The three regiments of plain army, Sanshui army and Chifeng army can be said to be the main force of Tianyuan army. The manpower of Sanshui army and Chifeng army has been expanded to 150000, and their combat power is roughly equivalent to that of 100000 plain army. As for the directly subordinate army, the manpower composition is basically dominated by recruits. It is not so much the close army beside Tang Yin as the reserve army of Tianyuan army.
After a series of adjustments, the overall skeleton of the Tianyuan army was basically finalized.
The commander of Pingyuan military is Xiao MuQing, and the deputy commander is Chen Fang and Liu Zhongsheng; The commander of Sanshui army is Liang Qi, and the deputy commander is Bai Yong and Juno; The commander of Chifeng army is Li Wei and the deputy commander is Peng haochu. In fact, Tang Yin's arrangement has been carefully considered. Among the leaders of the three legions, Tang Yin believed in their ability, but he did not necessarily trust their loyalty to himself, so he placed his heart and abdomen around them. In this way, not only can each Legion get the leadership and command of excellent generals, but also the loyalty is enough to eliminate his worries.
After defeating Ning army, the manpower of Tianyuan army expanded rapidly, and its overall strength was not weakened, but greatly enhanced. Tang Yin was ambitious and wanted to pursue the victory. He planned to command the army to continue to go south and attack Lehu County, the last barrier of Yancheng. As long as Lehu county was won again, Tianyuan army could go straight to the Yellow Dragon and forge ahead in Yancheng.
However, at this time, counselors and aides led by Qiu Zhen met Tang Yin one after another to dissuade him from delaying the deployment of troops.
Tang Yin is puzzled. His side is now winning. When will it be time to wait without soldiers? After listening to his thoughts, Qiu Zhen smiled, shook his head and said, "my lord overestimates our current form. We do have an advantage over Zhong Tian, but it is not a victory. It is still ambiguous whether we can turn the current advantage into a victory."
With a slight frown, Tang Yin asked, "why did Lord Qiu say this?"
Qiu zhengse said, "Sir, we now have 500000 troops. So many people need to eat, drink, materials and pay every day. It's all money. How can we afford it only by relying on the strength of Tianyuan county? What if the food, grass and pay are poor when adults wave troops south? Then our advantage will change the trend of success or failure!"
After hearing his words, Tang Yin felt that he had been drenched with cold water. Most of his surging mood was extinguished. His face also sank and looked at Qiu Zhen coldly. Qiu Zhen's words are ugly, but it doesn't mean they are unreasonable, but even if they are reasonable, it doesn't mean Tang Yin likes to listen. He tapped his fingers on the table and asked, "what does Lord Qiu mean?"
Before Qiu Zhen could speak, Zong Yuan stepped forward and bowed his hands, Say first: "According to my subordinates, my Lord is still the first to stabilize the rear and get the actual control of Guannan county and Jinguang County as soon as possible. With these two counties and Tianyuan County, it is not difficult to support 500000 troops. In addition, my Lord should start sending letters to other counties as soon as possible to win the support of the heads of counties around Dafeng. In this way, my Lord not only has no future care Worry free can also greatly weaken the strength of Zhong Tian's traitor and kill two birds with one stone! "
"Yes!" Tang Yin smelled the speech and nodded his head. He liked to listen to the advice that could give him a practical plan. He pondered for a moment, looked at Zongyuan and asked with a smile, "in your opinion, how can I control the real power of Guannan county and Jinguang county?"
Zongyuan smiled and said, "it's very simple. Abolish the original county head and establish a new county head!"
Tang Yin turned her eyes, then narrowed her eyes and asked suspiciously, "do you mean to let me kill Zhao Hui and Yu Tao?"
"No, no!" Zong Yuan waved again and again and said, "if you want to get the support of other prefects, you must be kind to Zhao Hui and Yu Tao. You can not only kill them, but also promote their official positions. Of course, adults can give them empty positions without real names, or deprive them of their real power."
Tang Yin's mind turned and nodded as he listened. When Zongyuan finished, he naturally looked at Qiu Zhen and asked him what he meant. In Tang Yin's heart, Qiu Zhen is the one he trusts and relies on most.
Seeing Tang Yin asking, Qiu Zhen smiled, Nodded and said: "Lord Zong's opinion is exactly what I mean. However, I think Lord Zhao is honest, honest and reliable, and can be entrusted with important tasks. It's better not to move. Yu Tao is a villain with two sides and three swords. It's not easy to let him occupy an important position. He can be the chief inspector of Tianyuan, Guannan and Jinguang counties. He will be promoted to an official without real power. Later, when the Lord eliminates the rebellion, he will die It can be easily removed. "
"Ha ha --" Tang Yin smiled up and said, "what Lord Qiu and Lord Zong said is very true. Let's do it according to your two wishes!"
Qiu Zhen said, "adults can summon the county heads and county heads of the three counties in Huaiyang, the prefecture of Jinguang County, listen to their words and observe their deeds. Adults can also judge whether to stay or abandon these people face to face!"
