Chapter 2210 Completely Hatred
Sun Pu was extremely angry.
It was his idea to intercept the Northwest Army's grain transport team and even attempt to blackmail Shao Yunduan into giving him a batch of grain.
Of course, this was tacitly approved by his father.
But it was he who stepped forward to take charge.
I thought this was my territory, I had the initiative in my hands, I could definitely tear off a piece of meat, right? I didn't expect General Feng of the Northwest Army to intervene for such a small matter!
It's not shameful for him to do such a thing with his status.
It was really infuriating to watch Shao Yunduan's younger brother leading the grain transport team like a long dragon slowly passing through his territory with such a shaky look on his face!
In Sun Pu's heart, he completely hated Shao Yunduan.
When the three grain transports were completed, Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan both breathed a sigh of relief. Now that the Northwest Army had added a large amount of food, life would surely be much better.
Shao Yunduan did not slack off in collecting grain, and stored the new grain, and the quantity was quite large.
When there is a shortage of young people next year, we can continue to support the Northwest Army.
Not long after, as the twelfth lunar month arrived, the fighting on Zheng Sangge's side also stopped.
Everyone can have a peaceful New Year.
What no one expected was that the prefect of Hangzhou did not have a peaceful year!
It was thought that the Third Prince was driven out of Jinan by the Second Prince and fled to Jiangning City to seek refuge. He had not made any movement for such a long time. Even when the Fourth Prince and the Second Prince were fighting fiercely in the Central Plains, the Third Prince did not make any move.
So much so that almost everyone ignored him.
Unexpectedly, he had already set his sights on a large area in Jiangnan.
When no one was paying much attention, Suzhou and Yangzhou areas had already fallen into his control. He took advantage of the fact that the Hangzhou prefect was defeated by Shao Yunduan and his strength was greatly reduced, and launched a surprise attack at the end of the year. He took off most of the Hangzhou prefect's territory, including Huzhou, Jiaxing, Deqing and other places, and then approached Hangzhou city, leaving the Hangzhou prefect no chance to breathe, intending to take Hangzhou city in one go.
The prefect of Hangzhou was terrified. When the Third Prince ordered his men to persuade him to surrender, he probably knew that even if he insisted on holding on, he would only be able to survive, so he simply surrendered.
It was true that he still had some troops under his command, but after fighting with Shao Yunduan for so long, he had never won a single battle. Apart from being ridiculed and suffering heavy losses, he gained nothing.
My confidence has been shattered to pieces, and my territory has been invaded again and again, and I can't get it back no matter how hard I try!
In this case, if he doesn't surrender, how long can he hold on to such a small place? If he is defeated and captured in the end, he might as well surrender to the Third Prince!
After all, the Third Prince is the legitimate son of the Empress, and the most qualified prince to inherit the throne. Moreover, he occupies such a large and prosperous territory in the south of the Yangtze River, which is a capital that others cannot envy!
Who dares to say that the third prince will not be the one to take the throne in the future? If I support him now, and the third prince takes over the whole world in the future, I will be a follower of the dragon, and I will be able to get the position of minister of six ministries, which is a first-class official!
How many first-rank officials are there in the entire Qin Dynasty?
The glory of being the most powerful official in the country makes one's heart burn with excitement just thinking about it...
As a result, the third prince took over the city of Hangzhou with almost no effort.
