Chapter 644 - Must Get Married
That night, the eldest princess and Qu Xi left the Splendid Villa together, and it is said that the two found a place to chat while drinking tea, and did not go back until dawn. When Qin Baichuan knew these things, it was already half a month later. The eldest princess didn't hide it from Qin Baichuan, and told her exactly how Gao Yue pitted Qu Xi, how she appeared, and what she said to Qu Xi.
Hearing that Gao Yue actually wanted to pit Qu Xi, Qin Baichuan was furious, and listening to his confidantes uniting together, Qin Baichuan was very moved, listening to Qu Xi's sentence and waiting for him to go home, Qin Baichuan felt that everything he had done had meaning. However, when he heard that the eldest prince was going to recruit him to solve the big problem of the king of martial arts for the horse, Qin Baichuan was about to break again.
Perhaps, the eldest princess's method is the most ingenious and direct way to resolve grudges, but for Qin Baichuan, having an awkward fight with King Wu is nothing more than to protect the people around him, but if you marry the eldest princess and are destined to lose Qu Xi, what is the point of not resolving hatred with King Wu?
The eldest princess also said very tactfully: "Qin Baichuan, don't think that I am destroying the relationship between you and Qu Xi, in fact, what benefits have I gained from it?" At the end of the day, I'm just a victim of royalty. The eldest princess's words were over, but how could Qin Baichuan not think of the deep meaning?
Firearms have already threatened Dasong Jiangshan, and the emperor, who was originally an ally, may catch Qu Xi and others at any time and threaten himself. The eldest princess did this, of course, for the benefit of the royal family, but why didn't she sacrifice herself to buy Qin Baichuan more time? In a sense, judging from the current situation, Qin Baichuan and the eldest princess are more of a combination of interests.
The words given by the emperor are also very clear, if Qin Baichuan agrees to marry the eldest princess, he will rush back to Dasong within a month at the latest, and within this month, the emperor can ensure that all the relatives of Quxi and even Qin Baichuan are as stable as Mount Tai, but if this period is exceeded, no one knows what will happen.
Everything seems confusing, and perhaps a better solution is that Qin Baichuan can lead an army of hundreds of thousands to the south and completely seize the country of Dasong, so that he can live according to his own wishes. But...... Is it possible? Is it really possible?
Qin Baichuan fell into a huge entanglement, but he no longer had the energy to think about this, because with the passage of time, the sergeants of the Bliss Army have been able to control the war horses freely, so according to the agreement between Qin Baichuan and Temur, the battle with the Great Silver Iron Cavalry is about to begin.
In fact, after entering June, the Great Silver Kingdom has sent envoys to the quicksand tribe to ask for war horses, but was denied by Temur and again and again, three days ago, that is, the day the eldest princess returned, the Great Silver envoy issued an ultimatum, if there is no war horse to offer, then the iron horse of the Great Silver will come to fetch it in person.
The quicksand tribe received a secret report that a team of at least five or six hundred people from the border tribe of the Great Silver Country had set out, and if everything went well, they would enter the realm of the quicksand tribe that night. After receiving this news, the Quicksand Tribe immediately became nervous, and according to the previous agreement, this battle must be led by the Bliss Army.
Speaking of which, this month, Wu Erya has secretly transported a lot of weapons and baggage, coupled with the increasing proficiency in controlling the war horse, the entire Bliss Army is holding back its strength. When the secret news came, the young men of the Bliss Army were not afraid of anything, but were filled with a passion for battle.
There was almost no need for Qin Baichuan to do any pre-war mobilization actions, and after analyzing the intelligence, Ji Wuxuan issued battle orders one by one. In response to the call, the Qingfeng War Department went first, and the rest of the troops followed, and in the past month, Temur and Qin Baichuan have also established a very deep relationship, worried that there will be an accident in the Bliss Army, and Temur personally led the army to respond.
……
At noon on the fourth day, a group of cavalrymen dressed in half-cut animal skin clothing marched rapidly against the sun, and finally came across a small oasis, and the leader of the cavalry ordered the cavalry to rest. The man at the head had a thick beard, looked to be in his thirties, and had a hideous scar on his face.
The sergeants were cooking on the spot, and the leader stuffed a piece of mutton that was not yet fully cooked into his mouth, took a sip of wine, and wiped the wine from his beard: "What's the matter with Elm?" The quicksand tribe hasn't sent the war horse over yet? ”
"General Ali, not yet." One of the accompanying sergeants said, "It looks like the quicksand tribe is ready to fight us to the end. ”
"The quicksand tribe is not large in number, but their combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated." General Ali seemed rugged, but his thinking was also meticulous: "The Great Khan has ordered that in a few months, we will attack Dasong, and before that, try to avoid unnecessary battle losses." ”
"It is estimated that all the soldiers are reluctant to start a war with the group of madmen of the quicksand tribe, but if it really starts, we are not afraid of them." The cavalry of the desert always spoke with a big grin, they didn't care about their own lives, they didn't even care about their own lives, and of course they didn't care about the lives of others.
"It's not that we don't want to go to war, it's that even if we defeat the quicksand tribe, we won't get any benefit!" General Ali saw it very thoroughly, and snorted: "We are just beating them this time, so that they know our strength!" ”
"Understood!" The sergeants raised their scimitars and laughed loudly.
They said happily, but they didn't even notice that in a lush area not far from them, several people were covered with green plants, holding binoculars wrapped in aquatic plants, and were closely watching their every move. They are the scouts of the Qingfeng War Department.
The position of scout is extremely risky, so the most cautious sergeants are selected, and they waited until the big silver people said that they were tired and went to sleep, and the leader made a series of gestures, and the entourage behind him understood, made gestures in response, and secretly withdrew.
Turning the col, several scouts pulled out their hidden horses and galloped wildly. After running for about thirty miles, several temporary tents appeared in front of them, and these scouts did not hesitate and rushed directly into it. Outside the tent, Qin Baichuan looked at them expressionlessly.
"Principal Qin!" The scout rolled down from his horse, saluted a military salute, and the man who led the team said: "We have been in close contact with the iron cavalry of the Great Silver Country, and the general who led the team is named Ali, this time bringing five hundred and eighty people, the tactical purpose is to knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, and there is no defense for us at present!" Our captain stayed there to keep an eye on them, and if they left in the afternoon, they would be able to get there at night! ”
"Good work." Qin Baichuan was very satisfied with the information reported by the scouts, saluted them, waved his hand and said, "Go, go back and rest, later, let's be here and make a good meal for these big silver people!" ”
"Yes!" The scouts answered neatly.
