Volume 10 Chapter 221
Chapter 221
Tang Yin's impression of Lingshuang was not bad, but he had a good impression of him. However, when it came to matters of national interest, he would not give in. )
Setting up a garrison in Yu Country is equivalent to implanting the power of Feng Country into Yu Country, so that it can intervene in the affairs of Yu Country and better control Yu Country, so that Yu Country can become a natural barrier to Feng Country in the future.
Looking at Tang Yin and Ling Shuang, who were chatting and laughing on the surface but secretly turbulent, Qingyu could clearly feel that their marriage was not as harmonious as it seemed or rumored.
"Since Sister Wang has no objection, then the matter is settled." Tang Yin turned back and said with a smile to Qingyu: "One hundred thousand garrison needs a legion commander. I think this post of legion commander should be General Qingyu is the perfect choice."
Yes, with the protection of a hundred thousand soldiers, who would dare to do harm to me when I enter the Yu Kingdom again? Qingyu was happy and asked with a smile: "Qingyu doesn't understand why His Highness Feng Wang insists on asking Qingyu to go to Yu Country?"
Feng Guoan's 100,000 troops stationed in Yu State have practical interests and are also very important. The position of army commander is a top priority. He has not clearly expressed his willingness to join Feng State, but Tang Yin arranged for him to be there first. It's really incredible for such an important position.
Tang Yin said bluntly: "I made this arrangement because I don't want to make it difficult for General Qingyu."
"Oh?" Qingyu looked puzzled.
Tang Yin explained: "I think General Qingyu is definitely not willing to go to Feng Kingdom. After all, most of the generals in the Feng Kingdom court have fought with General Qingyu. For a while, General Qingyu will find it difficult to adapt to fighting with these many people." The 'former enemy' became a minister in the same palace. Secondly, the weather in Feng Country is cold. When General Qingyu arrives in Feng Country, his condition will not get better, but will get worse. "
Qingyu listened carefully, but did not express his position, waiting for him to continue.
Tang Yin added with a smile: "General Qingyu will definitely not be willing to stay in the five counties of Mobei. In any case, in the eyes of most Mo people, the new Mo country in the five counties of Mobei is still a treasonous and separatist force. With Qingyu, Coming from a family of nobles from the Mo Kingdom, General Qingyu cannot bear the infamy of treason, and he will feel ashamed of the ancestors of the Qing family. Since he can't go to the Feng Kingdom, and can't stay in Mobei, Shao Fang still can't bear it. To give General Qingyu a place to stay, then going to Yu Country is the best choice."
Unexpectedly, Tang Yin would say such words, let alone that he could be so considerate and considerate of himself. Qingyu was very moved. He said with emotion: "His Royal Highness Feng Wang's kindness to Qingyu, Qingyu has no teeth." memorable."
Tang Yin took out his hand from his sleeve and said with a smile: "I am not doing this to make General Qingyu appreciate my kindness, but to treat you as... a brother!" While speaking, he patted it gently. Pat Qingyu's shoulder.
Qingyu stopped talking and lowered his head, his face slightly red.
What a great Tang Yin! Lingshuang was filled with hatred and anger, and she couldn't tell what she was feeling in her heart. Sometimes, she really felt that Tang Yin was scary, and he was so scheming that it was terrifying.
He placed Qingyu in the Yu Kingdom. On the one hand, he could win people's hearts and win over Qingyu. On the other hand, Tang Yin did not explain the reason, which was Qingyu's intimidating power in the Yu Kingdom. Qingyu once led the Mo army to sweep across the Yu Kingdom. No one could defeat him. The Yu people hated him, but they were also more afraid of him. Letting him serve as the commander-in-chief of the Feng Kingdom's garrison in the Yu Kingdom was tantamount to putting a hand over the heads of all the Yu people. Dadao, no one will dare to provoke the Feng Army in the future. As long as Qingyu is there, the deterrence of the Feng State's garrison in the Yu State is self-evident.
Lingshuang and Tang Yin have been together for so long, and it is still difficult to make a specific evaluation of this person. Sometimes she feels that this person is impulsive and childish, but sometimes she feels that he is cunning and cunning.
Not to mention Lingshuang was surprised, even Qiu Zhen who was standing by took a breath. Tang Yin had not discussed with him any of the establishment of a garrison in the Yu Kingdom and the appointment of Qingyu as the commander-in-chief. As for whether these were the king's own ideas or those of others. He didn't know how to offer advice.
Regarding the garrison, Lingshuang could not object even if she was dissatisfied, and asked Qingyu to serve as the commander-in-chief. Qingyu himself was grateful to Tang Yin, so naturally he would not raise any objections. Tang Yin and Lingshuang and Lingshuang were on the carriage. Qingyu finalized it.
Tang Yin also seemed very happy to resolve these two matters satisfactorily. After getting off the car, he smiled and said to Qing Yu: "From now on, the garrison in Yu State will be under the control of General Qing Yu. One hundred thousand soldiers is enough for an army. General Qingyu, give the army a name!"
Tang Yin valued him, but Qingyu did not dare to forget his identity. He said seriously: "The name of the legion should be given by His Majesty the Wind King."
"Haha -" Tang Yin laughed, flexed his chin and thought for a moment, then said: "I hope this legion can be like General Qingyu, elegant yet fierce, like a soaring eagle, let's call it Feiyu. Army!"
