Chapter 318: A Crushing Victory

Now that Li Zengbo has been forced to compromise, Shi Bin's attitude is of course no longer so tough, so he doesn't have to be told that he has to be unforgiving. The previous two days were a little unhappy, Shi Bin understood that Li Zengbo didn't want to see him again for the time being, so he used the excuse of going out of the city to rectify military affairs, and after a few days, he would wait for the arrival of the soldiers and horses on Jinghu South Road to discuss the specific dispatch of troops with Li Zengbo. Hearing Shi Bin's words, how could Li Zengbo, who was full of anger and had nowhere to vent, not agree to him leaving? Of course, he agreed very much, and ordered the scholar to send him out of the house.

After that, Shi Bin was smiling all the way, and Li Zengbo's study was a mess.

Soon returned to the military camp outside Ezhou City, and the two brothers Sai Zilong and Sai Zhangfei and Lu Wenfu and Lu Wenxin immediately surrounded Shi Bin to inquire about the situation.

Knowing that the four of them were here to inquire about the negotiation between himself and Li Zengbo, Shi Bin had already prepared a draft in his heart, just waiting for them to ask. Shi Bin just begged Sai Zilong and Sai Zhangfei not to say anything, so that the two brothers of the Lu family would know their true purpose.

The first one to rush over was Sai Zilong, the spy leader who was the most proficient in pretending, and asked anxiously: "My lord, how did Li Zengbo talk with you?" You didn't agree to his unreasonable demands, did you? ”

Shi Bin said: "Of course I didn't agree to it all, but..." Then he sighed and said: "He, Li Zengbo, is also a feudal official, how can I not take his opinion into account at all. Now Kang Yuan still has to work with one heart and one mind, so he still compromised. ”

"Compromised, what does it mean to compromise?" Lu Wenfu asked loudly.

Smiling at Lu Wenfu slightly, Shi Bin said, "Lu Wenfu, Lu Wenxin, you two don't have to worry. Since I promised your eldest brother that I would return you after this battle, I will definitely not break my promise. And it will make you make some credit, the so-called compromise, but I will suffer a little bit myself. ”

Lu Wenfu and Lu Wenxin were greatly relieved after listening to Shi Bin's words, but they also felt a little guilty in their hearts. Shi Bin is not related to them, but has some intersections with their eldest brother, so it is really rare to be willing to sacrifice himself for others. Therefore, after thinking of this, they immediately said that they would resolutely obey Shi Bin's orders when fighting.

Seeing the reaction of the Lu family brothers, Shi Bin understood that they were confused, but Shi Bin did not feel guilty, because the Lu family brothers did not suffer. This is not only beneficial to Kang Yuan, but also will not let himself break his word, and continued: "The brothers of the Lu family don't have to worry about it, I don't have to sacrifice many benefits, I just lent Sai Zilong and Sai Zhangfei to him Li Zengbo for three years, and I still have to pay it back after three years." ”

Sai Zilong and Sai Zhangfei pretended to be angry, and Wei Shibin was too weak to sacrifice them. Shi Bin patiently 'comforted' for a long time, and the two of them were relieved.

Soon after, they began to discuss how the five of them could cooperate with Li Zengbo in the battle.

"Master Shi, I think that if you want that Li Zengbo to fight in the front, that guy is so vicious, you must make him suffer a little." Lu Wenfu gritted his teeth and said.

"Yes, it has to be." Lu Wenxin and Sai Zhangfei immediately seconded. Sai Zilong was silent.

"Zilong, why don't you make a sound? Is there any disagreement? Shi Bin asked.

"It's not. I agree with the three of them, but I am apprehensive. ”

"Worried, why are you worried?" Shi Bin was puzzled and immediately asked.

"Li Zengbo has been stationed on Jinghu North Road for more than a year, and the soldiers who are familiar with this place are indeed suitable for fighting in the front, but I think the three generals seem to be upset..."

