Horse on the World

316 - Chapter [-]
Li Shanbin dropped his spear and closed his eyes. Under the shooting of hundreds of strong bows, they didn't even have a shield, any resistance was unnecessary.Stretched out both hands, and hugged the two guards beside him, "Brothers, you are with me all the way, don't get lost!" The two guards around me smiled wryly, dropped the weapons in their hands, and stretched out their arms to hug the companion on the side , said in a low voice: "I have company all the way, don't get lost!" In an instant, a circle of bodyguards hugged each other's shoulders, and this sentence spread from the head of the line to the end of the line, back to Li Shanbin.

"Be with me all the way, don't get lost!" Dozens of people shouted together.

This situation moved Wang Qi, who was full of hatred in his heart, and hesitated for a while, but when he thought of the comrade who had just fallen beside him, his heart hardened again.

"Get ready!" he yelled.

Suddenly, the sound of horseshoes suddenly came to mind, and a crisp but very penetrating voice came from afar, "Stop, keep the arrows!"

Wang Qi suddenly turned around, and it was Zhong Jing who came on the flying horse.

Zhong Jing galloped to the front, panting heavily under the crotch of the horse, obviously exhausted, Zhong Jing said sharply: "Stop! Put down the arrows!"

The cavalry all looked at Wang Qi. The order they got from Li Feng was to obey Wang Qi's command completely. When Wang Qi heard Zhong Jing's words, he was furious, "Lord Zhong, why?"

"This is an urgent order from Dingzhou. Do you want to disobey it?"

"This order from that son of a bitch? Master Zhong, don't you know how many of our brothers died under this man's hands?" Wang Qi was furious.

Zhong Jing's face turned cold, and she said sharply: "Wang Qi, are you going to rebel? This is an order signed by Shang Canjun and co-signed by Director Qingfeng! You dare to scold Miss, I don't want to kill you!"

Wang Qi's face changed drastically, "Director, how could she co-sign this bastard order? This, this..." After a long time, he didn't dare to disobey Qingfeng's order, and said sullenly: "Retract the arrows, retract the arrows!" Seeing Wang Qi's attitude, Zhong Jing couldn't help admiring Shang Haibo. If his order was not signed by Miss, Wang Qi would really dare to disobey his order and kill Li Shanbin. Take care of him, and the lady will definitely keep her hard-core confidant.And with Miss's joint signature, no matter how much Wang Qi hates Li Shanbin, he can only obey orders. Mr. Shang is really considerate of everything. He must have thought of all kinds of possible situations when he wrote this order. .

"Why exactly?" Wang Qi walked to Zhong Jing and asked in a low voice, always feeling a little unwilling, the cooked duck flapped its wings and flew away.

"Miss and military division Shang joined hands to reach Qixia Pass. I don't know why. I just know that military division Shang heard that you led troops to chase after him, so he got angry and asked for my lady's permission to stop me on a flying horse. Running all the way makes me very tired, you can take your troops back! If you have any questions, ask the young lady, I believe the young lady will give you a satisfactory answer."

Wang Qi glanced at Li Shanbin bitterly, and said loudly: "Let's go!" Just turn the horse's head and five hundred cavalry lined up in a neat formation, and rode away.

Zhong Jing rode his horse and approached Li Shanbin. Li Shanbin, who had circled around the gate of hell, was still in a dream. He didn't understand why the opponent suddenly let him go. Could it be that they chased him for hours just to scare him? Suddenly, his body was dripping with sweat.

"Thank you for this lady's rescue!" Li Shanbin cupped his fists and bowed to Zhong Jing, but the soldiers around him didn't have his energy-raising skills. They walked around from birth to death. At this time, their legs were weak, They all sat down on the ground, as if they were in a dream.

Zhong Jing looked at him coldly, and said: "You don't need to thank me. If I follow my original intention, I will let Wang Qi shoot you to death with a burst of arrows to relieve my anger. It's just that this is an order from Dingzhou, and I just follow the order." .”

Li Shanbin put a hot face on his cold ass, stared for a while, then nodded and said: "It's all the same, so I owe Dingzhou a life-saving favor. If I can survive, I will definitely repay this favor in the future, Li Shanbin Do what you say, and never break your word."

Zhong Jing looked at him for a while, then sneered and said: "General Li, you should think about how to escape the pursuit of you by Marshal Wu Zecheng, and want to repay the kindness of Dingzhou for giving you this chance of survival, and also want you to live Just do it." After saying that, he galloped away, never bothering to look at the other party.

"Director, Director!" Bumping into Qixiaguan Yuan Li Shanbin's garrison, seeing Qingfeng at a glance, regardless of Shang Haibo's presence, Wang Qi knelt down in front of Qingfeng with a bang, "I'm useless, Director, I lost more than half of the [-] secret service members, and I asked the director to punish him, but the director, why did you let that thief Li Shanbin go, most of our brothers died at his hands!" Wang Qi fell to the ground and cried loudly.

Qingfeng, who was rushing all the way, was a little pale, but his eyes were very excited. Winning Qixia Pass is equivalent to opening the door for the general to enter the Central Plains. It is almost as important, but a few days after Li Feng led the team to set off, she and Shang Haibo were afraid that Li Feng would not be able to stabilize the situation after occupying Qixia Pass, so they hastily led a wing of the Panshi Battalion to join hands. arrive.

