Final Volume Chapter 62

After Jiang Fan shot an arrow, the scene fell silent, which was so embarrassing. In the end, Tang Yin was the first to clapped his hands and praised: "Good! Jiang Fan's archery skills are indeed well-deserved, haha!" As he spoke, he picked up the bow and arrow again and imitated Jiang Fan. Fan used the same technique as before, shooting an arrow diagonally into the sky. "The domain name of this website is Quanpinjia, please remember the domain name of this website!" However, after he shot the arrow, it really flew into the sky, and the arrow did not plummet downwards. Change direction. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. While setting the second arrow, he turned his head and said to Nie Ze: "Nie Ze, there must be something going on when you return to Beijing this time!"

Nie Ze came back to his senses, stepped forward quickly, nodded and said: "That's right, Your Majesty, the general is returning to the capital this time to introduce someone to Your Majesty."

Tang Yin shot out the arrow again. Just like before, the arrow still flew straight into the sky. He took a deep breath and took another arrow from the guard. At the same time, he turned around, looked directly at Nie Ze, and asked with a smile, "Is this the scholar who came with you?"

It turns out that the king has noticed Xun Xiu. Nie Ze hurriedly raised his hands and said, "This is the man." After a pause, he changed the subject and said, "Your Majesty, this man is Li Shu's subordinate."

"Li Shu?" Tang Yin looked at Nie Ze in confusion.

Nie Ze explained: "Li Shu is the leader of the largest rebel army in Zhendi. He sent Xun Xiu to our country to discuss an alliance with our country."

"I've never heard of it." Tang Yin smiled lightly, twirling his bow and arrow, and bowed his head to the guard guarding the rabbit cage. The guard understood, opened a rabbit cage, and released the rabbit inside. Tang Yin's fingers holding the arrow tail suddenly loosened, the bow string flicked, and with a snap, the arrow flew out, hitting the fleeing hare in the middle, knocking it to the ground. He said slowly: "A mere rebel army dares to come to negotiate an alliance with our country. Do they have the qualifications?"

Seeing that Tang Yin was discussing business with Nie Ze, Shangguan Yuanrang and Jiang Fan also put away their game mentality, handed their bows and arrows to the guards next to them, and stepped aside.

Nie Ze said seriously: "Li Shu's troops should not be underestimated." While speaking, he took the arrow pot from the guard, pulled out an arrow, handed it to Tang Yin, and said: "Now, Li Shu's troops and horses There are as many as 200,000, occupying nearly two counties in Zhendi. If Li Shu's troops continue to grow, they can at least help our country contain tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of Sichuan troops. Even if they are defeated in the end, they can still It greatly consumed the Sichuan army’s combat power.”

Tang Yin squinted his eyes and did not answer immediately, but his thoughts were changing rapidly. If this was really the case, Li Shu, the leader of the Zhendi rebels, really should not be underestimated.

He nocked the arrow and without any need to express his position, the guard spontaneously released the rabbit. A flash of green light flashed in his eyes, and then he shot out an arrow, killing the rabbit that had fled into the forest to the ground. "Go and call that Xun Xiu over!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!" Nie Ze was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed and saluted, then turned sideways and waved to Xun Xiu behind him.

Xun Xiu had been waiting impatiently for a long time. When Nie Ze finally summoned him, he was nervous and excited. He took a few deep breaths and walked forward quickly. Before he could reach Tang Yin, he was stopped by a nearby guard. After he came down, a guard came up to him and searched him carefully to confirm that he was not carrying a weapon before letting him pass.

After walking to Nie Ze's side, Xun Xiu knelt down and kowtowed in a polite manner, and said with a trembling voice: "Xun Xiu, the villain, pays homage to His Highness the Wind King."

"Yes!" Tang Yin just responded lightly, without even looking at him. He looked at the rabbit escaping into the forest affectionately and intently, and shot the arrow in his hand. Whoosh! flutter! A precise arrow sent the hare rolling several meters away before stopping.

"I heard that Li Shu sent you to see this king?"

"Exactly."

"The purpose of this trip is to form an alliance with our country?"

"Exactly."

"You only bring a mouth and want to form an alliance with our country. How insincere!" Tang Yin lowered his head and looked at Xun Xiu who was kneeling on the ground with a smile.

"Reporting to His Highness King Feng, I have brought the defense plan of the Sichuan Army in Zhendi to show the sincerity of my general."

As he spoke, Xun Xiu hurriedly opened the package and took out a parchment scroll. A guard came up, took the sheepskin scroll, looked through it carefully, and then handed it to Tang Yin.

Tang Yin took it and unfolded it. Inside was a detailed topographic map of Zhendi. It also clearly marked where the Sichuan Army was, where the checkpoints, fortresses, camps, and the number of the Sichuan Army were, and even who the general was.

If this map is true, it is obvious that Li Shu put a lot of thought into gathering intelligence. For Feng Guo, this intelligence map is also extremely precious. Tang Yin could not tell whether it was authentic or not, so he handed it over to Nie Ze, who was much more familiar with the situation in Zhendi than he was.

