"My concubine has grown old and her beauty has faded, so why do she go there to do so much?" Zhao Yu stuffed a grape into Shao Shude's mouth and said with a smile.

"You just gave birth to a child for me, which is not enough." Shao Shude said with a smile, "I must go."

Zhao Yu glanced at him worriedly: "Okay."

Shao Shude smiled happily. Seeing that there was no one around, he made a "random promise" and said: "One day when I become emperor, I will make you a noble concubine."

"The king must have made such a promise to others."

Shao Shude was speechless. He had no impression of it, but he seemed to have it.

Zhao Yu chuckled lightly, touched Shao Shude's face with his hand, and said, "Then I'm waiting to be a noble concubine."

Men also need to be coaxed, especially these warriors. They fight and kill all day long, and they also guard against rebellion and rebellion. If they are not careful, they can become extremely violent.

I don’t know what the women around Zhu Quanzhong and Li Keyong are like.

Zhao Yu heard that Zhu Quanzhong had met his wife Zhang by chance before he became rich, and fell in love with her. Many years later, they met in Tongzhou and were ecstatic. At that time, Zhang had already married, and Zhu Quanzhong didn't mind and married her.

My true wife, I respect you very much.

None of these warriors have peace of mind, and they all have devils hidden in their hearts.

"Commander, the bodyguards have packed up and are heading south to Huazhou." Zheng Yong, the tenth general of the bodyguards, lingered in the distance for a long time. After seeing Shao Shude getting up, he stepped forward to report.

The two thousand infantry and cavalry of the bodyguards are all under the command of Yulin and Woyang palaces. They are all full-time professional soldiers. There are tribal herdsmen offering cattle and sheep. They have been training for almost two years. This time they all went south to practice on the battlefield.

"Send orders to Shuofang and the prefectures in Weibei to prepare grain, grass, and equipment. As soon as the autumn harvest is over, the master will be recruited and transferred to Huazhou."

"The soldiers are packing up their luggage - it's not that fast. Let them wait until the Double Ninth Festival before setting off."

"As commanded."

The army is moving south!

Shao Shude also felt a little uneasy.

After all, this is the first time he has fought with the princes of the Central Plains. The shadow of the famous tree, Zhu Quanzhong, has such a great reputation!

Tens of thousands of elite soldiers from Xuanwu and more than 100,000 soldiers from Cai were recruited to fight in the south and north, and in the east and in the west. I don't know what their combat effectiveness is.

It would be great if Zhu Quanzhong could be defeated quickly! This country needs to retain as much energy as possible.

From the late Tang Dynasty to the Northern Song Dynasty, seven dynasties were constantly fighting each other.

The more people die, the more the people fight, the poorer they become, and the more the soldiers fight, the weaker they become. It is simply a vicious cycle.

The soldiers in the vassal town who had just pacified Huang Chao were probably the most elite.

Shao Shude remembered that in the Later Han Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty, due to the sharp decline in population and the collapse of the economy, the warriors could no longer pay their salaries normally. As a result, military discipline was worse than in the late Tang Dynasty, and the supply of equipment was not as good as before.

In the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, he didn't know how the imperial army at Zhao Kuangyin's hands was compared to now. It should be inferior.

At least in the later Tang Dynasty, they were able to defeat the many with less, and defeated the Khitans many times.

What Zhao Kuangyin has on hand is a bunch of spoiled uncle soldiers. No matter how skilled they are, the discipline and ethos are not enough.

But Zhao Kuangyin should not take the blame. From the late Tang Dynasty to the later Zhou Dynasty, everyone was responsible.

The economy is collapsing bit by bit, military discipline is deteriorating step by step, and people are also becoming rotten step by step.
