Volume 2 The Death of the Yellow Turban Chapter 84 The Rules of War

"War is an art! Tactics are actually a kind of creation, which allows us to use our imagination to the extreme, so we can formulate different combat methods for different situations of friend and foe......"

"General, can I interrupt you? The last general was given the task of delaying the enemy, and although you are reluctant to give you a clear indication of how to fight, at least hint at it! ”

"Then Ben will make it clear! At present, a large number of supplies are being transported all the way back to the east under the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, although they are like arrows, but there are so many mountains and rivers and scenic spots along the way, as an accompanying escort of our army, should we try our best to keep it? ”

"The Admiral understands! But if the generals wreaked havoc on roads and bridges, would it lead to the impeachment of the magistrates? Also, will it arouse the disgust of the people? ”

"We are soldiers, we only know how to fight and win battles! As for local affairs, do they have anything to do with us? As for the people, it's even simpler, splash all the dirty water on the heads of the enemy! Isn't that your forte? ”

"Yes! The last general commands! ”

A Han cavalry drove out quickly, and they used their high-speed maneuverability to make a big circle, directly appeared in front of the Yellow Turban Army, which stretched for ten miles, and began to spare no effort to destroy the Yellow Turban Army along the way where it must retreat.

Families were evacuated to distant places, and rats could starve to death in empty huts; A well was filled in, and if time was pressing, a large bag of sea salt was simply poured in, and in the scorching summer of July, if any unlucky man accidentally drank a belly of salt water, it was really not human.

All the bridges along the way were torn down, and the nearby trees were either cut down or burned, and in some places they were so clean that not even a single plank could be found. Large sections of the leveled post road have also been destroyed beyond recognition, and the felled trees can be transferred to some dangerous areas as roadblocks, and it is not harmful to find the lot of trees and boulders, and the leader of the team, General Gao Feng, happened to have a wonderful experience on the Xiqiang grassland, so that he knew how to create obstacles on the flat land. As a result, the road for more than ten miles seems to have been eaten by hungry dogs, and there are holes of different depths dotted around, which makes people's scalp tingle when they look at it.

While conscientiously completing the task of sabotage, this Han army actually found time to launch a powerful political offensive on a wide scale. From their mouths, the upcoming Yellow Turban Army is said to be a kind of terrible beast army that can only appear in nightmares, ** burning, destroying houses and digging graves, eating people without spitting out bones, in short, doing all kinds of evil.

In the face of this Han army, which demolished the bridge and filled the well, but had strict military discipline, countless kind people almost chose unconditional trust, their faces changed color, their hearts were shocked, and their mouths were angry, but their hands flew up and down to cooperate with the destruction of the business. All of a sudden, the army and the people were like fish in water, and they shared the same hatred for the enemy, and the progress of the project was even faster and faster.

"The enemy lacks the ability to march quickly, and is so insatiable that they have brought hundreds of carts of grain, grass and money, and their defeat is almost foregone from the beginning, and once they succeed in delaying their advance, our army can calmly eat them!"

"What? Eat them? Does the general want to choose a dangerous pass to fight a war of annihilation? ”

"Ben said he was going to eat them in one bite? I could have eaten a cow, but I ate it day by day! ”

"The last general understands, the general wants to adopt the previous attack tactics that come and go like the wind, and slowly eat away at them!"

"Ben said that tactics are a kind of creation, so can you be a little imaginative? Don't just take the clichΓ©s of the past for cash! ”

"This, forgive the last general for being stupid, please give some hints to the general, how should you fight?"

"General Ma Jun, do you know what your own mission is?"

"Well, the military order only says that it is necessary to block the attack step by step, further delay the speed of the enemy army, and more importantly, try to break the morale of the enemy army and lay the foundation for the final destruction of the enemy army! But I didn't say anything about it! ”

"Isn't it your forte to let your imagination run wild? Wouldn't it be nice to light a few fires, knock down a few rocks, or even throw a hornet's nest at the enemy's ranks. ”

"The Admiral understands! I ask the general to send General Cao Xing to help me again! ”

"Please help you? Can you explain your reasoning? ”

"Hey, hey! General Cao Xing and his subordinates are all good at using arrows, and the last general plans to release a few more hidden arrows to assassinate enemy generals to disrupt their deployment and undermine their morale! ”

"Yes! You can say that again! It is indeed an inference! In a word, how can we make the enemy frightened and gnash their teeth, let's do it! ”

"The last general will go here, please rest assured!"

