Volume 10 Chapter 323
Chapter 323
The coalition forces' arrest of Li Hong's remnants was still in full swing. Tang Yin, who had already retreated outside the city, was enjoying his leisure time. After breakfast, he took a walk in the camp, walking east and west, in a leisurely manner.
He could keep his composure, but the generals of the Feng Army below could not sit still.
The Yu, An, and Huan armies ransacked the homes of Li Hong's remnants from time to time, and the gold, silver, and jewels they seized went into their own pockets. Feng Jun, who had done the most credit but was stationed outside the city at this time, could only stare at this, and the soldiers felt that How can I be convinced?
Xiao Muqing, Ziying, Shangguan Yuanrang, Jiang Fan and other generals came to Tang Yin one after another. Seeing that the king was still leisurely walking in the camp, the faces of the generals became uglier. Everyone stepped forward and saluted Tang Yin, "Your Majesty!"
Tang Yin turned around, looked at everyone inexplicably, and asked, "Why are you all here? Is there an accident in the city?"
Shangguan Yuanrang has the most straightforward temperament and speaks the most directly. He tilted his head and muttered: "There was no accident in the city, but the king's attitude surprised me."
Tang Yin was amused and asked with a smile: "Yuan Rang, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. It's not your personality to beat around the bush."
After hearing this, Shangguan Yuanrang stopped being polite and said calmly: "Your Majesty, you should go to the city now and take a look at the gold, silver and jewelry that the Yu, An, and Huan armies have looted. They are all in one carriage and one carriage." If you pull back, is your Majesty not moved at all? Even if your Majesty is not moved, you still have to think about the soldiers below!"
Tang Yin just responded indifferently, then shook his head and said: "You guys are talking, he stepped forward. Not knowing where the king wanted to take him, everyone looked at each other and followed Tang Yin one after another.
Not far away, Tang Yin stopped in front of three giant tents.
These three large tents are about the same size as the Chinese military tents. They are heavily guarded by soldiers, and there are also hidden arrows personnel interspersed among them. They are constantly patrolling around. Just looking at this posture, you can know that this is a place without entering the tent to check. important place.
Tang Yin raised his head to the secret arrow personnel guarding the tent. The two secret arrow personnel guarding the tent door immediately opened the curtain, and Tang Yin strode in, followed by the generals.
After walking into the tent, everyone looked up and saw that the huge tent was filled with wooden boxes.
Tang Yin casually opened the lid of a box. The golden light shone inside, which was dazzling. There were grains of gold sand inside. He grabbed a handful and let the gold sand flow in the seam of his palm. At the same time, he told the generals He smiled and said, "You see, this is the loot we captured from King Zhen's palace. Isn't it enough to fit in three large camps? As for the gold and silver that the Yu, An, and Huan armies have plundered now, they are just small coins. , just let them go, there is no need for us to fight for everything and fall out with them.”
The gold, silver and jewelry that Feng Jun seized from the Zhen King's Palace were not transported out at once, but in batches for three nights.
As for the specific amount, the generals did not know. Only now did everyone know that there were so many treasures that they had snatched from the palace.
Shangguan Yuanrang walked to Tang Yin involuntarily, squinted his eyes and looked at the box full of gold sand. He was stunned for a while before he realized what he was doing. He even lifted the box with all his strength. With all his strength, he couldn't. Moving a corner of the box shows how heavy it is.
While he was secretly surprised, he still murmured unconvincingly: "Who is afraid of too much money? The king doesn't even have a palace now. If our soldiers are in the city now, just plundering the property of Li Hongyu's party will be enough." You can loot a palace and take it back home!"
Tang Yin patted Shangguan Yuanrang on the shoulder and said: "The main reason why I stationed the soldiers outside the city is that I don't want everyone to go to the muddy water. Don't look at the fact that the Yu, An, and Huan armies are only targeting Li Li Hong's remnant party started to attack, but it won't take long for Li Hong's remnant party to be looted. By then, will they let go of other dignitaries and wealthy households in the city? As soon as the robbery breaks out, the situation in the city will get out of control, and Yi Huan will lose control. The country's hatred for Zhenguo is also possible, and it is possible to wash out Xitang with blood. We don't need to bear this infamy for Huan Guo, let them suffer by themselves, we can just sit outside the city and watch the show!"
It turns out that this is what the king meant! The generals finally understood Tang Yin's intentions. Xiao Muqing rolled his eyes and grinned: "Once a massacre occurs, the Zhen people will only resent the Yu, An, and Huan armies, and will not blame our Feng Kingdom. They will even take the initiative to ask for our protection. At that time, the king can take the opportunity to show mercy and move the Zhen people to our Feng country! This is a wonderful move for the king to please both sides and enjoy the benefits at the same time!"
Xiao Muqing brought out his flattery skills again. After hearing this, Tang Yin smiled calmly and said, "I let you say everything. From now on, everything will be decided by you."
If it had been anyone else, he would have been frightened into a cold sweat by his words. Xiao Muqing was not afraid. He also understood Tang Yin's temper very well and praised with a smile: "If it hadn't been for the king's reminder, how could I have thought of this with the stupidity of the general? A little?"
