On the Flag Grinding Mountain, in the tent of the commander of the Red Coat Army, a tall and slender lady was pacing back and forth. Even though she was dressed in military attire, her two straight long legs attracted the gazes of most of the men in the tent.
"Li Quan, that brat, got lucky." The group of people swallowed their saliva and secretly cursed. However, they did not dare to say what they were thinking. It must be known that even though their female leader was as beautiful as a peach, her way of doing things was very fierce. If she was not fierce, she would not be able to control these generals. If she knew what they were thinking, she would definitely give them a good beating.
"Ying Luo, what plan do you have? Dragging things on like this is not a solution." Yang Miaozhen looked at the yellow-clothed lady and said.
"Sister, just wait patiently. You will know in a while." The yellow-clothed lady was naturally the yellow-robed lady. She was rushing towards Flag Grinding Mountain. Because Yang Miaozhen was leading the troops, her speed could not match up to her. Thus, even though the other party had left first, she was still able to catch up.
After finding Yang Miaozhen, she naturally followed Song Qingshu's instructions and delayed the marriage between her and Li Quan. Both of them were from the Yang family and knew each other before, so it was easier to communicate.
"Previously, you also said to wait for a while, but how long do we have to wait?" Yang Miaozhen was somewhat impatient. The other generals in the tent all shrunk their necks. This tigress — even though she was beautiful, she was still a tigress. She had just lost a brother and the Red Coat Army had suffered heavy losses. During this period of time, it was as if she had eaten gunpowder. No one dared to provoke her at this time.
The yellow-robed lady was in a difficult position. She did not know what Song Qingshu wanted to do, nor did she know when he would return. He only told her to wait.
But facing Yang Miaozhen's questioning, she needed an explanation. Helplessly, she could only say, "Waiting for someone."
"Waiting for who?" Yang Miaozhen asked.
The yellow-robed woman looked at the other people in the tent with an awkward expression. Yang Miaozhen waved her hand and said, "It doesn't matter. We're all on the same side." After going through so many hardships, those who were still willing to follow her were naturally trustworthy people.
The yellow-robed lady then said, "Song Qingshu!"
"Golden Snake King!"
Hearing this name, the tent was filled with gasps of surprise as everyone discussed.
Yang Miaozhen frowned, "Golden Snake camp is also involved?"
The yellow-robed woman hurriedly explained, "No, I privately asked him for help. Although he is a somewhat frivolous person, when he heard that you and your sister are descendants of the Yang Family's generals, he volunteered to help."
Delight appeared on the faces of the generals in the tent.
"With the help of the Golden Snake King, things will be much easier."
"That's right. With the Golden Snake King taking action, our problem is no longer a problem."
…
Yang Miaozhen, on the other hand, was much calmer than her subordinates. "How can he help us now? We want to reform the Red Coat Army and take revenge for the First Master. Would he sacrifice the soldiers of the Golden Snake Camp for someone unrelated to him? Even if he is willing, what will the people under Golden Snake Camp think? "
"What do you mean by irrelevant person? Isn't the Fourth Lady one of us if she marries him?"
"Yeah, compared to the Golden Snake King, Li Quan is nothing!"
"I've been annoyed with that brat for a long time. He even dared to take the opportunity to threaten me."
"She might as well marry the Golden Snake King than marry Li Quan."
…
The yellow-robed woman was dumbfounded by the scene. What was going on? Could it be that Song Qingshu was going to replace Li Quan and marry Yang Miaozhen? Thinking of this, she suddenly felt a little strange. Wasn't she rushing to send him into someone else's arms?
Yang Miaozhen's face alternated between green and red. Finally, she couldn't help but roar, "All of you, shut up!"
"We're telling the truth. Since we're going to form an alliance, why don't we form an alliance with the stronger Golden Snake King instead of Li Quan?" The one who said this was Yang Aner's confidant, Li Siwen. Everyone privately gave him the nickname of "Grand Preceptor".
"That's right, Miaozhen. I also think that you should consider it. The Golden Snake King is better than Li Quan in every aspect. Moreover, Li Quan's adding insult to injury has made many of our brothers unhappy." Liu Quan, the uncle of the Yang siblings, said.
Both of them were highly respected people in the army, so Yang Miaozhen didn't dare to act rashly. She hastily explained, "I also know that Golden Snake King is better than Li Quan in all aspects, but he is too good. His Golden Snake Camp is too powerful now. What qualifications do we, a few thousand defeated soldiers, have to form an alliance with him? To put it bluntly, if I were to form an alliance with him by marriage, the Red Coat Army would become my dowry. "
Yang Miaozhen paused for a moment before continuing, "Although Li Quan is a bit despicable, he still has the Red Coat Army under him. Moreover, although his troops are stronger than ours, there is a limit to their strength. He is the one who is truly an equal alliance. In the future, I am confident that I can rely on my own abilities to become the true ruler of the Red Coat Army.
