Within the military commanders,
There are also various hierarchical systems of contempt.
Generally speaking,
Those who inherited military leadership positions looked down on those of other backgrounds.
Zhao Xin was even less suitable.
He succeeded by currying favor with Gao Feng.
Fortunately, he rose to become the Defense Commissioner of Yizhou Prefecture.
Martial artists are generally straightforward by nature.
Naturally, I look down on such sycophants.
Zhao Xin didn't care about the officers' attitude.
They hurriedly went to greet Huang Kui.
"Supervisor Huang, thank you for waiting!"
"It's alright, we've only been here a short time,"
Commander Huang Kui laughed heartily.
Unlike those low-ranking generals who only cared about throwing tantrums,
For Zhao Xin, this celebrity who graces the front page of magazines,
He naturally didn't want to offend anyone easily.
"Summon the defense commissioner! Look, the vanguard of Liangshan has obtained cavalry!"
Supervisor Huang pointed to the area below the city wall.
"The leading general was actually a woman?"
"I'd only ever heard people say how incredibly powerful Liangshan was,"
"Only now do I realize that seeing is believing."
"There's no one left on Liangshan, not even a woman has come to the battlefield to cause trouble!"
After Huang Kui finished speaking,
His four commanders
They all burst into laughter.
At this time, in the Northern Song Dynasty,
Although Neo-Confucianism had not yet emerged.
There weren't as many restrictions on women.
But in military campaigns
However, these were all considered to be men's affairs.
There's no place for women to get involved!
Seeing that all the generals were laughing and underestimating the enemy,
Zhao Xin couldn't help but frown.
He grew up with sorghum.
But in terms of martial arts,
They have consistently been far inferior to their opponents.
Not to mention,
Two days ago, on Rouge Mountain,
He almost died at the hands of Gaoliang.
Others may look down on women,
But Zhao Xin would absolutely not!
Huang Kui and his men looked down on this female general from Liangshan.
Zhao Xin couldn't help but remind him,
"My lord, since this woman can lead the army on her own at Liangshan, she must be quite capable. It would be better not to underestimate her."
"Summon the Defense Commissioner? What abilities can a woman possibly possess?"
Supervisor Huang smiled dismissively.
"You're being way too cautious!"
"I don't think it's just caution; some people are probably genuinely scared."
Commander Zhao Long sneered.
"He thought this was inside the bed?"
"Some pretty boys are obviously spineless cowards,"
Another officer, Qian Feihu, also laughed.
"He probably lost to some woman in bed last night, and he's still scared and apprehensive today!"
The remaining two officers, Sun Lin and Li Fengming,
Although he didn't say anything,
But his face was full of sarcasm.
Although Zhao Xin harbored resentment in his heart,
But they couldn't do anything about these Imperial Guard officers.
These officers were all Huang Kui's subordinates.
Zhao Xin also understood,
Although this Supervisor Huang is now greeting him with a smile,
But this is only because of Gao Feng's influence.
Once one day
He lost his status under Gao Feng.
I'm afraid this Supervisor Huang...
They would immediately become like these officers.
They greeted him with a hostile attitude.
Seeing that Zhao Xin remained silent,
The four officers exchanged a smile.
The contempt in his words was palpable.
"My lord, this cavalry force is merely the vanguard of Liangshan,"
Zhao Long suggested,
"Why not take advantage of the fact that the Liangshan army is still behind us and wipe out this cavalry force in one fell swoop? That would also dampen Liangshan's morale."
"this........"
Supervisor Huang was still pondering,
Qian Feihu had already spoken up with his suggestion.
"My lord, we have long heard that the Imperial Guard Commander is highly skilled in martial arts,"
"Previously, on Rouge Mountain, we wiped out a group of Liangshan bandits."
"Why don't we let this garrison commander lead his troops out of the city and let us broaden our horizons?"
"Yes, let us see it too,"
The remaining three officers spoke in unison.
"Summon the Defense Commander, look at this..."
Supervisor Huang looked at Zhao Xin with a smile.
"Since everyone is willing to give you the credit, you shouldn't refuse!"
First achievement?
That's the power of a fart!
It's clearly you who are worried about a Liangshan ambush outside.
That's why they let me go out and test the waters!
Zhao Xin harbored resentment in his heart.
But for a time,
But it's not easy to refuse.
He had no real power base in the Yizhou Prefecture army to begin with.
If you refuse now,
I'm afraid they'll look down on me even more from these Imperial Guards.
"Very well, Supervisor Huang, I will proceed immediately..."
Zhao Xin hadn't finished speaking when
Then they saw the Liangshan cavalry not far away.
Suddenly, he spurred his horse and arrived at the foot of the city wall.
next moment,
He then drew his bow and nocked an arrow!
"Watch out for arrows!"
The four officers hurriedly protected Supervisor Huang Kui.
Retreat towards the city wall!
next moment,
Hundreds of arrows rained down from below the city walls.
They shot straight up the city wall!
Zhao Xin used his waist knife to deflect several incoming arrows.
They immediately noticed the strip of cloth tied to the arrow shaft.
At this time,
The Liangshan cavalry were located below the city wall.
After firing a volley of arrows
He immediately spurred his horse and rode off into the distance.
Before leaving,
The leading woman shouted arrogantly at the city gate tower.
"Listen up, corrupt officials of Yizhou Prefecture!"
"Tomorrow morning, our Liangshan army will besiege Yizhou Prefecture!"
"You'd better surrender sooner, and you'll be spared from suffering!"
"Otherwise, once Liangshan captures Yizhou City tomorrow, you corrupt officials will all be waiting to have your heads chopped off, won't you?"
After saying this,
