Chapter 0710: Intelligence Warfare, Psychological Warfare

The messenger looked at Du Ji and then at Cao Ren, and when he saw that the latter nodded, he continued: "He said...... Let the little one pretend to be a messenger and send a letter into the city, and he will treat my family well, even if the little one dies, and if there is a recurrence, all of them will be killed. The pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info said well in advance, who wants to be halfway, but the pursuers suddenly put down the arrows, if not, if not, if it is not ......"

I don't know whether he remembered that his family might be slaughtered, or he was afraid that Cao Ren would settle accounts, the more he spoke, the slower he became, his last breath stuck in his throat, coughed a few times, and then cried again.

Cao Ren ignored him, turned to Du Ji and asked, "Bohou, what do you think?" ”

"It should all be true." Du Yi nodded slowly, the evolution of the battle situation and the matter of fake letters were all expected by him and Cao Ren, which was reasonable and should not be fake. The reason why Li Yi killed all the messengers in the city is probably because he is afraid of the appearance of such a bad breed, or a loyal person who has a heart and disregards the safety of his family, but also wants to reveal the truth.

In fact, Li Yi's threat is not very terrible, as long as the messenger can be brought into the city safely, Li Yi is helpless, he can't kill all families because of trumped-up charges, right? In that case, he won't want to enter the Central Plains!

But for these children of the family, this threat is still very terrifying, even if it is liquidated afterwards, they can't help but worry. It's just that my own family is lucky enough to catch a bad seed and come in.

Du Yi said with a smile: "No matter how resourceful Zhuge Liang is, it is impossible to predict in advance that this person will be borrowed into the city alive by our army, which means ......"

"Not bad!" Cao Ren nodded heavily, his eyes falling on the fake letter.

Although the letter is fake, it can also obtain information from it, because the reverse of false information is often the truth!

After playing the conspiracy for so long, the enemy is finally still in a hundred secrets, and the moment the truth is revealed is in front of you!

At Cao Ren's suggestion, Du Ji picked up the letter, unfolded it, and immediately exclaimed, both surprised and happy in his voice.

"How?" Cao Ren leaned forward, his hands clenched into fists, extremely nervous.

"Zixiao, please look!" Du Yi smiled, spread out the letter, and explained leisurely, "Li Yi is poor, Ru Yi guessed well, his purpose is to ......"

Du Yi thought that he had a plan, and Cao Ren was tossed a lot, but they didn't know that in fact, the generals in Northern Xinjiang had always been in the fog, and they didn't know what their lords and military advisors were doing.

Fortunately, compared with Cao Ren, who can only explore on his own, the people in Northern Xinjiang will have the convenience of asking questions if they don't understand.

At first, Li Yi and Zhuge Liang pretended to be mysterious, and in the face of the generals' inquiries, they only said that the time was not enough, but today, when the third messenger was captured alive and entered the city, Li Yi finally relented, and this opening was out of control.

"It's said to be a conspiracy, but in fact, this is also a battle, an intelligence war!"

"It's all about controlling information!"

"Mount Tai and Jibei are densely populated, and our army is small, so it is difficult to achieve a thorough shield, which may be possible in a short time, but it is impossible to maintain it for a long time. If the blockade is imposed, then only efforts can be made to ensure the tightness of the blockade line. ”

"As long as the enemy makes any breakthrough, even if the results are extremely small, with the combined effect of wisdom and patience, it is possible that the enemy will find out the truth of the matter, so Ben will do the opposite, using a large amount of information that is both true and false, to completely confuse the enemy's general's thinking."

"Dispatch a large number of rangers, establish a visible blockade, so that the enemy does not have access to information that our troops do not want them to obtain; Passing on a large amount of false information to the enemy can also establish an invisible blockade line, and the enemy will not be able to obtain reliable information until the law of distinguishing the true from the false is found. ”

In fact, the key to the success of this strategy is to build on the foundation of the enemy's hard work to find this law, as long as he finds it, then his defeat is doomed. Recently, Kong Ming has planned a series of actions for this purpose. ”

Li Yi's voice fell, but there was no reaction under the account, this high-minded remark aroused the thinking of the generals, and even a straightforward person like Dian Wei showed a thoughtful look on his face.

From the Spring and Autumn Period to the present, there have been countless battlefields on the land of the Central Plains, and the tactics and strategies applied by famous generals are like stars in the sky, which are difficult to count.

Generally speaking, the role of disinformation is to confuse the enemy. Let the enemy do what you want, and be truthful. Li Yi's action seems to have followed this pattern in the early days.

But now, things have completely changed.

The first person to ask questions today is Dian Wei. Dian Wei is a relatively pure general, his attitude towards executing orders is very resolute, and he rarely expresses his opinions on strategy, and the reason why he can't help it today is because Li Yi's orders are too strange.

Before sending the messenger, Li Yi reminded Dian Wei to be careful of the ambush, and the latter solemnly agreed, saying that he swore to complete the task. Shoot the false messenger under the city and let the false messenger fall into the hands of the defenders. As a result, Li Yi shook his head. Tell him that the focus is on keeping his soldiers safe. The messenger or whatever, you can go with him.

