The two armies are about to collide.

Suddenly, in the open field, the drumming stopped abruptly.

A mournful female voice caught the attention of the soldiers on both sides of the war, causing them to slow down.

"Pan, my son! Your wife is now an officer and soldier! Don't fight anymore, if you lose your knives and guns, the government will let you live! If you die, your mother and I won't live! ”

The old man next to Pan Shish glanced at him with pity: "You have been fucking arrested by the government, and you are still beaten!" ”

As he spoke, he dragged his sons and grandsons and quietly squeezed his family to the back of the line.

"Lao Tzu is Zhang Guangpei! The six masters of Niujiaozhai! Your big brother! ”

Pan's shit old lady was still crying loudly, but Zhang Guangpei had already raised her voice and shouted without showing weakness: "Lao Tzu voted for the government, there is food and drink, fragrant and spicy, the duck that was gnawed at noon today!" The prince is the reincarnation of a bodhisattva! He has already promised, as long as you put down your swords and guns, raise your hands and surrender, you are still Lao Tzu's brothers! ”

Who the six masters are, the new bandits who Pengshan joined may not know, but the old bandits who have joined Renshou are clear. That's the big housekeeper of the cottage, the brother of the big boss. He voted for the government, which means that the old nest of Niujiaozhai was ended, and all the family members who stayed in Niujiaozhai were arrested by the government.

There are more Renshou bandits under the third and fourth children, close to thirty percent of the total, and these old bandits are all big and small leaders in the team. As soon as their pace slowed, the offensive momentum of the entire team slowed down.

With the appearance of Pan Ma and Zhang Guangpei successively, Zhu Pingjin's selected 100 bandits joined the chorus. They shouted the names of their loved ones, told them how much they missed their loved ones, and how affectionately the government cared for them. But in a noisy cry, it was Pan Ma's voice that was the most unique. Her unique long and melodious voice, like a lyrical Mongolian tune, circles gracefully above the battlefield.

"Well, it works! But it didn't work out well enough! Add more fire! ”

Seeing that the arrogance of the bandits subsided, Zhu Pingjin smiled and ran towards He Qiukou, the commander of the sixth company not far away.

After receiving the order of the prince, He Qiukou personally ran to mobilize the soldiers.

I saw the soldiers of the Sixth Company standing still and taking a deep breath of air. Seeing the company commander slash his hand, his voice burst out together:

"Pan shit! Your mom called you home for dinner! ”

The sudden explosion of sound swept across the entire battlefield. not only dwarfed the voices of Zhang Guangpei, Pan Ma and many bandit relatives and friends, but also silenced the members of the squire and virtuous battle viewing group who had been talking about it.

The sound also shattered the little fighting spirit that Pan shit had left.

The furious voice of the three masters came from behind. Pan shit is not a fool, he painstakingly sharpens his head and drills forward, now the more in front the safer. Compared to the career prospects of the bandits, saving a small life is the first priority.

The sound also inspired the bandits to think differently. In the morning, I drank a thin meal by the river, walked for most of the day, and still haven't eaten. As soon as Zhang Guangpei's duck flew out, the bandits all felt the hunger in their stomachs.

"Fuck, do you still want to go to the government? As long as you catch the person wearing red clothes in front, you are the founding heroes of the cottage! What do you want...... Shout to Lao Tzu, catch the son, and reward a thousand taels of silver! Ten mothers-in-law! ”

Why do bandits sell their lives? It's not money and women yet. Chen Huaigui, the third master, saw that the army's heart was about to disperse, and in a hurry, he remembered the tricks taught by Chen Huainian, "Shout loudly, catch the prince, and reward a thousand taels of silver!" Ten mothers-in-law! Be sure to overpower the officers and soldiers! ”

The soldiers around Chen Huaigui shouted one by one. But your words, his words, to the thousands of bandits in front of them, are just a noisy noise. Compared to the earth-shattering effect of the caravan, it is a world of difference. Chen Huaigui was so angry that he wanted to kill, but the soldiers around him were all children of his Chen family, and it was not easy to kill.