At this point, everyone understood the meaning of Sai Zilong's words. is afraid that the three of them will take public weapons to report personal grievances, but when they see Li Zengbo in danger, they deliberately do not rescue him, and let him fend for himself.

"Don't worry about this, I will lead an army to take it behind, and I also believe that the three of them are not narrow-minded people who waste the public for personal reasons." Shi Bin said as he looked at Lu Wenfu, Lu Wenxin and Sai Zhangfei.

With Shi Bin, the strict black spear commander of the army, staring at the back, the three of them wanted to see death and couldn't save it, so they had to express their affirmation to resist the Yuan with all their might.

"Another question is, what if Li Zengbo refuses to fight in the front line, is timid and afraid of death, and is only willing to stay in the Chinese army or even sit in Xiangyang? After all, Lord Shi, you are the commander of the army. Lu Wenfu asked anxiously.

"Lord Lu is worried, but Li Zengbo has always been active in resisting the Yuan, and now that there are reinforcements, he should not be able to sit in Xiangyang. As for staying in the Chinese army for fear of death,

As long as he knows that I am supporting in the back, he will obediently obey. Shi Bin smiled confidently.

After hearing this, Lu Wenfu and the four of them nodded yes one after another, and said that they were sent by Shi Bin. Since this is the case, Shi Bin immediately said the plan: the front army is Li Zengbo, the middle army is he Shi Bin, the left and right armies are the Lu family brothers, and the rear army is the two Sai family brothers.

This battle is naturally invulnerable, as long as you wait for the arrival of Jingnan soldiers and horses to talk to Li Zengbo again, everything can be executed.

Ten days later, Li Chao came to Ezhou with 5,000 elite soldiers, handed over to Shi Bin, and immediately returned to Jinghu South Road to preside over major events. Shi Bin, who received the soldiers and horses, entered Ezhou City that night and talked with Li Zengbo about the specific matters of marching and fighting.

Seeing Shi Bin's evil spirit, Li Zengbo felt uneasy, but he still pretended to be happy and enthusiastically asked about the reinforcements.

Shi Bin naturally said it truthfully.

Hearing this, Li Zengbo was overjoyed. In his opinion, the Lu family army can compete with the Yuan people, and Shi Bin's soldiers and horses can defeat the strong with the weak against the Shangyuan people. Now that the two add up to 10,000 elite soldiers, why worry about the Yuan people not breaking? Even if you can't win, you can stand by and never lose.

As a result, there was no need for Shi Bin to provoke generals, and Li Zengbo, a civilian official who did not know how to march and fight at all, proposed to fight the front by himself and open the way for the whole army, as long as Shi Bin and others protected his flanks and retreat.

This is a result that makes Shi Bin happy and worried, happy that Li Zengbo is not afraid to fight, and worrying that he doesn't seem to realize the difficulty of the Yuan people. I'm afraid I don't know the huge difference between field battles and city defense battles, but Shi Bin will not come out to be a good person to admonish Li Zengbo at this time.

All he had to do was to protect the people of the Great Song Dynasty from being slaughtered by the Yuan people, and he didn't bother to pay attention to the rest. In his opinion, it is glorious to be a soldier's horse leather shroud, as long as he does not see death and does not save it. So he immediately agreed with Li Zengbo's opinion, and agreed to rush to Nanyang to defend against the enemy when the grain and grass were ready.

Along the way, before arriving in Yangyang, they took the waterway, went north along the Han River, and only took the land route when they arrived at Yangyang City. There are 50,000 horses and horses, and you can't see the end at a glance.

Because he was not tired of walking by water, Li Zengbo only repaired outside Xiangyang City for one day and immediately drove to Nanyang with 20,000 former troops, without waiting for Shi Bin and them. Because he wanted to get to Nanyang quickly, he marched extremely fast, reaching 100 miles a day, but the scout only inquired about the news within a radius of 20 miles.

