"Mental offensive? Interesting, keep ......" The potter's eyes lit up, and he flicked his hand lightly, motioning for him to continue. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Zhang Liang said unhurriedly: "When Sun Ce swept Jiangdong before, he had a great deal of killing, and even Lu Kang, the head of the Lu family back then, died under Sun Ce's knife. ”

After a pause, Zhang Liang continued: "Now that Sun Ce has been defeated in successive battles and his prestige has declined, Liang thinks that those powerful natives must be stupid, and the king can use both grace and power to break the hearts of the people of Wu from this aspect." ”

Zhang Liang's words revealed his plan.

"Well, what the ovary said is good, if you can surrender the army without a fight, it is naturally the best." The potter naturally immediately understood Zhang Liang's intentions, and nodded in agreement.

At this time, Lu Su also bowed his hand and asked: "If the king does not dislike it, Su is willing to write a letter to the military and civilians of Jianye to call on the soldiers and civilians in the city to rebel against Sun Ce and no longer work for him." ”

The potter's eyes lit up, and Lu Su's invitation was in his arms.

You must know that Lu Su is Sun Ce's former minister, Zhou Yu's so-called friend, if Lu Su, a minister, is allowed to write this letter of persuasion, the influence on the Jianye military and civilians will definitely be greater than others.

The potter immediately agreed, so he asked Lu Su to write a letter to the military and the people of Jianye, in which he counted the massacres of Sun Ce's people in Jiangdong that year, and called on the soldiers and civilians in the city to rebel, and warned the soldiers and civilians in the city that if they continued to help Sun Ce stubbornly resist the Great Wei Tianwei, they would be punished most severely after the city was broken.

After Lu Su's "Letter to the Military and Civilian Records of Jianye" was written, the potters were very satisfied with it, and immediately ordered the scholars in the army to copy tens of thousands of copies overnight, and called the crossbowmen of Houyi's department to shoot all these inscriptions into Jianye City.

These nearly 50,000 or so inscriptions were shot into the city, and they were soon picked up by the soldiers and civilians in the city, almost one for each person, and in the blink of an eye, it had a huge impact on his psychology.

The old account of Sun Ce's slaughter of Jiangdong back then, many Wu Guoshi people still remember it, but they don't dare to say it, but the hatred in their hearts has always disappeared.

Since the pottery merchants attacked Wu, Sun Ce has been defeated in successive battles, losing countless troops and land, and the young people of Wu have been killed and injured countless times, and almost every family has been destroyed.

If Sun Ce wins, it will be fine, but he has been defeated again and again, and finally was beaten to the door by the pottery merchant, how can he not make Wu Ren dissatisfied with him.

In addition, Sun Ce used the land of a state to compete with the Great Wei, and in order to maintain his huge army, he repeatedly levied grain from Sergeant Wu, which made the people miserable and complained.

All kinds of contradictions have gathered together, and it can be said that the military and people of Wu State are close to being disappointed in Sun Ce.

And now that Jianye is besieged, the people of Jianye have fallen into a dangerous situation, and the Wu people's dissatisfaction with Sun Ce has reached an unprecedented high.

The tens of thousands of copies of the "Letter to the Military and Civilian Counsel of Jianye" by the potters sent an arrow to the city of Jianye, which further increased the dissatisfaction of the military and civilians of Wuzhong against Sun Ce, and this dissatisfaction was like a powder keg, reaching the point where it could be detonated at any time.

Of course, the potters also knew that it was impossible to win Jianye just by relying on these tens of thousands of documents, and if they wanted to break the city, they had to rely on it in the end.

Therefore, while carrying out the psychological offensive, the potters were not idle, on the one hand, they asked the soldiers to hurry up and rest, and on the other hand, they ordered Xiao He, Fan Sui and other ministers in the rear to transport grain and grass materials from Jingzhou and Huainan to the front line of Wudi.

The strategic intention of the potters was also clear, to first strike a mental blow to the enemy, and only wait for enough grain and grass to arrive at the front line before launching a full-scale attack on Jianye City.

Outside the city, the morale of the Wei army was high, the potters were full of confidence, and they were making various preparations for attacking the city, but inside the city, Sun Ce was immersed in pain and distress.

Sun Ce's soldiers and horses left behind in Jianye only had 10,000 soldiers and horses, and in the battle of Zhu Zhu, Wu's army lost 10,000 valuable soldiers and horses, and Zhou Yu only took less than 10,000 soldiers and horses and fled back to Jianye City.

This means that Sun Ce has only 20,000 available soldiers in his hands, and his morale is low and people are panicking.

The Wei army outside the city was as many as 140,000 people, which means that Sun Ce had to use 20,000 soldiers and horses to fight against nearly seven times the Wei army.

Under the small number of soldiers, Sun Ce had no choice but to order the urgent transfer of county soldiers from the hinterland of Sanwu to Jianye to make up for the disadvantage of insufficient troops.

Although these county soldiers have low combat effectiveness, they can also fill their heads and pretend to be good.

In addition, Sun Ce also ordered Lu Xun, who led 7,000 soldiers and horses to monitor the Shanyue people, and also rushed to Jianye City to help in the battle.

Although Shanyue surrendered Sun Ce, there were more than 300,000 Dingkou, and the number was huge, so Sun Ce naturally did not dare to completely rest assured of them, so he promoted Lu Xun, a wise general, and led 5,000 soldiers and horses to monitor the area around Wu County.

At this time, Sun Ce couldn't care about the Shanyue people, and all available soldiers and horses had to give priority to defending Jianye.

While Sun Ce was drawing troops and horses from all over the country, he also issued a royal order to the gentry and powerful in Jianye City, wanting to forcibly recruit their soldiers to enrich Jianye's garrison.

