Chapter 565: Zhao Yun's big class has started
Hearing Zhao Yun say that he was going to set fire to the grain, the summoned lords of the mountains immediately blew up.
That's grain and grass, not weed, what a pity to burn.
The lords of the mountains have long regarded the grain and grass of the Eastern Wu coalition army as their own things, and they are willing to burn it to the ground. Such a waste is damned.
In the face of the excitement of the crowd, they all said that they would never do it, Zhao Yun smiled faintly and calculated an account for the masters.
Is grain and grass worth more or is it worth captives?
The lords exchanged views in a low voice and reached a consensus. There's nothing to say about that. A captive is sent to Paradise City, and there is no pressure to exchange a hundred units of grain and grass. People clearly mark the price, Tong Su is not bullied, and everyone still has a price list in their hands.
Zhao Yun asked again, listing all kinds of data in detail.
At present, the Soochow coalition army is divided into 10 routes, and the total strength of the vanguard force is as high as 6 million. However, every day you raid and take away one hundred and eighty captives, and ten soldiers and horses take away one thousand eight hundred captives. In ten days, there were only 18,000 prisoners, and the casualties of the other side could not be taken away.
So here's the problem.
There are 6 million soldiers and horses, when are you going to catch them?
The lords looked at each other, hooked their fingers and counted them, but unfortunately they suffered a loss of no culture, and even their toes were counted and they didn't come up with a result.
Zhao Yun said that this is easy to calculate. According to the calculation of 10,000 prisoners every day, it will take a total of 600 days for 6 million soldiers and horses to be captured, and this is just that the other party is defenseless, and you are allowed to fiddle with it like a chicken. If people are prepared, it will be less efficient.
How long is 600 days?
There are finally smart people among the lords, and they immediately told the answer to the other lords. Knowing that it would take more than a year to capture these six million people, the lords were shocked.
No, absolutely not.
Finally, I encountered a big deal again, how could it take a year and a half to get it. There are tens of millions of soldiers and horses behind them. How can you let this big deal slip away from your eyes? The main financial route has been cut off, and everyone is under a lot of pressure.
At this time, Zhao Yun instilled the common sense that food is the foundation of the army, and told everyone not to be afraid, in fact, this is easy to solve.
It's like everyone living in the mountains. When there is food, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and develop and grow. If there is no food, not only will people starve to death, but it will also attract the covetousness of other mountains. Either die and be gone, or be swallowed up by your opponent.
Zhao Yun's in-depth explanation in simple terms immediately made everyone feel stunned.
Well, that's the reason.
In the past, before there was no financial road in Xanadu City, everyone was worried about their livelihood all day long, risking their lives to go into the mountains to hunt and maintain the life of the Yuli people. And once the bad luck is gone, the food in the mountain will be cut off, and it will immediately attract the coveting of other mountains.
After figuring out this layer, you all understand.
The same is true of the Soochow Coalition Army, which can be regarded as a super-large mountain. Now that people have food, they don't panic, and no one can get in. But once there is no food, people will panic. When people panic, there is an opportunity. At this time, if you take advantage of the situation to attack, you can take advantage of the chaos to take away a large number of prisoners.
Isn't that what people used to do?
Zhao Yun saw that the lords of the mountain were persuaded by themselves, and immediately instilled the essence of the sixteen-character guerrilla warfare of the enemy's advance and retreat, the enemy's stationing and disturbing me, the enemy's fatigue and my fight, and the enemy's retreat and chasing me.
That's what big business does.
After listening to the lecture, the lords immediately rushed back to plan. Zhao Yun watched them go away, and a trace of unbearability flashed in his eyes.
They're all simple people.
Recalling that before leaving, Lu Yao deliberately handed over the 16-character policy of guerrilla warfare to himself, Zhao Yun shook his head, but he was helpless. The enemy is outnumbered, even if he has the heart to turn the tide and shake the Eastern Wu coalition army, he is powerless. He is not afraid of dying on the battlefield, but he also does not want to miss the important affairs of the lord.
Zhao Yun cleaned up his emotions, immediately wrote a letter in person, and sent someone to send it to Ma Chao and other generals in the rear.
……
The lords of the various mountains attending the meeting learned guerrilla warfare from Zhao Yun, and they were like treasures. Big business can't forget about its allies. As a result, one passed to ten, and ten to hundreds, and the other mountains also learned guerrilla tactics.
That night, the 10th Route Army of the Dongwu Coalition Army was overwhelmed, and camped early and was closely armed. The whole camp was lit up like daylight by countless torches.
However, it is of no avail.
Under the cover of night, a group of Jiuli barbarians touched one of the coalition army camps under the cover of night, shot over the night guards with their hands and feet, touched the camp, and quickly found the location of the rear army where the grain and grass were stored.
In Zhao Yun's previous lecture, he deliberately pointed out where the grain and grass are usually stored. Everyone is a good student, and I remember it very well. However, the Eastern Wu coalition army was also wary of Jiuli barbarians coming to set fire to the grain, and laid out heavy troops.
However, it still didn't work.
The Jiuli barbarians, who were good at archery, lit rockets one after another, and a wave of rockets was overwhelming. The light of the fire alarmed the entire camp, but it was too late. The Jiuli Man who has been trained in the deep mountains and old forests all year round has an amazing rate of fire. By the time the camp moved, three waves of rockets had already been fired into the place where the rear army was storing food.
In an instant, the flames erupted. Truckloads of grain and grass were swallowed up by the flames. And taking advantage of this time, the Jiuli barbarians strictly implemented the four-character policy of the enemy stationing and disturbing us, and they had already secretly run away and flashed people.
When the fire was extinguished, the players counted one-tenth of the food and grass gone.
Everyone's hearts are cold. The savages stopped taking captives, but set fire to the grain. This is a big problem. In the face of the special forces, Jiuli Man was elusive, so he had to send heavy troops to guard the grain and grass. But in this way, how to march during the day.
The players were worried about arranging for soldiers and horses to guard the grain and grass, and then went back to rest. But as soon as the man lay down, the camp suddenly became noisy again. Everyone hurriedly got up to check, but it was noisy from the side of the Chinese army.
After careful interrogation, the players learned that another Jiuli man entered the camp at night, but instead of burning food, he took dozens of people away, set fire to it, and ran away.
The players were blindsided for a long time.
When did those barbarians become so cunning?
Prevent the grain and grass, and the front will be empty. Arrange heavy troops to defend the front? Then the whole army slept during the day and didn't hurry?
Oh my God, who the hell is so shameless to teach this trick to those energetic brutes.
Not only was this coalition army in pain, but the other Ninth Route coalition forces were also harassed, with more than a dozen waves of attacks in one night, either kidnapping people or setting fire to food, and everyone had a nervous breakdown.
Finally, at dawn, the Tenth Route Army made the same decision with a clear heart, and the whole army rested on the spot for a day.
However, Jiuli Barbarian tasted the sweetness and became more and more bold. Not only did they attack at night, but they even dared to send two cold arrows during the day. The coalition army sent troops to clear it and drill into the mountains, but there was no.
The ten-way Dongwu coalition army was overwhelmed and complained, and at this time, the coalition forces that were negligent in guarding did not notice that Zhao Yun, Mrs. Zhurong and other ten top generals each led 10,000 soldiers and horses to approach quietly.
