Chapter 44

Looking at her leaving figure, Tang Yin finally came back to his senses after a while, and turned to look at the others. It was obvious that everyone had just discovered that Ai Jia was a woman, and their eyes were filled with surprise and unconsciousness. Interested in the latest chapter.

Tang Yin tapped his forehead and said immediately, "Wait a moment."

Ai Jia stopped, turned around, and asked, "Is there anything else, General Tang?"

"You stay for now. But let me talk about the ugly things first. In my place, I will not take special care of anyone, whether he is a man or a woman." Tang Yin was not optimistic about Ai Jia, but he suddenly remembered a common saying, men and women match each other. , the work is not tiring, leaving Ai Jia to just be a vase is not a bad idea. Anyway, there are too many vacancies in the Second Corps now.

Ai Jia turned around and said seriously: "I don't need General Tang to take special care of me. I just ask General Tang to treat me equally."

"Very good." Tang Yin was very satisfied with Ai Jia's attitude. He nodded, waved his hand and said, "Please come back and sit down!"

After Ai Jia sat down, he said slowly: "You are all carefully selected by me. I believe you all know your future positions. I don't care about your background or family background. Here with me, I will treat everyone equally." As he spoke, he looked at Ai Jia one more time, and then said: "My principle is very simple, the fittest survive, the unfit are eliminated, the capable are promoted, and the incompetent are demoted. Now the Second Corps To reorganize, I hope you can work together with me to build the army into a good and strong one, and don’t let me down, and don’t let me feel that my vision today is wrong!”

"General Tang, please rest assured, we will go all out!" Li Wei, Liu Zhongsheng, Chen Fang, and Ai Jia all stood up and responded in unison.

Tang Yin looked around at everyone with a smile, paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and said loudly: "Gu Yue, I appoint you as the commander of the first formation of the second corps."

After he finished speaking, Gu Yue sat on the chair for a long time without reacting.

He knew that Tang Yin wanted him to work for him, but he didn't expect that he would give him the position of captain.

Qiu Zhen, who was sitting next to him, cleared his throat, nudged him with his elbow, and chuckled: "Brother Tang has promoted you to the rank of captain, why are you still in a daze?"

Guyue came back to his senses and stammered: "Tang...General Tang..."

"What? You don't accept it?" Tang Yin looked at him funny.

"No, no, no!" Gu Yue was just a captain before, but now he has become a captain. There is no reason why he should not accept it. He shook his head and said seriously: "Thank you, General Tang. I will take your orders!"

Tang Yin continued: "Letian, I appoint you the commander of the second formation of the second army; Li Wei, I appoint you the commander of the third formation of the second army; Liu Zhongsheng, I appoint you the commander of the fourth formation of the second army. "Chen Fang, I appoint you as the commander of the fifth formation of the second corps; Ai Jia, I appoint you as the commander of the sixth formation of the second corps. And," at this point, he looked at Qiu Zhen and asked half-jokingly Said: "Qiu Zhen, can you accept the position of deputy commander?"

Although he had expected it, Qiu Zhen still felt hot in his heart and his body could not help but tremble slightly. He joined the army and waited for this day, the day when he could become a successful person. Now it is even more proved that his decision to assist Tang Yin was the most correct one. However.

He sniffed, suppressed his excitement, bowed and saluted, forced a smile on his face, but his voice was still a little hoarse, and said, "Thank you Tang Da...General Tang!" He understood the truth well, and in such a public place , it would seem inappropriate for him to call Tang Yin Brother Tang again, and it would be too indifferent between public and private matters.

"Actually, I should thank you more!" Tang Yin said quietly.

Qiu Zhen played a vital role in the reason why he could stay in the army. If it weren't for Qiu Zhen's persuasion, he wouldn't know where he would be now.

Qiu Zhen, Guyue, Letian, Li Wei, Liu Zhongsheng, Chen Fang, and Ai Jia were the first batch of Tang Yin's promoted confidants. Later, these people became Tang Yin's most loyal followers and basically formed the core of Tang Yin's power. Core backbone.

In the evening of that day, invited by Wu Mei, Tang Yin took Qiu Zhen alone to attend the banquet at Wu Mansion.

The Feng Kingdom launched troops against the Ning Kingdom and failed miserably. Although Wujia was one of the main combatants, he was much luckier than the Ziyang family and did not receive too much punishment. King Feng still valued and trusted Wujia very much. .

The Dancer Family is one of the four major families in the Feng Kingdom. It has many customers and a huge power. It holds banquets, and most of the famous families in the capital send people to attend.

In front of Wufu Gate, there was a lot of traffic and people.

When Tang Yin and Qiu Zhen arrived, the streets were almost lined with gorgeous carriages. Few people coming to the dinner came on horseback like the two of them.

He and Qiu Zhencheng looked at each other and smiled, both dismounted, tied the reins to the horse posts, and walked towards the mansion.

As soon as they arrived at the gate, before they could go in, the two were stopped by the guards guarding the gate.

The leader of the guards looked at the two of them and asked in a cold voice: "Do you two have invitations?"

Wu Mei only asked Tang Yin to come to the banquet and did not give him any invitation. He shook his head and said, "There is no invitation."

