Cao Bin was speechless, so he could only calm down solemnly:

"It will be up to you to break through the blockade of the Liao army in a while. If you perform well, I will personally ask His Majesty for credit for you."

Although the cavalryman was a little disappointed, but after thinking about it, he still felt that the future was more important, so he immediately smiled.

It's normal to be in the army and swear while driving.

Not only did he not feel that Cao Bin insulted him, but he also felt that he was very kind, so he quickly smiled and beat his horse to leave.

Eighth Sister Yang said indignantly:

"Guiying, why did Cao Bin say so frivolously? That person should be scolded."

"It's not enough to run for your life on horseback, you have to compete with pawns!"

Mu Guiying rolled her eyes and didn't bother to pay attention to her...just got off Cao Bin's horse and found another one.

Seeing this, Cao Bin urged the horse to move forward, while smiling at Eighth Sister Yang:

"Eight sister, my horse sits comfortably, do you want to come to my place?"

Seeing Yang Bajie eager to try, Mu Guiying has already led an empty horse and rushed up:

"Eighth Sister, I need you to fight with your strength later, don't hide behind other people's horses."

(Eighth Sister does not indicate seniority in the Song Dynasty, it is roughly similar to Eighth Miss, Eighth Girl, and Eighth Lady.)

Eighth Sister Yang muttered, "My legs are hurt..."

Although a little reluctant, I had to accept it.

Although they were remnants and defeated generals, they marched very fast, and returned to the vicinity of Zhending City within half an hour.

Seeing the fierce fighting outside the city, shouting to Yingtian, Cao Bin quickly waved his hand and said solemnly:

"The cavalry is at the front, you must follow the general flag closely, and those who lag behind and hesitate will be killed..."

At this time, Ali Qi outside Zhending City was already sweating a little.

He did not expect that the [-] infantry troops sent by the Song Army outside the city were so tenacious.

Just like copper peas that cannot be smashed, crushed, or crushed.

His tens of thousands of troops, heavy cavalry, light cavalry, and crossbow formations, attacked in turn, and killed more than half of them.

But it just won't collapse if you hit it, and it won't collapse if you hit it.

In addition, Taijun She and Auntie Yang regrouped to join the battle, and they almost pushed back several times.

In fact, the real formation of the entrapment army was only half a year after Gao Shun appeared, and it has been marching and fighting.

There is not much time for real training.

There were not many soldiers who were endowed with the soldier soul of "trapped camp", only dozens of them.

Not even their armor was complete.

It is normal to lose more than half.

It's not that Cao Bin doesn't have the money to equip them, but he can't pay for it himself...

"The will to fall into the battle, there is death but not life!"

Hearing the firm shouts, and seeing his heavy cavalry come back again, Aric even thought of withdrawing from the army.

It's just that Emperor Liao was not far behind, so he didn't dare to issue this order rashly.

If he ran back in disgrace, not to mention whether Emperor Liao would blame him, he would never think about raising his head in front of his colleagues in the future.

Really set the city head.

The emperor, Kou Zhun, Pan Renmei and others were also watching the battle.

Looking at the performance of the soldiers in the formation, he couldn't help being refreshed, and praised again and again:

"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it."

"A few years ago during the military exercise, this army was still a regiment of trained civilians, but at this time, it has surpassed all other armies in terms of combat prowess."

"In the past, you all said that Cao Bin was ignorant, ridiculous, ridiculous!"

He watched the army grow up and named it himself, so he felt doubly kind and caring.

Kou Zhun nodded and said:

"Officials, it's time to send reinforcements. Under such circumstances, there is absolutely no way for the Liao army to seize the city!"

"Furthermore, Madam She and Auntie Yang are also under the city, how can they refuse to save them?"

The emperor nodded and was about to give an order, but Pan Renmei hurriedly stopped him:

"Wait a minute, Your Majesty. The army that has fallen into the formation has lost more than half of it, and it may collapse at any time. Don't be careless."

"Besides, we've already prepared a hanging basket. It's Madam She herself who refuses to go back to the city..."

In fact, Pan Renmei was also shocked by the combat power of the trapped army, and she was very anxious and helpless.

If the entrapment army is undefeated, it means that his previous decision-making was extremely wrong, and he is likely to be punished by the emperor.

Before disregarding his colleagues and withdrawing troops without authorization, he would also be suspected of being cowardly and framed.

Wouldn't he be a waste in the eyes of the emperor?

So he tried his best to prevent the emperor from sending reinforcements.

As for Song Anwei, he felt that it would not be irretrievable.

"Teacher, you are too cautious."

The emperor looked at him with a frown, somewhat incomprehensible.

Pan Renmei's eyelids twitched, and she quickly explained:

"Your Majesty, you are negligent in military strategy and don't know much about changes in the battlefield..."

As he was speaking, he saw a cavalry army suddenly appearing from behind the Liao army, rushing towards them like riding the wind and breaking through the waves.

The intercepted Liao army split open like a collapsed dam, followed by countless Song army infantry.

