Flower Stealing Master
Chapter 1978: Changes in Yangzhou
The two rode all the way north, and on the way Song Qingshu suddenly asked: "Since the Red Coat Army and the Yang family have such a connection, why did the court sit idly by? As far as I know, the Huaidong system envoy Liu Wei led 30,000 soldiers and was stationed in Chu. What about Zhou, Xia Quan is so unscrupulous?"
A hint of anger flashed in the eyes of the woman in the yellow shirt: "It's okay if you don't mention the surname Liu, I'm angry when I mention it."
"What's the matter?" Song Qingshu vaguely remembered that Yang An'er seemed to be very dissatisfied with Liu Yan.
"Speaking of everything, it has something to do with the dispute between Han and Dongyu-Jia Sidao..." The woman in the yellow shirt sighed and explained the various reasons.
It turned out that Han Cheng was focused on the Northern Expedition, so he valued them, the Central Plains Volunteers, and sent his confidant Xu Xiji as the Huaidong system envoy, Huairou wooed these rebels, and even provided money, food, and weapons; but later Han Yan fell, and Xu Xiji naturally couldn't do it anymore. The successor was Liu Yan of the Jia Pai. He changed his previous policy of being gentle, but instead planned to completely wipe out this rebel army.
"Don't you care about the emperor?" Song Qingshu wondered.
The woman in the yellow shirt sneered: "You don't know that our emperor is a surrender. He is also worried that the existence of the Red Coat Army will anger the people of the Kingdom of Jin and be exhausted to him. In addition, there are no lack of scum in the Red Coat Army, some While accepting the court’s money, food and materials, the generals secretly sold them to the enemy, and were copied by those ministers. They became the last straw to crush the camel, and the emperor was moved to kill."
Song Qingshu vaguely remembered that the red-coated army in history was indeed an uprising at the beginning, but later some of the leaderships deteriorated and began to support themselves by supporting themselves, sharing their origins between the Jin, Song, and Mongolia, focusing on expanding their own power and did not listen. Song's command.
Of course, the reason for this result is that in addition to the greed of human nature, various discriminatory policies in the Southern Song Dynasty, such as calling these rebels the Northern Army, not allowing the Northern Army to enter the Southern Song lands, deducting money and food, and the Northern Army and the Southern Army have a dispute. The commander must be biased towards the southern army. In addition, the Song Dynasty has always guarded against military generals. Those methods were naturally used on these rebels, secretly suppressing them, causing the rebels to chill.
The woman in the yellow shirt spoke again: "According to intelligence analysis, this time Xia Quan annexed the Red Coat Army, and most of it was this Liu Yan who was behind her back!"
Song Qingshu was somewhat applauded: "This Liu Yan is clever, making the two tigers fight, and then reap the profits, but now that we are involved, naturally we can't let him do what he wants."
"Hmm!" The woman in the yellow shirt squeezed her fist secretly, thinking that she must rescue the Yang family this time.
The two rushed for a few hours, and finally stopped in a small city. The woman in the yellow shirt said: "You wait for me in the teahouse in front. I'll come as soon as I go."
"Where are you going?" Song Qingshu wondered. There is no mobile phone in this world. What should I do if the two sides get separated by accident? He is short of time this time, so he can't waste time.
The woman in the yellow shirt turned reddish: "I will be back soon."
Song Qingshu asked, "Easy to go?"
"No!" The woman in the yellow shirt snorted.
"Oh, then I'll be with you, lest you get away in trouble after a while." Song Qingshu followed.
"I'm going to buy clothes!" The woman in the yellow shirt finally couldn't help but give him a white look.
"Oh, let's go together." Song Qingshu said with a smile. Seeing her hesitating before, I thought it was something. As for his own change of clothes, he can just ask the shop assistant to help buy it at that time. You don't need to be like a woman. So you have to choose by yourself.
"How can this be together!" The woman in the yellow shirt was extremely embarrassed.
"Why can't you be together? What's more, I said to help you pay the bill." It should be normal to accompany a woman to buy clothes in a previous life, let alone go shopping with such a beautiful woman.
After all, the woman in the yellow shirt still couldn't hold him back. After arriving at the clothes shop, she couldn't help but complain: "If you didn't know that you have always been unruly, you would definitely be regarded as a prodigal son."
"I won't go in and wait for you at the door. This is what kind of apprenticeship." Song Qingshu naturally knows that men's and women's defenses are obvious in this era. Shops selling women's goods will not sell men's goods, and men will never set foot in this way. The place. In addition, clothing stores are different from later generations. Most of the time, they only sell cloth or silk, and customers buy back and make tailored clothes. Of course, there are ready-made clothes to buy, but relatively few.
