Many people may not believe it, but it is a historical fact, in the history of Xia, Shang, and Zhou (including the Spring and Autumn Period and excluding the Warring States), the Chinese army needed to pray and pray before going to war.

The blessing ceremony is a ritual to worship ghosts and gods, and only those who have reached a certain status are qualified to preside over it, generally the kings of the nations.

The prayer is attended by all the soldiers of the army who participate in the battle, and the person who presides over the ceremony will be the chief general of the army. The prayer ceremony is a kind of war poem, and when the ceremony is held, the whole army basically kneels on one knee and raises their hands to the sky in a dedicated posture. The war poems they recited naturally did not have the "wonderful bonus" of combat effectiveness and defense plus five, but for the morale of the army, they could really achieve the goal of bonus.

In the original history, after the first emperor unified China, he burned the history books of the countries, so it is naturally impossible to verify what war poems the pre-war prayers of the countries recited, and it is certain that it must be one of the "Book of Songs". The war poems of the Qin army have been handed down......

The Book of Songs? Qin Feng? Unclothed

How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear. Enmity with the Son!

How can you say that you have no clothes? With the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear halberd. Work with the son!

How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my armor soldiers. Walk with the son!

There are many war poems in these years, each of which is a piece of history, and can also be regarded as the military song of the nations, and the singing tone is different for each country. For example, there is more than one song of "No Clothes", which is divided into "Qin Feng" and "Tang Feng", the so-called "Tang Feng" is actually the Jin Kingdom, because the predecessor of the Jin State is the Tang Kingdom, and the country name of the Tang State was changed to Jin after the expansion of the Tang Dynasty, so there is only "Tang Feng" and no "Jin Feng" in the "Book of Songs".

In fact, singing "Qin Feng" is not limited to the Qin State or the Qin people who fight without clothes and holding a blade, and the armies of other countries will also sing "The Book of Songs?" Qin Feng? No clothes", after all, this song "No Clothes" is the wealth of the race, and there is no patent on the premise. You don't have to pay to sing, and it's nice to have fun on certain occasions.

Lu Zhe likes militarism, and there have always been a lot of war poems in the army, and there are many poems that are not available in the Book of Poetry. Like what is "Men's Travel", it is the one that "men should kill, kill mercilessly", and the other two songs "No Clothes", compared to the unclothed in "Qin Feng", Lu Zhejun's soldiers prefer the one in "Tang Feng".

"National Style? Tang Feng? Unclothed

How can you say that you have no clothes, and you are seven? It's not as good as the clothes of the son. Peace!

How can you say that you have no clothes, six xi? It's not as good as the clothes of the son, it's safe and burning!

The two songs "No Clothes" are actually two concepts, Qin Feng's Wuyi is full of comradeship and desire to fight, but Tang (Jin) Feng's Wuyi is showing off that his wife has made a lot of clothes.

Anyone with a little bit of historical knowledge knows that the Jin State is a militaristic country, and the "seven" and "six" in the poem express a number. It is not meaningless for the soldiers to show off their clothes, they are proclaiming that they are very brave in battle, and they have received a lot of rewards from the lord for their outstanding performance on the battlefield, so they have enough wealth to buy cloth to make the "son" in "not as good as the clothes of the son". That is, the wife makes so many clothes.

Militarism needs a specific environment, that is, when it expands outward, all employees can obtain benefits, and not all benefits belong to the king, such as this and that martial emperor in history, why are they called "reckless soldiers". It's not that their behavior of fighting and expanding is wrong, it's that the benefits of foreign expansion have not been shared, and any wealth they get is owned by the emperor, and some high-ranking officials may be able to get some benefits. But what about the people...... Only bleeding has not been obtained, and some officials who are not of sufficient rank can only drool, so ......

Lu Zhe likes to give money to the whole people. Every time money is paid, the man who pays the money will be asked to explain why he is sending money, and he has won the war against foreign countries, so he will pay money.

The Qianshou who did not participate in the war can still get the war dividends, so where can the soldier Lu Zhe who participated in the war be treated badly?

Chen Shao was taking advantage of his spare time to answer many questions to the soldiers who asked, including the reward for winning this battle and the treatment after dying in battle.

In fact, the main reason is that the army has not been in force for a long time, and some systems have not been implemented for a long time, otherwise what kind of situation the soldiers will face and what will happen will basically form a system and practice, and there is no need to ask more.

The five hundred lords asked Chen Shao, and the hundred generals asked the five hundred masters, the tun chief, the chief of the staff, the chief of the army, and the soldiers...... After the announcements were made layer by layer, the faces of the 500 people who were about to go to battle showed relaxed expressions, and they did not look at all worried that the 500 people were going to attack the Chinese army who did not know how many enemies.

