Chapter 7: The Tactics of Locust Warfare

War is the final form of solving all problems, and it is also the most extreme form, once the war starts, whether it is unilateral or multi-faceted, it will no longer stop or stop because of the will of a certain country or a person, only when one side falls, or when both sides are unable to carry out the war, it will really stop, so except for some crazy people, other normal people will continue to calculate the amount of money needed for the entire war before the war. Supplies, weapons, everything that is consumed and not consumed, needs to be taken into account, not only on your own side, but also on the enemy's side. At this time, if the expeditionary force fights a war, it is undoubtedly a relatively poor choice, on the one hand, because of the limitation of numbers, they cannot get more land, and on the other hand, their goal is not to occupy a continent or a place, their goal is to fight the sword, the high-level sword, and of course, there are many other different immortal spells and the like, these are incidental.

"How should we conduct the war, or what is our first goal?Demon Domain?Sword Sect?Or Yang Sect?" Zhuge Yibu asked, in terms of the goal of the expeditionary force, it should be the most realistic to fight against the Sword Sect, after all, they were originally here for the sword mastery, and as the only sect named after the sword among the five major sects in the Zhongzhou Continent, their sword art must be the crown of other sects. However, if you count in terms of distance, the Demon Domain is the most suitable, after all, it is a huge sect closest to them. As for Yang Zong, it's just incidental, just to make up a number. No one would really knock out the most powerful sect in the entire continent with a single hammer.

"Judging from the information obtained so far, the Sword Sect is too far away, and it is difficult to get there for a while. Moreover, the expedition of tired teachers is a taboo for soldiers, and Yang Zong has been in existence for the longest time. The background is the richest, the water is the deepest, and it is also an expedition of laborers, which is a taboo for soldiers, so it seems that only the Demon Domain is the most suitable. The proximity of the distance, and the intelligence of their actions are the most unscrupulous, and the local people they rule are very dissatisfied, so they are the most suitable targets for us. Zhang Yiming also said, during this time, everyone's research on the entire Zhongzhou Continent has entered the situation. Although it is limited to a very small part, it is no longer the same as before.

"That's right, Demon Domain should be our best choice. Long Tianxian also spoke, and for a while, all the people made their own different remarks, and the biggest target was of course the Demon Domain, as if they could directly eat the Demon Domain in one bite.

......

Kong Ming didn't speak, he just quietly watched everyone's discussion.

After a long time, all the people except Kong Ming were unified, and the target demon domain was targeted.

Kong Ming looked at these belligerent guys who had been holding back for half a year, smiled and said, "If it is said that it is now in the Huatian Continent. I will definitely adopt your kind of construction, because the biggest enemy in the current situation is the Demon Domain, as long as they are eliminated, the entire western part of the Zhongzhou Continent will be ours. Or rather, once we get here, these places west of the Demon Realm are all we have predetermined. From this point of view. There is nothing wrong with what you say, and there will be nothing wrong with the discussion. But, brothers. You have overlooked one point. โ€

"What was overlooked?"

"Which point?"

Many voices asked at the same time.

Kong Ming laughed again and said directly: "That is, their way of ruling is very different from ours. โ€

"How to rule?"

Everyone's hearts wondered, what is the matter with this Kong Ming, who only speaks half of his words? However, many of them know that it is not Kong Ming who speaks slowly, nor does Kong Ming only speak halfway, but Kong Ming is organizing words to express what he means, and sure enough, after a while, Kong Ming continued: " That's right, it's the way of governance, in our Huatian Continent is generally in the form of a country, each country has its own set of effective laws and systems, so that in this environment, the strong can not oppress the weak, the weak do not have to fear the strong, the rich life is better, the poor live a little worse, of course, or each country has a lot of differences, but in general, it is possible to live a peaceful life, people are poor, but it is not to the point that the poor want to kill the rich and help the poor. In the past, the saint was honored and could be knighted, but it was also within the control of the state, so it can be said that the state provides each of us with an opportunity to learn, and also provides an opportunity for each of us to grow. Although I have the least say in this point, after all, I have been thrown away since I was a child and have not had many opportunities to study, but after all, I survived and finally entered the comprehensive university of the Huayuan Empire. โ€

When Kong Ming said this, Yun Haifeng, who was hiding on the side, looked directly at his nose and nose, and directly took the last sentence into account, as for the ridicule of other colleagues, he has been used to it for more than ten years, so it doesn't matter.

