Chapter 139: The Way to Defeat the Enemy
What Wu Feng said came from the investigation materials provided by Song Shannei, and every sentence was true, and there was almost no lie.
Because of this, Xue Dingye listened to Wu Feng's eloquent talk, his face changed from blue to red to white, and he couldn't say a word.
If you only listen to what Wu Feng said, then Xue Yiren is not only not a famous general, but simply a waste.
In fact, Wu Feng played a common but extremely effective trick here.
Xue Dingye touted his father, which was a general praise, and it was also a common routine for storytellers.
People who believe in this kind of talk are often so-called brainless fans.
For brain-dead fans, the best way is to slap the face with data. But data slapping in the face is also the most convenient overkill.
Just take out all the black history of the other party and display it monotonously regardless of the situation and environment, so that the observer can feel that this person is simply rubbish.
In fact, there is a favorable time and place in war, victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, and no matter how good a general is, it is impossible to be undefeated in his life. Wu Feng divided the battle history of Xue Yiren's life into small battles, and emphasized all the unfavorable situations in the battle.
However, the victory or defeat of the war lies in the result, the offensive war is not easy to fight, the powerful formation and the steep terrain can easily make the attacking side suffer heavy losses, and it is very common for the battle situation to be unfavorable. In most cases, Xue Yiren finally achieved their strategic goals, defeated the enemy, and expanded their forces, even if there were setbacks along the way, the ending was often good.
As for the battle of Chenggu, Xue Yiren's performance seemed to be a mess, and it took a year to capture the city, during which he was repulsed forty-three times, and was defeated fifteen times by surprise attacks, including four heavy defeats, two medium defeats, and nine small defeats, with a total loss of more than 2,000 soldiers.
However, that incompetent performance was actually Xue Yiren's self-respecting approach, deliberately appearing incompetent in attacking the city, and constantly asking for additional reinforcements to expand his own power, so after helping Master Ying Wujian seize the position of the head of Tianzi Peak, Xue Yiren immediately had enough strength to imprison the master. However, this matter is not glorious, so it is generally said more vaguely, even Xue Yiren's son Xue Dingye is not very clear about the details, Wu Feng came to such a conclusion through his own analysis, and of course his position will not say it.
Wu Feng said that the loss of more than 2,000 soldiers was not just regular samurai, but also included militia and people who transported grain, and all those who died of exhaustion and disease in the war were also counted, so there was this data.
The data of 2,173 was also compiled by Wu Feng casually, and Song Shannei stayed in Hanzhong for a few days, relying on walking the streets and alleys to ask the old man to investigate, how could it be accurate to a single digit? This only shocked Xue Dingye at his ability to investigate, and he didn't know how strong he was.
In fact, it is not difficult to prove that Xue Yiren is stronger than Su Mengzhen in terms of soldiers. Xue Yiren also had times in his life when he went deep into the enemy's territory, but even if he was defeated, he could always clean up the defeated soldiers and preserve his strength, Su Mengzhen's five thousand elite soldiers who had won many battles and were well prepared, after being defeated by Xue Yiren with six thousand warriors temporarily gathered, chased and killed all the way, and the loss was close to three thousand, and Su Mengzhen could only flee alone.
It must be known that the war of annihilation is the most difficult to fight, and it cannot annihilate a large number of living forces of the enemy's army, and no matter how many victories are fought, it will not be of the utmost use. At that time, the Changping God of Killing often fought more and less, but after a hundred battles in his life, the total number of enemies destroyed reached more than 900,000, so he achieved the name of the God of War through the ages, and no one could surpass it.
Of course, Wu Feng had a bright heart, and knew that he was full of one-sided words. However, the skill of belittling the enemy lies in pretending to be full of confidence, speaking unhurriedly, implicitly mocking, and striking at the psychology of defending the enemy to the greatest extent, so that the opponent will be completely suppressed in momentum as if he was struck by lightning, and he will not have the courage to refute them one by one.
The generation of overlords who dominated the north back then was reprimanded to his face: "The prime minister drives troops everywhere, the battle must be won, the attack must be taken, and Song also knows it." In the past, when Puyang attacked Lu Bu, Wancheng fought Zhang Xiu's day, Chibi met Zhou Lang, and Huarong met Guan Yu. Cut the beard and abandon the robe in Tongguan, seize the boat and avoid the arrows in Weishui: this is invincible in the world", but he was only annoyed and angry, and he couldn't refute it with words.
Now Xue Dingye was so angry with Wu Feng that his whole body trembled, and he was completely speechless.
He seemed to have been slapped in the face by Wu Feng and became delirious, and he felt that the image of his god-like father in his former mind was about to collapse.
Deng Aihou's face was different, surprised by Wu Feng's sharp and lightning-like offensive, but he was worried that this was a secret discussion of the alliance after all, if Xue Dingye was humiliated and walked away, how should it end.
Wu Feng understood that Xue Dingye was extremely arrogant, and he was about to defeat his arrogance with one blow before he could talk about things.
Having said that, it is necessary to give Schrödinger a dozen rounds.
"The words just now may be offensive. When I say this, I don't mean to look down on Ling Zun. However, victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, and the heads of successful people have a layer of deified aura, and Li Qing of the Sanhe Sword Sect at that time claimed to be able to win the world before the age of thirty, but as a result, a round of random arrows was shot into a sieve, and the aura collapsed, and it was just like that, Su Mengzhen was defeated by Ling Zun, and the aura was dimmed. But the difference in strength between Ling Zun and Su Mengzhen is by no means as big as many people think, and it is not so easy for Tianzi Peak to destroy the Divine Hall. Not to mention anything else, can the Holy King Dao Sect watch Ling Zun merge the two strongest martial arts sects in the world into one? There must be multiple forces attacking, dividing the Divine Hall with lightning speed, and then joining forces to repel the attack from the cultivators' side in order to stabilize the results of the battle. The Iwakura Hall is located behind the side of the Divine Hall, and it can threaten the back of Su Mengzhen, even though the strength is limited, but the position it occupies is extremely critical, and it can contain a lot of the strength of the Divine Hall. At this point, Tianzi Peak is worthy of an alliance with Iwakura!I wonder if Brother Xue thinks so?"
Wu Feng accepted the mocking tone, full of anger.
When Xue Dingye heard this, his face turned better and he stopped trembling, otherwise he might have been so angry that he was foaming at the mouth.
Now although Xue Dingye is still angry, this is an alliance, and he can't be completely unreasonable.
If Wu Feng is the same age as him, he can also make a challenge and beat Wu Feng to a long face. However, this young man is obviously several years younger than him, and he bullies the small with the big, and he definitely does not show his ability.
Wu Feng was reasonable, and he was not allowed to raise any more objections.
At this time, Deng Aihou, Hua Zongdai and others also spoke out one after another.
Xue Dingye pondered for a while, exhaled, and said, "What Gongzi Xie said is reasonable, and I also think it is feasible to form an alliance." ”
Hearing this, Deng Aihou and Hua Zongdai were all happy, only Deng Sanshi was faintly unhappy when he saw Wu Feng in the limelight.
