Volume 10 Chapter 482
Chapter 482
Read the full text of Gao Hang being brought into the main hall of the palace by the guards. -His current status is that of a general who surrendered his army and also a general who subjugated his country. In front of Tang Yin and the generals of the Feng Army, he couldn't be tough even if he wanted to.
After entering the main hall, he held his hands high, knelt down and kowtowed, and said: "General Gao Hang, pay homage to His Highness the Wind King!"
Tang Yin looked at him and found out that this person was Gao Hang. He didn't look very old, not yet over thirty. He was also handsome, with dark skin, angular face, thick eyebrows and tiger eyes, and a sense of heroism, but , it was this man who caused his own army of 100,000 sailors to be wiped out. He really cannot be judged by his appearance. After reading it, Tang Yin secretly sighed in his heart. There are many talented people in Mo country, but it is a pity that Shao Fang is incompetent and does not know how to employ people, which caused such a solid foundation of Mo country to fall apart in an instant.
He waved his hand and said, "Get up!"
"Thank you, His Highness, King Feng!" Gao Hang kowtowed again and then stood up. As soon as he stood up, Tang Yin said: "Gao Hang, do you know that I, Feng Ren, hate you to the core of my heart? Before I see you, too many generals have proposed to me that you should be executed!"
Hearing this, Gao Hang showed no fear on his face and said: "Reporting to His Highness the Feng King, the two countries are at war. Everyone, who will win and who loses, depends on his own ability. Death and injury are inevitable. Now I sincerely surrender, if your Highness the Feng King I insist on being executed, but I have nothing to say, but that is not what the Lord Ming did!”
"Oh?" Tang Yin was amused and asked with a smile: "Then tell me what Master Ming should have done!"
"Yuan Xiaoren, a dear gentleman, regardless of past grievances, and employing talented people, this is what the Ming Lord does." Gao Hang replied sternly.
Tang Yin was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but laugh. What a Gao Hang, with just one sentence, he classified Sun Bing and Xu Yan into the ranks of villains.
Before Tang Yin could say anything, Sun Bing and Xu Yan couldn't sit still. Their faces turned red and white, and their lungs almost exploded with anger. Now the king hasn't said he will accept Gao Hang, he has started to criticize Huai. If the king really accepts him, he may not know how to go against him in the future! They both came out, raised their hands to Tang Yin and said: "Your Majesty, Gao Hang is just a general who has subjugated his country, but he still dares to be so domineering, arrogant, and talk nonsense in my windy court. If he really joins our army in the future, then Is it okay? I hope the king will drag this thief out and kill him, so as to comfort the spirits of those fallen soldiers in heaven!"
Tang Yin did not express his position immediately. He rubbed his chin and was silent in thought. Gao Hang looked at Sun Bing and Xu Yan, raised his hands and asked, "Do you know the names of these two generals?"
"Hmph!" Generals Sun Bing and Xu Yan both raised their chins and pointed their nostrils at Gao Hang, ignoring him.
When Qingyu arrived, he helped introduce: "General Gao, these two are General Sun Bingsun and General Xu Yanxu!"
Qingyu and Gao Hang are both generals, and both are young talents among generals, so they naturally know each other.
After hearing Qingyu's introduction, Gao Hang gratefully bowed his hand to him, then looked at Sun Bing and Xu Yan, and said sternly: "It turns out they are generals Sun and Xu. I'm sorry for my clumsy eyes, but I hope the two generals won't be offended. ”
Gao Hang admired the two of them, not because they were very capable, but because they were not afraid of personal life and death in a bad situation and had the determination to die together with the enemy at all times.
Sun Bing and Xu Yan didn't know what Gao Hang was thinking, but after all, they were defeated by others. Thinking that in front of them, Gao Hang must be secretly proud!
Sun Bingbing said in a low voice: "Gao Hang, please don't get too close. Based on what you have done, it is not an exaggeration to die ten times or a hundred times. Now that the Mo Kingdom is dead, you want to switch to our Feng Kingdom, and you want the king to ignore the past grudges." , I can tell you, I can tell you, no way! Today, I will use your dog's blood to sacrifice the flag of my navy to avenge my navy brothers!"
He spoke impassionedly, but Tang Yin's face darkened. Sun Bing seemed to be confused by anger and forgot a very important thing. In Feng Kingdom's court, the person in charge was not him, but Tang Yin.
Qingyu saw that Tang Yin's expression was not good, and he said: "General Sun, in our Feng Army, how many generals are not surrendered generals? You can't just reject people now just because they were enemies before. This is not Feng Kingdom." "
His words were particularly pleasant to Tang Yin's ears, and his originally gloomy expression softened a little.
Sun Bingji shivered and glanced at Tang Yin subconsciously. Sure enough, the king's expression was a bit off. He hurriedly raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, it was the last general who made a mistake. Please forgive me!"
Tang Yin is not a stingy person who will kill or cut into pieces just because you said something wrong. On the contrary, he has always been very tolerant to his subordinates. Even if he makes a mistake, he will try not to punish him if he can. Of course, if he makes a mistake When it comes to fundamental issues of principle, he will not be lenient.
