Chapter 359 Laughing at Fusang's great gift

"Master, the grain and forage we have seized this time are really too rich, the Fusang people are still very well prepared for this invasion of Daqi, the grain in Laizhou alone is a million quintals, if it is estimated that the number of 200,000 troops invested by Fusang this time, this million quintals of military food is enough for these 200,000 people to eat for a year and a half." Yunshi was quite surprised by the amount of grain stored in the Fusang grain depot in Laizhou City.

"The grain depot and forage yard are guarded by troops, and the grain and grass inside are not allowed to be used at will except for the daily needs of soldiers and war horses. It is more appropriate to leave these seizures to the King of Chu to come over and dispose of them. Li Bin instructed his disciples to say, the factional strife in the Great Qi court is not stopping, and now it is in a sensitive period of competition for the throne, and I don't know how many people in the court are opening their eyes wide to find the flaws and mistakes of Qi Xing, the king of Chu. As an important assistant to King Qi Xing of Chu, and the only good brother of King Qi Xing of Chu, Li Bin will of course be more cautious and help King Qi Xing of Chu at this time. will never let the political enemies of Qi Xing in the court take advantage of the opportunity to pour dirty water on Qi Xing, the king of Chu, and buckle his hat.

"Obey the teacher's orders." The cloud lion answered the order.

"Yunshi, you work hard again, bring the news of the division to the king of Chu, and say that the stronghold of Fusang landing has been captured, and let the king of Chu lead the army to take over and guard the town." Li Bin instructed his disciples.

"Hehe, it's not hard, with the Spiral Nine Shadows light skills taught by the master, it's a very easy thing to go wherever you go." Cloud Lion smiled a little cutely.

Just when Yunshi rushed to Dengfeng City, two Fusang warships appeared on the ocean of the berth, and there was no need for the soldiers who were on alert and watchful to report, and Li Bin, who was wandering around the berth, also found these two rushing towards him for the first time. Trying to plot against the Fuso warship.

However, Li Bin was not in a hurry to clean up these two Fusang warships that did not know the height of the sky and were bold. Patiently wait for the two Fusang warships to approach the ten-mile range of the berth before making a move, anyway, in Li Bin's eyes. These two Fuso warships came to give themselves great gifts. It's completely the fish on your own board, and you can cut it whenever you want.

Just after the two attacking Fusang warships sailed within five miles of the mooring, Li Bin made a move. Flying towards the nearest Fusang warship, in the midst of the exclamations and shouts of Fusang soldiers on the boat, Li Bin suddenly boarded the ship, and successively attacked with lightning speed, and in just two or three minutes, he had already restrained all the 100 or so people of the entire warship with fingering.

In the course of the operation, Li Bin found a lot of fire oil and arrows dipped in fire oil in many cabins of the warship. Li Bin saw these large number of arson essential items on the Fusang warship, and had already guessed the purpose and intention of the two Fusang warships to return from this adventure.

It is very likely that the two Fusang warships that forcibly returned were ordered to burn the eight Fusang warships that were captured by Li Bin and stayed on the ground.

Just two or three minutes after Li Bin's move, another Fusang warship had quickly moved forward to overtake Li Bin's warship, getting closer and closer to the mooring, and many Fusang soldiers on the warship also ignited rockets, bent their bows and arrows to aim at the warships staying on the mooring.

How could Li Bin let the enemy succeed, and three minutes later, the last incoming Fusang warship was also controlled by Li Bin.

Return to the berth. Li Bin mobilized 200 Qi soldiers to board a warship, escorted the Fusang sailors on the warship, and drove to take over the two newly captured Fusang warships.

After some tossing, the two Fusang warships captured by Li Bin also slowly sailed into the berth and docked under the escort of the Qi soldiers. The addition of two newly captured warships increased the size of the captured Fuso warship fleet to ten.

Nearly 1,000 sailors on ten Fusang warships were bound by ropes and escorted by Qi soldiers. They were escorted ashore and put together in custody.

After the Fuso Navy's retaliatory and harassing action was thwarted by Li Bin, it ended hastily. There is no more to it. Think about it, too, the stronghold has been recovered by the Qi army. If you want to achieve the goal of burning the warships and regaining the stronghold, it is necessary to gather a certain scale of warships and troops to be effective, and several warships are sent out like fuel, not so much to carry out a retaliatory attack mission, but to give a big gift to the Qi army. The commander of Fuso is very good, and they will not continue to do this kind of discounted business.

Although this is the truth, Li Bin has always believed that on the battlefield, we cannot hand over the initiative and hope to the enemy and let the enemy control the trend of the battlefield.

