Zhao Er showed his big face this time. Nearly 400 ships were enough to transport tens of thousands of people to Jiangnan at one time. Chai Rong was unwilling to fight in Jiangnan because water war was the weakness of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the gap in the ship was even larger. Moreover, ships were easy to build, but experienced sailors were difficult to recruit.

Chai Rong calculated that it would take five years at the earliest to pull the navy up.

In the past five years, he had wiped out Jingchu, destroyed the Southern Tang, and even the Later Shu and Southern Han might have settled... But even he did not expect that good things would be one after another, conquered Ren Tianxing, and turned so many ships in, crossing the river to fight, and there would be no worries!

Chai Rong announced a celebration of wine, one was to break through Rugao, and the other was that the navy had a settlement. This was called the Double Happiness. When Suzhou was saved, it was the Three Happiness. Then, it would be a big celebration!

His Majesty the Emperor has always been like this, he will only make decisions and ignore the difficulties of the following matters. Anyway, someone will help him deal with them.

"Master, these sailors include soldiers from Wuyue, hired by merchants, messy things. Some people are still thinking about Wuyue, some want to escape back to Hangzhou, and perhaps some people are going to surrender to the Southern Tang Dynasty. It's completely a mess and can't be used!"

Ye Hua's head was so big, "It's so hard for you, I've got them back!"

Zhao Er shrank his neck and said luckily: "Thanks to Ren Tianxing, otherwise they would have to run away."

Ye Hua nodded, "Okay, the most urgent task now is to make these people loyal to the Great Zhou as soon as possible, and not ask them to serve the country wholeheartedly, but to be able to obey the orders."

Zhao Er immediately said: "Master, is it a high official who has a good salary, or a severe punishment or a serious law? Or are there both?"

Ye Hua smiled and shook his head, "Not all, I'm setting an example! You go and prepare some old Shaoxing wine, by the way, there are dried plums, which are the favorites of the people of Liangzhe. I'll invite all the sailors and soldiers to dinner tonight!"

...

After Wei Renpu arrived in Suzhou, he did not take the initiative to do anything except promised to maintain the stability of the currency value. Usually, people from the Chamber of Commerce found him, so Lao Wei came forward to help.

When encountering the situation, Wei Renpu only made suggestions and never acted domineeringly.

The low attitude of Xianggong Wei made the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce very helpful.

After stabilizing the currency, the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce borrowed a sum of money from Suzhou Bank, recruited young and strong men and stepped up training, and obtained a total of 30,000 infantrymen.

In addition, the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce has gathered more than 100 merchant ships to form a navy.

As the weapons of the Great Zhou arrived one after another, these infantrymen were armed.

The only problem is the lack of war horses. Jiangnan lacks tall war horses. Even if there are, they are all in the formal army, and Su Shang can't get any money.

They could only collect some horses, mules, and donkeys for military purposes.

"General Yang, what do you think of Suzhou's troops? Do you have the power to fight?"

Old Wei was left alone on the surface, but he did not dare to be careless in secret. He took the time to call Yang Chongxun over and asked about the situation. Over the past few years, Yang Chongxun has also matured a lot. He has grown up black beards, short and shiny, like a young general, very majestic.

He bowed and said, "Grandpa Wei, I thought Jiangnan was weak and thin, and could only study and do business, and could not fight on the battlefield... However, after this period of training, the last general found that there were many heroes and warriors in Jiangnan. However, the time was too hasty. How could a military fight in a month or two? The last general only trained them to guard the city and protect their homes. Fortunately, five days ago, a batch of bed crossbows were transported, with 300 crossbows. The last general was arranged at the top of the city. If the troops from Nan Tang and Wu Yue came together, they might still have the power to fight."

Wei Renpu stared at the map in front of him. As the leader who followed Guo Wei's battle, Wei Renpu was also among the best in the Great Zhou Dynasty in military attainments. The people said it well that if there was no diamond, don't take the job of porcelain. If Old Wei had not been confident enough, he would not have taken the initiative to go to Jiangnan.

"General Yang, you might as well follow me to sort out the past during this period of time and figure out the whole story, and then you will have a general idea in your mind."

Old Wei frowned and said seriously... When he first came, Wu Yue took the power of the Great Zhou Dynasty and did not dare to send troops. At that time, the Southern Tang did not attack with all his might. He just competed on the river and retreated in a hurry.

Li Hongji wanted to fight against the Great Zhou. Will he not dare to attack Suzhou because he was afraid of the Great Zhou?

The experienced Wei Renpu quickly saw through Li Hongji's thoughts. First of all, Suzhou was still the territory of Wu Yue. Li Hongji did not coordinate with Wu Yue, so it was not convenient to attack Suzhou rashly, so as not to arouse suspicion from the two countries and ruin the overall situation of cooperation in confronting the Great Zhou.

Moreover, Suzhou is hanging alone south of the Yangtze River, easy to attack and difficult to defend.

The prime minister of the Great Zhou came to Suzhou and did a good job. He was inserting a knife in Jiangnan. If he couldn't do it well, he was giving hostages to others!

Li Hongji's abacus is smarter than anyone else.

Ask yourself, can he beat Dazhou?

It's very difficult, very difficult!

According to Li Hongji's idea, it would be great if he could delay time or draw. If both sides really draw or suffer a small loss, Suzhou would be a bargaining chip for exchange, so he did not take action rashly.

