Zengbo who deserved to die, the beating was light, and it was he who was lucky to meet such a 'benevolent' Shangguan as Shi Bin.

Shi Bin naturally didn't believe these nonsense, and he didn't bother to talk nonsense, so he came straight to the point: "Everyone, I just received five letters, please take a look at them together." Then he motioned to Xu Feng to take out Li Zengbo's five letters.

composed

These twists and turns were all intercepted by Sai Zilong, an experienced spy leader, and no one else knew the content, so they obeyed Shi Bin's order and watched it without knowing it.

Although the words of several letters are different, the meaning is the same, and they are all complaints to the Sect. said that Shi Bin fought unfavorably and caused heavy losses, but he was angry with him and injured him without introspection, and he was a traitor who ignored the arrogance and arrogance of the court.

Seeing these Sai Zhang Fei was furious, he slapped the coffee table in his hand with one palm, and scolded Li Zengbo for being extremely shameless. Lu Wenfu, Lu Wenxin and the Nanyang guards also looked bad, obviously despising Li Zengbo for reversing black and white.

"Commander Sai doesn't need to be angry, I summoned you here to discuss a solution, not to get angry. I will not ruin the hard work of everyone because of my personal grudge with Li Zengbo. Shi Bin said with great certainty.

"What do you think?" Sai Zilong took the opportunity to lead the matter to the track that he and Shi Bin had agreed on in advance.

"What I mean is that Li Zengbo did not have any merit in this battle, so this official intends not to write his name in the credit book to the imperial court. Although I am the main general, I have made some mistakes and caused a lot of losses, so there is no need to have them, but the names of the five of you are not missing. ”

With such a simple sentence, there was a sound of needles falling in the room, and everyone was surprised by Shi Bin's attitude. It is normal for Li Zengbo to have no military merits, but it is very wrong for him, Shi Bin, the main general, not to receive the merits, and he can't say anything about it.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I know your opinion, I asked myself about the improper use of people in this battle, although the victory was a disastrous victory, and I am already guilty, so I don't deserve credit. As for you, I think the Nanyang Guard should be the first to be listed, and the other four are all the same, right? ”

This arrangement was of course the most suitable, so everyone was very happy and said that they were obedient to Shi Bin.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Shi Bin spoke: "What do you think about my beating of Li Zengbo before? ”

"I think it's time to fight, it's still light to hit him!" Sai Zhang Fei shouted.

"What about you?" Shi Bin asked.

The Lu family brothers and the Nanyang guards both seconded the race to Zhang Fei, but Sai Zilong was silent.

"Zilong, what is your opinion?" Shi Bin said with a smile.

"Zilong didn't see the adult beating Li Zengbo, his injury was suffered during the fight with the Yuan soldiers, not the adult. It's all slander, and we want justice for adults! Sai Zilong said 'righteous and stern'.

Okay, so I'm waiting here. At this time, the other four people understood what Shi Bin meant, and they all said that Li Zengbo's injury was suffered from the fight with the Yuan people, and the battle was also defeated by himself, and all the things on the fold were slander.

Shi Bin was very happy to see such a result, at least he didn't have to worry about this aspect, but he couldn't say the sentence 'thank you for your support', so he froze for a while. Seeing this, Sai Zilong came out in time to relieve the siege, and said: "My family is too tired for this matter, and now I am very happy to have everyone's promise, and I thank you on behalf of everyone." Let's help the adults to rest first, and everyone can do their own thing. ”

This kind of trick has been understood by people in officialdom for a long time, so they immediately turned their backs and left.

Everyone had already left, and Shi Bin had no burden, and said to Xu Feng and Sai Zilong with a smile: "Xu Feng, Zilong, thank you two today." ”

After hearing this, the two said that they didn't dare, and only said that this was what they should do. Shi Bin was too lazy to be polite to them, and after taking a sip of tea, Shi Bin said again: "Now that the problem between the Lu family brothers and the Nanyang guards has been solved, what should you do if you say Li Zengbo is a bastard?" ”

"My lord, now that everyone has supported you, don't be afraid of him. But it's better to keep him from opening his mouth, so that nothing goes wrong. Xu Feng said immediately.

Shi Bin and Sai Zilong both nodded in agreement. Because the Lu family brothers and the Nanyang guards are only on their side because of their current interests, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not bring up the old matter again and threaten each other if there is a dispute in the future, so the best way is to let Li Zengbo himself shut up willingly, and only if the parties do not speak, this is invulnerable.

"That's true, so how can you keep him from talking? After all, he is also a pacifying envoy all the way, although he doesn't dare to fight me head-on, but he still dares to shoot black guns with dark arrows. Sai Zilong groaned.

"That's true, hey, blame me for not injuring him on the spur of the moment and causing such an embarrassing situation." Shi Bin sighed.

"You don't have to blame yourself, everyone knows what you're thinking. You love soldiers like sons, it's because those soldiers who died unjustly beat Li Zengbo, that shameless guy, don't blame adults. Xu Feng immediately came out to be relieved.

"Thank you, but I'm really still too impulsive, just take a copy of his last excerpt, you shouldn't hit him, leave a truth."