At that time, Dian Wei was very moved, and felt that this kind of sympathetic to the soldier was really unprecedented, but after he came back, the more he pondered, the more wrong it became, the lord's sympathy for the soldier was true, but he didn't care whether the messenger was dead or alive.

Dian Wei is a sincere person, and he can't hide things in his stomach, so at the military meeting, he raised this question, which led to Li Yi's discussion on intelligence warfare.

Don't care about the false information that is discovered, can it have the desired effect?

Among the generals, there are quite a few people like Gao Shun, who never forget to learn new knowledge and pursue the highest mysteries of the art of war. For them, this so-called intelligence war, like a spring rain that came in time, aroused their strong thirst for knowledge. They didn't dare to be careless, and it was hard to say whether he would encounter the same situation as Cao Ren in the future. While trapped in the lonely city, he still retains the strength of a battle, in case the enemy besieging the city does the same, and uses similar tricks, he can't recklessly crash into it, there must be a way to break the game.

Gao Shun looked at Li Yi and asked, "In this way, the blockade carried out by our army earlier was also to create an illusion for the enemy general, making him think that the purpose of our army was not to let him get information, so he would try his best to obtain information?" ”

Being brave does not mean that he is unscrupulous, it is just his personal style, Gao Shun is not a reckless man who is brave and unscrupulous. After thinking about it for a moment, he quickly noticed some details that were very important but no one paid attention to.

"Not bad." Li Yi nodded approvingly, looked at Zhuge Liang, and motioned for the latter to continue.

This plan was proposed by him, but the details were handled by Zhuge Liang. Intelligence warfare is also psychological warfare, which is what Zhuge Liang is best at.

Someone once proposed the ten major psychological warfare of the Three Kingdoms, namely the Battle of Changbanpo, Guo Jia's plan to set Liaodong, Zhang Fei outwitted Wakou Pass, Zhuge Liang borrowed arrows from grass boats, Death Zhuge scared away Sheng Zhongda, Zhuge Liang planned to retreat Sima Yi in the empty city, Zhuge Liang reduced troops and added stoves, Zhuge Liang outwitted Hanzhong, LΓΌ Meng captured Jingzhou, and Zhuge Liang captured seven verticals and Meng Shu. Five of the top ten psychological battles were directed by Zhuge Liang. His title as the No. 1 psychological warfare master in the Three Kingdoms is definitely not running.

As a traveler in later generations, Li Yi can be regarded as a person who is better at grasping people's hearts, but he thinks that compared to Zhuge Liang, he is still very inferior in this regard.

Of course, he asked Zhuge Liang to be in charge of this matter, on the one hand, because Zhuge Liang was really good at this kind of thing, and on the other hand, he wanted Zhuge Liang to establish his prestige, after all, Zhuge Liang was the future chief military advisor set in Li Yi's heart. Now, the main strategists such as Xu Maogong, Liu Bowen and Jia Xu under Li Yi are all over forty years old and are gradually aging; Guo Jia and Xu Shu in the Mesozoic Era are in the prime of life, but the future is for young people like Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi.

Zhuge Liang laughed and said: "Cao Ren is a good general, even if the lord doesn't remind him, sooner or later he will realize the importance of this lone army in his hands." Therefore, even if the news of Changyi City was conveyed to him before our army's action, he would think twice. ”

The reason why Cao Ren fell into such a predicament today was because he made his own decisions and did not follow Cao Cao's instructions to stay in Taishan County to bluff, but took the initiative to march into the army in order to respond to the main battlefield.

This person does not blindly obey orders.

"It is very dangerous for him to get sufficient information and time to think, because even if our army gets Cao Cao's exact plan, no one can guarantee when, where, and what kind of actions Cao Ren will take, an unpredictable enemy, is quite terrifying."

"However, we can use the flow of information to guide his thinking, and since it is difficult for him to act according to the expectations of our army and step into the trap, then let him fall into complete chaos."

"Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent and not being defeated in a hundred battles is the criterion handed down by the soldier saint, and all those who use soldiers regard it as a golden rule, and Cao Ren is good at planning, so naturally he will not be an exception. Therefore, Liang followed the will of the lord, guided Cao Ren's train of thought, and asked him to work obtaining information and contacting the rear, step by step into the trap of the lord. ”

Zhuge Liang knew very well that his lord wanted to take the opportunity of the explanation to teach the generals in Northern Xinjiang a lesson and enhance their thinking ability, so that they could be independent in the future, so he told the story and explained it in detail.

"I see." Gao Shun nodded and agreed, "Cao Ren uses the usual mode of thinking, thinking that the master's plot is to guide him in a certain direction, so he will try his best to distinguish the truth and falsehood in the information and try to find the law." Unexpectedly, the original intention of the lord's design was to let him do this! ”

"Exactly." Zhuge Liang said with a smile, "He thought that the Lord Guild had set up a strange scheme, and he had been on guard against it, but as a result, his vigilance was exploited by the Lord Guild. By now, he should have been completely confused. (To be continued.) )
