Silla, Singyeongseong.

Youzhou was indeed sent several groups of messengers to look for Zhou Shaoyu, but to no avail, he could only wait in Xinqing City. And the news brought by the last wave of messengers was naturally Li Xiuning's decision to send troops.

Calculating the time, nearly half a month has passed, even if he rushes back immediately at this time, counting the time halfway, maybe the decisive battle will be over, Zhou Shaoyu simply won't go anywhere during this time, just wait for news in Xinqing City. Anyway, at the moment, the Jin people are not plundering Silla, and it is not much fun to fight the Rogue Kou army, and it is also embarrassing.

In the end, the Liukou army is all Silla people, and if they really kill too much, it will inevitably make the Silla people have opinions, after all, Zhou Shaoyu is just an outsider. This kind of thing is most suitable to be handed over to Kim Seon-deok, the queen of Silla.

This is also the first time Zhou Shaoyu officially met with Jin Shande, and Zhou Shaoyu still knows something about the queen's style, such as deliberately wearing plain clothes and even showing people with patches, in order to invite people to buy people's hearts, showing that the queen is very attentive for the country and everyone.

However, when I saw it, it was not like this at all.

Wearing a brightly colored Silla costume on his body, and various gold jewelry hair accessories inserted in his hair, it can be described as how luxurious it is. The Silla costumes of the two worlds are very similar, there is not much difference, they are all integrated with their own people through the influence of the clothing of the Central Plains Dynasty, and with the development of time, the colors become more and more gorgeous.

"The finest Jiangnan silk and Suzhou embroidery?" Zhou Shaoyu is a little playful, it seems that this queen is not so poor. But think about it, maybe it was really not rich at first, but the magnates who cooperated with the Daliang garrison to pit Silla before were very cleaned, even if some of them were taken away by the Daliang garrison, the rest can always be scavenged with a lot of good things.

Jin Shande does not have the majestic temperament of the queen as he imagined, which is somewhat related to her shorter size, and she is not very old, and she is only twenty-nine years old, if it weren't for this, Jin Shande would have been married a long time ago, how could she be set aside to be the puppet queen.

Silla has always been famous for its beautiful women, not only in the Daliang Dynasty, but even in the previous dynasties, Silla maids have always been a high-ranking and powerful existence, and they are very sought-after. Silla has been in the country for a long time, and the royal family has continued to this day, and under the integration of generations, there are naturally a lot of excellent genes, and I dare not say anything else, at least in appearance, it is enough to amaze many people, that is, Silla itself is generally not tall, and it is not excellent in this regard, and even Kim Sun-deok is far from the average level of the royal family.

That's it, he still has a very childish baby face, and under the costume, he looks more like a porcelain doll, and he doesn't know that he won't think about the queen at all.

To be honest, Zhou Shaoyu's opening remarks were a bit rude, but at this moment it was a private meeting, and there were no outsiders, as long as Jin Shande had no opinion, then there was no problem.

"If it weren't for the knowledge that the king was coming, the little girl would not have dressed like this, and for the sake of respect, she should show herself the most beautiful posture." Jin Shande has a deferential tone, and there is a little charm. This is combined with her baby face and small size, as well as a not-so-standard beam accent, which is indeed a bit of a contrast.

"Forget the title of the king, it's really weird, you yourself are the queen." Zhou Shaoyu waved his hand and sat down on the guest seat by himself, and did not dominate the main seat belonging to Jin Shande. "There's no need to be so nervous, I'm still quite casual, since you can finally seek me, you must have some understanding."

When Jin Shande heard this, he covered his mouth and smiled, it seemed that his shoulders were indeed a little looser, but he thought in his heart, it is precisely because he understands something that he does this, who in the world does not know that your wives and concubines are in groups and each of them is stunning, what does this mean? Explain well...... cough, if you want to say something nice, it means that you are sad about the beauty. Except for the fact that he is a little bit unreachable, Kim Sun-deok is still relatively confident in himself.

Silla wants stability and development, she wants to sit on the throne, who else can she ask for if she doesn't ask Zhou Shaoyu? You can't go to Da Liang anymore, Gao Yuyao is not so easy to get along with, at best, she will only be used as a role to be used, and once it is useless, she can be put aside immediately.

"The small country of Silla, and the big chaos, since it is not as rich as Shangbang, the little woman has ordered someone to prepare wine and food, all of which are Silla specialties, and I hope Zhou Langjun likes it." I don't know if it's intentional, Jin Shande also specially paused for a small meeting on the word "Zhou Langjun", if he didn't pay attention, he thought he was calling Zhou Lang.

