Chapter 718

Hearing Tang Yin say that he would bring gold and silver as an apology, Qiu Zhen rolled his eyes and kindly reminded: "Your Majesty, as far as I know, General Ziying does not seem to value property TXT download."

After what he said, Tang Yin thought about it carefully and felt that his words made sense. Ziying was indeed not greedy for gold, silver and jewelry. Most of the money he usually rewarded him was distributed to his soldiers. He asked: "Qiu Zhen, what do you think I should bring?"

Qiu Zhen smiled and said: "The king just broke his hair and took the oath. I think the king is more sincere when he takes the broken hair than brings ten thousand taels of gold."

Tang Yin was stunned for a moment, then he made up his mind and said, "Okay! Just follow your opinion."

On the same day, Tang Yin only took more than a hundred followers and quickly returned to the Hexi camp.

The current Hexi Camp is empty. There are only some old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers left in the huge camp, among which the wounded are the most numerous. After a day and night of traveling, it was already noon the next day when Tang Yin returned to the Hexi camp.

Entering the camp, he didn't rest for a moment, and went straight to Ziying's tent without even changing his dusty clothes.

Because Tang Yin arrived too quickly, the soldiers below did not have time to report, so Ziying was very surprised by Tang Yin's sudden appearance.

Seeing Ziying sitting behind the desk staring at him dumbfounded, Tang Yin showed a bright smile on his slightly tired handsome face, walked forward, lowered his head, looked down, and said with a smile: "Ziying, you are reading the military book again! "

Ziying finally came to her senses, stood up quickly, knelt down and saluted.

Tang Yin stretched out his hand to help him up, and asked pretending to be concerned: "Ziying, how are you living in the Hexi camp?" After a pause, he said again: "Everyone has left for the expedition, and you are the only one left. , very lonely, right?”

Ziying was very smart. After recovering from her composure, she roughly guessed Tang Yin's intention of suddenly returning to the Hexi camp after a little thought. He had no expression on his face and replied solemnly: "No! I am traveling around with the king, and it is rare for me to have time to rest. I am living a very comfortable life these days."

"Ah, that's it! Haha..." Tang Yin laughed awkwardly. He fucked his hand, sat cross-legged in front of the table, was silent for a moment, and then took the initiative to get to the point and said, "You know everything about the defeat of the Sky Eagle Army when they entered Xiaoling County, right?"

Ziying's body was shaken, her expression did not change, but her face was livid and ugly. He nodded and said: "Yes, Your Majesty, I... have heard a little bit."

"Snapped!"

Tang Yin slammed the table angrily and said angrily: "The army of 60,000 was defeated by Situ Qi and only 10,000 were left. 50,000 soldiers were lost in Xiaoling County. Ziying, how did you choose this deputy commander?" ?”

Ziying lowered her head, paused for a long time and then said: "General Situ is a good general who assists, not a commander who supports the overall situation!"

Tang Yin nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes! You should have told me about this earlier!"

Will you listen? Ziying smiled bitterly in his heart, but he wisely chose to remain silent.

Seeing this, Tang Yin changed the topic and said: "Of course, I don't mean to blame you." He tapped his fingers on the table for a while, and then said: "There are only ten thousand people left in the Sky Eagle Army, and it has ceased to exist in name only, but I still hope The Sky Eagle Army can continue to exist, but it needs to be reorganized. Ziying, who do you think is the most suitable person to form the Sky Eagle Army? "

His intention was obvious, that is, let Ziying recommend herself. Ziyingxiang didn't understand Tang Yin's meaning, so he replied seriously: "Former General Xiao Muqing is the most suitable. General Xiao is the commander of the Pingyuan Army and is very good at running the army. With General Xiao reorganizing the Sky Eagle Army, the king can rest assured." ”

Tang Yin glanced at Ziying and thought to himself, you are really going to pretend to be confused! He chuckled and said, "Mu Qing can't do it! He has to take care of the entire Li Pingyuan Army and is busy with affairs. How can he have time to reorganize the Sky Eagle Army? Furthermore, now that Mu Qing is chasing the remnants of Wei Zheng, he is not in Hexi County. !”

"Oh... then Lieutenant General Liang Qi..."

This time, before Ziying could finish speaking, Tang Yin interrupted impatiently: "Liang Qi is not in Hexi County either."

"General Peng Haochu on the left and General Guyue on the right..."

"They are not suitable either." Tang Yin said patiently.

Ziying proposed one person, and Tang Yin objected to another. In the end, Ziying couldn't help but be happy and said: "These are the people I can think of, but the king is not satisfied with them. It seems that the king already has a suitable candidate in mind." Bar?"

Tang Yin really didn't like Ziying's character of pretending to be crazy and being extremely sarcastic, but Feng Jun really couldn't leave Ziying.

He took a deep breath, stared at Ziying with his dark eyes, gritted his teeth and said, "Yes! I do have a suitable candidate in mind."

Ziying leaned back slightly, lowered his eyes and said, "In that case, why does your Majesty come to ask for your opinion?"

Tang Yin stopped beating around the bush and said straightforwardly: "My choice is you! Ziying, you originally formed the Sky Eagle Army, how about you reorganizing it now?"

