Chapter 523

Tang Yin was almost annoyed by him, he tilted his head and asked, "Zhang Zhe, what's wrong with this time?"

Zhang Zhe hurriedly said: "The king wants to use troops against Ning, and fight with Ning, no matter how you fight, it will be a civil war in my Haotian Empire, if you join forces with Du Ji, it will become a traitor who colludes with barbarian states, which is not only not good for my gale, but will also be blamed by other countries, and even worse, it may lead to a siege by all countries!"

This......

Tang Yin really hadn't thought about this, after listening to Zhang Zhe, he pondered it carefully and felt that what Zhang Zhe said was not unreasonable.

After pondering for a long time, he smiled lightly again, and said faintly: "There are only coincidences, no teamwork." Seeing the puzzled look on Zhang Zhe's face, Tang Yin squinted his eyes and explained: "As long as we don't spread the word to the outside world, who will know that we have joined forces with Du Ji?

"But ......" Zhang Zhe still wanted to speak, Tang Yin waved his hand and said: "Your worries are also correct, but the time of our attack with Du Ji can be staggered, Du Ji will send troops first, and then we will send troops after Ning Guo and Du Ji hand over, so that the other vassal states will at most mean that we are taking advantage of the fire to rob and fall into the well, and will not think of anything else." ”

After hearing this, Zhang Zhe frowned and did not speak again, silently thinking about whether the method Tang Yin said was feasible. Qiu Zhen continued: "I think the king's method is good, it's just that the side that sends troops first will inevitably encounter the main force of the Ning army, and the side that sends troops later has a great advantage, I don't know if Du Ji will agree to fight first." ”

Tang Yin shrugged his shoulders and said, "I will discuss this matter with Alden Allenridge, and you should also hurry up and set a battle strategy." ”

"Yes, King!" Qiu Zhen and the others replied in unison.

"Do you have anything else to do?"

"The ministers have nothing to do!" Qiu Zhen and the others bowed to Tang Yin again, and then got up one after another and walked outside the hall.

Xiao Muqing's work efficiency was very high, and at noon that day, he sent the 20,000 elites he personally selected from the Plains Army to the palace to serve as palace guards. After a simple handover, the Second Corps of the Plains Army, which was originally stationed in the palace, was withdrawn, and all posts were replaced by palace guards.

With the arrival of 20,000 soldiers, the palace finally regained some vitality, and wherever he went, he could see groups of guards patrolling by, and the gates, key points, and intersections of each palace were also guarded by complete guards. At the same time, the female officials in the palace recruited the palace maids who had fled out of the palace one after another, and summoned a large number of new palace maids.

The current palace is much stronger than when it was deserted before, which makes Tang Yin feel more comfortable.

After eating at noon, Tang Yin asked a minor official who could write the Morphist script to write a letter to Alden Allenrich, the king of the Duki Kingdom, on his behalf, first stating that he had inherited the throne of the Wind Kingdom, and then going straight to the point, talking about the two countries joining forces to attack the Ning Kingdom.

After the petty officials finished writing all the letters, checked them three times in a row, and confirmed that they were correct, they handed the letters to Tang Yin. After Tang Yin took the letter, he did not let the petty official leave, but left it in the palace, firstly, he would exchange letters with Du Ji frequently during this time, and he needed someone who could write Morphis to help him, and secondly, Tang Yin was also afraid that the petty officials would leak the news, once the outside world knew that he colluded with Du Ji and joined forces to attack Ningguo, it would be very unfavorable to himself, and Zhang Zhe's worried words were likely to become a reality. Tang Yin still doesn't dare to risk the world's greatness.

After sealing the letter, Tang Yin found a historian with a not small official position, handed the letter to him, and asked him to send it to Du Ji secretly. This historian is one of the advisers under the former Tang Yin, named Wang Fang, and his ability to give advice may not be very good, but he is eloquent and eloquent, and he is the same type of lobbyist as Jiang Lu.

Being able to get Tang Yin's personal entrustment, Wang Fang was extremely excited, and after receiving the letter, he carefully put it into his arms, and the voice should be.

Tang Yin looked at him and said: "You have two purposes for this trip, one is to send my letter, and the other is to persuade Alden Allenrich to send troops to attack Ning Kingdom first, if you can do these two things well, I will reward you heavily when you come back, promote your officer, and add your knight!"

When Wang Fang heard this, he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Before he could finish the matter, he didn't even leave the house, but he began to thank him first. Tang Yin was slightly stunned, and then laughed on his back, his favorite is this kind of energetic and confident person, such a person can make Du Ji more able to show the national prestige of the Wind Country.

In the afternoon of the same day, Qiu Zhen, Xiao Muqing, Liang Qi, Peng Haochu, Ziying, Gu Yue and others entered the palace together to discuss the strategy of the battle of Hedong with Tang Yin.

Hedong is almost the size of two counties, with five cities and eighteen towns. The five cities are Nanhai, Jianxing, Qingyuan, Xiaoxia, and Fengcheng. Among them, Qingyuan is located in the central hinterland of Hedong, Xiaoxia and Fengcheng are close to Tongmen, and Nanhai and Jianxing are located in the depth of Hedong.

