Chapter 161 A stable environment, a huge population, and thriving commerce are all the basis for increasing the level of prosperity, and now Tianyuan County has these three things.
With the increase in foreign merchants, the local people gradually came to their senses, abandoned their prejudices, and increased their contacts with the city-state of Besa.
Trade is reciprocal, Tianyuan County sells the specialties of the Wind Country to Besa, returns the specialties of Besa, and then resells them to other counties and counties after returning, earning a huge price difference, and the same is true of the city-state of Besa, selling the specialties of the Wind Country to the people of the interior or reselling them to other neighboring countries, making more profits.
Pingyuan County, which was once devastated by the war and was known as the worst county in the Windy Country, is now the most prosperous, not only Hengcheng and the border towns are overcrowded, but even the original ordinary towns have quickly prospered, and the streets are full of Besa people who come to the Windy Country to do business and travel here.
The prosperity of commerce and trade brought huge revenues to the county's finances, but Shangguan Yuanji did not dare to forget his roots, that is, agriculture, agriculture is the foundation of everything, without agriculture, everything is a floating cloud.
Without food, it is equivalent to having no army, and without an army, there will be no ability to protect oneself, and if we cannot protect ourselves, the peace and prosperity in front of us will only be a flash in the pan.
Due to the profitability of doing business, many farmers in the county abandoned their land to do business, and Shangguan Yuanji allocated a large amount of gold and silver from the county treasury to reward agriculture and maintain the continuity of agriculture in the county.
At this time, Shangguan Yuanji's talent for internal affairs was thoroughly brought into play, he foresaw accurately, knew how to judge the situation, and adjusted policies in a timely manner, so that the development of Tianyuan County would be stable, and there would be no balance between various industries.
Asking for money and money, and having food and grain, provided the most powerful support for Tang Yin's large-scale army expansion.
Even Tang Yin, who later said it, admitted that seventy percent of his achievements were due to Shangguan Yuanji, and without him, he would not have been able to raise such a large and powerful army.
The army of the Ning State fought with the Feng army in Yancheng for three months, and it was only then that Tang Yin was ready to actually send reinforcements.
At this time, the Tianyuan army was fully established and had a neat manpower, with a total of 230,000 people, of which the Plains Army, which had the strongest combat power, accounted for 100,000, the Sanshui Army and the Chifeng Army each accounted for 50,000, and the directly subordinate army had 30,000.
In the future, the army gradually moved south, and batch after batch of Tianyuan troops continued to drive out from various counties and gather at Tianguan, Tang Yin and the generals under the command of Qiu Zhen also left Shunzhou and went to Tianguan.
Tianguan is not small, but at this time, the gathering of more than 200,000 troops still seems narrow, there are barracks and tents everywhere inside and outside the pass, and wind troops wearing black leather armor can be seen everywhere.
Tang Yin did not plan to stay in Tianguan for more, he wanted to leave 30,000 soldiers to guard his home, and he commanded 200,000 troops to go directly to Yancheng.
At this time, when he was discussing the march route with Qiu Zhen and others in the camp, a soldier outside recently reported that Shunzhou had received a flying pigeon from Yancheng and sent it to Tang Yin for a look.
Tang Yin was very strange, who would be in Yancheng to pass the book to his flying pigeon Could it be that Miss Wumei counted, she and Wumei had not seen each other for a long time, and she would definitely be able to see her when she went to Yancheng this time, when she saw that she was already a county guard and commanded 200,000 troops, what kind of expression would she have from time to time.
Thinking of this, Tang Yin couldn't help but smile, stretched out his hand and said, "Give me the letter."
"It's an adult" The Shunzhou official who delivered the letter hurriedly stepped forward and respectfully handed over the letter to Tang Yin.
Tang Yin took it, and was disappointed just by looking at the envelope, which was not a charming handwriting.
Because it is a flying pigeon, the envelope and the letter paper are connected together, rolled together, and there is a wax seal on the outside, but the words opened by Lord Tang are written on the outside of the letter.
He took the fire twist from Shangguan Yuanwu, lit it, melted off the wax seal, unfolded the letter, and looked down carefully.
The generals didn't pay much attention to the content of the letter, the letter from Yancheng was urging reinforcements, and they were still discussing which route was fast or slow, and which route was not conducive to the march, but Qiu Zhen was the first to notice that Tang Yin's face had changed, and his hand holding the letter paper was trembling slightly.
It is too rare for Tang Yin to reveal such a change, even when he was facing a life-and-death decision with one enemy, Tang Yin did not tremble, now what is the matter, is there something big happening Qiu Zhen frowned secretly, stopped discussing with the generals, and looked at Tang Yin with straight eyes.
Everyone also sensed that something was wrong at this time, and they straightened up one after another, staring at Tang Yin with big eyes.
I don't know how long it took, Tang Yin finally finished reading the short letter, and then looked around at everyone, didn't say anything, lowered his head again, and was silent.
Seeing this, everyone was even more anxious, and Qiu Zhen couldn't help but ask, "My lord, what is the content of the letter?"
Tang Yin didn't answer, holding the letter paper between his fingers and handing it to Qiu Zhen.
The latter hurriedly took it, and after he saw it from beginning to end, the person was also stunned, stunned, and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
What kind of letter is this, why is anyone who reads it in a daze?