While Shi Bin and Xu Feng were talking about these inconsequential little things, Sai Zilong said: "My lord, I have a way to do it, but I still have to ask the adult to come out." ”

"Zilong said quickly."

"It's simple, just ask the adults to write an excerpt of Li Zengbo, and ask me and Lu Wende to sign and second. Take a few of us and the editor to Li Zengbo's for a walk, and let him realize that he has no hope of hurting you in this matter. And you better show him that you will not hold him accountable for his defeat, and only ask the two sides to eliminate the fighting, so that you don't need to be on guard as long as you pay a little attention to him. ”

Of course, this is a good strategy, Shi Bin immediately agreed. That night, Shi Bin invited five people to a dinner party, and under coercion and inducement, the two brothers of the Lu family and the Nanyang guard, who did not want to second, signed the fold and agreed to go to Li Zengbo's place to 'visit' him the next day.

The next day, Shi Bin took five generals, five letters to him, and a letter to Li Zengbo's current place where he was recuperating.

Seeing that Shi Bin was coming, the guards didn't dare to stop him, so they could only lead him and Sai Zilong to Li Zengbo's room.

was going to reprimand the guards for being rude and bringing people in without his consent, but when he found that it was Shi Bin, Li Zengbo immediately closed his mouth, but his face was flushed, and he was obviously angry, but he didn't dare to attack.

"How is Lord Li? The Yuan people are so hateful that they actually hurt you so badly! Damn it, damn it, the next time the warring officer will never let them live! Shi Bin said angrily.

Yuan people hurt him so badly? After hearing this, Li Zengbo finally couldn't bear it anymore, pointed at Shi Bin and shouted: "Shi Bin, you bastard!" It's clear that you hit me, how can I have the face to say that it was hit by Yuanren? ”

"Yes, Master Li is saying that I am reversing black and white? Then please take a look at this! As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Bin took out the five letters from his sleeve and slammed them on Li Zengbo's face.

Seeing these five letters, Li Zengbo, who knew that the matter was exposed, trembled all over, for fear that the person in front of him would do something to him, after all, this is also a murderous guy.

At this time, Sai Zilong led everyone to condemn Li Zengbolai, saying that he was so shameless that he actually reversed black and white, obviously it was the Yuan people who injured him, but he actually said that it was Shi Bin who injured him; Obviously, he took action without authorization and lost the battle, but Shi Bin saved the defeat but said that Shi Bin's command was unfavorable, and Sai Zhang Fei, who was easily impulsive, actually rushed up and gave Li Zengbo two punches.

Seeing that this was the case, he understood that the Lu family brothers and the Nanyang guard had been bought by Shi Bin, and for the time being, he couldn't do anything to Shi Bin, so he could only endure it in order to retaliate in the future. And Shi Bin quickly pushed away Sai Zhang Fei, and reprimanded everyone to go out of the room and not to come in again.

"Master Li, Shi knows that you hate me to the bone, and what he wants at this time is to endure it and take revenge in the future. But..." Shi Bin shook his head.

How could the treacherous and cunning Li Zengbo admit this, and immediately said in a 'panic': "The mistakes committed by the lower officials are indeed irreparable, and Lord Shi beating me is already light, how dare I hold a grudge?" ”

"Good, good. Master Li is really open-minded and knowledgeable. Then I won't fold this letter and submit it. As he spoke, Shi Bin took out the last letter and handed it to Li Zengbo.

However, after browsing the letter that Shi Bin took out, Li Zengbo was desperate, he knew that if Shi Bin presented this letter to Li Zong, he would not be able to tell if he had 10,000 mouths, not to mention that it was his fault. At that time, the demotion will still be light, and if someone takes the opportunity to slander him, I am afraid that he will have to be sent to the army.

Li Zengbo's appearance let Shi Bin know that his first step had been achieved, and then he said: "Lord Li, please rest assured, Shi is not an unreasonable person, as long as Lord Li does not talk nonsense, Shi guarantees that this letter will never come to the emperor, and I will not pursue your defeat." ”

Li Zengbo asked himself that the defeat and slander of Shi Bin add up to a lot of things, so although Shi Bin said that he didn't care, he was still not at ease, and still asked worriedly: "Lord Shi really doesn't care about the wrong things I did before?" ”

"Hehe," Shi Bin smiled: "Lord Li, when did I, Shi Bin, break my word?" Of course, the premise of this is that you will no longer harm me, and truly fight with me with one heart and one mind. If you have a bad heart again, it won't be as simple as a letter. ”

After speaking, Shi Bin took out his dagger and slashed at the corner of the bedside table, and the corner of the cabinet fell in response. When Li Zengbo was still stunned to look at the dagger, Shi Bin threw the dagger in front of Li Zengbo and said, "Lord Li, this dagger is made of stainless steel, and the iron is sharpened like clay, so I will give it to you for self-defense." ”

"Thank you, Lord Shi." Knowing that this was Shi Bin's warning, Li Zengbo immediately expressed his attitude, "The lower officials must fight against the Yuan soldiers with one heart and one mind with the adults." ”
