Chapter One Hundred and Eight Chasing and killing the barbarians for twenty miles, Tang Yin did not dare to continue the pursuit, the territory of the barbarian state is too vast, and his own side is also very unfamiliar with the terrain of the barbarian state, and if he continues to go deeper, it will be troublesome if he falls into the heavy encirclement of the enemy army.
At this time, he stopped his steps and ordered the whole army to stop the pursuit and return the way it came.
Hearing this order, the wind army in their hearts all sighed, secretly glad that they could finally return to their own land.
Seeing that even after winning the victory, his own soldiers were still afraid of the barbarian soldiers and the barbarian territory, Tang Yin stood still, looked around at his own generals with his sword, and said loudly: "Tens of thousands of barbarian soldiers, who were killed by less than 20,000 of us, lost their armor and returned defeated, do you still think that the barbarians are terrible The huge barbarian territory, our tens of thousands of people broke into it, and it was like entering a no-man's land within twenty miles, do you still think that the barbarian territory is terrible After that, we not only have to prevent the barbarians from stepping into my windy territory?
On the contrary, we will often invade the territory of their barbarian states, loot the barbarians' money, plunder the barbarians' resources, replenish our military resources, and strengthen our might."
Tang Yin's words, the wind army who spoke directly was full of energy, their morale was high, and their fear of the barbarians was greatly reduced, and everyone was boiling, raising their weapons high, and shouting in unison: "Gale gale gale gay" "Collect the materials left out by the barbarians, change the rear team into the front team, and withdraw to the border city" Under Tang Yin's order, the wind army returned to Fengdi the same way.
"The country is in trouble, I should go to war, the horse leather shroud, strengthen my majestic wind and strong wind" On the road, the wind army sang military songs, with a smile on his face, and returned victorious.
The battle of the border city was very important to Tang Yin and even the entire Pingyuan County.
Tang Yin completely confirmed his strength in this battle, and also established his unshakable position in Pingyuan County, and established a prestige that could not be achieved by the previous routine county guard, and also won the respect and worship of the people in the county.
As for Pingyuan County, this battle broke the myth of the invincibility of the barbarian soldiers, severely damaged the spirit of the barbarian state, and at the same time greatly increased the confidence of its own side.
The barbarians were defeated, the materials and baggage were innumerable, the wind army went all the way back to the border city to pick up, and loaded more than ten cars, and after returning to the border city, the barbarians left more materials here, the huge military camp, the barbarians almost did not take away a thing, all left to the wind army, among which the weapons, armor, grain and grass are countless, and there are hundreds of Pabhu horses that have not had time to take away.
Tang Yin gave an order, packed all the seized materials into trucks, and transported them back to Hengcheng for storage along with Pabu Ma, and then began to count the prisoners of the barbarians and the corpses of the people on both sides.
In the battle of the border city, the wind army lost more than 3,000 people, while the barbarians lost nearly 30,000 people, and more than 4,000 barbarians did not have time to escape and were captured alive by the wind army.
Defeating the strong with the weak, and exchanging huge losses from the barbarians at a very small price, this is also a precedent in Pingyuan County.
Leaving aside the wind army's cleaning of the battlefield for the time being, Tang Yin led the backbone of the army into the border city.
It was only at this time that everyone dispersed the spirit armor on their bodies, and when they looked at them again, they all seemed to have been drenched in water, and the clothes on their bodies had already been soaked with sweat, including Tang Yin.
Everyone looked at each other, first stunned, and then laughed in unison.
Tang Yin also laughed out loud, he shook the clothes on his body, feeling cold and refreshing.
"After this battle, it is estimated that the barbarians will not dare to invade my windy border again in a short time," Shangguan Yuanbiao said with a smile.
"That's right" Xiao Muqing continued: "But we can't take it lightly, on the contrary, we should seize the time to recruit troops, train, and consolidate the city defense, and it is estimated that when the barbarians attack again, a larger army will be used." ” With one word, he poured out most of the joy of the people.
However, Tang Yin nodded his head and praised: "What Xiao Senjun said makes sense, if you want to be undefeated, you must take precautions first."
Seeing that Tang Yin also said the same, everyone looked at each other, but no one answered.
As soon as I entered the city, I saw that the streets were crowded with the people of the Wind Country, and the joy on people's faces was greater than that of the soldiers who had just won a great victory.
Most of these people moved from the original hope town to the border city, at first I heard that the barbarians were killed, and the number exceeded 60,000, these people all had a sense of great disaster, thinking that this time they were dead, and there was no possibility of survival, but they did not expect that the defense of the city was less than 20,000 wind troops but broke the enemy soldiers, and the barbarians who came to attack the city were killed, and the excitement in their hearts can be imagined.
The mayor of the town, Zhongwen, took the lead in coming out of the crowd and greeted Tang Yin, but before he got closer, he knelt down on his knees, with a smile on his face, but he was already in tears, and said in a trembling voice: "Having adults in town and resisting the barbarians is my blessing to the wind, the blessing of the plain county, and the blessing of the people of the plain."
With Zhongwen's words, thousands of people around him also knelt down, raised their eyes, and the crowd fell down.
Tang Yin's heartstrings touched, if he just wanted to be loyal to his duties when he first took office, then now, he is gradually integrating into it, into the country of wind, into Pingyuan County.
