Chapter 112 "Get up, no need to be polite."
Tang Yin raised his head and said.
"It's an adult," the middle-aged man who called himself Zhang Xuan stood up tremblingly.
Tang Yin picked up the map and asked, "This is your translation."
"Yes" "You can be brutic" "Yes."
Zhang Xuan didn't dare to look at Tang Yin, and lowered his head and whispered.
In Pingyuan County, there are not many people who can speak Besa, and this is not a glorious thing, and they will even be ridiculed and ridiculed by the wind people, and they will be labeled as disloyal to the wind country and join the barbarian state.
Tang Yin glanced at Zhang Xuan deeply and asked, "Why do you speak barbaric?"
"Because because the villain has lived in the barbarian country for ten years."
"Oh," Tang Yin raised his eyebrows.
"Don't get me wrong, the villain did not defect to the barbarians, but was captured by the barbarians and made a slave."
As he spoke, Zhang Xuan stuck out his tongue.
Tang Yin looked at it and saw that there was a big ring mark on Zhang Xuan's tongue, obviously, it was burned by the red-hot iron, even if it was a long time ago, the brand was still clear.
For a person, this is a shame that cannot be washed away for a lifetime.
He frowned and asked, "Are there many of us Fengren who have been caught as slaves in the barbarian state?"
Zhang Xuan swallowed and foamed, nodded in response: "Many barbarians don't treat us as human beings at all, many Feng people were tortured to death soon after being captured, and there are few like me who can escape back to China alive." ” "So that's the case" Tang Yin sighed in his heart, and his hatred for the barbarian state was also deeper.
He put down the map and asked, "Show me where you were taken?"
"It's this," Zhang Xuan pointed to the map and said, "It's called Beastmaster Town." ” Tang Yin looked at the place he was pointing to, it was not too far from the border of the Wind Country, and it should be regarded as the closest town to the Wind Land in the city-state of Besa.
Zhang Xuan said: "This is the military stronghold of the barbarian state, hoarding a large amount of military funds, grain and grass, and it is also a springboard for the barbarian army to invade our country. ” "Oh" Tang Yin's eyes lit up, and he responded faintly, it turned out that there was such an important military fortress hidden near the Wind Country.
Thinking about it, he raised his head, looked directly at Zhang Xuan, and asked, "How many barbarians are stationed in Beastmaster Town?"
"There are about 5,000 to 10,000 people" Zhang Xuan was startled by the cold light that suddenly shot out of Tang Yin's eyes, in front of Tang Yin, he was already scared, and now he was even more frightened and couldn't even speak clearly.
Seeing this, Tang Yin put away the chill in his eyes, smiled slightly, and said in a soft tone: "You don't have to be afraid, as long as the information you provide is accurate, I will reward you heavily."
"Yes, yes, yes" Zhang Xuan agreed again and again, and said: "My lord, even if you borrow a few more guts from the villain, the villain will not dare to lie to you, what I said is what I have seen with my own eyes, and it is absolutely true, but I have fled from Beastmaster Town for a while, and I don't know how many defenders there are now." ” "It doesn't matter."
Tang Yin's eyes rolled and he waved his hand absentmindedly, the plan to sneak attack Beastmaster Town had been brewed in his mind.
After a while, he lowered his head again, pointed to the map, and asked, "This is the capital of the city-state of Besa."
"Yes, my lord, this is the city of Besa."
"There are several countries of the size of the city-state of Besa in the Commonwealth of Morpheus" "This" Zhang Xuan grinned, he didn't know how many city-states Morphis was made up of, he scratched his hair and said: "I don't know how many city-states there are, but I know that the city-state of Besa is the largest and strongest of all the city-states, and it plays a pivotal role in the Morphis Federation." ” "In this way, conquering Besa is equivalent to conquering Morphis," Tang Yin asked curiously.
"This should be about the same," Zhang Xuan replied ambiguously.
Unable to ask anything of value from him, Tang Yin said with a smile: "Zhang Xuan, you have a place to live now" "The villain lives in the west of the city."
"En" Tang Yin nodded and said, "I don't think you need to go back, you can stay in the county guard mansion in the future."
"Ah" Zhang Xuan was taken aback, wondering if Tang Yin's implication was to kill him.
Even Lotte and Ai Jia next to them frowned secretly, unable to understand what Tang Yin's intentions were.
"Adults spare their lives" Zhang Xuan fell to his knees in fright, and said in a loud voice: "The villain's words are true, there is no falsehood, adults are aware of it, adults are aware of it."
Tang Yin sighed, and said dissatisfiedly: "I didn't want to kill you, what are you begging for?"
After a pause, he said again: "I asked you to stay in the county guard mansion because I wanted you to teach me the Besa language, as for the salary, it will be calculated according to ten taels of silver per month, and you will be satisfied."
"Ahh When Zhang Xuan heard this, he understood what Tang Yin meant, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, hurriedly got up from the ground, and said repeatedly: "Satisfied, satisfied, as long as the adult asks the villain to do, the villain must have no complaints." ” "Hehe," Tang Yin smiled.
At this time, Aijia asked, "My lord, why do you want to learn barbarian language?"
"Not only do I have to learn, but you also have to learn" Tang Yin Zhengse said: "In the future, we don't know how long the battle with the barbarian state will last, we don't understand the language of the barbarian, how can we understand the opponent, how can we perceive the important information of the enemy, we must remember, know ourselves and the enemy, in order to win a hundred battles."
