At the same time, he also ordered the entire county to enlist troops, expanding the Pingyuan Army from the original eighty thousand to one hundred thousand. He also expanded the two counties’ twenty thousand to fifty thousand, and expanded the size of the commanderies’ ten thousand to thirty thousand. In this way, they could guarantee that they would have two hundred thousand soldiers in the Heaven Pass, and another thirty thousand could be used for manoeuvres.
At this moment, regardless of whether Tang Yin was forced or if he took the initiative, he truly wanted to fight with his Imperial Court.
However, Qiu Zhen’s worries were unnecessary. Half a month later, the history official of the Imperial Court arrived at the Shunzhou and brought the order from the Feng King.
The Zhan Hua did not check on the matter regarding Tang Yin’s murder of him, or rather, he was not in the mood to care about it right now. The Ning Country army of 400,000 people attacked Yan City, and all the places where the Feng Country s came from sent out reinforcements, with an army of 200,000 people forming the Imperial Court, and with the help of the Directly Subordinate Army s team, they joined forces to fight against the Ning army.
Zhan Hua’s orders were few in number, and were written: “Yu He is a country of chaos, and should be punished, his position will be temporarily taken by General Tang Yin.”
Receiving this decree, Tang Yin could be considered to be relieved. In the future, he would be the personally bestowed County Magistrate by the Sovereign King, so it was reasonable for him to control the Tianyuan County.
Qiu Zhen and the rest were even more elated, their current strength was not strong enough, it would be good if they could not clash with the Imperial Court.
The history official passed Zhan Hua Zhan Hua’s orders to him, then said with a dry smile: “Master Tang, this official has something to ask of you.”
County Magistrate was the highest official in the region, even if they were transferred to the King’s Court, their rank would still be considered high. But historians were only lower ranked officials of Imperial Court, they were naturally very courteous to Tang Yin.
Tang Yin was ecstatic, after receiving the order, he said with a smile: “Please speak!”
“When this official was passing by Heaven Pass, I realized that there were a lot of soldiers there. I wonder what Master’s intention is?” The historians asked casually, but in reality, they had their suspicions. They were fine, at such a dangerous and important level of Heaven Pass, they had hoarded a large number of soldiers, causing people to have no choice but to doubt Tang Yin’s intentions.
Hearing that, Qiu Zhen’s face changed. Just as he was about to answer, Tang Yin had already said while laughing: “The capital is in trouble, how can my Tianyuan County be kept out of this matter? The troops stationed at the Heaven Pass are actually the reinforcements that are preparing to go to the capital, it’s just that the position of County Magistrate is empty, I have no right to order them around, thus the army has not moved yet.”
“Oh!” “So that’s how it is!” The historic official was relieved and nodded his head, smiling, “Then I hope that you can send troops as soon as possible to resolve the situation in the capital!”
“Of course.”
“In this way, this official will return to the capital and report back to your highness. Master Tang, this official will take his leave! ”
After sending off the historians, the people who were led by Qiu Zhen all bowed to Tang Yin and said in unison: “Congratulations, Sir Gao Sheng!”
Although there was only a difference of two levels between the County Head and the county chief, the difference in power that was grasped was too big. The Tianyuan County had a total of more than three million people, and there were three counties: Pingyuan County, Sanshui County, and Chifeng County. In addition to the Shunzhou that was directly under the jurisdiction of the county, as well as the surrounding villages and towns, the territory that Tang Yin controlled was many times larger than before.
After receiving the official bestowment, Tang Yin took over the authority of the County Head, and the first thing he did was to gain authority.
As for the subordinate officers of the two counties, Tang Yin accepted Shangguan Yuanji’s suggestion and did not move for the time being. If all the officials from the two counties were to be removed from their positions, it was likely that the two counties would experience chaos and fear, and they would have to take it slowly if they wanted to leave. In addition to that, vice County Magistrate Zhang Zhi Cheng was also pushed to the end by Tang Yin, and was no longer given any official positions. The positions of vice County Magistrate were taken by Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen, just like back in Pingyuan County, where the former was in charge of internal affairs and the latter was in charge of military affairs, with a clear division of duties.
As his subordinates had more Tianyuan Army, Tang Yin had no choice but to make appropriate transfers to the generals under his command.
Xiao Muqing acted as the commander of the Pingyuan Army, with ten legions under his command. Bai Yong acted as the commander of the Sanshui Army, with five legions under his command. Originally, there were only five legions of Pingyuan County and five Company Leaders, but with Zhang Zhou’s death, there were only four of them left. Right now, the number of Division Leaders had increased to twenty-three, and the Regiment Commanders and Vice Regiment Commanders were extremely scarce, so they could only be selected from the thousands of Company Commanders in the Pingyuan Army. In addition, Tang Yin had specially picked a few with outstanding abilities from the hidden arrows to serve as Division Commanders, this was the first time Dark Arrow had transferred talents to the military, allowing the Spirit Cultivator of Dark to officially enter into the upper echelons.
Yu He had been killed by Tang Yin, but the manor was not empty. He still had over a hundred family members imprisoned in the County Head Palace, and at this time, Tang Yin showed a cold and cruel side, with a single order, he executed all of Yu He’s family of over a hundred people.
