Tang Yin in another world
"I just don't want to see you die." Tang Yin said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Qiu Zhen couldn't tell whether he was moved or angry. He gritted his teeth and said: "When I decided to follow Tang Da Ge from the start, I had already made up my mind to live and die with him, so I must go."
Tang Yin looked at Qiu Zhen for a while, then suddenly smiled and said: "To live or die together, this is the decision you just made, right?"
One word broke his thoughts, Qiu Zhen's old face blushed, but he immediately calmed down and said emotionally: "No matter if it was in the past or just now, in short, Brother Tang is someone I am willing to assist with all my heart. If you die, I think I will never find another person like Brother Tang again, then what's the point of me living?! He paused for a moment, and his tone became firm: "I want to go with you!"
Qiu Zhen's words moved Tang Yin extremely, no one had ever treated him like this before, looked at him with such importance. His icy heart suddenly became warm and fuzzy, but the more it was so, the more he couldn't let Qiu Zhen accompany him.
He pressed down on Qiu Zhen's shoulder, his expression serious as he said: "Qiu Zhen, actually... I'm not a person who belongs in this world. If I really were to die in battle, it wouldn't be a bad thing either. Perhaps if I came from somewhere, I could return there. In this world, being able to make a friend like you is already enough for me." Even if he really did end up dying, he silently added another sentence in his heart.
A person who has never had friends will cherish them even more once they have found a true friend.
Qiu Zhen didn't understand what Tang Yin meant by "this world" and "that world", but he understood the meaning of his refusal. "Tang big brother, I..."
"No need to say more, I said no means no." After finishing speaking, Tang Yin nodded towards Qiu Zhen and walked straight towards the camp of Wu Mei.
Wu Mei was extremely surprised that Tang Yin could take the initiative to find her.
Tang Yin said straightforwardly, "I'm going to attack the enemy's checkpoint directly, but it's probably hard to get close, so I want to get some Ningbing soldiers' clothes first and disguise myself as a Ningbing soldier to sneak into the checkpoint."
She nodded her head in approval, smiled and said: "So you've already thought of this idea, then I don't need to say more. As for Ning Bing's clothes and armor, I have some here, but not many, only over thirty sets. However, I have a way..."
Tang Yin directly interrupted her words and said: "That's enough."
"Huh?" Mei looked at him dazedly.
"More than thirty suits are enough." Tang Yin explained.
"Oh? I remember you having over a hundred men under your command?"
"That's right! I'll only bring those who are willing to go, and won't force them. Thirty or more sets will probably be useless!" Tang Yin said.
The charming woman couldn't help but frown and asked in disbelief: "You're going to take more than thirty people with you?"
Tang Yan retorted: "Compared with thousands of enemies, what difference does it make whether there are dozens or hundreds of people? In the end, they're all just cannon fodder."
She bowed her head, if she could, she would not want to watch Tang Yan go to his death with her own eyes, but the situation forced her, someone had to make a sacrifice, it was either Tang Yan or someone else, rather than sacrificing those old subordinates who were emotionally close to her and knew each other well, it was more practical to sacrifice Tang Yan.
Even if she was interested in Tang Yin again, at this juncture, she would not have any personal motives.
She took a deep breath and smiled with a captivating charm, saying softly: "I hope you can come back alive, we'll meet again at Tongmen."
Tang Yin didn't hold such extravagant hopes, he smiled calmly and said: "I also hope that General Wu can lead everyone to break through the level alive, don't waste my efforts!"
She gazed deeply into Tang Yin's eyes, speechless for a long time. Under his sincere gaze, she didn't know what to say either.
Tang Yin led the Ningbing army's uniforms and armor back from Wu Mei, then gathered over a hundred people under his command. His gaze swept slowly over the crowd before he spoke: "Ningbing set up a checkpoint on the way to Tongmen, we must pass through it to return to Tongmen, but there are many enemy soldiers inside, at least 8,000. If we force our way through, with just a few hundred people, I'm afraid no one will make it. So, General Wu came up with an idea: have some people launch a frontal attack to attract the enemy's attention, while others find a gap and break through the checkpoint. Fortunately, this task fell on us." He paused, observing the crowd's expressions, which were mostly shocked and pale. Tang Yin understood their feelings, no one was not afraid of death, and their mission was almost certainly doomed. He shrugged and smiled: "Since the task has fallen to us, we can't avoid it. However, I don't want to make things difficult for all of you brothers. If anyone is willing to follow me, I welcome them. Those who are unwilling, I won't force you, just stay behind and escape with General Wu."
