Chapter 118 Winning Strategy
Ning Yiwu finally understood everything at this time, "I understand your deep meaning! But I'm worried that the shadowless old man will personally lead the army to attack my Divine Sword Sect, but I, Ning Yiwu, will shrink behind the tent, this is really detrimental to the hero's style! If the time comes, those soldiers think that I, Ning Yiwu, am so timid and afraid of losing, and let the heroes of the world laugh at it, won't my Divine Sword Sect lose face!"
Zhuge Long shook his head, "The sect master doesn't need to worry, it is true that what the sect master said is extremely reasonable, if the sect master does this, there will indeed be such an adverse effect, but the sect master has already let the young master go to the front line in person, which can make those who want to create public opinion shut up! And compared with the sect master going to the front line in person, the young master coming to the front line in person is more affinable to the younger generation, and it is easier to arouse the courage of the soldiers to move forward!"
"How do you say this? Isn't that kid more amiable than me, don't you see him training soldiers, he and I are two styles at all, he deals with those new soldiers, but whoever doesn't obey military orders is even more ruthless than my heart!" Ning Yiwu asked again with doubts in his heart.
Ning Wujian is also a young and promising young commander, he has a great characteristic of governing the army, that is, he is known for his vigorous and resolute behavior, but anyone who violates the military order will be killed, but there is also a great advantage, that is, after each mission is successful, he never shows off his credit, and gives all the credit to his subordinates, and after the task fails, he first criticizes himself, and then criticizes his subordinates.
This is very rare for a young person, many young people even if they know this truth, but they can't do it, but Ning Wujian can do it.
And these "shadows" trained by Ning Wujian were indeed very satisfying to him.
On the contrary, due to Ning Yiwu's personality, although he knew in his heart that he could not easily treat everyone equally, he always liked to talk and laugh with the soldiers, and this way of governing the army was two different concepts from his son Ning Wuji.
"Our Divine Sword Sect has never grasped strong men, but let the people join the army through the favor of their families, and all the warriors who volunteer to join the army have the heart of comparison, if the young sect master takes the lead in every battle among the younger generation, he will definitely be able to arouse the pride of those loyal warriors, and if the sect master takes the lead in every battle, it will not be able to achieve such an effect among the younger generation!"
Ning Yiwu suddenly became enlightened, "I understand these truths, so the last question, I want to ask the shadowless old man where he will lose in the end? In other words, what method should we use to deal with this victory of less against more?"
This question is the key to all problems, because Ning Yiwu feels that the Shadowless Old Man is not a very easy enemy to deal with, especially since he takes the lead in every battle, which is often the key to Ning Yiwu's headache.
It is true that Zhuge Long is right, this old guy is not a qualified strategist, but he is a qualified tactician, so it is still very difficult to defeat such a military tactician.
Zhuge Long had already noticed that Ning Yiwu's face was a little gloomy, although Ning Yiwu was arrogant at the conference, but as the person who could understand Ning Yiwu best, how did Zhuge Long not know that Ning Yiwu really didn't have a perfect way to deal with the Ten Thousand Swords Sect in his heart.
Ning Yiwu, as the supreme commander of one side, of course, could not say what was in his heart at the combat meeting, if the war had not yet begun, the commander of one side would have retreated, and this war would not have the enemy to attack at all, after all, the commander's will was the key to determining the outcome of the battle, so Ning Yiwu must not be the slightest cowardly above the combat meeting.
Zhuge Long stood in front of Ning Yiwu, paused for a long time, and remembered enough convincing words in his heart, then he bowed with his hands and said slowly: "Why should the sect master worry? Compared with the Shadowless Old Man, your greatest advantage is that you never judge others as poor and wealthy, but treat others with the standard morality of being a person, you will not despise him because of his poverty, nor will you hate him because of his wealth, this is where you are stronger than the Shadowless Old Man!" And the old man without a shadow, he likes to deal with poor soldiers, but he hates those wealthy families who control the wealth, and he will definitely fail because of this. ”
"But hasn't he already restrained himself?" Ning Yiwu asked.
Facing his most relied on henchman, Ning Yiwu's tone was no longer as ambitious as in the Divine Sword Altar.
He is a human being, not a god, not to mention that he is also an excellent military commander, commanding 50,000 elite soldiers against the enemy 200,000 in the martial realm world, how should this war be fought to achieve the final victory?
Ning Yiwu thought about this question over and over again, and thought of one after another strategies against the enemy that he thought were perfect, but he couldn't make up his mind in his heart.
Ning Yiwu's mood is up and down now.
It is true that he knew ten years ago that this war was absolutely unavoidable, due to historical and geographical factors, the Divine Sword Sect and the Ten Thousand Sword Sect can only exist on both sides.
Ning Yiwu had been preparing for this war for ten years, but when this war was really coming, he was very worried in his heart.
Moreover, the most important thing is that after defeating the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, whether the Divine Sword Sect is a miserable victory or a big victory, if it is a tragic victory, wouldn't it make Luohai Tan, Qingyin Valley and other fishermen benefit.
This is what Ning Yiwu is most worried about.