Zhou Shaoyu also couldn't cry or laugh, do you want to do this, as for Silla's special food, Zhou Shaoyu asked with a strange face: "Could it be that kimchi?" ”

No way, when it comes to eating in this place, what else can you think of besides kimchi? Oh, and cold noodles!

In fact, this is still somewhat one-sided, the staple food in Silla is actually from large white rice, since it is a meal, how can you have no vegetables, kimchi is only a side dish after all. Silla people love to drink soup, especially miso soup, and some snacks and pastries do have some characteristics, and by the way, they also love dog meat......

Of course, it's still the same sentence, kimchi, it must be indispensable.

In a huge room, there is a table of dishes, which looks like a lot of dishes, and the plates are not small, but in fact, the portions are quite small. Zhou Shaoyu didn't sit on the main seat, Jin Shande didn't sit either, and he didn't even let outsiders enter the house to serve left and right, but directly took on the role of a maid.

Zhou Shaoyu said calmly, Queen Silla is not fake, but who can have a background in her own sister, it's just a small scene. If it is replaced by a new crossing, it may not be able to bear it. Just kidding, can you feel a little bit about such a humble service of a dignified queen?

No matter how people behave, that's someone else's business, Zhou Shaoyu can't really act recklessly, basically behaves in a good manner, which makes Jin Shande a little disappointed, he works so hard, and even dances a song, but he doesn't see Zhou Shaoyu's reaction, which more or less makes Jin Shande a little discouraged and unwilling, is it possible that his posture is insufficient? Or does Zhou Shaoyu not like his own one?

In addition, I was relieved and relieved. Although she was mentally prepared to put down her body, no one wanted to be humiliated for nothing, and it was the first time she had seen her. If there really is any special fetish, wouldn't it be miserable. Fortunately, Zhou Shaoyu is really a humble gentleman and has no side meaning, which makes Jin Shande a little better.

When he learned that Zhou Shaoyu came to Xinqing City, Jin Shande was still very nervous for a while, in order to increase his understanding, he didn't even know where to find a copy of "Zhou Shaoyu's Rhymes" that was circulating in the market, the story there was an unbearable story, but fortunately, it was all made up by others.

Thinking of this, Kim Sun-deok couldn't help but blush. Fortunately, I drank some small wine here, but I couldn't see it.

"The Jin people are now running to fight a decisive battle with the Turkic Ashina Kuqin, and the control of Silla during this period is the weakest, you should say that during this period, seize the opportunity to do more things, such as sending envoys to the north to recruit the Liukou army of various tribes of An, maybe there are Jin people, not much to recruit, but at least a tolerant attitude should be shown. In addition...... "After dinner, Zhou Shaoyu refused the after-dinner program, and Zhou Shaoyu began to talk about business straightforwardly.

Although the queen's service is very cool, but at the moment, Zhou Shaoyu is really not in the mood, but her own sister is going to join others in a decisive battle, how can she not worry. Moreover, now is indeed an excellent time for Silla to stabilize itself, and for the time being, except for the southwestern part of Silla, the rest of the country is in chaos. Don't look at the southeast part of the country without the Jin people to disturb it, but there are more and more people from the east who come to loot, and they are becoming more and more wanton.

For a long time, it seems that most of the time it is the girls who are in direct charge, but after going through so much, they have laid a huge territory from scratch, how can they still be a straw bag, for the current situation in Silla, Zhou Shaoyu is also talking eloquently, unconsciously, Kim Sun-deok also has a serious face, nodding from time to time, or sending out doubtful questions, absorbing experience bit by bit.

Zhou Shaoyu was quite serious, but with the passage of time, she couldn't bear it, this girl was a little cute, every time she asked questions, she must have a subconscious action, that is, her little head was slightly off, she blinked a few bright eyes and then looked at you.

Ahh

In other words, Zhou Shaoyu almost forgot that he really raised an indigenous little Lori at home, and she should be nominally her daughter-in-law. That was back in the time of Ashina Falcon, didn't this former khan give his youngest daughter to Zhou Shaoyu.

Khan, who hasn't seen it for a long time, has been kept in Taewon City, and I don't know who is in charge now.

"Ahem, let's do it today, it's not early, let's talk tomorrow." Zhou Shaoyu still has a lot to say, the layout of Silla is still quite important to Zhou Shaoyu, of course, the premise of its development is complete integration and assimilation.

