She looked much more haggard than Tang Yin who was going to Pingyuan County.
After sitting down, Wu Mei said sternly: "Tang Yin, when you arrive in Pingyuan County, you must be careful in everything you do. Don't ask for merit, only ask for no faults, and never take the initiative to fight. The Barbarian State is different from the Ning State. Not only is it brave and good at fighting, but it is also cunning.
, there are many generals in Pingyuan County who are ambitious and talented, but every time they take the initiative to attack the enemy, they are defeated, and several county guards are killed due to ambushes."
"Oh!" Tang Yin listened carefully and nodded from time to time.
Wu Mei continued to warn: "Murpheus's cavalry is particularly powerful. They are elusive and erratic, and their combat effectiveness is extremely strong. You must be careful and careful!"
In Tang Yin's impression, the Mo cavalry was also very powerful. He asked, "How does it compare with the Mo cavalry?"
Wu Mei smiled bitterly and said: "The strength of the Mo cavalry is their speed, while the strength of the Morpheus cavalry is their combat effectiveness. If it is a head-on confrontation, the Mo cavalry cannot beat the Morpheus cavalry even with twice the number of people."
."
So powerful! Tang Yin's eyes were dim and he was silent.
Thinking that he was scared, Wu Mei comforted her: "You don't have to worry too much. As long as you stay in Pingyuan County for a while, I will go find you. Her Royal Highness the Princess personally came to mediate. It seems that Mo State has given up on war with our country. Ning Guo must have
I can't hold on for long, I believe the war will be over soon, and then I can spare my time to find you, and then find a way to help you transfer back to the capital."
It felt like in Wu Mei's eyes, Pingyuan County had simply become a place of death. Tang Yin originally wanted to stop her from worrying so much, and was willing to stay in Pingyuan County to serve, but looking at Wu Mei's expectant eyes, he was about to speak.
Swallowed it back.
Who knows what will happen in the future? Regardless of whether the war will end in a short time, it will not be easy for Wu Mei to transfer herself back to Yancheng as long as Liang Xing is in the way.
Unable to bear to dampen her good intentions, Tang Yin said with a smile: "You don't have to force it. Maybe Pingyuan County is not as scary as the legend says. Maybe I will be able to adapt to it soon after I get there."
Wu Mei looked at Tang Yin helplessly and thought to herself: Naive! If Pingyuan County is not terrible, why have six or seven county magistrates been replaced in just ten years?
She didn't want the burden on his heart to be too heavy. Wu Mei smiled and said, "Anyway, just remember what I said. With your ability, it's no problem to defend the city." What she worried about most was Tang Yin's impulsiveness.
After a pause, she stood up and said, "I brought a gift for you. Come out and have a look."
Tang Yin was startled, then followed her outside and asked with a smile: "What is it?"
Following Wu Mei into the courtyard, he immediately saw the war horse led by Wu Mei's attendant.
This horse is completely black, tall and strong, almost larger than an ordinary war horse. Its brown hair is black and shiny, like brocade, and there is not a single stray hair on its body.
What a good horse! Tang Yin didn't know how to recognize a horse, but he could tell that this horse was no ordinary war horse.
Wu Mei said sternly: "It is a purebred Oolong colt, originally from Mo country. I bought it from a businessman from Mo country two years ago. I have never been willing to ride it. Now you are going to Pingyuan County.
I need it more, so I gave it to you!"
Tang Yin looked surprised. A good horse is hard to find. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it. Anyone can tell that this black horse is a good horse. It would be a lie to say that Tang Yin doesn't like it.
But such an expensive gift was hard for him to accept.
He paused for a moment, shook his head and smiled: "I appreciate your kindness, but..."
Before he could finish speaking, Wu Mei rolled her eyes at him with resentment, walked up to the Oolong pony, stroked its brown hair, and said faintly: "Do you still have to be polite to me?"
"Wumei..." Tang Yin rarely called her name. Because of the gap in identity and status, he felt awkward every time he called her. But this time, it sounded so natural.
He is not a fool, nor is he stupid. He can naturally feel her feelings for him, but he cannot sort out his own thoughts.
"You can't die!" Wu Mei trembled a little, suddenly turned around, hugged his waist, buried her pale jade face into his chest, and said softly: "At least before I find you, you must give me
I survived!"
Her tone was still arrogant as usual, but now it made Tang Yin feel even more heartbroken.
If he hadn't met Yin Rou, he believed that he would have liked Wu Mei very much, but now, he was a little unsure.
He couldn't and couldn't bear to lie to her.
Tang Yin stood silently, feeling that the clothes on his chest were getting wet and hot, which were the tears of Wu Mei.
"What's its name?" He didn't know how to comfort her, so he could only change the subject.
"Ruying." Wu Mei lowered her head, took a few deep breaths, and then replied in a barely calm tone, while wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes without leaving any trace.
She looks charming and glamorous, but in fact she is a strong and fierce woman. She doesn't want to show her weak side in front of Tang Yin, let alone let him see her tears.
"Good name." Tang Yin sighed softly. Sensing her pretending to be strong, he suddenly felt heartbroken. He involuntarily raised his arms and wanted to wrap them around Wu Mei's waist, but his hands stopped in the air and ultimately failed to fall.
.
Tang Yin left and went to Pingyuan County to take over the post of county magistrate.
Accompanying him were Qiu Zhen, Guyue, Letian, Li Wei, Liu Zhongsheng, Chen Fang, Ai Jia and hundreds of soldiers.
There were many people seeing him off, and almost all the soldiers from the Second Corps were here. Looking around, he saw a large, dark mass of people.
It's just that Wu Mei didn't come to see her off, which made Tang Yin feel a little disappointed. In addition, he was also very sorry that he didn't find a chance to say goodbye to Yin Rou.