"There is hope if you survive. However, here, in the past six months, we will continue to be able to find history, geography, people, After looking at the scenery, in general, the entire Zhongzhou Continent is under the rule of the sects, the five major sects rule the major sects, the big sects rule the small sects, and the small sects manage a small territory, which seems to be calm on the surface, but in fact, those small sects must intrigue with the sects that rule them in order to survive, not only that, in order to be strong, they also need to constantly fight with the adjacent sects, only in this way can they survive. On the other hand, in order to maintain their own advantages, the big sects need constant battles between those small sects, and sometimes they even control this kind of battle behind their backs, just like raising Gu, raising a huge and most powerful Gu in the constant struggle, but when that Gu is strong, it is time for them to eliminate. In this way, I don't know how many Gu will die. This form of their domination directly doomed the sects in the entire continent to be truly powerful. If Huatian Continent is discipline, then this place is scattered. Such forms can be used by me, and for us, they are like a flock of sheep scattered on the earth. We can catch a lot with just a light grasp. Kong Ming continued. He knew very little about this system of the sect when he first came into contact with it. But the more I came into contact, the more shocked I became. This kind of system is simply for those who are strong, the law of the jungle, human life is like a mustard, the struggle is continuous, from the powerful monks to ordinary mortals, one person has attained the Tao chicken dog ascended to heaven, in short, the personal struggle is infinitely magnified, and those who died are infinitely diluted, so that groups of monks continue to go to such a path. As for the sect, the powerful sect is the monk's home, and the weak sect is just the monk's hotel. Even the Demon Domain, a sect without humanity, can actually exist magnificently, and it is one of the five major sects, which makes Kong Ming feel incredible, as a soldier who has always taken military discipline as the criterion, joining the army is to defend what he needs to defend, and now the mortals here can only watch the strong destroy their own homes. And many of them are still children or neighbors who have seen them since they were young, and some have even suffered unjustified disasters and their lives are difficult to guarantee, and this kind of rule has continued to the present. It made Kong Ming feel even more strange. Although there is a lot of darkness and a lot of unknown things in the Huatian Continent, most of these things are not visible. After seeing the light, people will inevitably cause great trouble, commonly known as seeing the light and dying. Here, he is directly doing those dark things in broad daylight, which is really incomprehensible to Kong Ming.

"That's right. From the information we have gathered, most of the monks here have little loyalty to speak of, and I think it would be more effective to lure them into such people. After hearing Kongming's words, Zhuge Yibu suddenly realized that the fortress was the easiest to break through from the inside, not to mention that this fortress was not too strong.

"Hmm, are we talking about this too darkly? After all, there are many legends of immortals here, and it is not uncommon to save people from fire and water, and their so-called immortals are the monks here. Tang Mingye muttered a little, and the confidence in his words was not very sufficient, although he was the founding emperor, but now everyone here is a strong man at the level of the Venerable, and Kong Ming and several of the guards are strong above the Venerable, so he can only put away the shelf of the founding emperor and become an ordinary member of it.

"Yes, what you see is only a superficial phenomenon, and the true immortal is not only a savior, but also a compassionate person. Yun Pingtai was very dissatisfied with Kong Ming's intentions about the Zhongzhou Continent, after all, he was born here, and the feelings in his bones are always unforgettable.

"Perhaps, but that's what we've received so far, and there's no doubt that we're going to have to base it on that to make the strategy we need. Kong Ming sighed, the forest is big, there are all kinds of birds, and in a huge continent, there are more people of all kinds and types, and it is far from being clear from this bit of intelligence.

"That's right, forget it, judging from the current intelligence, we can only make the next step in response to such information. Others can only agree with this statement, after all, this is not a seminar, but a meeting to develop the strategy of the future expeditionary force.

After eliminating this interference, the entire expeditionary force began to discuss the next strategy.

