"What's going on?" Sun Jian frowned, and there were many civil and military officials standing under the hall. Cao Cao was on par with Sun Jian.

Pang Tong guessed with uncertainty: "Not long ago, the major general led 100,000 elite troops to Zengzhou, and then the Qin army embarked on such a large-scale mobilization. There is a very likely relationship between the two!"

Sun Jian nodded with a thoughtful look on his face. "Lord, now is not the time to discuss why the Qin Dynasty mobilized its troops, but should discuss how to deal with the current situation!" Zhang Zhao clasped his fists with a worried look on his face. The civil officials on the side immediately agreed.

Sun Jian glanced at Zhang Zhao and asked, "What does that Zibu thinks should be done?"

Zhang Zhao, Cao, and Sun Jian, and the civil and military officials clasped their fists and said, "Lord, my colleagues, the current situation is very obvious. The millions of elite Qin soldiers are about to launch a fierce attack on our Jiangdong. The Qin army is an elite of a hundred battles, and even the fierce Xianbei and Xiongnu people are willing to be their hawks and dogs. Although our army has 600,000, its combat power is far inferior to that of the Qin army, and it is impossible to win! ~~~" Zhang Zhao hurriedly walked to Sun Jian, clasped his fists, and advised solemnly: "It is better to turn Jiangdong into a ruin in the fire of war~" "Stop talking!!" Huang Gai on the side couldn't listen and shouted.

Huang Gai pointed at Zhang Zhao's nose and cursed: "You coward who 'rejuvenates others' ambitions and destroys your own power'! Don't shake the morale of the army here and confuse the public!"

Zhang Zhao ignored Huang Gai and clasped his fists at Sun Jian with an anxious look on his face and said, "Lord, what Zhao said is absolutely selfless! Please think twice!"

Sun Jian stopped Huang Gai who was about to scold again and said to Zhang Zhao in harmony: "What Zibu said is from the heart, how can I not know!" Then he turned his head and smiled at the angry Huang Gai, "Don't be anxious for refusal!" Sun Jian's expression was aloof, he glanced at everyone in the hall, and said loudly: "We are the ministers of the Han Dynasty and shoulder the responsibility of supporting the Han Dynasty. How can we be discouraged because of the predicament in front of us? Moreover, although the Qin army is strong, it is not impeccable!" He turned his head and looked at Pang Tong, signaling Pang Tong to continue speaking.

Pang Tong understood and stood up and said, "What the lord said is very true! The Qin army is indeed unparalleled in the world, but its navy is not able to catch it. Our Jiangdong navy has repeatedly defeated the Qin army on the waters. In addition, the food and grass of the Qin army have always been a big problem. According to information, this time, the Qin army borrowed food from the ** to raise food and grass, which has caused dissatisfaction among many people! As long as our army withstands the first wave of offensives of the Qin army, we can achieve the final victory!"

After listening to Pang Tong's analysis, the civil servants who were originally nervous couldn't help but feel much more relieved, but many people were still uneasy.

"Chen Chu is not a reckless person. It is obviously not the time to launch a large-scale military service. Why did he do this?" Sun Jian looked at Cao Cao next to him with a puzzled look on his face.

Cao Cao laughed and said, "For such a big military operation, Chen Chu will definitely send an envoy. At that time, will you know what Chen Chu wants to do?"

Sun Jian nodded thoughtfully. At this moment, a personal soldier rushed into the hall.

"Lord, the envoy of the Great Qin Dynasty asked for a visit!"

Cao Cao and Sun Jian looked at each other, and Sun Jian couldn't help but smile and said, "It was such a coincidence!" He said to his personal soldiers: "Please!" "Yes!"

A moment later, Chen Chu's envoy led by his personal soldiers to the main hall.

The envoy held his fist and bowed to Sun Jian, took out a letter from his arms, and sang: "This is the letter written by His Majesty of Great Qin. Please check it out!"

Sun Jian signaled a personal soldier next to him to take it. The personal soldier took the letter from the envoy and turned around to present it to Sun Jian.

Sun Jian glanced at the messenger below with a calm expression, opened the letter, looked carefully, and frowned tightly. He looked at the messenger below and said in a deep voice: "It was because of this that Chen Chu made a big fight!"

The envoy clasped his fists at Sun Jian and sang loudly: "My Majesty of Qin hopes that the general will cancel this marriage! As long as the general cancels the marriage, your Majesty is willing to not invade Jiangdong within three years!"

