Tang Yin smiled happily, looked at Cheng Jin, and said: "General Cheng will help Miss Xiuwan to investigate together. ("")-
Wan Guan bowed his hand to Cheng Jin and said, "This will trouble General Cheng."
"Master Wanzhuang, you're welcome!" Cheng Jin returned the greeting with an arched hand.
"Your Highness, King Feng, I have an unkind request from you," Wan Guan said to Tang Yin.
Tang Yin said with a smile: "Miss Xiuwan, please tell me something."
Wan Guanzheng said: "The business of Yuexiu Villa is all over the country. Your Highness must also know this. Because of the business relationship, Yuexiu Villa has contacts with many city lords, county heads, and county capitals. In the future, the Feng Army will go south to attack.
At that time, our Yuexiu Villa may also be able to help."
Yo! This was something Tang Yin didn't expect. His eyes lit up at first, but soon returned to normal. He asked with a smile: "Didn't Miss Xiuwan always say that she didn't want to participate in the national war? Why did she suddenly want to help our army again?
Already?"
"First, His Highness has been so kind to the little girl, and the little girl has nothing to repay, so she can only help brother Feng Jun. Secondly, the assassination of His Highness this time has also made the little girl feel something!" Wan Guan's expression was sad.
said.
"Oh?" Tang Yin asked curiously: "I wonder, Miss Xiuwan, can you tell me what you think?"
"Someone wants to harm our Yuexiu Villa!" Wan Guan's eyes narrowed and he said quietly: "This time the Fengjun invaded in large numbers. The imperial court and many wealthy businessmen and wealthy families moved to the south. Only my Yuexiu Villa remained untouched. There must be many people
They all suspected that I, Yuexiu Villa, had an affair with Feng Jun and held a grudge. Last night, His Highness was assassinated in our village. Regardless of whether it was successful or not, I, Yuexiu Villa, could be put in jail. It could be said that I killed two birds with one stone. Instead of sitting around and waiting for others to harm me.
, it is better for me to help Your Highness destroy Huan in one fell swoop!"
Ha! After hearing her words, Cheng Jin and even Tang Yin had to look at her differently.
Tang Yin blinked and asked: "Then why didn't Miss Xiuwan just express her feelings to the Huan State Court, or simply join forces with the Huan State Court to deal with our Feng Army? Why did she join forces with our Feng Army to fight against the Huan State Court?
Miss Xiuwan is from Huan!"
Wan Guan looked at Tang Yin's suspicious eyes and said firmly: "Yuexiu Villa has only one purpose in doing things, which is to succeed. Knowing that it will fail, but insisting on going its own way is not Yuexiu Villa's doing. ""What's more, King Huan is narrow-minded,
Once suspicion arises about Yuexiu Villa, no matter what Yuexiu Villa does in the future, it will never dispel King Huan's doubts. Even if Huan Guo succeeds in fending off the enemy this time, Yuexiu Villa will suffer from it in the future."
Tang Yin was startled for a moment, then he threw his head back and burst into laughter, saying: "Miss Xiuwan is really quick-thinking. Your 'unkind invitation' is exactly what Fengjun needs right now. I have to thank Miss Xiuwan this time."
You!"
"His Highness has killed the little girl! His Highness is open-minded and thoughtful, which makes the little girl feel heartbroken. This is one of the reasons why the little girl is willing to follow His Highness." Wan Guan said with his hand in hand.
"Haha!" Tang Yin laughed again, rubbed his hands and said, "Miss Xiuwan praised me so well, which makes me at a loss what to do."
Cheng Jin also laughed beside him. At least to him, what Wan Guan said was from the bottom of her heart. He could not have imagined that such a bad thing as an assassination would eventually lead to this result.
Yuexiu Villa has a huge business network and personal connections in the Huan Kingdom. If it is willing to assist Feng Jun, it will undoubtedly make Feng Jun even more powerful. In the future, attacking cities and plundering territory will become twice the result with half the effort.
Tang Yin was in Daxing and did not want to go south yet, but he could not afford to delay the war. After the new troops sent from the rear arrived in Daxing, Liang Qi and Ziying both asked Tang Yin for orders to lead their troops south.
Since Huan's main central army had been completely wiped out, and the Huan's court, which had fled to Lutai, was unable to assemble a decent army in a short period of time, Tang Yin felt that the next battle would be easy, so he was not in a hurry to follow the army south.
The Sanshui Army and the Tianying Army were ordered to take the lead, and the troops were divided into two groups, heading south from Pingning and Danyang counties and heading straight for Lutai.
In order to cooperate with the Feng Army's actions, Lingshuang sent out the second and third main legions of the Yu Kingdom to form a four-pronged army advancing hand in hand with the Feng Army, not giving the Huan Kingdom any chance to breathe. The Holy Temple
Soon, news came from the Pingyuan Army, the Directly Affiliated Army, and the Baizhan Army that entered Huan State from An State. Originally, after entering Huan State, these three armies planned to go directly south and attack Lutai, but I heard that Bai Qing's troops of An Army were still trapped.
In Fengyang, Xiao Muqing temporarily changed his mind and led the army to march westward to Fengyang to relieve Bai Qing's troops from being trapped.
By the time the Pingyuan Army, the Directly Affiliated Army, and the Baizhan Army arrived in Fengyang, the An Army had been here for more than two months, more than seventy days. Not to mention the casualties suffered by the An Army during these more than seventy days,
Thirty percent of the residential houses in the city alone have disappeared.
Those were not burned down, but demolished. The wooden rolling stones stored in Fengyang City had long been used up. In order to resist the Sichuan army outside the city, An Jun could only demolish the houses in the city, use the door panels as shields, and destroy the houses.
