Volume 10 Chapter 275

Chapter 275: Gong Song's words surprised Tang Yin. The latter paused for a moment and said: "People like Mr. Gong who are willing to be loyal to the Allied Forces are the latest chapter of the Allied Forces' blessings!"

"No! Weichen will not be loyal to the coalition forces." Gong Song immediately denied it and lowered his voice: "Weichen doesn't understand what the kings are like and doesn't want to understand. However, Weichen trusts His Highness Feng Wang and can only Trust His Highness the Wind King.”

Tang Yin raised his eyebrows slightly, met Gong Song's eyes, looked at him for a while, he smiled, and said: "I am deeply gratified by Lord Gong's trust in me. No matter what Lord Gong's plans are in the future, where he wants to go , the door of Feng Country will always be open for Lord Gong, and there will be a place for Lord Gong in Feng Country’s court!”

There's no need for that! Gong Song muttered in his heart. He had never thought of leaving Zhen Kingdom, let alone defecting to Feng Kingdom. He simply admired and trusted Tang Yin.

However, Tang Yin is the Wind King, and it is a great honor for him to be able to say such things to Gong Song. Even if he refuses, he cannot say it outright. He cupped his hands and said with a smile: "I would like to thank His Highness Feng Wang for your kindness!"

"Originally, Wei Chen also planned to keep His Highness King Feng and other princes to have meals in the city, but... not all soldiers could accept Wei Chen's idea. Therefore, in order to avoid unexpected things, Wei Chen could only send Feng as soon as possible. Your Highness is out of the city and I hope you won’t take offense if you are negligent." Gong Song said it very tactfully. Not to mention that some Zhenjun soldiers could not agree with his approach, even many people in Nanyue would not agree. Once trouble broke out, even the county of Gong Song might not be able to control the situation. For fear of long nights and many dreams, he did not dare to let Tang Yin and others The three kings stayed in the city for one more second.

Tang Yin nodded in understanding and sighed: "Master Gong has done enough. If you still feel that there is any neglect, it will make me feel bad."

Hearing this, Gong Song grinned involuntarily and saluted Tang Yin again.

At this time, Yue Ze and Li Xin also walked out of the city gate under the protection of many guards. When they saw Tang Yin and Gong Song chatting happily, they came forward and asked with a smile: "Why is Brother Tang so happy talking to Mr. Gong?" ?”

"Nothing, I just wanted to ask Mr. Gong about the history of Nanyue City." Tang Yin didn't want Yue Ze and Li Xin to notice Gong Song's closeness to him. He said with a smile: "You two brothers don't know, Nanyue City has a history of more than 800 years, it can be regarded as an ancient city!"

When Yue Ze and Li Xin heard this, they were immediately interested. Neither of them had any interest in the history of Nanyue. After Tang Yin finished speaking, the two of them said a few perfunctory words and walked away.

The five-nation coalition forces of Feng, Yu, An, Huan, and Zhen, with millions of soldiers and horses, together with the army's grain, grass, and baggage, took most of a day to pass through Nanyue City, from dawn to dusk.

By the time the entire army had passed, it was late at night, and the coalition forces did not plan to station near Nanyue and were preparing to march overnight. The four kings Tang Yin, Lingshuang, Yue Ze, and Li Xin said goodbye to Gong Song.

Before leaving, Tang Yin did not forget to remind him: "Sir Gong, in the future, the grain, grass and materials supplied by our army will inevitably have to pass through Nanyue, and we will also need a lot of help from Mr. Gong!"

"Don't worry, Your Highness, King Feng, I will definitely cooperate with you to ensure that the major events of the coalition are not delayed!" Gong Song said seriously.

"This is the best!" Yue Ze interjected, shaking his head and saying: "If the coalition's war is delayed because of you, and the * coalition forces turn back, your Nanyue City will probably be destroyed."

After leaving the east city of Nanyue, Yue Ze also found that the city defense on the east side of Nanyue was very weak. Compared with the city defense on the west, there was a huge difference. If they attacked from the east, even Yue Ze could see that his own army would not waste any time. The defense can be broken by just blowing the dust.

Gong Song is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death. He is willing to let the coalition troops pass in order to save Zhengguo and promote Prince Li Dan to the throne. He helped the coalition forces, but not only did he not get any gratitude, but he was also threatened by Lai Yue Ze*nu. He was furious and his face darkened. Just as he was about to speak, Tang Yin spoke first and scolded with a hint of dissatisfaction: " Brother Yue Wang, since Master Gong is willing to help, how can he turn around and hinder the coalition forces? Brother Yue Wang is too worried, Master Gong is not such a capricious person!"

"Of course it's the best if that's the case." Yue Ze also heard Tang Yin's complaint, grinned widely, and laughed dryly.

No longer giving him a chance to ramble, Tang Yin said to Gong Song: "Master Gong, let's say goodbye. I believe we will meet again soon."

"I would like to send you your Highness King Feng!" Gong Song first saluted Tang Yin, and then said, "I would like to send you your Highness King Yue, Your Highness King Huan, and Your Highness King Jade!"

Tang Yin waved his hand, got on his horse, looked back at Nanyue City in the night, no longer delayed, urged the horses, and continued to lead the army westward.

