Looking at Shuzi in front of him, Shi Bao continued to persuade him earnestly:

"Lu Xun used a tactic of suspicion!

His purpose was to make the soldiers and generals in the city have panic thoughts in their hearts.

For all those who fight, military spirit comes first.

If Jie Fanbing's military morale wavers, then no matter how strong the defense of Yong'an City is, our army will not be able to defend Yong'an City no matter what.

The general's top priority is to summon the generals in the city and use his prestige to appease their hearts and minds."

"As long as people's hearts are as stone, no matter how many Wu troops Lu Xun mobilizes, they will not be able to easily shake Yong'an City."

Shi Bao believed that Lu Xun would bring many Wu troops this time.

And Shi Bao also knew why Lu Xun didn't order the army to attack Yong'an directly from the beginning, or quietly send surprise troops to attack Yong'an.

The underlying truth is not difficult to deduce.

Let's just say that we sent a surprise attack on Yong'an. At first glance, such an action seems to have a high possibility of success, but in fact, the risk of failure is very high.

After all, relying on a surprise attack, the Wu army captured Yong'an Ferry but did not prevent deserters from escaping back to Yong'an City to report the news to Han Zong.

When Han Zong first heard the news, he might have felt panicked at first, but subconsciously, his first reaction was most likely to close the city and resist.

Yong'an City's defenses are strong. If Han Zong holds on behind closed doors and wants to capture Yong'an directly with a small force without the support of siege equipment, there will be too much uncertainty.

And if the action of that surprise force fails, it will undoubtedly dampen the morale of our own side.

Lu Xun felt there was no need to take such a risk.

Anyway, Lu Xun had already deduced that Han Zong would be in a state of panic after learning of his arrival, so why didn't he continue to make arrangements based on this?

Before the army officially attacks Yong'an City, it is the best choice to use the tactic of doubting the enemy's strength to further increase the panic in the hearts of the Jiefan soldiers and turn this emotion into panic.

If Lu Xun led his army to attack Yong'an City as soon as the Wu army landed, Shi Bao wouldn't be too worried.

Because even though the Jiefan soldiers would be panicked at that time, when they saw the enemy coming, they would still subconsciously resist.

And as long as the Jiefan soldiers are willing to resist, then relying on the city defense of Yong'an City, the Wu army's attack will definitely suffer.

In this way, Jie Fanbing's heart will become calm invisibly.

But the important thing is that Lu Xun didn't do this, he was waiting.

When Jie Fanbing was under the influence of the Suspicion Soldier's plan, he kept thinking wildly. When Jie Fanbing saw that everything was covered with soldiers, he created a strong sense of depression in his heart that a storm was about to come.

Sometimes the dangers you imagine are often the most terrifying.

This sense of depression will further destabilize the morale of Jie Fanbing.

When Jie Fanbing's inner panic reached its peak due to his own random thoughts, a large number of Wu troops officially launched an attack on Yong'an. At that time, how much combat effectiveness did Jie Fanbing still have in the city?

The lack of military morale may result in the Jiefan soldiers being unable to even pick up weapons, let alone resist the Wu army's siege.

After understanding Lu Xun's intentions, even Shi Bao, who was an enemy, couldn't help but secretly admire Lu Xun's wisdom in his heart.

He actually saw a bit of Da Sima's demeanor in Lu Xun.

As for whether Shi Bao thinks his worries are unnecessary...

Glancing at the Jie Fan soldiers on the city wall, Shi Bao saw that the frightened expressions on many of their faces were getting thicker and thicker, and the hands holding weapons were also trembling. He knew that they were

The worries are by no means unnecessary.

Don’t forget, Yongan is currently an isolated city!

Living in an isolated city, people are prone to fear and uneasiness.

But what worries Shi Bao the most is not only Jie Fanbing's cowardice, but also Han Zong beside him.

