Chapter 962: Chenzhou Must Be Taken
Sheng Ze nodded, "Uncle Liang heard correctly, I did say that we must take Chenzhou as soon as possible."
Only by holding Chenzhou in their hands can they start naval training and have a large amount of coal resources, and the navy and coal mines are crucial in future wars.
"But didn't we just discuss a few days ago that we should stay indoors this winter and try not to go to war with any forces?" Liang Cheng was puzzled.
Sheng Ze pursed his lips and said, "Uncle Liang, please believe me, we must take Chenzhou, otherwise it will be too late."
"It's too late to worry about whether Your Highness is afraid of King Zhao or the imperial court. We have fought with them before during this period. If we really fight seriously, my Hubei Northern Army will not be afraid. Not to mention anything else, we can definitely protect you!" Liang Cheng still had confidence in this.
But Sheng Ze still shook his head, "It's really too late, Uncle Liang, please make arrangements as soon as possible, we must take Chenzhou!"
Having seen the Three Worlds, he knew very well that this cold winter would be beyond everyone's expectations. It would not just end in a few months, but would last for three full years!
He didn't know why the cold winter of his first life didn't appear in his previous life, but he had a premonition that the purgatory on earth would be repeated in this life.
Seeing that he was serious, Liang Cheng also calmed down and thought carefully.
With the current strength of the Hubei Northern Army, it is not impossible to fight against King Zhao of Chenzhou, but if it does so, it will not be able to cope with the pincer attack from the imperial court.
But Sheng Ze also knew this, but he insisted on taking Chenzhou, which shows that Chenzhou is of vital importance to them, and they must do it even if they risk being attacked by the imperial court.
"I can't make a decision on this matter right now. I need to ask Lord Zheng to come and discuss it." Liang Cheng said solemnly to Sheng Ze after thinking about it.
Sheng Ze was well aware of the problem and nodded in agreement, "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Liang."
After saying this, he took Jun Yichen and Yuan Lai to find Ling Yun.
Ling Yun was with Xu Yang at the time. When he saw Sheng Ze coming, the familiar feeling immediately made him realize that his master might have recovered his memory.
Sure enough, as soon as Sheng Ze opened his mouth, Ling Yun was certain.
"Lingyun, Xuyang, come with me." Sheng Ze nodded slightly to the two of them, then walked into the house next to him.
This was where he and Ling Yun had discussed military matters before.
Soon, the room was filled with several grown men.
"Master, have you recovered your memory?" Ling Yun asked with shining eyes.
Sheng Ze nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work during this period."
Originally, after repelling the imperial army, his identity was exposed. He should have taken the opportunity to immediately establish his prestige in the army, or even announce the matter to the world and force King Zhao to come to negotiate, but because of his amnesia, all these were postponed.
"Master, you are too polite. It is my blessing that you get better. As long as you give me an order, I will obey it!" Xuyang immediately clasped his fists and knelt on one knee.
Sheng Ze raised his hand to help him up, "That's not necessary."
Although Ling Yun and others were nominally master and servant, he treated them as brothers in his heart.
However, Xuyang and the others were taught too strictly by their father, and always regarded themselves as subordinates and never overstepped the boundaries.
"Enough, enough, Xiaoliu, you called us here because you have something for us to do, right? Just tell me what it is!" Yuan Lai said, almost scratching his ears and cheeks in anxiety.
He is really impatient. He knows something is wrong but doesn't know what it is. It really makes people anxious to death.
"I'm still feeling a bit dizzy from my cold, so I'll call it a day. I'll keep working hard tomorrow~"
