"What a magic weapon!"
Wang Jing couldn't help but admire. When he held the ancient ingot sword, he could feel his own Gang Qi seeping into the blade, just like water flowing into the sea. The Gang Qi was blessed with a strange power.
This power originates from the space between heaven and earth, full of evil spirit and edge. It is not the vitality and spiritual energy between heaven and earth, but is close to the law itself.
The ancient ingot sword gave him the feeling of a ninth-level powerhouse fused with a hint of the Law of Killing.
When holding the magic weapon, this sword will naturally allow people to exert the powerful power of the law...
"In other words, does a magic weapon equal a ninth-level powerhouse?"
Wang Jing thought to himself.
If an eighth-level peak general holds a magic weapon, he can fight against a ninth-level general, and a ninth-level general holding a magic weapon can increase his strength by another level.
For example, Guan Yu, who holds the Qinglong Yanyue Sword, has a ninth level of heavenly strength. With the blessing of divine weapons, his strength can reach the peak of the heavenly level. He can surpass the heavenly level with half a foot and become a general on the same level as Lu Bu.
Without the magic weapon, Guan Yu is still a strong man in the heavenly realm, but his strength will definitely decline.
After realizing the role of the magic weapon.
Wang Jing couldn't help but pay attention to this. The magic weapons refined by the Taoists and craftsmen of the Construction Department can be effective against generals of the seventh level and above, but they are not a big threat to the ninth level.
If we increase our attention and investment in this aspect in the future, maybe the Huai Army will be able to refine the ninth-level magic weapon in the future.
"Your Majesty, now the Chinese army has assembled in Nantong Prefecture. The East Route Army will land at the Songjiang border in the near future. At this time, our army should take advantage of Sun Jian's death in battle and immediately cross the river south..."
After Wang Jing put down his sword, Gao Xi immediately stepped forward and said.
"Well, it's time to send troops!"
Wang Jing nodded slightly.
The reason why he did not cross the river immediately was to cover up Fu Youde's actions. Now that Fu Youde had successfully annihilated Sun Jian's troops, it was time for him to take action.
"Send an order for Lin Renzhao and Shi Wansui to lead the navy to dispatch and annihilate the Soochow Navy..."
Wang Jing ordered.
Cen Wenwen next to him immediately wrote an edict. When Wang Jing finished speaking, the edict was also completed.
…
When Wang Jing was preparing to send troops.
Sun Jian was killed in battle, and news of the deaths of Huang Gai and Cheng Pu began to spread among the people. This news was like a mine, exploding heavily on the water, splashing out countless splashes.
At first, this news was only passed among the core leaders of Zhu Ming and Liu Song. As the Huai army announced its victory, the spies hidden in Yangzhou quickly spread the news.
Both Chen Baxian, who had already sent troops to seize Lujiang territory, and Chen Gong of Xuzhou, were shocked after hearing the news.
Especially people like Chen Gong who came from the Three Kingdoms era.
He knew Sun Jian's abilities very well.
This kind of famous general of his generation who was supposed to be the pillar of Soochow was killed first when the Huai army was just about to go south.
Obviously, this will have an extremely serious negative impact on Soochow. A heavy blow to Soochow's military morale.
Soochow's military strength and power itself were inferior to the Huai army.
Now that we have suffered such a heavy blow, the chance of defeat is very high.
Jiangdu Province, Taixing Prefecture.
A middle-aged man with a slightly frail body swept around the city casually. His eyes seemed casual, but the places he passed were all important places for the city's defense.
There are lively scenes in the city, bustling streets, and some children running around in the streets and alleys.
The middle-aged man couldn't help but smile.
When passing a tea shop, his ears twitched slightly and he heard whispers inside, talking about news related to the Sun family of Soochow.
The middle-aged man just heard about this not long ago, and now he just heard it again.
However, another piece of news came from the tea shop, which shocked the middle-aged man.
Xiao Daocheng, the leader of Southern Qi, released Jiangyin's dock and ferry, allowing merchants from Jiangbei to enter Jiangnan through Jingjiangzhou... This was excellent news for many merchants in Jiangdu Province.
"Xiao Daocheng let go of Jiang Yin... He is going to surrender to Prince Huai completely!"
The middle-aged man sighed slightly in his heart.
After arriving in this world, he has been wandering in the south. This world is familiar yet unfamiliar. The princes from all walks of life are fighting each other, all thinking of competing for world supremacy. The battles between you and me make it difficult to see the situation clearly.
He first thought about defecting to his old master, but he didn't expect that the old master was eliminated in the early stage of the war between princes.
This made him feel sad.
However, the descendants of the old master were still there, which gave him some comfort.
"If Xiao Daocheng can be convinced, it seems that Prince Huai is indeed a wise master!"
The middle-aged man thought to himself, and couldn't help but quicken his pace and ran towards Yangzhou.
December 3, the fourth year of Taichu.
The army gathered in Yangzhou has already set off, and the soldiers of the West Route Army are taking boats to Jingjiangzhou and landing at the border of Jiangyin.
Wang Jing also wanted to leave Yangzhou and go to the Chinese army where Nantong Prefecture was located.
After the East Route Army and West Route Army set off.
The Central Route Army, as the main force, also quickly assembled in Nantong Prefecture. Formed a mighty force of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses.
Wang Jing took Gao Xi, Xie Hui and the temporarily transferred Cen Wenwen and other officials, and under the escort of Yuwen Chengdu, the commander of Bai'er elite soldiers, they set off slowly on the carriage.
Among them, Han Kanwei, who was the envoy, was also among the people accompanying the army.
Starting from Yangzhou was the West Route Army, which was not on the same route as Wang Jing.
Wang Jing only had 10,000 personal guards with him.
The march was not slow.
When they are about to enter the territory of Taixing Prefecture. Wang Jing, who was talking to Gao Xi, was keenly aware of an extremely powerful energy appearing in the distance in front of him.
This qi machine is different from the evil spirit of the generals. It has a touch of agility and also contains a hint of unparalleled edge.
As the leader, Yuwen Chengdu also noticed this aura, and immediately urged the dragon scale horse to run to the place where the aura was.
There was no sight of fighting.
soon.
Yuwen Chengdu returned to the carriage, with a trace of surprise still on his face. He said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the visitor is Chen Qingzhi, the famous general of Nanliang... I heard that your Majesty is about to cross the river, so I came here to join you!"
Wang Jing immediately turned his head, showing a look of surprise.
"Chen Qingzhi! It's him... Please invite me quickly, no, I will go and greet you personally!"
Wang Jing immediately got out of the chariot and went to greet him on foot.
This gesture fully demonstrated Wang Jing's sincerity in seeking talents.
Gao Xi and Cen Wenwen were also a little shaken at this time, but they quickly controlled their emotions.
Chen Qingzhi, a famous general in Nanliang. His reputation was somewhat exaggerated in later generations, but he was also the most famous general in Nanliang after Wei Rui.
Definitely at the ninth level.
Being able to get a ninth-level famous general to join him when crossing the Yangtze River was a very good sign for the Huai Army.
