Chapter 743: Killing Decision
Zhou Yu stared at Sun Xingxing, his eyes were kind, but in the depths of his eyes, there was a fierce 'color'.
The people of Nanchang City are instigated, and there must be a promoter behind the scenes.
The person in front of him may be the pusher.
At this moment, countless people's eyes converged on the old man.
Under the watchful eyes of all the people, Sun Xingxing was not afraid of Zhou Yu, and said: "The governor of the capital, the little old man is from Nanchang, and he has lived in Nanchang for generations. ”
"Xiao Lao'er's two sons and one eldest grandson all died on the battlefield. ”
"Xiao Lao'er's daughter-in-law's 'wife' died of depression after learning that her husband had died. This battle has been fought until now, and Xiao Lao'er doesn't know whether to fight or not. ”
"It's just that Xiao Lao'er knows one thing, that is, there is no food at home. ”
"If you don't have food, how can you support it?"
"No one can live, so what is there to fight in this battle?"
Sun Xingxing saluted and said: "Governor, please, think about us little people, don't fight anymore." Moreover, we have no food to eat, and we are short of food, so we implore the Metropolitan Governor to open the warehouse and release grain to help the people who have no food. ”
As soon as these words came out, they were immediately supported by hundreds of people.
Although Wu has been trying its best to develop in recent years, it also has a certain foundation.
However, food in Wu is still tight.
Especially ordinary people, life is even more difficult.
In the history of the state of Wu, because Liu Bei and Cao Pi were difficult to destroy the state of Wu independently, plus Sun Quan left and right, and possessed Jingzhou and 'Jiao' Prefecture, there was abundant food.
However, the current state of Wu has only the land of Jiangdong.
Jingzhou is in Liu Xiu's hands, and 'Jiao' Prefecture is also in Liu Xiu's hands.
At the same time, both Jingzhou and Jiaozhou posed a threat to Wu, causing Wu to have to increase his troops to defend.
Sun Quan's power is much worse than in history.
When Zhou Yu heard Sun Sheng's words, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, as the governor of Wu State, he naturally knew the situation of Wu State.
Especially Nanchang City, as the front line, is even more difficult.
However, Zhou Yu is still extremely calm.
Zhou Yu looked at Sun Xing and said, "Uncle, what you mean, what the villagers mean, the official is already clear." I want to say something to you, and I hope the villagers can listen to what the official has to say. ”
Sun said: "The Governor of the capital, please speak!"
At this time, Sun Xingxing was vigilant in his heart, and he was actually a little afraid of Zhou Yu in his heart.
The Governor of Wu State, that is the existence of ten thousand people under one person.
In addition to Sun Quan, Zhou Yu is the largest.
Zhou Yu turned to look at the three hundred soldiers behind him and ordered, "Put down your weapons and take off your armor and clothes." ”
"Whoa!"
Three hundred soldiers replied neatly.
One by one, the soldiers put down their weapons, then took off their outer armor first, and then prepared to take off their inner clothes.
This scene fell in the eyes of the people outside the camp, and they were all stunned.
What does that mean?
How did Zhou Yu get the soldiers to take off their armor and clothes?
Everyone's eyes were curious, but because of the majesty of the soldiers just now, no one interrupted, and everyone watched quietly.
In a moment, the three hundred soldiers took off their shirts and were naked.
At this moment, hundreds of people's eyes widened, and there was a shocked look on their faces.
Including Sun Xingxing, when he saw the soldier's naked upper body, he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and there was a look of shock on his face.
Among these three hundred soldiers.
The thirty soldiers in the front row, each of whom had scars on the upper half of his body.
The scars are like traces.
This is true of everyone, not one or two scars, but dozens, large and small all over the soldiers.
From this, it can be seen that it is tragic.
Zhou Yu waved his hand at the three hundred soldiers and said loudly: "See? Every soldier has so many scars on his body, and every soldier has been injured big and small. ”
"Where did their injuries come from? ”
"In the decades of fighting with the Chu State, countless sons and daughters of the Wu State have died, and these three hundred people are the only ones who survived. ”
"Once, they were teenagers in their prime, and now they are middle-aged. ”
"Once, they were clean and there was not a single scar. Today, it's already covered with scars. ”
"They have left so many scars and countless blood, can they be willing?"
Zhou Yu talked eloquently, he looked at Sun Sheng, and said, "Uncle Sun, your son and grandson died on the battlefield, and this official is very heartbroken. Similarly, the family members of countless villagers present also died on the battlefield. ”
"Since the 'war' with the Chu State, they have all died on the battlefield. ”
"Now you have to give up fighting with the Chu State, are they all dying in vain?"
"Don't you want my Wu Guoerlang's 'life' and hatred?"
"No, this official is not reconciled. ”
"The sons and daughters of Wu Guo, they are going with the idea of defending their homeland, making meritorious contributions, and keeping their wives and children and parents safe. ”
"And yet, they died!"
"Their enmity is remembered in their hearts. ”
"If you don't break the Chu State, you will not give up. ”
"If you don't take revenge, you won't give up!"
Zhou Yu clenched his fists and swung them heavily in the air. His eyes swept over the outside of the camp, and he saw that the people outside the camp were all silent, and there were sad expressions on their faces.
Until now, hundreds of people have died on the battlefield.
Hatred has long been engraved in my heart.
If you don't take revenge, how can you be willing?
Zhou Yu's words hit the softest place in the hearts of the people and shook the people.
They came to ask for a strike, but after listening to Zhou Yu's words, they were all moved by Zhou Yu, and they all thought about their dead relatives.
A sense of sorrow permeated the hearts of the people.
A spirit of hatred arose among the people.
Sun Xing's eyes rolled slightly, and he also admired Zhou Yu's words, and said: "The words of the Metropolitan Governor, the little old man also agrees." No revenge, no rest. The hatred of the old and decrepit children and grandchildren cannot be abandoned. It's just that there is no food, what will the people do? Many people in Nanchang City have no food to eat. ”
The absence of food is key.
Sun Xing's words directly diluted the atmosphere of hatred and hatred just now.
The people wanted revenge, but they were hungry.
If you don't have enough to eat, how can you resist it?
Sun Province also said: "Governor, the army must have grain, can you open a warehouse to release grain to relieve the people in the city." If the people don't have anything to eat, and Liu Xiu doesn't come to attack, it will be difficult for us to resist. ”
Zhou Yu listened to Sun Xing's words, and his heart was slightly cold.
He was sure that the old man in front of him was the person arranged by the Chu State.
Otherwise, Sun Province would not be entangled to death.
Zhou Yu's face was calm, his eyes were solemn, and he said again: "The situation that Old Master Sun said, the governor of Pontus already understands. ”
"Regarding grain, the governor of Pontus has already sent people to Wu County to ask the king of Wu to allocate grain. ”
"Soon, there will be food delivered. ”
"In fact, the food in the army is already in short supply. ”
"The soldiers under the command of this officer, the non-combat auxiliaries support one meal a day, and the combat soldiers have two meals a day. However, they are still holding on, because the 'engagement' war with the state of Chu has just begun. ”
"Folks, please be considerate. ”
"Wait for a while, once the grain arrives, the official will open a warehouse to release the grain. ”
Zhou Yu gave a promise in front of the people.
The people came with great momentum, and it was difficult to appease the people without making promises to the people.
