"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded his head. Ziying's words were the opinion he wanted to hear most. He leaned forward and asked: "Ziying, who do you think is the best person to serve as the head of Hedong County?"
good?"
"This..." Ziying had just conquered Qingyuan, and he didn't know what extraordinary talents there were in the city. Now when Tang Yin asked him this question, he couldn't answer.
Tang Yin asked again: "Who is the deputy chief of Hedong County in Ningguo?"
Ziying hurriedly replied: "My name is Gao Tang, and he died in battle!"
Tang Yin frowned and asked again: "Who is the lord of Qingyuan City?"
Ziying was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "This man's name is Wang Kai. He has been captured by our soldiers and is now being held in a prison in the city. However, he is stubborn and has not said a word since he was captured.
"
"Oh?" Tang Yin likes such a tough person the most, and Qingyuan is a county. The person who can serve as the lord of Qingyuan City must have extraordinary abilities. Tang Yin smiled leisurely and said: "Bring him here
see me."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Ziying agreed simply, but she didn't agree in her heart. It is impossible for a Ningguo die-hard like Wang Kai to surrender to his own side, let alone to switch sides. He should still treat such a person
The best option was to eliminate him. However, if Tang Yin wanted to see him, he couldn't stop him. Ziying told the general behind him to rush to the prison immediately and bring Wang Kai to the county capital.
The general's front foot moved further, and Lotte walked quickly from outside. When he came to Tang Yin, he respectfully handed over a letter and said softly: "Your Majesty, General Xiao's flying pigeon is delivering a letter."
"Oh?" After hearing this, Tang Yin immediately took it, unfolded the letter, and looked down at it carefully. At this time, everyone's eyes were also turned to Tang Yin. Since it was a letter from Xiao Muqing, it must be related to the battle report from Xiaoxia City.
Relationship, currently our side has captured Fengcheng and Qingyuan, and the original target is Xiaoxia.
Everyone looked at Tang Yin eagerly, but the latter showed no emotion or anger, and his expression did not change when he read the letter. From his face, no one could tell whether the content of the letter was good or bad. They waited until he read the contents of the whole book carefully.
After reading it once, Tang Yinfang smiled calmly, put down the letter, and said to everyone: "The Pingyuan Army commanded by Xiao Muqing and Wu Guang have successfully captured Xiaoxia, but they made my Pingyuan Army brothers act like mice.
!”
Everyone was overjoyed at first, and then they were stunned. They didn’t understand what the last half of Tang Yin’s sentence meant. Tang Yin said with a smile: “Xiao Muqing and Wu Guang took advantage of the soft soil conditions in the Hedong area to dig dense tunnels in the camp, all the way from the camp.
Entering Xiaoxia City, early this morning, the Pingyuan Army brothers secretly sneaked into the city through the tunnel, killing the Ning Army by surprise, and have now successfully occupied Xiaoxia."
Hey! After hearing this, everyone looked happy, and at the same time they had to admire the minds of Xiao Muqing and Wu Guang. Although Liang Qi succeeded in capturing Fengcheng, he also suffered a lot of casualties, and Shangguan Yuanrang was seriously injured.
Although Ziying defeated Qingyuan lightly, it was at the cost of the lives of 50,000 Ningguo people. In the three city battles, only Xiaoxia fought the most easily and smoothly, with basically no losses, and successfully captured Xiaoxia.
Ziying also nodded secretly. Now everyone is stepping on the land of Hedong all the time, and they are very annoyed by the softness of the land of Hedong. However, the only people who can think of taking advantage of this are Xiao Muqing and Wu Guang.
After a long pause, seeing that everyone had finished their review, Tang Yinfang continued: "Our army suffered almost no casualties in this battle, but Ning's army also suffered no casualties. When our army sneaked into Xiaoxia, Ning's army did not do anything.
When they resisted, their commander-in-chief Wu Huan led his troops to flee south. The main purpose of Xiao Muqing's letter was to ask me whether I should pursue or let go of the Ning army who fled south."
Oh, so that’s it! Everyone looked at each other and laughed in unison. It seems that there are some weaklings in the Ning army. Our brothers just sneaked into the city and scared them into abandoning the city and fled. "Your Majesty!" Guyue said with his hands in hand:
"This Ning army is very weak, and the Pingyuan army is extremely powerful. As long as we catch up with the enemy, we can annihilate the 100,000 Ning army in one fell swoop and eliminate future troubles forever!"
At this time, Jiang Fan blinked his eyes, took a sudden breath, stood up hurriedly, stepped in and saluted Tang Yin and said: "Your Majesty, as far as I know, the south of Hedong is a vast swamp, which the people of Ning call "
Our officers and soldiers don’t know the terrain of the Armadillo Swamp. Once we chase the enemy deep into the swamp, we may not be able to get in or out!”
"Ah?" Tang Yin was shocked when he heard this, and immediately said: "Bring me the map of Hedong!"
Shangguan Yuanwu hurriedly handed the Hedong map he carried with him to Tang Yin. The latter took it and looked down at it carefully. On the Hedong map drawn by Feng State, the armadillo swamp was not clearly marked, but was simply drawn as a wilderness open space.
, and added a note beside it: There are many swamps here.
After looking at it, Tang Yin frowned and asked Jiang Fan, "How big is the Armadillo Swamp you mentioned?"