"Then I'm sorry, I can't let you two in."

Tang Yin raised his eyebrows and was about to speak when Wu Mei quickly walked out of the door and said coldly to the leader of the guards: "They are the guests I invited, why did you stop them?"

When the leader of the guards saw Wu Mei, he was shocked and hurriedly saluted: "It turns out that he is the eldest lady's guest. I didn't know this. Please forgive me, eldest lady."

Wu Mei stopped paying attention to him, looked at Tang Yin, smiled sweetly, and said softly: "Tang Yin, come in with me!"

"Thank you, young lady!" Tang Yin imitated the tone of the leader of the guards and said.

"Hey! You sound pretty sweet!" Wu Mei giggled.

While joking, the two of them walked into the house.

There were many people outside Wu Mansion, and even more people inside, including numerous dignitaries and dignitaries. Servants were shuttled back and forth among the crowd, delivering wine and food. It was very lively.

Wu Mei led Tang Yin directly towards the back of the mansion. Wherever she passed, people stood up from time to time to say hello to Wu Mei. Most of them were the fiery glances cast by men.

Only then did Tang Yin realize that Wu Mei was more popular than he imagined.

With her charming appearance and her way of life, he felt that she was not suitable for serving in the army and was more suitable to be a social butterfly. If she was asked to entertain men, there would probably be no one who would not fall under her charm.

The main hall of the dance house.

A tall, middle-aged man with a dignified appearance was surrounded by people like stars holding the moon in his arms. Wu Mei led Tang Yin to separate the crowd and walked up to the middle-aged man. Her tone showed rare respect and a bit of coquettishness, and she whispered softly: "Father, this is General Tang Yin and Tang!"

"Oh?" The middle-aged man turned around when he heard the sound, and looked directly at Tang Yin with his piercing tiger eyes.

He was sizing up Tang Yin, who was also sizing him up.

It turns out that this person is the head of the dance family, Wu Yu.

"My subordinate Tang Yin, please see Wu Xiang." Wu Yu is the right prime minister of Feng Kingdom, and Wu Xiang is his honorific title.

"Haha! I have been famous for General Tang for a long time. When we meet him today, he is indeed very impressive and a talented person!" As Wu Mei said, Wu Yu is a kind person with no pretensions, which makes people naturally feel a sense of intimacy towards him. .

"The dance minister is too polite, and I don't dare to accept it." Tang Yin responded with polite words.

"Huh?" Wu Yu waved his hand and said with a smile: "If it weren't for General Tang, my daughter would still be trapped in Hedong, and it would be difficult to escape!"

Tang Yin did not take any credit. He looked at Wu Mei and said calmly: "It all depends on General Wu's strategy and good command. His subordinates only acted according to General Wu's orders."

To others, it sounded like he was praising Wu Mei, but only Wu Mei could hear the sarcasm and ridicule in his words.

This petty Tang Yin is still obsessed with this matter! Wu Mei secretly gave him a big eye roll. She also understood that the original plan of letting Tang Yin be the bait was too despicable, but after all, it was a thing of the past. If it were now, she would never let Tang Yin take such a risk again.

Of course, Wu Yu, who didn't know what was going on, couldn't hear the other meaning in Tang Yin's words. He felt that it was rare for Tang Yin to be young but not arrogant about taking credit and understand the truth.

Originally, he didn't want Wu Mei to get too close to Tang Yin, but after seeing Tang Yin today, he changed his mind somewhat.

He laughed heartily, obviously very satisfied with Tang Yin, and said: "General Tang, you are welcome here. If you need anything, just give instructions to the servants below."

"Yes, Wu Xiang!"

Because there were too many guests, Wu Yu couldn't talk to Tang Yin more. After a brief chat, he went to entertain other guests.

As soon as Wu Yu walked away, Wu Mei hummed several times beside Tang Yin unceremoniously.

Of course Tang Yin knew what she was dissatisfied about, and asked with a smile: "What? A toothache?"

Wu Mei was so angry that his teeth hurt. She gritted her teeth and asked in a low voice: "What did you mean by saying that just now?"

Tang Yin laughed and said: "Of course I am praising you, so that you can earn face in public!"

"Don't think I can't hear what you mean."

"What do I mean?"

"You are sarcastic and laughing at me..."

"This is what you said, not me."

"You...you damn guy!"

"Haha——" Tang Yin laughed. Even he himself didn't notice that when he was with Wu Mei, he laughed more often than he had in his life, and even learned to quarrel.

The banquet was not as boring as Tang Yin imagined. Of course, being accompanied by dancing girls was an important factor.

The jealous glances flying from all directions did not make Tang Yin feel uncomfortable. On the contrary, he enjoyed it and enjoyed it very much.

His personality and way of thinking have always been different from ordinary people.

By the time the banquet ended, it was already midnight.

Wu Mei personally sent Tang Yin and Qiu Zhen away.

When they were about to leave, she suddenly remembered something and said seriously: "By the way, I have already found the candidates for the other four captains for you. I will take them to your place tomorrow."

"Thank you." Tang Yin waved his thanks, said goodbye to Wu Mei, and left with Qiu Zhen.