"If we form an alliance with Li Quan, even though the number of troops is still less than Xia Quan's, it will be enough for us to avenge our First Master. War is never won by numbers alone!"
No one doubted Yang Miaozhen's words. Previously, the Red Coat Army had suffered a crushing defeat mainly because they had fought against the Jin army. Then, their First Master was suddenly killed, causing the entire Red Coat Army to fall into a state of disunity without a leader. That was why they were defeated by Xia Quan one by one. Now, as long as they could unite Li Quan's forces, it wouldn't be difficult for the Fourth Lady to defeat Xia Quan with her abilities.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Yang Miaozhen added in her heart, "That man with the surname Song is a womanizer everywhere. I don't know how many women he has at home. I don't want to be jealous of his harem all day long."
"Fourth Lady, I can roughly understand what you're thinking. You mainly don't want the Red Coat Army to be swallowed up by the Golden Snake Camp. However, have you ever thought of a problem? Even if everything goes according to your wishes and you control Li Quan's forces and take revenge on Xia Quan, the Jin Kingdom is growing stronger by the day. The Southern Song Dynasty is unreliable and the Golden Snake Camp is rising in the east. The space for us to survive is getting smaller and smaller. Sooner or later, we'll have to rely on one side. Otherwise, we won't be able to escape destruction in the end," Li Siwen suddenly said.
Yang Miaozhen was stunned. She was not stupid and naturally knew that what he said made sense. The Central Plains today was no longer in the chaotic times when the Jin Kingdom had just destroyed the Northern Song Dynasty. The Red Coat Army's survival was getting more and more difficult.
Li Siwen continued, "During the Three Kingdoms period, Deng Ai Zhong's army was pressuring the border. Liu Chan of the Shu Han had the opportunity to escape to the east and even seek refuge with Dong Yue Wu. However, why did he seek refuge with Cao Wei in the end? It was because they clearly saw that Wei was the strongest and Dong Yue Wu would definitely be destroyed in the future. Instead of surrendering a second time, it was better to surrender once and have more bargaining power. "
Yang Miaozhen's expression was somewhat ugly. Although he was using the Three Kingdoms period as an example, he was also warning her that rather than being swallowed up by the Golden Snake Camp in the future, it was better to take the initiative to form an alliance now. After all, in the future, she wouldn't have such a good bargaining chip as she did now.
At this moment, her nephew Yang You also spoke, "That's right, aunt. As the saying goes, a woman cannot serve two husbands. Since she's going to marry, why not marry a stronger man?" His forces had been swallowed up by Xia Quan. Fortunately, Yang Miaozhen saved his life.
"Shut up!" Yang Miaozhen flew into a rage out of humiliation. If it wasn't for this little bastard's wild thoughts that caused the Red Coat Army to split, how could Xia Quan have taken advantage of the situation? However, he was after all her eldest brother's only son and also the blood of the Yang family. Although she was angry, she couldn't do anything to him.
Yang You was somewhat afraid of this aunt of his. After being glared at by her, he immediately shut up.
Yang Miaozhen then continued, "Even if you're going to surrender in the end, you should surrender to the Imperial Court. How can you surrender to a local force? There's no need to discuss this further. Otherwise, you'll be punished by military law."
At this moment, a faint sigh suddenly came from outside the tent, "If the Imperial Court was really willing to accept you, your eldest brother wouldn't have been killed, and the Red Coat Army wouldn't have fallen to such a state."
"Who is it?!" Yang Miaozhen was immediately alarmed. In an instant, she grabbed the long spear beside her and thrust it towards the entrance of the tent. Just now, everyone was discussing the most confidential of secrets. How could she allow an outsider to listen in?
Everyone could only see a brilliant spear light exploding in front of them. The yellow-robed girl was secretly amazed. No wonder there was a rumor that the Pear Blossom Spear was invincible. This spear technique was truly exquisite.
However, in the next moment, everyone's vision darkened. The spear light that was like a sky full of pear blossoms had already disappeared. Everyone looked over and discovered that the spearhead of Yang Miaozhen's spear had been caught in the hands of a man. They couldn't help but be shocked. In their hearts, Yang Miaozhen was the representative of invincibility. Such an indomitable spear had actually been caught so easily by a man's fingers?
"You used your spear to stab me the moment you met me. Is this how the Fourth Lady treats an old friend?" The newcomer smiled.
"It's you?" After recognizing the other party's identity, Yang Miaozhen also gave up on spinning her spear to use the spiraling hidden energy.
"Big Brother Song." The yellow-robed girl also clearly saw the appearance of the newcomer. She secretly let out a long sigh of relief. He had finally arrived.