After passing Nanyue and heading west, we are close to the junction of Xiangshan County and Longhu County. As long as we pass through Longhu County, the coalition forces can go straight to Xitang.

It can be said that Longhu County in front is the last barrier for the Zhenguo capital. Of course, Longhu County's military strength is unmatched by other places.

Yue Ze and Li Xin had always been pampered and could not bear the pain of marching, especially now that they were marching day and night. Not long after leaving Nanyue, the two of them felt tired and sleepy. They both proposed to Tang Yin that the entire army should be stationed temporarily and wait until dawn before leaving.

Tang Yin shook his head in opposition. Longhu County was the last barrier of Xitang. There were a large number of local troops of Zhen State stationed here, and the central army of Zhen State would come to reinforce at any time. It would be extremely difficult to advance. Now that they had successfully passed Nanyue without firing a single shot, it must have been something that Longhu County had never expected. If they did not take this opportunity to attack them by surprise, it would be a waste of a great opportunity.

His words made sense, but Yue Ze and Li Xin still felt that it would not cost them a few hours to defeat the enemy. They could rest for half a night and let the soldiers have enough energy and strength. When they were on the battlefield, they could also exert their full strength.

Tang Yin smiled bitterly. There was no such thing as not suffering in war. If he was afraid of suffering, he should not have chosen to join the army in the first place! Seeing Yue Ze and Li Xin's firm attitude, and the soldiers of An Army and Huan Army were also tired and yawning, he pondered for a moment and said: "Let's do this, the Central Army and the Rear Army stay here to rest, and the Front Army will continue to move forward and strive to enter Longhu County before dawn."

The coalition forces of Feng, Yu, An, Huan, and Zhen, with millions of troops, could not all gather together. They were divided into the Front Army, the Central Army, and the Rear Army, which are the so-called three armies.

The Front Army has 100,000 troops, the Central Army has 700,000, and the Rear Army has 200,000. As monarchs, Tang Yin, Lingshuang, Yue Ze, and Li Xin are in the Central Army with the largest number of troops.

Hearing that the central and rear armies could stop to rest, Yue Ze and Li Xin no longer objected. They nodded and said, "That's good. The front army can attack by surprise without affecting the combat effectiveness of the entire army."

Tang Yin said, "I will continue to travel with the front army, and I can be regarded as a pioneer."

Yue Ze did not express his opinion, but Li Xin persuaded him with some concern, "Brother Tang, don't fight so hard? We don't know what the situation is ahead, but what if there is an accident? I think Brother Tang should stay with us in the central army!"

Tang Yin smiled and said, "What kind of accident can there be? If there is an accident, it is better to have a monarch on the scene to control the situation than not having one. Strong."

"But..."

"I appreciate the kindness of Brother Li, but don't worry." Tang Yin said with a smile: "I guess there won't be any accidents."

Seeing that he was full of confidence, Li Xin didn't want to persuade him anymore, but Ling Shuang said: "My sister is willing to go with you."

Tang Yin shrugged indifferently and said: "Okay, if you don't mind the hardship."

Ling Shuang smiled and said: "My brother underestimates me. I'm not someone who is afraid of hardship."

Her casual words made Yue Ze and Li Xin blush, but the two of them pretended to be deaf and dumb in tacit understanding, and no one responded.

Tang Yin and Ling Shuang went to the front army and led the front army to continue the forced march. The front army of the coalition army was mainly composed of the Zhen army, and the Feng, Yu, An, and Huan armies were supplemented. The main general of the front army was not Zhen, but Ling Hui, the general of Yu country.

With the arrival of Tang Yin and Ling Shuang, the strength of the front army increased. The guards accompanying the two alone totaled more than 10,000 people.

Traveling late at night in an unfamiliar place, it is easy to go wrong or get lost. Fortunately, the main force of the front army is the Zhen army. They are familiar with the land of their own country and march westward overnight. The speed of the whole army is still very fast.

After rushing for most of the night, the sky has already turned white. Looking forward, the mountains in front have become bare, and what comes into view is a piece of earth yellow, which makes Tang Yin and Ling Shuang have an illusion that they have returned to Guping County.

Just as the two of them were looking out, a general in front of them turned his horse and ran over. When he came close to Tang Yin and Ling Shuang, he first bowed his hands and saluted, then pointed forward and said, "Your Highness Feng Wang, Your Highness Yu Wang, that is Longding Mountain. Entering Longding Mountain means entering Longhu County."

"Yes!" Ling Shuang nodded and asked, "General Kong, it is said that there is a fortress on the border of Longhu County?"

The general's name is Kong Qing, and he is also Gu Anmin's confidant. He said seriously, "That's right! It's Longding Fortress, located behind Longding Mountain. There are about 20,000 troops stationed there. The main general is Hou Qiu, and the military force should not be underestimated."

Ling Shuang asked, "What is the relationship between this Hou Qiu and your General Gu?"

If we can use Gu Anmin to persuade the other party to surrender without fighting, it would be great.

Kong Qing smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Hou Qiu is the confidant of General Nie Ze, and my general, that is... water and fire can't mix!"

Nie Ze! Ling Shuang had only heard of this person, but Tang Yin was very familiar with this name.
