Tang Yin turned his back to Shangguan Yuanji, and glanced at the two brothers Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao out of the corner of his eye. As if his face changed, his face returned to an arrogant expression, and he said with a smile: "You two don't need to thank me.
I should also thank you two brothers!"
His words were very polite, but coupled with his expression, they completely changed. It was as if he didn't pay attention to the two of them at all, and didn't even bother to take a second look.
Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao almost gritted their teeth with hatred and looked at each other. The two brothers had a spiritual connection and a tacit understanding. Neither of them spoke, but they had already made up their minds to make Tang Yin pay the price.
Tang Yin clearly felt the strong murderous aura on the two of them. He understood in his heart and secretly laughed, but remained calm on the surface. He turned around and said to Shangguan Yuanji: "Brother Shangguan can take these two away now!"
"This time... I really want to thank Mr. Tang for your noble hand!" Shangguan Yuanji felt grateful and bowed deeply, sincerely thanking him.
Tang Yin waved his hand and said with a slight smile: "Brother Shangguan, you are welcome. To say thank you, I should thank Brother Shangguan for taking care of the soldiers of Pingyuan County over the years."
He was so polite that Shangguan Jiping's impression of him changed greatly. Although Tang Yin was a bit mean when they first met, he was still a kind and righteous person.
Tang Yin looked at the grateful Shangguan Jieping and said, "I hope that Brother Shangguan will think about the agreement I made with Brother Shangguan after he goes back. I sincerely invite you. I believe Brother Shangguan won't let me down, right?"
"This..." Shangguan Jieping was very grateful to Tang Yin, but that didn't mean that he was willing to accept his conditions and do things for him.
Regardless of what Tang Yin is like as a person, this position is not easy to take over. It involves internal affairs, hard work, and slow results. It is difficult to achieve results, but it is easy to do poorly, not to mention that this stall in Pingyuan County is too difficult.
It is difficult to take over, with internal and external troubles, and handling government affairs is ten or a hundred times more difficult than handling military affairs. He now lives a relaxed and comfortable life, and does not want to ask for trouble at all, taking on this laborious and unpleasant job for himself.
Unwilling to accept it, but unable to refuse immediately, Shangguan Yuanji bowed his hand and saluted again, saying: "Of course, after I return, I will consider it carefully and give an answer to Mr. Tang in three days!"
"Well! Then I'll wait for the good news from Brother Shangguan!" Tang Yin smiled confidently.
"Master Tang, I'm going to say goodbye!" Shangguan Yuanji greeted Tang Yin again, and then he left the county governor's mansion with his brothers Guan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao.
As soon as they left, Qiu Zhen, Bai Yong and others gathered around them and asked with puzzled faces: "Sir, why did you let Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao go? It was so hard for us to catch them.
of!"
"That's right! It's easy to change a country, but it's hard to change one's nature. These two brothers are used to being domineering and domineering. They have suffered a loss at our hands this time. They will definitely not let it go. They will definitely look for opportunities to retaliate in the future!"
"Besides, Shangguan Yuanji can't control these two people at all, otherwise how could they become bandits?!"
Everyone expressed their confusion and dissatisfaction with each other.
Tang Yin didn't care, and laughed while listening. After their words came to an end, he said with a smile: "You are all right. Shangguan Jiuping really can't control these two people. They will definitely come back to take revenge. If
If nothing else happens, they will come to your door tonight."
Tang Yin, who has been an orphan since he was a child, has seen the harsh conditions of the world and the dangers of the world. He does not dare to say that his judgment of people is 100% accurate, but he is inseparable. Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao are both upright people who cannot hide their thoughts.
, their hatred for Tang Yin couldn't be hidden at all, it was all shown on their faces. Coupled with their strong personalities, and they were repeatedly humiliated by Tang Yin, it would be strange if they didn't come to take revenge.
He looked relaxed, but everyone around him was startled and said in surprise: "Tonight? Sir, then...then we shouldn't let him go!"
Tang Yin said with a smile: "If we don't let Shangguan brothers go, how can Shangguan Jieping compromise? How can I take these two people for my own use?"
Hearing this, everyone present looked surprised. Originally, they all thought that Tang Yin was trying to win over only Shangguan Jieping, but they didn't expect that he would also plot against Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao. Even Qiu Zhen didn't expect that Tang Yin could plot.
So deep.
Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao are both masters with profound cultivation. If they can be used for their own purposes, they will be of great use. How can Tang Yin not love talents? It's just that these two people are too stubborn and too arrogant to want to be simple.
It was not easy to conquer Shan Shan, so he resorted to the trick of playing hard to get.
Now that he had let the two of them go, and knowing that the two brothers would come back for revenge, he had actually already thought of a countermeasure in his mind.
Tang Yin is very smart, he has always been, and when he starts to think seriously, he is also very scary.
