The most perfect strategy often requires the most elaborate design.

Zhu Ping's combined army, like two big stones, blocked the road to Lin Zheng's castle, so that Lin Zheng's idea of uniting with other nobles came to an end.

War pays attention to one: the soldiers are expensive and fast.

Obviously, Zhu Ping's move caught them off guard.

If you want to ask, why didn't the nobles unite before, but lived in their own castles?

The reason is actually very simple, it's like two villages fighting, will the people in the village stay together day and night because the fight hasn't started yet?

If it's true, don't get past the day!

It doesn't matter, before people from other villages come, the villagers who live together will be fine if they don't fight with themselves.

Compared with the villagers, the aristocracy is even better, they can be gathered together because of the pressure, but the competition between them that belongs to the zero-sum game is destined to be not monolithic.

Viscount Lin Zheng in the castle.

The nobleman, who had a hypocritical smile on his face in the past, did not laugh anymore or become angry, but simply sat in the courtyard, crossed the private soldiers neatly arranged in the square inside the door, and looked out of the door.

Silence is the noble castle this morning.

From time to time, Lin Zheng threw a "signal flare" into the sky, signaling that if a nobleman made the first move, they would immediately follow.

So here's the problem.

These nobles full of gentlemanly demeanor and chivalry, who will be the first bird of this doomed destruction?

Lin Zheng's wives were sobbing quietly, among his dozen or so children, some of the younger ones were still chasing and fighting as if nothing had happened, and some of the older ones were already able to help him share his troubles and give advice with righteous indignation.

There are three people who can speak.

Lin Zheng's eldest son's round face deliberately left two small beards, coupled with a smile that deliberately imitated Lin Zheng, like a philistine businessman.

Lin Zheng's second son had short hair and was not wearing a tuxedo, but a brand new armor with exquisite workmanship and gold and jade.

It can be seen that this armor is very well maintained, not only is it polished and waxed, but there is not even a single scratch.

In the castle, the last son of Lin Zheng who could speak was his fifth son, a young but extremely intelligent teenager.

"Father, since that guy Hall has experienced several battles with his troops, he must be very tired, so he should be caught off guard before he is rested." Lin Zheng's second son has a word.

Behind him, several commanders repeatedly agreed.

The armor on this young man's body is not for show, and certainly not for war, the clothes on his body represent the interest groups under Lin Zheng.

Don't look at the aristocratic castle to die.

But although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs.

The small number of people can't stop them from intriguing, just like a six-person girls' dormitory has at least seven dormitories.

Some of the heirs represented the interests of the private soldiers, while others represented the interests of the merchants, each with its own supporters.

"The second brother's words are wrong, and the way to win is to respond to all changes with the same." Lin Zheng's eldest son smiled confidently.

In fact, he was panicked in his heart, he just saw that his father didn't move his troops and horses, so he just said it.

He is a nobleman who has never even ridden a horse, and he still has a hand at bullying merchants by relying on his status, and he knows how to lead troops to fight.

Lin Zheng swept over the two heirs expressionlessly, and finally he stopped his gaze on the fifth son and asked, "Little Wu, do you have any suggestions?" ”

"The United Army is strong and strong, and I don't know how to lead troops to fight, but I also know that it is indeed a little difficult to win, but the United Company is not invincible." Lin Zheng's fifth son was halfway through his words, and he looked at his two elder brothers.

Hearing the fifth brother say that his own soldiers and horses are not good, Lin Zheng's second son frowned and said, "Hmph! Flim tongue, you have been talking for a long time, but you have said some valuable suggestions! ”

Lin Zhengwuzi's eyes flashed, and he said: "The combined army is obviously holding a butcher's knife in their hands, but they keep saying that they are protecting the people at the bottom.

That's where their problems come from.

As for the solution to the problem, it is very simple, put some civilians in front of the battle, act as shields, and see if they retreat, if they retreat, outflank them with other nobles, and the United Company will definitely be defeated.

If you don't retreat, but swing the butcher's knife at these people, then the promises made by the United Company will become waste paper, and the morale of the army will be scattered. ”

Lin Zheng frowned after hearing this, and stopped talking: "What Xiao Wu said, this is a solution, the situation is critical, do you have any suggestions?"

If not, that's all it can do. ”

The fifth heir showed a swaggering smile, the kind of smile that wants candy after a hundred points on the exam.

However, Lin Zheng's eldest son glanced at his father, and then at Xiao Wu, showing a thoughtful expression.

Soon thoughtfulness turned to schadenfreude.

Xiao Wu is indeed very smart, but he is still young after all!

This way of threatening the other party, his father couldn't have imagined? I've thought of it for a long time! Even the people are grasped.

I just don't want to speak.

After all, these people who stayed in Lin Zheng's castle temporarily, and the people who lived around the castle were not slaves, most of them were rich people who had business relations with Lin Zheng.

For the aristocracy, slaves were disposed of casually, and commoners were disposed of carefully, and these rich people were a pile of hot potatoes.

The middle and upper echelons of these kingdom classes, although not as powerful as the nobles, also have some right to speak.

Lin Zheng was reluctant to speak, if he took the initiative to speak, the nobleman's face would not be at all.

And now, Xiao Wu opened his mouth, and Lin Zheng, as a father, reluctantly agreed, which was equivalent to putting on a fig leaf.

Aristocratic hypocrisy.

It doesn't mean they like hypocrisy!

Rather, it has to be hypocritical.

If Lin Zheng became the king, and the people's evaluation of him was to use "commoners" as a shield to obtain the throne, what would be the result?

Slaves also have tempers, and slaves also want to live.

The contradictions between the upper and lower levels of the kingdom completely broke out, and it was really fun.

……

An hour later.

Lin Zheng's guards pushed more than 200 old and weak women and children to the front of the military formations on both sides, used this as a shield, and shouted to Zhu Ping: "Baron Hall, these people are your spies hiding in the castle.

Sir Ben doesn't want to kill too much, but don't push Sir Ben anymore.

Didn't you unite the company to claim to protect ordinary people?

Now Sir Ben will open the gates and see for himself how your soldiers wield butcher's knives at their necks. ”

Some of these spies, known as the old and weak women and children, were crying, some were scolding, and they were flustered.

"Noble lord, the villain is a merchant, and he came to the castle to do business! The villain is not a spy! ”

"Master Lin Zheng, I live in the block in front of you, and you still saw me at the banquet half a month ago? You've caught the wrong person! ”

"Please let me go!"

“……”

No matter how these people cried, Lin Zheng was indifferent.

He insisted that these people were spies for the United Company.

He said they were spies, and these people were spies.

This information must be suppressed during the war, and if the war is over, things can't be suppressed and exposed, and his five sons will take the blame.

If Hall retreats and is encircled in many ways, no matter how strong the soldiers and horses of the United Company are, it will not help, and if Hall does not retreat and advances, then the United Army's butcher's knife will be chaotic when it cuts at these ordinary people.

Lin Zheng smiled, the United Company became civilians, and defeated civilians.

Zhu Pinghall is still too young

……

On the other side, Zhu Ping also blessed his voice with extraordinary energy, and said: "Viscount Lin Zheng, you have a good means to arrest these rich people who live next to your castle, and say that they are my spies."

It's a mouth-throwing. ”

The reason for the rice spraying is not only because some of the people inside are innocent, but also because some of them are really spies.

At the same time as Zhu Ping said something stunning, the scouts who had been in ambush for a long time received a signal.

Riot......