Seeing Wang Qi's grief and indignation, Qingfeng smiled, stood up and walked in front of Wang Qi, helped him up with his own hands, and said: "Wang Qi, get up, you have done a good job, not only innocent, but also very skillful, this time To capture Qixia Pass, you and the [-] special service members should take the lead, right, Mr. Shang?"

Shang Haibo stroked his beard and nodded happily, as if at this moment, the barrier between him and Qingfeng did not exist at all, "Director Qingfeng is right, it should be the first credit."

"But why let thief Li go, I've surrounded him, he's already the softshell." Wang Qi's face was still full of tears, dripping down with sweat, covering his face with dust. It turned into a big painted face.

Qingfeng smiled slightly, and patiently said to the hero: "Wang Qi, killing him is easy, but keeping him alive is more valuable, do you understand?"

"I don't understand." Wang Qi pouted.

Shaking his head gently, Qingfeng knew that his confidant general was a good hand in action, but he knew nothing about politics, "Wang Qi, we took Qixia Pass to occupy him permanently, but how How about occupying him justifiably? You know, Qixiaguan is a territory of Bingzhou, so it is really illegal for us to attack the subjects of Dachu?"

Wang Qi said: "But Thief Li seized our army's food and grass for no reason. They were the ones who provoked the incident first."

"That's what I said, but you also know who Li Shanbin belongs to?"

"It's King Ning's man!" Wang Qi gritted his teeth authentically.

"Yes, Li Shanbin belongs to King Ning, but Qixia Pass belongs to Wu Zecheng of Bingzhou. If we kill Li Shanbin, Wu Zecheng can say that Li Shanbin was bewitched by King Ning to make Dingzhou difficult. He really doesn't know. , so there is no proof, what should we do if he asks us to return Qixiaguan and is willing to compensate us for all our losses? He can even mobilize the person in the palace to issue an imperial edict to Dingzhou, what should we do? After all, it is not with us yet When he completely turned his back on him, although everyone knew what was going on, he still had to be kind! Therefore, we let Li Shanbin go, no matter whether Wu Zecheng can catch him or not, we can plant Wu Zecheng .”

"What if Wu Zecheng caught Li Shanbin and sent him to us as an excuse?" Wang Qi asked.

Qingfeng smiled and said: "I reckon Wu Zecheng won't be able to catch him, and Zhong Ziqi, once he hears that Qixia Pass has fallen into our hands, will try to rescue this person, and then Li Shanbin will come forward and claim that he was tortured." Wu Zecheng ordered to act, and the matter was brought to light and he wanted to kill him, hehe, the stolen goods were firmly planted on Wu Zecheng, and we can occupy Qixia Pass in a legitimate way. Presumably King Ning is also very happy that we occupy the leader Qixia Pass , threatening the Xiao family."

Shang Haibo also said with a smile: "King Ning wants to weaken us with food, but seeing that this plan is ineffective, and instead prompts us to occupy Qixia Pass, he must be busy looking for us to form an alliance, and Xiao Shi also knows that we are actually Knowing that Li Shanbin is King Ning, and the deduction of food was also ordered by King Ning, he thinks that we will definitely hate King Ning, and will definitely find us to form an alliance against King Ning. If this is the case, he might even acquiesce in allowing us to dominate Qixia Pass , Hahaha, it is of great benefit to me in Dingzhou to have both ways."

Wang Qi was confused by these words, touched his head, and said: "Director, Shang Canjun, what you said seems to make sense, but I don't understand it, but there is one thing, we are on good terms with the Xiao family. The elephant has a deep hatred, how could the Xiao family be willing to form an alliance with us, and we occupy Qixia, which is a real threat to them!"

Shang Haibo said with a smile: "There are no eternal enemies, no eternal friends, only eternal interests. Right now, Xiao's number one enemy is not us, but King Ning. Don't say that we just expelled Xiao Yuanshan back then, we just killed him." In the face of huge interests, the Xiao family can only smash their teeth and swallow it, and they will find an alliance with you."

Wang Qi seemed to understand a little bit, was stunned for a while, and suddenly said a little bit aggrieved: "Director, military advisor, what you said is reasonable, but it sounds like King Ning and the Xiao family look down on us, thinking that we just If we can form an alliance with them, are we worse than them, I think we are much better than them."

Qingfeng and Shang Haibo looked at each other, and laughed at the same time, Qingfeng stretched out his finger, nodded Wang Qi, and said: "You, I think you are about to catch up with Tang Hu, what's the matter if you look down on us?" , It’s better to look down on us, there is always a time for them to cry, okay, okay, you go down and clean up, a dignified general, crying in the middle of the hall, it really hurts the face of our investigation department.”

Wang Qi sniffled, saluted the two embarrassedly, and turned to leave.

"A brave man! It's rare to be a hero with love and righteousness!" Shang Haibo commented.

A few days later, Zhong Ziqi, who had just left Bingzhou, received secret information. After a long silence, he ordered his subordinates to lead Li Shanbin's wife and children to set off for Ningzhou, while he returned to Bingzhou in a hurry and called Xu Siyu to arrive Bingzhou, he wants to find Li Shanbin and take him away.
