Volume 1 Chapter 441 The Art of War (I)

At night, the full moon peeks out halfway above the eastern horizon, and its soft silver glow shines over the earth, staining it with a faint halo in the deep darkness.

Looking from the hill of the independent battalion, the north is the silver belt of the Yellow River meandering, and the south is a continuous camp tent that stretches for 30 miles, each battalion is indispensable to the bonfire on duty, the tents that have not yet slept are lit up, and thousands of lights are hidden under the large area of ghostly water and spiritual fog, and the stars are shallow in the water, reflecting the bright Milky Way in the deep sky.

Ye Qing lowered his head and looked down at the battlefield in front of him.

The red light of the battle illuminated the western half of the sky, and the offensive continued.

For large-scale wars, Ye Qing has a simple but very crucial experience, that is, even if he has an army of 500,000, the troops he commands at a time should not exceed 100,000 - if there are not too many people, try to use them as effectively as possible, and even want to use only 50,000 troops each time.

But it is necessary to maintain a continuous attack.

Ye Qing watched for a while, looked back and saw Guo Jia and Xu Youcai coming back from inspection, and came over to watch from the side.

I saw that under the night, "boom boom" endlessly, there were potholes on the city, even if there was no leaf fire thunder, but there were thousands of stone bullets attacking several sections of the city wall, the huge kinetic energy impact dwarfed many spells, and what was more insidious was that occasionally there would be a few leaf fire thunder mixed in it, which could not be prevented, and exploded in the dense enemy formation, forcing the enemy Taoist priest to have to be online all the way.

Even the city wall collapsed and breached several times, filling the flesh and blood in the fierce tug-of-war, and was urgently shaped by the Taiping Dao real people with Taoism......

When the war is in danger, I can't take care of it, and as far as the habits of the foreign land are concerned, people are also a material after death, so they are mixed with the filled earth and wood materials that are carried up and rebuilt on the spot, but these places look almost white bone walls, and the yin qi lingers, no matter which soldier sees it, his heart is cold, who wants to be this kind of wall building material?

"Lord, is this what you mean by total containment?" Guo Jia looked at it and asked.

Ye Qing heard the "um", stood on his feet and thought about it, and decided to educate these two important ministers and strategists again.

There is no doubt about the cleverness of these two men, but the theory is tempered.

"This question, to consider it holistically, I will first talk about talent. ”

"Talent lies in discovery, in cultivation, I have said this truth, the importance of non-commissioned officers, I have also said, but I am afraid that you have understood the wrong way. ”

Xu You glanced at Guo Jia, but saw that his face was expressionless, so he stepped forward and smiled for a long time: "The minister is indeed a little puzzled, and I ask the lord to make it clear." ”

Ye Qing said with a smile: "Don't talk about excavating this, the key to the word nourishment is raising." ”

Speaking of this, Ye Qingchang became a god and said: "The world seems to have a steady stream of talents, known as a hundred rivers entering the sea, so some people don't care about talents, in a word-without Butcher Li, don't you eat pigs?"

"But in fact, no matter which country or dynasty, there are only two waves of talents."

"Lord, I don't dare to agree with what you said, there are so many talents in the world, and the stars are like the sea, how can there be only two batches?" asked Xu You.

"This is raising, one group is in the court, and one group is in the people, this is not a quibble. Seeing the looks of the two, Ye Qing waved his hand: "The court is supported by the court, there is no doubt about it, the people also have families, and public opinion supports them." ”

"The third batch has no position, there is no position, how can they become talents, even if they become talents, do they let talents become soldiers and traffickers?"

"Don't dream, there are direct favors in the court, and indirect favors in the opposition - you don't have any favors, even if there are talents, they will cry to the corner, resentment is indispensable, and even more so, they will take refuge in the enemy country. ”

"It's the same in the army, I have repeatedly transferred troops into battle, and it is in this battle that I have honed my skills, and I hope to become a group of elite divisions that can be used. ”

"That's a batch. ”

"And in the county, only the brave and brave people are selected as the county soldiers, but the number is not large. ”

Speaking of this, Ye Qing couldn't help but sigh when he saw that everyone seemed to understand or not.

According to the theory of a certain dynasty, this is the advanced elements at the local and grassroots levels, and they can still exert their combat effectiveness by supplementing them and cooperating with the original backbones, and even because the elements that are actively approaching each other rush even more fiercely for the sake of performance.

But there is a grassroots system, and there is only one wave of advanced elements, not a multi-wave stream as the public thinks.

Because advanced elements are actually given a future, a treatment, an honor, a hope, and a train

You can't have a second wave

The honor given by everyone is iron

All of them are advanced, and advanced is

There is no possibility of three waves of flow

To put it bluntly, compared with the White Army, a certain army is essentially - there is a wave of a certain army, which is composed of activists

And the White Army did not

Therefore, a certain army suffered great losses, even more than the White Army, but it had two waves, and immediately another wave made up for it, and the White Army was an elite division, and he was still a wave, and it collapsed after holding on to the maximum, as simple as that

In this way, the difference in strategy determines the victory

Only when the original advanced elements are on top and their positions at the grassroots level are vacated can they continue to cultivate, and it will take time to re-cultivate

Ye Qing believes that although the combat effectiveness of a certain army is effective in terms of training, training, etc., it is only an elite in the ordinary sense

The secret of invincibility lies in the activists cultivated at the grassroots level

When the first wave of losses is huge, new activists enter and continue to maintain full fighting spirit, and the last straw can crush the cattle, not to mention that these two waves usually lead to victory

And the Han system died with strength and remained strong until its demise, that is, it alluded to the system of these two waves, but this cannot be said explicitly

Ye Qing pointed to this Guancheng and said: "The way of the art of war, the specific thing is nothing more than to destroy the sharp with the strong, or the sharp to destroy the strong, it depends on the heart and ear."

