"I want to avenge my father!"

I don't know how long it took, but Sun Shangxiang's voice sounded faintly in the hall. The sadness on her pretty face had been suppressed, and was replaced by eyes that were like two balls of flame.

This is the fire and determination of revenge.

Sun Quan glanced at her and immediately understood what she was thinking. His sister wanted to join the army and fight in person.

Regarding this, Sun Quan refused and immediately said: "My eldest brother and I will avenge my father. What you should do now is to comfort your mother and let her not be too sad..."

It is not that there cannot be female generals in the army, but Sun Shangxiang's strength is just that he has just condensed the seventh level of martial arts. Three years ago, such strength could be called a first-class strongman, but now this strength is no longer enough to save his life on the battlefield.

There is no shortage of seventh-level generals in the army.

Sun Quan did not want his sister to suffer misfortune on the battlefield after his father died in the battle.

Sun Shangxiang wanted to get angry when she was rejected, but Sun Quan mentioned her mother and immediately asked her to suppress her anger. Indeed, if her mother knew that something happened to her father, she would not know how sad she would be.

She should really stay with her mother at this time to prevent her from being too sad.

"You should go back first. I will summon the officials immediately to discuss important matters..."

Sun Quan sent Sun Shangxiang away with a few words.

Then he walked out of the room and walked towards the main hall where Soochow specializes in meetings.



Outside Yangzhou City, groups of soldiers marched from the north and were placed in nearby military camps. The suburbs of hundreds of miles around almost turned into a large military camp.

More than 100,000 troops arrived one after another, adding a bit of chill to the originally prosperous and lively city of Yangzhou.

The murderous atmosphere of the army did not affect the people in the city.

There were even many small traders and hawkers who set up canopies on the roadside relatively close to the military camp, attracting the patronage of many soldiers. All Huai soldiers have more or less crystal coins on their bodies.

Crystal coins are slowly replacing food supplies and becoming the military pay for soldiers.

Crystal coins were issued to soldiers, who then spent them at vendors. Crystal coins that were originally only circulated in Sihong quickly became circulated in Yangzhou Prefecture through this method.

Han Kanwei stood not far from the military camp, looking at the groups of soldiers entering the military camp, as well as those who came out of the military camp with approval to buy various things, with a complicated expression on his face.

The soldiers of the Huai Army were all full of energy, and their energy far surpassed that of the soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty.

There are also those soldiers who go out to buy various things with crystal coins and get along well with the common people who sell things. This kind of relationship is not just a matter of friendship between the army and the people, but it is true that the army and the people are harmonious with each other.

The people under the Huai army did not reject or fear the soldiers.

Although the soldiers of the Southern Song Dynasty could not be said to be highly qualified, their status was definitely not high and they were regarded as lowly soldiers by many people.

Low status and lax military discipline... these are the shortcomings of the Southern Song Dynasty army.

Especially after seeing the performance of the soldiers of the Huai Army, Han Kanwei felt even more heavy. Even if he joined forces with the Huai Army to divide and annex Soochow, what would happen?

In the future, the Huai army occupied the east of the Yangtze River and was adjacent to the Song Dynasty. Such a neighbor was like a big mountain, which could suppress the Song Dynasty.

It is even necessary to deploy a large army to the north to guard against a possible surprise attack by the Huai army.

He stood there and thought for a long time.

In the end, I could only shake my head slightly. This kind of thing should be left to Zhang Jun and Yu Yunwen. Anyway, since they agreed to form an alliance with the Huai Army, they must have necessary reasons.

If you don’t understand it, don’t think about it.

At this time, a thundering cheer suddenly came from the distance. Han Kanwei immediately turned his eyes and saw two cavalrymen each holding a long pole with a piece of cloth hanging on it.

"Is this... Lu Bu reporting victory?"

Han Kanwei raised his eyebrows and looked immediately.

"Fu Youde, the general of the Huai army, led his elite troops southward to ambush Sun Jian, the leader of Soochow, east of Wuxi, and killed Sun Jian, Zhu Zhi, Huang Gai, and Cheng Pu..."

"Most of the more than 100,000 enemy troops were destroyed, and Wuxi was captured by General Yang Dayan..."

Han Kanwei's eyes grew bigger and bigger, and there was some uncontrollable shock in his eyes.

"How can this be?"

"How could it be so fast! When did the Huai army cross the river? How did they cross the Southern Qi River and ambush Sun Jian at the border of Wuxi? How could Xiao Daocheng just watch the Huai army cross the border?"

He had been in Yangzhou for several days and heard that a navy from the Huai Army entered the Yangtze River not long ago, but he never expected it.

This army of soldiers and horses was able to reach the border of Wuxi quietly.

Han Kanwei's heart was full of doubts and shock.

Of course, this is mainly because his status as an envoy is not high and he does not have the people around him to inquire about information, so he does not know many things.

When Fu Youde led his troops into Jiangyin.

Zhu Ming and Liu Song already knew that Xiao Daocheng might have defected to the Huai Army.

After all, Xiao Daocheng was also a prince in the south of the Yangtze River.

If they surrender to the Huai Army, the boundaries of Jiangyin and Changzhou will easily become the territory of the Huai Army. Zhu Ming and Liu Song were extremely shocked and envious of this.

At the same time, the threat from the Huai Army was put first.

If Zhu Yuanzhang had not led the troops outside and Liu Yu was still reorganizing his troops and wooing Liu Bi, maybe the two princes would join forces to cross the river and advance to Yangzhou as soon as they heard that Xiao Daocheng had surrendered to the Huai army.

Let the Huai army stop in the river and interrupt the palms stretching to the south of the Yangtze River.

"Okay, the king's army is invincible, and even Soochow dares to stop the king's troops..."

"The king is victorious!"

While Han Kanwei was shocked and dazed, many people and soldiers also heard the news of the victory, and they all cheered and cheered. The soldiers held their heads high and chests high, high-spirited and full of confidence.

Most of the people were dancing and happy for King Huai's victory.

Following Lu Bu's victory, the knights entered Yangzhou City.

Wherever he went, there were loud cheers from the officials, scholars, merchants in Yangzhou City, as well as the famous families who were paying attention to the battle situation of the army.

After knowing the news, he became as excited as the people and soldiers, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief.

They all know that the most feared part of the cross-river strategy is the tug-of-war.

If they could not cross the river quickly, Zhu Ming and Liu Song would definitely intervene. Now, the Huai army stormed into Jiangdong with thunderous force and killed Sun Jian, the leader of Soochow.

It can be predicted that Soochow will not be able to withstand the Huai army's offensive.

If we can capture Jiangdong and integrate it with the Jianghuai land, this will be the foundation of the Overlord!

Return to Yan Palace.

Wang Jing held a sharp and sharp sword.

"Is this the Sun family's magic weapon, the ancient ingot sword?"

He waved casually, and a sharp blade roared out immediately, splitting the void. This kind of edge gives people a great threat.

In the palace, there were also Gao Xi, Su Wei and others.
