Chapter 535
Bai Susu didn't care about the water droplets on her body, but changed the subject, and suddenly asked about the Song Dynasty's dispatch of troops. She was a little worried about this, and how much threat the Song Army would pose to Southern Tang.

Because the Bai family is too large and rich, it has become the richest man in Runzhou.

Such a Bai family will undoubtedly become a wealthy businessman who is concerned at home and abroad. Once there is chaos, bandits will rush into the rich family, burn, kill and rob. The Bai family is already preparing to develop the Bai family's private armed forces.

However, it can be done to deal with bandits. If the Song army and the Vietnamese army invaded Runzhou, a guard team composed of more than 100 family warriors from the Bai family would not be able to compete with the army.

It can be imagined that at that time, the Bai family had no choice but to hand over a large amount of wealth in exchange for personal safety.

Even, Li Tangguo and Wuyueguo had been at odds for decades and generations of hatred. Once Runzhou was conquered by the Wuyue army, many family members of officials, wealthy households and gentry in the city would all suffer.

This is indeed the case. According to historical records, Song soldiers and Wu Yue soldiers invaded Jinling City, and the people died a lot. There was a Shengyuan Temple in the city with a ten-foot-high pavilion. The burning of the temple, the cries in the pavilion moved the sky, and no one was spared. It happened in history.

Therefore, it is quite reasonable for Bai Susu to be so worried, because when Chuzhou and Yangzhou in Jiangbei fell, many wealthy and gentry in the city were looted, even men were killed and women were humiliated, which made Bai Susu feel uneasy.

This is also one of the reasons why Bai Susu came to Jinling City. He wanted to ask Su Chen face to face whether the situation in the court could withstand the Song army. Back plan.

Su Chen hesitated, and said: "For the time being, it's hard to say, Bureau Song is indeed going south, and will arrive at the north bank of the Yangtze River in a few days, and is still constantly mobilizing the imperial army and garrisons from various places. At that time, we can gather 20 troops to attack Tang. At the same time, There is a high probability that Wuyue Kingdom will also send troops from the east, but I think that the current Tang Kingdom will not be conquered by the Song army at once, as long as Master Han Xizai, General Lin Renzhao and others are present, they will be able to resist the Song army's invasion."

"Are you so confident in Master Han, General Lin?"

Bai Susu was a little curious, he felt that Su Chen seemed to be extra confident when he mentioned these two people.

Su Chen smiled, and said: "The Song Army didn't even clear up the small country of Bashu. Our Tang Kingdom has such a large territory, and the Yangtze River is naturally dangerous. Naturally, there is no need to be afraid. I think the Song Army probably won't take advantage of this attack."

Seeing Su Chen say this, Bai Susu felt relieved, after all, she had grown to admire Su Chen's views.

Now that Su Chen is the number one scholar, he works in the imperial court, and he is very close to Han Xizai, Xu Xuan, Gao Yuan and other ministers, and they went through this discussion together, so Bai Susu felt that Su Chen must know the internal and key information, and be able to read the battle situation have an accurate assessment.

In fact, she didn't know, it was all Su Chen's own guess.

At this time, Peng Jingjing came out and heard the topic of the two people's discussion, she smiled lightly: "Sister Susu, you don't have to worry, even if Song Jun really calls, Su Chen and I are still there, it must be in the way of Run Zhouqian, fight to the death with Song Jun."

"Wars are the affairs of the imperial court army, why are you joining in the fun?" Bai Susu heard Peng Jingjing's words and thought she was bragging, so she scolded her for being brave.

When Peng Jingjing heard this, she immediately became stubborn, and replied: "Sister Susu, you don't know that, back then, Su Chen and I fought against the Song Army in Bashu, and the reason why the Song Army was defeated was Su Chen's fault." reason!"

"What?" Bai Susu was taken aback.

Peng Jingjing was straightforward, and she didn't treat Bai Susu as an outsider, so she said it right away, and even Su Chen didn't have time to interrupt her.

However, Bai Susu is also her own person, so it's okay to know, lest she worry, she may need the cooperation of the Bai family in the future.

"Brother Chen, what Jingjing said is the truth?"

Su Chen met Bai Susu's gaze, nodded slightly, and explained: "After the Mid-Autumn Festival last year, Jingjing and Jing Yun and I went on a long journey, and followed the second prince of the Shu Kingdom to the Kingdom of Shu, and then followed the Shu Army to fight against the Song Army. We repelled the elite imperial guards of the Great Song Dynasty head-on, so the Song Army is not that scary, it was defeated by us before, so you should feel at ease now."

After listening to Su Chen's explanation, Bai Susu was a little stunned.

Yang Ling'er listened silently, and sighed inwardly: Hu Bo's words are indeed true, Shu's defeat of the Song army has something to do with his righteous brother!
But at this time, when she heard that Su Chen was confident in helping Tang Jun defeat Song Jun, she was still somewhat worried.

From her point of view of restoring Yang Wu, Yang Ling'er did not want Tang Jun to win, it would be better if all three losers, and completely hurt Tang's vitality.

Yang Ling'er looked at Su Chen, but she couldn't explain directly, her expression was a bit lonely, she was thinking about how to find an opportunity to show off with Su Chen.

"This time the Tang State has deployed, how to fight against the Song army?" Bai Susu asked again.

At this moment, Yang Ling'er also pricked up her ears and listened carefully.

But Su Chen shook his head and said: "I don't know yet. In the past two days, Lord Han and Lord Xu have frequently entered the palace to discuss matters in the Chengxin Hall, discussing how to deploy troops and deploy them in advance to deal with the Song Dynasty. The Southern Expedition has not yet been decided. If someone advocates the war, there will naturally be someone who advocates peace, and the debate is still ongoing."

Bai Susu fell silent after hearing the words, and didn't ask any further questions, but Peng Jingjing was a little tempted and said: "Brother Su Chen, when you say that, will we have a chance to lead the army to fight? It was really enjoyable to be the Marquis of Duyu last time. I have read a lot of military books in the past six months, and I think it is no problem to be a general of Zhonglang. If you can go out this time, you must take me with you and make me a vanguard general, and I will go to the front for you."

Su Chen looked at her and was speechless. Why is his fiancée so different? She wants to learn from Mu Guiying to be in charge!

"I will apply to the Privy Council in the future, and I will give you the entire Detachment of Women Army, and lead a female soldier, nicknamed the Detachment of Women!"

"Okay, okay!" Peng Jingjing was very happy when she heard this, but she didn't realize that it was Su Chen talking ironically.

"Come on, don't join in the fun, your father knows you have this idea, so he will definitely circle you up." Su Chen directly touched her cold water, and took out her father to press Jingjing.

"I won't be afraid if the women's university won't be able to stay!" Peng Jingjing is becoming less and less afraid of her father now, mainly because of her own wealth, unlike before relying on her father for pocket money, so she is more independent.

Bai Susu shook her head and smiled, this Peng Jingjing still loves to mess around so much.

Yang Ling'er, who was next to him, saw it, but frowned slightly, and hesitated to speak; would his brother-in-law send troops to help Tang Guo fight the Song army, and what should he do?