Li Zengbo's lieutenant reminded him many times to march slowly, so that the soldiers could conserve their strength to meet the battle at any time, but Li Zengbo thought that the Nanyang Basin was flat and the Yuan people would not ambush here, so he did not adopt this opinion and still insisted on going his own way.

When Li Zengbo's army was still nearly two hundred miles away from Nanyang, it was already exhausted and did not have much combat power, and that night the Yuan people attacked quickly, although they did not annihilate Li Zengbo, but they severely damaged him, so that his 20,000 horses were beaten to only 8,000, of which there were many wounded, and only 6,000 people could really fight.

Shi Bin, who was hundreds of miles away, heard the news and scolded Li Zengbo for being a stupid pig, but he did not immediately send troops to rescue, but asked carefully about what happened.

Seeing that the post guard said in detail, Shi Bin knew that this was not fake news, and Li Zengbo's stupid pig was indeed attacked. Salvation is definitely to be saved, but how to save it?

The battle was like this, Shi Bin hated Li Zengbo to death, but he also blamed himself a little for not keeping up with the stupid pig quickly. The Yuan people must know that he is following behind, if they ignore the rest to save Li Zengbo, they will be sent to death, maybe the Yuan cavalry will be ambushed not far away and waiting for him to enter the trap.

After thinking about it, Shi Bin planned to use the trick of luring the enemy, using the person he hated as bait to lure them out to kill the enemy and break the siege.

Therefore, he ordered himself and Sai Zilong to lead 5,000 firearms elite soldiers to fully support Li Zengbo in front, and Lu Wenfu and the other three led the remaining 25,000 men and horses to protect the back road and grain and grass baggage, but the two teams kept a one-day distance, so that the Yuan people thought that they could attack.

After walking like this for a day, it was only a day's journey from Li Zengbo, but Yuanren did not attack, and Shi Bin knew that he had miscalculated. Most of the Yuan people planned to annihilate Li Zengbo first and then take care of the others, rather than just suffering heavy losses to each of them.

Secretly sighed that the Yuan people were powerful, and there were still 1,000 infantry cavalry among his 5,000 firearms soldiers, which could be quickly supported, but Shi Bin was very reluctant to use them to save Li Zengbo's stupid pig. If he encounters an ambush by the Yuan people halfway, he will lose a lot.

After thinking about it again, he painfully ordered Sai Zilong to lead a thousand cavalry to support Li Zengbo, and if he encountered an ambush, he was not allowed to fight head-on, only harassed, so that the Yuan people could not attack Li Zengbo with all their might. If there is no ambush, it will be not

Under Li Zengbo, he was stationed with him for help.

As Shi Bin expected, the light cavalry of the Yuan people soon came out to intercept the infantry cavalry led by Sai Zilong. Fortunately, he had received an order not to engage head-on, and he withdrew without a fight, and Zilong and the Yuan people started a guerrilla attack.

Soon, Lu Wenfu's 25,000 men also came up to rescue Li Zengbo.

Although it was certain that Li Zengbo would not be completely annihilated, Shi Bin was furious, and he had never fought such a humiliating battle. I'm really not afraid of god-like opponents, but I'm afraid of pig-like teammates.

When the anger was almost gone, Shi Bin immediately ordered: the Nanyang guard will send 5,000 elite soldiers out of the city to intercept the Yuan people's retreat to Pingdingshan; The Lu brothers led 10,000 men and horses to block the Suizhou corridor to prevent the Yuan people from escaping into the Hubei Basin; Sai Zhangfei led an army of 10,000 men and horses to block the way of the Yuan people to Zhumadian, and he himself led 9,000 men and horses to search for the Yuan people in the Nanyang Basin; As for Li Zengbo, he ignored it, because Li Zengbo was useless at this time.

The generals who received the order knew that Shi Bin was going to fight to the death with the Yuan people, and he would not give up until he was completely annihilated in Nanyang.

