Chapter 32 Stress and Resilience

The war began.

The first people to run to the city were busy catching cattle and sheep, but all those who caught cattle and sheep seemed to have lost interest in attacking the city, and dragged their own cattle and sheep back.

Fortunately, in the back of the rock, Cha Hei and they quickly hacked to death a lot of guys who walked back with machetes, which made the team start to move forward again.

Kill, kill into the city, there is endless food in it, the treasure in it, the grain, the clean women are yours - Cha Hei shouted at the top of his voice.

A few feathered arrows flew out of the city.

Wen Huan looked at the sparseness of the arrow rain, and said to Yun Jin: The scale of two hundred archers, therefore, the number of people defending the city will not exceed eight hundred, so they can let Langyan and them attack the city from all directions.

Yun Jin shook his head and said: Take a look again, see if the residents of the city have the same hatred for the enemy, if there is, this city will not be able to be attacked.

The war entered the climax from the beginning, countless barbarians stepped on this stone wall piled with schist, and climbed up the city, and soon they would be smashed down by the defenders at the head of the city, of course, there were also many barbarians who climbed the wall no more than four meters high, they did not help the brothers under the city to sweep the enemy troops at the head of the city, but could not wait to jump into the city and began to rob.

Just created a little chaos, and was beaten to death by the people in the city.

Di Guangsi looked at the dense crowd of people on the city wall, shook his head and said to Yun Jin: If you can organize an orderly attack, you can reduce the number of people by at least sixty percent.

Yun Jin said: The battlefield is a good place to learn, but also a place to screen people, no brains will die, long brains will survive and win, as long as we continue to attack, attack, attack, experience more battlefields, these barbarians will become elite soldiers.

Cha Hei ran over and sent a sheep to Yun Jin and them, and then said: Langyan wants to attack the city in person, can you?

Yun Jin said: It's okay, if you don't take the lead at this time and consolidate your position, when will you do these things? Hey, aren't you ready to go?

Cha Hei laughed dryly and said: After the boss of Langyan and them climb the city wall, I will go up again.

After that, he seemed to be very afraid that Yun Jin would ask him to climb the city wall now, and he ran away as soon as he slipped away.

Wen Huan clicked his mouth and said: The benefits of the war have been cleaned up by such a guy.

The corpses under the city of Zhuti were piled up, and just when the barbarians were afraid of death and were about to retreat, Langyan, wearing horned helmets, finally launched, and saw him with a hundred strong men with machetes in their hands, quickly come to the bottom of the city wall full of corpses and wounds, bite the big blade in his mouth, and began to climb the wall without fear of death.

These 100 people are the essence of this team, and these people are the first to challenge the loot, pick the women first, and they take the pigs and sheep first, in fact, these people are really worthy of their elite name, and even climbing the city wall is much faster than others.

At this time, the high-intensity siege battle had been going on for half an hour, and the defenders at the head of the city had already sweated and panted under the fierce attack.

Wen Huan roasted the mutton over the charcoal fire, and said to Yun Jin: Don't the people in the city know how to help?

Yun Jin roasted the mutton and said: Many people in the city don't understand this truth, and the Tang people are the same, even if the city is broken and the enemy's knife cuts his neck, he still hates those who defend the city for not fighting to the death.

Di Guangsi also roasted a leg of mutton and said: Anyway, I saw the broken appearance of Zhu Ti's city, and if Chang'an encounters the same problem next time, I will definitely fight to the death outside the city.

Li Chengxiu glanced at Zhu Ticheng, which was already on fire, shook his head and said: If the people of the whole city go to the city wall to help, so that those defenders can take a breath, this city will not be breached.

By the time the four of them finished eating the roast mutton, the hustle and bustle in the city of Zhuti had basically stopped, and unlike the rest of the city, it was a rich city, and most of the people in the city made a living from doing business, and they traveled back and forth on the burning road to trade with the Tang Dynasty.

The Cheng brothers followed Langyan into the city, and when Yun Jin saw their brothers, they were sitting in a grand place

Looking at the pile of gold and silver in the middle of the house, this is the city lord's mansion of Juti.

Yun Jin said: Take it if you like.

Cheng Long shook his head and said: This is our brother in the camp, besides, there are not many.

Wen Huan glanced at the amount of gold and silver and smiled: Two thousand guan is not too much?

Cheng Longdao: My ancestor said that when you want military merits, you might as well look down on money, and if you want money, don't think about military merits anymore, and said that every time you go on an expedition, you can only choose one, and our brothers choose military merits.

Di Guangsi said: What about the corpse?

