Chapter 752 : Chapter Three hundred and seventy-two full of bad water (2)
Some people looked at Sun Ce doubtfully and did not take Lu Su seriously at all.
"I don't want to say any more if it's superfluous. Just think of ways to deal with Lu Su." Sun Ce did not answer when he heard this, but said.
Similar words were said by Cheng Pu at the beginning. As a result, Cheng Pu himself is now involved. This is the consequence of not paying attention to Lu Su. This time, Sun Ce was cruel and wanted to kill Lu Su first.
.
What should we do? [
Sun Ce's words stumped many civil servants and generals. To deal with Lu Su? One against three is not enough, so what else is there to deal with?
Is it possible to raise troops again and confront Lu Su head-on?
"Wu Hou, in order to deal with Lu Su together, there are two urgent tasks now. One is to contact the other princes, Liu, Cao Cao, and Zhang Lu. The second thing is for Wu Hou to return to Jiangdong immediately and make peace first.
To overcome the shock of Cheng Gong’s death in battle and to preserve Jiangdong’s foundation. These two things are very important, especially
That's the second thing. If Jiangdong cannot be stabilized, it will be difficult to use external troops." Zhang Zhao said to Sun Ce, and then Zhang Zhao said: "As for how to deal with Lu Su, I have a plan in mind. However,
The premise is that only with the cooperation of the four parties can Lu Su be trapped to death."
"Zi Bu, tell me quickly." Sun Ce's eyes lit up when he heard this and he said.
To be honest, after Lu Su fought one against three, Sun Ce's confidence in defeating Lu Su in the war dropped by half. Although now there is another force beside Lu Su, Zhang Lu.
But the ones who can really fight are his Jiangdong soldiers and Cao Ren's northern elites. The forces of Liu and Zhang Lu can only wave flags and shout from the side.
Lu Su lost with one against three, but with one against four, they might not lose. Another point, as Zhang Zhao said, Cheng Pu's death was an absolute earthquake for Jiangdong.
Sun Ce, the Marquis of Wu, had to lead Huang Gai, Han Dang and other powerful generals back to Jiangdong to quell possible shocks. There was no time to send troops.
Even if there is a chance to send troops, it will be a few months later. By that time, Lu Su had already developed and made Xinye, Shangyong, Nanxiang, and Xiangyang counties impregnable.
Then how to fight?
Therefore, it is best to come up with some strategy in the middle to make Lu Su anxious and delay it for a while, allowing him to stabilize Jiangdong and restore a certain amount of vitality.
This strategy was the hope, but Sun Ce couldn't figure it out himself. He was a natural strategist, but he was definitely not a qualified conspirator.
"Wu Hou thinks about it, where are the four counties of Xinye, Shangyong, Xiangyang and Nanxiang where Lu Su is located? It is the place of the Four Battles. It is a coincidence that there are four princes who are enemies of him. To say this
It is already very difficult to contain a large area from other places. For example, he can produce grains and minerals by himself. But there is one thing that is not available in Xinye and Xiangyang. This kind of thing is unparalleled in the world.
There are only two places where it is abundant."
Zhang Zhao said with a smile, maybe because of his confidence, Zhang Zhao even sold himself to a small official.
"What is so important? And there are only two places in the world where it is abundant?"
"Yeah, I've never heard of it."
Suddenly, many of the civil servants and generals in the hall expressed doubts.
Only Zhuge Jin and a few others were thoughtful. Could this be true?
"What on earth is this thing? Is it so powerful?" Sun Ce was also surprised and asked.[
"This is salt. The only places in the world where salt is produced are the seaside and Shu. However, Xinye, Xiangyang and other places occupied by Lu Su do not produce salt at all. This salt is just like food. If you can eat it in large quantities,
If you eat some salt, it will be skinny and bones at best, so it won’t be a big deal. But if you can’t eat salt, something bad will happen.”
Zhang Zhao finally came up with such a desperate plan.
The city occupied by Lu Su was surrounded by enemies on all sides and did not produce salt. As long as the four princes sent their troops to the door of Lu Su's home, business transactions would be stopped.
If the people and soldiers under Lu Su's tent were deprived of salt for a long time, the consequences can be imagined.
