Yan City.
Zhong Tian spent a great deal of effort to finally stop the fleeing soldiers in the middle of the army, but at this time, he was already severely injured. Originally, the Liang, Wu and Ziyang families had twenty directly subordinate divisions, two hundred thousand people, and after escaping, the twenty divisions were practically useless, not even useful anymore.
At this time, Zhan Wudi, one of the commanders of the Ning army, took the initiative to look for Zhong Tian, telling him to immediately gather his army, join forces with the Ning army, and attack the Tianyuan County that was led by Tang Yin.
Zhan Wudi and Zhan Wushuang were brothers, so they were both Chief General s with the same Ning Country. They held a high position and were popular people in front of King Ning, so Zhong Tian did not dare to ignore them.
Zhan Wudi glanced at Zhong Tian as the corner of his mouth twitched. Finally, he swallowed the words that were about to leave his mouth.
If he stayed any longer, there was a chance that something bad might happen. In order to prevent any problems from happening, he could only personally step in and urge Zhong Tian to set off, and the four hundred thousand soldiers of the Ning Army had already been stationed at the Feng Country for a long time, so the soldiers were anxious to return home, so he could not delay it any longer.
After Zhong Tian and Zi Yang met, they immediately began to gather their troops. With him gathering and assembling, there were a total of three hundred thousand people, of which six were directly under Zhong Tian's command, and the original five were under the royal family's control. From Liang, Wu and Zi Yang's three Member's four divisions, each county had two hundred thousand soldiers stationed outside of the city, making a total of three hundred and fifty thousand people.
The three hundred and fifty thousand army under Zhong Tian's command and the four hundred thousand Ning army were all ready to go, they wanted to go north to suppress Tang Yin. At the same time, Tang Yin was also not idle, he transferred the four hundred thousand Tianyuan Army to the south and entered the Guannan County, while at the same time, he sent people to ride on horses to the Bessa City to borrow troops from the king.
Tang Yin had been harassed by Bessa Army since the start, so he was naturally very familiar with the combat power of Bessa Army. Qiu Zhen had suggested to Bessa that they borrow a cavalry from him, and regardless of whether it was in combat strength or defensive power, Bessa's Heavy Armored Cavalry was extremely strong. Furthermore, the Feng Army of his Yan City and the distant Ning Army had never seen his Heavy Armored Cavalry before.
Tang Yin thought that Qiu Zhen's suggestion was very reasonable and immediately accepted it. He then personally got someone to write a letter in Basa to send it to the Bessa City, and at the same time, sent over a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry, showing his thanks.
In order to protect the foundation of the Tianyuan County, he did not wish to start a war at the doorstep of the Tianyuan County. Instead, he wanted to place the battlefield outside of the Tianyuan County, which many people did not understand, and did not understand why this place, called Heaven Pass, would not be guarded, but instead, chose to go to the Guannan County to fight. Having lost the advantage of defending, he decided to fight from the front, because with the current strength of their side, they would not be able to defeat the enemy with a strength of seven or eight hundred thousand.
However, the commanders of the troops were unanimous in their support of Tang Yin as they felt that fighting in the Guannan County would be beneficial to their side. They were not afraid of ruining the economy and stability of the Tianyuan County like Tang Yin, but thought that it would be more surprising if they fought in the Guannan County, so they took Zhong Tian by surprise.
Currently, Zhong Tian did not know that the Guannan County County Head was biased towards his own side, so he naturally treated the Guannan army as his own trump card. After coming here, he would most likely be caught unprepared, and if they were to suddenly attack from the side and surprise attack, it would definitely destroy the alliance between Zhong Tian and the Ning Country.
After hearing the analysis of the marshal, those who expressed their opposition no longer said anything. After all, what they said was very reasonable.
Guannan County was something that happened in the entire prefecture and was very close to it. It was even faster to travel from the Heaven Pass to the prefecture than from the Heaven Pass to the Shunzhou.
Tang Yin commanded the Directly Subordinate Army of ten thousand Tianyuan County as the vanguard, and after a day and night of hasty march, they arrived outside the city.
It was currently early in the morning, and the sky was starting to brighten up. Tang Yin spurred his horse forward, and under the city walls, there were no soldiers to be seen on the tall and thick city walls of Tongzhou, and the banners were even more ridiculous. Some of them were red on the ground and white on the face of the Peng, some were even black on the ground and white on the face of the Flag of Feng Country.
The three brothers Shangguan Yuan, Yuanwu, and Yuanbiao also came along with Tang Yin. Shangguan Yuan urged the horse to's side, and snorted at the city walls, "I think that this is just like a clump of claymore, whoever is at the end of the path even has two flags, it's just in case there is a need for it!"
Tang Yin was also amused, he shook his head and took a deep breath, then shouted to the city walls: "Brothers above, listen up, I am Tang Yin, quickly go and inform your County Head, let him come out to speak with me!"
