Luo Shiji of Dogi Province felt the recent changes. Gyeonggi Province kept coming to Gyeonggi Province that the Northern Territory had been releasing troops to increase their troops and was preparing to move south. Yuan Zhang from Henan Province gradually began to withdraw the troops scattered everywhere, but he was still calm. He believed that with Zhou Bofu and Pan Feng, and with the troops supported by Jiazhou, relying on the fortifications built during this period, he could definitely block the attacks of the Northern Territory on both sides.

"Let's just let these Beiliu hit the head in Duji Road and get bloody!" Luo Shiji said proudly. Without those civil servants to drag him down, he is definitely confident that he can complete this important task with his own ability.

"I'm afraid they don't dare to come, so I'll kill as much as they come!" Zhou Bofu and Pan Feng looked at each other and laughed. There were few wars during this period, so they had already been so suffocated. Now, I heard that a large army was heading south, and I was already happy.

Luo Shiji hoped that the enemy would come here early, but in the Yue Palace in the east of Jiangnan Road, Zheng Feihuang and others were worried. "Have you found out clearly? Are you really coming to us? Not going north to attack Henan Road?" They were arrogant and had no ability to fight with Li You, so they could only hope for these things.

"If you attack Henan Road, there is no need to go to Qiantang. Besides, Qian Hua led his army to sea to sweep pirates many times before. Isn't it just to train the navy?" Zheng Feihuang frowned. When he thought of the news that the spies had brought back, he felt his scalp numb. Can they really stop such a fleet?

"I had long said that day, we should take advantage of the time when Qian Hua's navy was not yet completed and set sail north to attack Qiantang and burn their warships. If you don't listen, we may have to wait here to die." Yan Zhenquan complained.

"If it had been attacked Qiantang, the Jiangnan East Road would have been decayed now!" Wang Wufeng retorted. Of course, they had the strength to destroy Qian Hua's unformed naval troop, but they angered Li You and they would not have any way to resist. After all, these people were from a maritime merchant. After all, they could not bear the consequences of destroying Qian Hua's naval troop, so they had to give up and pray that Li You would temporarily give up the plan to attack Jiangnan East Road for other reasons.

Of course, they did not have any countermeasures. When Qian Hua led the navy to sea to wipe out the pirates, they had sent their ships and capable men to pretend to be pirates to help, hoping to severely damage Qian Hua's navy and thus gain more buffering time. Unfortunately, those good men who had been scattered across the sea for many years fell under the artillery fire of the treasure ship. Even if they escaped the attack of the artillery fire and rushed to the vicinity of the treasure ship, they had no choice but to use the towering treasure ships. Those good men who jumped to the gang could not climb up at all, and could only be killed by the soldiers on the treasure ship one by one with crossbows.

"We discussed the decision not to attack Qiantang at the beginning. What's the use of talking about these now? I'd better think of a way to deal with it?" Zheng Feihuang made a smooth move. They knew the importance of the officials who were still fighting until the end of their lives, and they all put aside the dispute and discussed countermeasures.

"Now the navy still has hundreds of ships and more than 20,000 soldiers. I wonder if it can beat Qian Hua's navy?" Yan Zhenquan looked bitter, and he didn't seem to have much confidence.

"The ships that went to sea for the previous few times have not come back. The sailors have long been suspicious. If Qian Hua's navy approaches, many people will flee before the battle." Wang Wufeng is also not optimistic about the result of this battle. "These ships we are now probably unable to stop Qian Hua. Why not ask the island barbarians of the East China Sea to ask their fleet to rush for a while. When they and Qian Hua both suffer, we will reap the benefits of the fisherman?"

"These short guys are afraid that the lions will speak loudly again." Zheng Feihuang said disdainfully, "What's more, their ships are even more worn than ours, and how long can they hold Qian Hua back?"

"You can earn it again when the money is gone, but if the navy is finished, we will be all over!" Wang Wufeng's family has a wealth of tens of millions, but he is not a stingy person. He is more generous than anyone when it is time to pay. "Although they can't beat Qian Hua, they can consume some Qian Hua's arrows, gunpowder is always better than ours to die."

Although the spies from the East Jiangnan Road could not detect the treasure ship and the method of making cannons, they could still do it if they were asked a little bit of fur. Therefore, Zheng Feihuang, Wang Wufeng and others already knew that the roar of the past was the cannons on Qian Hua's ship fired shells with gunpowder. They also found many craftsmen to study, but unfortunately, they ruined many lives and had not made much progress.

"That's better than doing nothing here." Zheng Feihuang nodded in agreement. He quickly calculated the cost of this move. "If you want to send more than half of the navy in the East China Sea Island Barracks to dispatch more than half of the navy, you must get ten ships of silk, twenty ships of tea and porcelain. I will spend 40% of these expenses."

"There are 30% of them to be counted as mine." Wang Wufeng followed closely, and King Yue was just a cover. The power and wealth of the Jiangnan East Road were still in the hands of these maritime merchants. Although they are now paying money from their own pockets, as long as they can win this battle, the expenses can be made several times, and dozens of times.

"I will pay 20% of the rest, and let the small merchants share the rest. They can't just leave it at all." Yan Zhenquan also recognized some of them. They knew the amount of their wealth, and they could not hide it from others.

"Okay, what I always think about in business is not what to do if I make money, but how to recover if I lose money. Now that the war is ready, we should also discuss what will happen if I lose." The matter of spending money to invite the island barbarians of the East China Sea has been decided. Naturally, someone will prepare the goods and contact the island barbarians. Zheng Feihuang discussed another matter.

"If the sea is defeated, even if the land is stubborn, it will not last long." The profits of maritime trade are high and the risks are high, so they are all used to planning the worst.

"Yes, instead of fighting with Jiazhou Bo and defeating the Jiangnan East Road to a terrible situation, it is better to surrender early to preserve this prosperity. Jiazhou Bo is not a cruel and easy-to-kill person. Perhaps as long as we sacrifice the King of Yue, we can still maintain this family business, right?" Although Wang Wufeng also began to consider surrender before the war, it was very different from the officials in the former Great Wei capital.
