Chapter 250

The three legions of the Plains Army, the Sanshui Army, and the Chifeng Army can be said to be the main force of the Tianyuan Army, and the manpower of the Sanshui Army and the Chifeng Army has been expanded to 150,000, and its combat power is roughly equivalent to that of the 100,000 Plains Army.

After a series of adjustments, the overall skeleton of the Tianyuan Army was basically finalized.

The commander of the Plains Army was Xiao Muqing, the deputy commanders were Chen Fang and Liu Zhongsheng, the commander of the Sanshui Army was Liang Qi, the deputy commanders were Bai Yong and Zhu Nuo, the commander of the Chifeng Army was Li Wei, and the deputy commander was Peng Haochu. In fact, if you look at it carefully, Tang Yin's arrangement is also well thought out. Tang Yin trusted their abilities, but he did not necessarily trust their loyalty to him, so he placed his own henchmen around him, so that not only could each legion be led and commanded by excellent generals, but also his loyalty was enough, eliminating his worries.

After repelling the Ning army, the manpower of the Tianyuan army expanded rapidly, and the overall strength was not weakened, but was greatly enhanced, Tang Yin was ambitious at this time, and had the idea of pursuing the victory, and planned to command the army to continue to go south and attack the last barrier of Yancheng - Lehu County, as long as Lehu County was taken again, the Tianyuan army could directly smash Huanglong and enter Yancheng.

However, at this time, the strategists and staff led by Qiu Zhen came to see Tang Yin one after another and dissuaded him from postponing the use of troops.

Tang Yin was puzzled, his own side was now in a winning position, how long would it take to wait for no soldiers at this time? After listening to his thoughts, Qiu Zhen smiled, shook his head and said, "My lord has overestimated our current form. We do have an advantage over Zhong Tian, but it is not yet a victory, and it is still ambiguous whether we can turn the current advantage into a victory. ”

Frowning slightly, Tang Yin asked, "Why did Lord Qiu say this?"

Qiu Zhense said: "My lord, we now have an army of 500,000, so many people, every day to eat, drink, materials and salaries, this is all money, how can we afford it only by the strength of Tianyuan County, what if the big man waves his troops to fight in the south and the food and grass are not paid? At that time, our advantage will turn into a defeat!"

After hearing his words, Tang Yin felt that he was drenched with cold water, and most of his original surging mood was extinguished, and his face sank, and he looked at Qiu Zhen coldly. Qiu Zhen's words are ugly, but it doesn't mean that they are unreasonable, but even if they are reasonable, it doesn't mean that Tang Yin likes to listen to them. He tapped his fingers lightly on the table and asked, "What does Lord Qiu mean?"

Without waiting for Qiu Zhen to speak, Zong Yuan stepped forward, bowed his hand, and said first: "According to the opinion of his subordinates, the lord still stabilizes the rear first, and obtains the actual control of Guannan County and Jinguang County as soon as possible, with these two counties plus Tianyuan County, it is not difficult to support the army of 500,000, in addition, the lord should also start to send letters to the county heads of other counties as soon as possible, and strive for the support of the county heads of all parts of Gale, in this way, the adults not only have no worries, but also greatly weaken the strength of Zhong Tian's traitors, killing two birds with one stone!"

"En!" Tang Yin nodded when he heard this, he liked to listen to this kind of advice that could give him a practical plan. He pondered for a moment, looked at Zong Yuan and asked with a smile, "According to Master Zong's opinion, how can I control the real power of Guannan County and Jinguang County?"

Zong Yuan smiled and said, "It's very simple, abolish the original county head and set up a new county head!"

Tang Yin's eyes rolled, then narrowed his eyes, and asked, "You mean, let me kill Zhao Hui and Yu Tao?"

"No, no!" Zong Yuan waved his hand again and again, and said: "If you want to get the support of other county guards now, you must treat Zhao Hui and Yu Tao well, not only can you not kill, but you also have to promote the official positions of the two. ”

Tang Yin's mind was racing, nodding as he listened, and when Zong Yuan finished speaking, he naturally looked at Qiu Zhen and asked what he meant. In the depths of Tang Yin's heart, the one he trusts and relies on the most is Qiu Zhen.

Seeing Tang Yin looking at himself inquiringly, Qiu Zhen smiled, nodded and said: "Lord Zong's opinion is exactly what I meant, however, I think that Lord Zhao is loyal and honest, honest and reliable, and can be entrusted with important tasks, and it is better not to move, and Yu Tao is two-faced and three-stabbed, he is really a villain, and it is not easy to let him occupy an important position, you can let him be the chief inspector of the three counties of Tianyuan, Guannan, and Jinguang, even if he is promoted, he has no real power, and he can be easily eliminated when the adults eliminate the rebellion." ”

"Haha-" After Tang Yin heard this, he looked up and smiled, and said, "What Lord Qiu and Master Zong said is very true, just do what you two want!"

Qiu Zhen said: "Your Excellency can summon the county heads and county heads of the three counties in Huaiyang, the capital of Jinguang County, listen to their words, watch their deeds, and judge whether these people are left or abandoned, and your lordship can also judge them face to face!"