Shouting is shouting that you can't win, and Chen Huainian's tricks are not everywhere. Chen Huaigui admitted defeat in his heart. If you fight with the officials and soldiers again, I'm afraid that if you can't wait for a moment, the team will all collapse.

"Follow Lao Tzu Chong! Those who don't rush die! Chen Huaigui showed his big knife.

This sentence was not only shouted to his subordinates, but also to Chen Huaigui himself. He has been a bandit for more than 20 years, and he knows that the moment of hand-to-hand combat is the most dangerous. Whoever dares to fight with his life at the moment of lightning is often the final winner; Whoever has the slightest hesitation and timidity is someone else's ghost!

The third master, Chen Huaigui, strengthened his belief in death. He yelled: "Lao Tzu is here to take the lead!" ”

A few pro-soldiers struggled to cut away the men who were blocking the way, allowing Chen Huaigui to rush to the front of the team. But at this moment, a childish crying child's voice once again shattered Chen Huaigui's determination:

"Third uncle! Fourth uncle! If you don't surrender, the government will cut off my skull! ”

"We are surrounded by officers and soldiers!" I don't know who was in the back team and shouted in a panic. The sound of horses' hooves rumbled, as if to confirm the sound.

"Run!" Seeing the opportunity, Pan Dog Poop threw the firewood knife that was in the way, rushed out of the team, and ran towards the caravan. It's just that the heavy grain bag is still firmly straddled on his shoulder, and he is not willing to throw it away at all.

This is often the case in the world: when one person takes the lead, the rest of the people cry and shout to follow, and it becomes out of control. Sociologists explain that human beings are social creatures, and individual behavior has a universal herd nature. The power of example is infinite precisely because of this.

Pan shit is a role model. He fled in full view of everyone, and thousands of bandits instantly exploded and ran in all directions. However, the 2nd and 3rd companies on the right flank of the caravan had already outflanked from the left flank. The front and left are spears like a forest, the back is the iron hooves rolling, the right is the surging river, the whole iron wall is encircled, where can you run out?

Song Zhenzong saw the bandits frying the pot and knew that he had won. He let out a sigh of relief and ordered the companies on the front line to hold the line. A gap was opened between the second and third companies, allowing the bandits who had abandoned their weapons and surrendered to pass through the gap, and the sixth company escorted them to the riverside to be fenced.

Chen Huaigui stood still, with only a few pro-soldiers left around him.

"Defeated! Defeated! He muttered to himself. When he was a teenager, he followed his brother to the grass, and his career as a bandit for more than 20 years ended in a blink of an eye. Two days ago, he was talking about the mother-in-law of Chengdu Mansion in high spirits, and now it has become a dream.

"Third brother, let's descend!" The voice of the fourth elder Chen Huaijin came quickly.

"I will bring you down. Our Chen Village is all finished. Lao Tzu's family is all in Chen Village, and Lao Tzu doesn't want to live alone in the world! ”

"What's wrong with Chen Village? Third brother, how do you know? ”

"Lao Tzu has been listening just now, whether there are people from Chen Village who surrender, but I didn't hear any of them. Since the officers and soldiers have defeated Chen Village, how can they not bring people out to recruit surrender? There is only one possibility, our Chen Village is dead. ”

"What about my nephew?"

"The second brother is not dead, and the officers and soldiers will keep their nephews and continue to surrender." Chen Huaigui smiled bitterly and put the sharp blade across his neck, "Brother, go over quickly, your wife and baby are calling you again." Brother, we'll see you in the next life! ”

The most combat-ready unit of the Niujiaozhai bandits suddenly collapsed in an unexpected way under the witness of Zhu Pingjin and all the officers, soldiers, and squires on the battlefield.

The bandits did not shoot an arrow, did not cut a single knife, and under the double squeeze of their own military spirit and the military oppression of officers and soldiers, they laid down their weapons in the way designed by Zhu Pingjin.