But the problem is that as the situation becomes more and more serious, there are wars everywhere in Jiangbei, Chai Rong is in charge, and Li Hongji dare not be lucky, so he can only do his best.

At this time, the forces of the pro-Southern Tang faction in Wu and Yue also gained the upper hand, so a hundred thousand Wu and Yue army attacked Suzhou, and Li Hongji made every effort to reinforce Yangzhou.

But the problem is that Wu Yue Kingdom is very chaotic, the army has no fighting spirit, and set off from Hangzhou, half a month, and has just passed Xiuzhou, and is half a distance from Suzhou!

The soldiers are so fast that they will be as cold as they do.

Moreover, Wu Yue's troops were stuck in the process, and it was likely that the country was still hesitating. If they turned to the Great Zhou, it would be a bad thing.

After getting a pig teammate, no one could do anything. Li Hongji could only urgently transfer 50,000 people and 200 warships to take the initiative to attack, solve Suzhou first, and take the lead in getting Wu Yue first.

...

The situation in Jiangnan can be said to have three changes in a day, which is becoming increasingly unfavorable for Suzhou.

There are 100,000 troops from Wu and Yue in the southeast, 50,000 troops from the south Tang in the west, and the Yangtze River in the north is facing blockade. It is really surrounded by enemies and strong troops are approaching!

Old Wei hugged his head in pain, "There are not many soldiers but the elite, not to mention that there are not many people in Suzhou at all! This battle is probably a lot of danger."

As a soldier, Yang Chongxun was unwilling to admit his failure, but he was still responsible for the safety of Xianggong Wei, so he had to be cautious.

"It is a great kindness for me to be in danger and to be able to visit Suzhou. The situation is already very critical at this moment. Please turn back to the Great Zhou immediately."

Old Wei raised his head and asked softly: "I am leaving, what should I do in Suzhou?"

"I will do my best. Even if there are many people in Southern Tang, I will bite a piece of meat!" The surname Yang has no cords. Yang Chongxun is deliberately fighting to the death!

Old Wei hesitated for a while, shook his head and said, "No, if I leave, Suzhou will be in chaos. If you don't say anything else, the coins issued by Suzhou Bank will become worthless. If the currency collapses, Suzhou will be over!"

Over the past period, Wei Renpu's financial level has also improved rapidly.

The merchants in Suzhou dared to fight against two countries, and their greatest courage came from the Great Zhou. Now Wei Renpu is the representative of the Great Zhou. If he leaves, it means that his backer is gone and his confidence collapses, and the entire Suzhou will surrender without fighting.

"If it doesn't work, it's absolutely not. Suzhou can't afford to lose it!"

Wei Renpu thought for a long time and suddenly stood up, "General Yang, follow me to the top of the city."

"ah!"

Yang Chongxun looked outside and it was already late. "Grandpa Wei, why don't you talk about it tomorrow?"

"It's now!" Old Wei was particularly firm. He left as soon as he said he could leave. Yang Chongxun followed behind. They headed straight to the city wall. Due to the strict curfew, it was dark and there were no idle people in the street market.

There was almost no obstacle, and he arrived under the city wall. Suddenly, Yang Chongxun discovered that a group of people were concentrating on the city gate - gambling!

"absurd!"

Yang Chongxun was furious and wanted to enforce military laws.

Wei Renpu waved his hand and whispered: "Pay attention to identity!"

Of course, Yang Chongxun knew that he was just here to help with training, not the main general, but seeing the soldier so incompetent, he was always angry. He was so angry that he kept grabbing his sword, but Old Wei walked up quickly, picked up a gun from the corner, and suddenly pressed it on the back of a soldier.

"Don't move!"

The soldier who was gambling was so scared that his muscles were tense. The others also turned around and found an old man holding a gun and smiling at them.

"Brothers, have fun?"

"You, who are you? Why do you scare me?" The soldier who was pushed stretched his neck and asked dissatisfiedly. The companion next to him rubbed his eyes and suddenly exclaimed, "Yes, it's Mr. Wei!"

"Meet the Lord Wei!"

Hum, many people knelt on one knee together and lowered their heads in shame.

Lao Wei didn't say anything, but went to the gambling table, waved it hard, and retreated the dice and other items on it to the ground, then waved his hand, and someone sent him a pen and ink. Lao Wei pondered for a moment, and on this table, he picked up his pen and wrote a sincere memorial in front of everyone.

After writing, Wei Renpu sighed: "I heard that the gentry and merchants in Suzhou were in great Zhou and were angry. Therefore, I did not avoid swords and came to Jiangnan and were willing to live and die together with all my brothers and the people of the whole city. Even if I threw my life in Gusu City, I would not refuse!"

"This is a memorial written by me to the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If I unfortunately die in battle, please let Your Majesty know that I can bury me outside Suzhou City is my wish."

After Wei Renpu finished speaking, he took out the fire lacquer, sealed the memorial, and asked someone to take it, and immediately sent it to Dazhou. At this moment, there were still five days before Zhao Er returned to Jinghai!

From beginning to end, Lao Wei didn't say a word of blame, but the soldiers present were even more painful than being slapped by dozens of mouths. It hurt so much that it was so painful that it was pulled into the bones!

It hurts to the heart!

A prime minister of the Shangguo country, willing to take a chance, came to Suzhou, died in the city without hesitation, and was buried in Susu!

What kind of spirit is this?

"Grandpa Wei, we were wrong!"
