"How?"

"The lord doesn't know, although the defenders of Hefei are few, but the popularity is extremely high, it is easy to fight Guangling in Hefei, but if you transfer the troops to attack Guangling..."

Before Zhang Zhao finished his analysis, suddenly a spirit stood up and said excitedly, "Long Xiang has a very simple and good way to boost morale, why don't you follow suit?"

"Huh? Zibu speak quickly."

Seeing that Zhang Zhao was so excited, Sun Ce immediately became interested, but Zhang Zhao sold Guanzi.

I saw him arch his hand and replied, "Deng Dang knows this matter best, you had better summon him to see him."

"Hmm... Okay."

Sun Ce then summoned Deng Dang to give a detailed understanding of the situation in Hefei, and finally became interested in the Hero Monument.

"Long Xiang is quite clever, it doesn't cost much to build such a monument, but it can have a cohesive effect, this kind of good thing can't be enjoyed by him alone."

Zhang Zhao arched his hand and said: "The army is resting in Dantu at this time, and the lord can let people erect a monument in Dantu City, so that it is convenient for the soldiers to pay tribute to their comrades, and it will definitely boost their morale."

Sun Ce frowned and shook his head: "Long Xiang's heroic monument is not only for soldiers to mourn, but also for ordinary people to pay tribute to their relatives, I plan to erect a monument in each county office, starting from Wu County."

"The Lord is wise."

"Lord... The Lord is wise..."

Deng Dang took the lead in clenching his fists to compliment, and Zhang Zhao and Yu Fu were forced to follow.

Sun Ce was in a good mood about the method of raising morale, and pointed to Deng Dang and ordered: "You have participated in the erection of a monument in Hefei, and the monument in Wu County will be handed over to you for supervision.

"The last general thanks the lord for his trust." Deng Dang clenched his fists sonorously.

"The general has suffered for Jiangdong, how can I not believe in my own people? Tonight we will hold a feast for you to receive the wind and wash the dust."

Sun Ce seized the opportunity to buy people's hearts, Deng Dang was so moved that he almost cried, and after he received the order to leave, Zhang Zhao got up again and gave his advice.

"Erecting a monument to unite people's hearts is just a method, I see that Zhongmou has a furrow in his belly, and he is not smiling, but he is more than calm and not strong enough, and his personality is quite different, he may not be suitable for conquering and expanding the territory, but Shubi (Sun Yi) is quite a lord..."

"What Zibu said is very true, Zhongmou is indeed a little more restrained, and it is difficult to get along with the generals..."

Sun Ce frowned for affirmation, and added: "Today, I will take Deng Dang to pick up the wind and wash the dust, and tomorrow I will take Shubi to Dantu to prepare for the war, and I will still eat in Guangling County..."

"The Lord is wise."

"The Lord is wise."

Zhang Zhao complimented him this time, which made Yu turn over and slow down, and he was ready to go out in the future to make a divination first, so as not to be so passive as today.

The next morning, Sun Ce bid farewell to Mrs. Wu and rushed to Dantu with Sun Yi, Zhang Zhao and others.

Before leaving the city, the group passed by the monument site and instructed Deng Dang to build a monument according to a higher standard than Hefei.

After Sun Ce defeated Chen Deng, he took the Jiangdong Zhuli to pay respects in front of the monument.

The lord Sun Ce personally inquired, and Taishou Zhu Zhi personally paid attention to it, and the construction location was in the core of Wu County.

The monument project in Wu County soon aroused heated discussions among the people in the city.

"What is this going to build?"

"It's said that General Sun is going to erect a monument to someone."

"It's not for a certain person, it's for all the soldiers who died in battle, so that the soldiers' relatives have a place to mourn."

"That's a good thing."

"No, no, I heard that not only the families of the soldiers, but also the common people can mourn."

"Our people's graves are in the local area, so you don't need to come here, right?"

"Shhh, Jiangdong is not only locals, there are many people moving from the north one after another, and the graves of their relatives are not in Wu Land..."

"Yes, yes, especially Lujiang... And Jiang Xia..."

......

