"Wen He, I will seriously consider what you've said."
"However, before Bai Feng left, he told me that he hoped that we wouldn't mobilize our troops for the time being."
"Otherwise, his situation will become even more dangerous."
Cao Cao rubbed his chin and said in a low voice.
Jia Xu was a little confused when he heard this.
Why was that?
Why would sending troops to help him relieve his pressure only to put Bai Feng in more danger?
Even Jia Xu couldn't figure out the reason behind this.
"In that case, we'd better wait and see."
"If it's Mr. Bai, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Xiahou Dun said in a low voice.
They didn't expect that Bai Feng didn't want Cao Cao to send troops because he wanted to use the Shanyue to expand his power.
However, he couldn't tell Cao Cao about this.
No matter how much Cao Cao trusted him, he couldn't tell him.
Moreover, Bai Feng told Cao Cao that he was going to the Shanyue to gather intelligence and train his troops. He didn't say that he had to take over the Shanyue.
Even if he conquered Jiangdong in the future, the Shanyue's territory would still belong to Bai Feng.
If he won, given Cao Cao's personality, he would definitely chase after Sun Quan and Liu Bei, who were escaping to the south.
Or rather, he would deal with the foreign tribes in the north.
The possibility of him dealing with the Shanyue was very slim.
As long as he didn't go down the mountain to plunder and attract Cao Cao's attention, he wouldn't be discovered.
…
At the same time, outside Yuzhang …
"General, have you really made up your mind?"
The young general next to Tai Shici asked with a dark expression.
Tai Shici nodded heavily.
"I've had enough of being the Governor of Yuzhang. I've always been under Sun Quan's command. When will I stop?"
The young general nodded when he heard Tai Shici's words.
This young general had been following Taishi Ci since the beginning, and as someone who abhorred evil, he also found Sun Quan's actions extremely unpleasant to the eye.
Especially when he killed his own nephew with his own hands.
The reason behind this was to balance the power of the imperial court so that they wouldn't have any other ideas and would be at ease under his rule.
That was all. How could he kill his own brother's orphan?
This kind of person should be cut into pieces.
The most important thing is that his throne was passed down from Sun Ce!
"How many people in Yuzhang are willing to follow us?"
Tai Shici's face's expression's expression.
The young general's complexion immediately changed, and he said excitedly,
"General, I was just about to tell you the good news!"
"Yuzhang of the Shanyue's troops...........
Actually, this was within Taishi Ci's expectations.
Most of the fifty thousand soldiers were natives of Yuzhang.
There were two very important reasons why they wanted to join Yuzhang.
Firstly, these troops weren't very loyal to Sun Quan. In fact, they even detested him a little.
After all, Yuzhang had been plagued by the Shanyue for so many years, but Wu Hou didn't care at all.
Even if he were to send troops over, he would only send fifty thousand Gongzi soldiers who would only disrupt the order of Yuzhang.
It would be better if he didn't send them.
Secondly, no matter what the reason was, they were going to attack the Shanyue.
As long as they attacked the Shanyue, they would raise both hands in approval.
"However, we can't bring so many troops with us."
"Tell them to leave twenty thousand troops behind to defend Yuzhang. We can't let Yuzhang fall into Sun Quan's hands."
Tai Shici ordered.
The young general smiled faintly.
"General, don't worry. I understand."
"Most of their families are in Yuzhang. If Sun Quan finds out about this, he might use it to blackmail us."
"If that happens, not only will these fifty thousand troops not be able to accomplish anything, they might even ruin it."
Tai Shici laughed.
"I didn't expect you to have improved so much during this period. Go."
"Yes, sir!"
The young general hurriedly rode his horse to the barracks.
Tai Shici heaved a sigh of relief.
With the help of these fifty thousand troops, the attack on Shanyue would become much easier.
However, it was precisely because of this that he couldn't just hand Yuzhang over to Sun Quan.
If Sun Quan found out about his rebellion, given his personality, he might do something like that!
Even though he only left twenty thousand Gongzi soldiers behind, he could at least use them to confuse Sun Quan so that he wouldn't suspect Yuzhang.
The purpose of this expedition was to tell Sun Quan that they were going to destroy the Shanyue.
The fifty thousand Gongzi soldiers were unreliable to begin with. If they wanted to destroy the Shanyue, they had to rely on the regular army.
Sun Quan knew this very well.
Therefore, Sun Quan was very happy that Tai Shici was willing to volunteer to attack the Shanyue.
This proposal was quickly approved.
If everything went smoothly and Shanyue became their main camp, the twenty thousand Gongzi soldiers would be able to resist Sun Quan's invasion until reinforcements arrived.
In the end, as long as Shanyue and Yuzhang remained in a triangle, they would be able to resist the invasion of Jiangdong's army.
Bai Feng was the one who informed Tai Shici of this plan.
In short, there were only two words.
Reliable!
"General! General! "
"It's all arranged. The soldiers are very much in agreement with your plan. Twenty thousand of them are already stationed there and waiting for your arrival!"
The young general urged his horse back excitedly.
Tai Shici smiled.
"Good!"
"With these fifty thousand Gongzi soldiers, we'll definitely be able to help Mr. Bai!"
"By the way, what's the situation with Ling Tong?"
The young general smiled.
"Don't worry, General. I don't know why, but the Shanyue's attacks are getting fiercer and fiercer. Ling Tong has no time to deal with them."
"I estimate that in half a month, Ling Tong's army will be completely defeated!"
"However, I'm just worried that the Shanyue's attacks are so fierce now. I'm afraid that after we meet up with Mr. Bai …"
"What if they invade Yuzhang?"
"When that happens, Yuzhang will only have twenty thousand men. How will it defend the city?"
Tai Shici smiled.
"That's why we have to meet up with Mr. Bai as soon as possible and help Mr. Bai.
”
"With our help, Mister White will be able to charge straight in and kill the leader of the Shanyue Faction!"
"If that's the case, wouldn't the problem be solved?"
The young general smiled when he heard Tai Shici's words.
"Well said, General!"
"Then, shall we depart now?"
"The soldiers can't wait any longer!"
Tai Shici raised his arm and shouted.
"Alright!"
"Listen up, everyone. We'll depart immediately. Our destination is the Shanyue!"
"Remember, if you encounter any civilians along the way, give them some food to help them get back to Yuzhang!"
Bai Feng was the one who told Tai Shici about this.
Because there were too many civilians rescued, Bai Feng could not escort all of them back. That would affect the progress of the rescue.
More importantly, Bai Feng did not have a lot of food. There was no way he could share it with them.
