Chapter 169: Will Die a Miserable Death
With a battered heart and a watery and wounded body, Lu Bu went to find a bureaucratic force to rely on. On the other side, Zhao Zheng stomped his foot, he couldn't shoot Lu Bu, which was a pity.
Lu Bu thinks he is cunning and thinks he is deceitful, but in fact, Zhao Zheng doesn't think that he is such a person at all, on the contrary, he also thinks that he is the person with the most noble character and the most honest in the Fujiao Army!
Li Qin once told his subordinates again and again that whoever you believe cannot believe the enemy's words, the enemy's words are for your life, so you must never believe the enemy, and there is no need for you to tell the truth to the enemy, killing the enemy is the goal of the battle, in order to achieve this goal, it is natural to say a few lies to deceive the enemy, and it has nothing to do with whether a person is honest or not.
You can't deceive your own people, but if the enemy doesn't deceive, it won't be equivalent to treating the enemy as your own people, which is absolutely impossible!
Zhao Zheng didn't have a little psychological burden for deceiving Lu Bu, but thought that he had deceived him, and he hadn't killed Lu Bu yet, which was a pity. He stood on the shore for a moment, sighed, and then turned away and pursued the large army.
At this time, the sky was bright, Li Qin led the Fujiao army with a large force, began to pass through the Liangjie Mountain, in the march, a team of Fujiao soldiers ran to the Baogai Mountain, swept away the family money accumulated by Lu Bu, all received the auxiliary soldiers' carts, and then a fire burned the cottage, even if in the battle last night, there were minions who escaped and became fish that slipped through the net, when they came back, they would also become people with no village to return to, and they could only find another place to eat.
Li Qin was halfway through, and he had not yet left the Liangjie Mountain, but the Fujiao soldiers who had gone out to pursue all returned and reported the results to Li Qin. Li Qin nodded again and again when he listened, the Fujiao soldiers killed more than 100 minions and captured nearly 300 minions, and it is estimated that there are only a few dozen minions who have escaped, not more than 100.
Yuan Shao listened to the results of the battle, and said in surprise: "Li Lang, although I rarely lead troops to field battles, I know that many soldiers can't see at night and can't fight at night, but when I look at your horn soldiers, this rarely happens, the soldiers' eyes seem to be good, and the night battle is quite powerful, what is the trick in this?" ”
The soldiers of this era, no matter which nationality or state, many people have night blindness, even the Yulin Army in Luoyang, not only can not fight at night, but also is very prone to camp roaring at night, such as soldiers camping and sleeping in the field, but suddenly someone shouts loudly, then the soldiers are awakened, often follow the shouting, and it is very easy to hysteria, once the soldiers fight each other, then there will be uncontrollable cannibalism, this kind of killing will continue until dawn, and after dawn this army is basically abolished.
This situation often happens, which is not unusual, especially when a major war is about to start, and almost all generals have no effective way to solve it, so they can only force the soldiers to not speak at night, which is considered a helpless solution.
Yuan Shao saw that Li Qin's army did not have this situation, so he naturally wanted to ask, this was an absolutely good experience. Just imagine, two armies fighting, one can't fight at night, and the other can, so as long as the army that can fight at night sends people to disrupt the enemy camp, wouldn't it be a sure victory, such a good experience, of course he has to learn.
There are many reasons for soldiers to get night blindness, and it is unrealistic to treat this disease on a large scale in the late Han Dynasty, but it is possible to treat it on a small scale, and Li Qin successfully solved this problem in the small area of the Fujiao Army. But if you want him to tell others, especially people like Yuan Shao, it will be impossible.
If the person who came to Fujiao Fort was Cao Ying, then Li Qin was unceremonious, and found an excuse to chop Cao Ying, it was impossible to let Cao Ying go back to Luoyang alive, but now it is Yuan Shao, Yuan Shaozhi is very talented, and he wants to win over Li Qin, as long as Li Qin counter-woos him, the two are very likely to become allies, and Yuan Shao becomes an ally, for Li Qin, it is a lot of benefits, he can solve a lot of opponents for him that he is difficult to solve, save him a lot of trouble, and Li Qin only needs to send troops, can kill Yuan Shao, who has lost his use value.
However, how to treat such an important matter as night blindness, Li Qin still will not "tell the truth completely".
Li Qin said: "Brother Yuan asked about this matter, you really asked the right person." My ancestors left a military book, and the relevant methods were recorded in it. ”
Yuan Shao's eyes lit up and said, "But General Fei stayed?" ”
Li Qin hummed and said, "Of course, I can't see other people's military books!" In fact, the soldier's inability to see at night is mainly due to the marriage of close relatives...... "This reason is only one of them, and it is not the main one, but no one knows about it anyway, and it is impossible to verify it, so it doesn't follow what he says."
He continued: "For example, if an aunt or cousin marries and gives birth to a child, they often have this problem, or people in the same village who are related to each other in their ancestors will also have this problem when their descendants get married and have children. ”
Yuan Shao sizzled and said: "My aunt and cousin are married, this is a kiss and a kiss, there are many people in the world, but some people are ...... Some people don't have this problem! ”
Li Qin said: "It's not absolute, but seven or eight out of a hundred soldiers have this problem, isn't this army going to be bad, don't forget that it's a night battle, not a day battle, even if ten percent of them have this kind of problem, as soon as they shout, it's difficult for the army not to mess up!" ”
Yuan Shao nodded, agreed, looked at Li Qin, and listened to what he said.
