Chapter 125 If you only deal with one Beastmaster Town, it is acceptable, but if there are Barbarian Towns nearby, this operation is too risky.
Seeing the look of surprise and worry on everyone's faces, Tang Yin smiled and said: "You don't need to worry too much, General Le has already found out that the town is more than fifty miles away from the Beastmaster Town, and there is Xiao Join's army leading the army to intercept and kill halfway, not to mention that the barbarians in the town can't get the news of the attack on the Beastmaster Town, even if we know, when they come, we will already return victorious."
Everyone is not as optimistic as Tang Yin, and they always feel that the implementation of this battle is too risky, and if they are not careful, Tang Yin and the others will have to be trapped in the barbarian state and the whole army will be annihilated.
Tang Yin didn't give them a chance to interject at all, and turned his head to Cheng Jin and said: "General Cheng, you lead the dark arrow to go with me, you don't need to break the formation and kill the enemy, just stop the fleeing barbarians outside the town."
Cheng Jin has recently been more and more trusted and reused by Tang Yin, and his status in the army has also been improved, even if an old man like Zhang Zhou sees Cheng Jin, he is polite to him.
Hearing Tang Yin's instructions, Cheng Jin had no objections, didn't say a word, and intervened to give a salute: "Subordinates obey orders" Tang Yin is not afraid that he will not be able to defeat the Beastmaster Town, what he is most afraid of is that the barbarians will flee to the towns in the northwest, attract reinforcements, and arrange hidden arrows to stop and kill the barbarians outside the city, which is the first layer of insurance, and arranging Xiao Muqing to set up an ambush ten miles away is the second layer of insurance.
After arranging everything, Tang Yin looked around at everyone and asked, "Do you still have military affairs to discuss?"
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.
Seeing this, Tang Yin nodded and said, "If there is nothing to do, you can please go back, and the matter discussed today must not be leaked."
"My subordinates understand," everyone replied in unison.
"In addition," Tang Yin said, "after the commanders of the corps go back, each of them will select a thousand soldiers with the best riding skills. ” "It's an adult" Of the five corps commanders in Pingyuan County, only Bai Yong is not there, and he is now stationed in the border city.
At this time, Tang Yin's strict requirements for the training of the soldiers were rewarded, and the plain army was tens of thousands of people, basically all of them knew how to ride, and they were cavalry when they got on their horses, and they were infantry when they got off their horses, and it was easy to select soldiers with excellent riding skills.
"You can go back."
"It's a subordinate who retires" Everyone left one after another, each going back to prepare, Qiu Zhen did not leave, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.
Not knowing what was going on with him, Tang Yin asked curiously, "Is there something wrong?"
Qiu Zhen was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Your Excellency's sneak attack on Beast King Town this time, the war horse you brought should have more than you want."
"Oh" Tang Yin didn't understand why Qiu Zhen said this, starting from the border city, it was only more than a hundred miles to the Beastmaster Town, such a close distance, it seemed that there was no need to bring a spare war horse.
Qiu Zhen explained: "Beast King Town is a place where barbarian materials are hoarded, and there will definitely be no shortage of things inside, if the adults directly burn it, it is a pity, if you can bring back some of it, it can also fill our army's arsenal."
This is a fact, but there are so many war horses in Mo, there is no surplus, if you want to bring spare war horses, you must reduce the number of personnel, three thousand people to fight the Beast King Town is risky enough, if it is weakened, the risk is even greater, so Qiu Zhen is saying that this matter seems very difficult.
Tang Yin didn't expect this, after being reminded by Qiu Zhen, his heart suddenly moved, and he secretly said Yes, how could he forget about this, the barbarians can plunder the materials of Pingyuan County, so why can't he plunder the materials of the barbarians If he doesn't loot it this time, wouldn't it be too wasteful of this opportunity He looked up and smiled, and praised: "What you say makes sense, it seems that I can't take 3,000 brothers with me, only 2,000 brothers, and I will bring 1,000 empty horses to pull its barbarian supplies."
Qiu Zhen was worried about this, and he hurriedly said, "But my lord, isn't two thousand brothers too little?"
The loot is small, but the destruction of the Beastmaster Town is big, adults should think twice."
Tang Yin said nonchalantly: "There are only three thousand barbarian soldiers, what's so terrible If necessary, I can take 1,500 brothers to go."
Qiu Zhen was shocked when he heard this, he understood Tang Yin's temper, he could really do what he said.
Qiu Zhen shook his head again and again, and hurriedly said: "A thousand empty horses are enough, and the barbarians don't have so many supplies for us to pull."
"En" Tang Yin also thought so, he said with a smile: "If you can really get back the materials this time, I have to reward you heavily."
Qiu Zhen smiled bitterly, now, he just wants Tang Yin to return safely.
As Tang Yin said, within three days, Zhao Fu transported the Mozambican war horse.
There were 4,000 war horses, a large number, and it was impossible to pull them all into the city, temporarily send them to the Fengjun barracks outside Hengcheng, and distribute them to the commanders of each corps for inspection.
Tang Yin did not owe the money for the war horse, and asked people to withdraw 320,000 taels of silver from the silver treasury and hand it over to Zhao Fu.
This is the first time that the two sides have bought and sold, and the cooperation is very pleasant, and after confirming that the war horses are correct, Tang Yin ordered two thousand horses from Zhao Fu.