The beams are regarded as rolling logs, and the bricks and tiles are regarded as pounding stones.
The difficulty of the battle and the tenacity of the An army's resistance can also be seen from this.
After Xiao Muqing's army arrived, they immediately started a head-on confrontation with the Sichuan army outside Fengyang City.
In terms of military strength, the Feng Army had an absolute advantage. In terms of physical strength, the Sichuan Army, which had besieged Fengyang for more than two months, was also depleted of men and horses. This battle was a fierce battle between the two sides, and ultimately ended in a major defeat for the Sichuan Army.
After the defeat, the Sichuan Army fled all the way south. Xue Rong also wanted to flee to Danyang County and regroup. However, at this time, the four armies of Feng and Yu split up and headed south. Danyang County was in danger, with low morale and greatly damaged Sichuan Army.
After establishing a foothold in Danyang County, Xue Rong had no choice but to order the retreat south again.
During the retreat of the Sichuan army, the order from Sichuan King Xiao Xuan was passed on to the army. He first transferred back the leaderless Blood Guard Battalion. After a few days, he ordered Xue Rong to gather his own soldiers and return the entire army to Sichuan.
At this point, Sichuan State's plan to aid Huan State ended in complete failure. The 400,000 Sichuan troops that originally reinforced Huan State had now returned to Sichuan State's mainland, with more than half of them lost.
Without the support of the Sichuan Army, Huan Guo was defeated faster. Feng Guo's Pingyuan Army, Sanshui Army, Tianying Army, Directly Affiliated Army, Bai Zhan Army, Jade State's Second and Third Army, and An Guo's Bai Army were defeated.
Qing's troops are now advancing southward, and the spearheads of the various armies are pointed directly at Lutai.
Not to mention that Huan Guo's central army has been wiped out. Even if the main force is still there, it can't withstand the fierce attack of so many armies from Feng, Yu, and An. At this point in the war, Huan Guo has fallen into a comprehensive disadvantage, and life and death hang on a thin line.
On the other side, the Sichuan Army fighting in Anguo has also lost its previous unstoppable momentum. Although the Anjun army that has regained its fighting spirit is still in a comprehensive passive defensive position, it has been able to effectively prevent the Sichuan Army's advance and firmly block the Sichuan Army in the south of Anguo.
The balance of victory is tilting more and more towards one's own side, and Tang Yin, who is in Daxing, is naturally full of joy. The war is not over yet, and the Huan Kingdom court is still there, but Tang Yin has already started to form a new court in Daxing.
The so-called new imperial court was actually an extension of the Fengguo imperial court. Tang Yin set up the post of Chief Inspector of Huandi in Daxing, and Guo Tong, the right minister of the imperial court, came forward to hold this post concurrently.
On the surface, Guo Tong was directly loyal to the current emperor Yin Zhun, and Huan Di was taken back into the hands of the emperor. In fact, Guo Tong had already been bribed by Tang Yin. With Tang Yin following his lead, the person he was loyal to was no longer Yin Zhun, but
It's Tang Yin.
In this battle against Huan, Feng, Yu, and An all sent troops, so after Huan was destroyed, Huan's territory should be divided equally among the three kingdoms. However, Tang Yin did not want to spit out the fat that had entered his mouth.
He recruited officers Yuan Ji and Qiu Zhen to accompany Guo Tong and rushed to Daxing. He also needed to have a good discussion with them on how to carve up Huan Di.
That day, in the evening, Tang Yin had just had dinner and was about to go for a walk in the garden. Ah San came in to report that Cheng Jin and Wan Guan wanted to see him.
These days, Cheng Jin has been investigating the assassin's accomplices at Yuexiu Villa. Today he and Wang Guan came together. It must be that the matter has been resolved. Tang Yin raised his head and said, "Let the two of them come in to talk."
Ah San agreed and turned around to go out. Not long after, Cheng Jin and Wan Guan both walked in.
"My little girl has met your Majesty!" Cheng Jin and Wan Guan bowed their hands and saluted.
Tang Yin waved his hand and asked with a smile: "Presumably, the investigation of the assassin has been concluded?"
"Your Majesty, your Majesty is wise, there are indeed results!" Cheng Jin responded, then turned his head and shouted in a deep voice outside: "Bring him in!" Following his words, two secret agents pushed a man in his early thirties into the room.
Tang Yin looked at the man curiously and asked puzzledly: "Who is this..."
Before Cheng Jin could speak, the man knelt on the ground with a plop and said in a trembling voice: "This little man Zhang Biao is the guardian of Yuexiu Villa."
"Oh!" Tang Yin did not ask further, waiting for him to continue.
"His Royal Highness Feng Wang, Lu Chong and Chen Yang also came to see the villain before they assassinated His Highness, asking the villain to act with them..."
Tang Yin waved his hand, interrupted Zhang Biao, and asked: "Who are Lu Chong and Chen Yang you are talking about?"
Cheng Jin explained from the side: "They are two of the three assassins who assassinated the king."
"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded, and then said to Zhang Biao: "Keep talking."
"At that time, the two of them said that the owner of the village...the owner of the village was shameless and knelt down to the Feng people. He was a traitor to the country. It was rare that the Feng King lived in the village this time. We could just take the opportunity to eliminate the big trouble for Huan Guo. It was successful.
It's good, even if it doesn't succeed, you can still blame the owner of the village and use the help of Feng Ren to help Huan Guo."
While talking, Zhang Biao also glanced at Wan Guan who was standing aside. He continued: "However, the owner of the village is very kind to the villain. The villain really couldn't bear to do anything to harm the owner, so he refused on the spot.
Both of them."
"Haha!" Tang Yin sneered and asked: "Since you already knew that the two of them had the intention to assassinate, why didn't you report it in advance?"
