Pure and Kind Zhang Xinjie: "I think it's impossible to be the leader. The chances are very small, infinitely close to zero." Who asked the streamer and her father to have such a tacit understanding that both father and daughter had brought a small number of soldiers? A mere 30,000 troops could only ensure that they had a certain amount of authority in the Alliance Army and would not be reduced to a mere background. It was difficult to control the entire situation! As for the Xu brothers, Xu Bei and Xu Fei, they were like the Yuan brothers from the Three Kingdoms period. They were the true leaders of the alliance army. If they were really talented and not the kind of mediocre people who switched from arrogance to deference and had eyes but failed to see, the possibility of the host father and son being promoted was very small. It was more realistic to daydream about becoming an alliance leader.
After all, this was a place where fists did the talking. The Xu brothers were very young and inexperienced, but they held great weight in the alliance.
As a fan of streamers, many viewers felt that there was a psychological gap, but reality was reality, and streamers could not go against the heavens and the earth.
Honest and Loyal Ye Buxiu: "# smokes, can anyone be the Alliance Leader? Have you forgotten how big Dongqing's territory is? The host and his son have already occupied two states and Hu County, which is similar to a municipality today. They are in the limelight and are feared by others. If they were to fight for the useless chief position, the disadvantages would outweigh the advantages. They might even get themselves killed. What if the Alliance Army has ulterior motives and secretly forms a small alliance to attack the host father and son? Right now, they only had thirty thousand soldiers and horses in their hands. They were very weak.
Hand Speed Expert Yu Wenzhou: "The host's goal isn't to become the leader of the alliance. She's here to recruit talents and promote her business." What's wrong with the alliance leader? It was just an empty title. If it was "Emperor", it would be worth it for the host to fight for it. There were gains and losses. It was not the best to gain the upper hand and be in the limelight. Little did they know that making a fortune in silence was the way of the king. I prefer to watch a wolf in sheep's clothing.
At first, Liu She was worried that his daughter would be unhappy, but after talking to her, he realized that she really didn't care about her reputation.
"The one who has the last laugh is the winner." Jiang Pengji snorted and said calmly, "The process is important, but it's not as important as the result."
Liu She was very pleased. "It's great that you think that way. I'm relieved."
Feng Zhen and Yang Si's working abilities were commendable. Under their direction, the camp quickly took shape.
The first thing to be done was the commander's tent.
As soon as she stepped into her new "residence", someone came to visit her. It was an old acquaintance.
Jiang Pengji looked at Huang Song and asked him in a familiar tone.
"Bogaard's camp is nearby?"
The young man in front of him was a little longer than he remembered. He looked more muscular, and the immaturity on his face had been slowly worn away by time.
The visitor was Huang Song, Jiang Pengji's fair-weather friend. They had a good relationship back in Shangjing.
"Yeah, I heard that you're here, so I hurriedly asked people to prepare cooked meat and sake. Let's not go home until we're drunk."
Jiang Pengji glanced at the young scholar behind Huang Song. She saw that he was secretly frowning, and his expression was slightly displeased.
That's right, it's really a headache to have a lord who won't leave until she's drunk and can't hold her liquor well.
Jiang Pengji bluntly exposed Huang Song's lame lie. "Come on, do you think I don't know what you're planning? You knew I was coming, but you just dragged your feet and refused to come. I'm here now because I can't delay any longer … am I right? "
Huang Song's face was bitter, but he did not show any embarrassment at being exposed.
"Liu Lanting, your mouth is still so harsh, and your words are like knives."
Jiang Pengji crossed her arms in front of her chest. "If you don't want me to be harsh, then don't talk like an official in front of me. Tell me the truth."
"Alright, the truth is … I felt that your tent hasn't been set up yet, so I didn't want to sit on the ground and eat meat and drink with you. That's why I delayed coming." Huang Song's answer made Cheng Jing's frown deepen, and deep wrinkles appeared on his face.
"I've told you the truth. You should let me into your tent, right?"
"You're so talkative. Come in."
Jiang Pengji glanced at Cheng Jing to see his reaction, then welcomed them into the tent.
The tent was very simple. There were only mats for people to sit on, and other than that, there were no other decorations.
The three of them sat down. Huang Song asked the guards to set up the table and took out the food from the food box.
The cooked meat on the plate had been cut into slices. The slices were still steaming, and they did not smell fishy.
Jiang Pengji still spoke in a mocking tone.
"The alliance troops are stationed at a place with 400,000 people, but we can still eat meat."
Huang Song did not understand. He thought that Jiang Pengji was disgusted, and he felt rather ashamed.
"I should do my best as a host and entertain Brother Liu. It's a pity that the snow hasn't melted yet, and the livestock are hiding in their nests. There are no other living creatures for me to eat. When spring comes, the prey will be plump, and I'll hunt a few more for Brother Liu … "
Cheng Jing felt the urge to facepalm.
It was definitely his illusion that his lord was so silly and adorable.
Jiang Pengji could not help but laugh. She knew that Huang Song was trying to be clever, but she did not expose him. "That's not what I meant. Bogao, don't misunderstand. The alliance troops have 400,000 troops. How much food can they eat every day? I thought that if the army stationed here, they would at least be at the level where all the birds would disappear, even if they didn't eat the ground and the roots. Thanks to you, I can still eat meat. "
Huang Song was speechless.
"Brother Liu's words are reasonable, but the meat you're eating now was secretly reared by me. I'm preparing it for a sumptuous meal when I'm hungry. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have wanted to eat it so early. Look at how good I am to you. I even gave you my secret stash. "
Jiang Pengji and Huang Song were fair-weather friends. They were not close friends, but they were not strangers either.
They had no scruples when they talked at the table.
As for Cheng Jing?
He ate silently, drank silently, and watched the two old drivers drift and race in silence.
It felt like the door to a new world had been opened.
After eating and drinking to his heart's content, Huang Song picked his teeth as if there was no one else around and asked Jiang Pengji.
"Brother Liu, I heard that you only brought 10,000 troops with you? Isn't that not enough? "
Jiang Pengji said indifferently, "Is 10,000 troops too little? If it's not enough, doesn't my father have 20,000? "
Huang Song hurriedly waved his hands. There was a hint of probing in his words. "I didn't mean that. I'm just thinking about Brother Liu's temperament. He's always liked to join in the fun and be in the limelight. Now, many of Dongqing's heroes and forces have gathered here to prepare for the rescue of the king, kill the rebels, and protect the country … This is a good opportunity to make a name for yourself. Brother Liu, don't you want to play big and be in the limelight? "
The two were fair-weather friends, but their temperaments were compatible and they were quite familiar with each other.
When she asked this question, it was 70% probing mixed with 30% concern.