"Golden Snake King!" There were many veterans of the Red Coat Army present. They had all seen Song Qingshu before. They all stood up and saluted him. Even if they hadn't seen him before, they had at least heard of his reputation. As the saying goes, a person's reputation was like a tree's shadow. The other party's status was far higher than theirs.
Seeing that her subordinates were all so enthusiastic and respectful, Yang Miaozhen couldn't help but feel angry. She thought to herself, I'm not dead yet, why are all of you so eager to get close to me?
Of course, she also knew that her anger was unreasonable. It was probably because these people had been trying to persuade her to marry Song Qingshu. In the end, she was about to see him in person. She didn't know how much he had heard. She was so embarrassed that she couldn't help but feel angry.
"Greetings, everyone." Song Qingshu greeted everyone one by one.
Seeing that he was trying to get close to her subordinates, Yang Miaozhen felt like she was being poached in front of her. She became even angrier. "The world famous Golden Snake King, eavesdropping as soon as you arrived. I'm afraid that's not very good."
Everyone in the room was startled. They immediately felt the tense atmosphere.
Song Qingshu didn't answer. He went to the main seat and picked up a cup of tea. He took a few sips and said, "I've been rushing all the way here. I'm really tired. I'm going to drink some tea to catch my breath."
"Ah …" Yang Miaozhen was about to say that she had drunk from the teacup. Who knew that before she could say anything, the other party would drink from it. She had no choice but to shut her mouth. Thinking that the other party had come to help her, she couldn't blame him. But even so, her cheeks were inexplicably hot.
The group of men in the tent looked at each other and kept exchanging their thoughts.
"Did I see it wrong? This tigress is actually blushing?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. This woman has always been a neat freak. No one dares to touch her things, let alone drink from the cup she has drunk from. But now she's not angry at all. It's strange."
"Just now, when we suggested her to marry Song Qingshu, she even scolded us. But now … tsk, tsk, tsk. Women are animals that say one thing but mean another."
"Is the Fourth Lady also a woman?"
"Apart from being fierce, how is she not a woman? Is your wife as beautiful as her? Are your wife's legs as long as hers? "
"F * ck, that's hurtful!"
…
Yang Miaozhen noticed the strange looks in their eyes and couldn't help but say angrily, "What are you guys looking at?"
"No … nothing." The group of men hurriedly made up a joke.
Song Qingshu poured a few cups of water and drank it before he recovered.
"Where were we just now? Oh, I said you guys can't go back to the Southern Song Dynasty. "
Yang Miaozhen snorted. "Why?" She had a relationship with the Yang Mansion of Tianbo, so it was not difficult for her to go south if she had no other choice. But this meant that the efforts of two generations of the Yang family in the Central Plains would all be in vain. If she went back with her tail between her legs, it would be a disgrace to the Yang family's ancestors.
"Didn't she tell you?" Song Qingshu glanced at the yellow-robed woman and continued, "This time, do you believe that the First Master was killed by a random boat man?"
"How could a boat man be capable of this?" Yang Miaozhen gritted her teeth. "Although there is no direct evidence, we all know that this is Xia Quan's conspiracy."
"Xia Quan and his people have always minded their own business. Why did they suddenly attack you this time? Isn't it because of the instruction of Liu Gu, the Huaidong Commissioner? "Song Qingshu said.
"Do you have any evidence?" Yang Miaozhen didn't believe him easily. After all, she had the blood of the Yang family in her. She couldn't believe that the imperial court would do this to them.
Song QingShu told them about the fight between Jia Shidao and Han Xingzhou, and then he continued, "Xu Xiji was the former Huaidong Control Commissioner, and he had always been nice to you. What's the attitude of Liu Gu, who took over the position, towards you? I don't believe that you can't feel it. "
Yang Miaozhen was silent. "All of this is just your guess."
"Really?" Song Qingshu chuckled. "If it weren't for Liu Gu, why would your First Master ask for help from Xia Quan? I met him on his way there, and he promised the Golden Snake Battalion to support you guys with money and food. I wish you guys the best of luck. "
Yang Miaozhen cupped her hands and said, "Golden Snake King Gao Yi, we have received the money and rations that you sent last time, but … but it was snatched away by Xia Quan during the chaos of war." She glared at her nephew fiercely. It was all because of this prodigal son.
"Money is just a worldly possession. We can take it back if it's taken away." Song Qingshu didn't care. "Now Xia Quan and Liu Gu are attacking Yangzhou together. Does the Fourth Lady know about it?"
"What?" Yang Miaozhen suddenly stood up. She was hiding in the mountains now, so she wasn't as well-informed as before. Now that she knew about it, she immediately understood everything. She had only guessed before, but now she was sure that Liu Gu was behind Xia Quan.