"En!" Tang Yin nodded again and said, "Lord Qiu, you can arrange this matter!"

"Yes, sir!"

Tang Yin relied heavily on Qiu Zhen, and Zhang Zhe and other strategists didn't think anything about it, but Zong Yuan saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart. When Tang Yin and Qiu Zhen's words came to an end, he arched his hand and said, "My lord, my subordinates have a plan for Ning Bing, I don't know if I should talk about it or not?"

Tang Yin is actually not very interested in the intrigue of power schemes, and he is really interested in the military aspect. Listening to Zong Yuan's words, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he said with a smile: "Since Master Zong has defected to me, he is his own brother, you don't have to be polite, just say anything!"

When Zong Yuan heard this, his heart warmed, he hurriedly saluted, and then said: "This time our army won a big victory over the Ning army, which hurt the vitality of the Ning army, but it did not hurt the vitality of the Ning country. In the eyes of his subordinates, as long as our army can capture one place, it can isolate the reinforcements of the Ning country, and the rest of the Ning army can be trapped in our wind land, which will be extremely beneficial to our army!"

"Oh, where are you talking about?"

"Tongmen!"

"Tongmen?" Not to mention that Tang Yin was taken aback when he heard this, Qiu Zhen and the others were also shocked, and they all turned their heads to look at Zong Yuan.

Zong Yuan said: "Tongmen is the western gateway of my gale and the eastern gateway of Ningguo, no matter who can occupy Tongmen, they can gain absolute superiority over the other party." If our army can occupy Tongmen, not only will Ningguo be unable to send reinforcements recently, but both the unequaled and the invincible will have to be trapped alive in the territory of our gale!"

After he finished speaking, Tang Yin and the others were speechless for a long time.

The importance of Tongmen is well known to the world, but how could the Tianyuan army, which was in Jinguang County, occupy Tongmen, which was thousands of miles away? Moreover, Tongmen had been ceded to Ning by Zhong Tian, and now belonged to the territory of Ningguo, and a large number of Ning troops were stationed in it, how could they be defeated, and if they marched to Tongmen, they would definitely be startled, and they were afraid that they would have to fall into the encirclement of the Ning army before they arrived at Tongmen.

Everyone pondered carefully for a while, and then shook their heads, feeling that this plan was too unrealistic and there was no way to do it.

Zong Yuan saw everyone's expressions in his eyes, he smiled slightly, and said: "The soldiers are dangerous, so they can achieve miraculous results! It is precisely because Tongmen has now been ceded to Ning Guo that there will not be too many Ning troops stationed there, and the defense of Tongmen is strong in the west and weak in the east, as long as our army can suddenly kill and surprise it, it will definitely be able to succeed in one blow!"

"How can you be surprised?" Zhang Zhe shook his head and said: "From Jinguang County to Tongmen, we have to pass through Lehu County, the capital and the three counties west of the capital, in addition, the two hundred miles of wind land on the west side of Tongmen have been ceded to Ning Guo, and there are Ning people everywhere, how can our army approach Tongmen without knowing it and not leaking a little rumor?"

His question is exactly what everyone thinks, although the sneak attack on Tongmen is a strange plan, but it is difficult to implement and not very realistic.

Zong Yuan seemed to have expected someone to ask this question, he didn't answer, but looked at Tang Yin and asked with a smile, "Your Excellency is very friendly with the city-state of Besa of the Morphis Federation, right?"

His question was tantamount to nonsense, if Tang Yin had a bad relationship with the Besa people, how could Besa's heavily armored cavalry rush over to reinforce Tang Yin, and even Princess Besa went there in person.

Tang Yin frowned slightly, raised his head and said, "Keep talking!"

Zong Yuan's eyes were delighted and faint and said: "If our army goes to the territory of the Wind Country, it will naturally be informed by the Ning people, and even before it reaches Tongmen, it will be blocked by the Ning army, but if our army does not go to the wind and detours from the territory of the Morphis Federation to Tongmen, the Ning people will not be able to detect it!"

"Ahh

As the saying goes, a sentence wakes up the people in their dreams, and so many strategists and staff members present, none of them thought of borrowing the way from the Morphis Federation and detouring to Tongmen. The Morphis Federation is not the country of the city-state of Besa, but is composed of more than 20 large and small city-state alliances, but among them, the city-state of Besa is the strongest, and it is also the most fierce and belligerent, often using troops against the wind, plundering and killing, which has made the people of the wind miserable for decades, and now that Tang Yin has a good relationship with him, he can naturally get in touch with other city-states through the city-state of Besa, and it must not be too difficult to borrow such a small thing.

To the west of Tongmen is the land of wind, to the east of Tongmen is Ningdi, and to the north of Tongmen, less than twenty miles is the territory of the Duki city-state of the Morphis Federation, twenty miles away, even if the infantry starts a rapid march, it can be reached in half an hour, even if it is discovered on the way, it is difficult for Ningguo to gather a large army in such a short time.

Tang Yin took a deep breath, his eyes flashed, and he couldn't help but look at Zong Yuan with admiration. He rubbed his chin and said quietly: "In this way, our army can completely try to sneak attack Tongmen!"
