"Please inform me that the Xiang Clan of Chu has come to discuss the great cause of rebelling against Qin.”
According to the information provided by the Xiang Clan, Cao Jiu and Zhongli He came to a stronghold and directly stated their purpose of coming.
Similarly, if they did not want to ally with them, they could also use the name of the Xiang Clan to escape unscathed.
“………”
The Bai Yue warriors who were guarding the entrance were probably not ordered to do so. They were holding simple weapons and were on guard against Zhong Li Xin and Zhong Li He.
"Holy Maiden, the Xiang Clan of Chu has come to request an audience. They wish to cooperate with our Bai Yue.”
The elder of the Bai Yue Tribe, Yu Luo, appeared in the forest and asked respectfully.
"Cooperation, I'm afraid it's using the word!”
Immediately after, a pleasant voice spread out, revealing an obvious coldness.
Unknowingly, it made people feel an inexplicable sense of retreat, as if something would happen in the next second.
"Saintess, the Xiang clan is not weak. They are the strongest among the six dynasties.”
Elder Yu Luo suggested, still kneeling.
"Elder Yu's words are correct. Then, let's see how sincere the Xiang Clan is.”
A woman with a veil over her face and a layer over her entire body said in a rather indifferent tone.
Even so, from her curvaceous curves and graceful figure, it could be seen that she was definitely an indescribably beautiful woman.
It was the Saintess of the Bai Yue Tribe, Shi Qionghua!
"Yes, Holy Maiden."
When he finished the last word, Yu Luo, who looked like an old man who was about to die, shuttled through the forest with quite agile movements.
"The Xiang Clan of Chu, Cao Jiu."
"The Xiang Clan of Chu Country, Zhong Li.”
Before long, Cao Jiu and Zhongli He arrived at a natural cave and said to the Bai Yue Saintess behind the screen.
“………”
Especially Zhongli He, who was a general. He raised his vigilance to the highest level and did not dare to be careless.
Any Saintess of the Bai Yue Tribe would be extremely skilled in martial arts and would be best at killing with one strike.
"Saintess of the Hundred Yue Country, we represent the Xiang Clan of Chu to come here. We only want to form an alliance to oppose the Qin Dynasty.”
Clearly, Cao Jiu knew of the other party's reputation, so he didn't bother with the formalities and went straight to the point.
"Is that so?"
"The Chu Country's foundation is in the south, while our Bai Yue is the exact opposite. We are far away in the southern region of Lingnan, and both sides do not have the conditions to form an alliance.”
Shi Qionghua first asked a question of her own before continuing, not knowing if she was mocking the other party for being overly vigilant or if she was scheming in her heart.
There are five hundred thousand Qin soldiers in Lingnan area. Even if there are ten Xiang Clans, they can't cause much trouble.
"We can't raise an army in Lingnan. We can completely rebel against Qin in an easy place and seize the remaining territory of the violent Qin. After accumulating strength, we can counterattack Lingnan.”
The saintess of the Bai Yue Tribe was indeed not easy to fool. Cao Jiu was shocked and changed his excuse.
For the remaining troops of the Bai Yue who were now homeless, the temptation of attacking Lingnan was undoubtedly very great. They could not help but feel tempted.
" We can borrow the Xiang Clan of Chu Country to seize the Ba and Shu lands of the Violent Qin. The Bai Yue Clan definitely won't be cannon fodder…"
Hearing this, Shi Qionghua's thoughts spun quickly. The first thing she thought of was not the old land of Chu, but the fertile land of Ba and Shu, a place that could be attacked and defended.
If they were in the Chu Country, once the momentum of the uprising was good, the Xiang Clan would definitely disappear from the Bai Yue Tribe.
"Tell me, what are your advantages, and what can my Bai Yue tribe gain?”
Since the other party wanted to use the Bai Yue tribe as cannon fodder, Shi Qionghua did not stand on ceremony and said in a cold tone.
"My Chu Country has already joined forces with the other five countries and is preparing to launch a plan against Qin. Holy Maiden can go and verify it.”
"As for the military supplies, such as spears, armor, etc., my Chu Country will directly provide them.”
Hearing that there were signs of an alliance, Cao Jiu explained the conditions Xiang Liang had given him.
"That's right, we can use the rations to restrict the Bai Yue tribes, in case they become too powerful.”
Upon hearing this, Zhong Li Qian nodded to himself. He immediately saw through the intention of restricting the other party.
The Bai Yue tribe lacked farming skills, thus, the overall amount of food produced was very small.
"We have obtained a large amount of military supplies for no reason, and we have taken Ba Shu, which can be defended and attacked. So what if we don't have food to replenish?”
Shi Qionghua, who was behind the screen, had a cold look in her eyes. The Bai Yue Tribe would not fight in Chu Land.
"In that case, you must provide the map of the Violent Qin. If you meet the people of the Bai Yue tribe, you cannot stop them or kill them.”
Maintaining a calm appearance, Shi Qionghua concealed the calculations in her heart and made the inclination to form an alliance.
"The Bai Yue tribe has already taken the bait, the alliance has already succeeded by more than half.”
Cao Jiu and Zhong Li Xi looked at each other and felt relieved when they heard that it was easy to achieve.
As long as they could form an alliance with the Bai Yue tribes, they would be able to hold back a portion of the Qin army, and the pressure they would face would be much less.
"Since both sides have formed an anti-Qin alliance, this is something that should be done. I hope that you can abide by it.”
Because he was in a good mood, Cao Jiu spoke much faster.
"Naturally…"
Similarly, Shi Qionghua, who had obtained a large amount of military supplies and entered the Bashu passage, was also very happy.
However, he still did not reveal it in his words. He concealed his emotions very well and possessed an extremely deep shrewdness.
"I'll send some military supplies to your stronghold in a few days.”
Both sides had reached an agreement. Cao Jiu, who wanted to return to report, had no reason to stay.
"Elder Yu, send off the representative of the Xiang Clan of Chu on behalf of our Bai Yue Tribe.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Qionghua, who was sitting behind the screen, gradually disappeared. No one knew where she had gone.
"Yes, Holy Maiden."
When Shi Qionghua, the Saintess of the Bai Yue Tribe, spoke, Elder Yu Luo appeared out of nowhere and appeared in Cao Jiu's line of sight.
Then, he made an inviting gesture to the two of them.
"Please…"
Cao Jiu made a gesture of invitation as he walked out of the cave.
“………”
Seeing the figure that suddenly appeared in front of him, Zhong Li He shortened the distance between him and Cao Jiu to protect him.
Even though they had already formed an alliance, they still had to be vigilant.