"Excellent! Stay safe! ”

Sometimes, a skillful craftsman can be a versatile general, and this statement is best illustrated by Ma Jun.

Just as the Yellow Turban Army was sweating and driving the chariots and horses, and the mud was deep in the mud on the bumpy and difficult post road, suddenly a few clay pots filled with fire oil flew in the distance, and exploded in the dense marching procession, and then several rockets drew elegant curves, burning the crowd for a while.

The steep cliffs on both sides have also become a terrifying death passage for the Yellow Turbans, because they don't know when a shower of stones will fall from the sky. Large cobblestones are easy to dodge, and the most terrifying thing is those fist-sized gravel, which often makes people unavoidable, so they have to close their eyes in despair, hold their heads in their hands, and sit back and see why the flowers are so red.

As for the night camp after a day of traveling, it was originally the most anticipated rest time for the Yellow Turban Army, but now it has also become the darkest time for the Yellow Turban Army to talk about the tiger's color. Every night, there are always a few unlucky people who will be wiped on the neck in a daze, or there will be a silent dark arrow flying from the night sky during the night patrol, accurately shooting down the human target holding a torch. As for walking in the middle of the night, it is even more common for the tent to suddenly catch fire and burn, and although the loss is not large, it makes everyone's heart feel like a rabbit, and they have to open one eye when they sleep.

One night, there were shouts of killing from all directions, and the generals of the Yellow Turban Army on duty were so shocked that they ordered all the men and horses to kill out of the camp, but they didn't even find a single hair of the Han army. Covered in a cold sweat and sleepy-eyed, the Yellow Turban Army had just fallen less than half an hour after returning to the tent, and the sound of killing outside the camp started again......

The consequences of this uninterrupted invasion were terrifying, and after only three days, almost all the Yellow Turbans were glazed over-eyed, their faces were obsessed, and their legs seemed to have drunk too much, and they were obviously a little disobedient.

"The general believes that the enemy must be in a good mood right now, and as long as we manage to serve some appetizers, this meal will be full of heat!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ General, forgive the last general for saying a faux pas, although our army has taken the lead, but the means used are a little difficult to get into the hall of elegance, after all, we are a dignified army of the Celestial Empire, do we also have to make a formal attack with a clear banner? Otherwise, the last general is worried that it will be difficult for the soldiers to maintain their sharp spirit! ”

"Alas! O Wentai! What you mean will be understood, in fact, this dignified remark of the Celestial Empire's army was also mentioned by Major General Huangfu not long ago, but in the end, it almost caused my 20,000 troops to die in the belly of the fish! ”

"General, you misunderstood! The Admiral just wanted to ......"

"Nope! Actually, what you said makes sense! Ben is trying to attack in a dignified manner! Where is Dian Wei? ”

"The end will be! Please give the order to the general! ”

"Ben will now order, and you will officially launch an attack on the enemy army!"

"No! Finally, I will go and gather the people! ”

"Is there nothing wrong with your ears? The general's military order is that it is up to you to attack the enemy army! ”

"What? General Lingdian attacked alone? Isn't this sending him to death? ”

"Nonsense, Dian Wei is a general's favorite general, how can he be sent to death? Enemy morale is now fluctuating, but it is far from the brink of collapse. So Ben will order you to ride alone to challenge the enemy general and hit the enemy's morale again! ”

"Great! Last time, that kid was about to fight the last general, but he was accidentally disrupted, and this time he will definitely smash him to a bloody five steps! ”

"Not bad! He owes you, and he owes Ben more! Go ahead and show the world how brave you are! ”

The whirring wind blew in gusts, which seemed to bring a touch of coolness to the scorching summer, but inside the field, thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers were as cold as ice, because just now, they had already been shocked from the bottom of their hearts.

The most famous number one general in the Yellow Turban Army, the undefeated young general, after fighting for dozens of rounds with the black-faced general who came to challenge him on a single horse, he finally ran out of strength and was knocked off his horse, and now he was sitting on the ground like dead ashes, his eyes were full of despair and humiliation.

Look at the age of the black-faced general, he is only a young man, although he is sturdy like an iron tower, he is born loyal and simple, like an ordinary country peasant. But at this time, no one dared to despise him, and the pair of black iron halberds in his hands.

The lonely summer breeze blew, he slowly raised his head, and looked at the distant place where heaven and earth meet, and a round of red sun gradually sank to the ground, which was the time when the remnant sun was like blood.

