The negotiations went smoothly, and the two sides hit it off. Jiang Ban made the greatest concessions within the conditions agreed by Zhuge Dan. Not only did the expenditure of military expenditures and rations double, but the amount of land ceremonies after the completion of the matter was also expanded from a county in Lujiang to three counties in Lujiang, Anfeng and Yiyang, that is, all the territory south of the Huaihe River west of Shouchun, will be included in the territory of the State of Wu.

If this condition can be achieved, then there is no reason for Wu to refuse. After all, such conditions are really tempting. During the negotiations, even Sun Feng almost lost his saliva. It was really delicious.

The Hefei New City and the three counties including Lujiang mean that the Wu Kingdom suddenly controlled most of Huainan and pushed the territory of the Wu Kingdom northward for more than 200 miles.

More importantly, if the Wu army was invaded the Huai River for the first time, it would be that it would enter Yuzhou, the Central Plains. Sun Quan shouted the slogan of winning the Central Plains for decades, but it could be realized after his death.

Such achievements are unprecedented. Because Sun Jun removed Zhuge Ke from the position, many people in the Wu Kingdom did not recognize him, so Sun Jun's status in the Wu Kingdom was not reliable. If he could reach a cooperation with Zhuge Dan and push the territory of the Wu Kingdom two hundred miles north, Sun Jun and his Sun Jin's achievements were very outstanding. From then on, all the old ministers of the Wu Kingdom had to stand aside, and their brothers could climb to a high position, and no one could reach it.

Although Sun Jing was just a small general before, he was also an ambitious person. He even had greater ambitions than Sun Jun. Sun Jun's vision and pattern were not as great as him. If it weren't for him, Sun Jing advised him this time, he might have been able to turn the great credit out just because of Zhuge's surname.

After the negotiations with Jiang Ban, Sun Chen immediately went back to see Sun Jun and reported the details that Jiang Ban hoped that the Eastern Wu side could send troops as soon as possible. When they sent troops to take over the new city, it was the day when Zhuge Dan rose up. At that time, Zhuge Dan would issue a manifesto to the world and officially break with Sima Shi.

"Then how many troops should we send to fight?" Sun Jun asked. Maybe Sun Jun is still good at playing with conspiracy, but if he leads the army to fight, he is really not good at it. Sun Jun used to serve in the court and never had a history of serving in the army. However, Sun Jun had always served in the military position before, from the commander to the general, and now he relies on Sun Jun's relationship to serve as the general of the military. Therefore, in terms of marching and fighting, Sun Jun still has to rely on Sun Jun.

"It will cost at least 50,000 people." Sun Qian had talked with Jiang Ban about the number of troops. Jiang Ban naturally hoped that Wu could send more troops, the more would be better. However, Sun Qian had other problems. The original military power of Wu was controlled by Zhuge Ke. Most of the generals at all levels in the army were Zhuge Ke's confidants. Sun Jun had just taken the throne and was cleaning up the army. Some Zhuge Ke's direct descendants or close generals would be cleared out of the army. Therefore, at this stage, the military management of Wu's state was extremely unstable, and Sun Qian did not dare to bring the army that had not been cleared to Huainan. If a mutiny occurred in the middle of the journey, it would be a real trouble.

Therefore, Sun Jing estimated that the number of troops that could be mobilized temporarily was about 50,000, and the 50,000 people accounted for only about one-fifth of the total force of the Wu Kingdom's more than 200,000. Even if this battle was unfavorable, it would not be a disaster for the Wu Kingdom.

Of course, it would be fine if you go to less. Send 10,000 or 20,000 yuan to go there. Zhuge Dan spent such a huge price and found such a few helpers, he would definitely be dissatisfied.

So 50,000 people is a bottom line that both sides can accept. Before Jiang Ban left, Zhuge Dan asked him to seek as many reinforcements as possible, so that when Sima's army attacked, Huainan could get strong support from Wu. However, Zhuge Dan also knew that Wu could not give all his troops to help him, so being able to obtain 50,000 reinforcements was also considered Zhuge Dan's minimum requirement.

Sun Jun obviously has no big idea of ​​50,000 people. Since Sun Chen proposed to send 50,000 people, Sun Jun certainly would not have any objections. It was just that when it came to lead the army, Sun Jun would rather let Sun Chen lead the army and take charge of Jianye by himself.

But Sun Jun believes that this is inappropriate. If Sun Jun just sits in Jianye and has not led the army to send troops, then no matter how much credit he will be, it will not be counted on him in the future. Now Sun Jun urgently needs military merits to boost his reputation. It is a pity that he gave up such an excellent opportunity to make meritorious contributions in vain.

Sun Jun originally didn't want to go, after all, he had broken his hand and injured it yet. Marines and wars were a chore. Sun Jun really didn't want to get into this muddy water. But considering what Sun Jun said was the fact that although he is the first person under the 95th Master of the Wu Kingdom, he lacks reputation and is indeed difficult to convince the public.

Sun Junru was originally ranked last among the ministers of the regent, but because of his successful killing of Zhuge Ke, he jumped to the position of chief minister and became the new prime minister general of the Wu State.

Although he was seated, no one could say whether he was firm or not. Even Sun Jun himself felt a little uncomfortable. After all, although Sun Jun was from the Sun clan, he was only a branch of the family. His ancestors, only Sun Jian's younger brother, were very distant from the Sun Quan's direct lineage.

Sun Jun came to power by conspiracy and assassination, which also made many people dissatisfied. Zhuge Ke's remnants had not yet been cleared and there was a possibility of revival. The four major families in Jiangdong were also eyeing each other, eager to get a share of the coup.

Speaking of which, Sun Jun was able to successfully assassinate Zhuge Ke this time, which still had a great relationship with the four major families. If it were not for their tacit approval and support, Sun Jun would have almost no chance of success. If he failed, he would be counter-killed by Zhuge Ke. Now the one who was exterminated was not Zhuge Ke, but Sun Jun.

The power of the four major families in Jiangdong is really huge. Their foundations have reached almost all aspects of Jiangdong. Even as the chief assistant, Sun Jun is still very afraid of the four major families.
