Although Shangguan Yuanji likes to be idle, Tang Yin can hand over the government affairs of the three counties to him to manage, which shows the importance and trust he attaches to him. Shangguan Yuanji was very moved by Tang Yin's acquaintance, and said: "Don't worry, your lordship, your subordinates will do their best to create a solid backing for your lord!"

Hearing him say this, Tang Yin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, patted Shangguan Yuanji on the shoulder, and said: "Yuanji, after all, you have limited energy alone, it is impossible to run back and forth in the three counties, and you can leave the specific affairs of each county to someone you can trust to manage, and you can just sit in Huaiyang and command the overall situation." ”

Shangguan Yuanji nodded and said with a smile: "My subordinates understand. ”

Tang Yin pondered for a moment and said: "Now the grain and grass in the army are still tight, and the preparation of grain and grass from the three counties, especially Jinguang County, must be paid attention to. ”

"Yes, sir. ”

"Also, the remaining three counties of Jinguang County, if you can use it, you can use it, if you can't use it, you will kick it all out, you don't have to leave a face, let alone have concerns, you just let it go. ”

"Understood. ”

"The taxes and expenses of Jinguang County may be a bad debt, and I will send Master Zongyuanzong here to assist you, after all, he is familiar with the situation in Jinguang County. ”

"Yes! Thank you, sir. ”

Tang Yin finished explaining all the problems he could think of, and only then did he find Zhao Hui and explain that his army was preparing to attack Lehu County in the south recently, and asked him to prepare more military salaries and grain and grass for military expenses. Zhao Hui was not excluded by Tang Yin, and continued to be the position of his county, so he was naturally grateful in his heart, and he looked forward to Tang Yin, and nodded again and again while listening to Tang Yin's instructions.

On the fifth day of Tang Yin's dismissal, Princess Shauna and several of her generals also arrived in Huaiyang, and brought Tang Yin a message that Shauna's letter to Nix had been delivered to Besa City, and Knis also agreed with his mouth, and sent someone to send a message to Duki's king, Alden Allenrich, to inform him of this, and as for the reaction of Duki's city-state, it would be transmitted back soon.

After listening to Shauna's words, Tang Yin was very happy, and King Besa was willing to come forward to help, and at this time, he succeeded nine times out of ten.

Originally, it seemed to him, Shauna and others that it was a safe thing, but something went wrong. After receiving a message from King Nyx of Besa, Alden Allenridge, who was the king of the city-state of Doke, did not agree, but did not refuse, but made a condition that Tang Yin would go to Douky City in person for a while.

Knis, of course, was not satisfied with his reply, and sent someone to Dokie again to ask him what he meant. This time, Alden Allenrich wrote a long letter to Kniets explaining his troubles.

The Duki city-state and Fengning both countries have borders, and the place bordering the Fengguo is a barren land with poor mountains and bad waters, and there is no contact between them, but the area bordering the Ningguo is very wide, although the two sides are not on good terms, but there has been no major conflict, strictly speaking, the Duji city-state is still full of fear of the powerful Ningguo. They borrowed the road for Tang Yin, this is not the end of the borrowing, it will be fine, this is tantamount to offending Ning Guo, what if Ning Guo sends troops to retaliate in the future? So he put forward the conditions for seeing Tang Yin, first of all, he had to look at Tang Yin first, to see if he was really outstanding, and secondly, he had to talk to Tang Yin clearly, it was okay to borrow the road, but if Ning Guo sent troops to retaliate in the future, would he send troops to help.

After reading his letter, Kneis basically understood Alden Allenridge's scruples, and he immediately replied, patting his chest and assuring that if Ning Guo attacked Dookie, Besa would definitely send troops to help. However, Alden Allenrich was determined to meet Tang Yin, and proposed that he would only consider borrowing the road if Tang Yin came in person.

Unexpectedly, Alden Alan Rich insisted so much on this "little thing", and in the end, Kerness had no choice but to send a letter to Tang Yin to explain the matter. However, Knys's letter to Alden Allenrich was delayed for almost a month, and by the time Knys's letter to Tang Yin arrived in Huaiyang, it was already a month and a half later.

During this time, of course, Tang Yin would not stay idle, while he set out to rectify the three counties, he seized the time to train the army under his command, eliminated the old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers in the army, and then recruited strong young people from the three counties to enlist in the army, so that the combat strength of the Tianyuan Army was greatly improved.

At the same time, the exploration horses of Tianyan and Earth Net returned to Jinguang County from time to time to report the latest situation in Yancheng and Tongmen to Tang Yin.

The defenders stationed in Tongmen said that there was no more, and there was no less, about 50,000, during this time, Tongmen had been strengthening the city defense on the east side, and it could be seen that the Ning army was also worried that the enemy would attack from the side of the wind and land. In addition, the 200,000 Ning troops commanded by Zhan Wushuang and Zhan Wushu have all retreated to Yancheng, and Yan Chu, the king of Ning, did not send reinforcements to the two of them, but he did not order the two of them to return to Ningguo, but only placed them in Yancheng, and let him supervise Zhong Tian nearby, so that he could recruit the young and middle-aged people of Fengguo and reorganize the central army as the main force to resist the Tianyuan army.

