After hearing Shen Qiu's words, Huo Zhanfei's thin lips curled up in a happy arc.

The Four Elephants Party was unwilling to let go of the spoils that were within their reach, so they sent Zheng Ke.

He tapped his slender fingers lightly and sneered. If he wanted to get the upper hand from Feng Jin, then he would have to perish together with him.

After returning to his residence, Huo Zhan took off his coat and handed it to Shen Qiu. He glanced at Huo Qi who was guarding the stairs and asked, "Is the Madam in the room?"

Huo Qi nodded and said, "As for Green City, I have already contacted them. With Huo Er here, there will be no problem. He also kept his word and opened a pharmaceutical factory for us, including the private drug transportation line of the United Party."

Huo Zhan narrowed his eyes slightly, asked no more questions, and strode upstairs.

The room was quiet. He pushed the door open and saw Yun Chu half-lying on the bed again, already half asleep with his eyes closed.

He curved his lips into a smile, and walked forward to cover her with the quilt. She always seemed very sleepy after she became pregnant.

It's spring now and the weather is getting warmer, but it's still a bit chilly in the house.

As soon as he moved, Yun Chu woke up again and blinked: "You're back."

Huo Zhan held her face and kissed her, his thin lips still feeling a little cold: "It's my fault."

Yun Chu shook his head again: "Shanghai is the most important city. We finally got it, so we naturally need to think of more ways to defend it. Now it should have become a hot spot in the eyes of all parties. Of course, if it can withstand the Japanese soldiers who will gather next, it will be even better. If I am not mistaken, the Four Elephants Party should have some ideas, but I don't know if they will contact you."

Of course she knew how much pressure Huo Zhan was carrying now, as he had to be responsible for the soldiers stationed in Shanghai.

They were able to take over Shanghai without losing a single soldier, firstly because the Japanese did not know that they had cheated, and secondly because of luck, as they found an opportunity that could lead to internal strife in Japan, and easily found the time and loophole to take action.

But then, Japanese people from all over the country gathered and attacked Shanghai with real guns and swords.

At this time, there are no opportunities or loopholes, and we have to rely on strength.

Hearing Yun Chu mention the Four Elephants Party again, Huo Zhan's eyes moved slightly: "We have already contacted them, and sent people to help."

Hearing this, Yun Chu sneered again: "Rush to the rescue? That sounds better than singing."

Huo Zhan chuckled, and pushed Yun Chu's slightly messy hair behind her ears, saying, "Not only did they send people to help, but they also sent Admiral Zheng Ke. You may not know him, but he is from Phoenix City and is Zheng Xubai's uncle."

"Oh? People from Phoenix City?" Yun Chu frowned again, a cold light flashed in his starry eyes.

No one would believe that the Four Elephants Party's move had no hidden meaning.

Huo Zhan told the story of Zheng Ke's relationship with Phoenix City. After listening, Yun Chu snorted, "Among the troops sent by the Four Elephants Party this time, there must be people from Phoenix City mixed in. They are here to seek revenge under the guise of rushing to help."

Huo Zhan was quite relaxed. He said, "Just don't let them enter the city. Delay them a little longer and block Zheng Ke's people and the Four Elephants Party outside. We can just sit on the sidelines and watch. Who knows, we might be able to take advantage of the situation. Why should we be afraid?"

Yun Chu raised his eyes again, slightly surprised: "I thought you would let Zheng Ke enter the city and guard the dock."

Huo Zhan shrugged. "Use your strengths to attack their weaknesses. The Huo family army is not good at naval battles, so why not force the Japanese army to land? If we can't defend Shanghai, the Japanese can forget about it. We can use this as a base and see who has the stronger firepower."

Yun Chu smacked his lips again and gave Huo Zhan a thumbs up: "Sure enough."

Huo Zhan has never been a person who is restrained by his hands. The Four Elephants Party wanted to control him with the navy, which was a bad move.

He was never afraid of fighting a larger force with a smaller one, and would rather perish together with his enemy than allow someone to suck his blood from him.

In the novel, Fengjin was heading towards destruction because of Huo Zhan's death, but now it is different.

Huo Zhan's beautiful eyes were filled with tenderness, and he smiled and said, "Madam, you are too kind."

Yun Chu met his gaze again and said, "Actually, our chances of winning a naval battle are not that low. I have a plan."

Huo Zhan raised his eyebrows, leaned forward slightly, and said seriously: "Oh? I'd like to hear the details."

Yun Chu curled his lips again, not wanting to play fast and loose with Huo Zhan, and said, "I'll give you an injection of medicine first, in your arm."

She turned her wrist and a potion appeared in her palm.

Huo Zhan had already taken off his military uniform when he heard her words, revealing his strong and powerful arms. He glanced at the potion in Yun Chu's hand and said, "Come on, please." without asking about its effect.

Yun Chu smiled again and injected the super soldier serum into Huo Zhan. The next moment, the drug took effect. He frowned and endured the severe pain in his body. Yun Chu was naturally aware of this feeling, but for Huo Zhan, there was no big movement.

Time passed by second by second, and the effect of the medicine penetrated into every part of his body. Huo Zhan clenched his palms in a daze.

"This is..." He put away his relaxed expression, and his face was filled with shock, which even gradually became serious.

Yun Chu pursed her red lips again and said, "It's a medicine that improves physical fitness, but it's very scarce. There are only two of them, one for you and one for me."

"Super Soldier Serum" can prolong life, which is another reason why she chose to inject the serum into Huo Zhan. Life is short, and it is not easy to meet a like-minded partner. If there is a chance to go further, then naturally you cannot give up.

Huo Zhan has ambitions, and now his ideas coincide with hers.

No matter what the future of Fengjin will be, at least they have a common goal at the moment, which is to expel the Japanese, find the lost land, make Kyushu complete, and liberate millions of enslaved people.

Huo Zhan's Adam's apple rolled, and he pursed his thin lips tightly as he sensed the violent power awakening in his body.

Of course he knew how precious such a potion was, and there was no need for many words of gratitude between the two of them, but he was deeply touched in his heart. Perhaps because of his experiences since childhood, in his heart, the relationship between husband and wife has always been the weakest.

When he made up his mind to give his heart to Yun Chuyou, he was already prepared for the pain.

But Yun Chu's gentleness time and time again made him realize that there are more perfect endings for the relationship between husband and wife.

Huo Zhan held Yun Chuyou's hand for a long time without saying a word. His obscure expression revealed indescribable emotions.

"Moved?" Yun Chu chuckled again and reached out to touch Huo Zhan's face: "Alas, you are so beautiful and so handsome that I can't bear to let you go. I am still looking forward to having many children with you and witnessing the completion of Jiuzhou together."

Hearing this, Huo Zhan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he tightened Yun Chuyou's hand and said softly, "Okay."

"Let's get down to business. I mentioned earlier that I have a plan to target the Japanese army that is preparing to sail here. Their naval strategy is several times stronger than ours. In this case, why not take the initiative and ambush them directly on the routes to Shanghai!"

Yun Chu's voice was light and melodious, but it also revealed a hint of murderous intent.

"If we set up an ambush first, the situation will indeed fall into our control, but we are not good at naval battles and we don't have warships. Rather than an ambush, it's more like walking into a trap. Perhaps Madam has a way to change our disadvantage?"

Huo Zhan spoke slowly, first telling the result, then looking at Yun Chu again, asking her what she thought.

Yun Chu has never been a person who likes to brag. Since she has such a plan, she must have a way to deal with it.