He waved his hand with a smile, indicating that Sun Bing did not need to be polite. Then he lowered his head, picked up the Mo document on the table, and said: "According to the Mo document, there are many island countries outside the East China Sea, and they are interconnected with each other. , constant disputes have led to a large number of refugees, who make a living by robbing the sea, and often harass the coastal areas of Donghai County. Is this possible? "
Unexpectedly, Tang Yin would suddenly ask this question. Gao Hang was startled for a moment and replied: "Reporting to His Highness Feng Wang, this is indeed the case. I don't know why His Highness Feng Wang..."
Tang Yin smiled and said, "The eastern sea disaster has troubled the Mo Kingdom for many years. We have no choice but to add a large-scale navy in the Donghai County area, which costs a lot of money every year. If we want to eliminate the troubles, the best way should not be passive defense, but to go out to sea to conquer and set an example." At this point, he paused and asked, "Gao Hang, if the king gives you a navy, can you lead them to conquer those overseas island countries? Let them dare not offend my Dafeng coastal area again?"
Wow! Gao Hang's eyes lit up. He had written memorials to the Mo Kingdom court more than once about sending troops to conquer the East China Sea countries, but the memorials fell into the sea when they reached the court, without even a response.
Of course, Gao Hang could understand that the imperial court did not want to send troops to attack the East China Sea countries. First, the risk was too great. If all losses occurred, the gains would not outweigh the losses. Second, the battle line was too long and it was in the sea, making it difficult to make timely supplies. Third, the imperial court did not have such a long-term vision to target overseas. All the imperial court wanted was the visible and tangible land in China. Unexpectedly, Tang Yin had just taken over the Mo Kingdom and set the overseas island countries as the primary target for eradication.
Gao Hang admired Tang Yin very much at this point. In a trance, he seemed to have the feeling of meeting a bosom friend. He took a deep breath, bowed to Tang Yin and said, "Your Highness, the King of Wind, in the coastal areas, the disaster of sea disasters is worse than that of tigers and leopards. In Donghai County alone, there are no less than a thousand people who die at the hands of pirates every year, and the loss of property is too much to count. If Your Highness is willing to send troops to attack, it will be a blessing for the people, a blessing for the great... wind!"
Tang Yin was happy. The East China Sea Islands are indeed a disaster. If they can be eradicated as soon as possible, they should be eradicated as soon as possible and conquered together. Moreover, he was a little afraid of the Zhenjiang Navy and the East China Sea Navy of the Mo Kingdom. These two naval armies are too powerful. Don't think that they are now surrendering to their side. What if they make trouble in the future? He doesn't even have a way to deal with them. Let them attack the East China Sea Island Kingdom, which can not only eliminate future troubles, but also consume the strength of the Mo Kingdom Navy, killing two birds with one stone. To put it bluntly, it is just a strategy of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf.
He stood up, walked around the table, and walked down from the throne. When he came to Gao Hang, Tang Yin patted Gao Hang's arm and said, "General Gao came to surrender, and I am very happy." As he spoke, he said to Sun Bing and Xu Yan, "General Gao said something very right. In the past, on the battlefield, both sides served their own masters, and casualties were inevitable. Even if there were conflicts, they should be written off now. General Sun, General Xu, what do you think?"
Tang Yin said so, how could Sun Bing and Xu Yan dare to say no. The two were depressed in their hearts, but they had to pretend to be very happy on their faces, and both praised: "The king is wise!"
"I'm glad that you two can understand." Tang Yin nodded and said, "Gao Hang listens to the title!"
Gao Hang's body shook, and he knelt down again, supporting himself with his hands, and knocked to the bottom.
Tang Yin said: "Gao Hang has great righteousness in his heart. He led the remnants of the Mo army to surrender and made great contributions to our Feng Kingdom. Now, this king specially conferred the title of Earl on Gao Hang and granted him the rank of Lieutenant General. In the future, he will continue to be in charge of the Zhenjiang Navy and the East China Sea Navy."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" After hearing the title, Gao Hang finally felt relieved. It didn't matter what position he held in Feng Kingdom. The most important point was to keep the Zhenjiang Navy and the East China Sea Navy. You know, these two navies have been developed by the Mo Kingdom for generations. They contain too much hard work. The Mo Kingdom has perished, and Gao Hang doesn't want the Mo Kingdom's navy to disappear with it.
"Get up!" Tang Yin pulled Gao Hang up with a smile, and then took Gao Hang and the generals to the Zhenjiang camp to receive the Mo Kingdom Navy.
Taking over the navy of Mo State had a huge impact on Feng State. It was equivalent to turning a country without a navy into a powerful navy country. It was not only about having a powerful fleet, but more importantly, it gave Feng State the technology and talents to build large and advanced warships, which was something that could not be bought with millions of gold.
After taking over the navy of Zhenjiang and the East China Sea, Tang Yin specifically asked Sun Bing and Xu Yan to contact them more and find ways to borrow talents from these two navies to re-establish the Feng State navy, which only had numbers and existed only in theory.
Sun Bing and Xu Yan gladly accepted Tang Yin's order. Originally, they thought that if they accepted Gao Hang, they would lose their position as the chief general of the navy. Now it doesn't matter. They are still the chief general of the navy. Gao Hang will be sent by the king to the East China Sea to fight the island countries. It is estimated that he may not be able to come back within a few years.
