    Some time ago, the noisy clan caused great pressure on He Jin.

    However, what Liu Ke didn¡¯t expect was that He Jin actually sent a letter of apology.

    The apology letter was so eloquent that Guo Jia couldn't help but be impressed.

    "Then He Jin, is it possible that his brain is flooded?" Dian Wei couldn't help but laugh.

    "No, no, I'm afraid He Jin has a big plan." Guo Jiadao, what kind of interests can make He Jin take a big step forward and retreat?

    "I'm afraid King Chen Liu's life may not be saved!" Liu Ke sighed.

    Guo Jia also thought of the same answer, He Jin is going to attack King Chenliu!

    Now the entire capital is under He Jin's control, and even the ten ministers who once had the most power in the world dare not speak loudly in front of him.  The only Empress Dowager Dong who could compete with He Jin was dead. Now He Jin's sister is the Empress Dowager.

    No matter what, King Chenliu was the late emperor¡¯s favorite child, and He Jin could not keep him.

    Liu Ke doesn¡¯t intend to wade into troubled waters. We are not relatives, so there is no need to be embarrassed.

    It¡¯s just that he was still disgusted, so he ordered his men to print 10,000 copies of this apology letter for everyone in the world to appreciate.

    Sell ??one copy for ten gold!

    Sure enough, the whole world was shocked.  When the clan members of the Han Dynasty saw it, they were elated. He Jin was still a good person!

    Liu Ke also earned a small amount of pocket money.

    After three months of growing up like this, Liu Ke lay comfortably in Dongyang and refused to move, until Guo Jia brought everyone to force him to have a baby.

    Guo Jia casually called a servant in Liu Ke's house and asked, "Have you ever gotten up, my lord?"

    When the servant saw Guo Jia, he quickly saluted and said, "For military advisor, the young master got up early today. After practicing martial arts for a while, he was handling official business in the study!"

    The Lord is not tired Guo Jia breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that Liu Ke would lose his ambition, and then it would be difficult for his subordinates to get along.

    "Yeah!" Guo Jia nodded heavily and led everyone straight towards Liu Ke's study.

    Guo Jia walked into Liu Ke's study with a smile, snickered at the thick book case, and then raised his hands to Liu Ke and said, "How are you, my lord?"

    "Yeah!" Liu Ke replied, then frowned, what happened to so many people?

    "My lord, all counties in Yangzhou can come down!"

    Guo Jia made his purpose clear in one sentence without any twists and turns.

    Liu Ke knew that they had been waiting for this sentence for a long time.

    It¡¯s hard to refuse!

    Liu Ke has always believed that a steady and steady approach is the right path, so he does not have too many demands on territory.

    But the subordinates don¡¯t think so. It¡¯s a joke that Yangzhou Mu can¡¯t control Yangzhou.

    When Yuan Shu was defeated, it was the best time to capture the entire Yangzhou. Because the navy army failed, some time was wasted.

    Now, everyone knows that the Yangtze River Basin is in the hands of Gan Ning, that is, in the hands of Liu Ke. If Yangzhou is not captured now, how long will it take?

    "Moreover, after a good harvest, Dongyang's grain supply was full. Lu Su built ten warehouses and stored 400,000 shi of grain.

    What¡¯s more, sweet potatoes and corn will soon be introduced to Guangling County and Jiujiang County, so there is no need to worry about food.

    With a strong army and sufficient food, it is a good time to make achievements.

    "Let Gan Ning prepare to escort the army across the river!" Liu Kedao said.

    Everyone happily accepted the order.

    After occupying the two counties, Liu Ke's troops had reached 120,000. This time, he directly ordered 80,000 troops and went south in a mighty manner.

    The whole of Yangzhou has changed.

    Before crossing the river, Xu Gong, the governor of Wu County, sent his confidant Xu Jing!

    Liu Ke smiled in his heart and looked at Guo Jia.  Then he looked at Jian Yong and said in a deep voice, "If you are not assisting your master in Wu County, what are you doing here?"

    Xu Jing was flustered and secretly thought that Liu Dingfang was really not easy to get along with.  He forced a smile, cupped his hands and said, "My lord was forced by that bitch Yuan Shu, so he raised an army to offend Yangzhou Mu. It was not his intention. I learned that Yangzhou Mu has benevolence and righteousness, so I came here to apologize!"

    "If you don't come to apologize earlier, if you don't come later to apologize, I will come when I want to beat you. What's the truth?"

    Liu Ke was angry and funny, and said in a deep voice: "When the army came to the city, you remembered me. Let me ask you, is this what your lord meant?"

    Xu Jing had a change of thought in his mind and couldn't help but sigh and said, "My lord is kind and doesn't want all the people in Wu County to be in ruins, so why don't we ask Yangzhou to do it?"Let the people of Wu County have a way out!  "

    This person¡¯s ability to confuse right and wrong is truly amazing!  He actually used the safety of the people of Wu County to criticize Liu Ke.

    Liu Ke didn¡¯t want to talk to him anymore and signaled Guo Jia to communicate with him.

    As soon as Guo Jia came up, he pressed Xu Jing and couldn't breathe. He said:

    "In that case, why didn't Xu Gong offer the city?"

    Xu Jing was speechless when asked, and said incoherently: "My lord is the prefect of Wu County who was appointed by the late emperor. He has always loved the people like his son, why should the Yangzhou shepherd bother to force me!"