His shout finally alarmed the soldiers on the city walls. After a long period of disturbance, finally, someone timidly stuck out half a head from the wall and looked down. He saw a large group of people gathered outside the city, and they were all in a large team of riders. There were a few Flag in front of them, with the words' Wind ',' Tianyuan 'and' Tang 'embroidered on them.
The watching soldier sucked in a breath of cold air, gathered his courage, and asked uncertainly: "You... "Who are you?"
Tang Yin rolled his eyes, then increased the volume and shouted: "Tianyuan County, Tang Yin!"
Aiya, it's Tang Yin! The soldier's legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground. Tang Yin had come to the Tong Tian Province, and that Tang Yin, who had an army of hundreds of thousands, had actually come to the Tong Tian Province. Were they here to attack Tongzhou? The soldier held onto the arrow stack as he swallowed with difficulty. He stammered, "Does Master Tang want to see you? Use... Do you need us to open the gate first? "
Tang Yin almost laughed out loud, what kind of commander would have what kind of soldier? He waved his hand and said, "Let's call your master out first!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Master Tang, that … "Wait for a moment outside the city, I'll report it right away!"
"Good!" It's been hard on you, brother! "
"Aiya, the lord is polite, polite."
From the conversation between the two, Zhang Xuan couldn't find any trace of hostility in their words, needless to say, they didn't seem to be hostile against the other party. Zhao Hui didn't want to be Zhong Tian's lackey, and even more so, didn't want to become enemies with Tang Yin, who was raising the Great Flag of Feng Country s high in the air. His soldiers were also in the same state.
After the soldier and Tang Yin finished talking, he did not dare delay any longer and immediately ran down the city wall like his butt was on fire to the County Head Palace to report this matter.
After waiting for almost an hour, the city gates of Tongzhou opened and a middle aged man dressed in County Magistrate Official Robe s opened up. Under the protection of a dozen bodyguards, she hastily walked out of the city and out of the city.
This troop of cavalry soldiers had strong horses, tall and sturdy cavalrymen, bright armor, and spirited spirits. Each of them had round, round eyes that flickered with light, causing people's souls to tremble. It wasn't hard to judge the enemy's combat ability just by looking at his military strength. Zhao Hui was not an incompetent, unconscious person, so he could naturally feel it too.
He licked his dry lips, took two steps forward and laughed dryly: "I am Zhao Hui, may I ask, who is Master Tang Tang Yin?"
"Master Zhao, it's been a while, I'm Tang Yin!" While talking, Tang Yin nimbly flew down the horse, and came to Zhao Hui's front and cupped his hands towards him. At the same time, he sized him up with his blade-like gaze.
So this was the Tang Yin who had been in the limelight recently.
Tang Yin was much younger than Zhao Hui had expected. He looked to be about twenty-five or sixteen years old, dressed in black armor with a black helmet and a black cloak. He did not look like a ferocious martial general, but rather very handsome and elegant.
"Master Tang, I have heard a lot about you, this official has heard a lot about you!" In front of Tang Yin, Zhao Hui was naturally shorter by a head. His attitude was humble and polite, as if he had forgotten that he and Tang Yin were of the same level and that they were the head of the same country.
Tang Yin laughed: "Master Zhao is too polite."
"Master Tang suddenly came here, it's …"
"I want to defend the Guannan County against the combined forces of Zhong Tian and the Ning Country. I wonder if the Master Zhao can help?"
"Huh?" Zhao Hui took a deep breath and paused for a moment. Then he turned and asked: "Master Tang, can we talk for a bit more?"
Tang Yin nodded his head, he was about to follow Zhao Hui into the city, and when the other cavaliers saw that, they all started to follow. Tang Yin waved his hand at them, and said: "Yuanwu, Yuanbiao, lead the way, just give way to me and follow me into the city!"
"Yes, my lord!" Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao agreed and went back to their own formation.
The Guannan County was now empty, and did not dare to do anything to Tang Yin. Even if they wanted to scheme and scheme something, with Shangguan Yuan present, the other party would not be able to find an opportunity to do so.
Tang Yin only brought along one person to follow him into the city. Just his courage was enough to make Zhao Hui admire him.
Along the way, he intentionally moved his guard a little further away, and then asked Tang Yin: "Actually, I also hate Zhong Tian's usurpation. I believe that Master Tang should have long known about this."
"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded his head, regardless of whether Zhao Hui really hated him or not, he was still grateful to him for donating so much money to his army.
"Therefore, if Master Tang wants to fight with Zhong Tian, I will definitely stand by his side. As long as there is a place that requires me, I will do my best to help."
"Very good. With Master Zhao's words, I feel at ease." Tang Yin said with a smile.
As he walked towards the city, he looked around him. It was now just dawn, and many shops in Tongzhou City were already open for business, and there were many pedestrians on the streets. From this, it wasn't hard to see that Zhao Hui had managed Tongzhou City very well.