Yan Chu can be called a young and promising king among the kings, since he ascended the throne, Ning Guozhan has been rapid, the national strength has increased rapidly, and Yan Chu himself is also both civil and military, not only full of scriptures, but also born with divine power, and has an outstanding spiritual martial arts.

In Yan Chu's view, the war between Tang Yinwei's Tianyuan Army and Zhong Tianwei's new king is a civil war in the Wind Country, and the internal friction of the Wind Country, Ning Guo should not intervene too deeply, and the main force of the Tianyuan Army must be the Feng people themselves, and there is no need for the Ning Army to participate in it and consume its own national strength.

This battle outside Jinhua City was a mistake in the overall strategy of Zhan Wushuang and Zhan Invincible, and he should not have fought with the Tianyuan Army, but he was in a hurry to eliminate the outside world, and took over the loss of 200,000 troops in the Ning Army. Although Yan Chu didn't blame the two of them, he was also dissatisfied with them in his heart.

Yan Chu is a talented and energetic king, but he also has a fatal flaw, that is, he is stubborn and self-serving, and he can't hear the opinions of the people around him, as long as he thinks it's right, no matter who can change it. He hoped that Zhong Tian would fight against Tang Yin, let the wind people fight the wind people, no matter who lost or won, it would be a great internal friction for the wind country, which would seriously damage its national strength, and it would be difficult to compete with the Ning country army in the future, but he ignored one point, Zhong Tian, the new king, was unpopular, without the assistance of the Ning country's army, he would not be able to resist the attack of the Tianyuan army by himself, and it would be difficult for Zhan Wushuang and Zhan Wushu to block the 500,000 Tianyuan army with 200,000 troops.

After the defeat of the unequaled and invincible battles, they were not replenished by the soldiers of the Ning State, and the 200,000 exhausted and eager Ning troops gathered in Yancheng, with low morale and no fighting spirit. Zhong Tian's situation is even worse, not only his son Zhong Wen was killed, but the central army was also destroyed, with the current situation to regroup manpower and reorganize the central army, it is not easy to talk about, the documents for recruiting new soldiers are posted, but no one from all over the country has come to join the army, in the end, Zhong Tian can only issue a mandatory order, every family, must have one person to join the army, no one can pay the money, if there is no one and no money, it will be punished for disobedience to the decree, and the whole family will be executed.

This compulsory conscription order was conveyed to the locality, causing the people in all parts of the country to complain and be angry, and the voice against Zhong Tian was even louder, and no one in the local area carried out Zhong Tian's order, and the law did not hold the people accountable, if a family did not obey the order, the local officials could still be punished according to the order, but every household did not obey the order, could they still kill all the local people?

The local government did not send many troops to Yancheng because of Zhong Tian's compulsory conscription order, but the people in Yancheng were not spared, they were under Zhong Tian's nose, and they couldn't hide if they wanted to, whether it was threat or intimidation, in the end, they really gathered more than 100,000 people for Zhong Tian, and in addition, the slaves in Yancheng were brought together, which was barely enough for 150,000 people to fill in the establishment of the central army.

It's just that at present, this central army is not the same as the previous central army, not only do the soldiers have no combat experience, but also have no formal military training, and what is even more ridiculous is that the whole army does not even have a decent general, and the corps commander and the commander of the thousand commanders are basically served by Zhong Tian's disciples.

There will be no unscrupulous generals and no elite soldiers, and the combat effectiveness of such a central army can be imagined.

Listening to the news of the return of the Tianyan and the Earth Net Exploration Horse, Tang Yin couldn't help but smile on his back, Zhong Tian was in a dying struggle, the compulsory conscription order was undoubtedly like drinking to quench thirst, not only did it not work, but it would only lead to greater dissatisfaction among the people, now although Zhong Tian has reorganized the Central Army, it is actually in vain and vulnerable, and Ning Guo did not send reinforcements to Zhan Wushuang and Zhan Invincible, it is even more stupid, it is equivalent to letting the two brothers of the Zhan family and the 200,000 Ning Army under his command sit and wait to die, if you don't take the opportunity to attack south at this time, when will you wait?

At this time, Nix's letter was also delivered to Tang Yin, and after reading it, he didn't think much about it, and immediately decided to go to Dookie in person.

Hearing the news, Qiu Zhen, Shangguan Yuanji and others came to the door one after another, and Lotte and Ai Jia also followed.

After seeing Tang Yin, Qiu Zhen said straight to the point: "I heard that the adults are going to the Duji City-State?"

"Yes!" Tang Yin was very surprised that so many people came at once, he nodded inexplicably, looked around at everyone, grinned, and asked, "Is there any problem? You don't think that Du Ji will have bad intentions towards me, right?"

"It's very likely!" Qiu Zhen said bluntly: "During this time, General Le and General Ai have also collected a lot of information about Ning Guo. The relationship between Ning Guo and Du Ji has never been bad, and there are often contacts between them, and the trade between the two sides on the border is also very prosperous, this time Du Ji's king insisted on asking the adults to go to negotiate in person, but he is afraid of ill intentions and bad intentions!"

Tang Yin really didn't take this into account, after listening to Qiu Zhen's words, he frowned and was silent.
