Tang Yin smiled slightly and looked at Qiu Zhen. The latter understood what he meant and explained his battle plan to Cheng Jin and the others in detail.
After he finished speaking, the four of them figured out what was going on. Cheng Jin was silent for a moment and said, "Sir, I'll go with you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiaxi, Jiang Mo, and Ao Qing also expressed their willingness to follow Tang Yin to Yuanwang Town.
Tang Yin shook his head happily and said: "I would like to thank you all for your kindness in advance, but I don't think this trip is dangerous. On the contrary, I think the border town is the real dangerous place. I looked at the previous battle cases and found that the barbarians always fought quickly and fiercely.
We pay attention to quick battles, so if we attack Border City, we will use all our strength. I am really unsure whether Border City can withstand the opponent's first round of attacks, so I hope the four of you can stay and help Border City.
A helping hand for the defenders."
Cheng Jin thought for a moment and felt that what Tang Yin said might make sense. He changed the subject and settled for the next best thing, saying: "Sir, I think so. Ao Qing and I will follow you to help you, Jiaxi
He and Jiang Mo stayed in the border town to help the defenders defend themselves against the enemy!"
He finally found a place to stay because he was sincerely afraid that something might happen to Tang Yin. If he couldn't go there in person, he would not be at ease anyway.
Seeing the urgency in his eyes, Tang Yin couldn't refuse anymore and nodded: "Okay! You and Ao Qing will go with me." As he spoke, he looked at Ao Qing again and asked: "What if you
If you don’t want to go with me, there’s no need to force me.”
Ao Qing is the only woman among the four, but her temperament is very strong, no less than that of the men. She said seriously: "I am willing to go with you, sir."
"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded and said, "Okay, let's set off tomorrow morning." As he said that, he looked at Qiu Zhen and said in a deep voice: "Xiao Zhen, I'll leave the border town to you. No matter what, without me,
Before we come here, we must not let the barbarian soldiers step into the city!"
"Sir, please rest assured, I will do my best." Qiu Zhenzhen replied, and then added: "Sir, you should also be careful."
"I know." Tang Yin patted Qiu Zhen on the shoulder. He cherished his first friend in this world very much. If there were others who could be reused, he would never leave Qiu Zhen in this dangerous place in the border town.
The next day, Tang Yin set out for Yuanwang Town. Accompanying him were the Shangguan brothers, Cheng Jin, Ao Qing, and two thousand elite soldiers carefully selected from each legion.
As the people of Yuanwang Town moved into the border town, the town has become an empty town. In broad daylight, the town is empty, like a ghost town. Walking into it, people naturally feel a sense of coldness.
Soldiers who are familiar with the environment here will lead the way. As Xiao Muqing said, almost every household in the town has a hidden cellar or tunnel. Some can accommodate dozens of people, and some can even accommodate hundreds of people. Two thousand officers and soldiers hid in batches.
The cellars and tunnels are still very spacious.
First, let the soldiers hide separately, and then Tang Yin personally went out to inspect and picked out those cellars or tunnels that were relatively not concealed enough. In the end, only twenty places were kept, and then the officers and soldiers were divided into twenty groups and stationed in them respectively. Then he cautiously
I did another inspection to confirm that there was nothing wrong, and then I felt relieved.
Worried that his traces would be exposed, Tang Yin ordered his subordinates to be strictly prohibited from going out. Anyone who resisted the order, regardless of the reason, would be punished according to military law.
Tang Yin's own tunnel is located in the center of the town. The entrance is not hidden, but the location is excellent. No matter where the officers and soldiers have an accident, he can rush to the rescue as soon as possible. In addition, the tunnel's exit leads directly to the outside of the town.
Hiding inside, you can sneak outside the town at any time and observe the enemy's movements.
It was dark inside the tunnel, and you couldn't see your fingers. At this time, the advantage of the dark spirit martial arts was realized. Tang Yin, Cheng Jin, and Ao Qing could all vaguely see things in the tunnel, while the Shangguan brothers who were with them became blind.
Blind, the two of them sat in the corner of the tunnel, motionless.
Sensing their discomfort, Tang Yin took out the small oil lamp he had prepared and lit it. Although the light was weak, the slightest light in the dark tunnel seemed precious. The Shangguan brothers were all refreshed.
, they both sat down in front of the small oil lamp. Perhaps because of the light, Shangguan Yuanbiao started talking more.
"Sir, when do you think the barbarians will come?"
Tang Yin shrugged, leaned back, and said, "God knows! Maybe it will be one or two days later, or it may be five or six days later."
"Then we just keep waiting here?"
"What's the problem? The food we brought is enough to last half a month."
"But... we can't just keep waiting like this?! If the barbarians never come, can we keep waiting?"
Tang Yin said: "Ten days! Let's wait here for ten days. If we still don't see the barbarian invasion after ten days, then we will go back home."
"Ten days!" Shangguan Yuanbiao muttered, then sighed softly and muttered: "Just hold it in here for ten days!"