Anyone can see that the Feiyu Army proposed by Tang Yin is named after Qingyu. A warm current flows through Qingyu's heart, and he bows his hands and salutes: "Thank you, Your Highness, King Feng!"
"Yes!" Tang Yin was not polite and nodded solemnly, and then said: "I hope that when we meet again next time, General Qingyu can change his name to call me king instead of being so foreign and polite as now."
"Yes! Your Majesty!" Qingyu changed his words quickly. It is true that he is a commander who can command troops like a god, but he also understands politics. At present, Shao Fang will definitely not give him a way out. There is no place for him in Mo Country. The only way out is to surrender to Tang Yin. Since he has decided to surrender to Tang Yin, he should abandon everything in the past and respect Tang Yin instead.
Hearing his immediate change of words, Tang Yin's smile became even stronger, and he said: "Having General Qingyu help me will undoubtedly give Feng Country another arm and another pillar."
Qiu Zhen was also very happy, and he bowed and smiled: "Congratulations, Your Majesty."
Among the people present, only Lingshuang's face was not natural, her eyebrows were not raised, and she looked worried.
The palace of Cangping was built temporarily, covering a large area, but it was very simple inside. It was similar to Tang Yin's palace in Yancheng. It was renovated after several adjacent large houses were connected.
That night, Tang Yin set up a banquet in the palace to entertain Qingyu and the ministers of Feng and Mo. The atmosphere at the banquet was warm. No matter Feng Chen or Mo Chen, they toasted each other and chatted happily.
The ministers and generals of Feng State were all very easy-going. No one showed a superior attitude, nor did they deliberately show off in front of Mo Chen. Of course, this was also Tang Yin's intention. The situation of the new Mo State was not stable yet, and the help of these Mo officials was needed. It was not wise to offend them at this time.
Feng people did not cause trouble, and Mo people were even less likely to take the initiative to cause trouble for Feng people. Therefore, although there was a gap between the two sides, there was no trace of it on the surface. It seemed that the ministers and generals of both sides were harmonious, just like a family.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the banquet in the hall was removed. Shao Jun first looked around, then smiled and said to Tang Yin: "Your Highness Feng Wang, can't we let the dancers come to the hall to help?"
In addition to women, can't we think of something else? Mud can't be helped! Tang Yin looked down on Shao Jun from the bottom of his heart. Rolling his eyes at him, he said, "Brother Shao Wang, in a few days, His Royal Highness Prince Yu will return to the country, and I will also return to Yancheng."
"Ah, good, good, good!" Shao Jun nodded repeatedly. He hoped that Tang Yin would leave as soon as possible, so that there would be no one who could control him.
Of course you hope that I will leave soon! Tang Yin sneered and said, "The army of my Feng country will return to the country with me."
Ah? Shao Jun shuddered, and half of the wine in the cup spilled out. He didn't bother to wipe his hands. He asked nervously, "The Feng army will also return to the country?"
"Yes."
"Then...what about me, my younger brother...what should I do?" Shao Jun was older than Tang Yin, but in front of Tang Yin, he only dared to call himself his younger brother.
"So, I want to ask Brother Shao Wang, how many troops does your country's central army have now? How is the capital deployed? How are the borders of other regions deployed?"
"This..." Shao Jun sweated coldly, his face flushed, and he couldn't say a word. How many troops did the new court recruit and how the defenses were deployed in various places? He had never even asked, so how could he know the inside story?
Shao Jun couldn't answer, and he was so anxious that he scratched his head and felt like he was sitting on pins and needles. The ministers of the Mo Kingdom who were present shook their heads secretly. Although Shao Fang was cruel, he still had real talents and knowledge. This Shao Jun was good. He was approachable, but he had an empty stomach and only knew how to enjoy himself all day long. He was just a idiot and a good-for-nothing.
Seeing that Shao Jun was in a dilemma, General Shao Yu continued, "Reporting to His Royal Highness Feng Wang, the court has currently recruited 300,000 central troops, most of which are local troops from various places, including 200,000 troops stationed in the capital, and another 100,000 troops stationed at various borders."
Tang Yin clicked his tongue twice and said, "At the beginning, our country's Sanshui Army, Tianying Army, Pingyuan Army, and Huwei Army were stationed in Anqiu and Zhengzhong counties, and they could barely hold on. Now, you only want to hold on to these two counties with 100,000 central troops that were originally local troops?"
Although Shao Yu and Shao Jun are from the same clan and are fence-sitters, they are indeed outstanding in their abilities.
He said seriously: "Recruiting and training soldiers are not things that can be done overnight. Now we can't resist the rebellion forces in the south by our own strength, so... so I hope His Royal Highness Feng Wang can leave the Feng Army to help our country defend."
Tang Yin looked up and thought for a while, and asked: "How many troops does the general want me to help you? How long will it take?"
Shao Yu hurriedly said: "As long as the Sanshui Army and the Tianying Army are stationed in Anqiu, the capital and Zhengzhong County can be defended by ourselves."
Tang Yin was happy and said: "The general is so arrogant. As soon as he opened his mouth, he asked for my two main legions? Two legions, more than 200,000 soldiers and horses, need to eat and drink every day, how much food and wages will it consume for our country?"
Shao Yu is not a fool. Tang Yin is willing to help build a country, so he naturally doesn't want the newly established Xinmo country to be destroyed. Leaving a garrison is necessary. In the final analysis, he just wants benefits. Shao Yu said: "The food and wages of the Feng Army brothers will be borne by our country."