The girl in the yellow shirt didn't bother to care about him, so she picked it up in the store. Nowadays, she definitely has no time to buy cloth to make clothes. Naturally, she can only buy ready-made clothes. The boss saw a fairy-like girl with outstanding temperament, knowing that it must be a major customer, and hurriedly greeted her with enthusiasm.
Song Qingshu leaned at the door waiting to be bored, and then asked: "By the way, I finally know the meaning of the next line of the poem you said to me last time."
The woman in the yellow shirt who was choosing clothes gave her a finger, and a blush flashed across her cheek: "What poem?"
"The spring grass will be green next year, and the next sentence is that Wang and Sun will not return," Song Qingshu's face looked like a smile, "I didn't expect you to expect me to come back soon."
There was silence in the room, and it was a long time before I heard the woman in the yellow shirt say: "I don't remember any poems I told you."
"Why? I was seeing goodbye in the palace at that time, you..."
Song Qingshu has to say that the woman in the yellow shirt has quickly walked out with a package: "If I said nothing, then there will be no!" After speaking, she ran away without looking back.
I was about to chase, but I was caught by the shop owner: "Hey, hey, I haven't given the money yet..."
Song Qingshu was speechless for a while, and had to throw him a piece of silver: "No need to look for it." After speaking, he hurried to catch up.
The shop owner took a small scale and weighed the silver. After repeated confirmation, he couldn't help but curl his lips: "No more, no less, just fine. I don't need to look for it. I'm pooh, what a big money, I deserve to be that god. The girl is going to run."
Song Qingshu naturally didn't know the boss' complaints behind him. Now he is sitting in a restaurant, admiring the blushing face of the girl in the yellow shirt up close: "Your skin is too pale on weekdays, and there is no **** color. You still look at it like this. healthier."
"You need to take care of it." The woman in the yellow shirt held up the tea cup to conceal the panic in her heart. She secretly regretted that it was a shame why the ghost had to leave him a poem at the beginning.
Song Qingshu held her chin and looked at her side face quietly. Her face was as pure as the first snow, and the soft lines were like a stroke. On weekdays, she was mostly indifferent and it was rare to see her. Showing a shy attitude is really pleasing to the eye.
"Have you seen enough?" Feeling his gaze, the woman in the yellow shirt felt as if it were real, and she was immediately uncomfortable.
"Of course I didn't see enough," Song Qingshu said confidently, "The ancients are beautiful and delicious. I finally understand what kind of experience it is."
"You..." The woman in the yellow shirt sighed suddenly, "No wonder there are so many confidantes around you, and there are indeed few girls in the world that can stop you from such a stalker."
Song Qingshu was startled, and said with a wry smile: "Heaven and earth conscience, I was only thinking of you just now."
"What about now?" The woman in the yellow shirt looked at him with water-clear eyes.
"Uh..." Song Qingshu fell into silence immediately, and was aroused by what she had just said. At this time, many people appeared in his mind. For example, when Beishang would pass by Yangzhou, he hesitated whether to visit Zhou Zhiruo first. After all, the two were separated. The time is not short.
The girl in the yellow shirt also gradually calmed down: "The poem I said to you last time was just out of friendship, so don't think too much about it."
Song Qingshu knew that she said that she was slashing love with Huijian and deliberately alienating the relationship between the two parties. In fact, at this time, as long as she uses some tricks and brushes her favorability, it is not impossible to get her love, but now she is in love and debt. Many confidantes never see one or two sides all year round. Are they really going to harm new girls?
"Understand." Song Qingshu put away his laughter and drank the water and wine in the glass.
Seeing his sudden loneliness, the woman in the yellow shirt bit her lip lightly, and for a while she couldn't bear it: Am I too unfeeling?
At this moment, there was a loud noise not far away. A group of businessmen dressed up came in and drank and chatted: "Have you heard of it, Yangzhou is about to fight."
"Yangzhou?" Song Qingshu suddenly turned back, what's going on, why he didn't get any news.
The woman in the yellow shirt was also taken aback, and followed her reputation.
"Aren't King Qi's territory in Yangzhou? Who dares to break ground on Tai Sui?"
"I heard that it was Xia Quan of the Red Coat Army. This Xia Quan is incredible. Since Yang An'er was killed, he has sprung up and annexed most of Yang An'er's forces. Now he has become the strongest branch of the Red Coat Army."
"Didn't the Golden Snake Camp and the Red Coat Army have always had a good relationship? Why did they suddenly start fighting?"
"I don't know, but it's not normal for them who are born in the green forest to compete for territory. Yangzhou is a well-known and rich place in the world. Who wouldn't be jealous."
"I don't know if Da Song can take advantage of the situation and return to the north to regain Yangzhou."
"Come on, what kind of urine is the court, don't you know what's going on these years."
"Shhh, speak carefully."