Tang Yin smiled and said: "If the barbarians attack tomorrow, then we can go back tomorrow."
Shangguan Yuanbiao chuckled and said: "I really hope that the barbarians can come here soon!"
When it was noon, Ao Qing took out the dough and dried meat from the package she had brought, handed them to Tang Yin, and said softly: "Sir, let's have something to eat!"
Tang Yin thanked him and took it, tore off a piece of dried meat and asked curiously while eating: "Ao Qing, how old are you this year?"
Regardless of whether it is modern or ancient times, it is too direct to ask a woman's age. Ao Qing was stunned for a moment, and replied without any coyness: "Twenty."
"How many years have you been practicing Lingwu?"
"Three years!"
"Only three years?" Tang Yin was surprised. It seemed that Ao Qing's cultivation level was not weak. He could use Shadow Drift skillfully and at least reach the spiritual realm. He had cultivated to the spiritual realm in only three years, so he was considered a spiritual martial arts wizard.
. He smiled and praised: "Yes, if you practice diligently, your future cultivation will be limitless."
Being praised like this, Ao Qing's face suddenly showed excitement, and her jade face turned red. She asked curiously: "How long have you been practicing dark martial arts?"
This question made it difficult for Tang Yin to answer. He could say a few months, decades or even hundreds of years. He smiled softly and said vaguely: "It's not long, it's not short.
."
Perhaps she has experienced too many things. Ao Qing has a maturity that is inconsistent with her actual age. Seeing that Tang Yin was unwilling to answer directly, she did not ask further questions and instead said with some envy: "Sir, you can be a dark spiritual cultivator."
It is not easy to sit in the position of county governor."
"Haha!" Tang Yin was amused by her words and waved his hand and said, "Actually, I didn't do anything. I only got the position of county magistrate because of my connections as a dancer."
It is not a secret that he has a good relationship with the dancer. It is also said that he became famous because of his family background as a dancer. However, it is not easy for the person involved to say this in an understatement. This also makes Ao Qing and
Cheng Jin couldn't help but look at him with admiration.
When he said this, Ao Qing felt that what she had just said was a bit rude. She said seriously: "Your Excellency, you are too modest. If you are really of mediocre ability, no matter how much the dancers promote you, you will still find it difficult to achieve anything, and you will not be able to do anything now."
Stay in this tunnel!"
Tang Yin was amused by her again, and nodded secretly in his heart. She was such a smart and flexible girl. After talking, he had a great impression of Ao Qing. Similarly, Ao Qing and Cheng Jin also admired him and became more determined to stay.
Do things around him.
Cheng Jin, who had always been silent, suddenly said: "I don't think you are willing to be the guardian of only one county!" His words were mostly probing. He wanted to find out how ambitious Tang Yin was, which would also determine his future efforts.
More and less.
Tang Yin's eyes were clear and he looked directly at Cheng Jin.
When he focused his eyes, his eyes were bright and evil, as if they had turned into reality, giving the person he looked at a burning feeling.
Cheng Jin was no exception. Under Tang Yin's sharp gaze, he unconsciously lowered his head and avoided looking at him.
After a moment, Tang Yin raised the corner of his mouth, looked away with a smile, and still did not answer directly, but said: "Times make heroes. Even if I can't become a hero, I don't want to be a mediocre bear who is greedy for life and afraid of death."
His words were not obscure. Cheng Jin could naturally hear the meaning of his words. His eyes lit up and his spirits were lifted. He whispered: "As long as you are ambitious, your subordinates will fight for it even if they risk their lives."
Help me!"
"I'm very happy that you can say that. Since you are willing to put your life in my hands, I will definitely let it shine."
"grown ups……"
"It's too early to talk about this now. The top priority is the troubles faced by the barbarians." Tang Yin's eyes gradually became darker. He served as the county magistrate of Pingyuan County. The Morpheus Federation was a sharp sword hanging above his head. Can the barbarians be eradicated?
The country's troubles are crucial to one's future.
But how can we eradicate the troubles of the barbarians? Even if we can really defeat the barbarians this time, who can guarantee that the other party will not attract more troops to retaliate? Even if we can still defeat the opponent then, then the next time, and the next time...
How to deal with the attacks and attacks of...? As he served as the magistrate of Pingyuan County for longer and longer, the issues he considered became more and more profound.
For now, the troubles of barbarians are the deepest and most serious problem that troubles Tang Yin.
Seeing Tang Yin's frown gradually deepening, Cheng Jin said: "The troubles caused by barbarians cannot be solved by fighting. The only way is to seek peace!"
"Seek peace?" Tang Yin raised his eyebrows. In his mind, asking for peace meant surrender, and he would never tolerate such a thing happening.
Before he could speak, Shangguan Yuan Biao couldn't help it anymore. He clenched his big fist, slammed the ground, and roared angrily: "Fart! Let's ask for peace from the barbarian country. It's better to kill us directly."