Song Qingshu continued, "As for the Fourth Lady saying that she could defeat Li Quan with her own ability and take control of his subordinates, I think it's too presumptuous. I don't believe that Li Quan didn't prepare for it. If you don't believe me, why don't we go to his camp and have a look?"
Yang Miaozhen's expression changed. Finally, she nodded. "Okay!"
Both of them were swift and decisive people. It wasn't easy to lead an army to launch a surprise attack in a military camp, but it wasn't difficult for a top martial artist to sneak in quietly. Especially since Li Quan wasn't a famous general on the battlefield, the defense of his subordinates was far inferior to a regular army.
Yang Miaozhen was confident in her martial arts, so she decided to go with him to find out the truth. Worried that the news would leak, she asked the yellow-robed woman to stay here and watch over this group of people, not allowing anyone to enter or leave.
The two of them walked out of the tent and headed in the direction of another tent several li away. It was already late at night, and with the cover of the forest and their high martial arts skills, they were able to sneak in without alerting any of the guards along the way.
It wasn't so easy outside the commander's tent. There were more than a dozen guards around. Yang Miaozhen was in a bit of a dilemma. It wasn't difficult for her to deal with these guards with her Pear Blossom Spear, but that would alert other people and she would lose the purpose of gathering information.
But if they were here and some distance away from the main tent, it would be difficult for her to hear what the people inside were saying.
Just as she was in a dilemma, she saw a shadow flash by her side. Song Qingshu had already rushed out. His whole body turned into a shadow and swept past the dozen guards in an instant.
"Let's go. There's no problem now." In the blink of an eye, Song Qingshu had already returned to her side.
Approaching the side of the tent, Yang Miaozhen found that the acupoints of those guards had been sealed. They were standing still as if nothing had happened. She couldn't help but secretly click her tongue. His Qing Gong was really unpredictable.
At this time, a burst of laughter came from inside the tent. "Big Boss, that Fourth Lady has a great reputation in the army. She has always been very capable. Aren't you afraid that if you marry this tigress, she will make you a mere figurehead?"
Yang Miaozhen could tell that this was the voice of Li Quan's general, Liu Qingfu. Hearing him call her a tigress, a dangerous glint appeared in her eyes.
"No matter how powerful she is, she is still a woman. When she becomes my woman, her subordinates will naturally accept their fate. Who would really follow a woman to conquer the world?" Another slightly feminine voice sounded. Obviously, it was Li Quan's voice.
A trace of anger flashed in Yang Miaozhen's eyes. But she also knew that the other party was speaking the truth. As a woman, she was born with a great disadvantage. The soldiers subconsciously felt that it was more reliable to follow a man. However, she didn't build such a reputation for nothing. She had long been prepared for this trick.
At this moment, another person's voice rang out in the room, "But the Fourth Lady isn't stupid. Unless you've really avenged her brother and killed Xia Quan, why else would she agree to let you kiss her?"
The corner of Yang Miaozhen's mouth rose slightly. She was somewhat proud. She was not stupid. She didn't want to be annexed by the Golden Snake Battalion. Naturally, she also didn't want to be annexed by Li Quan. She could first establish a marriage with Li Quan. But if she didn't grasp the real benefits, how could she agree to let him get close to her?
"She has already become my wife. This is not up to her to decide." Li Quan laughed.
"Big Boss, it's not that we look down on you. Although your martial arts are very powerful, it is not comparable to the invincible Pear Blossom Spear. If she is not willing, you will be beaten badly if you want to get intimate with her." A group of people jeered.
Yang Miaozhen was secretly angry. She thought that this group of men always talked about despicable topics. They really deserved a beating.
"Since I dared to marry her, how could I not be prepared? Do you believe that I won't cook the rice tonight? "Li Quan chuckled.
"How?" Not to mention the group of subordinates, even Yang Miaozhen was confused. She thought to herself, if you want to use force, how could you be a match for me?
At this time, Li Quan's brother Li Fu laughed. "We have already bribed one of her subordinates. We put something in the tea she drank today. I guarantee that even if she is a virgin, she will become a slut."
Li Quan also stood up. "The effect of this medicine is slower than other medicines, but it is more powerful. It should be about time. I will go to her tent now. Don't let others take advantage of her."
"Big Boss is indeed wise!"
"What a clever plan. With this, the Red Coat Army will completely become Big Boss's subordinates."
"The thousands of defeated soldiers are nothing. The main thing is the Fourth Lady. Her figure and long legs are definitely powerful. Tsk tsk tsk, Big Boss is really lucky tonight."
…
Outside the tent, Song QingShu was dumbfounded. Where did they put the medicine they were talking about? Tea? Don't tell me it's the pot I just drank? I f * cking drank a few big cups!