This was called cutting the grass by its roots. If they were to leave Yu He’s family, who knows when they would come out to seek revenge for Yu He, or look for an opportunity to take revenge on Tang Yin, staying would be troublesome and would also become a disaster.
As for Yu He’s hanger-ons, they were all dismissed, and the guards, servants, and Maidservant s of Yu He’s residence were all replaced by the people from the capital of the Yuanyan County.
Ever since Tang Yin took control of the Tianyuan County, a huge change happened to the military and political world, but because Shangguan Yuanji and Qiu Zhen were there to support him, the Tianyuan County was not unstable, and the citizens only knew that Yu He was the enemy, so after he was executed, the position of County Magistrate was taken over by Tang Yin.
County Magistrate Mansion.
Tang Yin moved to the County Magistrate Palace, and naturally, Fan Min also came with him. It just so happened that they expanded the business of Fan Family all the way to Shunzhou.
The condition of the County Magistrate Palace was much better than that of the county capital. What made Tang Yin the happiest was the Silver Bank of the County Magistrate Palace, where Yu He had kept his wealth for many years, and the amount was so large that it was calculated for a full three days. With just seven to eight million silver taels added to the miscellaneous items of gold, silver, and jewelry, as well as the antiques and paintings, that amounted to more than ten million silver taels.
On this day, early in the morning, after Tang Yin had woken up, he was stretching his limbs in the courtyard. Fan Min leisurely came over and at the same time, brought a little girl who was only around eight or nine years old.
This little girl was Zhang Zhou’s daughter, Zhang Yu. The little girl was dressed up as a rich and beautiful girl, just like a little princess. Tang Yin did not make a mistake. Ever since the day he adopted Zhang Yu, he treated her as his own little sister. Not only did he let her live a rich life without worry, he even invited a special scout.
She had just taken over the Tianyuan County, and was busy with work. She had not interacted with Zhang Yu very much, but Fan Min had interacted with her the most. Perhaps because they loved each other, Fan Min liked Zhang Yu a lot and kept her by her side all day.
Seeing Tang Yin dancing with his sabre in the courtyard, Zhang Yu’s eyes revealed a hint of timidness. He hid behind Fan Min, only exposing half of his head, looking at Tang Yin curiously with her big black eyes.
“There’s no need to dance anymore. You scared Xiao Yu to death!” Fan Min held Zhang Yu’s hand, and did not dare to approach Tang Yin anymore, as she stood at the side and shouted in dissatisfaction.
Fan Min’s relationship with him had become even closer. Now, Fan Min had already become the mistress of the County Head Palace, and even sometimes, she would ask Tang Zhong to look into the Palace’s expenditure.
Tang Yin kept his blade and smiled to the two of them. Seeing Zhang Yu looking at him timidly, he sighed, walked up, bent down, and asked: “Xiao Yu, are you used to living here?”
Zhang Yu did not directly answer, but looked at Fan Min once, and then nodded gently.
Zhang Zhou’s daughter was good everywhere, but the fact that he was afraid of living made Tang Yin feel very awkward.
Seeing the disappointment in Tang Yin’s eyes, Fan Min quickly said: “Big Brother Tang, do you know that Xiao Yu is very clever? I will show her the account books from the shop, she will remember everything after one look!”
She did not exaggerate, even she sighed at Zhang Yu’s photographic memory.
“Oh?” Tang Yin was startled at first, but after that, he laughed heartily and said to Fan Min: “Even if you want to cultivate Little Jade into a merchant like you, she’s still young, so don’t look at books for her.”
“I know!” Fan Min stuck out her tongue at him.
She herself wasn’t more than twenty years old, and since she was only a child, how could she control Zhang Yu, who was no less than ten years older than her? Tang Yin thought, if Zhang Yu was really that smart, he would have found her a teacher by now.
After eating dinner with Fan Min and Zhang Yu, Tang Yin went to the main hall of the County Head Palace to discuss military matters with Qiu Zhen and the other generals.
Right now, they were still debating whether to help Yan City or not.
Shangguan Yuan was the most decisive main fighting faction for giving in to war. He decided to follow Tang Yin. Although the latter did not allow him to take charge of any sort of troop, but gave him the position of the chief Pioneer of Tianyuan Army.
Qiu Zhen was against sending out the troops, his opinion was that since their position in the Tianyuan County was not stable, they were not suited for large scale use, and although there were 23 divisions under the Tianyuan Army, that was only in terms of formation, until now, including the new recruits that had been collected, their actual strength was only around a hundred thousand.
On one hand, he wanted to immediately send troops and recuperate first, on the other hand, it was difficult for Tang Yin to make a decision.
Fortunately, right now, there was no time to pay attention to the Imperial Court, and no one had high hopes for the distant Tianyuan County.
It was just as Qiu Zhen said, now was a good time to recuperate, so it was not suitable for him to call out troops. But if he did not send out troops, and waited for Imperial Court to defeat Ning Jun, and did the statistics after the battle, and only found out that Tianyuan County did not send out troops to assist, how would Zhan Hua look at him? Once he attracted the attention of the Imperial Court, then the case of Yu He might be brought up again.
After thinking about it, Tang Yin decided to send some troops, but something suddenly happened to hold him back.
