The four Shangguan brothers are all outstanding talents.
The boss's name is Shangguan Yuanji. He is a well-known local tycoon in Pingyuan County. He is very talented and has a huge fortune. He is remarkable both in terms of ability and conduct, and it is hard for anyone to fault him. The conditions in Pingyuan County are harsh, and there is a greedy person above him.
The life of the garrison was very difficult, but Shangguan Yuanji made great efforts, donating money and food without asking for anything in return, and was deeply respected by the officers, soldiers and people.
The second oldest is named Shangguan Yuanrang. Among the four Shangguan brothers, he is the most mysterious and his whereabouts are also erratic. It is said that he is one of the gods and possesses rare spiritual martial arts talents. He is a lunatic who practices spiritual martial arts. He has been away from home for many years, wandering around.
Specially looking for spiritual martial arts masters to compete. It is said that he has never been defeated in the martial arts competition. Whether it is true or not, Shangguan Yuanrang's spiritual martial arts cultivation is indeed at a level that is unmatched by others.
The third oldest Shangguan Yuanwu and the fourth youngest Shangguan Yuan Biao are twins. They have been restless since they were young. They like to gather in groups to fight and cause trouble everywhere. When they grow up, their temperament does not change, and they even get worse and even become bandits.
A large number of desperadoes gathered together and became highway robbers. However, the two brothers rarely killed anyone. They only robbed passing merchants, and they were very principled not to rob the whole thing, but only half.
The officers and soldiers of Pingyuan County also thought about encircling and suppressing these two brothers, but both of them were spiritual martial arts masters, and ordinary people could not control them. In addition, his brother Shangguan Yuanji had been greatly supporting the officers and soldiers, so the two brothers were attacked.
Brother, the officers and soldiers just turned a blind eye and let them go as long as they didn't do too much.
I don't know why the two brothers went crazy this time. They suddenly decided to attack the officers and soldiers, and even met Tang Yin who wanted to die.
"Shangguan Yuanji funded our army. That is his credit. Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao should not be let go because of this. When you return to Hengcheng, the first thing you do is to get rid of these two brothers. I don't want to be in my
There is banditry within our jurisdiction!" Tang Yin's tone was unacceptable.
"Yes! Mr. Tang!" Zhang Zhou grinned bitterly and agreed bravely. Putting aside Shangguan Yuanji's reputation, Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao's spiritual martial arts alone were enough to give him a headache.
With his abilities, it would be too difficult, or even impossible, to subdue these two brothers.
Seeing the bitter look on his face, Tang Yin shook his head and sighed, Zhang Zhou may be a good person, but he may not be a good general.
This kind of person is a typical worthless person who is a pity to abandon but cannot be reassured if he is kept by his side.
The prosperity of Shunzhou is one level worse than that of Yancheng, while the prosperity of Hengcheng is several levels worse than Shunzhou.
Hengcheng is not big, but it is not small either. It can be considered a medium-sized city.
Tang Yin and others entered Hengcheng during the day. Even on the main road, there were not many passers-by. Many shops on both sides of the road were closed. Even if they were open, looking inside, there were only a few customers. The entire city
It is lifeless and gives people a lifeless feeling.
Pingyuan County has been attacked by the Morpheus Federation all year round. Even Hengcheng has been besieged several times, and twice the city was breached by barbarians. The county guard was killed, and the barbarians massacred and looted the city. This caused great damage to the city.
Well, if you want to cultivate yourself back to the way you were in your heyday, you not only need a stable environment, but also a lot of time.
There were many people greeting Tang Yin, most of them were officials from Pingyuan County, and there were also some wealthy local businessmen.
Tang Yin paid special attention to these wealthy households. He looked carefully and saw no unusual people among them. Then he asked Zhang Zhou in a low voice: "Is the Shangguan Yuanji you mentioned here?"
Zhang Zhou glanced around, shook his head, and said, "Sir, Shangguan Yuanji is not coming."
"What a big show!" In fact, Tang Yin didn't care if anyone came to greet him, but he was particularly concerned about Shangguan Yuanji. Now that everyone else was here, he was the only one who hadn't arrived, which made him feel a little neglected, and he felt uncomfortable in his heart.
Not very happy.
"Master Tang!"
A young general strode out from the crowd, came to Tang Yin's horse, bowed and saluted, and said loudly: "My subordinate Bai Yong is currently the commander of the Second Corps of Pingyuan County. I have met Mr. Tang here!"
Bai Yong is much younger than Zhang Zhou, and looks to be only two or three years older than Tang Yin. He is tall and strong, and handsome in appearance. Before he raises his hands and feet, he is full of heroic spirit, which makes people like him.
It turns out that he is Bai Yong! Tang Yin still knows something about his important subordinates.
He nodded with a smile and said, "General Bai, you're welcome." As he spoke, he waved his hand, indicating that Bai Yong didn't need to be polite.
Bai Yong straightened his body and looked at Tang Yin. After looking at it, he also nodded secretly. Tang Yin was born with a smile, and he looked like he was smiling. He seemed to be friendly, but his eyes were sharp and sharp, and he had a formidable aura.