The onlookers chattered and discussed, some praised it, some felt that it was a waste of money in their hearts, but they didn't dare to talk nonsense;

There are also people who leave without smiling after reading it, inwardly

But they are full of hatred, such as Yan Baihu, Xu Gong and other remnants of the party who were exterminated by Sun Ce.

That night, in a mansion in the northwest of Wu County, a young scholar was holding a bamboo slip and was watching intently.

Suddenly, a robe of wind poured into the door, startling the candle flame in the room.

The scholar looked up and saw the comer, and hurriedly put down the bamboo slip and greeted him.

"It's so late, why is Xiao Ze (Gu Shao) here?"

"Recently, the spring is just right, I made an appointment with Brother Zhang to go boating on the lake tomorrow, thinking that it would be boring for the two of us to swim together, so I came here to invite you and my uncle to go together, can we?"

"Swimming in the lake? I'm not interested, you guys go play..."

"Isn't it? Even if you are the head of the family, don't forget that you are the same age as me, you are only seventeen years old at the moment, don't always look old-fashioned, I will come to the door in person, don't turn it away so quickly, don't even bring saliva..."

Seeing Gu Shao joking and teasing, Lu Yi smiled and invited him to sit down, personally carrying a pot to pour water for him, and sighed while pouring:

"I am in a different situation from filial piety, you have a father and elders to rely on to be carefree, I have to take care of Uncle Cong with the burden of the Lu family on my shoulders, and my knowledge is not as good as yours, and if you delay your years to play, won't you always be idle? I am ashamed to trust my people..."

"You, you, you're living too hard—" Gu Shao shook his head regretfully.

Lu Yi sighed bitterly: "It doesn't matter if it's hard, it's not hard, it's all my life..."

"It's boring."

Gu Shao took a sip of the bowl, then stood up and walked towards the door: "Anyway, the boat for swimming in the lake has been prepared, I will come again tomorrow morning, do you want to think about it for another night."

Lu Yi shook his head lightly after hearing this, and was about to reach out to get the scroll when Gu Shao suddenly stopped at the threshold.

"By the way, there is something new in the city today, Sun Ce asked Zhu Junli to enclose a small piece of land on the south side of the county capital, and planned to build a platform and erect a monument there."

"Build a monument? For whom? To Sun Wentai?" Lu Yi was very vigilant.

Gu Shao replied indifferently: "It is said that a monument will be erected to commemorate the soldiers who died fighting for Jiangdong."

Lu Yi snorted coldly: "It's just a means to buy people's hearts, it's either Zhang Zhao or Qin Song's plan, but it's really very clever..."

"You guessed wrong this time, I heard that it was a replica of the Hero Monument in Hefei, and Deng Dang's prisoner for a few months was not in vain..."

"Monument to Heroes?"

Seeing Lu Yi's curiosity, Gu Shao walked back and explained: "Hefei was originally a deserted city, formed by the gathering of displaced people from all over the world, and also repelled the attacks of Zheng Bao and Sun Bofu.

"This dragon is not simple." Lu Yi nodded solemnly.

Gu Shao echoed and said, "After hearing that it was Chu Jianglong, Sun Ce couldn't do anything about him at all, and Deng Dang was redeemed with grain."

Lu Yi said to himself: "The same opponent, Lujiang Liu Xun and Hefei Longxiang, make a judgment from above..."

"By the way, the monument in our city, I heard that the people can also pay tribute, the Lu family suffered in Lujiang back then, do you want to go then..."

"There is a mourning hall at home, so you don't have to go to the street to join in the fun, you can go home quickly..."

"Then you think about it at night, boating on the lake doesn't conflict with reading, I'll come back tomorrow morning..."

"Hmm..."

Lu Yi took the book slip in his hand and sent Gu Shao out of the house, and when he came back, he released his fist and put the book slip on the table, only to find that he had pinched it too hard just now, and the threads on a few bamboo pieces were broken.

Looking at the dark night outside, although Lu Yi's face was not rippling, his heart was rolling like a wave.

Lu Yi has a good impression of Long Xiang, just because Long Xiang made Sun Ce deflated, and said that when he hit Han Dang, the flying stone, why didn't he hit Sun Ce's head? Let this guy be so arrogant that he erects a monument to mock the victims.

Sun Ce, you really deserve to die.