For many people, Tang Yin's news was too shocking, and for a while, they couldn't react, looking at each other in dismay, no one spoke up.
Just as everyone was silent, Zhang Biao stood up and said loudly: "If it weren't for Brother Tang, I would have died at the hands of Ning Ren long ago. My life is given by Brother Tang, where Brother Tang goes, I will go!"
His words made many people who were originally timid and afraid to lower their heads in shame. They were all deserters, being pursued by the Ning army and facing a desperate situation. If it weren't for Tang Yin, they might not have survived until now.
As soon as Zhang Bao's voice fell, Zhong Zhen, Yu Hua and Li Yu also stood up one after another, saying in unison: "I am willing to go with Brother Tang, to Knife Mountain, to Living Sea, without hesitation!"
Four captains, fearless of life and death, were willing to go. The morale of the soldiers below was also stirred up, each one's blood boiling, speaking in unison: "I'm willing to go!" "I'll go too!" "Brother Tang, take us all with you!" At this time, even if someone was afraid in their heart and didn't want to go forward, they didn't dare say it out loud, and could only follow the majority.
Looking around at the young and passionate faces, Tang Yin couldn't help but secretly sigh in admiration. Despite knowing they were going to their deaths, not a single person backed out - Feng Ren's temperament was indeed straightforward and fierce!
At this time, Tang Yin's heart felt a sense of attachment for the first time, an attachment to Feng Guo and its people, which he himself may not have realized. His heart had begun to be gradually 'Feng-ized'.
Even if I couldn't go back to my original world, even if I had to live here forever, it seemed like it wouldn't be so bad... Tang Yin was startled by the sudden thought that popped into his mind, he shook his head and forced himself to cast aside his distractions. He looked around at everyone with a sly smile and asked in a low voice: "Those who follow me will die, aren't you guys afraid?"
"With Brother Tang around, we're not afraid of anything!" everyone chimed in unison.
"I don't understand why they are so confident in themselves," Tang Yin said with some helplessness. "I'll say it again, those who want to stay, hurry up and stand out, there's still a chance now."
"Brother Tang, don't say anymore, we're willing to go with you!"
"Yes, Brother Tang, take us all with you!"
Listening to everyone's words, Tang Yin was moved and indignant at the same time. He didn't even know what he was angry about himself. He suppressed his smile and said in a cold voice: "Suit yourselves, but let's get one thing straight - when it comes to fighting, don't expect me to come and save you. If you want to survive, it's up to your own abilities." After finishing speaking, he stood up straight and gave the order decisively: "Zhang Bao, have your entire team change into Ning soldiers' uniforms. The other three teams will disguise themselves as prisoners of war."
Thirty people escorted more than seventy captives, which is still normal. In order to sneak past the enemy's checkpoint, this is the only way.
Zhang Bao, Zhong Zhen, Yu Hua and Li Yu, the four team leaders, all had a serious expression on their faces and responded in unison: "Yes! Brother Tang!"
When Tang Yin had finished handing over everything he needed to hand over, Wu Yi arrived. Seeing Tang Yin, he said in a low voice: "The general has given the order, Brother Tang can set off now!"
"Good!" Tang Yin responded casually and waved his hand at his subordinates, saying: "Let's go!"
He saw him say go and he went without hesitation, Wu Yi stretched out his hand and called: "Tang brothers."
Tang Yin stopped in his tracks and turned around, looking at him with a puzzled expression, asking: "Is there something else?"
Wu Yi's old face turned red, and he was stunned for a while before saying in a low voice: "Be careful on your way, Brother Tang."
Tang Yin smiled and didn't say much, just nodded lightly.