Sun Jian couldn't help but acted, but was worried that Chen Chu was using fraud. "Wen Shi, what did Chen Chu say in the letter?" Cao Cao, who was standing beside him, couldn't help asking.

Only then did Sun Jian realize that Cao Cao was right next to him, and he thought quickly in his mind, handed the letter in his hand to Cao Cao, and said with a sarcastic look: "Chen Chu made an inexplicable request! He really treated me as a fool!"

Cao Cao read the letter and frowned and said, "Chen Chu's request is really strange! However, the literary station may wish to consider it!"

Sun Jian thought for a moment and said calmly to the messenger below: "You go back and tell Chen Chu that he doesn't need to ask about my family affairs. If he wants to use any conspiracy, just let the horse come over!"

The messenger frowned and clasped his fists and said, "Since that's the case, I'll take it back!"

"Come, see off guests!"

Two personal soldiers came up immediately and invited the envoy out.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Zhao couldn't help but feel anxious and came out and said anxiously: "Lord, ~~"

Sun Jian interrupted Zhang Zhao and said decisively: "I have decided! Zibu doesn't need to persuade him anymore!"

After the meeting, Sun Jian and Cao Cao came to the backyard together, and Pang Tong followed Sun Jian. Sun Jian asked with a puzzled look: "What trick Chen Chu is playing, how could he make such an inexplicable request?"

Cao Cao frowned and thought, "Chen Chu might have made such a request because he had a special liking for Miss Sun, and he would even have the action of gathering a million troops this time!"

"How could Chen Chu be the founding king of the pseudo-Qin. His civil and military skills are only higher than those of you and me. How could he use his arbitrary weapons because of his love for his children!"

Cao Cao laughed and said, "What Wentai said is reasonable! However, the truth of the matter is often unexpected!"

"General Cao said very well!" Pang Tong, who was standing beside him, agreed.

Sun Jian glanced at the two of them and frowned and asked, "Can you two actually ask me to accept Chen Chu's request?"

Cao Cao laughed and said, "This is not bad!" After a pause, he said with a serious look: "Chen Chu made this request. Regardless of his true thoughts, our subjects and soldiers would think that Chen Chu launched this war because of the marriage of Miss Sun and Ang'er. I think few people are willing to confront the Qin army for this matter!"

Sun Jian frowned and asked, "Meng De is saying that Chen Chu is using psychological tactics."

Cao Cao smiled and asked, "Does the Wentai think this is not possible?"

Sun Jian thought for a moment, but shook his head and said, "No, I don't accept Chen Chu's threat!"

Cao Cao and Pang Tong were stunned. Cao Cao said, "The Wentai is definitely not a person who acts in a voluntary manner. I think the Wentai must have its own considerations!"

Sun Jian nodded and analyzed: "In fact, the later the war between us and the Qin army is the more unfavorable we are! The Qin army is now building ships at the mouth of Hongze Lake and Sishui River. The Qin army's production capacity is far superior to ours. Gan Ning, who is well versed in water war, trains the naval army for Chen Chu in Chaohu. In time, the advantage of our naval army will no longer exist. At that time, the situation our army faces will be a real comprehensive attack! Although my Sun Yat-sen regards himself as a hero, it is difficult to deal with such a situation!"

Cao Cao, Pang Tong had already understood what Sun Jian meant. Cao Cao nodded and said, "So the Wentai planned to either use this matter to slapped Chen Chu's spirit, or force Chen Chu to fight me in a prepared situation!"

"Yes, if God bless me, Sun Jian, the general trend might be reversed!" Sun Jian said with a bright look.

"Since that's the case, I will do my best to help Wentai!" Cao Cao said decisively.

"Thank you!" Sun Jian clasped his fists at Cao Cao, looking grateful.

Sun Jian's order was quickly passed to the various armies in Jiangdong, and the troops of each army began to gather in Changsha. Because Sun Jian and Cao Cao both believed that Chen Chu's main attack direction this time must be Jiaozhou in the west; Cao Cao's army in Jiangdu was also preparing for war, and they would raid Yangzhou at the right time to restrain the Qin army in the front.

During this period, the backyard of the Changsha governor's mansion was also busy. The servants were busy decorating the lights and the maids were busy decorating the backyard, and there were endless people coming to send gifts.

Sun Ren sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself who looked a little haggard in the bronze mirror, her heart was filled with bitterness. The door of the room sounded softly, and Sun Ren knew who was coming. "Mother." Sun Ren called softly.

Sun Ren's mother came behind Sun Ren and looked at the face of the character in the bronze mirror that made her infinitely proud.
