After chasing the barbarian soldiers for twenty miles, Tang Yin did not dare to continue the pursuit. The territory of the barbarian state was too vast, and the terrain of the barbarian state was unfamiliar to us. If we continued to penetrate deeper, we would be in trouble if we fell into a tight siege by the enemy.
At this time, he stopped and ordered the entire army to stop pursuing and return to the original route.
After hearing this order, Feng Jun, who was in a state of anxiety, all let out a sigh of relief and secretly rejoiced that he could finally return to his own country.
Seeing that even if he won the victory, his soldiers were still afraid of the barbarians and the barbarian territory, Tang Yin stood still and turned around. He looked around at his soldiers with his sword and said loudly: "Tens of thousands of barbarians were killed by less than 20,000 of us."
They threw away their armor and returned in a great defeat. Do you still think that the barbarian soldiers are terrible? A mere ten thousand of us rushed into the huge barbarian territory, and it was as if we were in a deserted land within twenty miles. Do you still think that the barbarian territory is terrible?
? From now on, we will not only prevent the barbarians from entering my territory of Da Feng, but we will also frequently invade their barbarian territories, loot the barbarian money and plunder the barbarian resources, replenish our military resources, and strengthen our Da Feng majesty!"
Tang Yin's words made the Feng soldiers feel energetic and morale high, and their fear of the barbarians was greatly reduced. Everyone was so angry that they raised their weapons and shouted in unison: "Great wind! Great wind! Great wind -"
"Gather the supplies left behind by the barbarians, turn the rear team into the front team, and retreat to the border town!"
Under Tang Yin's order, Feng Jun returned to Fengdi along the same route.
"When the country is in trouble, I should go to war, wrapped in horse leather, to strengthen my glory! Strong wind! Strong wind! Strong wind!" On the way, the wind army sang military songs, with a smile on their face, and returned victorious.
The battle at the border town was crucial to Tang Yin and even the entire Pingyuan County. Tang Yin completely proved his strength with this battle, established his unshakable position in Pingyuan County, and established an unreachable standard as the county magistrate in the past.
It has achieved great prestige and has also won the respect and admiration of the people in the county.
As for Pingyuan County, this battle shattered the myth that the barbarians were invincible, severely damaged the barbarian country's spirit, and also greatly increased its own confidence.
The barbarian soldiers were defeated miserably and left behind countless supplies. Feng Jun went all the way back to the border town to pick them up and loaded more than ten carts. After returning to the border town, the barbarian soldiers left even more supplies here, a huge military camp.
, the barbarian soldiers took away almost nothing, leaving everything to the wind army, including countless weapons, armor, food and grass, and there were hundreds of pabhu horses that they didn't have time to take away.
Tang Yin gave an order to pack all the captured materials into trucks, including Pabuma, and transport them back to Hengcheng for storage. Next, he began to count the prisoners of the barbarians and the bodies of the people on both sides. In the battle of the border town, the Feng Army
More than 3,000 people were killed, and nearly 30,000 barbarians were killed. More than 4,000 barbarians did not have time to escape and were captured alive by the Feng army.
The weak defeated the strong and exchanged huge losses for the barbarians at a very small cost. This was the first of its kind in Pingyuan County.
Putting aside the fact that the Feng army was cleaning the battlefield, Tang Yin led the backbone of the army into the border town.
Only then did everyone take off their spiritual armors. Looking at them again, they all looked as if they had been showered with water. Their clothes were soaked with sweat, including Tang Yin.
Everyone looked at each other, stunned at first, and then burst out laughing in unison. Tang Yin also laughed out loud. He shook the clothes on his body and felt cool and refreshing.
"After this battle, it is estimated that the barbarians will not dare to invade our Dafeng border again in a short time!" Shangguan Yuanbiao said proudly with a smile.
"That's right!" Xiao Muqing continued: "However, we cannot take it lightly. Instead, we should seize the time to train and consolidate the city defense. It is estimated that when the barbarians attack again, a larger army will be used."
His words extinguished most of everyone's joy.
However, Tang Yin nodded his head and praised: "What Xiao Shenjun said makes sense. If you want to be invincible, you must prepare for a rainy day!"
Seeing that Tang Yin also said the same thing, everyone looked at each other, but no one answered.
As soon as I entered the city, I saw the streets were crowded with people from the Feng Kingdom. The joy on people's faces was even greater than that of soldiers who had just won a great victory. People were crowded together, tapping their feet, stretching their necks, all excited.
I want to see Tang Yin and his soldiers first.
Most of these people moved to the border town from Yuanwang Town. When they first heard that the barbarians were coming and killed more than 60,000 people, these people felt that a disaster was coming. They thought that they were dead this time and there would be no survivors.
Possibly, but I didn't expect that the less than 20,000 wind troops defending the city could defeat the enemy and kill the barbarians who came to attack the city. You can imagine the excitement in his heart.
The mayor of the town, Zhong Wen, was the first to walk out of the crowd and meet Tang Yin. He didn't say anything when he got closer. He knelt down with his knees bent. There was still a smile on his face, but he was already in tears. He said in a trembling voice: "There are adults sitting in charge to resist."
The barbarian country is a blessing to my gale, a blessing to Pingyuan County, and even more to the people of Pingyuan!"
Following Zhongwen's words, thousands of people around him knelt down and looked up, and the crowd fell to the ground.
Tang Yin's heartstrings were touched. If when he first took office, he just wanted to fulfill his duties, then now, he is gradually integrating into it, integrating into Feng Country, and integrating into Pingyuan County. He looked around, looking at the people kneeling on the street, in a daze, not knowing what to say.
