Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle
Chapter 440: Attacking the Heart and Burning the Letters
Upon hearing that he was assigned a task, Zhang He saluted quickly.
"My lord, I will obey your orders."
Liu Yu said slowly: "I heard that Ju Shou has great ambitions and is good at strategy. He is a rare talent. Jun Yi can take advantage of the moment when the soldiers attack Yuan's army to keep him. As long as Ju Shou can be kept, it will be a great achievement."
"My Lord, rest assured, I will definitely fulfill my mission!"
While the generals were organizing their troops, Liu Yu sent someone to the outside of Liyang City to inform Huang Gai to keep a close eye on the movements in Liyang City so that he could attack when they were in chaos.
When Liu Yu arrived at Yuan Shao's camp with 20,000 soldiers, he found that Yuan's camp was already littered with corpses.
At this time, Guan Yu came over and said, "When I led the troops here, Yuan's army was already in chaos. I ordered the soldiers to take advantage of the opportunity to attack and easily defeated them. Yuan Shao escaped by chance under the protection of the soldiers. Third brother has already led people to chase him."
Liu Yu nodded. This result was within his expectations, but he did not expect the process to be so fast.
It seems that the destruction of food and grass and Zhang He's escape were a fatal blow to Yuan Shao.
At this time, Guan Yu ordered his men to bring out several large boxes of letters and placed them in front of Liu Yu, saying, "Uncle, these are the letters we found in Yuan Shao's tent. Please have a look at them."
Liu Yu took a look and asked calmly, "What letter?"
Guan Yu replied: "Most of them are letters between officials in the court and Yuan Shao."
Liu Yu remained silent and paced slowly in the tent.
Guan Yu was secretly delighted when he saw Liu Yu's performance.
In life, loyalty and righteousness should come first.
The ministers serving in the court, who eat the Han salary and hold high positions, have no thought of serving the country. What is the difference between them and beasts?
These people have lost their loyalty and righteousness and do not deserve to live in this world.
At this point they should all be killed in order to restore the prestige of the Han Dynasty and deter those with ulterior motives.
Xu Chu said in a muffled voice: "My lord, don't worry. Give me these letters. I will lead the soldiers to capture the people and make sure that none of them can escape."
Although the other generals did not speak, most of them had the same mentality as Xu Chu.
Having secret dealings with the enemy during wartime is a serious crime in any era.
Even though Emperor Liu is known for his kindness, he probably won't let them go.
Guo Jia was secretly shocked. Judging from the mountain of letters in front of him, many people were involved. If not handled properly, it would cause internal unrest.
Faced with this emergency, even though Guo Jia was extremely intelligent, he could not come up with a solution immediately.
Liu Yu came back to his senses and said calmly: "Zhongkang, you must not do that. When Yuan Shao was so powerful, I still felt that I could not protect myself, let alone others.
Come, burn all these letters, and let this matter end here, and no one is allowed to mention it again."
Upon hearing Liu Yu's order, the soldiers put fire on the letter, and in an instant, flames rose into the sky and burned fiercely.
From the somewhat stunned expressions of the generals, it can be seen that Liu Yu's handling of the situation was beyond their expectations.
They looked at each other, not understanding what Liu Yu meant by doing this.
Only Guo Jia understood the meaning of it instantly. He smiled with his eyes and secretly cheered in his heart.
Wonderful, really wonderful! This move of the lord is really wonderful.
Although these letters were burned, they could make those who were disloyal become grateful and follow their lord wholeheartedly.
How many people in the world can accomplish such a psychological attack?
Zhang He was escorting Ju Su and waiting outside the tent. When he heard Liu Yu dealing with the letters, Ju Su instantly became interested.
Many of the contents of those letters were written by him, and he knew them very well.
Those so-called ministers in the court could be said to have no moral integrity. In their letters to Yuan Shao, they flattered Yuan Shao to the utmost on the one hand, and slandered Liu Yu to the utmost on the other.
In their words, Liu Yu was not a meritorious official of the Han Dynasty who was devoted to supporting the Han Dynasty, but a traitor who used the emperor to control the princes.
Some people even compared Liu Yu to Dong Zhuo in the past. Although he was not as cruel as Dong Zhuo, he was definitely more sinister.
If the Han Dynasty fell into the hands of Dong Zhuo, it might still be saved, but if it fell into the hands of Liu Yu, the Han Dynasty would be doomed and the country would be hopeless.
Ju Shou also knew that these contents were exaggerated too much and many of them were nonsense without any basis.
Although he despised the minister's despicable behavior, he couldn't resist Yuan Shao's liking for him!
If those ministers wanted to leave a good impression on Yuan Shao, they had to try their best to please him.
But things are unpredictable. Who could have thought that Yuan Shao, who had the advantage at the beginning, would be defeated inexplicably.
These letters were originally a stepping stone for their advancement, but now they have become their death warrant.
Ju Shou was certain that as long as Emperor Liu opened these letters and took a look at them, he would be shocked by the outrageous statements contained in them.
When the time comes, his butcher knife will naturally rise.
Once Liu Yu draws his knife, it will cause panic among the people and make them unstable.
At that time, Yuan Shao could take advantage of this rare opportunity to develop rapidly.
But Liu Yu's next action made Ju Shou's eyes widen. He never thought that Liu Yu could resist the temptation and not read the letters, but instead had them all burned.
This kind of mind and this kind of bearing, no one can surpass it in all the history books.
It seems that Yuan Shao’s defeat was not just due to his decision-making.
Zhang He saw the shock on Ju Shou's face, so he asked cautiously, "Ju Gong, Uncle Liu is broad-minded and respectful to the wise and humble. Ju Gong, aren't you moved at all?"
Ju Su looked at Zhang He with disdain and said coldly, "Zhang He, you are a coward. How dare you, a traitor like you, talk nonsense in front of me? I really regret that I tried my best to protect you in front of the lord that day."
Zhang He was scolded and felt embarrassed. He smiled and advised, "Buying the owner for glory? Lord Ju is too serious. The emperor's uncle has great ambitions and is a relative of the Han Dynasty. He is the emperor's uncle and the authentic Han Dynasty. We are all Han people. What's wrong with submitting to the emperor's uncle Liu?"
I am grateful for the love and care that Ju Gong has shown me. So at the beginning of the war, I went to find Ju Gong, just to make him follow the wise leader.
Lord Ju has a unique vision and extraordinary insight. Can't he see that Uncle Liu has already established victory in this battle, and Yuan Shao may have no chance of turning the tables? If Lord Ju comes to surrender at this time, he will not lose his title of nobility. "
Zhang He's words left Ju Shou speechless. Perhaps Zhang He's behavior made Ju Shou very disgusted, but even Ju Shou could not find fault with the meaning implied in Zhang He's words.
After a moment of silence, Ju Shou was helpless. He slowed down his tone and said slowly, "I have long since become indifferent to being made a marquis or a general. If you really care about our friendship, please let me go."