If almost all the generals would oppose Shi Bin in the past, Nanyang would only have 7,000 men and horses, and 5,000 elite soldiers would be transferred out of the city, so Nanyang would be too dangerous. If you are not careful, Nanyang City will fall into the hands of the Yuan people again.

But at this time, people, including the Nanyang guards, could only obey the order, and did not dare to have the slightest doubt, because they all understood that this was Shi Bin fighting for his own honor, and if he was defeated in this battle, his reputation as a 'victorious general' would be gone. If this honor is really gone, they can't afford Shi Bin's anger, not to mention that they will definitely not be able to do it.

Such a style of play was not expected by the Yuan people, they were good at surprise rather than stumbling, so they ran around in Nanyang at the beginning.

It turned out that all the passages were blocked, and although the Song army must have suffered a lot of casualties in such a fight, they would definitely not escape the doom of the entire army. In this way, Yuan Ren himself panicked and only planned to run quickly, and Li Zengbo's threat was naturally resolved.

Escaping must be fleeing to the north, Nanyang's 5,000 elite soldiers are the biggest resistance, and the Yuan people must slip away before Shi Bin's men can encircle them, so the attack on Nanyang's army is regardless of casualties, just trying to kill a bloody way home.

Nanyang was originally taken back by Shi Bin from the Yuan people, and the Nanyang guards admired Shi Bin very much, and now it is related to Shi Bin's honor, so he struggled to resist, and the Song army exerted unprecedented combat effectiveness, and simply blocked the five thousand cavalry of the Yuan people, so that they could not advance an inch.

In the end, the Yuan people naturally did not escape Shi Bin's encirclement and were annihilated, but Shi Bin did not have the joy of the victor at all. Because this victory is really not worth boasting about, it took nearly 30,000 men and horses to annihilate 5,000 people, and his own 5,000 elites also lost nearly 2,000 people, which was a great shame in his opinion.

On the way to pick up Li Zengbo, Shi Bin lost sleep for two consecutive nights, not only because of this tragic victory, but also because he lost his trust, such a way of playing made the smoke in Nanyang everywhere, and the people of Li suffered countless casualties, it was better to wait for the Yuan people to take the initiative to attack or rob him of food.

But the big mistake has been made, and Shi Bin can only comfort himself with 'annihilating 5,000 yuan people', which can be regarded as making himself comfortable.

Soon he saw Li Zengbo, and the bastard obviously knew that Shi Bin was angry, and it was himself who was wrong, so he immediately coaxed Shi Bin like honey on his mouth.

Originally, Shi Bin didn't want to make Li Zengbo lose face too much, but seeing him behaving like this, and remembering his rudeness to himself before, Shi Bin gave him a greeting: a ruthless five-finger mountain. Then he roared, "You stupid pig, why are you so useless? Most of the 20,000 horses were lost by you in one night! ”

Seeing the furious Shi Bin, Li Zengbo no longer had the courage to resist, and could only repeatedly say that he was eager to rescue Nanyang, but he didn't expect that the Yuan army besieging Nanyang would split most of them to attack him. Then he praised Shi Bin and emphasized that although the loss was not small, it was still a victory after all, and the results were brilliant.

I just wanted to slap Li Zengbo once, but when I heard him dare to say 'brilliant results', I didn't care about anything else, and I didn't care about anything else, so I pushed him to the ground and practiced the 'Seven Wounds Boxing'.

Although the onlookers were very pitiful, Li Zengbo was beaten by Shi Bin, after all, he was also a pacification envoy of Jinghu North Road, a high-ranking official. But no one came out to dissuade him, because of such a tragic victory, he still dared to say that he had 'brilliant results', and he really deserved to be beaten.

In the end, it was Sai Zilong, the spy leader with the most special relationship with Shi Bin, who came out to stop Shi Bin, but Li Zengbo had already been beaten to the ground. ()