Seeing everyone looking at each other in silence for a long time, he smiled calmly and said: "Even if Brother Shangguan really comes to visit, there is nothing to be afraid of. I have an idea. Let's see if it works."
With that said, he told everyone his thoughts exactly.
After hearing what he said, everyone was surprised at first, and then they all laughed in unison. Tang Yin's idea sounded a bit childish, but it was still a good idea.
Qiu Zhen clapped his hands for the first time and said in agreement: "I think this plan is feasible! It's okay if the Shangguan brothers don't come. If they do come, we will have to take a good look at their embarrassing appearance, haha——"
Everyone nodded and the smiles on their faces turned into evil smiles.
Bai Yong asked slightly worriedly: "Doing this... won't it be dangerous?"
Tang Yin waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry! The cultivation of both brothers has reached the Lingyuan realm. It's not that simple to hurt them both."
"Yes!" Bai Yong nodded thoughtfully, and after thinking for a moment, Fang You smiled and said, "Just do it as adults do!"
"No one has any objections?"
Everyone shook their heads in unison.
When Tang Yin saw this, he smiled and said, "That's good!" After that, he looked at Liu Zhongsheng and Chen Fang and said, "I'll leave this to you two to prepare. You have to move quickly and try not to make any noise."
"Understood!" Liu Zhongsheng and Chen Fang both stood up and left with the order.
When the matter came to an end, Tang Yin changed the subject and discussed military affairs with everyone.
He asked: "Do we have scout horses now that can monitor the movements of the barbarian army?"
Zhang Zhou and Bai Yong looked at each other, nodded and shook their heads.
Tang Yin didn't understand what they meant.
Bai Yong explained: "Our army has scouts, but they dare not step into the barbarian country, let alone monitor the barbarian army's actions."
"Why is this?"
"The land of Morpheus is vast, and we have no idea of the terrain there. Most of the expedition horses sent there never returned. As time went by, we no longer dared to send expedition horses there."
Tang Yin shook his head and murmured: "The barbarian soldiers are well aware of our actions, but we have no understanding of the barbarian soldiers. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you survive a hundred battles. In this situation, how can we possibly compete with them?"
Everyone frowned. While agreeing with his statement, they were also secretly surprised. Tang Yin seemed ignorant of military law, but he could often say such thought-provoking words as "Know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be in danger in a hundred battles."
Little did they know that in Tang Yin's era, this kind of expression had long been used indiscriminately and was almost like a common saying.
Tang Yin continued: "I must be able to understand the movements of the barbarians at all times. Therefore, our scouting horses must not only be many, but also must be trained quickly. No matter how unfamiliar the environment or how dangerous the conditions are, they can
stay alive."
Being born in modern times and being a killer, he understands the importance of intelligence very well. Intelligence is equivalent to eyes and ears. Without intelligence, it means that a person has eyes that cannot see and ears that cannot hear, no matter how powerful he is.
, and can only end up being slaughtered by others on the battlefield.
Zhang Zhou and Bai Yong both had serious expressions on their faces, and both said: "Sir, I will immediately start training the detective horses in the regiment after I return!"
Tang Yin shook his hand and said thoughtfully: "Relying on the scouting horses within each corps alone is far from enough."
There will be no more than fifty scouts in one corps, and the three corps combined can only have 150 people at best, which is far from what he wants. The best way is to establish an independent intelligence agency and directly accept him
command and control.
Thinking of this, he looked around at everyone present.
Qiu Zhen was good at making suggestions, but he liked to be pampered and was not suitable for practical work. Zhang Zhou and Bai Yong were both commanders of the corps. The corps had many affairs and it was difficult to spare time. Although Gu Yue, Li Wei and others were very capable, they were not good enough.
Alert, finally, his eyes fell on Lotte.
After much deliberation, there is no one more suitable to be responsible for intelligence than Lotte.
Lotte is an archer, cold and taciturn yet calm and prudent, with quick reactions and a smart mind. Whether it is insight or carefulness, he is much higher than others. Thinking of this, he smiled on his face and said: "I think
Establish an independent spy force!" As he said that, he looked at Lotte and asked: "Lotte, how about you being the leader of the spy force?"
Lotte was startled for a moment, then immediately stood up and said without even hesitating: "I take the order!"
Since arriving in Pingyuan County, Letian, like Gu Yue and others, has been with Tang Yin all day long and been assigned the title of general, but has no actual responsibility for matters. Now that Tang Yin asked him to be in charge of intelligence, how could he refuse?
As an archer, it was perfect for him to be responsible for spying.
Seeing how happily he accepted it, Tang Yin was also very happy and said: "Letian, the establishment of the spying force is temporarily set at 500 people. You can go to each corps to select the specific personnel. As long as you like it, no matter the official rank."
There is no need to report to me whether you are high or low, you can go to each corps commander to ask for someone."
After hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but take a breath. Such an arrangement would put this newly-decided spying force above all the other corps. This also shows how much Tang Yin attaches importance to it.