So Lotte and Ai Jia looked at each other, nodded in unison, and replied, "My subordinates know." ” Tang Yin said: "Especially the two of you, you should learn the barbarian language, and urge your subordinates to be proficient in the barbarian language in the shortest possible time, you two are responsible for the spying on the barbarian state, if you don't know the barbarian language, it is difficult to judge the accurate surname of the information obtained." ” "The adult's lesson is very much" Lotte and Ai Jia secretly stuck out their tongues, and at the same time kept Tang Yin's words in mind.
Tang Yin is right, if you want to spy on the intelligence of the barbarian state, it will be too troublesome if you don't know how to speak barbarians.
Tang Yin beckoned to the housekeeper Tang Zhong, then bowed his head at Zhang Xuanyang and said, "Take him down first, and then help him tidy up a guest room."
"It's an adult" Tang Zhong didn't say much, and after being hired by Tang Yin to be the housekeeper of the county guard's house, he remembered Tang Yin's kindness in his heart, and everything was based on him.
Tang Zhong is an old fritter in the army, he is good at observing words and feelings, and he feels that Tang Yin still has something to say, so he did not go ahead, but let Zhang Xuan go first.
After Zhang Xuan went out, he approached Tang Yin.
Secretly screaming smartly, Tang Yin picked the corners of his mouth, and said in a low voice: "Tang Zhong, keep an eye on this person, don't let him leave the county guard mansion for the time being."

"Understood" Tang Zhong agreed, and then walked out quickly.
Tang Zhong took Zhang Xuan to the front foot and just left, Tang Yin immediately bowed down, carefully checked the map, and silently calculated in his heart, after a while, he pointed to the Beastmaster Town on the map, and said: "This barbarian fortress, we must destroy Lotte and Aijia, my first task for the two of you is to find out all the information about the Beastmaster Town, including the number of barbarians stationed in it, the state of the city defense and the surrounding terrain, as well as how many miles away from my wind land, in short, the more detailed the better, can it be done?"
Without waiting for Lotte to answer, Ai Jia had already replied first: "No problem, my lord, my subordinates will go to investigate in person" Ai Jia said this, Lotte is not good to refuse, the training of his subordinates has not been completed, and he should not take over such an important task, but Ai Jia's promise can only make him accept it hard, he smiled bitterly: "Subordinates obey orders" Tang Yin nodded with satisfaction and said, "After the matter is completed, there will be a lot of rewards, you two can go."
"Farewell to subordinates" Lotte and Ai Jia both bowed their hands and turned to leave.
After the two of them left, Tang Yin was still staring at the map, silently pondering.
If you really want to sneak attack the important town of the barbarian state, the first thing to prepare is the military horse, go on foot, travel a long distance, it is too unrealistic, and it is easy to be discovered by the enemy.
But where are your horses?
Tang Yin was worried about the military horses, but within two days, the good news came that the Ningguo horse merchants arrived in Hengcheng and brought a hundred Ningguo war horses.
Hearing the news, Tang Yin was naturally overjoyed, and walked out of the house quickly with Shangguan Yuanji, who came to report the news.
Outside the gate of the house, there are hundreds of tall horses, all dressed in jujube red, without a single stray hair on their bodies.
Just as Tang Yin was looking around, a middle-aged man walked over with a smile on his face, and under the signal of Shangguan Yuanji's eyes, he walked quickly to Tang Yin, bowed to the ground, and said with a humble and polite attitude: "Your Excellency is Tang Yin Tang Lord, the villain Zhao Fu, a merchant from Mozambique, is here to visit."
Tang Yin first looked at Zhao Fu, and then turned his head to look at Shangguan Yuanji.
Shangguan Yuanji said in a low voice: "This is the friend of Mozambique that I mentioned to my lordship, I have been in contact with me for three years, and he is honest and very reliable. ” "En" Tang Yin smiled at Zhao and said, "Brother Zhao came from afar, he worked hard all the way, please in the house" "Ah, sir, please."
Zhao Fu followed Tang Yin into the mansion and commanded his servants to pull all the horses into the mansion.
Entering the lobby, everyone sat down.
After waiting for the next person to deliver tea, Tang Yin asked with a smile: "Brother Zhao has come all the way here, and the road is peaceful."
"Hehe" Zhao Fu chuckled lightly and said, "Tuo adult, the journey is safe."
As he spoke, he arched his hand to Shangguan Yuanji and said, "Brother Yuanji arranged an entourage for me, and he carried the official document of the Fengguo on his body, so the checkpoints encountered on the road were not subject to too much interrogation. ” "Oh" Tang Yin secretly praised Shangguan Yuanji for being careful and thoughtful in everything.
He asked, "How many horses did you bring this time?"
"Exactly a hundred."
"Then in terms of price" "In terms of price, Brother Yuanji has already talked to me, and I think that one hundred and twenty taels of silver per good horse is a fair price, and my lord thinks it."
How did Tang Yin know how much it would cost to buy a horse in Mozambique, but he understood that the profit of the horse merchant was very high, and if he could keep the price down, he should try to keep it as low as possible, not to mention that his side was expanding the army, and he urgently needed money, so he could save it He smiled slightly, picked up the tea, pretended to be old and said tentatively: "I have been old friends with General Yingbu, the main general of the overlord, for many years, and as far as I know, the horses of Mozambique are not so expensive." ”:
