As they rode north, song Qingshu suddenly asked, "since the red coat army has such a relationship with the Yang family, why does the imperial court sit by and ignore it? As far as I know, Liu Li, the governor of huaidong, led 30000 troops stationed in Chuzhou, so Xia Quan had no scruples? "

Yellow shirt female eyes flashed a trace of anger: "don't mention that surname Liu is OK, I'm angry when I mention it."

"What's the matter?" Song Qingshu vaguely remembers that Yang an'er seemed to be very dissatisfied with Liu Yu.

"It's all about the dispute between Han juezhou and Jia Sidao..." Huang shannu sighed and explained the whole story.

It turned out that Han kuozhou, who was devoted to the northern expedition, naturally attached great importance to these volunteers in the Central Plains. He sent Xu Xiji, a confidant of his heart, to be the governor of huaidong. Huairou won over these volunteers and even provided them with money, grain and weapons; But later, when Han Yuzhou fell, Xu Xiji naturally couldn't do it any more. His successor was Liu Fan of Jia school. He changed his previous policy of Huairou, but intended to completely eliminate the rebel army.

"Does the emperor care?" Song Qingshu doubts.

The yellow shirt girl sneered: "you don't know that our emperor is a capitulator. He is also worried that the existence of the red coat army has angered the people of the Jin Dynasty and implicated him. In addition, there were many scum in the red coat army. Some generals accepted the money, grain and materials of the imperial court, and at the same time secretly cooperated with the enemy to resell them. They were accepted by the ministers and became the last straw for the camel, which made the emperor kill him. "

Song Qingshu vaguely remembers that the red coat army in history was indeed an uprising at the beginning, but when it came to the back, some of the leading strata degenerated and began to support the army with self-respect. They found their way between the Jin, song and Mongolia. They first expanded their own power and did not obey the command of the Song Dynasty.

Of course, apart from the greed of human nature, all kinds of discriminatory policies of the Southern Song Dynasty, such as calling these volunteers the northern army, forbidding the northern army to enter the territory of the Southern Song Dynasty and embezzling money and food. When there was a dispute between the northern army and the southern army, the officer must have been partial to the southern army. In addition, the Song Dynasty had always been on guard against military generals, those means were naturally used by these volunteers, The secret suppression of their differentiation caused the rebels to chill one after another.

Huang shannu said again: "according to the intelligence analysis, this time Xia Quan annexed the red coat army, it was Liu Wei who supported it in the back."

Song Qingshu is a bit of praise: "this Liu's method is brilliant, so that the two tigers fight, and then reap profits, but now that we are involved, we can't let him achieve his wish."

"Well!" The yellow shirt girl secretly clenched her fist, thinking that she must rescue the Yang family this time.

After several hours on their way, they finally stopped in a small town. Huang shannu said, "wait for me in the teahouse in front of you. I'll come right away."

"Where are you going?" Song Qingshu doubts that there is no mobile phone in this world. What should we do if the two sides are separated? He's pressed for time this time. He can't waste it.

"I'll be back soon," she said

Song Qingshu asked, "is it convenient to go?"

"No!" She spat.

"Oh, I'll come with you, so that I won't get separated later." Song Qingshu followed.

"I'm going to buy clothes!" The yellow dress girl finally couldn't help looking at him.

"Oh, let's go." Song Qingshu said with a smile, what did he think it was when he saw her stammering? As for his own clothes, he would ask the shopkeeper to help him buy them at that time. There was no need to choose them by himself like a woman.

"How can this come together?" The woman in the yellow shirt is very embarrassed.

"Why not together? What's more, I said I'd pay for you. " In the past life, it should be a normal thing to accompany a woman to buy clothes, not to mention shopping with such a beautiful woman.

After all, Huang Shan girl still can't beat him. After he arrived at the clothes shop, he couldn't help but Tucao: "if you didn't know you never make complaints about the law, you must be a prodigal son."

"I'm not going in. I'll wait for you at the door. It's no way to be a disciple." Song Qingshu naturally knows that the defense between men and women in this era is very obvious. Shops selling women's goods will not sell men's things, and men will not set foot in such places at all. In addition, clothing stores are different from later generations. Most of the time, they only sell cloth or satin, and customers buy them and tailor them. Of course, there are also ready-made clothes to buy, but relatively few.

