On this topic, although Song Lu was the chief envoy here, he did not interrupt. Instead, he focused on Song Shidao.
Compared to Song Lu, Song Shidao, as the legitimate son of the Song family and the future leader of the Song clan, is obviously more qualified to reply.
The so-called alliance is a coalition formed by two parties with common interests and common needs. In the current situation of the Song clan, the Destiny Alliance is undoubtedly the best ally.
Although Song Shidao does not have much ambition, he is well aware of the current situation in the world. He naturally knows the benefits of the alliance between the Song clan and the Tianming Army, and is willing to accept this matter. However, in this matter, he cannot tolerate it. He calls the shots,
Song Shidao smiled bitterly, "My father is very interested in the alliance. He just hopes that the king will go to Lingnan in person to discuss it!"
There was silence in the room for a moment, and Shen Luoyan frowned and said: "The Ming King is the master of the people, how can he be easily dispatched? The conditions of the Valve Master seem to be a bit difficult to deal with,"
Song Shidao breathed a sigh of relief, "I also know the difficulties faced by King Ming, but that's what my father said. If you want the two families to form an alliance, please ask King Ming to go to Lingnan for a discussion!
He hesitated slightly, then looked at Song Yuzhi, who had been silent since arriving here, gritted his teeth and said: "According to my father's wishes, if King Ming is willing to come to Lingnan, my father will betroth Yuzhi to Ming." King, let the two families get married and have good relations from generation to generation."
"this…"
Shen Luoyan wanted to object, but when she heard the second half of Song Shidao's sentence, she shut her mouth and turned to look at Qin Ran.
Qin Ran pondered slightly, it was not a big problem for him to go to Lingnan. The power of the Song Clan alone could hardly threaten him. As for whether the Song Clan would join forces with the Li Clan, Cihang Jingzhai and other forces to ambush him?
This is unlikely. Song Que is a staunch Han orthodox nationalist and has always been unfavorable to northern foreigners and Buddhist religions. If it weren't for this difference, maybe he and Fan Qinghui, the contemporary leader of Cihang Jingzhai, could have left each other. Come together.
As soon as he thought about this, Qin Ran nodded and said: "Since Lord Song has an appointment, I will go there in person. I also want to see how domineering the Song clan's Heavenly Sword is!"
Song Shidao, Song Lu, Song Yuzhi and others returned to the Song clan first, while Qin Ran had to arrange his defense first.
Fifteen days later, ten large five-tooth warships braved the wind and waves. Each large ship was followed by five second-class Huanglong warships. The mighty fleet set off from Yangzhou and headed all the way along the coast to Hainan.
The Wuya Ship, the main battleship of the Sui Dynasty, could each carry eight hundred sergeants, while the Huanglong warship could also carry more than a hundred sergeants.
Qin Ran led a total of more than 10,000 elite soldiers and various miscellaneous personnel to go south, preparing to go to the Lingnan Song Dynasty to fulfill the agreement and marry Song Yuzhi, the princess of the Song Dynasty.
The current Qin Ran is the leader of the largest force in the south. He is no longer an ordinary martial arts person. He is certainly not the same as Kou Zhong who shamelessly went south to seek marriage in the original novel.
The main warships inherited from the Sui Army and the elite soldiers who have been baptized by blood and fire all demonstrate the majesty of the iron army sweeping the south.
And with such military strength, they can no longer fear any threats in the south.
Of course, this trip is not a war. Ten thousand soldiers should be no more or less, which will not arouse the sensitivity of the Song clan and will not lose the prestige of the Destiny Alliance. It took Qin Ran a lot of brains to figure out this scale.
At the same time, another 20,000 soldiers marched secretly, passing through the original Baling County of Liang Wang Xiaoxian, and were already lurking not far from Cangwu County. If the Song clan made any changes, it would only take half a day to invade the Song clan's location.
Yulin County.
Such two-hand preparation can be said to be prepared for any trouble.
At this time, Qin Ran, the Holy King of Destiny, was standing on the deck, with his hands behind his back, letting the hunting wind blow his royal robes constantly fluttering, but he looked like a king.
On his left and right stood Fu Junzhuo and Huanwan respectively.
Fu Junzhuo is responsible for transmitting information. As for Huanhuan, this girl is here to contact the 'Nanhai Faction', one of the eight gangs and ten sects. The former Yinkui Faction has many connections with the Nanhai Faction.
Of course, the lovable little witch Wenwan could not escape the fate of sleeping every night. Apart from losing her virginity, she also lost everything else that should be lost.
Huanhua has also gradually adapted to her destined status as a concubine. Although she often behaves a little reluctantly, she is like a kitten with its teeth and claws. It is just used as a spice for daily interactions, adding a bit of boudoir happiness.
Huanwen chuckled and said: "This Nanhai sect is also aware of the current affairs, and actually took the initiative to join us. It's not stupid to cheat on the old man."
Qin Ran also smiled and said: "The Nanhai Faction and the Song Clan have always had a grudge. It is only because the main interests of the two parties do not conflict much that the Song Clan does not suppress them too much. Now it is clear that our interests are consistent with the Song Clan, and the news of the marriage has spread
The Nanhai Sect is naturally frightened. Under the iron heel of the Destiny Army, the Nanhai Sect's poor family fortune may turn into powder in an instant. How dare they not surrender?"
It turned out that the Nanhai Faction, which was located further south in Zhuya County, had already sent ships to wait for Qin Ran and his fleet, delivering a letter of surrender. The leader, Mei Xun, personally led the way. Qin Ran was naturally happy to accept it. At this point, the forces under his command
Stretched again.
It took almost a week in total, and finally arrived at Yulin County, the territory of the Song Clan, with the Song Family Mountain City in sight.
In the Sui Dynasty, there were twenty counties in Lingnan. The core of the Tang Dynasty was Yulin County, where the Song Dynasty was located. Compared with the prosperous Central Plains, Lingnan was like an uncivilized land. The mountain people were fierce and untamed.

It is difficult for Song Que to conquer the world by himself. Under the powerful appearance of the Song clan, there are still flaws that are difficult to erase.
Although Song Que insisted on Han unification, all parts of Lingnan were occupied by ethnic minorities. Although the prefect was dispatched by the imperial court, the chiefs of each tribe still managed the internal affairs of the ethnic group. No matter how powerful Song Que's sword skills were, the influence of the Song family
No matter how huge it is, it cannot change the situation in which ethnic minorities make up the majority.
Therefore, if the so-called Song Lingnan Army were to mobilize troops influenced by the Song clan at one time, their number might reach 100,000.
However, this kind of army is composed entirely of foreign troops. It is difficult to achieve success in entering the interior, and it cannot really give strict orders. It may burn, kill and loot. The real Song army's all-out effort is actually only ten thousand.
In this way, Song Dynasty was still able to protect itself, but it was not enterprising enough. In the end, it could only cooperate with other princes.
This is also the reason why Song Que formed an alliance with Kou Zhong in the original work and now wants to form an alliance with Qin Ran.
At this time, the Song clan had already sent a ship to greet them, and the leader was Song Lu.
Qin Ran naturally said a few polite words, then followed Song Lu ashore, stepped into the carriage specially selected by the Song clan, and drove towards the mountain city.
Huanwan and related personnel also mounted the war horses brought by the Song clan and followed closely behind.
A large number of sergeants were stranded on the ship.
Of course, this is also Qin Ran's self-confidence as the pinnacle of martial arts in the world. Even if he were to go it alone, the Song Clan would never be able to retain him with all their strength.