Before coming to see Tang Yin, Qiu Zhen and others had already done some deliberations, and decided to divide the troops into three routes, take Xiaoxia, take Fengcheng, and finally insert into the hinterland of Hedong, take Qingyuan directly, and first take the three cities with lightning speed, as for the remaining Nanhai and Jianxing, they can slowly advance and gradually encroach on them.

In the study, everyone saluted Tang Yin, then took out the map and explained their battle plan to Tang Yin in detail. At this time, the two persons in charge of intelligence, Lotte and Ai Jia, were also present, and after Qiu Zhen and the others finished speaking, Tang Yin asked the two of them: "What is the total strength of the Ning army in the Hedong region at present?"

"Back to the king, the strength of the Ning army should be no less than 200,000, mainly concentrated in Xiaoxia and Fengcheng, Ning Guo is angry about the loss of Tongmen, and has not planned to give up, and the purpose of stationing troops in Xiaoxia and Fengcheng is also to find an opportunity to attack Tongmen nearby!"

Tang Yin nodded, looked at the map spread on the table, and muttered with a deep gaze: "From this point of view, the two battles of Xiaoxia and the closure of the city are not easy to fight!" After a pause, he looked up at Qiu Zhen and asked, "Qiu Zhen, how many troops can we bring with us when we go to the Hedong region this time?"

Qiu Zhen thought for a while and replied cautiously: "At present, the total strength of my Gale Central Army is more than 800,000, if we go on an expedition, we must stay in the capital city of 100,000, and in order to prevent a sudden attack in the southern Mozambican country, we must leave another 100,000 troops, plus the 200,000 troops stationed in Tongmen, our army can send up to 400,000 troops!"

400,000 people, if only to deal with the 200,000 troops of the Ning army stationed in the Hedong area is more than enough, but Yan Chu, the monarch of the Ning State, will not sit idly by and ignore the Hedong, as long as his own army comes, the central army of the Ning State will definitely rush to reinforce, and the total strength of the enemy army will not know how many tens of thousands.

Tang Yin frowned and said faintly: "If the 200,000 troops stationed in Tongmen can go out together, the battle will be much easier." ”

Qiu Zhen's body was shocked, he hurriedly waved his hand, shook his head and said: "King, the strength of Tongmen cannot be moved in any way, this time our army goes to Hedong, whether it is successful or not, the rear has Tongmen to rely on, advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended, if Tongmen is lost, our army entering Hedong will become a lonely army, a lesson from the invincible and invincible battle, the king can not be unguarded!" Speaking of this, he accentuated his tone and said: "Even if the sky falls, none of the 200,000 troops in Tongmen can be drawn. ”

Regarding the importance of Tongmen, Tang Yin's knowledge is no less than Qiu Zhen's, and he also knows that Tongmen is his own country, and what he said just now was just casually. Seeing that Qiu Zhen's face had changed a little, Tang Yin smiled leisurely, waved his hand and said, "Qiu Zhen, you don't have to worry, I won't use Tongmen's troops casually." ”

"Oh!" Qiu Zhen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that Tang Yin would drill the horns of the bull, and he insisted on sending Tongmen's troops out as well.

Tang Yin stopped talking, lowered his head, and his gaze fell back to the map of Hedong, his eyes rolling, silently thinking. After a long time, he didn't raise his head and asked, "Who wants to attack Xiao Xia?"

His sudden question made everyone present stunned, and after a pause, Xiao Muqing leaned over and said, "King, the last general is willing to go!"

If the Plains Army is to attack Xiaoxia, this battle can be secured! Tang Yin did not agree, nor did he object, and after a change of words, he asked again: "Who is willing to attack Fengcheng?"

This time, everyone reacted, and at the same time, Liang Qi and Ziying said in unison: "The last will go!"

Seeing that someone was inviting Ying at the same time as himself, Liang Qi and Ziying glanced at each other. With their personalities, if they were usual, they would be humble to each other and would not fight hard, but now, Liang Qi and Ziying have no intention of backing down. Liang Qi felt that his father caused the rebellion in the capital during Tang Yin's absence, and he could not escape the blame, and now he is eager to make meritorious service and make up for it, and Ziying also has his considerations, he was originally under Zhong Tian's command, and he later took refuge in Tang Yin's side, and he was a general, but when Tang Yin was awarded, he was also awarded the rank of general, and then the general's number, from the high-ranking officials of the first product, the generals of the Tianyuan Army naturally had many dissatisfactions, and Ziying hoped to seal the mouth of others through his own merits.

After looking at each other, Liang Qi and Ziying said in unison again in a firm tone: "I'll go!"

Seeing this, Tang Yin couldn't help but smile, it's really rare, these two are usually good gentlemen, and now they can fight for a city, it's really interesting. Before Tang Yin could express his position, he heard a big chaos outside the study, and shouts and cheers were heard from time to time. Tang Yin frowned and looked sideways at the Shangguan Yuanwu and Shangguan Yuanbiao brothers behind him.

The two brothers agreed, and both walked out of the study to check outside.