Tang Yin looked up and smiled, shook his head, then looked around at everyone and said, "Mu Qing has made my thoughts very clear. Everyone should go back and stick to their duties and don't act rashly."
"Yes! The general will obey!" Xiao Muqing took the lead and stepped in to salute. If you didn't know Xiao Muqing and just looked at his groveling look, no one would believe that he could be the commander-in-chief of Feng Kingdom's most ferocious Pingyuan Army.
Just as the generals were about to leave, Tang Yin suddenly remembered something and said, "The Zhenjun who previously defected to us cannot be allowed to stay in the city any longer. Ziying?"
"The general is here!"
"You send someone to send a message to the three kings Yu, An, and Huan, asking them to dispatch the defecting Zhen army back to the camp as soon as possible, and then our army will take over with full authority. In addition, Kong Qing cannot stay any longer. Find a way to use this Get rid of people, but you must keep it secret and don’t let the news leak out.”
Among the Zhenjun who defected to the coalition forces, the highest-ranking general is now Lieutenant General Kong Qing.
He once helped Tang Yin smoothly sneak into Xitang. It was also Di You who he introduced to Tang Yin. Through Di You, Tang Yin met Pang Li and thus learned how to secretly sneak into the palace of the King of Zhen. It can be said that Kong Qing was very kind to Tang Yin, but from beginning to end, Tang Yin did not treat him as one of his own. Now that Xitang has been destroyed, Kong Qing is no longer of use. The most terrible thing is that he is very loyal to Zhenguo. How can Tang Yin tolerate his existence even if he fights by himself?
Ziying couldn't bear to kill Kong Qing. For such a long time, Kong Qing had been fighting side by side with his side, going through life and death. However, the king personally gave the order and he didn't dare to disobey it. After hesitating for a moment, he finally handed over his hand and said: " I will obey your orders!"
Ziying followed Tang Yin's wishes and sent his generals into the city to meet with the three kings Lingshuang, Yueze and Li Xin and convey Tang Yin's wishes to them.
Ling, Yue, and Li also felt that having so many Zhen troops staying in the city was too much of a hindrance. Now Tang Yin proposed to send the Zhen troops back to the camp. The three of them followed suit and immediately agreed, and then transferred all the 200,000 Zhen troops who had defected to the coalition forces. Return to the joint venture outside the city.
Gu Anmin was 'seriously injured' and was no longer in the army, and Kong Qing was now the chief general of the Zhen army. When he led his army back to the camp, he happened to meet Ziying who came to greet him. The two walked side by side, chatting as they entered the camp.
On the way, Kong Qing asked Ziying curiously, why did the Duke transfer Zhen's army back to the camp?
Ziying smiled slightly and said: "The situation in the city is chaotic and it is thankless. My king is wise and left Xitang early and returned to the camp to relax. Doesn't General Kong Qing still like to stay in the city?"
Kong Qing sighed secretly. Although Xitang City was not chaotic, there were quite a lot of troubles. He was running around all day long, working hard. In fact, he did not want to be stationed in the city, but he was worried that with the Zhen army in the city, the Yu, An, and Huan armies might be restrained and would not dare to do whatever they wanted. However, once the Zhen army withdrew from Xitang, the coalition forces would still be as they are now. Don't you dare to embarrass the people in the city? He really didn't know what to do.
He looked around, then approached Ziying and asked in a low voice: "General Ziying should be well informed... The kings suddenly mobilized their troops to leave the city. Are they planning something inside the city?"
He has a good relationship with Ziying, and he admires Ziying very much, so he dares to clarify some things in front of Ziying and ask directly.
Ziying was startled for a moment and said: "What are you planning? I think General Kong is overly concerned." Lie Gong sent the Zhen army back to the camp. First, there were so many troops stationed in the city, which caused a lot of inconvenience to the people. Secondly, they are now being detained in the camp. Li Hong has many members and is in desperate need of manpower, so it would be most appropriate for you, Zhen, to take charge of it. "
"That's it!" Hearing what Ziying said was reasonable, Kong Qing had no doubts about it. He nodded in understanding and smiled at Ziying: "It seems that the general is really over-attended."
Kong Qing followed Ziying and walked into the headquarters of the Sky Eagle Army.
After all, this is Fengjun's territory. Kong Qing did not bring too many followers, only four personal guards around him.
After the guests and hosts were seated in the handsome tent, Ziying ordered wine and food to be served. It didn't take long, and a sumptuous banquet was already set up in the tent. Even Kong Qing's bodyguards each had a small table placed in front of them. There is no shortage of wine and food.
The capital was captured by the coalition forces, and the country of Zhen was in chaos. For several days, Kong Qing had no appetite and no interest in the sumptuous food and wine in front of him.
Seeing this, Ziying's thoughts turned around, and she gave a long, pretentious sigh and said, "This may be the last time that General Kong and I will drink together at the same table."
Hearing this, Kong Qing was shocked and asked hurriedly: "What did the general say?"
"The king has given an order," Ziying poured herself a drink and said, "In two days, our Sky Eagle Army will withdraw to the mainland of Feng Kingdom. I don't know if there will be a chance to meet General Kong again in the future..."
