Chapter 370 This is Tang Yin's style, he will not easily trust others, even if he is sure, he has to see the result with his own eyes.
There are quite a few county troops in the seven counties, 50,000 in Tai'an County, 30,000 in Shangqing County, Gaoyang County, Lingdong County and Lingnan County, and 20,000 in Fuchuan and Pingxi Counties, adding up to 200,000 people.
He has two advantages in doing so: first, it makes it difficult for the county army to disperse its forces, and it is difficult to cohesive, and it will no longer pose a threat to itself; second, the county army is mostly new recruits, and their combat effectiveness is low, and they are scattered to various army corps, and the way in which veterans lead new recruits can enable these 200,000 recruits to form combat effectiveness in the shortest possible time, and at the same time, the thoughts and concepts of veterans can also be instilled in the minds of recruits, so that they can establish a high enough loyalty to themselves.
The Tianyuan Army has been recruiting troops in Yancheng, and its strength has already expanded to 600,000, and with the merger of these 200,000 county troops, its strength has reached as much as 800,000.
In addition to the 100,000 elites of the Plains Army that have not changed, the Sanshui Army, the Chifeng Army, and the directly subordinate armies have all reached 200,000, and even the Sky Eagle Army that defected to Tang Yin has reached 100,000.
In addition, with the prostration of the heads of the seven counties, Tang Yin finally seized the opportunity to send additional reinforcements to Tongmen.
He ordered Shen Zhichen to be the main general, and transferred 200,000 soldiers from the various corps of the Tianyuan Army to Tongmen to replace the soldiers of the Sanshui Army led by Liang Qi and Shangguan Yuanrang.
Shen Zhichen was originally born as a corps commander, and he was also a general, who had defended Jinhua City with Tang Yin and blocked the Ning army, in that battle Tang Yin was deeply impressed by Shen Zhichen, feeling that this person was quick-witted, decisive, calm, and could make quick judgments even at critical moments, he was a rare guard, and sent him to guard Tongmen, Tang Yin was very relieved.
Tongmen is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, in this case, Tang Yin still sent 200,000 troops to defend it, which also shows how much he attaches importance to this important point of Tongmen.
Liang Qi and Shangguan Yuanrang's return were welcomed by the people of Yancheng.
These two people attacked Tongmen with great success, and in the minds of the people, they are already the heroes of the Wind Country, especially Shangguan Yuanrang, who is rumored to be a god, is simply the god of war of the Wind Country, people want to see the demeanor of Shangguan Yuanrang with their own eyes, and the people on the street gather in a crowd of people, which is even more lively than Liang Xing, Wuyu, and Ziyang Haochun when they return to the capital.
When the two of them rode into the city on a tall horse, the whole Yancheng cheered thunderously, and bright red petals fluttered all over the sky, and its lively scene was unprecedented.
Tang Yin also saw the scene at this time, and he still had a faint smile on his face, but his smile at this time was completely different from the smile when Liang Xing and the others entered the capital.
At that time, he was just smirking, but now he is laughing from the heart, and in his opinion, Liang Qi and Shangguan Yuanrang are well received.
From Tianyuan County to the Morphis Federation, and then borrowed the road to attack Tongmen, the journey was thousands of miles, and more than 10,000 soldiers were lost in the process of marching alone, which shows the degree of hardship.
Liang Qi and Shangguan Yuan let the exhausted Sanshui Army with only 80,000 people capture Tongmen in one fell swoop, and resist the countless counterattacks of the Ning army, which is not easy, Tang Yin admires and appreciates these two people from the bottom of his heart.
When Liang Qi and Shangguan Yuanrang saw Tang Yin, their bodies were shocked, and they turned over and dismounted in unison, hurriedly walked to Tang Yin's horse, knelt on one knee, intervened to give salutes, and choked up and said: "The last general Liang Qi Shangguan Yuanrang, see the adult" Between the words, the tears of both fell down.
With tens of thousands of Sanshui Army to guard Tongmen, it is not easy, Ning's counterattack wave after wave, has never been interrupted for several months, the 80,000 Sanshui Army soldiers who entered the city at the beginning, followed Liang Qi and Shangguan Yuanrang back only 30,000 people, and everyone was injured, several times even Liang Qi thought that he could not hold it, Tongmen was soon broken by the Ning army, but in the end he still gritted his teeth with the soldiers below and persevered, desperately survived, to ensure that Tongmen was not lost.
Seeing Tang Yin at this time, the hardships and dangers of the past few months came to my heart, and then I thought that there were still so many soldiers buried in Tongmen and would never be able to return to their hometown, Liang Qi and Shangguan Yuanrang all shed tears.
The two of them cried, Tang Yin's eyes were red, and he almost cried, they had only been seen for a few months, Liang Qi and Shangguan Yuanrang had lost a lot of weight, and the armor of the two of them was obviously new, but the armor was customized according to their original figures, and now they were worn on their bodies, and they looked much bigger, as if they were not the two of them.
Tang Yin hurriedly turned over and dismounted, stretched out his hands to hold the two of them up at the same time, he was also very excited at this time, even his voice trembled, and he whispered: "Two brothers, hard work" As a commander and commander-in-chief, being able to be commensurate with his subordinates as brothers in public was not something that ordinary people could do in that era with a strong class concept.