Jin Shande was suddenly embarrassed, originally planned to have a good reception, but he didn't want to become Zhou Shaoyu's teaching to her, so he hurriedly got up and said, "Why don't you stay in the palace......"

Jin Shande stopped before he finished speaking, even if he had such preparation and awareness, he didn't keep people so directly, how ashamed he was. For a while, I was shy and at a loss.

Zhou Shaoyu laughed, shook his head, and politely refused: "It's better to forget it, leave a man to stay in the palace overnight, this matter will be spread out, how much it will be detrimental to your queen image." ”

He simply left, leaving Kim Sun-deok confused, what does this mean is that he really refused? Or do you have to change places if you can't do it in the palace?

In terms of the girders, Xiao is still facing off across the river from the girders, even if there are more warships delivered by Xiangzhou, and there are behemoths like building ships, but the number is still limited. Taking the building boat as an example, even if a boat can carry 3,000 people, which seems to be a lot, it is indeed only 3,000 people.

But at least the two sides of the water division have begun to fight, and Xiao Shuishi, who has expanded again, naturally has the upper hand. This is also due to the fact that he ate Sun Shouren's troops, otherwise for a while, ordinary soldiers would not be able to serve as sailors.

But in Sun Shangxiang's words, they are all rookies pecking each other, not to mention the small number of people, and there are not too many rules and regulations for fighting. Under what circumstances what kind of warship should be deployed, whether it is an arrow or a straight rush, etc., etc., that is a problem, obviously this aspect is a bit chaotic, very immature, so that Sun Shangxiang can't look down on it.

But I have to admit that compared with these two rookie sailors, Ange's sailors are indeed much stronger. Its basic plate is the original Jiangxia sailor, and in addition to that, the water kou who has been begging for a living in Yunmengze all the year round are all experienced soldiers, and the number far exceeds the 30,000 sailors under her command.

Mo guarded the river at the mouth of the oil river to contain An Ge, but if An Ge really made a large-scale dispatch, Sun Shangxiang had to avoid it. Fortunately, the purpose itself is not to start a war with it, but only to contain it.

On the other hand, Huofeng is playing hot in Huizhou.

Huizhou's defensive strategy is to defend the city, not to directly engage Huofeng, and when the battle in Jingzhou is over, there should be a large army to the north to help. Huofeng naturally won't have nothing to attack any city, and his entry into Huizhou is just a strategy to lure the enemy and contain him, the real target is still in Qingzhou, and there is no need to waste his troops here.

Besides, not everyone can hide within the walls. Although there was a large Liang army that put on a posture of confrontation with it, in fact, it did not dare to fight directly at all. Huofeng directly ignored it, and led a large army to rampant in Huizhou, looting a lot of people, and even conquering a small city that was not as strong as three or two.

Originally, the name of Huofeng in Huizhou had the effect of stopping children's crying, such a trouble, the reputation is even more than in the past, God knows how it spread, there are actually people who say that Huofeng's usual food and drink is blood, as if demonized.

Although it is safe to defend the city for the time being, the circulation of materials has become a big problem, the most direct manifestation of which is the soaring grain prices in Huizhou, and the people are miserable. If it weren't for the change of the current grassroots management of Daliang, the former corrupt officials would have been in a big mess.

And at this point, there are some things that Gao Yuyao can't suppress if she wants to.

Huizhou is also a large state, with a large population, and it is the source of soldiers in Daliang at present, second only to Qingzhou. One of the new armies of the Great Liang that was formed later was basically composed of people from Huizhou, but this army is currently stationed in Qingzhou and is responsible for defending Jizhou.

It's just that under the chaos in their hometown, how can the soldiers of this army still be in the mood. They petitioned to move to Huizhou for rescue, but they were forced by the military order of Shangfeng, but they could not be pressed to this point, and they basically couldn't hold it down, and if they continued to press, it would cause a mutiny, and for now, there have been escapees.

The matter reached Jingshi, and after thinking about it, Gao Yuyao also issued an order to agree to this matter, so Qingzhou is a strong defensive place, even if this one is missing, there are still enough soldiers and horses to garrison, and the impact will not be too great.

However, this matter is right in the middle, at the beginning of the fight, Huofeng's strategy here was to attack Qingzhou. If you don't seek the whole territory of Qingzhou, at least you have to disrupt the layout of Qingzhou, especially Penglai in the northeast corner, the more chaotic the better, which affects the logistics and supply, and the Penglai sailor can only be forced to transfer.