Although the heroes of Wu have suffered the blows of Sun Ce back then, but after years of recuperation, their strength has recovered a lot, if the heroes in the city really contribute, Sun Ce can at least piece together nearly 5,000 elite soldiers and horses.

It's a pity that Sun Ce's good wishes were ruthlessly disrupted by the potter.

The reason is that the "Letter to the Military and Civilian Records of Jianye".

It was this inscription written by Lu Su himself, which aroused the old hatred of the powerful people in Wuzhong against Sun Ce, and the threatening words made them afraid of the power of the pottery merchants, and they were afraid to help Sun Ce.

Under all kinds of considerations, the heroes in Jianye City did not dare to help Sun Ce, and refused to donate their private soldiers to Sun Ce for various reasons.

It is precisely because of this that Sun Ce's royal decree was issued for many days, but the powerful only offered less than 800 private soldiers, most of whom were old, weak, sick and disabled weak soldiers.

The main hall of the royal palace.

Sun Ce looked at the "Letter to Jianye Military and Civilian" in his hand, his handsome face was distorted and deformed, burning with deep hatred, so hated that his eyes almost burst out.

"Lu Su, you traitor, I want to kill you, I want to kill you-"

Sun Ce roared and scolded, tore the text in his hand to shreds in a few strokes, and threw it angrily to the bottom of the stairs.

Enraged, Sun Ce tore the silk book in his hand to shreds like crazy, and then threw it all over the ground.

"Tao thief, you traitor, do you think that you have the help of Lu Su, a traitor, and with this text, you can incite the people of this king to betray this king, the joke is ridiculous!"

Sun Ce roared and scolded in the direction of the temple gate, as if the potter was standing there.

The attendants on the left and right were all afraid to say a word.

At this time, footsteps sounded outside the hall, but it was Zhou Yu, Zhang Zhao, and Pang Tong who walked in.

Looking at the debris everywhere, the three of them looked at each other and understood something.

Pang Tong smiled and said with relief: "The pottery thief is really ridiculous, it is really ridiculous to want to break our people's morale just based on the nonsense of a traitor." ”

Pang Tong's words made Sun Ce's expression improve slightly, and his anger gradually subsided.

At this time, Zhou Yu took a light breath and took the opportunity to say: "King, the weight of Jianye lies in the stone city in the west, where it must be the main direction of attack of the pottery thief, and the minister asks the king to allocate another 10,000 soldiers and horses to the minister, and the minister will concentrate 15,000 soldiers and horses, and he will be able to hold the stone city." ”

Zhou Yu didn't mention the increase in troops, as soon as he opened his mouth, Sun Ce couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, and asked in a deep voice: "Zhou Gongjin, last time this king gave you 20,000 soldiers and horses, you couldn't hold Niuzhu, and now you want this king to give you more troops, this king wants to ask, do you have the confidence to hold Shicheng?" ”

Sun Ce was indeed dizzy, and his words were actually questioning Zhou Yu's ability and complaining about his Niu Zhu's defeat.

After so many years, Sun Ce trusts Zhou Yu so much, like a brother, when has he ever said such a heavy thing.

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Yu's body trembled violently, and his face suddenly showed shame, and there was even a pain in his heart that he was cut by a knife.

Niu Zhu was defeated before, Zhou Yu did blame himself, and after returning to Beijing, he apologized to Sun Ce, claiming that he was not capable of defending Jianye, and asked Sun Ce not to choose merit.

Sun Cexin naturally complained about Zhou Yu, but at present, the generals have been killed and injured, Han Dang Cheng Pu and other veterans were all killed by pottery merchants, although several children of the Sun family have talents, but they are all young and young, not enough to take on heavy responsibilities, looking at the generals, only Zhou Yu has this talent as a commander.

Sun Ce had no choice, he only comforted Zhou Yu a few words at that time, but still asked Zhou Yu to take on the heavy responsibility.

Unexpectedly, he was dizzy with anger today, and he was angry for a while, so he didn't give Zhou Yu face, and openly complained about Zhou Yu.

As soon as the words came out, Sun Ce realized that he had hurt Zhou Yu's heart, and he regretted it a little, but he didn't know how to take it back, and he didn't hurt his face.

Zhou Yu looked embarrassed, standing there, ashamed and sad, and didn't know what to do for a while.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhao put on a shelf of old seniority, and also educated: "Gongjin, you are really, I won't talk about Niu Zhu's defeat, but look at what kind of person Lu Su you recommended, not to mention betraying the king, but daring to openly write this so-called essay to slander the king, it's true." ”

Zhang Zhao is also considered an old qualification in Wu State, but Sun Ce only respects him and does not reuse him, but he relies on a young man like Zhou Yu as a pillar, Zhang Zhao sees it in his eyes, and he has long been jealous of Zhou Yu.

At this time, seeing that Zhou Yu was resented by Sun Ce, he didn't want to think about it, so he naturally stood up and kicked two feet.

Which pot is he not open, as soon as he said this, Sun Ce's anger that had just calmed down was ignited again in the blink of an eye.

Sun Ce immediately jumped up, pointed at Zhou Yu and complained: "Zhou Gongjin, Zhou Gongjin, you swore that Lu Su was recommended to this king, saying that he was your friend or Wang Zuozhicai, and this king just listened to your recommendation and reused him, but look at what good things he has done now!" Is this the Wang Zuo talent you recommended to this king!? ”

In the face of Zhang Zhao's fall into the well, in the face of Sun Ce's rebuke and complaints, Zhou Yu was both sad and ashamed, and then thought of Lu Su's betrayal, he was even more angry.

Suddenly, Zhou Yu only felt a sharp pain in his chest, opened his mouth and spurted out a mouthful of blood, his body shook a few times, and he fell to the ground.