Li Qin said: "So when I choose soldiers, I try not to choose those who have aunts and cousins to marry, and the soldiers are not organized by region and tribe, but should be broken up as much as possible." ”
"However, it is easy to check the marriage between the cousins, but people from the same region or tribe can ...... They may not even know that their ancestors are related, how can this be distinguished? Besides, if you can see things at night, you just need to ask, and it doesn't seem to be so troublesome. Yuan Shao said.
Li Qin said: "The reason for the separation of the establishment is that there are contradictions between the soldiers. Brother Yuan, you think, as the saying goes, far is fragrant, near is smelly, far away is thoughtful, close is annoying. Sometimes even brothers have gaps, and people who are not familiar with each other often have fewer contradictions, especially when everyone is not aware of each other, they can be more united, on the contrary, if they punish each other, they can also do it! ”
The more Yuan Shao listened, the more confused he became, the former sentence also talked about the soldiers being able to unite, but the latter sentence said that they could punish each other, what does this mean? He glanced at the generals of the Fujiao Army around him, but saw that everyone was silent and didn't look at them, but that Jia Xu looked disdainful, and Zhang Qin pouted!
Yuan Shao thought to himself: "Could it be that this question is very simple, I asked it out and was laughed at?" But this question can't be considered simple anyway, right? ”
Li Qin saw that he was at a loss, so he said: "If there is a person who can't fight at night, but he shouts out, the people around him can go up and slap him and wake him up, and there will be no nephews who smoke uncles and younger brothers who beat their elder brothers. ”
Yuan Shao said: "I see. ”
Li Qin said: "In this way, the possible surname of the camp roar has been removed." And the soldier who was beaten knew that the person who beat him had no grudge against him, and he didn't want to take the opportunity to beat him, so he wouldn't be angry, because everyone was usually quite united, and when he went to the battlefield in the future, others knew that he couldn't see things at night, and he would give more care, and that's how my army practiced! ”
After Yuan Shao heard this, he was silent, he felt that Li Qin's method was a little wrong, but where the fault was, he couldn't hear it, if he said that Li Qin lied to him, but in front of so many people, it was unlikely that he would tell a lie, and he only needed to find a corner soldier to ask in private, and ask them if they were mixed, then Li Qin's words could be confirmed immediately, it was useless for him to lie, he said a lot, he could crack it with a few words, Li Qin would not be so stupid.
Zhang Qin said: "What are you talking about, let's talk about how to beat Li Wenhou after going to Gaonu County!" ”
Yuan Shao glanced at Zhang Qin and thought, "He's stopping Li Qin from talking about the night battle and the camp Xiao, and what Li Qin said is true." ”
He lowered his head and pondered, Li Qin's method cannot be fully believed, but he must not believe it, he must summarize it well, remove the dross, and take its essence, so that he can train a strong army.
Zhang Qin also glanced at Yuan Shao, but thought in her heart: "Yuan Dan'er, if you really believe it, if you really train the soldiers like this, and punish the soldiers vigorously, you don't have to wait for the war to start, you will be beheaded, it is estimated that you will have to be chopped up by your own subordinates before you wait for the troops!" Li Lang is really righteous, and we are the same as the ten permanent servants, and he tries his best to deceive He Jin's henchmen, this is to rectify them to death! ”
Jia Xu and the other generals of the Fujiao Army immediately talked about the future war, and they all deliberately did not mention the matter of military training, but they thought in their hearts: "This Yuan Shao, it is estimated that he will die very miserably in the future, very miserable!" ”
At this time, Wu Danzi came back, and he said with a smile: "Li Lang, I shot that Lu Bu to death, Zhao Zheng forced him to the single-plank bridge on the cliff, and I shot him to death and shot him in the head!" ”
The scouts giggled and laughed, talking loudly about Lu Dan'er's embarrassment, and they all thought that Lu Bu was dead, if not shot, he would definitely drown.
Li Qin didn't have much joy when he heard that Lu Bu was dead, of course, he couldn't talk about disappointment, Lu Bu couldn't be regarded as his fierce rival in the future, at most he was a-stirring stick, this kind of person would not pose a threat to him if he was alive, and it didn't matter if he died, anyway, he would not accept this kind of capricious villain as his subordinate.
Not long after, Zhao Zheng came back, but the news he brought back was that Lu Bu was not dead, and the arrow of the black egg only hit his bun, but did not hit the head.
Li Qin listened, smiled, and said: "This battle is estimated to have made Lu Dan'er lose his courage, in order to prevent him from being shot in the head again, I guess when he doesn't wear a helmet, he will definitely wear a crown on his head, maybe in order to increase his style, he will also wear a gold crown, if you don't believe it, just look at it, the next time I see him, he must wear a crown." ”
Wu Danzi said: "Then when we meet, I have to remind him that his habit of wearing a crown is still something I developed for him!" ”
