Chapter Eighty-Four: Lectures
When Chen Sheng and Han Dali waited for others and appeared in front of Meng Yi Fusu wet, seeing the shocked gazes of the two, a wicked smile appeared on Chen Sheng's face. Seeing the expressions of Han Dali and his guards as if they were mourning, they already understood that Chen Sheng had achieved the final victory without asking.
The battle situation in the river was completely one-sided. The guards, who were overwhelmed, couldn't use their strength with all their strength, but were killed by Chen Sheng, who was like a swimming fish, and turned over on his back, and in a short period of time, Chen Sheng was unscathed and put down seventeen guards. If it weren't for the fact that Han Dali didn't want the Praetorian Guards to be wiped out and let the remaining dozen or so Praetorian Guards withdraw from the river, I'm afraid the losses would have to be further expanded.
What made Han Dali depressed was that he threw and roared in the river, chasing Chen Sheng, but Chen Sheng never came close to him for half a minute. I don't know if it's because Chen Sheng is afraid of his might, or if he wants to leave a little face for the guards and clean up the two captains, which is really a bit unreasonable.
Meng Yi didn't deliberately count the results. The Praetorian guards lost so miserably so unknowingly, which is enough to hurt their self-esteem, and it would be unkind to expose people's scars. Fusu was also rarely confused, as if he had forgotten the competition between Chen Sheng and the guards, and just asked everyone to change their clothes so as not to catch the cold.
Only Ling Suyun asked Chen Sheng in private: "How many have you knocked down?" "The nine people who were solved by Chen Sheng before returned ahead of schedule, so Ling Suyun had a bottom in her heart. But in the end, those who fought in the river were forced to go ashore with Han Dali's order to go ashore and the time for the competition had come, and everyone returned together, so the rest of the numbers, the audience was confused.
Chen Sheng smiled silently.
Ling Suyun didn't give up and asked, "Fifteen?" "Seeing the appearance of the guards as if they were mourning, they were obviously hit hard. The time difference between the return of the ninth guard and the return of Chen Sheng and the others was not too long, so Ling Suyun's judgment was not too exaggerated.
Chen Sheng continued to laugh, turned around and went to the military tent to change clothes.
Ling Suyun snorted, and then muttered, "Are there twenty?" It's not very likely, right? In fact, Chen Sheng put down twenty-nine janitarian guards. The competitive team, which had a total of only fifty members, was brutally disabled by Chen Sheng with various conspiracies. If a Praetorian guard were to suffer such heavy casualties on the battlefield, the enemy would have to pay at least five times as much as his own, and that number would have to be the final elite of the opposing camp. But against Chen Sheng, such an undefeated army was hit like never before.
The result of the victory was in exchange for the guards' respect for Chen Sheng. The two hundred janissaries, word of mouth, probably knew how their comrades-in-arms had been defeated in the hands of Chen Sheng. Although Chen Sheng's methods are a little tricky and even a little despicable, the loser has never had the right to judge whether the opponent is despicable or noble. It is advisable to defeat the enemy by any means.
After changing into clean and comfortable clothes and drinking two large bowls of hot soup, Chen Sheng reappeared in front of the guards. This time, the two hundred guards looked at Chen Sheng a little differently, and they remembered very clearly that a quarter of their teammates, including two experienced and brave captains, had also suffered great losses under Chen Sheng's men.
Winners are always respected.
Chen Sheng smiled and looked at the Praetorian Guards lined up in front of him. His face was still a little pale due to excessive physical exhaustion. After looking around for a while, he spoke: "Fellow Janissary brothers, the results of our competition have come out just now. As a result, I'll be your training officer for the next few days. ”
The guards were silent. However, it can be seen that the expressions on their faces are still a little complicated. Some are unconvinced, some admire, and some are puzzled.
"You may think that the reason why I won was because I was opportunistic, and I didn't fight you properly, and I was able to win because of pure luck, but everyone, remember that luck is based on absolute strength. If I am not proficient in those ways, how can I ambush you, how can I escape from your encirclement, how can I lure you to the river, how can I send a signal to distract you at the most opportune time, and then launch an interception? These are all knowledge, students! At the end of the triumphant speech, Chen Sheng's words were a little exposed, and even some unfamiliar words appeared.
"Ahem" realized that he was a little carried away, Chen Sheng hurriedly said solemnly: "I know that the Praetorian Guard is the most elite army in Great Qin, but in the Lingnan area, there are many mountains and fields, and the water network is dense, it is difficult for the cavalry to fight, and even the ordinary phalanx army is difficult to operate freely, which is also the main reason why it is difficult for our army to advance." Therefore, there is no shame in learning more tactics. The tactics I am going to teach you are not to charge ahead of the formation, but how to use the strength of the individual to deliver as devastating and asymmetrical blows as possible against the enemy, just as I did against you just now......"
"Your main performance is individual combat, with individual strength, to create asymmetrical results, to eliminate and interfere with the enemy's combat deployment and performance to the greatest extent......" Although Chen Sheng also stayed in the special forces in his previous life, he was not an instructor, and he was not a soldier, but just a military doctor with the army, and he also knew a general meaning for the tutorials of the special operations troops, and he was not able to form a system. Fortunately, he also fought with the army many times, so he expressed what he saw in his own words. Although the rank of the forbidden army present is not low, but the literacy rate of Daqin is not high, and most of the people present are illiterate Qiu Ba, and they can't listen to the professional terms of war science in later generations, so when Chen Sheng summed it up in his own words, these forbidden soldiers listened to it with relish and were very engrossed.
Chen Sheng's training of soldiers, Meng Yi and Fusu are naturally not to be missed. Even Ling Suyun was listening. The three of them were fresh. In particular, Meng Yi and Fusu were particularly shocked. Both of them have been familiar with the art of war since childhood, but they never thought of the idea of this kind of tactics proposed by Chen Sheng. And the two of them also gave a very appropriate evaluation of Chen Sheng's tactics in their hearts: weird and insidious. I finally understood why those janissaries were beaten so badly by Chen Sheng.
Chen Sheng's story is all about how individual soldiers infiltrate the enemy's camp, how to take advantage of the environment and location, and carry out destruction as much as possible, such as poisoning water sources, burning enemy grain and grass, planning to assassinate the enemy's senior commanders, how to design traps to lure the other party into taking the bait and hunting, and so on. From beginning to end, the tricks are extremely yin damage, and the effect is very significant, and there are also examples of battles with the guards before, which makes the guards terrified to hear. Hu Bugui and Han Dali shuddered in their hearts, and after listening to Chen Sheng's story, they realized that they had fallen into the other party's design every step of the way, no wonder they would fail all the way to the end.
Meng Yi and Fusu both had goosebumps. It is conceivable that if such an army enters its own battalion, it will not be long before it can disintegrate the combat effectiveness of the battalion. Then the opponent's army charged, and the whole army was finished. Fortunately, Chen Sheng is a member of the Great Qin Empire, and under Chen Sheng's hands, he may be able to establish such a smart and warlike army
