He glanced around at everyone present.
Surely no one came to Shangjun just to pay respects to Song Jingning.
Their goals were the same. He looked at Sheng Xiao again. He was a good general, but why should he risk his life for that dog emperor?
Seeing that no one responded, Sheng Xiao's gaze grew colder and colder.
Jiang Yu drank the wine in her glass.
He then looked at Sheng Xiao and said, "General, you have come from afar and are a guest of Shangjun, but please refrain from speaking of matters that are not relevant to this matter."
Meeting Sheng Xiao's gaze, Jiang Yu did not back down in the slightest.
"We dare not forget what happened at Julu three years ago. If we accept this decree, we fear our consciences will not be at peace, and we will be letting down the fallen soldiers and the people of this world."
Gu Yucheng also looked at Sheng Xiao and said, "We have always respected the general for his heart for the country and the people. Now the general insists on aiding and abetting evil, is that right with the people of the world?"
"The Zhou emperor was unrighteous, and Heaven punished the Zhou. If the Zhou emperor does not die, the people will not be at peace. The people of the world should rise up in rebellion to eliminate the Zhou and bring peace to the people."
"Remove Zhou Anmin and restore peace to the people..."
"Remove Zhou Anmin and restore peace to the people..."
Apart from the people Sheng Xiao brought, everyone shouted in unison.
Their gazes toward Sheng Xiao were utterly cold, as if Sheng Xiao were the heinous Emperor Zhou.
At this moment, Sheng Xiao finally realized that the Great Zhou Dynasty was doomed. It wasn't just that Jiang Yu and Gu Yucheng were eyeing the world with covetousness, but that the people of the world could no longer tolerate the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Amidst the voices, his face grew paler and paler.
Finally, he glanced at Jiang Yu and the others.
"In that case, we shall meet again on the battlefield. I take my leave."
After saying that, he quickly left Shangjun with his men.
No one stopped him from leaving, nor did anyone try to stop him; it was his choice, and when they went to the battlefield, they would each fight their own battles.
After he left, Gu Yuchen stepped forward.
"Now that the Zhou Emperor's men have left, the matter of attacking the Great Zhou should be carried out as soon as possible."
As long as Emperor Zhou lives, the Zhou Dynasty will never perish, and these people will always be illegitimate and without legitimacy.
Now, Emperor Zhou has fled to Changsha, where Sheng Xiao is in charge.
Their forces were roughly equal to those of Changsha, but no one was willing to exhaust their strength and let others reap the benefits.
That is why the Zhou emperor has been able to survive until now.
This year, they all gathered here with the same goal: to overthrow the Zhou emperor and destroy the Great Zhou dynasty.
After discussion, the group agreed to each send 100,000 troops to march south together and attack the Great Zhou.
After everyone had left Shangjun.
Jiang Yucai finally had time to meet with members of the Jiang and Song families.
Jiang Yu welcomed all those who remained from the Jiang family.
He had absolutely no goodwill towards the Song family.
However, he still met with the Song family.
Jiang Yu sat on the high platform, looking at the newcomer with a completely emotionless expression. "What does Lord Song wish to discuss with me?"
Song Jingming, Song Jingning's elder brother, looked at Jiang Yu with a humble attitude: "Our Song family of Luoyang is willing to surrender to Shangjun. We humbly request that the Prefect accept our offer."
Jiang Yu looked at Song Jingming without answering.
Uncle Wang stood to the side, his expression complex.
But the final decision rests with Jiang Yu herself.
"Since you are surrendering, I wonder what abilities the Song family possesses?"
...
After this matter was settled, Qi Nuan looked at Jiang Yu. She had thought that Jiang Yu would not accept the Song family, but she did not expect that he would accept the Song family.
Jiang Yu looked at Qi Nuan and said, "Instead of pushing people to others, it's better to keep them in Shangjun."
Now is the time when he needs people, so of course he won't do anything to the Song family because of personal grudges.
However, the Song family members who stayed in Shangjun did not fare well either.
What's needed on the battlefield are people.
Since they dared to come, they should be prepared to make sacrifices.
In the autumn of the forty-ninth year of the Xuanhe era.
Rebel armies were formed in various counties across the country and attacked Changsha.
The Great Zhou suffered repeated defeats, and now, Jiang Yu and his men have attacked Hengshan.
On the battlefield, Qi Nuan encountered Ye Sheng again.
This time, they were not opponents, but allies.
Of all the armies, only the Langya Army and the Shangjun Army had female soldiers.
Ye Sheng looked at Qi Nuan and said, "Let them see how powerful our women's army is."
Qi Nuan looked up and smiled, "Okay."
After saying this, the two led their female army into the enemy formation opposite them.
This was the first clash between the rebel army and the Great Zhou army.
There is no room for peace talks; only war.
Watching Ye Sheng and Qi Nuan lead their men into the battlefield, Gu Yucheng raised an eyebrow and smiled, looking at Jiang Yu.
"How about we have a match?"
Jiang Yu naturally saw the fighting spirit in his eyes. He looked at Qi Nuan on the battlefield and then nodded to Gu Yucheng.
The two men rode their horses into the battlefield.
Jiang Yu came to Qi Nuan's side, and Qi Nuan naturally saw Gu Yucheng next to Ye Sheng.
The four men stared at each other, their eyes blazing with fighting spirit.
This is their battlefield.
The two teams of men and women worked together seamlessly, moving through any area as if it were empty, their knives incredibly sharp.
Having been through countless battles, they were now as cold as the knives in their hands.
Only when blood gushes out can one feel the passing of life.
Qi Nuan blocked the arrow aimed at Jiang Yu, and the others looked up.
A middle-aged man dressed in bright yellow clothes on the city wall was looking at them with a cold expression.
Clearly, the arrows from the city wall were aimed at them.
All the arrows were shot in their direction.
Qi Nuan looked at Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu nodded.
The two quickly withdrew from the battlefield.
The same applies to Gu Yucheng and Ye Sheng.
Qi Nuan looked at the people on the city wall.
They wondered why the arrows from the city wall were specifically targeting them.
If Jiang Yu and Gu Yucheng were the leaders of the uprising, it wouldn't be surprising that they were attacked, but she looked at the battlefield.
The rebel leaders in other counties were not targeted.
For example, Liao Ziquan of Bashu and Wu Jiliang of Yuyang were surrounded by many enemy soldiers, but they were not attacked by arrows.
After Qi Nuan and the others moved out of the range of the arrows.
The arrows also stopped attacking.
Jiang Yu and Gu Yucheng naturally noticed this anomaly as well.
The group looked at the bright yellow figures watching them from the city wall.
They were actually quite far apart, and they couldn't see the expressions on the other person's face, but they could feel the gaze directed at them.
It carried the chilling aura of a venomous snake, and was filled with hatred.
Those on the city wall, seeing that the enemy had withdrawn from the battlefield, turned their attention to the archers.
Useless trash, all of it is just trash.
Such a good opportunity, yet they still managed to escape. Now that they're on guard, it won't be easy to get rid of them.
Huang Han stood aside, not daring to say a word, for fear of angering His Majesty.
However, he narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked at the people below the city.
His Majesty seems to care a lot about those two.
During the Battle of Julu, His Majesty ordered him to eliminate these two men, but unfortunately they escaped.
The Zhou Emperor looked at the people below with a cold gaze. It was truly a case of one wrong step leading to another.