Although he had already guessed Tang Yin's intention, his body was still shocked after hearing these words.

Hearing the news that the Sky Eagle Army was almost wiped out in Xiaoling County, Ziying's heart bleeds. From yesterday when he got the news, until now, he hasn't had a drop of water or a grain of rice. In one day, his whole body has... Just lost a lot of weight. He was more anxious and distressed than anyone about the Tianying Army's tragic defeat. Of course, he also blamed Tang Yin in his heart more than anyone else.

Changing coaches on the spot based solely on one's own preferences is not a wise act. The King is fully responsible for what happened to the Sky Eagle Army.

He cupped his hands and said, "I have been dismissed by the king. I believe the king has not forgotten it!"

"You..." Tang Yin was about to get angry, but he still rationally suppressed his anger. He nodded slowly and said, "I am really a little bit angry to dismiss you." As he spoke, he waved to Yuan Wu beside him, who stepped forward quickly and handed a roll of red silk to Tang Yin.

Tang Yin took it, put the red silk on the table, spread it out, and said, "This is my apology to you."

Ziying looked down and was stunned. There was a bunch of broken hair wrapped in the red silk. Tang Yin scratched his hair and said, "See? This is my broken hair. I am using my broken hair to apologize to you. General Ziying, please don't blame me anymore!"

Tang Yin gave his broken hair, which Ziying never expected. Although there was no concept of "body hair and skin, given by parents" in this era, both nobles and commoners attached great importance to hair. It was a great shame to have someone else's hair cut, and it also took a lot of determination to cut your own hair.

Ziying was stunned for three seconds, then he quickly stood up and knelt down in front of Tang Yin, saying in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty... you killed me..."

Tang Yin sighed and said: "Ziying, I dismissed you because I was angry, and it was my fault. Now that the Sky Eagle Army is in trouble, I sincerely hope that you can step forward and save the entire army from the water and fire. The Sky Eagle Army was founded by you, and you also led it by you. No matter how much you resent me and hate me in your heart, can you really bear to see the Sky Eagle Army reduced to ashes from now on?"

As a monarch, Ziying knew that this was the limit when he said this. He knelt on the ground without getting up, and kowtowed forward, asking: "I wonder how determined the king is to let me rebuild the Sky Eagle Army?"

Tang Yin's face became serious, and he said decisively: "Full support! How many new soldiers are needed, how much silver is needed, as long as you report it, I will approve it."

"Thank you, the king!" Ziying clenched his fists and said loudly: "As long as the king supports me, I have the confidence to hand over a prosperous Sky Eagle Army to the king in a month!"

"Okay!" Tang Yin was waiting for Ziying's words. Although he hated his character, he liked and appreciated Ziying's confidence. He stood up, crossed the table directly, helped Ziying up, and said with emotion: "With General Ziying's words, I feel relieved."

Tang Yin abandoned Ziying, causing the Sky Eagle Army to lose soldiers and generals, and almost annihilated. After suffering a great loss, Tang Yin also learned his lesson. He personally returned to the Hexi camp and invited Ziying out again, asking him to continue to serve as the commander of the Sky Eagle Army and be fully responsible for the reorganization of the Sky Eagle Army.

When he returned to the front camp with Ziying, his first report gave Tang Yin a headache.

Borrowing troops.

Ziying did not borrow from the Pingyuan Army, Sanshui Army, or Chifeng Army, but borrowed from Tang Yin's direct army, and asked for 50,000 troops at once. Tang Yin's direct army suffered some losses in the battle of crossing the river, but not much. Later, after the reinforcements arrived, the establishment was completed, and now the total strength is about 120,000.

If 50,000 troops were borrowed at once, the direct army would only have 70,000 troops, which was not enough for the establishment of the legion. In addition, the direct army was brought up by Tang Yin himself, and it was his close army. Although the military style and discipline were not very good, the combat effectiveness was extremely strong. On the battlefield, everyone fought hard. Moreover, the direct army had a deep relationship with him, and their loyalty to him was beyond doubt. Now he was asked to send out 50,000 people at once, how could he bear it? Tang Yin knew clearly in his heart that Ziying said it was borrowing, but in fact it was asking for it. This was a loan without return.

Wu Ying had the most intense reaction to Ziying's proposal. She was also one hundred and twenty against it in front of Tang Yin.

However, Tang Yin finally chose to give up and approved Ziying's application. Soldiers can be recruited again, but there is only one Ziying. In order to restore the vitality of the Sky Eagle Army and revitalize it, he can only make some sacrifices. In Tang Yin's view, this is also a punishment for his original dictatorship.

Ziying began to reorganize the Sky Eagle Army based on 50,000 direct troops and 10,000 remnants of the Sky Eagle Army. Ziying did not blame Situ Qi too much for causing the Sky Eagle Army to be almost wiped out. Instead, he continued to let him serve as the deputy commander of the Sky Eagle Army to assist him.

Situ Qi was naturally grateful to Ziying for his actions. When assisting Ziying, he had the mentality of making up for his mistakes and worked harder.

With the hundredfold efforts of Ziying and Situ Qi, the Sky Eagle Army soon took shape.