    Only a fool would use a dead person to crush others.

    "Love the people as your own children? Stop talking nonsense, wait until I take Xu Gong's head and see how many people in Wu County will see him off!" Liu Kedao.

    Xu Jing was just thrown out by the guards.

    "The army is crossing the river!"

    It took a full day for the 80,000-strong army to cross the river and land at Qu'a.

    Liu Ke captured the counties in Yangzhou during this trip and divided his troops into two groups.  Along the way, with Zhao Yun as the commander and Xun You as the military advisor, they led 50,000 troops and headed towards Danyang County.

    Liu Ke personally led an army of 30,000 people, with Guo Jia as military advisor, Huang Zhong and Tai Shici as deputy generals, and headed for Wu County.

    Xu Gong, the governor of Wu County, built a strong wall and cleared the countryside. He gathered 10,000 troops from east to west to defend Wu County.

    Three days later, Liu Ke arrived in Wuxian.

    Xu Gong climbed up the tower and looked at the Dongyang military camp in the distance, feeling extremely frightened in his heart.  His appeal for help from Wang Lang, the prefect of Kuaiji, fell into vain, and he is now isolated and helpless.

    Fortunately, only 30,000 Dongyang troops came.

    The next day, Liu Ke left 5,000 soldiers to guard the camp, and sent all the remaining 25,000 troops to Wuxian to provoke him.

    Dian Wei looked at Liu Ke, who nodded.  So Dian Wei rode out and shouted: "The herdsmen from Yangzhou have arrived, but they still haven't surrendered!"

    Xu Gong sighed. There were no generals in the city who could reply. How could we fight this battle?

    In just one day, the Dongyang Army used ladders to attack the city. Like tigers entering a flock of sheep, they slaughtered all the defenders.

    Prefect Xu Gong grabbed the ground with his head, but was seriously injured and was imprisoned.

    Xu Jing, a close confidant of Xu Gong, led the gentry in the city to welcome Yangzhou Mu into the city. It was a great victory.

    The next day, Liu Ke ordered Xu Gong to be restrained and paraded through the streets. Although the people did not intercede for him, no one threw stones at him. After searching his mansion, they found only a few thousand gold.

    So, Liu Ke ordered Hua Tuo to cure Xu Gong and just exile him.

    Because Liu Ke suddenly remembered something. In history, the little overlord Sun Ce was assassinated by his disciples because he killed Xu Gong.

    Liu Ke is confident to face any emergencies, but his family is in trouble, so he can't be cautious in the future.

    On the third day, Zhao Yun also sent news that Zhou Xin, the governor of Danyang, had surrendered.

    In this way, Liu Ke stopped staying and left some troops to guard Wu County, and then went straight to Kuaiji, while Zhao Yun also headed for Yuzhang.

    Along the way, Liu Ke encountered no resistance, and Wang Lang, the prefect of Kuaiji, was as frightened as a bird.

    Wang Lang sat on the edge of the bed, quietly reading through the news and battle reports collected by the scouts. The more he read, the more frightened he became, and his forehead was sweating without even realizing it.

    "Lord, we can still hold on!" Yu Fan encouraged. As Wang Lang's first adviser, he cannot lose confidence, otherwise it will be all over.

    Wang Lang was silent for a long time and then said: "Ever since my husband followed me, Jing Xing has never forgotten my teachings. It's just that today is different from the past."

    Wang Lang thought of when he was young, when he first arrived in Kuaiji and saw that the local people were still offering sacrifices to Qin Shihuang, he bravely stopped them.  He believed that Qin Shihuang was an immoral king and did not deserve to be sacrificed by the people.

    Now, Yangzhou Mu Liu Ke is as irritable as Qin Shihuang, which is not a blessing to the people.

    Because of this, when Yuan Shu summoned everyone to fight against Liu Ke, he was so active.

    It¡¯s just that now it¡¯s causing trouble.

    Seeing that Wang Lang had lost his fighting spirit, Yu Fan could only take a step back and said:

    "In this case, our army will retreat to Jiaozhou first to avoid its sharp edge and wait for the opportunity."

    "That's all we have to do." Wang Lang said.

    Soon, Liu Ke arrived in Kuaiji, but only got an empty city. After finding out Wang Lang's whereabouts, he chased him wildly.  Finally they met in Jiaozhou. The two armies fought for an hour before Wang Lang surrendered.

    On the other side, as soon as Zhao Yun's army arrived in Yuzhang, they were attacked by Zhuge Xuan at night.  Fortunately, the Dongyang Army was well-trained and caused almost no casualties, but suffered heavy losses in food and grass.

    "But what Zhuge Xuan didn't know was that the Dongyang Army's most indispensable shortage was food and grass.

    Zhao Yun led the army to attack fiercely, but Zhuge Xuan couldn't resist it and ran away secretly with his family.

    I searched for a long time, but to no avail.

    In this way, except for Lujiang County, Yangzhou has completely fallen into Liu Ke's hands.

    This news soon reached He Jin¡¯s ears, and a lot of good things were smashed.

    Now whenever he hears Liu Dingfang's name, He Jin will naturally become angry, and there is no need for Yuan Shu to add fuel to the fire.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Yun Yun led the army to attack fiercely, but Zhuge Xuan couldn't resist it and ran away secretly with his family.