The woman in yellow shirt is too lazy to pay attention to him. She chooses clothes in the shop. Now she certainly has no time to buy cloth for clothes, so she can only buy ready-made clothes. When the boss saw a fairy like girl with outstanding temperament, he knew that it must be a big customer, and quickly called her warmly.

Song Qingshu leaned against the door and waited for some boredom. He asked, "by the way, I finally know what the next sentence means in the poem you told me last time."

The woman in the yellow shirt, who was choosing her clothes, had a flash of blush on her cheek: "what poem?"

"Spring grass will be green next year, and the next sentence is whether Wang and sun will return or not," Song Qingshu said with a smile on his face. "I didn't expect that you were expecting me to come back soon."

There was silence in the room. After a long time, she said, "I don't remember what poem I said to you."

"How can I say goodbye in the palace at that time, you..."

Song Qingshu also said that Huang shannu had quickly come out with a package: "if I say no, no!" Then he ran away without looking back.

I was about to chase him, but he was held by the boss of the shop: "Hey, I haven't paid yet..."

Song Qingshu was speechless for a while, so he had to throw him a piece of silver: "don't change it." Finish saying to hastily chase up.

The shop owner took a small scale to weigh the silver. After repeated confirmation, he couldn't help but curled his mouth: "no more, no less. It's just right. There's no need to change it. Bah, I'm so rich. I deserve that fairy girl to run away."

Song Qing Shu did not know the boss's Tucao behind him. Now he is sitting in a restaurant, enjoying the bright red face of the yellow shirt make complaints about "your skin is too pale on weekdays, and what is more, it is still healthy."

"It's up to you." The woman in the yellow shirt held up her tea cup to hide her confusion. She secretly regretted why she had been so obsessed that she had to leave him a poem. It was really a shame.

Song Qingshu holds her chin and looks at her side face quietly. Her face is as white as the first snow, and her soft lines are like a stroke. Usually, she is indifferent and indifferent. It's rare to see her coquettish. It's really pleasing to the eye.

"Have you seen enough?" Feeling his sight, the woman in the yellow shirt felt as if it were real, and she felt uncomfortable.

"Of course, I can't see enough," Song Qingshu said boldly. "The ancients were so beautiful that I finally understood what kind of experience it was."

"You this person..." Huang Shan Nu suddenly sighed, "no wonder you have so many confidants around you, there are really few girls in the world who can stop you from being so entangled."

Song Qingshu was stunned and said with a bitter smile, "heaven and earth have a good conscience. I was just thinking about you."

"And now?" The yellow dress girl's clear eyes looked at him.

"Er..." Song Qingshu suddenly fell into silence, and was reminded by what she had just said. At this time, many people came out of his mind. For example, he would pass Yangzhou on his way to the north. He hesitated whether to visit Zhou Zhiruo first. After all, the two people had been separated for a long time.

Huang Shan girl also gradually calmed down: "the poem I said to you last time was just out of friendship. Don't think about it."

Song Qingshu knows that she is cutting off her love in Huijian, deliberately alienating the relationship between the two sides. In fact, it's not impossible to get her heart as long as she uses her own means and brushes her favor. But now that she is in debt, many confidants can't see one or two sides all the year round. Do you really want to harm the new girl?

"I understand." Song Qingshu put away the idea of teasing and drank the wine in the cup.

See him suddenly lonely appearance, yellow shirt female gently bit lip, a time pour some in the heart can't bear: I am not too heartless some?

Just then, there was a loud noise not far away. A group of businessmen dressed up came in and drank wine and chatted: "have you heard that there is going to be a fight in Yangzhou?"

"Yangzhou?" Song Qingshu suddenly turned back. What's the matter? Why didn't he get any news.

The woman in the yellow shirt was also surprised, and she went along the same way.

"Isn't Yangzhou the territory of the king of Qi? Who dares to break ground on Taisui?"

"It's said that it's Xia Quan of the red coat army. This Xia Quan is extraordinary. Since Yang an'er was killed, he has emerged as a new force and annexed most of Yang an'er's forces. Now he has become the most powerful one of the red coat army."

"The Golden Snake camp and the red coat army have always had a good relationship. Why did they suddenly fight?"

"I don't know, but it's normal for them to fight for territory. Yangzhou is a famous rich place in the world. Who is not envious?"

"I don't know if the Song Dynasty can take advantage of the situation to go back to the north and recover Yangzhou."

"Come on, you don't know what the imperial court is all these years."

