    This time Liu Ke went south with only 80,000 troops.

    Quantity is not decisive.

    However, it was with these troops that Liu Ke defeated the arrogant North Route Allied Forces.

    Liu Bei, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan, Yuan Shao and others combined a total of 650,000 troops. Now they have been defeated and retreated, which has witnessed the strength of the Yangzhou Army.

    The strongest army in the world is nothing more than this.

    With the momentum of a great victory, the Yangzhou army crossed the Yangtze River in mighty force and headed straight for Kuaiji.

    After arriving at Kuaiji, Liu Ke stood still and gathered a large army, which reached 150,000 troops.

    Of course, some are miscellaneous troops.

    Liu Ke was unifying the troops, preparing food and fodder, and sharpening his sword.

    During this period, Zang Ba and Zhang Zhao came together to report on their work. Liu Ke exposed the matter with a small punishment and a big warning.  The commitment to Tibetan tyrants to join the main battle corps has not changed.

    "Thank you, Lord!" Zang Ba said. He had been frightened during this period, but now he is finally relieved.

    "Don't let your guard down, the war is not over yet." Liu Kedao.

    "Yes! Lord." Zang Ba said.

    At the same time, Liu Ke held a meeting to discuss how to deal with Sun Cejun.

    "It is better to have General Gan go up the Yangtze River and harass Sun Ce's army." Zhang Zhao suggested.

    Gan Ning has 30,000 naval troops with extremely strong combat effectiveness.

    "My lord has promised not to enter Jingzhou, how can he lose a big thing because of a small thing?" Guo Jia objected.

    There are now more than two years left.

    Zhang Zhao knew he had made a mistake and retreated.

    "Our army now has 150,000 troops, why not call it 300,000 to scare Sun Ce." Guo Jiadao.

    Liu Ke couldn¡¯t laugh or cry.  All along, Liu Ke didn't care about what the Allies claimed. Now that Guo Jia made this suggestion, it always felt a little awkward.

    "We feel good." Dian Wei agreed, and everyone agreed.

    Liu Ke didn¡¯t say much and asked Wang Can to draft a magnificent document to persuade Sun Ce to withdraw.

    If you can't fight, don't fight. Wouldn't it be easier to wait a few years when Yangzhou's strength improves and then take revenge with overwhelming force?

    Liu Ke has already planned a major military expansion to make up for the shortage of troops.  Of course, this work was scheduled after the war.

    After Wang Can received the order, he immediately wrote and wrote thousands of words, describing the tragic defeat of Cao Cao's army and praising the Yangzhou army.

    The meeting is over and the paperwork is completed.

    Wang Can originally wanted to be an envoy, but Liu Ke refused.

    "Just send an unknown soldier to Sun Ce's camp." Liu Kedao did not pay attention to the etiquette of envoys at all.

    Zhang Zhao still wanted to speak, but was stopped by Guo Jia.

    "Our army has the upper hand, which will definitely frighten Sun Cejun."

    The relationship between the two parties is not equal, so don¡¯t worry about it.

    Zhang Zhao didn¡¯t care.

    Therefore, the documents were quickly sent to Nanhai.

    Sun Ce took it apart and took a look, bursting into laughter.

    "If the Yangzhou Army really has 300,000 troops, I will turn around and leave."

    After saying that, he handed the document to Zhou Yu.

    Zhou Yu studied it carefully and lamented that the literary talent was soaring and there were so many talented people under the command of Dongyang Hou.

    "There is no 300,000, but there is still 200,000." Zhou Yu reasoned.

    The implication is that even with 200,000 we can¡¯t defeat him!

    ¡°It seems like we are back to that night again.¡± Sun Ce recalled.

    There were so many nights together that Zhou Yu really couldn¡¯t remember, so he asked: ¡°Which one?¡±

    "Father decided to fight the Marquis of Dongyang, and you traveled thousands of miles to come to my aid." Sun Ce said.

    This is not a good sign.

    Zhou Yu couldn¡¯t help but recall every detail from the beginning, which he found quite interesting.  When I was young, I had no worries and could do whatever I wanted.

    "Bo Fu, you are the coach now!" Zhou Yu reminded.

    "Is there any difference?" Sun Ce didn't know why.

    "Of course it's different. In that battle, Lord Sun Jian was the commander-in-chief. All you have to do is obey the orders and fight well. Even if you die in battle, what does it matter? It's different now. You will decide the life and death of everyone in our army." Zhou Yu said.

    "As expectedis it different?" Sun Ce's eyes were dull.

    In the past few days, he has been feeling that something is wrong. NowFinally understood.  It was the same decisive battle with Dongyang Hou, but the pressure on his heart was definitely different.

    "How about you be the coach and I be your vanguard?" Sun Ce said.

    Zhou Yu didn¡¯t know what to say.

    "No, I still have to bear the blame." Sun Ce suddenly understood something.  He had already made a decision, but let Zhou Yu take the blame. How could this work?

    Zhou Yu certainly doesn't care about this. What he cares about is Sun Ce's decision and determination.  Sun Ce's words revealed the aura of a decisive battle, which was contrary to Zhou Yu's wishes at the moment.

    "We are not ready, Bo Fu." Zhou Yu said softly.

    Sun Ce was silent. Isn¡¯t it the best opportunity to attack Yangzhou with a million troops?

    Continue to wait until when.

    Perhaps, Dongyang Hou is really undefeated.

    At this moment, Sun Ce felt a little sad.

    "Gongjin, is this what you mean?"

    "Yes, as your best friend, I don't want you to take risks, but as your military advisor, I cannot let you lose." Zhou Yu said.

    "But, I think I will win." Sun Ce vowed.

    "No, you will lose." Zhou Yu said with the same certainty.

    Sun Ce suddenly felt a little lonely. Didn't even his best friend support him?

    "Bo Fu, listen to me, okay?" Zhou Yu said affectionately, "The South China Sea has worn down the will of our army. And the Marquis of Dongyang came with the general trend and made a judgment."

    This sentence is very true, but Sun Ce finds it difficult to accept it.

    It¡¯s the South China Sea again.

    Sun Ce thought of Zhao Yun. That guy must be very proud now because he has a backing.  His backstage was coming to help him, but Sun Ce's backstage was only himself.

    There is also a father who has died in the war.

    That day was truly unforgettable.

    Every time I think about it, Sun Ce feels like he is bathing in the pouring rain. In fact, it didn¡¯t rain that day.

    ?Perhaps, this is fate.

    "I feel very complicated right now, I don't know what to say." Sun Ce said.

    Zhou Yu also knew that he had hurt Sun Ce's self-esteem.  But a person's self-esteem is insignificant in the face of the general trend.

    If Jingzhou loses all its 200,000 troops, it will be a fate waiting for death.

    Even if we win, we will only get one-third of the land in Jiaozhou, which is not cost-effective at all.

    When the risks were not proportional to the benefits, Zhou Yu chose to retreat rationally, so he advised Sun Ce to retreat.

    But for Sun Ce, who was ready for a decisive battle, it was like a wake-up call.

    Sun Ce was hit hard on the forehead and felt extremely uncomfortable.

    "I don't accept it, why should I listen to you!" Sun Ce said.

    It¡¯s like a child who has been deprived of his candied haws of sugar

    Zhou Yu also felt very sad. Who said he was a dog-headed strategist?

    If he is wrong, it is also Sun Ce's fault, so he must be promoted.

    In fact, Zhou Yu was also hesitating. If he no longer had the determination to forge ahead, could Sun Cejun still achieve such a record in the future?  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