Cheng Hu said: There is a deep well in the city of Zhuti, which is said to have never dried up for many years, and they threw all the corpses into the huge well, and the corpses filled the well and buried it with earth.

Wen Huan spread his hands and said: It's over, the water veins are connected, and there will be endless plagues in this city within ten years.

What about making rocks? Yun Jin looked left and right and didn't see Langyan.

Cha Hei hurriedly came over and said: I am discussing with someone how to kill us.

Wen Huan frowned and said: "It's hard, it's better to be smarter."

Cha Hei smiled: The brothers will tie up the rock and send it over in a while.

Di Guangsi looked at Cha Heidao: Why didn't you think about killing a few of us with Langyan and them?

Cha Hei showed a mouth of white teeth and smiled: I'm not as stupid as him.

Li Chengxiu sighed and said: This guy doesn't look like a barbarian at all.

Cha Hei hurriedly said: I am not a barbarian, in fact, my aunt said that he used to have a good relationship with a Tang man.

Di Guangsi resisted the urge to hack this disgusting guy to death and said to Cha Heidao: When will Langyan be sent over?

Cha Hei smiled: It's already here.

As soon as the words fell, after a bloody battle, Lang Yan, who had made himself wounded, was sent by a group of people tied to the door panel.

Even though he was tied up, he still struggled to curse that the group of people who carried him in were pigs, and the sadness and indignation on his face made people know that he was in great pain at the moment.

He really couldn't figure it out, he had obviously given them all the treasures, grain, and the most beautiful women in Juti City, and even promised them ten pigs each.

Unexpectedly, before he could say this, he was rushed up by these people and tied up and sent to the demon-like person, who privately thought that these people should not be barbarians, but burners.

Yun Jin still scolded Langyan at a glance, and said to the barbarians who sent Langyan: What Rongyan promised you is yours, and you will keep a little more money around you in the future, and don't always think about raising pigs.

After finishing speaking, he said to Cha Heidao: You come to distribute it to the brothers.

After Cha Hei received the order, he laughed and led the people away.

Li Chengxiu said: This investigation of black does not seem to be reliable at all.

Wen Huan said disdainfully: You are wrong, Cha Hei is the most reliable guy,

After that, the four of them were under the frightened gaze of the Cheng brothers, and together they stitched up the wounds of Langyan.

After conquering Zhuti City, the lord of the big village of Nongyan was quickly promoted to the lord of Longyan City, and he ordered the villagers near Zhuti City to sacrifice ten pigs to him, otherwise, their stockade would be slaughtered.

After this news was sent, Yun Jin recorded a new topic in his small notebook: the endurance of small forces under strong coercion.

This is actually a pressure experiment, which assumes that in a limited area, the social forces that have mastered the powerful means will inevitably achieve the exploitation of the weak forces in the form of plunder. Then, at this time, the necessary reason for the experiment came out, taking Juti City as an example, his power projection range was within a radius of twenty miles, and in the area within this twenty miles, there were a total of seventeen stockades.

We need to keep putting pressure on the seventeen stockades to see how much pressure they are under, and I'm curious to know whether the stockade farthest from Juti City will resist first, or the one closest to Juti City, and there is a subheading for this, which is the relationship between the range of power projection and the actual distance.

We also have to test at the same time what level of exploitation is ten

The limit of what the seven stockades can bear must also be clarified, beyond what degree will lead to the resistance of those weak forces, what degree of exploitation will lead to the emergence of the most primitive political alliances, and what kind of exploitation will lead to large-scale uprisings of the people.

All of the above questions will be answered one by one in this experiment of Zhu Ticheng.

I hope that in the next 21 days, you will be able to get practical answers from this social practice activity.

This answer has practical political significance for the governance of Nanzhao in the future of the Tang Dynasty.

Wen Huan laughed and said: So, we are playing the villain this time, right?

Di Guangsi snorted coldly and said: If we don't play, we are fucking villains.

Li Chengxiu looked at Yun Jin and said: Does it have to be real?

Yun Jin's indifferent gaze swept over the faces of the three of them, and said softly: "It's me, not you, I'm the initiator of the practical activities, and everyone should record the variables in as much detail as possible."

Di Guangsi threw a piece of licorice into his mouth, and said while chewing: I don't admit your love, since I want to be a bastard, I think the four of us are qualified.

Speaking of this, Di Guangsi sighed again and said: Who would have thought that the source of the suffering that these people would endure turned out to be a social practice activity.

Don't tell me right now that we're doing this for these people to have a brighter future, and that sounds disgusting to me.