"Shh, be careful."

....

Hearing those people's comments, Huang shannu looked anxiously at Song Qingshu: "brother song, do you want to ask them about specific things?"

Song Qingshu shook his head: "no, they're just passing businessmen. They don't know much, and they can't ask anything specific."

"And now we are?" Asked the woman in yellow.

"Go." Song Qingshu got up and went out.

The yellow dress girl followed up in a hurry: "where to go?"

"The biggest brothel in the city."

“？....”

Huang shannu stayed outside the brothel and scattered many young men who came to chat with her. They thought she was a girl in the brothel and came to say that no matter how high the price was, they would redeem her.

"The bastard knew he was in with him." Huang shannu's face is very heavy. Just now Song Qingshu goes straight in. She hesitates for a long time and decides to wait for him outside. As a lady, how can she go to such a place?

But she soon regretted it. Standing in front of the brothel in this way was more eye-catching. She once again expelled an apprentice. She had to run to the opposite side to find a shadow and wait. She was also very angry: "this bastard, how do you come to such a place at this time?"

She is not a fool. She doesn't think that song Qingshu still wants to come to this place after hearing the news of Yangzhou being attacked. Of course, even if he didn't hear the news of Yangzhou being attacked, with so many confidants around him, he shouldn't want to come to this place. What's more, she is with him all the way, She didn't think there was anyone in the brothel more charming than her.

"Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, Pooh, poo Huang Shan Nu stamped her foot angrily and continued to look at the gate of the brothel. Finally, she saw song Qingshu coming out.

"Well, do you have any news?" Huang shannu met her and asked with some concern. Although she didn't know that song Qingshu had set up an intelligence network composed of brothels in the Southern Song Dynasty, she could roughly guess that he went in to inquire for information because of her intelligence. This kind of place is the place with the fastest flow of information.

Song Qingshu nodded and explained, "Xia Quan has swallowed Yang You's red coat army, and his power has increased greatly. This morning, he suddenly began to attack Yangzhou."

"Is there anything wrong with Yangzhou?" Huang Shan female asks eagerly, suddenly in the heart a Zheng, oneself why so nervous, Yangzhou and oneself have nothing to do with, is for him nervous? Think of here, a heart crazy jump a few times.

"Yangzhou is a big city. How can it be so easy to fall down?" Song Qing wrote in a worried way. "But compared with Xia Quan, I'm more worried about Liu's 30000 troops in Chuzhou."

Huang shannu was puzzled and said: "it's OK for Liu Wei to deal with the red coat army, but now you are the king of Qi conferred by the imperial court. Does he dare to attack your territory openly? That's not a light start to the war. He can't bear the responsibility. "

"Naturally, he didn't dare to attack Yangzhou openly, but..." Song Qingshu snorted coldly, "he can help Xia Quan secretly. I got the news that he not only quietly provided Xia Quan's money, food and soldiers, but also made the army stationed near Yangzhou City intentionally or unintentionally. In name, it was to help Yangzhou, but in fact it was to hinder Yangzhou's deployment, Moreover, because his army is covetous on the one side, Yangzhou's already few troops have to be divided to guard against him, which leads to more pressure against Xia Quan. "

Before he recovered Li Kexiu's territory and power, he got about 38000 elite soldiers. Later, Zhou Zhiruo gradually expanded the recruitment, and the number of soldiers was about 50000 or 60000. Because he followed the policy of Song Qing's calligraphy, the number of troops in Yangzhou was maintained at this level, and a large part of them had to defend the other prefectures, In Yangzhou City, if Zhou Zhiruo could mobilize field troops, there would be about 20000 or 30000 at most.

According to intelligence, Xia Quan's army has about 40000 or 50000 people, while Liu Yu's army has 30000. Although they are not necessarily as elite as Yangzhou's army, the number advantage is still quite obvious.

"But who gave him courage?" Huang Shan Nu was very puzzled. "Even if Liu Yu helped Xia Quan to defeat Yangzhou, what would be good for him? When will we face the censure of the imperial court and the Revenge of the Golden Snake camp? "

"Of course, it's Mr. Jia, our Pingzhang military official." Before Song Qingshu, he wondered, how could Jia Sidao's city be tied by a few women? Now I think it's just his way to paralyze himself. The main play is still in Yangzhou. In this way, you can naturally lead yourself here. Naturally, you have no time to care about Wudang.
