Gao Shun's words directly hit the point.

That is, there are not many defenders in Pulao City, and even the number of real soldiers of the Han Dynasty today is pitifully small compared to its peak.

The reason for this situation is the collective transcendence of the soldiers.

Those soldiers who were not even in the body tempering realm were all dismissed.

So the quantity is much less.

After all, it is difficult for a big man to raise so many extraordinary soldiers. They have to eat a lot every day.

If the Han Dynasty had not controlled a land area of ​​40 million square kilometers, he might not have been able to support so many soldiers.

Every loss of one is enough to cause pain for the general leading these soldiers for a long time.

Therefore, Gao Shun did not agree to go out to fight in the city.

After all, the actual situation does not allow it.

"Why don't we unite with other surrounding cities to fight against the Sea Clan, or at least beat them up so hard that we won't dare to take another step into the Han Dynasty in at least a year or two, otherwise we won't be able to build the city."

Zhang Liao never thought about annihilating all the Hai Clan. After all, the number of the Hai Clan is still a mystery to this day. Just looking at the size of the ocean, you can know that it is absolutely impossible to completely annihilate the Hai Clan.

But Zhang Liao felt that it was still possible to break the Hai Clan's covetousness for the Han Dynasty.

"Join other people? Who can we unite with? There is not even a city in Jiaozhou. The people have moved to Jingzhou and us. The two states of Qingxu have merged into one. The guarding generals are Yuwen Chengdu and Wenpin. We are not very familiar with either of them. If I rashly borrow troops, can they give them to me?"

Gao Shun had no confidence in this at all. It was easiest to borrow troops from their old boss Lu Bu, but Lu Bu was guarding Bingzhou, which was far away from them.

"How can you know if you don't try? Besides, Xun Wenruo, the governor of Yangzhou, is not here. The Xun family is also a well-known family and must have many connections. Let him go to Qingzhou to borrow troops, maybe it will work."

Zhang Liao had no intention of going by himself.

After all, Liu Xie had arranged everything before retreating. There were at least two generals and one civil servant guarding each place, each performing their duties and doing their job well.

No one wants to make mistakes in the place they are responsible for, so it is extremely difficult to borrow soldiers from other places.

But it would be different if Xun Yu went. The Xun family was considered a wealthy family and had connections in various places.

Moreover, with Xun Yu's reputation, he was much more likely to be able to borrow troops than the other two.

"Is it possible? What if it gets messed up?"

Gao Shun still doesn't recommend taking rash actions. When Liu Xie comes out, the evil spirits will naturally have nothing to hide.

All difficulties can be easily solved.

"How can you know if you don't try!"

In the end, Gao Shun couldn't defeat Zhang Liao and had to join forces to find Xun Yu.

When the two came to the door, Xun Yu was still lying on the shore and immersed in government affairs.

Feeling that his vision was blocked, he raised his head and saw the two of them standing at the door like door gods without saying a word.

"I don't seem to have offended the two generals recently?"

The expressions of these two people almost made Xun Yu feel unconfident. Thinking about it carefully, it seemed that there was no conflict with them.

But these two people looked constipated and were still blocking the door. Could they be hiding something?

"You said."

Gao Shun opened his mouth, but couldn't speak, so he had to pat Zhang Liao beside him to let him speak.

"That...this...oh~"

Zhang Liao couldn't say it out loud. After all, it was a bit unspeakable for him to confidently ask Xun Yu to borrow troops for them.

"If you have any questions, you two generals, just ask, why are you acting like little girls?" Xun Yu finally understood that these two people did not have any grudge against him, but they had something they wanted to take on him.

As long as it's not something illegal or disciplinary, Xun Yu is happy to help them.

After all, they are now one, and only by guarding Pulao City can they live up to the emperor's trust.

"The thing is like this. The Sea Clan has been attacking frequently recently. We wanted to go out of the city to fight, but we didn't have enough soldiers, so..."

Gao Shun gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, closed his eyes tightly and said.

"So that's it. The two generals hope that the imperial court can send more soldiers. It's simple. When I go to the imperial court to explain my interests, we will definitely be able to invite more soldiers."

Xun Yu looked like he understood, which made the two of them feel a little embarrassed.

"That's not the case. We also know that there are not many soldiers in the imperial court. Prefect Xun can borrow some. We don't need that many people to defend the city."

Zhang Liao quickly spoke.

Xun Yu really didn't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt were. Nowadays, the soldiers of the Han Dynasty are like a bottomless pit. It's hard to support 30,000 soldiers in a city. If the court sends more people, I'm afraid that these people won't wait for the demon clan to attack. It can destroy Pulao City.

Not to mention providing them with the materials they need for cultivation, it is a bottomless pit.

"I see, borrowing troops is not easy to do. When His Majesty first divided the city, the number of soldiers in each city was fixed. If you want to go to other places, there are no extra soldiers that can be lent to us."

Xun Yu was in trouble for a while. It was better for the court to ask for a memorial. As long as they could afford a big man, there were many people who were willing to serve as soldiers.

But borrowing troops is not easy to do. If you are not careful, you can easily put others in danger.

"Prefect Xun will try it first, just in case it works!"

Gao Shun was a little disappointed in his heart, but it didn't show on his face. He still had the same paralyzed face that had not changed for thousands of years.

"Then I'll give it a try. The one closest to us is Yuzhou. The governor of Yuzhou, Xu Chu, used to be His Majesty's personal guard. I'm quite familiar with him. Maybe he's willing to lend his troops to me. You two, please wait a moment. , wait for me to write a letter."

"Then I'll give you Governor Lao."

……

East China Sea.

Bernie has been feeling very uncomfortable recently. Since the last time he was defeated by the Han navy in the South China Sea, his reputation has been greatly reduced. Countless sea tribes have broken away from his control and become independent.

Originally, he planned to conquer these sea tribes again, but as a result, many strong men suddenly appeared in the sea.

What about the Kraken, Ran Yi, Fish Nest...

One is longer and weirder than the other, and each one is more terrifying than the last.

There's not much to say about the Kraken. It's just that it's so big. If it were floating on the sea, you might think it was an island at first glance. Even if Bernie activated the Poseidon Halberd, it wouldn't be able to hurt it.

Ran Yi is much weirder. No one has seen what it looks like. They only know the places where it has appeared. All living things cannot sleep, then their memory declines, and eventually they die. After looking for it for a long time, Bernie only encountered Ran Yi leaving. From now on, the dead sea.

The fish nest is a carp with four dragon claws. Bernie almost lost the Poseidon Halberd when he fought with it.

The other sea monsters were more terrifying than the last, so Bernie set his sights on land.

After learning that Liu Xie was practicing in seclusion, he did not hesitate to force the Hai clan to attack the Han.

Without him, the strong men on other lands are still very active. After landing ashore, he can't defeat any of them. He can only take advantage of Liu Xie's absence to occupy the Han Dynasty's land first.

"I'll give you three more days. If you still can't occupy a piece of land suitable for survival, then don't blame me for making you all into dried fish."
