The An army all evacuated Yujing, which somewhat surprised Tang Yin. Such a large county was located in the center of Kawaguchi County. The An army would give up if they said they would. Do they have the determination to fight to the death with their own side?
Tang Yin was confused as to what the opponent's plan was, but it was a good thing after all that he could occupy Yujing without using a single soldier or a single shot.
Tang Yin immediately ordered that the Ninth Army be stationed outside the city and the new army be stationed inside the city. He himself also led the generals of the Feng Army into Yujing.
It cannot be said that there were no casualties when the Feng army occupied Yujing. After all, when Qi Heng led the heavy cavalry into the city, he trampled to death and injured many local people. After Tang Yin entered the city to learn about the situation, he immediately had people post notices to inform those innocent people.
His main purpose was to compensate the injured people to appease the An people. No matter what tricks the An army was playing, it was always right for our side to consolidate the territory after occupying it.
In the county capital, after Tang Yin finished handling some trivial matters, he asked Letian and Ai Jia: "Do you two know where the main force of Anjun has gone now?"
Letian and Ai Jia both shook their heads. Some time ago, the spies from Tianyan and Diwang had focused their attention on the investigation of Chigou, but had ignored the Anjun movements in Yujing.
Seeing that the two of them could not answer, Tang Yin frowned and said, "Let's go and check. Within five days, I must know where the main force of Anjun is!"
Lotte and Aijia's faces straightened up, and they hurriedly raised their hands and said, "Yes! Your Majesty! I will send someone to investigate right now!"
"Yes!" Tang Yin waved to them, then tapped his forehead and murmured: "Where did An Jun escape to..."
Soon, Tang Yin's questions were answered. Within five days, both Tianyan and Diwang sent back news that all the An troops in Yujing had withdrawn to the junction of An Di and Sichuan, and were now stationed in Guankou City.
Guankou City is an important border town in Anguo, and it is also the most important gateway from Anguo to Sichuan State. The location of Guankou City is quite special. It is adjacent to Muye Mountain on one side and Heitou Mountain on the other. It is right between the two mountain ranges.
Makuno Mountain and Kuito Mountain are fifty miles apart, with fifty miles of plains between them, and Sekiguchi Castle is located in the middle of the plains. It can be said that Sekiguchi Castle is not steep, and there are no natural dangers to rely on, but its location
Extremely important.
It has always been used as a military fortress by Anguo. It is not only tall and well-defended, but also has a large number of troops stored there for many years. Now, almost all the local troops of Kawaguchi County are gathered here.
Based on the intelligence detected by the Sky Eye and the Earth Network, it can be deduced that the number of defenders in Guankou City is close to 100,000, among whom are a large number of remnants of the Anguo Central Army.
A small border town in Andi seemed insignificant, but Tang Yin could not ignore it.
Guankou City failed to completely block the passage between Andi and Sichuan Kingdom, but it was located exactly in the center of this passage. It was like a nail nailed here. In the future, whether the Feng Army went south to attack Sichuan Kingdom or the Sichuan Army
Going north to attack Feng State requires such an important strategic location. Of course Tang Yin will not give up. No matter how many An troops are stationed there and how difficult the city is to attack, he will still have to do his best to keep it firmly in his hands.
superior.
Having a premonition that the battle at Guankou City would be difficult in the future, the Ninth Army and the New Army led by Tang Yin were stationed in Yujing for a long time. At the same time, he sent a message to the Pingyuan Army and Tianying Army attacking Hengshui and Zhuyang Counties.
, hurriedly mobilized the two armies and rushed to Kawaguchi County for a final battle with the An army stationed in Guankou City.
Tang Yin led his army all the way to Yujing and captured most of Kawaguchi County. Now looking at the entire battle, he suddenly discovered that the main force of the An army had never fought a head-on confrontation with his own side.
The battle between the two sides has always been dominated by the Feng army, while the An army retreated and used harassment and ambush tactics to delay the attack.
In the past, he still couldn't understand why An Jun wanted to delay. Now, he roughly understood An Jun's intention. The other party was buying time to defend the pass city. More than 100,000 troops were stationed in it, and it was not known how long the war would last.
There are too many things that Anjun needs to hoard. In addition to food, grass and armaments, there must also be rolling logs, stones and medicines needed to defend the city. It will naturally take time to hoard these in large quantities. Think about it, this is
The main reason for the An army’s delaying tactics.
It can also be seen from this that the Anjun who retreated to Guankou City planned to stay here for a long time, and Tang Yin also had his reasons for mobilizing the Pingyuan Army and the Tianying Army to rush to Kawakou County.
It is estimated that it will take at least a month for the Pingyuan Army and the Sky Eagle Army to arrive at Yujing. During this period, the Ninth Army and the New Army can just fill in the new troops and replenish their respective supplies.
Tang Yin only stayed in the county capital for a few days before he couldn't stay any longer. On this day, he took Asan, Asi, and Yin Lan with him, dressed in casual clothes, and wandered around the city.
