    ??

    When Huang Mingyuan was fighting against Gao Shida, Hu Lusheng, a partial division commander, also led his troops into Pingyuan County.

    Pingyuan County and Qinghe County are close to the Yellow River. They are the most densely populated places north of the entire river, and are also the places where banditry is most serious.  There were more than a dozen big thieves and countless small thieves, making the two counties, which were originally extremely prosperous, empty of houses and corpses everywhere.

    Yang Yuanhong, the governor of Pingyuan County, and Yang Shanhui, the prime minister of Qinghe County, are both civil and military men who are good at recruiting and fighting. Together with Wang Bian, the tiger general who led his troops to suppress this area, they are both elite soldiers and strong generals. However, the general situation is such that they can no longer  Despite their due diligence, they were never able to completely eliminate the bandits.

    After Hu Lusheng entered Pingyuan County, the people who blocked him were the bandits Du Yanbing and Wang Runbu.

    Both of them were bandits, and they once robbed Pingyuan County with more than 100,000 people.

    Although most of these people are ordinary people who have been coerced and have little fighting ability, the two have been gangsters for many years and have a strong army at their disposal.

    Du Yanbing and Wang Run occupied Dongguang County and cut off the Yongji Canal.

    When Hu Lusheng arrived outside Dongguang County, Du Yanbing did not know the details of the Sui army, so he recalled all the plundering troops from everywhere and ordered the city to be closed and defended.

    At the same time, Hu Lusheng also ordered the entire army to retreat to the bank of Yongji Canal and set up a large camp with deep ditches and high forts, and they did not engage in combat with the enemy.

    At first, both sides avoided fighting. Later, Du Yanbing discovered the strange movements of the Sui army and felt very puzzled.  When the Sui army came to conquer them, they should not actively seek war, but how to avoid it.

    So Du Yanbing sent people to challenge and test the Sui army's intentions.

    This bandit came to the Sui army camp to challenge him, but the Sui army refused to come out and ignored him.

    Du Yanbing was even more surprised when he heard the reply. He didn¡¯t know what kind of medicine Sui Jun was selling in his gourd.  So Du Yanbing continued to order people to challenge in front of the formation. He must get a response from the Sui army and find out the true and false status of the Sui army.

    The warriors then came to the front of the formation to challenge. Seeing that the Sui army did not respond, they cursed and said all kinds of dirty words.  All the generals in the Sui army camp were angry and asked to go to war, but Hu Lusheng did not show any anger at all. Instead, the old god was there, sitting upright on the Diaoyutai.

    So despite the thieves shouting at the top of their lungs, the two sides stopped fighting.

    At this moment, Du Yanbing, who was in the bandit army opposite, felt relieved.  This group of Sui troops who came this time were just a bunch of cowards and were not to be feared at all.  I'm afraid that someone deliberately sent them here to die, and this group of people didn't dare to go out to fight, so they deliberately held on, where was the time spent?

    So Du Yanbing ordered the plundering troops that had been recovered not to worry about the Sui army on the opposite side and to continue attacking in all directions.

    When the bandits came out, it turned out that the Sui army was still guarding the camp and didn't care at all.

    Now Du Yanbing was completely relieved. He was so courageous that he even crossed the canal and started plundering westward.

    On this day, Du Yanbing and Wang Run each led their troops to plunder, leaving Dongguang City empty.  Hu Lusheng received the news and ordered the entire army to attack immediately and go straight to Dongguang City.

    These days, the Sui army did not just stay in the camp without any movement.  Hu Lusheng sent many people to disguise themselves as refugees and secretly sneaked into the city to ambush.

    When the Sui army attacked the city, these people suddenly attacked, captured the city gate, and let the Sui army enter the city.

    The bandits in the city were all old and weak and could not stop the main force of the Sui army, so Dongguang City was attacked.  Du Yanbing and Wang Run's families and baggage were all captured by the Sui army.

