Han Fei's journey was not all smooth sailing. On the way, he also experienced assassinations from nets sent by the Qin State. Many forces that did not want the alliance to be established sent their own assassins.

It can be said that there was a narrow escape from death on the way, and Han Fei almost never came back. But fortunately, despite all the hardships, Han Fei still completed the mission.

As for Zhong Yu, when Han Fei finished his mission to Yan and Zhao, he had already bid farewell to the King of Han and returned to the Yu Kingdom, preparing to recruit a large army and join the coalition forces.

Today's Yuguo has conquered the two losers, the Xiongnu and the North.

And by accepting the two people's conditions of surrender, Yuguo can draw warriors from these two countries to join Yuguo's army and fight for Yuguo.

Just after returning to Yu Kingdom, before he had time to take a good rest, Zhong Yu issued an order to recruit an army.

100,000 troops have been concentrated across the country and military supplies have been prepared, and they will head to Zhao and South Korea in a few months.

The Huns in the north also gathered 100,000 troops to accompany them on the expedition. Moreover, the other two losers will also send 50,000 troops each to the south of the Xiongnu, that is, the northern border of Qin, to raid.

Inside the military camp, flags were fluttering, and layers of military tents stretched for more than ten miles.

"Your Majesty, the army going south has now been assembled. There are 100,000 people in total, all of whom are battle-hardened elites!" Next to Zhong Yu who was reviewing the army, Cao Cao, who had just returned from the expedition, said.

When he first came to this world, Zhong Yu only had 200,000 troops in his country, and his strength could be said to be extremely weak.

However, after more than two years of conquest, a group of new soldiers were recruited from within the royal kingdom, and some brave men were selected from the conquered tribes to join the army.

Now there are an additional 100,000 troops, and they are extremely brave and good at fighting. Their equipment has the accumulation of the imperial country. It can also be said to be extremely sophisticated. They are among the best among all the countries in the world.

But these are not the most important. The important thing is that although Zhong Yu's 50,000 direct troops were damaged in the previous battles, they quickly selected some more talented people to make up for it. .

Now the establishment of 50,000 people has been completed, and most of them have broken through to the second level, which is the third-rate realm in the world of Qin Dynasty.

Each of these troops has Zhong Yu's true energy in their body, which firmly controls the core of their power, and constantly confuses these soldiers, instilling the idea of loyalty to Zhong Yu subconsciously in their minds. .

After more than two years of bewitchment, it can be said that he has completely become Zhong Yu's puppet. If he didn't encounter Zhong Yu's orders, it would be fine, and he would still be a normal person with normal thinking.

But once they encounter something about Zhong Yu, they will be very concerned about it. If it is a good thing, they will just smile and not care too much.

But if someone wants to bribe them and do something bad, then they will have a terrible taste of Infernal Affairs.

"Well, very good. The 100,000-strong army has been assembled so quickly. It seems that the beloved ministers did not waste time on military and political affairs during the time they were leaving the country!" Zhong Yu nodded with satisfaction.

"It's all thanks to your majesty's great blessings. Our country is under your majesty's power. I dare not work together and work hard to serve your majesty!" Several officials around him looked at each other and complimented each other.

Smiling, Zhong Yu didn't really take these compliments seriously, but continued to look at the army under his command.

"Our purpose of sending troops south this time to compete with Qin is not to destroy Qin in one battle. That is unrealistic." As he walked on the road, Zhong Yu turned to the officials around him and said. "Our purpose is to use this opportunity of joining forces to conquer Qin to severely weaken the seven southern kingdoms, so that they will consume their resources in this confrontation and drag them into the quagmire of war, from which they cannot extricate themselves!"

"Then according to His Majesty, this war should be dragged on as long as it can, and the sooner it can be ended, the better?" Cao Cao, who returned to Beijing after debriefing, as the number one military person under Zhong Yu, quickly understood him. the meaning of.

"That's right. The most important thing about this war is not the result, but the delay. In this long war, the strength of the seven southern countries will be weakened, and our country can hide in the north and take this opportunity to recuperate. "Hearing Cao Cao's words, Zhong Yu nodded with satisfaction.

As expected of the Three Kingdoms world, Cao Cao was able to unify the entire north. As a very famous traitor in history, his strategic vision and tactical vision were extremely outstanding.

"How long will the war last? There must be a specific goal in order to make a series of plans around the goal!" Cao Cao continued to ask after hearing his Majesty's affirmation of his words.

"How long has it been since the age of a warrior to join the army is about sixteen years or above? Nowadays, our country has a shortage of young men, and most of them are women and children. This is why our country, a big country with a population of 6 million, can only recruit With 300,000 soldiers and horses, we still need to rely on servants like the Xiongnu to have enough troops to attack Qin. It will take about ten years for these children to grow up, so let’s take ten years as the target period!" Thinking of the current situation of the imperial kingdom, Zhong Yu was also helpless.

"Ten years? Is this a long time? It's not a short time, but for the princes of the world, it is a difficult time to last!" Thinking about this time in his heart, Cao Cao felt embarrassed for a while.

For those greedy princes, they are now able to unite with the Yu Kingdom to fight against Qin's invasion because they have reached a moment of life and death.

But now that the princes of the world have joined forces with millions of troops to attack Qin with this number of troops, the victory or defeat should be decided in just one or two years, and it is impossible to delay it for so long.

Could it be that Cao Cao could still ask these countries, but they persisted for the benefit of the imperial country, wasting their own country's heritage and sparing their own country's blood

"So, in order for these greedy dogs to obediently work for our country, we must throw some bones to give them motivation and attract their attention?" Hearing Cao Cao's dilemma, Zhong Yu was not surprised. Tell me your plans!

"Bone? What kind of bone is that?" Cao Cao didn't know how much profit his Emperor would be willing to give up to feed these greedy princes.

"I don't want all the land captured by the coalition forces. How about giving it to them?" As soon as he opened his mouth, Zhong Yu made a huge choice.