A look of loneliness flashed in his eyes, and he said softly, "Is it over so soon?" Could this be the strength of the first general of the Yellow Turban! ”

Gujing Wubo's indifferent words fell on the ears of all the Yellow Turban Army, but it was like five thunderbolts, and they all had a bleak feeling in their hearts. The young general of the Yellow Turban Army was even more shocked, and looked up at the Han general in disbelief.

The Han let out a long sigh that seemed to have been accumulated for many years, turned the horse's head, and slowly rode away against the remnant sun.

The young man in the yellow turban suddenly shouted: "This general is brave and brave, he must be the first fierce general of the Han army, and it is not unjust to be defeated in your hands, please leave your name!" ”

In the faint wind, there was a disdainful sneer: "What martial arts are the world? I wouldn't dare to be, and you didn't put gold on your face! This general is just an ordinary army Sima under the command of General Ying Yang Zhonglang, my name is Dian Wei! ”

As soon as these words came out, all the officers and men of the Yellow Turban Army changed color miserably.

"Is it just a military horse?" The young man in the yellow turban muttered, and suddenly he jumped up and shouted with all his might, "My name is Guan Hai! ”

In the distance, a man dressed in black and wearing a bamboo hat was watching from afar, and the wide sleeves of his robe were trembling slightly, reflecting the depression and shock in the man's heart. After a long time, the man also let out a long sigh, and under the reflection of the slanting sun, his helpless and lonely figure was dragged to the old elder.

After a few days, the morale of the Yellow Turban Army finally weakened, and all the officers and men were discouraged, and even groups of deserters appeared.

Fierce arguments also broke out among the Yellow Turban generals, and some people have pointed out sharply that the treasure of hundreds of carts is completely a burden that will plunge the army into a state of no return, and they should make up their minds to abandon it immediately and return to Qingzhou lightly and quickly.

More people are reluctant and unwilling, after all, there are only a few people who can face wealth and still have a clear mind, and in order to protect the huge interests that have been obtained, they do not hesitate to attack, resulting in the deepening contradictions between the two factions.

Only Mr. Zhi's heart was full of bitterness, because he knew that it was too late. Even if the strong man discarded the treasure now, the Han army would never allow them to return safely. On the contrary, if the large amount of grain, grass, and property that accompanied the team is now abandoned, it will further irritate the ordinary soldiers under them, and cause them to have a deep disappointment that they have gained nothing, then the already stormy army will immediately collapse, or even kill each other.

The treasure hunt that was originally intended to rise again has now become a suicide that may completely bury the Yellow Turban Army, but it is too late to regret it!

Just when the Yellow Turban Army felt sorry for themselves and the six gods had no owner, there was a young general in the Han army camp, who was putting his legs on the general's case regardless of his majesty, proudly humming a strange tune that everyone had never heard of, and his face was full of smugness in the success of the conspiracy.

He squinted at the general on the left, and smiled: "Wentai, how is it?" Are these difficult strategies still eye-catching? ”

The majestic and brave general smiled bitterly: "The last general is only now considered to be served!" The general has almost reached the realm of surrendering without a fight! ”

"But!" He finally couldn't help but say what was in his heart: "How did these strategic generals come up with it? Judging from the generals, these strategies are completely inconsistent with the laws of the battlefield, even more! ”

He secretly glanced at the general's expression, and then said softly: "It's even more out of line with the rules of war, Hugh said that the thief army is a battle-hardened general, but I'm afraid that it can't be prevented, and in the end it will only end up with hatred!" ”

"The rules of war?" The general sat up straight and said lightly: "Wentai Mo blames the general for being rude!" The biggest feature of the rules of war, do you understand? ”

"What's this?" The majestic and brave general muttered: "It should be to set up a banner, reconnoiter carefully, establish communications, march clearly, know the formation, be good at planning, and invite ghosts and gods to ......."

"You can stop!" The young general unceremoniously interrupted: "Ben will also be arrogant today, let's show off in front of the literary platform!" ”

"Oh? The last general is asking to teach! The majestic and brave general said happily: "Please give the general advice!" ”

"In the general's view, the battlefield is changing rapidly, and the way of war is even more cruel and changeable, as long as you keep your basic conscience and morality, you can attack the enemy by any means! So," he stretched out his hand and tapped lightly, and finally said the final word: "So, the rules of war are that there are no rules at all!" ”

PS: Three days of interruption, please take the blame! But please brothers, if you see that Bai Xue does have the difficulty of being a doppelganger, and she has a good attitude of admitting her guilt, don't slap her face!
