Chapter 21
Looking at Tang Yin's retreating figure, Wu Yi had mixed emotions. If Tang Yin hadn't appeared, today's task would most likely have fallen on him. Now that Tang Yin was taking his place, he should have been happy, but
But he was not happy at all. The more peaceful and casual Tang Yin was, the more ashamed he felt of his own cowardice and cowardice.
When Tang Yin was about to leave the camp, Qiu Zhen chased after him.
As if he expected the purpose of his pursuit, Tang Yin stepped back. After his men had gone away, he smiled and said, "Qiu Zhen, what are you doing here?"
Qiu Zhen didn't smile, his face was gloomy, and he asked: "Are you really not going to take me there?"
Tang Yin said: "You have to ask yourself first, how can you help me in the melee."
"At least I can help you with an idea in a critical moment."
"Forget it, I'm afraid your head will move before you even have an idea. If you really want to die, I can't stop you, but you have to die far away and don't die in front of my eyes."
Qiu Zhen's face turned red and white when Tang Yin said it. He was so smart, of course he could tell that Tang Yin deliberately said such heartless words, but at this time he hated his own cleverness. If he couldn't tell Tang Yin's original intention,
He might feel more comfortable in his heart, at least he wouldn't be more reluctant to leave him like he is now.
There was no time to delay. Seeing that his men had already walked far away, Tang Yin turned around and walked away. He waved his hands without looking back and said, "That's it, bye."
"Bye?" Qiu Zhen was confused.
"It means goodbye." Tang Yin smiled and knocked on his head.
Qiu Zhen chased a few steps and asked, "Can we meet again?"
"I don't know." Tang Yin suddenly turned around with a bright smile on his face and said, "But I will try my best and see you again!"
"..." Qiu Zhen lowered his head. He had been in the army for a long time and had seen too many comrades die tragically at the hands of the enemy's guns and swords. But he had never felt like this before, with his eyes stinging and tears about to fall.
On the way to Tongmen, Tang Yin and others walked very slowly. They knew full well that what opened ahead was not a road back home, but a door of death.
Feeling that the atmosphere was a bit dull, Zhang Bao suddenly sang: "When the country is in danger, I will go to war; I will be wrapped in horse leather to strengthen my glory!"
Soon, his singing infected everyone, and people sang along with him, over and over again.
This song is called "Song of the Great Wind". The content is simple, with only four short sentences and sixteen characters, but it is the military song of the Feng Kingdom. The melody is low in the front and high in the back. It is exciting and tragic at the same time.
The Feng Kingdom is the latest one to appear among the nine major vassal states. It is located in the northeast of the Haotian Empire. Internally, it has to contend with and deal with other vassal states. Externally, it has to constantly resist the empire's neighboring state-the Federal Kingdom of Morpheus.
Harassment and invasion, it can be said that wars have never stopped since the founding of the People's Republic of China. Over the past eight hundred years, countless soldiers of the Feng Kingdom have died on the battlefield and died in a foreign land. However, the Feng people persevered with their stubbornness and unwillingness to admit defeat.
And established a vast territory within the empire.
"Song of the Great Wind" is a portrayal of the country of wind, and was written with the blood and tears of countless wind people.
Listening to the bursts of singing in his ears, even the cold-tempered Tang Yin unconsciously sang along.
At noon, Zhang Bao, who was at the front of the team, hurried towards Tang Yin and said urgently: "Brother Tang, there is an enemy situation ahead!"
After hearing this, Tang Yin perked up and walked to the front of the team. He looked up and saw that there was a group of people coming quickly on the road ahead. They were all cavalry, numbering more than a hundred, under the banner of the Ning Army.
After seeing it clearly, Tang Yin looked back and saw that everyone on his side had already drawn up their posture and prepared for battle. He shouted loudly: "Put away your weapons and be patient. Don't forget, we are Ning soldiers now!"
When Tang Yin spoke, there was an irresistible force. After listening to his words, everyone calmed down, and the guys who showed their faces also took back their hands.