...
Hearing those people's comments, the woman in the yellow shirt glanced at Song Qingshu worriedly: "Brother Song, or ask them about specific things."
Song Qingshu shook his head: "No, they are just passing merchants. They know very little, and they can't ask anything specific."
"Then we now?" the yellow shirt woman asked.
"Go." Song Qingshu got up and walked out.
The woman in the yellow shirt hurriedly followed: "Where to go?"
"The biggest brothel in the city."
"?..."
The girl in the yellow shirt stayed outside the brothel, and after dispersing, I don't know how many young boys who came to her to strike up a conversation. The other party thought she was a girl in the building, and they all ran up and said that no matter how high the price was, they would redeem her.
"This bastard, I knew I went in with him." The woman in the yellow shirt had a terrible expression. Song Qingshu just walked in. After hesitating for a long time, she decided to wait for him outside. As a lady, how could she go like this? Where is it?
But she soon regretted it. Standing in front of the brothel like this was even more eye-catching, and once again expelled a disciple, she had to run to the opposite side to find a shadow and wait, and her heart was also very angry: "This bastard, what is this time? Came to such a place?"
She is not a fool, and she does not think that after Song Qingshu heard the news of Yangzhou being attacked, he still had the mind to come to this place to find flowers and ask Liu. Of course, even if he didn't hear the news of Yangzhou being attacked, with so many confidantes around him, it should not be enough. To come to this kind of place, let alone this girl accompany him all the way, she doesn't think anyone in this brothel is more attractive than her.
"Bah, baah, what are you thinking about in a mess." The woman in the yellow shirt stomped angrily and continued to look towards the gate of the brothel until she finally saw Song Qingshu coming out.
"How about it, is there any news?" The woman in yellow shirt greeted her and asked with some concern. Although she didn't know that Song Qingshu deliberately established an intelligence network composed of brothels in the Southern Song Dynasty, she could probably do it with her cleverness. Guessed that he went in to inquire about news, this kind of place is the place where information flows the fastest.
Song Qingshu nodded and explained: "Xia Quan has annexed the Red Coat Army of Yang You's line, and his power has soared. This morning, he suddenly started to attack Yangzhou."
"Is there anything to do in Yangzhou?" The woman in yellow shirt asked eagerly. Suddenly she was shocked. Why is she so nervous? Yangzhou has nothing to do with herself. Is she nervous for him? Thinking of this, a heart beats wildly a few times.
"Yangzhou is a big city, so how can it be so easy to fall," Song Qing wrote with a worried expression, "It's just that I am more worried about Liu Yan's 30,000 troops in Chuzhou than Xia Quan."
The woman in the yellow shirt said in a puzzled way: "Liu Wei is nothing more than dealing with the Red Coat Army, but you are the king of Qi granted by the court after all. Does he dare to attack your turf openly at the expense of the world? Isn't that a light start to war? , How can he bear this responsibility."
"Naturally he didn't dare to attack Yangzhou openly, but..." Song Qingshu snorted coldly. "He can help Xia Quan secretly. I got news that he not only quietly provided Xia Quan money and soldiers, but also allowed the army to be stationed in Yangzhou city intentionally or unintentionally. Nearby, it was to help Yangzhou in name, but it actually hindered the deployment of troops from Yangzhou, and because his army was watching from the sidelines, Yangzhou had to split a portion of its forces to guard against him, leading to confrontation. Xia Quan is more stressed."
Prior to regaining Li Kexiu’s territory and power, he obtained about 38,000 elite soldiers. Later, Zhou Zhiruo slowly expanded his enrollment, probably with a number of 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers. Because of Song Qingshu’s policy of not having too many soldiers, the army in Yangzhou also This number is maintained, and a large part of it will be scattered to defend the other state capitals. The field troops that Zhou Zhiruo can now mobilize in Yangzhou City are at most about 20,000 or 30,000.
According to intelligence, Xia Quan has about 40,000 to 50,000, and Liu Yan has 30,000. Although they may not be as elite as Yangzhou’s army, the number advantage is quite obvious.
"But who gave him the courage?" The woman in yellow shirt was very puzzled, "Even if Liu Yan helped Xiaquan take down Yangzhou, what good would it do for him? Still facing the imperial court's question and Jin Snake's revenge?"
"Of course it's our Pingzhang Army State Affairs Master Jia." Song Qingshu was puzzled before, how could the city like Jia think about relying on a few women to tie himself up? Now that I think it's just his method of paralyzing himself, the main event is still on Yangzhou's side. In this way, it is logical to draw oneself here, and naturally there is no time to take care of Wudang. ——
I always feel that a chapter with 2000 words is too few. In the future, the daily updates will be collected in one chapter. As for the number of words, I really can’t tell.