He looked around at the people kneeling down the streets, stunned, not knowing what to say.
At this time, Qiu Zhen, who was beside him, gently pulled down his shirt and didn't say much, only whispered two words: "People's heart." ” Tang Yin's heart moved, and he immediately understood what Qiu Zhen meant, he took a step forward, while holding Zhongwen's arms, he also knelt on one knee, and said: "In the past, the barbarians repeatedly violated the border, and they were repeatedly prohibited, it was the fault of the government, the government was incompetent, and the people in the county were affected, and the lives of the people were ruined, and now I am the county guard, and I will do my best to resist foreign enemies, keep my windy border peaceful, and keep the people in my county safe, if you can't do this, I swear to be like this" Between speaking, Tang Yin stood up and walked quickly to a horse stake on the side of the road, Between the swings of his wrists, the black light flashed, and he didn't see how hard he worked, but there was a crisp click, and the horse stake made of stone broke in response, and the incision was smooth like a mirror.
Seeing this, the people on the streets were in an uproar.
I don't know who shouted first: "Your Excellency is mighty" Immediately afterwards, thousands of people shouted in unison: "The Lord is mighty, the Wind Army is mighty, the Wind Army is mighty, the Wind Army is mighty" The shouts continued and continued.
Tang Yin's blood surged when he saw it, and his heart was surging when he listened, and 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 ride his horse and whip up and enter the barbarian state.
Seeing the radiant expression on his face, Qiu Zhen grinned secretly and said in a low voice: "My lord, you want to encourage the people, not be encouraged by the people. ” When he poured this basin of cold water urgently, the hot blood in Tang Yin's body was just about to start burning, and it was extinguished.
He turned white with Qiu Zhen, who was calm and the old god was there, shook his head with a wry smile, and led people back to the City Lord's Mansion.
The border city no longer has the position of city lord, and the mansion has also been vacated, and now it has become the place where Tang Yin stayed and discussed the affairs of the military aircraft.
He sat in the center of the main hall of the mansion, and the generals of the Wind Army sat on either side.
Tang Yin smiled and looked around at his subordinates and said, "You are all responsible for this victory."
"My lord has won the prize," everyone bowed their hands in unison.
Tang Yin looked at Qiu Zhen and Xiao Muqing with a smile, and said: "The border city resists the enemy, and Lord Qiu and Xiao have the greatest credit to join the army."
Everyone had no opinion, and nodded in agreement, only Xiao Muqing felt uncomfortable after hearing it, it can be said that he commanded the barbarians from beginning to end, if he hadn't taken over the command and let Qiu Zhen continue to command, the barbarians would have broken through the city a long time ago.
Tang Yin was so smart, just looking at the disapproving expression on Xiao Muqing's face, he immediately understood his thoughts.
He smiled slightly and said, "Xiao Senjun has no objection to my words."
"Don't be a subordinate and don't dare" No matter how ambitious Xiao Muqing is and how thick-skinned he is, it is not good to compete for merit in front of everyone.
Xiao Muqing took over Qiu Zhen's command in the border city and commanded the defenders to resist the onslaught of the barbarians, and Tang Yin also heard about it.
He said faintly: "Xiao joins the army, if you are the chief general in the army, when you are fighting against the enemy, and a talented subordinate suddenly asks you for command, you will give up the power."

"This" Xiao Muqing was speechless and hesitant.
Tang Yin smiled: "Don't say it's you, even I can't do this, but Lord Qiu has done it."
At the most critical moment, I can trust you and delegate power to you, whether it is mind or courage, Lord Qiu is admirable, and it is precisely because of Lord Qiu's quick decision and Xiao joining the army that your talent and experience keep the border city alive, so it should not be an exaggeration to say that you two have the greatest credit, Xiao joined the army, what do you say?"
Xiao Muqing was excited, hurriedly stood up, bowed and said: "The master teaches the most important lesson" As he spoke, he looked at Qiu Zhen again, and said: "Lord Qiu's bearing is really admired by his subordinates."
This is called turning the rudder when you see the wind.
Regardless of whether Xiao Muqing is convinced or not, at least it shows that he is happy and convinced.
Tang Yin didn't say much about this matter anymore, Xiao Muqing's ambition, of course he could see it, Xiao Muqing's competitiveness, of course he could feel it, but he thought it was a good thing, no ambition is equal to no competitiveness, no competitiveness is equivalent to not doing his best, losing these two points, no matter how strong his ability and how talented he is, it is difficult to become a great weapon in the army.
At this time, Qiu Zhen smiled at Xiao Muqing and said, "Xiao is polite to join the army" As he spoke, he changed his words and said to Tang Yin: "My lord, now you should immediately send good news to the royal court, explaining that we have defeated the barbarian soldiers in the border city and killed countless enemies, so as to invite merit to the royal court."
Tang Yin's eyes rolled and asked, "If the royal court learns about this, what reward will it give me, will it be necessary to transfer me out of Pingyuan County?"
Now, even if the royal court sent someone to ask Tang Yin to leave, he would not be.
The most important thing is that he can unscrupulously cultivate his henchmen here, and he can go to the battlefield from time to time to kill the enemy and improve his cultivation, the entire Wind Country, and even the entire Haotian Empire, there is no place more suitable for him than Pingyuan County