Something good.
At this time, Qiu Zhen, who was beside him, gently pulled down the lapel of his clothes. Without saying much, he only whispered two words: "People's hearts."
Tang Yin's heart moved and he immediately understood what Qiu Zhen meant. He took a step forward and supported Zhongwen's arms. At the same time, he knelt on one knee and said sternly: "In the past, the barbarians repeatedly invaded the border and were banned repeatedly. They were the officials of the government.
However, due to the incompetence of the government, the people in the county have been harmed and their lives have been ruined. Now that I am the county guard, I will do my best to resist foreign enemies, ensure peace in our strong wind border, and ensure the safety of the people in our county. If I cannot do this, I swear
Such a stake!" As he spoke, Tang Yin stood up and walked quickly to a horse stake on the side of the road. As he waved his wrist, a black light flashed through him. No matter how hard he tried, there was a crisp sound.
The horse stake made of stone broke with a sound, and the cut was as smooth as a mirror.
Wow - upon seeing this, the people on the street were in an uproar.
I don’t know who shouted loudly first: “My lord, you are mighty——”
Immediately afterwards, thousands of people shouted in unison: "My lord is mighty, the wind army is mighty! My lord is mighty, the wind army is mighty -" the shouting continued.
Tang Yin's blood surged when he saw it, and his heart was surging when he heard it. His floating emotions couldn't calm down for a long time. He was not an impulsive person, but at this time, he really had the urge to gallop into the barbarian country.
Seeing the bright look on his face, Qiu Zhen secretly grinned and whispered: "Sir, you want to incite the people, not be incited by the people."
When he was pouring cold water over it, the hot blood in Tang Yin's body was extinguished just as it started to burn. His face turned white and his face was calm. Qiu Zhen, who was still there, smiled bitterly and shook his head, leading people back to the City Lord's Mansion.
.
There is no longer a city lord in the border town, and the mansion has been vacated. Now it just happens to be the place where Tang Yin stays and discusses military affairs.
He sat in the center of the main hall of the mansion, and the generals of the Feng Army sat on both sides.
Tang Yin looked around at his subordinates with a smile and said, "You all have contributed greatly to this victory!"
"Thank you, sir!" Everyone bowed and handed over their hands.
Tang Yin looked at Qiu Zhen and Xiao Muqing with a smile and said, "Master Qiu and Xiao Shenjun contributed the most to defending the enemy in the border city!"
Everyone had no objections and nodded in agreement. Only Xiao Muqing felt uncomfortable after hearing this. It can be said that he was responsible for resisting the barbarian soldiers from beginning to end. If he had not taken over the command and let Qiu Zhen continue to command, the barbarian soldiers would have been killed long ago.
So he broke into the city.
Tang Yin was very smart. Just looking at the disapproving expression on Xiao Muqing's face, he immediately understood what he was thinking. He smiled slightly and said, "Does Xiao Shenjun have any objection to my words?"
"No! I don't dare!" No matter how ambitious and thick-skinned Xiao Muqing is, it is not easy to openly compete for credit in front of everyone.
Xiao Muqing took over the command of Qiu Zhen in the border town and directed the defenders to resist the barbarian attack. Tang Yin also heard about this.
He said quietly: "Xiao Shenjun, if you, as the commander-in-chief of the army, are fighting an enemy and a talented subordinate suddenly asks you for command, will you give up the power?"
"this……"
Xiao Muqing was speechless and hemmed and hawed.
Tang Yin smiled and said: "Not to mention you, even I can't do this, but Mr. Qiu did it. At the most critical moment, I can trust you and delegate power to you, regardless of your mind or courage, Mr. Qiu has done it."
They are all admirable. It is precisely because of Mr. Qiu's prompt decision-making and Xiao Canjun's talent and experience that the border city was saved. So it is not an exaggeration to say that you two have the greatest contribution. Xiao Canjun, what do you think?
"
Xiao Muqing trembled, stood up quickly, bowed and saluted: "Your Excellency, you have taught me a lesson!" As he spoke, he looked at Qiu Zhen again and said seriously: "Your Majesty, Qiu's magnanimity is really admirable to my subordinates.
Ultimate!"
This is what is called changing the rudder when the wind blows. Regardless of whether Xiao Muqing is convinced in her heart or not, at least she shows that she is sincerely convinced.
Tang Yin stopped talking about this matter. Of course he could see Xiao Muqing's ambition, and of course he could feel Xiao Muqing's competitiveness, but he thought it was a good thing. No ambition means no competitive spirit, and no competitive spirit means no competitive spirit.
It means that you have not tried your best. If you lose these two points, no matter how strong your ability or talent is, you will never be able to achieve success in the military.
At this time, Qiu Zhen smiled at Xiao Muqing and said, "Xiao Shenjun is so polite!" He changed the subject and said to Tang Yin: "Sir, now you should immediately send good news to the king, explaining that we defeated the barbarians in the border town.
, kill countless enemies, and use this to claim credit from the royal court!"
Tang Yin rolled his eyes and asked: "If Wang Ting learns about this, what reward will he give? Will he transfer me away from Pingyuan County?"
Now, even if the royal court sends people to ask Tang Yin to leave, he refuses.
Serving as the county guard in Pingyuan County, he became more and more comfortable and comfortable doing the job. The most important thing was that he could cultivate his followers unscrupulously here, and he could go to the battlefield to kill enemies from time to time to improve his cultivation. The entire Feng Kingdom
, or even the entire Haotian Empire, there is no place more suitable for him than Pingyuan County.