Lu Zhejun's treatment is not much, it should be said that it is quite good! The first military pay system has solved part of the income problem of the soldiers' families, they can not worry about the loss of their families as the main labor force, life is difficult, and in addition, about becoming a member of the standing army can get a fixed amount of heirloom acres, I don't know how many people to envy to death waiting to become a standing army men. In addition to fixed military salaries and acres of land, wartime meritorious service can also be rewarded by relying on military merits, not only can the worries of the living family be reduced (but also obtained), and there is also a set of pension system for those who die in war. On specific occasions, those who dare to die can have a special reward whether they survive or die in battle, as long as they clearly explain a series of "cause and effect", then what is the life!

"They're all athletes!" Tang Jie, who was extremely weak, looked at the soldiers in the twilight and sighed.

Zhou Dang didn't say anything, he usually died in battle, as a daring soldier who died in battle, he could get three times the pension, he was a soldier who ate food and didn't know when he would die, with such a generous mourning, he was naturally waiting to fight to the death.

"Actually, I'm afraid that the moment of death will come, so it's good to make it clear." What Tang Jie said was to inform the whole army of the battle situation, and clearly tell them about their current situation.

Zhou Dang still didn't understand much, after fighting hard for so many days in a row, low morale was already the status quo, not so one thing or two things could improve morale, he felt that the remaining 1,500 soldiers had become highly morale and fearless of dying in battle, but it was better to know that he was dying in battle to ensure that his family would not become difficult because of the loss of the main labor force...... It's useless to cry, it's better to be calm.

"The drum is beating, that's it...... The drum music of the Lord's military parade in Nanling! Tang Jie said too loudly, and his body was weak and coughed.

Drumming at a military parade? In fact, it is the war drums plus the Qin Zheng and the horn, which is a very complex set of music, which can never be played without at least a few months of rehearsals and drills, where can Lu Zhejun on the west bank play.

Zhou Dang didn't make corrections, and didn't even move his steps at all.

Sneak attack, Chen Shao is going to take 500 people to sneak attack, how can he make a big splash? It's not just a matter of informing the enemy that they are going to take action.

Tang Jie, who has handed over the command, is purely an emotional expression, and it is Zhou Kang who is really in charge.

Need to recite some battle poems? Yes, that's a kind of respect for those who dare to die.

If a race does not respect even the warriors who dare to fight to the death, even if the warriors are "paid" for their bravery, then there is little hope for such a race. Disrespect, ridicule and ridicule, such a race is waiting to perish!

Wearing Kaimingpan is not an immortal, and neither will the leaders of the various clans in Lingnan, they are coordinating which tribes will be the vanguard army after nightfall, and which tribes will be in what echelon of battle sequences, completely unaware that the Lu Zhe army, which is isolated by the river, has planned to take the initiative to counterattack.

Counting today, it is actually the eighth day, and Lu Zhejun has not done a single counterattack in these eight days, and this normalcy inevitably makes the leaders of the coalition forces, including Kaimingpan, think fixedly.

Their goal this time is very clear, that is, even if they fight until dawn, they will eat Lu Zhe's army on the west bank, and "point" a footnote for this military operation, and then they should turn around and enter the black primeval forest and retreat more than 100 miles, build a defense line on the west bank of the next river, and repeat the battle similar to the battle on the side of the water.

Because it was to launch a general attack, the military operation would also be participated by the troops of the Ou Kingdom, and they were extremely cautious, but they postponed the time to launch an attack that should have been launched in the past.

The movement of thousands of people is not small, and the movement of tens of thousands or tens of thousands of people before the battle is even greater, and the officers who originally suspected that Tang Jie said that the enemy army was going to launch a general attack tonight, they no longer had any doubts when they heard the movement in the forest.

The camp of Lu Zhe's army on the west bank was being reinforced, and they finally had the opportunity to show the "good show" of the Chinese army, which was also the most advantageous military skill, and obstacles such as horses, antlers, and thistles were arranged on the road that the enemy army would inevitably pass through, and in order to cover Chen Shao and others, they also launched an invasion.

The so-called invasion is naturally limited to seize a part of the forest position, and when the Tang family personally led the team, they were injured and became half-dead. With this invasion, there were a large number of bonfires in Lu Zhejun's camp, and the Lingnan tribes themselves were preparing for a general attack, but this invasion of Lu Zhejun's army did not attract much attention, and even the Lingnan tribes deliberately gave way to some areas in order not to interrupt their preparations for war.

In the final analysis, except for the army of the Ouyu State, which is regarded as a regular army, the armed forces of the various ethnic groups in Lingnan are just some rabble, and these rabble dare to fight for their lives, but it is impossible to be perfect in some military deployments and common sense.

Under the premise of the enemy's avoidance, the invading Lu Zhejun was in a dilemma, they needed a relatively fierce battle to make a reasonable cover for the 500 or so soldiers who did not return to the camp, and they did not fight much, and nearly 1,000 people only returned half, so wouldn't it be that the enemy army was blind and stupid?

"No matter what, it's an adventure in itself, just do what you have to do!" Chen Shao was really a brave person, and as soon as he gritted his teeth, he disappeared into the dense jungle with five hundred daring people...... (To be continued......)