Yin Rou has been connected to the palace since she arrived in Yancheng. Tang Yin has never been able to see her. Although he now has the title of General Zhenbei, he cannot enter and leave the palace at will.
"Have a safe journey, General Tang!"
I don’t know who was the first to shout, and then the soldiers of the Second Corps followed suit and shouted in unison: "General Tang, have a good trip—"
Along with the shouting, many people shed tears.
Tang Yin sat on the horse, looked up and laughed, waved to everyone casually, and said loudly: "Why are you crying? This is not a separation of life and death. We will meet again when we are destined to meet again in the future!" After saying this, he turned the horse's head and raised his head freely.
Whip away.
Upon seeing this, Qiu Zhen and others rode their horses to follow.
Looking at their backs, everyone in the Second Corps stood there for a long time and did not disperse.
Pingyuan County is located in the northeasternmost part of Feng Country, thousands of miles away from Yancheng. It can be said to be extremely remote.
After leaving Yancheng for a long time, Tang Yin slowed down his horse, looked back at the outline of Yancheng in the distance, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Qiu Zhenxing walked to his side and said meaningfully: "We will come back one day."
Tang Yin glanced at him, shrugged, and smiled noncommittally.
The group of them ate and slept in the open without any unnecessary delays on the way. Twenty days later, they arrived at Tianguan.
The geographical location of Tianguan is similar to that of Tongmen. The terrain is steep and the city defenses are also complete. It is an easy-to-defend but difficult-to-attack fortress. However, it is located in the inland of Feng Kingdom and does not have much strategic value. There are not many defenders stationed inside at ordinary times.
After passing Tianguan and heading north, you will reach the boundary of Tianyuan County.
Entering Tianyuan County, the weather is getting colder. Even in broad daylight, the autumn wind blowing in the face is still biting. At this time, everyone's clothes are also much thicker.
Tianyuan County consists of three counties, namely Sanshui County, Chifeng County and Pingyuan County where Tang Yin and others are going.
The county seat of Tianyuan County is called Shunzhou. It can be regarded as the largest and most prosperous city in the entire Tianyuan County. The area is even larger than the capital Yancheng, but the level of excitement is not comparable, and the population in the city is far less than that of Yancheng. But here
The exotic flavor is stronger and the folk customs are more open. From time to time, you can see enchanting and wealthy women on the street.
The chief of Tianyuan County was named Yu He. Although he was Tang Yin's immediate superior, his attitude towards Tang Yin could be described as extremely polite. He went out of the city to greet him personally and welcomed Tang Yin and his party into Shunzhou.
In any case, Tang Yin bore the title of General Zhenbei, and was his subordinate in terms of position, but in terms of official rank, he was not much different from him. In addition, he was personally appointed by King Feng, so Yu He did not dare to show any slights.
Yu He is nearly fifty years old, with a fat head and big ears, and a shiny face. It can be seen that his daily life is excellent.
"General Tang, I have admired my name for a long time, I have admired my name for a long time, haha——" After meeting, Yu He exchanged warm greetings.
He was smiling all over his face, and was secretly surprised in his heart. Tang Yin was much younger than he thought. He looked like he was only in his early twenties. He was named General Zhenbei at such a young age. This seemed incredible to Yu He.
thing.
"Master Yu, long time no see!"
Tang Yin responded lightly.
Yu He welcomed Tang Yin and others into the governor's mansion. After the guests and hosts were seated, he was all smiles and solicitously persuaded Tang Yin to stay: "General Tang Yin has been working hard all the way. I think I will stay in Shunzhou for a few more days to relax!"
Tang Yin smiled indifferently and didn't say much about it. Instead, he asked: "Master Yu, do you know if there is any war in Pingyuan County recently?"
When asked this question, Yu He immediately felt a headache. It was very rare for Pingyuan County to be without fighting all year round. He rubbed his white and fat hands and said with a smile: "It's been pretty good lately, just the past two days."
On the same day, a small group of barbarians attacked a village on the border, killing more than a dozen villagers, but I have not heard of any large-scale attacks."
He spoke in an understatement, as if the death of more than a dozen people was nothing to him, or that he had long been accustomed to it.
"Is it possible to annihilate the enemy soldiers?" Tang Yin frowned secretly and asked in doubt.
"Well..." Yu He looked confused and laughed dryly: "I really don't know this. I don't know much about things in Pingyuan County!"
After hearing this, Qiu Zhen, Guyue, Letian and others standing behind Tang Yin looked at each other, shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
Pingyuan County was frequently attacked. As the county governor, Yu He didn't even try to understand the situation in Pingyuan County. So what did he want to know?
With such a county governor, it would be strange for Pingyuan County to be at peace!
Without checking his achievements, just looking at Yu He's words and deeds, Tang Yin dared to judge that this person was an incompetent person.
He has always lacked patience with such people.
He stood up and said with a smile on his face: "Master Yu, I will continue my journey later, so I won't bother you much in your residence!"
"General Tang is leaving?"
Yu He opened his eyes wide as if he had seen a monster. How could a ghost place like Pingyuan County be as comfortable and peaceful as Shunzhou? He didn't understand why Tang Yin was in such a hurry. He was going to find a job, not in a hurry to reincarnate.
"Get there as soon as possible and feel at ease soon. Mr. Yu, farewell!" After saying that, Tang Yin didn't even look at him, shook his head to Qiu Zhen and others, and strode out with quick strides.
"General Tang, I have prepared a banquet for you..." Yu He looked at his back and shouted.
Tang Yin didn't even look back, he just waved his hand casually as an answer.
"Huh!" After Tang Yin led the people away, Yu He laughed coldly and muttered: "What a boy who doesn't understand the rules, let's see how long you can keep your authority!"
