Looking at Sun Shuao who was crying, King Zhuang of Chu quickly stood up and supported him, saying, "Sir, you are in poor health, why bother to work hard for a traitor? I can confirm that Yang Youji betrays you!"

"Why did the king say that?" Sun Shuao was a little shocked.

King Zhuang of Chu said in a deep voice: "The guards of Hengshui, two of them escaped in disguise and told me in detail what happened in those days. Then Li Zhen was under the city wall for three consecutive days, making wine with Yangyouji, and talking to the two armies in front of the two armies, and they talked for at least an hour every day! As for what they talked about, no one knew, but after the first day, Yangyouji, who had not closed his eyes for three days, returned to the city and said that he could sleep. It seemed that Yangyouji and the Kingdom of Heaven reached some agreement so that the Kingdom of Heaven would no longer harass Hengshui City that day!"

"This matter is absolutely impossible!" Sun Shuao analyzed: "If Yang Youji betrayed the king, how could he stay in Hengshui City? Moreover, Yang Youji wrote a letter to the king in righteousness. The king should know Yang Youji's character, and this person would never be easily betrayed! However, now that the king has destroyed the three tribes of Yang Youji, this is forcing him to betray him!"

"Sir, Yang Youji has already rebelled from Chu State, so there is no need to make any comments on him!" King Zhuang of Chu personally helped Sun Shuao sit down and rest, and said, "Now, Yang Youji betrayed and Tang Ji died in battle. No one under Gu's command is available. Please take care of yourself, help Gu guard Jiangling together, defeat the bandit Li Zhen, and restore the mountains and rivers of Chu State!"

Sun Shuao sighed after hearing this, and seemed exhausted.

Soon, someone said that King Wu was here.

King Zhuang quickly invited him, and Sun Shuao thought about it and chose to say goodbye.

After the defeat of Hengyang County, King Zhuang of Chu made Sun Shuao feel a little unfamiliar.

When I was with King Zhuang in the past, King Zhuang was a very kind, ambitious and able tolerate people and things.

But now, King Zhuang seems to have become much more extreme in character.

If it were in the past, how could King Zhuang kill his beloved relatives so easily?

Moreover, it was too easy for King Zhuang to distrust Yang Youji.

Sun Shuao knew that this was the change in character of King Zhuang after Mian** was defeated.

The former King Zhuang was smooth sailing, and he had never experienced any setbacks. He never suffered a defeat when he attacked Jingnan. However, after losing once, King Zhuang began to be stubborn and doubt everything.

Sun Shuao was also helpless about this.

At the same time, there is no hope for the battle of Jiangling Prefecture.

King Zhuang has changed, King Wu is not capable enough... Looking at the entire Chu State's vassal kings, there are very few who are talented and stubborn and can compete with King Zhuang. Now even King Zhuang is not good enough, so who is okay?

Could it be the King of Becoming a King?

Or, the mourning king?

Sun Shuao shook his head, and his condition worsened a little after he went back.

At the third update in the middle of the night, war finally started in Dangyang County.

The person in charge of the main attack was the Zuo Xiangyang Legion led by the mysterious Dao Ge. Five million troops surrounded Dangyang County.

Li Zhen didn't even care about the siege, because at this time, Jingnan Kingdom sent Gao Dongsheng to meet him. Li Zhen, as the monarch, met Gao Dongsheng in his camp.

"Your Majesty, the outside minister comes to ask questions according to the order of the king!" Gao Dongsheng said his intention after paying homage to Li Zhen.

Li Zhen said: "Ask!"

Gao Dongsheng changed his appearance, as if imitating Gao Jixing's expression, and said, "Father, son minister and the entire Jingnan people have thanked him for his gifts and returned Nanjun to Jingnan. I am here to wish my father a lifetime! In addition, the father has worked hard to destroy the Chu State, and the son minister is worried. I don't know if there is any way to share the worries of the father?"

Li Zhen held back his smile. Gao Jixing was really able to bend and stretch to a certain level. He shouted so smoothly that he really planned to hold on to the thigh of the Heavenly Kingdom.

After thinking about it, Li Zhen said, "Now the military rations ahead are not sufficient. If you really want to share my worries, you can recruit civilians and send some military rations!"

"Uh, this..." Gao Dongsheng said apologetically: "Report to Your Majesty that our country is not sufficient at present, and I'm afraid we can only send three days of military rations."

"Three days are three days!" Li Zhen was not picky, let alone that it could maintain a six million army for three days. The military rations were at least 600,000, which was really a lot, so Li Zhen said: "You can handle this matter quickly! In addition, when you go back, tell Gao Jixing, you will say that I plan to build a high platform outside Jiangling City tomorrow, and let him come to see me at that time, and accompany me to experience the scenery of the top ten famous cities!"

"Uh, is this a bit inconsistent with etiquette?" Gao Dongsheng asked.

"My order is etiquette!" Li Zhen said with a cold face: "Help you take back Nanjun, you only used a few cities in Xiangyangjun to replace them? Now, I want your Majesty to bring 300,000 armor to Jiangling City. Do you refuse?"

"I dare not, I will go back now and tell my country your Majesty!" Gao Dongsheng quickly agreed and left.

After Gao Dongsheng left, Guo Jia, Zhang Liang, Sun Wu, Bai Qi and others entered the camp one after another.

Guo Jia said: "Jingnan only wants to be in peace in one corner and guard Jingzhou and Nanjun. At this time, we don't have to touch them. After all, the master is now named Wuming, and then I am afraid that other countries will think that we are a country of tigers and wolves. For the sake of territory, we can even ignore morality!"

"Who said I plan to touch him, Gao Jixing?" Li Zhen smiled.

There are times when Guo Jia misreads people?

Guo Jia smiled and said, "I thought your majesty would kill 300,000 soldiers in Jingnan tomorrow, detain Gao Jixing, and then take advantage of the situation to take down Jingnan in one fell swoop!"

"Fengxiao is clearly giving advice!" Zhang Liang saw what Guo Jia meant.

Guo Jia really misread the person, and he misread Li Zhen?

Of course not!

Guo Jia deliberately reminded Li Zhen that if he wanted to take over Jingnan Kingdom, this would be an opportunity.

But doing so actually has its disadvantages.

Because if the Kingdom of Heaven really takes advantage of such an opportunity to take action, it will definitely arouse the disgust of other countries. Then, when other countries face the Kingdom of Heaven, they will consider the capriciousness of the Kingdom of Heaven, and it will be even more difficult to negotiate with them.

"Is there any way to make things famous?" Li Zhen asked.

"Your Majesty, do you really want to plot against Jingnan?" Zhang Liang looked over.

Li Zhen smiled and said, "If you have a chance, why not? Take Jingnan, then my heavenly kingdom, Nanyang, Xiangyang, Zuo Xiangyang, Hengyang, plus Jingzhou and Nanjun, and take the left and right Hengyang, occupying most of Jingzhou. The land area and power will be included in the top ten."

"But in this way, the Han, Qin, Tang and other countries will begin to feel that we are threatening!" Zhang Liang shook his head and persuaded: "Your Majesty, you should destroy the Chu State first, and then let the Shu Han invade the Central Plains. At that time, your Majesty will unify Jingzhou and even take advantage of the situation to advance eastward!"

Go eastward?

Li Zhen is interested.