The generals gathered around Qiu Zhen and asked, "Lord Qiu, what happened?"
Qiu Zhen came back to his senses, grinned, and handed the letter to everyone.
Everyone looked down and took a closer look, this letter was written by Deng Mingyang, one of the thousand commanders under Tang Yin when he was the commander of the corps, this is nothing, but the content of the letter is too shocking.
The letter clearly stated that Zhong Tian, the general of the Feng Kingdom, colluded with the palace guards, ambushed heavy troops above the royal court, openly rebelled, killed the Feng King Zhanhua and the crown prince Zhanzhen, killed the Zhan clan in the whole city, and restrained the royal court magnates headed by Liang Xing, Wuyu and Ziyang Haochun, established himself as the king, changed the name of the country to Peng, and sent envoys to negotiate peace with the Ning army, and ceded the wind land 200 miles west of Tongmen to the Ning State.
After reading this letter, the generals were also dumbfounded, and they were all shocked.
I don't know how long it took, Bai Yong came back to his senses and said tremblingly: "I, I have lost the country with a strong wind."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was awakened and immediately caused an uproar in the big tent.
The king was killed, Zhong Tian set himself up as the king, and changed the name of the country to Peng, this news is really shocking and incredible, in this way, there will be no Wind Country in the future, but Peng Kingdom with Zhong Tian as the king Qiu Zhen shook his head a little muddy, waved his hand at everyone, and said, "Quiet, don't mess around first" As he spoke, he grabbed the letter and asked Tang Yin: "Adults think this letter is true or false" Tang Yin raised his head and asked rhetorically: "How can it be fake" After a pause, he said: "This letter was written by Deng Mingyang, he has no reason to lie to me, and he has the courage to write such a big thing." ” "That's right, this news is true."
After speaking, Qiu Zhen's eyes rolled quickly, and then his eyes lit up, his face could not hide his excitement, and he said to Tang Yin urgently: "The opportunity for adults has finally come."
Tang Yin was stunned, and the other generals were also stunned, now that even the country is dead, I don't understand what Qiu Zhen is still excited about.
"What do you mean by that?"
Qiu Zhen leaned forward, subconsciously clenched his fists, and said word by word: "Crusade against rebellion and replace it" When Tang Yin heard this, his body shook, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Qiu Zhen suspiciously, and everyone also looked at Qiu Zhen together.
"Zhong Tian killed the king, the great rebellion, everyone will be punished, it will also cause the world's public indignation, adults can take this opportunity, Tianyuan County as the foundation, hold high the banner of rebellion, openly recruit the world's heroes, look for opportunities, and when the time is ripe, attack Yancheng in one fell swoop, kill the traitor Zhong Tian, at that time, the adults will restore the title of the wind country, and they can also sit on the throne of the king logically."
Qiu Zhense said.
"This" Tang Yin is not a simple-minded person, the throne of the king is tempting, but can things be as simple as Qiu Zhen said He believed that Zhong Tian was by no means a sudden attack, but had premeditated, and even this invasion of Ning Guo's army was an affair with him.

Now, a lot of things can be explained.
At the beginning, the Wind Country mobilized troops against the Ning State, and there was a Jianxi within the royal court who reported to the Ning State, and that Jianxi was likely to be Zhong Tian, his purpose was to weaken the strength of the powerful people of the Fengguo, and the final result did lead to the collapse of the most powerful Ziyang family; Princess Yin Rou sent an envoy to the Wind Kingdom to be assassinated by assassins, which was Zhong Tian's attempt to keep the two countries at war with Feng Ning, so as to further deplete the forces of the Wind King's court and magnates; Zhong Tianmenke infiltrated Hengcheng to arrest Fan Min, that was to control Fan Ju, as long as he got the financial support of the Fan family, the country could quickly stabilize after he usurped the throne; Zhong Tian proposed to replace the Tongmen guards, which led to the loss of Tongmen overnight, and the purpose was more obvious, that is, to collude with Ning Guo and deliberately lead the Ning army into the country, so as to create an opportunity for his usurpation.
Tang Yin felt that he had already had the intention of rebellion before he arrived in this world, this old fox had been scheming for many years, hiding for so long, just waiting for the opportunity, and now he finally waited for the opportunity, which can be extinguished.
Taking a deep breath, Tang Yin knocked on his faintly aching forehead, and said slowly: "Things are not clear yet, and it is too early to assert, let's calm down the changes now."
Qiu Zhen still wanted to speak, but Tang Yin waved his hand impatiently, interrupting his next words.
Originally, Tang Yin was also ready to wave his troops south to assist Wang Ting and the Ning army in a decisive battle, but Deng Mingyang's flying pigeon biography completely messed up his plans and deployments, and more than 200,000 troops were stationed in Tianguan like this, waiting for the exact news of Yancheng to come back.
After a few days, the exact news from Yancheng came back, everything was just as written in Deng Mingyang's letter, Zhong Tian rebelled, proclaimed himself King Peng, and changed his name to Peng, in addition, Zhong Tian sent a decree to the counties as the king of Peng, asking whether the county guards of each county were loyal to him, and Tang Yin, as the county guard of Tianyuan County, would naturally receive Zhong Tian's will.
The arrival of another person surprised Tang Yin