However, this time Zhao Fu could not deliver the goods in a short time, and the four thousand war horses had already asked Zhao Fu to take out all the stored horses, and it was not so easy to gather another two thousand, but fortunately, Tang Yin was not in a hurry, so he would slowly gather them after he went back.
As soon as the war horse arrived, Tang Yin was ready to leave for the border city, and Xiao Muqing, who was responsible for ambushing and killing the barbarians, had already led a thousand cavalry to take the lead.
That night, the two thousand cavalry were also prepared, just waiting for Tang Yin's order to go to the border city.
Prefectural Castle.
Tang Yin was sorting out his clothes and armor in his room, when there was a knock on the door outside the room.
"Recently," Tang Yin replied without raising his head.
The door opened, and Fan Min approached from the outside.
Tang Yin was stunned for a moment and asked, "Miss Fan Min has something?"
"I heard that the adults are going to go to the barbarian state" Fan Min's face showed a rare look of worry.
I don't know who told Fan Min about this, Tang Yin smiled lightly and said, "It's just a small battle" Fan Min shook his head and said, "If it's just a small battle, why should the adults go there in person?"
Her words made Tang Yin speechless.
He shrugged, picked up his armor, and put it on his body.
Fan Min walked behind him and helped him tighten the rope buckle on his armor, while asking in a low voice, "Is this battle dangerous?"
Unexpectedly, Fan Min would care so much about himself, Tang Yin's heart warmed, and he turned his head sideways and said: "If the crockpot is not broken from the wellhead, the general will inevitably die in battle."

On the battlefield, anything can happen, so there is no question of whether there is danger or not.
"No matter how big or small, any battle is risky, and if you really meet a master, even if there is only one person, the life of the main general may not be saved.
Fan Min's heart shrank suddenly, and she whispered, "I hope that the adults can return victoriously without incident."
Tang Yin turned around, met Fan Min's gaze, paused for a moment, his eyes were crooked, he smiled sincerely, and said, "Borrow your auspicious words."
After speaking, he pulled the armor on his body to confirm that there was no problem, and then the smile on his face gradually changed to a cold sneer, and said quietly: "Don't worry about me, what you really need to worry about are those brutes who are going to be attacked by me" After speaking, he glanced at Fan Min deeply, and said casually: "Let's go" While speaking, he had already strode out.
Looking at the back of Tang Yin's departure, Fan Min's mood fluctuated, and it was difficult to calm down for a long time, in fact, even she couldn't tell herself, she hoped that Tang Yin would come back safely because she cared about him, or was she afraid that she would lose her shelter and the protection of the county guard.
Tang Yin, accompanied by the two Shangguan brothers, went out of Hengcheng and went to the border city with the 2,000 cavalry waiting outside the city, plus 1,000 empty horses that were unridden.
The speed of the war horses of the Mo country is indeed amazing, although the border city is not far from Hengcheng, but it is definitely not close, the war horses of the wind country have to run for half a day, and Tang Yin set off at night and arrived at the border city in only three days.
Here in the border city, in addition to the guard Bai Yong, there are also Xiao Muqing, Cheng Jin, Lotte, Ai Jia and others who arrived first.
After the meeting, Tang Yin didn't even get close to the city, but just gathered everyone outside the city.
He silently calculated the time, if he set off from the border city now, it should be seven or eight o'clock in the morning to arrive at the Beastmaster Town, it is the time for breakfast, due to the lack of preparation of the barbarians, it should also be the time when the other party's defense is relatively lax, and it is a good time to start.
He looked around at Cheng Jin, Xiao Muqing, Lotte, and Ai Jia, and said, "We can't stop in the border city, we have to leave immediately."
Everyone nodded in unison and responded, "Your Excellency, just give the order."
Tang Yin really ordered: "General Le took Xiao to join the army to the ambush site, General Ai took me to the Beast King Town, General Cheng walked with me, you don't understand anything."
"There is no one who does not understand adults" "Okay, let's go now" Tang Yin raised his head to everyone, then turned over and rode on his war horse.
Seeing this, everyone did not delay for a moment, and mounted their horses one after another, followed Tang Yin, directly through the border city, and rode their horses straight into the territory of the city-state of Besa.
The Feng army has never dared to take the initiative to invade the territory of the barbarian state, this concept is deeply ingrained in the hearts of the Feng people, and the same is true for the barbarians.
Entering the territory of the city-state of Besa, it is as if you are submerged in an endless sea of grass, and running forward ten miles is the grassland, twenty or thirty miles is still the grassland, there are no towns, no villages, no people, some are just grasslands, boundless, as if there is no end, this is of course the main characteristic of a vast and sparsely populated country.
Without the guidance of Lotte and Aijia, even with a map in hand, Tang Yin would probably have been unable to find the exact location of Beastmaster Town.
No wonder the Wind Army did not dare to enter the territory of the barbarian state, such a large grassland, rashly approached, without fighting the enemy, he had to get lost in it first.
The Mozambican war horse is known for its speed, and the territory of Besa is mostly grassland, a horse is flat, there are no rugged mountain roads and paths, which can allow the Mozambican war horse to get room to play, the war horse throws off the four hooves, the speed is so fast, it really seems to be galloping, four thousand war horses gallop together, from a distance, it seems that a whirlwind blows.
The time to arrive at the Beastmaster Town was much faster than Tang Yin expected, he thought that he would arrive at seven or eight o'clock in the morning, but when he actually arrived, the sky was slightly bright, and it was almost close to six o'clock at this time, that is, the middle hour