It was also the first time for Nie Ze to see this map. After taking it, he lowered his head and examined it carefully. He was not very familiar with the inland situation of Zhendi, but he was familiar with the border situation of Zhendi. He basically knew where the Sichuan Army was stationed and where the Sichuan Army's checkpoints were. From the markings on the Sichuan Army on the border on this map, he could conclude that this map should be real. After reading it, he nodded slightly to Tang Yin, indicating that the picture was correct.

Tang Yin finally showed a smile on his face, waved to Xun Xiu and said, "Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Highness King Feng!" Xun Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and slowly stood up from the ground.

"Tell me," Tang Yin picked up his bow and arrow again and said slowly, "You are just a mere local rebel, and you only occupy a small area. Why should we, the Feng Kingdom, form an alliance with you?"

Xun Xiu's face straightened up and he said: "Your Highness, King Feng, although our territory in Zhendi is still very small, the people of Zhendi support us, and this is our greatest asset." He paused for a moment. , he added: "The Zhen people hate the Sichuan people, and they hate them unforgettable. However, the Zhen people have always lacked cohesion and cannot organize effective resistance. Now our general has raised the banner of reviving the Zhen country, and he has responded to every call in Zhen land. People with lofty ideals came to vote one after another..."

Before he could finish his words, Tang Yin said quietly: "Back then, it was my Feng Kingdom who sent troops to destroy Zhen. I guess the people of Zhen hated me and the people of Feng also hated me unforgettable, right?"

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding guards raised their hands to grab the swords under their ribs, and Nie Ze's face changed slightly.

Xun Xiu hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness Feng Wang is unaware of something. Although the Feng Army once invaded Zhendi, they came and left quickly and did not harm Zhenren. However, the Sichuan Kingdom was different. They occupied Zhendi. Zhendi, enslaves our Zhen people, kills innocent people indiscriminately, and treats our Zhen people as inferior to livestock. If Zhen people’s hatred is 100%, then their hatred for Feng Country is less than 10%, while their hatred for Sichuan Country is more than 90% !”

Tang Yin was stunned for a moment, then raised his head and smiled. Zhen people are difficult to tame. At the beginning, he did not advocate the division of Zhen Kingdom, nor did he want an inch of Zhen Kingdom's land. Now it seems that his original decision was still very wise.

"Then tell me, after forming an alliance, what can you help our country, and what kind of help do you need from our country?"

"Containing a large number of Sichuan troops for Feng State, so that Sichuan State has to be distracted and look to the west, this is our greatest help to Feng State." Xun Xiu said in one breath without thinking.

Well, that's right. Tang Yin asked again: "What do you want?"

"this……"

"Let's be honest, I think that what you want from me should not be too little." Tang Yin raised the corner of his mouth and shot out the arrow in his hand.

"As His Highness Feng Wang said, now we are in urgent need of armaments, food, and military pay. As long as we can get enough armaments, food, grass, and military pay, our combat power will more than double, and we will definitely become the most powerful force in the Feng Kingdom. Allies."

What Xun Xiu said is true. The only thing Li Shu is not lacking now is soldiers and horses. As for everything else, he is lacking almost everything. Armament is not something you can incite and incite the people to produce in three to five days. It requires the support of a strong industrial base. The production of weapons, armor, and ordnance are all directly related to an army. As for money and food, which affects combat effectiveness, it is even more important. It is the lifeline of the entire army, and the current Li Shu Division does not have these at all.

Relying on the strength of one county alone, it is impossible to support an army of nearly 200,000 people. The lack of food alone is fatal.

If we can form an alliance with Feng Country and receive assistance from Feng Country, then all the difficulties Li Shu is currently facing will no longer be a problem, and the speed of growth will also increase exponentially.

"Oh, it turns out that we need money, food, and armaments." Tang Yin smiled, took out an arrow, played with it casually in his hand, and said slowly: "Of course our Feng Kingdom can make up for the shortage of money, food, and armaments. However, our Feng Kingdom Money, food, and military equipment are not brought by strong winds. They must be put to good use. However, I don’t know if you are qualified to receive assistance from our Feng Country.”

"His Royal Highness Feng Wang means..."

Tang Yin threw the bow and arrow in his hand to Xun Xiu, and said with a smile: "Let's take a gamble. If you can shoot the rabbit that ran away, I can satisfy you with whatever you want. If you fail, , I, Feng Country, will not give you any money or food, and you will also want to keep your head.”

Hearing this, all the generals around laughed. Only Nie Ze frowned. Xun Xiu was a civil servant, not a military commander. He asked him to shoot arrows, and he still hit the target in the dark weather. A running rabbit can't do it no matter what. It is really difficult for the king to impose such conditions.

He whispered: "Your Majesty..."

Tang Yin waved his hand to him, interrupted what he was about to say, stared straight at Xun Xiu, and asked with a smile: "Why, Mr. Xun doesn't dare to gamble? If so, where did you come from and where are you going back? I am not qualified to talk to this king anymore.”

At this time, Xun Xiu was sweating like rain. He had never touched a bow and arrow before, but he wanted to shoot a rabbit in the dark. He could not do it no matter what. He was not even sure that he could shoot it. The bowstring is drawn.