Looking at everyone one by one, Tang Yin said again: "Check each other and don't expose any flaws!" Although the enemy only had about a hundred or so, he didn't take it seriously, but what he wanted was to sneak into the enemy's formation, not outside.
A fight breaks out.
Except for Zhang Bao's group, everyone else was dressed as prisoners, with ropes tied around their bodies. Although the ropes seemed to be strong, they actually had hidden buckles that would loosen when pulled. They also had sharp knives hidden under their clothes.
Not long after, the cavalry team arrived in front of Tang Yin and others at lightning speed. The leading captain urged the horse forward. He first raised his eyes and looked, then frowned and asked in a cold voice: "What's going on?"
Just as Zhang Bao was about to step forward to speak, Tang Yin quietly pulled him back, raised his head, smiled at the captain on the horse, and said: "These are the prisoners of Feng Kingdom..."
Before he could finish his words, the cavalry captain interrupted dissatisfiedly: "I'm not blind, of course I know they are prisoners. I'm asking you why you took these prisoners? Why don't you punish them on the spot?" As he spoke, he jumped from his horse.
He took out a spear from his back, without saying hello, and stabbed the Feng Kingdom soldier standing at the front in the neck.
No one expected that he would suddenly scare the soldier. The soldier's face was pale, but at this time it was too late to break free from the rope and dodge the opponent's attack. At this moment, Tang Yin's shot was like lightning, and the tip of the spear was about to hit the soldier.
When he pressed his throat, he raised the hand holding the sword outward. He did not draw the sword, but just hit the gun body with the scabbard, deflecting the cavalry captain's shot.
Whoa! The tip of the spear grazed the side of the soldier's neck.
The cavalry captain changed his color. Tang Yin's clothes were no different from those of ordinary soldiers. He was just a squad leader at best. He dared to contradict him like this. He was so ambitious. He shouted angrily: "You..."
The smile on Tang Yin's face did not diminish, and he said unhurriedly: "Captain, I am ordered to escort these prisoners. I dare not disobey the orders of my superiors. I hope that the captain will not make it difficult for me."
His words were quite polite, but his tone of voice was neither condescending nor arrogant, and his expression was calm, as if he had a great background.
The anger on the cavalry captain's face softened, and he asked suspiciously: "Which infantry regiment are you from?"
Tang Yin took off his military badge from his waist, handed it forward, and said, "We belong to the Fifth Infantry Regiment."
The cavalry captain just glanced at his military badge, without even connecting, and asked: "Where will these prisoners be taken?"
Tang Yin didn't know where to escort the prisoners, so he just made nonsense: "The battlefield ahead."
The cavalry captain looked suspicious and murmured: "Does any of these prisoners possess important information about Tongmen?"
Tongmen? He only talked about the battlefield ahead, so why did he have anything to do with Tongmen? Suddenly, an idea flashed in Tang Yin's mind, and he remembered what Qiu Zhen had said. Ning Guo would never let go of this opportunity and would definitely march into Tongmen.
Gate. Could it be that Qiu Zhenyan was really fooled and the Ning army has begun to prepare to attack Tongmen?
Alas! He sighed secretly. It seems that this defeat has put the situation of Feng Kingdom in danger. He was thinking about it in his heart, but he was not idle and said with a smile: "Who knows! I
I am only responsible for escorting them, but I don’t know what happened specifically.”
The cavalry captain rolled his eyes at him angrily, as if complaining that what he said was nonsense. If you knew the inside story, you wouldn't be just a soldier.
He turned the horse's head impatiently, raised his head and said: "The front is an important checkpoint for our army. I don't know if I can let you pass. I'll go back and report first." As he spoke, he ignored Tang Yin and others, and led a hundred of his men.
The remaining knights returned the same way.
Tang Yin secretly grinned. How could Ning State, such an important checkpoint, allow a group of Ning soldiers to appear suddenly? Moreover, he only had Ning Bing's military badges and no military documents. As long as the other party asked him deeply.
, people like myself will definitely expose their secrets.
Thinking that he didn't dare to delay any longer, he said urgently to his subordinates: "Let's go! Before the other party comes back, we have to find a way to sneak into Ningguo's checkpoint first!"