Yujing is a county town, and its area and prosperity are second to none in Kawaguchi County. Because of its border with Sichuan Province, there are many businessmen with Sichuan accents in Yujing City.
Tang Yin and the others came out very early and caught up with the market in Yujing East City. There were many vendors on both sides of the street and people were coming and going on the road, making it very lively.
He and Ah San and Ah Si just looked around and didn't buy anything. However, Yin Lan bought a lot of gadgets, with a smile on her face.
After walking out of the market, Tang Yin looked up and saw a restaurant right in front of him. He patted his stomach and said with a smile, "I'm hungry after shopping for a long time. Come on, let's go get something to eat."
Ah San, Ah Si, and Yin Lan nodded in unison, and followed Tang Yin as they walked to the restaurant. This restaurant has a large facade and is spacious inside. It is divided into two floors, and two courtyards at the front and back.
Tang Yin and others went up to the second floor and found a seat by the window and sat down. Asan and Asi sat opposite Tang Yin and Yin Lan. One person looked out the window and the other looked around. Even if the ground was peaceful, the two of them would not dare to
Too careless.
After Yin Lan sat down, her face was still full of excitement. She put all the things she bought aside. However, Tang Yin glanced at her with a smile and secretly laughed, "Woman..." Then he turned to look at the street outside the window.
"Sir, An Di's things are exquisite. Even an ordinary bamboo hairpin has lifelike birds carved on it." Yin Lan praised happily and handed the bamboo hairpin to Tang Yin's eyes like a treasure.
The latter took it with a smile, took it in his hand and looked at it. He felt that the carving was very good, but he was not too interested. He said casually: "If you like it, buy more. If you don't have enough money, just put it in my account."
alright."
When Yin Lan heard this, the light in her eyes became brighter, but she immediately sighed like a frustrated rubber ball and muttered: "Young Master should have told you earlier, the market is closed now, and I still have a lot of things I like that I don't dare to buy.
!”
Tang Yin didn't mind her complaints and said with a smile, "Then wait until tomorrow to buy it."
"Yes, thank you sir!" Yin Lan smiled from ear to ear and nodded repeatedly.
While talking, the waiter brought the food to the table. Tang Yin and others had just started to use their chopsticks when a group of diners came up from below. As these people appeared, Ah San, Ah Si, and Yin Lan all became vigilant in unison.
Even without insight, they can feel the spiritual pressure emanating from the other party, and the spiritual pressure of the other party will cause a strong sense of oppression and suffocation. They are obviously spiritual martial arts masters.
Although they were lowering their heads to eat, Ah San, Ah Si, and Yin Lan were also looking at each other secretly. There were five of them in total, one was younger and the other was older. The other one's face was covered by a black veil, so his appearance could not be seen.
After seeing clearly the appearance of the young man among them, Ah San, Ah Si, and Yin Lan were all startled. It wasn't that he was too weird, but that he was too handsome.
This young man's face is as white as jade, with not even a spot to be found on his face. He has a pair of sword-shaped eyebrows, thick but not heavy, flying diagonally into his temples, giving him a heroic appearance. His big eyes below are like two gems, crystal clear and bright.
He has a spirit, a high nose, and light red lips. He is such an outstandingly handsome man that anyone who sees him can't help but take a second look.
As for the three elderly people, although they look different, they all give people a gloomy feeling.
Ah San and Ah Si looked at them for a moment, then looked away, and then both looked at Yin Lan opposite them. Seeing that she was still staring at the handsome young man, they looked at each other and smiled. Ah Si teased in a low voice: "Miss Lan is the one who caught my eye.
Is there someone else?”
Yin Lan came back to her senses, raised her head, curled her lips slightly, didn't say anything, just snorted coldly.
Seeing Yin Lan's eyes clearly, Ah San and Ah Si were both stunned. There was no obsession in her eyes, but full of hostility. They were quite surprised that she had just come to eat, and she didn't bother her.
If you mess with her, how can she become hostile?
Tang Yin also felt something strange about Yin Lan. Originally, he had no interest in these five people. Regardless of whether they were spiritual cultivators or not, as long as they didn't offend him, they had nothing to do with them. It was just Yin Lan's rejection of them that caught his attention.
.
He turned his head and looked at the five people. The handsome young man was startled for a moment, then nodded politely to Tang Yin with a smile.
Tang Yin also thought to himself what a handsome young man he was. He raised the corners of his mouth, smiled, and nodded in response.
The handsome young man was a very warm-hearted person. When he saw Tang Yin responding to him, he immediately stood up, walked forward, held his hands with a smile and asked: "Brother, are you a native of Yujing?"
Before Tang Yin could speak, Yin Lan had already stood up, stood in front of the handsome young man, and stared at him coldly.
Seeing this, the handsome young man hurriedly bowed his hands to Yin Lan and said with a slight smile: "Young lady, you must be polite."
Yin Lansheng didn't say a word, still staring at him with cold eyes.
Tang Yin secretly shook his head, gently pulled down Yin Lan's sleeves to signal her not to be nervous, and then said to the handsome young man, "I've come from afar too."
