Han Xiang

Chapter 182 Sun Ce, you really deserve to die

"So what?"

"My lord doesn't know that although there are few defenders in Hefei, their popularity is very high. It is easier to attack Guangling if you attack Hefei, but if you send away the soldiers who attacked Guangling"

Before Zhang Zhao finished his analysis, he suddenly stood up and said excitedly, "Long Xiang has a very simple way to boost morale. Why don't you follow suit, my lord?"

"Huh? Zibu tell me quickly."

Seeing Zhang Zhao's agitation, Sun Ce immediately became interested, but Zhang Zhao played it off.

He cupped his hands and replied, "Deng Dang knows best about this matter, you'd better call him to see him."

"okay."

Sun Ce then summoned Deng Dang to learn more about 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 the effect of uniting people's hearts. This kind of good thing can't be exclusive to him."

Zhang Zhao cupped his hands and said, "The army is resting in Dantu at this time, my lord can have a monument erected in the city of Dantu, so that the soldiers can pay tribute to their comrades. It will definitely boost morale."

Sun Ce frowned and shook his head: "Longxiang's heroic stele is not only for soldiers to mourn, ordinary people also pay homage to their relatives. I plan to erect a stele in every county, starting with Wujun."

"My lord is wise."

"The lord is wise"

Deng Dang clasped his fists first to compliment, Zhang Zhao and Yu Fan were forced to follow.

Sun Cede was in a good mood, pointing to Deng Dang and said: "You have participated in erecting the monument in Hefei, and the monument in Wu County will be handed over to you for supervision. After I come down, I will explain to Taishou Zhu, and ask him to use the people, materials and land for the monument. Just do it."

"Thank you, Lord, for your trust." Deng Dang clasped his fists sonorously.

"The general has endured hardships for Jiangdong, how can I not trust my own people? I will host a banquet tonight for you to wash away the dust."

Sun Ce seized the opportunity to buy people's hearts, and Deng Dang was almost moved to tears. After he took the order and left, Zhang Zhao stood up and gave his advice again.

"Setting up a stele to unite people's hearts is just a way. I think Zhongmou has a rough belly and is unsmiling, but he is more than calm but not strong enough. His personality is quite different from yours. He may not be suitable for conquering territories, but Shubi (Sun Yi) Quite the air of a lord"

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

Sun Ce frowned in affirmation, stroked his beard and added: "Today I will clean up the dust for Deng Dang, and tomorrow I will take Uncle Bi to Dantu to prepare for the battle. I am sure about Guangling County."

"My lord is wise."

"My lord is wise."

This time Zhang Zhao complimented him first, which made Yu Fan a little slower. He planned to divination first when he went out in the future, so as not to be so passive like today.

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

Before leaving the city, a group of people passed the monument construction site specially and asked Deng Dang to build the monument according to the standards higher than Hefei.

After defeating Chen Deng, Sun Ce will bring the Jiangdong futures to pay homage to the stele.

The lord Sun Ce personally intervened, the prefect Zhu Zhi personally paid attention, and the construction site was in the core of Wu County.

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

"What is this going to build?"

"It is said that General Sun wants to erect a monument for someone."

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

"Good thing."

"No, no, I heard that not only the families of soldiers and soldiers, but ordinary people can also express their condolences."

"The graves of our people are in the local area, so there is no need to come here?"

"Shh, there are not only locals from Jiangdong, but a lot of them have moved from the north. The graves of their relatives are not in Wu."

"Yes, yes, especially Lujiang and Jiangxia"

The onlookers were chattering and discussing, some praised it, and some felt that it was a waste of money and money, but they dared not speak nonsense;
There were also people who left without a smile on their face after watching it, but their hearts were full of hatred, such as Yan Baihu, Xu Gong and other remnants of the party who were wiped out by Sun Ce.

It was night, in a mansion in the northwest of Wu County, a young scholar was holding a bamboo slip in his hand, and was looking at it intently.

Suddenly a gust of wind poured in from outside the door, causing the candles in the room to dodge in shock.

The scholar raised his head and saw the visitor, he quickly put down the bamboo slips and greeted him.

"It's so late, what is Xiaoze (Gu Shao) doing here?"

"The spring is just right these days. Brother Zhang and I have made an appointment to go boating on the lake tomorrow. I thought it would be boring for two people to swim together, so I came here to invite you and uncle to go together. Shall we go together?"

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

"No? Even if you are the head of the clan, don't forget that I am the same age as me. You are only 17 years old now. Don't always look old-fashioned. I will come to invite you in person. Don't reject the door so quickly and even drool. none of them"

Seeing Gu Shao's teasing and teasing, Lu Yi smiled and asked him to sit down, and personally carried the pot to pour water for him, expressing emotion while pouring out:
"My situation is different from Xiao Ze. You have a father and elders who can rely on you to be carefree. I shoulder the burden of the Lu family and have to take care of my uncle. I am not as knowledgeable as you. If I waste my time to play, won't I be inactive forever? I am ashamed of the trust of the clan.”

"You, you, life is too hard." Gu Shao shook his head regretfully.

Lu Yi sighed bitterly: "Whether it's hard work or not, it's all my fate."

"It's really boring."

Gu Shao took a sip from the bowl, then stood up and walked towards the door: "Anyway, the boat for the lake tour is ready, I will come again tomorrow morning, let you think about it for another night."

Lu Yi shook his head lightly after hearing this, and when he was about to reach for the scroll, Gu Shao suddenly stopped by 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 mansion, planning to build a tower and monument there."

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

Gu Shao replied calmly: "It is said that a monument will be erected to commemorate the soldiers who died in the Jiangdong battle."

Lu Yi snorted coldly: "It's just a way to buy people's hearts. Either Zhang Zhao or Qin Song offered advice, but it's really very clever."

"You guessed wrong this time. I heard that it was a copy of Hefei's Hefei Monument. Deng was a prisoner for several months and it was not in vain."

"The Monument of Heroes?"

Seeing Lu Yi's curious face, Gu Shao came back and explained: "Hefei was originally a deserted city, formed by refugees from all over the world, and also repelled the attacks of Zheng Bao and Sun Bofu. Long Xiang recently erected a hero monument to commemorate The soldiers who died in Hefei also gave the refugees a place to pay homage to their relatives far away, and it is said that the effect of uniting people's hearts is particularly good."

"This Long Xiang is not simple." Lu Yi nodded solemnly.

Gu Shao echoed and said: "I heard that after Chu general Long Qie, Sun Ce has nothing to do with him. Deng Dang redeemed him with grain."

Lu Yi said to himself: "The same opponents, Liu Xun of Lujiang and Longxiang of Hefei, will be judged against each other."

"By the way, I heard that the monument in our city can also be used by the common people to pay homage to it. The Lu family suffered a disaster in Lujiang, do you want to go there then?"

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

"Then think about it carefully at night. There is no conflict between going boating on the lake and reading a book. I'll come back tomorrow morning."

"Um"

Lu Yi sent Gu Shao out of the mansion with the slip in his hand, and when he came back, he let go of his fist and put the slip on the table, only to find that he squeezed too hard just now, and the threads on several bamboo slices were broken.

Looking at the dark night outside, although Lu Yi's face was calm, his heart was rolling like waves.

Lu Yi had a good impression of Long Xiang, simply because Long Xiang made Sun Ce feel embarrassed, and wondered why the flying stone that hit China and South Korea didn't hit Sun Ce on the head?Let this guy be so crazy that he erects a monument to taunt the victim.

Sun Ce, you really deserve to die.