"In the next battle, we may be able to win this battle with a completely different strategy than we have before. Kong Ming said.

"In view of the fact that this is dominated by sects, and their sects are established on the spiritual veins, the size of the sects completely depends on the size of the spiritual veins, and those spiritual veins are often far away from the places where mortals live, the people are small and the forces are not unified, this situation is very convenient for us to implement a new method of warfare. โ€

"What tactics?"

"What tactics?"

"What tactics?"

"What tactics?"

Many people look at Kong Ming with such thoughts, different objects need different tactics, different enemies need different strategies, this is the strategy of the soldiers, but also the real move with the times, there is no eternal and unchanging method of war, only the strategy that changes with the times, and the art of war can only be used as a reference at any time, not a holy word.

"Locust tactics. โ€

"Locust warfare?"

"Locust warfare?"

"Locust warfare?"

"Locust warfare?"

Everyone looked at Kong Ming suspiciously, and began to think about the true meaning of Kong Ming's speech.

The people here are not idiots, locusts are also common, once the locusts form a certain scale, then it has great destructive power, all the plants in the place are looted, not a single inch of grass grows, this situation is not a big deal for cultivators, but for mortals it is an extremely terrible natural disaster, once this locust passes, although it will not die for a while, but after that, in the absence of any rescue, it will definitely starve to death many people. How could this scourge become an adjective for the commander's new tactics?

"Well, it's the locust warfare method, on the one hand, because we have too few people, although the fifteen million Venerable is powerful, but the lack of people is an absolute hard wound, under this hard wound, we can't really occupy the territory that we have beaten down, so we don't need to occupy it; Therefore, we can only adopt the locust warfare method, loot all the places we have passed, create a large enough strategic space, so that the five major sects that are enemies of us will lose the advantage of their home field, and turn these places into places where the two sides are equal, so that we will not suffer losses in this area. In this way, when we have almost exhausted their combat power, we can find an empty space and directly attack one of the five major sects, and we can achieve our goal. Kong Ming explained.

"Then why don't we directly attack one of the five major sects now? The Demon Domain is so close to us, it is completely possible to fight down. Long Tianxian asked with some incomprehension.

"Behind the five major sects is the immortal realm, which is a higher level than us, if we attack directly, it will not be good to attract those immortals lurking here, although we are not afraid of them, but, in the case of no preparation, we are very easy to cause huge casualties, this is not a wise man's behavior for us, the other is that those large sects are surrounded by countless small sects in the middle, once we pass, I think it doesn't take half the way, they can be completely ready for battle, and we are a labor expedition, not a wise man's doingใ€‚ Kong Ming didn't say it, it was Zhuge Yibu who spoke, and in this case, his explanation was often clearer than Kong Ming's statement.

"Well, Zhuge Gao Shen is right, and our locust warfare method is not an ordinary warfare method, nor is it like locusts to eat up all the food, we just want to knock down those small sects, or snatch them down, and empty all the people above, whether they are cultivators or mortals, and move them to the island we occupy above the sea, in this way, we will emptie those who are better developed, not only monks, but also mortals in large and small towns, after all, our cultivation does not need such a thing as spiritual roots, as long as we give them the method of cultivation, I think where to survive should not be a problemBesides, no empire in the ocean has dared to attack our idea, so the speed of development there will be greatly increased. I think it won't be long before we reach our goal and evacuate here, then this place will soon become a paradise for monsters. At that time, where will the so-called five great sects come from to find trouble for us?" Kong Ming said, he didn't know how to express his own words, and could only use this simple method to describe his tactics - locust tactics, taking all the qiฤ“ directly away, leaving nothing for the enemy.

Hearing this, everyone instantly understood the meaning of Kongming, Mingli is to move away a qiฤ“, in fact, it is to fuse the people of Huatian Continent and the people of Zhongzhou Continent together, simple, direct and effective, and directly solve all grievances in a generation.

"So then do we let the army pull out and go straight over?" asked Li Feizhi.

"No, next we need to target a small sect and carry out an experimental attack, and we need the soldiers to adapt to the enemy's tactics and methods, instead of blindly advancing!" Kong Ming replied. (To be continued......)
