Chapter 417

After all, survivability is truly important.

The reason Liu Bei was able to establish the Shu Han regime in original history has a great deal to do with his indomitable spirit.

Of course.

Whenever we sigh with emotion at the romance of Shu Han and the backbone of Cao Wei, we must also sigh at a certain rat-like figure in Eastern Wu.

(PS: This little author is not a Shu-hater, nor a Wei-hater, just a Sun Shiwan-hater. But in other words, it seems there is no need to deliberately hate Sun Shiwan, because he is already black enough on his own.)

……

After obtaining the support of the four great aristocratic families of Jiangdong, Liu Bei's strength expanded rapidly.

After all.

Jiangdong had not experienced the flames of war for a long time, so the "milk supply" from the four great aristocratic families was relatively sufficient.

Regarding this ambitious hero Liu Bei, Gu Yi decided to eradicate him as soon as possible.

For no other reason than that Liu Bei's ability to run away was too strong.

What if, after driving him out of Jiangdong, he ran to another place to stir up trouble?

Therefore.

This time, Gu Yi decided to finish off Liu Bei first, while simultaneously taking the land of Jiangdong completely.

In history, Cao Cao had once fallen into anxiety before the Battle of Red Cliffs due to naval problems.

But Gu Yi had long since taken precautions against the problems Cao Cao faced.

After he pacified Yizhou, he began to dispatch Gan Ning to train a naval force.

Up to now.

Gan Ning had already trained a full fifty-thousand-strong naval force!

Among them, there were three thousand elites with the Brocade Sail Thieves as the core.

Possessing these fifty thousand naval troops, combined with other armies.

For Gu Yi, conquering Jiangdong did not pose any particularly great difficulty.

After leaving the cavalry units in Xuzhou for defense.

Gu Yi began to prepare the deployment for the southern campaign.

Upon learning the news that his boss Gu Yi was preparing to head south.

The deputy commander of the personal guards, Xu Sheng, found the imitation ancient ingot saber in his hand already hungry and thirsty!