Wild and evil, one could tell just by intuition that he was no ordinary person. Moreover, Bai Yong had already heard about his power over Yu He in Shunzhou and admired him endlessly.
He said sternly: "Master Tang brought back a large amount of supplies from the county and the city, which solved the urgent needs of the army. On behalf of the soldiers of the Second Corps, I would like to thank Master Tang!" As he spoke, he raised his hands and gave another deep salute.
Tang Yin looked up and smiled and said: "General Bai is so polite. Before I was appointed as the county governor, I also served in the army. All officers and men in the army are brothers. Now that I have come to Pingyuan County, I naturally want to be a brother of Pingyuan County."
We strive for the greatest benefits, which is also my responsibility."
His words moved Zhang Zhou, Bai Yong and the soldiers in Pingyuan County below. With such a county guard, they no longer have to worry about living a hard life in the future.
"Master Tang, Juno, the commander of the Third Corps, is currently in the border town for defense. He cannot escape and cannot see Master Tang. I hope you will forgive me!" Bai Yong explained to Tang Yin on the way back to the county government.
Of course Tang Yin wouldn't mind this matter. He nodded and asked, "Is there a war over there in the border town?"
Border City, as its name suggests, is a border city bordering the territory of the Morpheus Federation. Border City is also the city that is most frequently attacked. The basic garrison there is a corps. This month, the third corps is rotated there for defense.
"I haven't received any news of the approach of a large number of barbarians, but recently small groups of barbarians often appear in the surrounding villages. They seem to be harassing, but they are more like prying." Bai Yong said seriously.
"Oh!" Tang Yin nodded and said casually: "I don't know much about the Morpheus Federation. Can you tell me more about them?"
He was interested in listening, so naturally Bai Yong would not be stingy with his words and immediately started telling him the story.
The Morpheus Federation is a city-state alliance. It is a large alliance composed of multiple city-states. The territory is very vast, even more than twice that of the Feng Kingdom. However, it is very loose internally, and the city-states are not so united. Although there are differences between them,
There will be wars, but there will also be intrigues and conflicts of interest.
The city-state bordering the Feng Kingdom is the city-state of Besa, and all attacks and plunders on the Feng Kingdom originated from this city-state.
The city-state of Besa is one of the largest city-states in the Morpheus Federation. It has a large population, a vast territory, and a strong military. It can be said to have strong soldiers and horses, but Pingyuan County in the Feng Kingdom has suffered greatly.
The most powerful force in Besa is not the infantry, but the heavily armored cavalry. The specialty of Besa is the Pabu horse. This horse is extremely strong and can carry almost twice as much weight as other horse breeds. Because of this, the Besa cavalry can wear thick armor.
Pure steel armor, the war horse can also wear a pure steel robe. Although it is not fast when running, it is like a moving fortress. Long-range arrows cannot hurt them, and close-range attacks are also difficult.
After injuring them, the ordinary soldiers of the Feng Kingdom would not be able to easily split their armor even if they tried their best. This kind of defense had reached a terrifying level.
Once, the Feng Army took the initiative to attack and encountered Besa's heavy armored cavalry head-on. As a result, a regiment of tens of thousands of troops was defeated by only a thousand heavy armored cavalry, resulting in numerous casualties.
Since the war between the two countries, Feng Kingdom has never defeated Bessa's heavy armored cavalry on the battlefield. Even as soon as they hear the opponent's cavalry coming to kill, the soldiers below will feel fear and collapse without fighting.
Listening to Bai Yong's story, Tang Yin frowned. He originally thought that the war in Pingyuan County was unfavorable because his side had few people and many barbarians. But now it seems that he has made things simple. The real gap between the two sides is not just in terms of military strength.
, and have combat effectiveness and psychological fear of the enemy.
Combat effectiveness can be improved through training, but the psychological gap must be restored with a big victory. However, according to Bai Yong, winning against barbarians is not that easy.
He asked: "What do the barbarian soldiers' horses look like? How thick is their armor? Do we have any samples in hand?"
Bai Yong nodded and said, "There are some."
"That's good. I'll send someone to send it over later for me to take a look at."
"Yes! Mr. Tang!" Bai Yong responded with cupped hands.
The scale of the County Sheriff's Mansion is not as large as that of the County Sheriff's Mansion, but it is not far behind. This large house can be called a mansion. It covers an area of large, and there are at least forty or fifty houses inside. In addition, there are also rear
There are gardens, rockeries, lakes and other decorations. There are more than 20 regular servants in the house, and there are also hundreds of guards guarding the house.
In such a big house, Tang Yin has no family members, so he is really not used to living alone. However, there is also an advantage, that is, he does not have to bother to help Qiu Zhen, Gu Yue, Letian and others find a place to live. They can all follow him.
Living together makes it easier to keep in touch.
The city lord of Hengcheng originally wanted to hold a grand dinner to honor him, but Tang Yin refused. In his opinion, the money for hosting the dinner was not as practical as selling two more war horses.
County and city officials were not used to his elusive style of conduct, but the army lieutenants liked and appreciated him very much. It can be said that Tang Yin won the hearts of the Pingyuan County defenders on his first day in office.
military spirit.
From his own perspective, Tang Yin also valued military affairs over politics.