The emperor was overjoyed when he saw this, and regardless of Pan Renmei's stop, he repeatedly slapped the city wall and said excitedly:

"It's Cao Bin, he came back from saving people, open the city gate quickly, and send troops to meet him..."

Kou Zhun smiled to himself as he watched Pan Renmei's back as she hurriedly went to dispatch troops.

Pan Renmei was so impatient with a "Falling Army", she even said what she said to teach the emperor in private.

If this is said in court, it is regarded as upright, but if it is said in private, it is not known.

If it weren't for the current emperor's benevolence, I would give him some eye drops.

It's just that Kou Zhun didn't know that although he disdained it, Pan Renmei had already slandered him countless times in front of the emperor.

It sounds good to say that Yu Jia's personal conquest is out of publicity, but he suggested that the emperor take risks at every turn, which has already caused suspicion in the emperor's heart.

Coupled with his domineering behavior before he was demoted to Xiangzhou, one can imagine the emperor's opinion of him.

It is said that the people are the most important, the country is second, and the king is the least.

Kou Zhun has lofty aspirations and the nobility of a literati, so he naturally upholds this classic idea.

For them, it is best for the state affairs to be handled by virtuous ministers, and it is good for the emperor to govern.

That's why he acted radically, and it was easy to ignore the emperor's thoughts.

However, for the emperor, "the king is less important" and so on are completely nonsense.

No matter how lenient the emperor is, it is difficult to tolerate the reduction of power in his hands.

Kou Zhun didn't know what the emperor was thinking, and when he returned to court this time, he still had unabated ambitions.

Now that he has mastered Cao Bin's economic method, he is waiting for the moment when he regains control of the court and realizes his ambition...

In fact, there are not many such people in the court. Fu Bi, Han Qi, Zhang Dun, and even Cao Bin may not have such thoughts.

He didn't participate in the political reform, just because it was not presided over by him, it didn't suit his wishes, and he didn't have the status and strength to protect himself.

However, his thoughts are not strong. If there is no chance, he is willing to give up the next best thing and "be alone"...

In fact, even he himself doesn't know that the reason why his desire is not so strong is not that he doesn't want to change Da Song.

It's that he is not confident enough in his ability, after all, he is in control of a country's affairs.

He still has some bottom line. If Da Song Yin becomes worse for him, even if he can go overseas and live a rich life, he will still feel a little guilty.

...When you brag, you are afraid of being struck by lightning!

"Okay, the Liao army has retreated!"

Just as Kou Zhun was sketching out the future national policy in his mind, the emperor suddenly slapped the city wall hard and cried out in great joy.

With Cao Bin's operation, Aric has already used up all his cards ahead of time.

Now that the Song army was attacking from both sides, he couldn't stand it immediately, so he had no choice but to retreat.

If you delay any longer, I am afraid that the entire army will be wiped out.

Cao Bin and others did not pursue them either, and the veterans were exhausted. If they were able to repel the Liao army, they had already tried their best.

In this battle, the Song army mobilized a total of 13 horses, and only [-] to [-] came back, almost half of them lost.

Seeing that almost everyone was injured, the emperor didn't blame him, and said with concern:

"You have worked hard, go back to the camp to treat your wounds, and I will send imperial doctors and medicines."

"Don't worry, this battle was caused by the cunning of the Liao people. You have made no mistakes!"

All the generals were moved to tears when they heard the words, and after thanking them, they bid farewell.

Seeing this, Pan Renmei also secretly heaved a sigh of relief, since no one was at fault, she had escaped a catastrophe.

So he hurriedly cupped his hands and said:

"Your Majesty, this battle is all due to the misjudgment of the old officials, please punish the officials!"

The emperor nodded and said:

"Pan Qing's family is indeed a bit careless this time, if it's not for being talented...forget it, you should give up the position of Grand Master first!"

Pan Renmei's face froze, she said helplessly:

"Your Majesty has clear rewards and punishments, and the minister is sincerely convinced."

The emperor waved his hand and told him to step back.

Zishui camp.

Emperor Liao almost died of anger, and dropped a lot of things, which made his generals tremble with fright.

Former army commander Wu Yanguang didn't even dare to lift his head, and was sweating profusely from being scolded.

"I personally cooperate with you in designing and planning, and you leave me with such a result?"

This battle started from the Shahe section, and the Liao army mobilized a total of 21 horses, intending to wipe out the main force of the Song army.

I didn't expect to be escaped by the other party, and my family also lost 7 to [-] people, which is a lot more than Song Jun's loss.

Ma De, if you don't come by yourself, you can confront each other and lead your troops to come by yourself, the result is still the same.

Didn't I come here in vain?

Aric quickly said:

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty, our plan was going well, but it was all spoiled by Song General Cao Bin."

"His soldiers are really powerful, the last general waits..."

Before he could finish speaking, Emperor Liao threw the jade ax out of his hand and said angrily:

"Trash, idiot, even if Cao Bin is hard to match, how many people do he have, how many people do you have?"

"Didn't it be expected in advance?"

Wu Yanguang smiled wryly, they did not expect it.

Although Cao Bin gained fame during the Xixia War, he still has a reputation as a dude after his debut not long after all.