If after this war is fought, the Divine Sword Sect ends up with a miserable victory, and the consequence of the duel between the Ten Thousand Sword Sect and the Divine Sword Sect is that the Divine Sword Sect will be greatly injured from then on, and even collapse in the process of competing for the deer in the future, then what is the significance of this war after the victory?
Thinking of these deep-seated problems, Ning Yiwu was really uneasy.
War is a continuation of politics, if after a fierce battle between the two sides, after the vitality of the Divine Sword Sect is greatly damaged, how can it be continued?
As Ning Yiwu's most relied on confidant, Zhuge Long could no longer understand what this sect master was worried about, in order to dispel Ning Yiwu's inner concerns, his tone became more solemn, "No, once a person has this kind of psychology, it is not so easy to converge, nor is it so easy to change, but it has not yet happened!" If this war is not prepared by our Divine Sword Sect, his psychology will naturally not attack, but once this war is fought for a long time, this will test the mind of a commander, just like the shadowless old man, he will only see his soldiers fighting bloodily in front, but he can't see the hard work of the wealthy families who prepare grain and herbs and pills behind him, once the war enters a stalemate, he will definitely urge the rear to urge money and grain, because his subordinates are specialized in this line of work, so his subordinates know that it is an extremely difficult thing to raise money and food during the war, because war is an act that destroys the economic order, and it is an extremely money-consuming gamble, so it must be much more difficult to raise money and food than in peacetime!"
After Ning Yiwu heard this long speech, he sighed with emotion in his heart.
Ning Yiwu had managed money once, and at that time he thought that this was the most difficult thing in the world, far more than ten times more difficult than commanding a war.
Why do you say that? Because if there is a slight mistake in this, it will be misunderstood, and what kind of person will take a little more and what kind of person will take a little less, this is Ning Yiwu's biggest headache.
In Ning Yiwu's eyes, the outstanding talent of governing the country is by no means a rhetorical person, nor is it an empty talker who talks about benevolence and righteousness, the first point is whether he can manage the money, how to manage the money so that everyone feels reasonable, so that everyone can get his share, and it is also necessary to be able to make wartime reserves for one party's forces, which is completely like Ning Hongyuan's "two ears do not listen to the affairs of the world, and only seek my sword" is more than a thousand times more difficult.
Therefore, at this moment, when Zhuge Long finished saying this, Ning Yiwu couldn't help nodding his head, and said angrily: "I have always known that it is really difficult to manage this money, and it is even more rare to manage the money of tens of millions of people in my Divine Sword Sect like you!
"It is much more difficult to manage money in wartime than in peacetime, and it can even be said that the difficulty is more than ten times, and in troubled times, the key to determining the outcome of the war, in addition to the command art of the suzerain's military commander, is also very important to manage money like his subordinates, and the two must achieve complete mutual trust, because in such a war for hegemony, the soldiers fight for money, and how to reasonably hand over every penny to the hands of the soldiers, so that they can "gain from the war" If the sect master and I can't completely believe me at this time, the victory or defeat of a war will be obvious!
Ning Yiwu laughed heartily, "I don't believe you, I'm going to break up the others today, what are you doing with you alone?" I understand what you mean, in this war, if our Divine Sword Sect wants to win, we have to start with the Shadowless Old Man's distrust of Liu's seniors, what you mean is that we will drag the main force of his Shadowless Old Man into our Divine Sword Sect, and then carry out guerrilla tactics, so that the Shadowless Old Man cannot accurately find the main force of our army, and then wait until the situation changes, and then separate the relationship between him and Liu Qingyi!"
Zhuge Long still folded his hands, "The sect master is wise, once the war is prolonged, this will test the trust between the commander and the finance minister behind him, because of the time, the money and food needed by the soldiers in front often do not meet the established standards, and the old man without a shadow At this time, his hatred of the rich will attack, and he will definitely think that Liu Qingyi's predecessors have embezzled military rations!"
Ning Yiwu suddenly realized, then smiled generously and said, "So that's the case!"
Zhuge Long still bowed with his hands, and said in a more respectful tone: "So my subordinates often say that the old man without a shadow is not a strategist who understands economics, but just a reckless man who commands and fights! As long as the sect master can hold on, they will definitely fight by themselves!"
Ning Yiwu was completely enlightened at this time, and he had a lot of epiphany for a while.
Ning Yiwu nodded, "Okay, if you say that, I will have 10,000 confidence to defeat him! I still thank you very much for these words, which finally gave me 10,000 confidence!"
After saying this, he strode towards the Divine Sword Altar.
At this time, the Divine Sword Altar was already full of people, because these guests who stayed behind, they were the ones who really came here, and since they were really admired, they would not leave the Divine Sword Sect because of those things yesterday.
Every Martial Realm plane has a tradition of advocating heroes, and Ning Yiwu's outstanding performance when he was young swallowed up the arrogance of the alien race, and let the invincible alien completely know what the bloody nature of the people of the Heavenly Domain is.
People are born with the nature of admiring heroes, and this nature is vividly displayed in the hearts of martial artists.