Jiang Fan did not hide anything and explained everything he knew to Tang Yin. Finally, he said with great concern: "In view of the general, Ning's army's flight south is not unreasonable. If our army
If we don't pursue them, we can go all the way south and successfully escape into Jiuyou County in the south of Ning State. If our army pursues us, they can take advantage of their familiarity with the terrain to lure our army into the swamp. Once our army of 100,000 is deep in the quagmire, we will
It will be difficult to use the charge and close combat that our army is good at. By then, the power of Ning's arrow array will be fully demonstrated, and our soldiers will be in danger!"
Tang Yin and everyone present took a deep breath, and Letian's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly intervened and saluted Tang Yin: "Your Majesty, I will write a reply to General Xiao right now, telling him not to pursue the enemy!"
Waving his hand, Tang Yin stopped Lotte. He rolled his eyes and did not answer immediately. After pondering for a while, he murmured: "Since Ning Jun can understand the topography of the Armadillo Swamp, there must be many people in Ning Country who understand it."
, why don’t we take advantage of this and send a surprise force to advance the Ning army into the Armadillo Swamp and set up an ambush there. If the Ning army really wants to advance in, the ambush troops can attack the Ning army in front and back together with the Pingyuan army to flank the Ning army."
After hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought. After a long while, Gu Yue said worriedly: "Your Majesty, Ning Ren cannot be trusted. It is too risky to send a surprise army to the Armadillo Swamp."
"Otherwise, I think the king's plan is feasible!" Ziying said sternly: "If you ignore this hundred thousand Ning soldiers now and let them escape, then wait until the Ning reinforcements of five hundred thousand arrive to the east of Hedong and join us.
During the confrontation between the two armies, what if this Ning army comes back and attacks our rear? By then, our entire army will be extremely passive, so this Ning army must be annihilated.
We must not let him escape!"
Gu Yue also understood this truth. The key was that he could not trust Ning Ren. What if Ning Ren deliberately framed his own side and led his own surprise soldiers to death?
While everyone was talking to each other and arguing endlessly, Wang Kai, the lord of Qingyuan City, was brought close by a tasseled general.
Wang Kai looked like he was in his forties. He was only wearing a white prison uniform and was tied up. His face was unkempt and there were bruises at the corners of his eyes. Tang Yin knew clearly that he was Wang Kai, but he still pretended to be so.
Asked: "Who are you?"
There was no answer. Although Wang Kai's arms were tied, he was full of momentum. He spread his legs slightly, turned sideways, glanced sideways at Tang Yin, and then closed his eyes again.
"Be bold!"
Seeing that Wang Kai dared to be so rude to the king, the Feng soldiers on the left and right stepped forward one after another, raising their fists to hit him. Tang Yin let out a sigh, waved his arms to the left and right, asking them to retreat, and then his eyes fell again.
On Wang Kai's face, he said with a smile: "I am Tang Yin."
No matter how arrogant Wang Kai was and how much he looked down on Feng Jun, he couldn't help but be shocked when he heard Tang Yin's name. He opened his eyes and looked again at the young man wearing black brocade clothes sitting in the middle of the hall.
Handsome young man. It turns out that this is Tang Yin. I never expected that the rumored Tang Yin, who was murderous, cruel, cunning and cunning, turned out to be just a young boy in his twenties.
"Are you the Wind King Tang Yin?" Wang Kai called Tang Yin by his name without fear.
The expressions of the Feng soldiers and generals on both sides changed again when they heard this, but before anyone came forward, Tang Yin had already smiled and replied without any care: "Yes, it's me! Your Excellency is..."
"I am the lord of Qingyuan City in Ning State, Wang Kai!"
"Oh! It turns out to be Mr. Wang, whom I have admired for a long time!" Tang Yin stood up, walked around the table, walked up to Wang Kai, stretched out his hand to untie the rope on his body, and said at the same time: "I have known you since I was in Feng Kingdom.
Mr. Wang has heard something."
I don't know if Tang Yin's words are true or false. He is only a small city lord, and his reputation can be spread to the Feng Kingdom? Even the Wind King Tang Yin knows about it? Wang Kai felt incredible. He watched as he untied the rope with his own hands.
Tang Yin, he shouted coldly: "Tang Yin, don't waste your efforts anymore. No matter what you want to ask me, I have only one answer, I don't know!"
Tang Yin asked with a smile: "What do you think I want to ask you, Mr. Wang?"
"This..." These words really stopped Wang Kai. He was just the city lord of Qingyuan City, so he knew Qingyuan well. However, now that Qingyuan had fallen into Feng Jun's hands, he was of no use to Tang Yin.
the value of.
Seeing that Wang Kai was at a loss for words, Tang Yin changed the subject and said with a smile: "Master Wang, I have an unkind request. I wonder if Master Wang can accept it."
"No!" Wang Kai refused immediately without even thinking about it.
Tang Yin didn't care about his answer at all, as if he didn't hear it, and continued: "I want to appoint you as the head of my Dafeng Hedong County. What do you think of it, Your Majesty?"
What? Asking himself to be the head of Hedong County of Feng Country? Wang Kai simply doubted whether his ears heard it wrong. How could Tang Yin be so thick-skinned? When did the Hedong area become his Feng Country’s, and he still had the nerve to ask for it?
As the county chief, Wang Kai's nose was almost crooked with anger. He yelled at Tang Yin and cursed: "Tang Yin, you are such a shameless thief..."
