Chapter 593
the next day.The weather is clear and misty, with a touch of humidity covering the sky and the earth.

The leaves of vegetation and trees in the field are covered with dewdrops transformed by water vapor. When they are lightly shaken, the dewdrops will show colorful brilliance under the sunshine.

Changshu City is the important town of the Sun Clan in Eastern Wu, guarding the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and it is also a barrier for Suzhou in the north.This city is extremely huge, and there are at least hundreds of thousands of people in the city.

The cities in the world of Shenzhou, but all the famous cities in history, the number of people is more than hundreds of thousands.

There is no way, from the beginning of the Warring States period to the Qing Dynasty, the number of creatures that descended on the world of Shenzhou in the thousands of years of history is far more than billions.The princes from all walks of life in the south of the Yangtze River, regardless of the size of the territory, only in terms of population and military strength, each of them is comparable to the unified dynasty in history.

For example, the Huai Army now has over a million soldiers and tens of millions of soldiers, which is already the strength of a unified dynasty.

A little less than Zhu Ming and Liu Song, there are more than 1000 million under the rule of Dingkou.

Dingkou under the Southern Song Dynasty had a population of at least 2000 million. Even the worst Xiao Qi, Jiangyin, Changzhou and other places had a population of 800 million.

Sufficient population represents sufficient military strength and background.

If there is a need for explosive troops, these people will be quickly transformed into weapons... Of course, this also requires strong mobilization capabilities and internal affairs systems to support.

The Soochow Sun family did a bit poorly in this regard.

Knowing that the Huai Army's million troops are about to go south, the number of troops in Changshu City is still less than 30, and they are all a group of recruits that Sun Quan forcibly recruited not long ago.

Is Soochow short of soldiers?

If you only look at the surface, there is indeed a lack of soldiers. Before the Huai army went south, Soochow had nearly 50 soldiers and horses. princes.

It can be said that it is thriving day by day, and it can be regarded as second to none among the princes in the south of the Yangtze River.

But after the Huai army's strategy started, more than half of Sun Jian's more than 10,000 soldiers and horses were wiped out, and only a few remnants of the defeated generals fled back. Sun Ce's [-]+ elite soldiers were restrained in the south.

Not long ago, the [-] navy was defeated.

There are also guards stationed in various places... Minus these, Sun's standing and available troops are less than [-].

An army of [-], if in the history of the original world, such a force could still rule the roost for a while, Cao Cao's soldiers and horses in the Battle of Guandu were only [-] to [-], and it was not a great cause in the end.

But in the world of Shenzhou, with the existence of ninth-tier fierce generals and stellar generals, the status of ordinary soldiers began to decline.

Only the real historical-level special arms, that is, elite soldiers and strong generals, are the real backbone of a power.

The elite soldiers in Sun Quan's hands can only be selected from Shanyue's elite soldiers.

Apart from these elite soldiers and the various generals under Sun's command, if the so-called [-] army really dared to confront the Huai army, it might not be able to last even a day.

Therefore, Sun Quan dispatched as many recruits as possible to Changshu...

But if you look at it as a whole, there is no shortage of elites in Soochow, and there are quite a few family soldiers from aristocratic families in various places. With these elite soldiers as the core, an army of 40 to [-] can even be formed.

This is the status quo of Soochow. The Sun family and the powerful families below ruled together.

The Sun family suffered a disastrous defeat. It was the Sun family's loss. Most of the wealthy families would not agree if they wanted to use their wealth to fight the Huai army.

With the Sun family gone, they can go to the new owner. If the family business is gone, then they are really gone.

Many aristocratic and powerful families still have some thoughts secretly. If they fight too hard with the Huai army, they might be liquidated after the defeat of Soochow...

It was able to replenish Changshu with 30 soldiers and horses, and sent generals such as Zhou Tai, Han Dang, and Zu Mao.

This is already Sun Quan's greatest support to Lu Meng.

On the top of the city, Lu Meng led several generals to look towards the north, and saw the huge military camp more than ten miles away in the mist of the morning, as if it was ready to go, and it was on the ground. ferocious beast.

Just looking at it gives people a ferocious aura.

"The main force of the Huai Army has gathered. Yesterday, spies saw that King Huai's banner had also arrived here..."

"The generals in the army, led by Shi Wansui and Yu Wencheng... There are also generals such as Zhang Hao, Wen Qin, Wen Yang, etc. They should not be underestimated."

Chen Wu next to him whispered to everyone about the current situation.

Up to Lu Meng, down to the guards on the top of the city, everyone's face is not easy.

Han Dang and Zu Mao looked at the Huai army camp in the north, apart from the fierce murderous intent and determination to avenge the old lord, there was also a trace of undetectable fear.

They were ambushed by the Huai army not long ago, and the two of them were very unconvinced.Feel useless.Aggrieved.

The Huai army dispatched two ninth-rank fierce generals, and it only took tens of thousands of people to ambush them, and they were killed... They asked themselves, if they were given the same strength, they would be no worse than the Huai army.

But after hearing Chen Wu's explanation.

They suddenly realized the strength of the Huai Army. In addition to the West Route Army led by Gan Ning to the west, the main force of the Huai Army was Shi Wansui, Yuwen Chengdu, and Zhang Hao.

Shi Wansui was the number one general in the Sui Dynasty, Zhang Hao was the enemy of the former Qin Dynasty, and Yuwen Chengdu was known as the reincarnation of Thor...

Any one of these three people who came forward could kill both of them...

In Changshu City, apart from Lu Meng, there is no second ninth-level supporter, and Zhou Tai, who is known as brave and fearless, is only at the peak strength of eighth-level.

Being brave and fearless does not mean being invincible. In history, Zhou Tai suffered more than a hundred injuries to his body and tried his best to keep Sun Quan safe and sound on the battlefield. He has a good reputation.It stands to reason that there should be a ninth level of potential.

But he was injured in more than a hundred places, another way of saying is that his martial arts are not very good,

Dian Wei and Xu Chu also protect the monarch. Have they ever been injured?

Being able to reach the peak of the eighth order is already the blessing effect of Zhou Tai's historical fame in the Shenzhou world.

"I understand! Not long ago I fought against Shi Wansui of the Huai Army. I have already experienced their strength!"

Lu Meng said lightly.

He glanced at the generals around him, and said: "But don't worry, Mr. Zi Jing will come to help out soon, and the second son is trying to persuade Liu Yu."

"From Liu Yu's point of view, the Huai Army must not tolerate the successful crossing of the river. At that time, our army will join forces with Liu Song to resist the Huai Army!"

Hearing this, Han Dang heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "If Liu Yu is willing to send troops, our crisis will be solved... At least, the two thieves, Fu Youde and Yang Dayan, will not be able to advance eastward!"

Lu Meng said: "Liu Song has Liu Yu and Liu Laozhi, and together with Gan Ning, the three top powerhouses will attack from two sides. How can Fu Youde and Yang Dayan resist? It's a pity that I didn't go to the western front. If I switch with Gan Ning, I will surely avenge my old lord!"