"Yes!" Tang Yin nodded again and said, "Lord Qiu, you can arrange this!"
"Yes, my Lord!"
Tang Yin relied heavily on Qiu Zhen. Zhang Zhe and other counselors didn't think much, but Zongyuan saw it and remembered it. When Tang Yin and Qiu Zhen's words came to an end, he bowed his hands and said, "my Lord, my subordinates have a plan to calm the soldiers. I don't know what to say or what to say?"
Tang Yin is not interested in intrigues over power. What he is really interested in is the military. After listening to Zongyuan's words, his eyes lit up and said with a smile: "since Lord Zong has defected to me, he is his brother. You're welcome. If you have anything to say, just say it!"
Zong Yuan felt warm when he heard the speech. He quickly saluted, Then he said positively: It seems that if the puppet army can be isolated from our country, it will hurt our morale. If it is so difficult, it may be better to send a puppet army to occupy our country, but it will hurt our heart if it is better to send a puppet army to occupy our country , it can also trap the remaining Ning army in our wind land, which will be very beneficial to our army! "
"Oh? What place are you talking about?"
"Tongmen!"
"Tongmen?" Not to mention Tang Yin's surprise, Qiu Zhen and others also looked surprised and turned their heads to Zongyuan.
Zong Yuan said, "Tongmen is not only the west gate of our country, but also the east gate of Ningguo. No matter who can occupy Tongmen, they can gain absolute advantage over each other. If our army can occupy Tongmen, not only Ningguo can't send more reinforcements recently, but also zhanmatchless and zhaninvincible will be trapped and die in our country!"
When he finished, Tang Yin and others were speechless for a long time.
The importance of Tongmen is well known, but how can the Tianyuan army in Jinguang County occupy Tongmen thousands of miles away? Moreover, Tongmen has been ceded to the state of Ning by Zhong Tian and now belongs to the territory of the state of Ning. How can a large number of Ning troops stationed in it be able to fight down? Moreover, if they march towards Tongmen, they will certainly scare the snake. I'm afraid they will be surrounded by Ning troops before they arrive at Tongmen.
After careful consideration for a while, they shook their heads and felt that this plan was too impractical and could not be achieved at all.
Zong Yuan looked at the people's expressions in his eyes. He smiled and said, "only when the soldiers are dangerous can they achieve miraculous results! Just because Tongmen has been ceded to Ningguo, there will not be too many Ningjun stationed there, and Tongmen's defense is strong in the West and weak in the East. As long as our army can suddenly kill out and be surprised, it will succeed in one attack!"
"How can you be surprised?" Zhang Zhe shook his head and said, "from Jinguang county to Tongmen, we have to pass through Lehu County, the capital and the three counties west of the capital. In addition, the windy land 200 miles west of Tongmen has been ceded to Ningguo. There are Ningren everywhere. How can our army get close to Tongmen without being aware of it and without leaking any news?"
His question is just what people think. Although sneaking attack on Tongmen is a conspiracy, it is difficult to implement and is not practical.
Zongyuan seemed to have expected that someone would ask this question. Instead of answering, he looked at Tang Yin and asked with a smile, "Your Excellency is very friendly with the besa city-state of moffis Federation, isn't it?"
His question is nonsense. If Tang Yin doesn't have a good relationship with besa people, how can besa's heavy Armored Cavalry rush to reinforce Tang Yin, and even Princess besa go there in person.
Tang Yin frowned slightly, raised his head and said, "go on!"
Zong yuanmu said: "if our army goes to the territory of Fengguo, it will naturally be informed by Ning people. Before even reaching Tongmen, it will be blocked by Ning army. However, if our army doesn't go to the territory of Murphys Federation and detour to Tongmen, Ning people won't notice it!"
"Ah --" hearing this, the people couldn't help inhaling one after another.
As the saying goes, in a word, wake up the dreamer. There are so many counselors and staff present that no one has thought of borrowing the way from the Federation of Murphys and bypassing to Tongmen. The Federation of Murphys is not a besa city-state, but is composed of more than 20 large and small city-state alliances. However, among them, besa city-state is the most powerful and belligerent. It often uses troops, plunders and kills people in the wind, which has made the wind people miserable for decades. Now Tang Yin has a good relationship with it. Naturally, he can get in touch with other city-states through besa city-state, It must not be too difficult to borrow a way.
To the west of Tongmen is Fengdi, to the east of Tongmen is Ningdi, while to the north of Tongmen, less than 20 miles away is the territory of Duji city state of mofes Federation. Twenty miles away, even infantry can arrive in half an hour. Even if they are found on the way, it is difficult for Ningguo to assemble troops in such a short time.
Careful analysis, this plan is really a wonderful plan! Tang Yin took a deep breath and his eyes were shining. He couldn't help but look at Zongyuan with new eyes. He rubbed his chin and youyou said, "from this point of view, our army can try to sneak attack Tongmen!"