Shi Bao knew very well that Lu Xun's trick of doubting soldiers could affect the morale of the army to a great extent, but as long as Han Zong, as the general, could stand up and appease people's hearts, Lu Xun's trick of doubting soldiers would be difficult to work.

But with Han Zong's current state, he had no intention of appeasing the military's morale.

Faced with Shi Bao's sincere advice, Han Zong remained indifferent.

He was waiting for the report from the scouts.

Not long after, Han Zong finally arrived.

When the scouts sent out came to Han Zong, his reply made Han Zong lose the last trace of delusion in his heart.

"A few miles away, tens of thousands of Wu troops are surrounding on three sides and coming towards Yong'an!"

Tens of thousands of Wu troops?

When Han Zong heard the news, his face turned pale instantly.

He glanced at the "Wu Army" scattered across the mountains and plains in the distance, and kept muttering absentmindedly:

"That's not fake! That's not fake!"

Originally, the Jiefan soldiers were on the verge of panic, but they saw Han Zong's helpless state, which made them even more at a loss what to do.

So at the next moment, a nest exploded on the Yong'an city wall.

"General, what should we do next?"

"General, why don't we escape?"

"General, the enemy is strong, we must not fight!"

...

Among the generals in Jiefan's army, some were as panicked as Han Zong, and some persuaded Han Zong to recognize the reality and run away.

After a brief period of noise, the remarks that caused Han Zong to run away finally took over the mainstream.

Didn’t the scout just say that?

Lu Xun was surrounded by three people but one was missing, leaving a small area for them to escape.

In this case, why are you still hesitating?

Listening to those remarks that made him run away, Han Zong was obviously moved.

He turned to Mi Yang because he was afraid of death, but now that Lu Xun was willing to give him a way out, there was no need for him to be ignorant of good and evil.

But just when Han Zong was about to adopt the generals' suggestions, a cold voice reached Han Zong's ears at the right time.

"If the general really follows the advice of others and chooses to abandon the city and flee, then the general's death will not be far away."

This sound sounded so harsh in Han Zong's ears. As we all know, he was most afraid of death.

And this sound also caused many Jiefan soldiers and generals to look at Shi Bao angrily.

This is exactly what Shi Bao said.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! At this time, even Han Zong's eyes when he looked at Shi Bao became unkind.

Shi Bao represents Mi Yang, but if he no longer chooses to be loyal to Mi Yang, then what respect can he have for Shi Bao?

Shi Bao, who was surrounded by many unkind eyes, did not feel panic.

He just continued: "Since the day when the general raised the city in uprising, the general has probably been on Sun Quan's must-kill list.

Does the general think that Lu Xun would choose to let the general live regardless of Sun Quan's face and anger?

Stop dreaming!"

In the first two sentences, Shi Bao's voice sounded quite gentle, but in the last sentence, Shi Bao almost shouted angrily.

He was really fed up with Han Zong's stupidity.

"Surrounded by three and missing one? The side that is not surrounded is your only way to survive?

I can tell you, quite the opposite!

The road that is not surrounded is covered with mountains and forests, which is suitable for ambushing a large number of enemy troops.

Once you escape through that road with illusions, you will die under the sword of Wu Jun."

Shi Bao's roar made the surrounding Jiefanbing generals feel clear for a moment.

But Shi Bao couldn't make the Jie Fanbing generals change their minds just by saying these words.

Because compared to Shi Bao's speculative words, it is an indisputable fact that tens of thousands of Wu troops are slowly surrounding them.

Of course Shi Bao also knew that his words could only temporarily dissuade the generals from escaping.

Then he said something bolder.

"Even if you can escape Yong'an City in the end, does this mean you are safe?

Have you forgotten why I came?"

When he said this, Shi Bao focused his gaze on Han Zong's face.

At this moment, Shi Bao's eyes were full of aggression.

"Da Sima entrusted his faith into your hands, but you chose to betray him and betray him.

Do you think hundreds of thousands of Han troops will bypass you?

Da Sima always hated people who abandoned him the most.