However, it should and must be the own side that always firmly grasps the initiative on the battlefield, and does what it can and should do first, and only when it is prepared can it be safe.

Therefore, on the watchtower of the warship at the berth, Li Bin arranged for several lookout posts to monitor the movements on the nearby ocean 24 hours a day.

In the early morning of the second day, when the sky was just dawning, the Qi army led by Qi Xing, the king of Chu, drove to the city of Laizhou.

As soon as the army of King Qixing of Chu arrived, Li Bin's hanging heart finally let go, and now, even if the Fuso general Ashikaga Yoshiki was unwilling to fail and mobilized the army to counterattack and retaliate, it would be very rare.

"Brother Li, what you did this time is really beautiful, capturing so many military rations and materials, this has greatly helped me solve my urgent needs." When Qi Xing, the king of Chu, met Li Bin, he was amazed and said.

In this rescue operation, the Huizhou Qi army only brought three days of rations, and the cavalry of Zuo Batian's war horse forage was only enough for a few days to consume, and the Qi army in Dengfeng City was even more embarrassed, all the way from Laizhou to Dengfeng City, and the army food and materials were abandoned.

Moreover, it is now spring and summer, and the state capitals of Qi State, and even the capital government, are not rich in grain stocks, especially it is not easy to mobilize grain from other places in a hurry. The time to toss on the road is also enough to choke, and the 100,000 Qi soldiers on the front line will starve and fight, so maybe there will be some big chaos.

"One million loads of food, but enough to eat, is enough for our 100,000 Qi soldiers to enjoy for three or four years." Qi Xing, the king of Chu, still couldn't stop laughing excitedly.

Dengfeng City Rescue Campaign, the Qi army defending the city suffered heavy losses under the siege of the Fusang army, but in the end it was lucky to keep most of the army's strength, more than 100,000 people survived the 200,000 conscripted Qi army, counting more than 10,000 rescue troops in Huizhou, at present, Qi Xing, the king of Chu, has nearly 120,000 troops in his hands, don't underestimate the 120,000 troops, these are the standing army of the Great Qi State, the elite forbidden army that has been trained for a long time, and the state soldiers who are half peasants and half soldiers in various state capitals, that is, the gap between the regular army and the militia. Moreover, after the baptism and tempering of the Dengfeng City Campaign, the fighting spirit and combat skills of the soldiers will be improved and enhanced accordingly, and as long as they are equipped with a competent and qualified commander in the future, this Qi army will definitely become an army capable of fighting hard battles.

"Your Highness, the war is over, and I will return to Futu Gate. If you have something, you can send someone to Futu Gate to find me. Li Bin said to Qi Xing, the king of Chu, at the celebration banquet.

Qi Xing, the king of Chu, also knew that Li Bin, a brother, was obsessed with martial arts and had no interest in government affairs and military affairs, so he had to agree to Li Bin's request to return home.

"Brother Li, can you give me a list of the disciples of the Futu Sect who participated in this battle? The heroes and good men who shed their blood for Daqi, our Daqi will never be treated badly. Qi Xing, the king of Chu, held Li Bin's hands and said sincerely.

"Xiao Qi, after you finish eating and drinking, you will go and get a list of Futu Sect disciples to participate in the battle and hand it to His Royal Highness the King of Chu." After Li Bin nodded in agreement with Qi Xing, he immediately instructed the disciples on the side.

"Understood, Master." Chen Xiaoqi was grabbing a roast pork leg and feasting, with a mouthful of oil, and he replied a little vaguely.

"Eat slowly, enough wine and meat!" Li Bin smiled and scolded Chen Xiaoqi, a disciple who had no appetite, and said.

"Your Highness, I have a reluctant request, I want to incorporate the ten Fusang warships captured at the berth into the ocean-going trading fleet of Futumen to strengthen the escort force of the trading fleet." Li Bin said.

At present, the ocean-going trading fleet of Futumen is all cargo ships, and the performance and performance of ships in sea operations are naturally inferior to those of Fuso.

"This is a trivial matter, since Brother Li needs it, I will definitely support it." Li Bin's request, the king of Chu Qi Xing readily agreed.

Qi Xing, the king of Chu, is now leading the three departments of Daqi work, household and punishment, and the regent of Daqi under the imperial title of the old emperor is high and powerful. The materials captured in the war must also be assigned to the household department for management in the end, and the matter of the Fusang warship can be done as long as the king of Chu Qixing nods, which is more effective than anything else.