    After Hu Lusheng broke the city, he ordered people to disguise themselves as defeated troops and go to Du Yanbing and Wang Run's army, and recruited them to come to Dongguang for rescue.  Song Junming was ordered to lead two thousand cavalry to ambush on the bank of Yongji Canal.

    Wang Run, who came from the north to inquire, was shocked when he heard that Dongguang City was attacked by the Sui army. He immediately changed direction and headed south non-stop.  When his troops were crossing the river, the Sui army who had been ambushing here suddenly broke out and defeated his troops. Wang Run himself was also beheaded.

    The same goes for Du Yanbing who returned from the south. The Sui army set up an ambush at the place where Du Yanbing must pass when he returned, giving Du Yanbing a fatal blow.

    However, Du Yanbing also reacted quickly. As soon as he saw the sudden appearance of the Sui army's cavalry, he knew that he had been ambushed by the Sui army.  He made no resistance and immediately led his troops to retreat south.

    As a remaining figure among thieves, Du Yanbing may not be very capable, but his eyesight is extremely strong.  He knew in his heart that he would definitely be no match for such an ambush. Instead of fighting the Sui army into a desperate situation, it would be better to retreat directly. As for Dongguang City, he couldn't even care about it.

    This is also one of the important reasons why bandits are difficult to eradicate. They attack from all directions, have no fixed residence, and do not care about the gains and losses of one city or one place.  Even if they are defeated by the army, as long as the leader survives and lurks for a period of time with ten or eight henchmen, when the news is over, he can immediately pull out another bandit army.Later, the ashes resurgence, over and over again.

    Seeing this, Hu Lusheng immediately ordered all ministries to pursue him in order to kill Du Yanbing.

    After making such a good meal, if Du Yanbing ran away, wouldn't it be a disaster?

    So Hu Lusheng personally led the cavalry in pursuit. He pursued Du Yanbing for hundreds of miles without stopping, and finally blocked him in the east of Changhe County (now east of Dezhou City, Shandong Province).

    Du Yanbing was brave and committed many evil deeds. He knew that he would not be able to survive in the hands of the Sui army, so he fought to the death.

    The Sui army was unable to capture it for a while, so they surrounded Du Yanbing's troops.

    There was a general under Du Yanbing who knew how much the government valued Du Yanbing, so he thought that if he captured him alive and sacrificed him to the government, he would definitely avoid death.  So at night, he took advantage of his unpreparedness and conspired with others to capture Du Yanbing.

    Although bandits talk about loyalty, in fact, when the critical moment comes, they are the ones who are least loyal.  When disaster strikes, they all fly away, so it's not surprising that Du Yanbing's men traded Du Yanbing's head for a way out.

    The crowd tied up Du Yanbing and sent him to the Sui army.

    Hu Lusheng didn¡¯t know Du Yanbing. Looking at him with his short stature and sinister look, he really couldn¡¯t believe that this was the giant thief from the plains who had killed countless people and once massacred thousands of people in the city in one morning.

    " Du Yanbing was also kind. He knew that he would definitely die at this time, so he didn't beg for mercy. Instead, he kept scolding him.

    Hu Lusheng did not get angry with the other party, but ordered a huge tree to be erected at the Dongguang City Gate, and then hung Du Yanbing on it, three feet above the ground. At the same time, his head and limbs were hung with ropes to prevent him from moving.  .

    Hu Lusheng ordered that anyone who had a grudge against Du Yanbing could come and have his flesh cut off.

    Du Yanbing has been wreaking havoc in the plains for several years. He killed thousands of people in Husu County (now Xibaodian Town, Ningjin County, Shandong Province) in one morning. The people hated him so much that they came to compete for food.

    At first, Du Yanbing had a heroic spirit and sang loudly, but later the pain became unbearable and he had to beg loudly for mercy and pleasure.

    Of course Hu Lusheng refused, so Du Yanbing divided and ate the food for the common people in the plains, and ended up with no bones left.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