Movement warfare and guerrilla warfare will be known to all generations in later generations, but there is no one in ten thousand who can understand the art of war.

"Ten to attack one, five to one, Sun Tzu's Art of War, all those who have read it know the Tao of Lu, but why do people have a large army, but they are defeated?"

"The mystery of the art of war, the world is difficult to know" Ye Qing gradually surfaced a sneer, but he didn't say anything, anyway, the hint has already been hinted, and those who really understand it will understand.

gradually smiled gloomily and said: "Actually, even if there is no arrangement behind it, just now, this tiger prison can't last for ten days-Xu You"

"The Minister"

Ye Qing pointed to the bone-ridden city wall and said: "Although the Xiliang army is a traitor, but the soldiers who died in battle are innocent, the thief army uses the bones of the soldiers killed in battle to shape the city, it is really a great crime, and it is crazy. ”

"The minister understands that he should immediately arrange to deal with the Xiliang army, spread this righteous word, and arouse hatred. Xu You's eyes lit up, and he immediately said aloud.

When everyone in the world pays attention to what happens after death, and the people are no exception, this is indeed madness.

At this moment, a gallop came, reached the front, turned over and dismounted, and knelt forward, handing a letter.

"My lord, Tiger Prison has asked for a truce in order to collect the corpses. ”

"Refuse, tell the other party, either surrender, or die, and be buried by us, and we will bury it with military honors, and never let your army be a wilderness. ”

This refusal is a secret that was not passed on in a certain dynasty back then, and those who don't understand it will never understand it.

After Ye Qing finished saying this, he squinted and smiled, in his eyes, there was actually no need for publicity, the morale of the Xiliang Army was obviously declining.

Especially at the difficult time when the first half of the buildings in the castle were destroyed by the stone bullets that rolled down the castle, and they could only camp in the ruins.

Since the afternoon, when the Xiliang soldiers were taking turns to defend on the wall, they all saw the dozens of feet of towering arrow towers pushed up by the coalition forces, hundreds of squatting in front of the city, and the continuous crossbow arrows shot at each other like a rainstorm of arrows on the city, and they attacked and defended with various spells, and the whole scene was gorgeous and bloody.

The huge group of stone-throwing machines used up the oil tanks, and several waves of concentrated fire broke through the wall to directly push forward, regardless of the damage and close shooting, extending the depth of the stone bomb attack to three miles in the city, and almost half of the buildings in the city were washed.

If it weren't for the fact that Guancheng was seven miles deep into the canyon, if it weren't for the fact that the turmoil like the earthquake had finally disappeared, the soldiers would not be able to sleep well...... Or that I can't sleep well.

In order to stabilize the morale of the troops below, at the suggestion of the Taoist priests in the foreign lands, the school officers convened one tent after another to publicize that "the coalition forces want to fail in one day's attempt" and "the damage of the catapult is useless", in order to offset the huge casualties caused by the fire mines, oil tanks, and stone bullets caused by the catapult group - the casualties alone are already one percent, and then counting the damage of the arrow array, the damage of the previous night attack is close to the critical point of twenty percent.

At this time, it was still possible to encourage the soldiers to hold on for ten days, but it had already made the soldiers tired of the war, and they were disgusted with these old arguments, but they did not dare to say it because of the strict military orders.

After I went back, I didn't dare to talk, but muttered in my dream: "It's all nonsense......"

"How long does it take to keep the fuck?"

"Ah......h

After all, it is not a rogue without military discipline, and after the aura of the lower soil is flourishing and the sorcerer regiment is connected to all levels of communication, the organization of the regular army is almost comparable to the army of the industrial age, and it is not easy to bomb the camp.

"Do you hear that?" the envoy Zhenren opened his eyes, although he arranged to suppress it, he smiled a little bitterly: "I can't stand a small scene, these soldiers are really useless......

If Ye Qing is here, he will definitely spray him in the face, he doesn't understand the mystery, and he also said that the earth soldiers are unbearable, after the subtle influence of the Heavenly Dao of the Earth World, these earth soldiers are actually generally stronger than the earth elite, and they are even better than this, only robots.

Liu Zhenren was speechless about this, and there was still one that could be seen - Dong Zhuo's 5,000 pro-army was fierce enough, but more than half of them were Qiang soldiers, who were good at field warfare but not good at defending the city.

The envoy Zhenren did not expect this kind of problem to be solved, and thought about it and sent a message to the Taoist priests everywhere: "Liu Bei likes night attacks the most, and he is mentally prepared for battle at night...... Several real people take turns to command, supervise the situation, and rest as much as possible to recover mana......"

Speaking of this, everyone smiled bitterly, and they already understood part of Liu Bei's intentions.

In such a situation, I am afraid that within a few days, it will collapse, and when I look at it with my spiritual eyes, I can see that the entire Guancheng is shrouded in a gray and black atmosphere.

This is a harbinger of great evil
