Chapter 498 White Flag Backer City
In Laiwu City, Song Jiang heard that the Hunjiang Dragon had a great victory in the Zihe River. He attacked with underwater cannons and defeated the imperial navy in one battle. He captured more than 200 large and small ships and captured more than 2,000 fishermen and sailors. He defeated the navy in formation. Commander Niu Bangxi couldn't help but be overjoyed.
The news of the great victory spread throughout the armies, and for a while, the city of Laiwu burst into cheers.
Hu Yanzhuo and other tribes outside the city couldn't help but commotion after hearing the cheers in the city. Hu Yanzhuo ordered the cavalry troops to suppress them, and then they calmed down a little. The newly arrived soldiers and horses from Lingzhou were fine, but the morale of Hu Yanzhuo's troops was inevitably much lower. After all, I have been away from home for a long time, fighting every day, and complaining.
But because of this great victory, Song Jiang discussed with Lai Yong'er: "The imperial court still has a naval army to conquer us. Now that most of the underwater cannons were used in the first battle, we need to purchase another batch." I wonder if Liu Menglong is willing to sell it?"
Lai Yong'er said: "Brother, this Zhao Zhen is really a villain. He is two-faced. On the one hand, he robbed our city, and on the other hand, he secretly communicated with us. If we want to buy this underwater cannon, he will definitely be willing to sell it. We can use this to make a big deal." Defeating the army can highlight his merits."
"At the beginning, he sent someone to send thousands of underwater cannons, but he wanted a thousand taels of gold, and he could pay later. Now if he wants to buy it again, he will have to pay it on the spot together with the previous payment. It seems that he has already settled it."
Song Jiang said: "If we can defeat Liu Menglong's navy again, our way back will be safe. Although Erlang's place is blocked by the Liangshan Army, when the time comes, let Li Jun brothers reach over from the sea and capture these long-unaccustomed soldiers." The water soldiers are readily available. As for some gold and silver, as long as you don’t die, you can’t find them anywhere.”
"Brother is right. He said at the beginning that Zhao Daguan can still sell 2,000 underwater cannons. I will prepare enough gold, silver and jewelry and arrange for [Ugly Scholar] Wan Qide to go and trade." Lai Yong'er said .
Song Jiang nodded and said: "I have to use all my strength here to defeat the official army outside the city as soon as possible. In this way, we can have a chance to breathe. With Zhao Daguan here, we want to win, but I'm afraid we can't. Fortunately, we can go to Goryeo. If you stand alone, you will eventually come back."
Let's talk about Wan Qide here. After receiving orders from Lai Yong'er, he went to Song Taigong to take out the gold and silver treasures for trading, folded them up, and under the protection of more than a hundred soldiers, the group disguised themselves as merchants and took the road to Yiyuan County.
Not long after, Zhao Zhen received a pigeon letter, sending Du Xing, who had returned from Ju County, to go.
Zhao Zhen here intends to strengthen the power of the Qingzhou thieves navy, and also wants to make money from the Qingzhou thieves' plunder.
Song Jiang, the Qingzhou thief, heard Li Jun's praise of the underwater cannons. In order to deal with the imperial navy, he naturally did not want to let it go.
Both parties are interested, and the transaction will naturally go smoothly.
During this period, Xu He and Wei Fuliang also communicated clearly and went to Sishui to take up posts. Xu Qingniang and Chen Lingwei also changed their positions.
Since she made up her mind to marry Yan Shude, Wang Gongren stopped calling her that way and changed her surname back to her maiden name. Cheng Waner personally presided over the wedding, and Zhao Zhen pointed out a new group of singers and dancers in the state, boasted about it, and held a banquet to celebrate. The wedding was really lively for two days.
As for Zhao Zhen taking concubines, it is much simpler. Zhao Zhen only invited civil and military officials from nearby areas and did not ask for congratulations. He only had a day of feasting and feasting.
On that day, Baishi Manor was decorated with lanterns and colorful candles.
Tu Qiao also took off her usual high-end clothes and changed into a floor-length skirt, with many pearls and emerald flowers on her temples. Moving slowly and gently, very graceful.

At night, Zhao Zhen entered Tu Qiao's room and saw exactly:
A man is a romantic man, he knows that the cardamom is just beginning to bloom, but he dares to be in a violent storm, so he can only cherish it with light pity.
Nudun is a simple woman who knows that kindness is unavoidable. She can only endure it with furrowed brows when ridiculing her.
A moment of pleasure, a thousand kinds of tenderness.
The two had a night of love, and they seemed to be inseparable. When they got up at dawn, Tu Qiao came out of the room and served tea to Cheng Wan'er, and they became a family.
In the hall, Zhao Zhen and Cheng Waner were sitting at the top, and the others were sitting on both sides.
Cheng Wan'er said: "Sister Tu, I see that in the past few days, besides being busy with marriage matters, you have been focusing on training with Sanniang and Liqing's cavalry. Do you also want to command the female cavalry in the future?"
This book was recently updated in ##六x-on:x-on:九x-on:x-on:书x-on:x-on:!! Updated!
Tu Qiao replied: "Sister, I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child. Now that I can use it, I naturally miss it."
Hu Sanniang said: "Sister Jiao is good at martial arts. Except for Sister Liqing, no one in the cavalry team dares to say that they can beat her."
Zhao Zhen said: "In two days, I asked the weapons supervisor to modify the set of second-level gold lotus leaf helmets and chain plum blossom armor according to your body size. They will be used in battle. In the past few days, Have you thought about it?"
"Official, I've thought about it. Sanniang's [Green Flag and Willow Leaf Capital] and Liqing's [Red Flag Daughter's Capital] have enough manpower, and their lieutenants are all ready. After I go there, it will be difficult for me to do anything. I I thought about recruiting a female cavalry to protect the officials, so I came up with a name, "White Flag Backing City". "What do the officials think?"
"I don't object if you want to form your own army. It's just that this deputy general is incompetent." Zhao Zhen said.
"Officer, I have found this deputy general as well."
Seeing everyone looking at him, Tu Qiao said, "Yan Dong'er."
[Jin Le Silk] Chu Yuan said: "She is tall and powerful. Apart from Fourth Sister Hei, she is the number one female in the house. But she is not good at horse fighting."
After hearing this, Tu Qiao said: "It doesn't matter. I fight on horseback, and all my subordinates are foot soldiers. I have asked all these women, and apart from Yan Dong'er, there are thirty others who are willing to come."
Zhao Zhen thought for a while and said: "If you are interested, then do it like this. Since it is called the capital of backers, those who are not enough can also be recruited from the maidens in the state. Among the maidens in the village, select those with innocent wealth, and then recruit them. Recruit some and keep them.”