The third leader, Chen Huaigui, and several die-hard soldiers killed themselves, and the fourth Chen Huaijin led his troops to surrender. The officers and soldiers were cheering, the bandits were frustrated, and the group of spectators was shocked, while the group of relatives and friends was already carrying buckets of cooked rice to warmly welcome the safe return of Jin Buchang.

In Zhu Pingjin's previous life, Sichuan and western Hunan and Hubei were the areas where banditry was most rampant in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China. The struggle against bandits has lasted for many years and has paid a huge price. In order to thoroughly eradicate the bandits entrenched in the deep mountains and old forests, the People's Liberation Army (PLA) once launched a tremendous "shouting campaign" and used the relatives of the bandits to shout under the bandits, dividing and shaking the bandits, and achieved tremendous results. Zhu Pingjin studied this history in the D school of the Sichuan S Committee, and also heard about the Longmen array in the Chengdu teahouse, so he learned from it and used it to be fried and sold, and the effect was really good.

Victory and defeat are clear in the blink of an eye.

Liu Hongting's attitude towards Zhu Pingjin has also changed dramatically, from respect to worship.

She once pursued the sense of accomplishment that victory on the battlefield brought to herself, and liked the sense of security that the sonorous sword brought to her. When she first entered the battlefield, she once imagined a tragic battle: broken military flags, lonely military horses, and dying soldiers......

She even imagined what choice she would make if the bandits surrounded her, with thousands of swords, guns, and halberds pointed at her, and a lewd* expression on her face. At this point, she had to admit that even dying in a terrible or even humiliating way, like her father, was an acceptable relief.

But the easy victory in front of her greatly exceeded her expectations.

"300,000 people were disarmed, and none of them were men!"

Mrs. Blossom's poem is just right to use here.

"What do you think? Concentrate on the battlefield! You are now a staff officer, and your role is to provide decision-making advice and basis for the commander-in-chief's command. Our main battlefield goal has not yet been achieved, and we must know what to do next at all times! ”

Zhu Pingjin saw Liu Hongting's thoughtful appearance, thinking that she was thinking of spring on the battlefield, so he reprimanded her softly.

"Bandits don't lose in weapons and armor, nor in organization and training! The fundamental reason for their failure is that they have no ideals and no faith!

Strict military discipline alone does not guarantee the absolute loyalty of the army, nor does it guarantee that the soldiers' orders and prohibitions are carried out. A person's behavior can only be truly driven or restrained by the power that comes out of his heart, and can burst out with great energy! This is the gap between passive and active, spontaneous and conscious!

Speaking of this, Zhu Pingjin's tone changed from heavy to slow:

"Mr. Shu is your superior and has the main responsibility for the ideological construction of the army. In the future, you should take the initiative to report your thoughts to her! Only when the armed forces are unified in their thinking can they be unified in their actions. We're still far from where we are, and there's still a lot to do! ”

Zhu Pingjin gave Liu Hongting the opportunity to get close to Shu Guoping, so it was clearly a reprimand, but it was actually a green light. Liu Hongting, who is very smart, understood when she heard it.

However, Zhu Pingjin did not simply give them the opportunity to fall in love, it was with a task. Therefore, Liu Hongting's understanding is that it is okay to play friends and fall in love, and the task must be completed well. What is an ideal and what is a faith, these two terms that she doesn't understand, she decided to discuss it with Shu Guoping. She readily agreed to Zhu Pingjin and helped Song Zhenzong with his work.

The main task of the next step was cavalry. They will use high-speed assaults to storm the bandits' ranks on the north bank of the Min River during the march, break up the bandits' organized resistance, and then coordinate with the infantry to clear or pursue them in pieces.

The prince has already issued an order to kill the bandit leader Zhang Guangzu without interrogation, and hand over the head to Fubiao.

Why is this order issued, wouldn't it be more beautiful to catch a big live person and parade it in the streets? The officers of the caravan had secretly guessed that it was because the prince and Lord Futai had established some kind of tacit understanding.

They guessed well, just incomplete.
