Chapter 56: South Empire X State of Shu

Meanwhile, the emperor of the State of Shu also received a letter saying that the South Empire will help the Wu Empire to destroy the State of Shu in return for taking away the empress.

They didn't know how Wu Empire doted on his empress so they thought losing an empress is not a big deal for an emperor which usually has hundreds of concubines and consorts in his imperial harem. Therefore, they take it seriously the words in the letter.

The next day, Yu Zhougong asks half of the soldiers to be prepared to march to the State of Shu. In estimation, South Empire has around 230,000 soldiers. South Empire also had a huge navy of thousands of ships.

Yu Zhougong plans to use the ships to transport his troops across the Yangtze River. He is confident in the naval force so he took around 10,000 of them on the ship, sail to the State of Shu. 10,000 calvaries and 20,000 infantries.