Tang Yin's brother made Liang Qi and Shangguan Yuanrang's tears flow more, and now they feel that all the hardships they have suffered in the past few months are worth it, not for anything else, but for Tang Yin.
"The Last Will Not Disgrace the Mission" Before Liang Qi finished speaking, Tang Yin had already taken his and Shangguan Yuanrang's hands and said, "Don't talk about this now, let's go home first" As he spoke, he pulled the two of them and walked towards his mansion.
In Tang Yin's opinion, it would be too hypocritical to talk about what merit and reward at this time.
Tang Yin's unconventional behavior made the surrounding people cheer constantly, in the minds of the people, the commander who can be close to the soldiers under his command is a good commander, and people are also willing to see the army of the Wind Country can be united, Tang Yin's current performance just satisfies people's desires.
With the return of Liang Qi, the commanders of the five corps under the Tianyuan Army had gathered in Yancheng, and next, Tang Yin began to prepare to move south to continue to discuss the affairs of Zhong Tian and others.
Now, the Tianyuan army has a large number of generals, whether it is materials or food and grass, they are very sufficient, and the soldiers below are also eager to fight, and they all hope to send troops to Zhong Tian as soon as possible.
At this time, Qiu Zhen proposed one thing to Tang Yin, that is, he had said before, Tang Yin must be justified in his name if he wants to be king, and this must be recognized by the emperor in Shangjing.
Now, as long as Zhong Tian is eliminated, the matter of the new monarch will be put on the agenda, and it will be too late to make preparations in this regard at that time.
After listening to Qiu Zhen's opinion, although Tang Yin felt reasonable, he really couldn't get out of his body now, if he went to Beijing, he would not only have to pass through the south of the Wind Country, but also through the Mo Country and Anguo, the journey would be thousands of miles, and how much time would be delayed back and forth Qiu Zhen nodded, feeling that Tang Yin's concerns were also right, and he said faintly: "But this matter can't be left undone."
The adults can send a competent person to Beijing first, make some connections, and as long as the adults find time here, they will rush over immediately. ” "En" Tang Yin replied while pondering, but who should be sent to Beijing first After thinking about it, a person's shadow suddenly flashed in his mind, Jiang Lu.
Jiang Lu has a lot of problems, that is, he can't lead troops to fight and can't give advice, and he is sour, and he can lift his ass to the sky with some credit, and no one cares about it, but he has one advantage that others can't compare, that is, his mouth.
Jiang Lu can speak well, and his mouth is like a river, and the dead can be said to be alive.
When Ziying occupied Huya Mountain, it was Jiang Lu who went up the mountain to persuade him to surrender, and even Ziying, a loyal person, could choose to surrender to Tang Yin regardless of his family's surname, which shows Jiang Lu's eloquence.
Now it is necessary to send someone to Beijing to deal with the ministers of the imperial court, who else can be sent here if he is not sent Tang Yin couldn't help but smile and said, "I think Jiang Lu can take on this important responsibility." ” Hearing this, Qiu Zhen looked up and laughed, and said, "My lord really thought of going with me, and I also think Jiang Lu is the best candidate." ” Hearing Qiu Zhen say the same, Tang Yin no longer hesitated, and said, "Then arrange for Jiang Lu to do this matter."
"Good lord, even if Jiang Lu can speak well, there must be no less things," Qiu Zhen reminded thoughtfully.
"How about five thousand taels of gold," Tang Yin asked.
Qiu Zhen shook his head and said, "Gold and silver things, I don't think they may be able to touch the heart of the minister of Shangjing, so it's better to give treasures." ” Tang Yin smiled, smiled bitterly, he shrugged his shoulders and said, "Where do I have any treasures?"
Qiu Zhen was confident, and said softly with a smile: "My lord doesn't have it, but there is one in the palace." ” Oh Tang Yin was stunned, yes, there are treasures in the palace, Zhong Tian fled in a hurry, and many of the remaining treasures were not taken away, and now they are all sealed in the palace.
He asked, "You mean that I will steal the treasures from the palace and use them to bribe the ministers of Shangjing."
"It's not stealing, it's just taking it in advance."
Qiu Zhenzhen said confidently: "The queen will be the monarch of the Wind Country, aren't the treasures in the palace all adults' now that the adults are only taking out some of them and using them, how can they be regarded as stealing?"
Tang Yin smiled and shook his head, Qiu Zhen said that Jiang Lu's mouth was powerful, and he himself was not like this.
He replied: "You are right, just do what you want, I will enter the palace tonight and go to pick some treasures." ” "I'll go with my lords" Now the palace is firmly controlled by the Tianyuan Army, except for the opening of the court every day, the rest of the time is sealed, the people inside can't get out, and the people outside can't get in.
As the commander of the Tianyuan Army, no one dared to stop Tang Yin from entering and leaving the palace.

That night, Tang Yin took Qiu Zhen, Shangguan brothers and dozens of guards to the palace, but before he got closer, he was stopped by the Tianyuan soldiers guarding the palace gate, and when a thousand commanders ran to Tang Yin and others, he handed the torch in his hand forward, raised his eyes and looked again, his body was shocked, and he hurriedly knelt down on one knee and intervened to salute: "My subordinates have seen adults" "En" Tang Yin responded casually and said, "Open the palace gate, I want to enter the palace." ”:
