When two armies face each other, morale comes first.
How to boost the morale of your subordinates before a war has always been a problem.
For this reason, military strategists and famous commanders and generals all have their own experiences.
Those experiences and experiences are summed up and called: the secret that is not passed on!
The specific method of fighting can be taught, and there is this inheritance in the military: the general values someone, so he will teach him his own military skills.
How to fight, this is technology.
And how to boost morale, this is the soul!
It's okay if you have a job, but do you have a soul?
In an army with low morale, you can have millions of troops and throw whips to cut off the flow, but if you have no morale, you will still be a scumbag!
Therefore, there are examples of battles in which a million-strong army was frightened and collapsed by tens of thousands of opponents.
With an army of millions, even one person can drown his opponent by spitting.
Why crash?
Just low morale.
That is to say, there is no soul!
The most common method is encouragement.
Brothers, kill for your majesty!
If the emperor is benevolent and wins the support of the army and the people, then these words will be the blood injected into him, which will make the soldiers scream without fear of life or death.
But if the emperor is stupid...yes, that's right, it's an emperor like Li Mi.
If Yang Xuan shouted, "Kill for your Majesty's sake!"
grass!
Those soldiers will definitely feel that the Duke has taken the wrong medicine, and then their morale will be low.
But Yang Guogong didn't say anything for His Majesty... He wished that Li Mi and his son would die!
Rather!
I said, let him live half a day longer!
The guard general said that reinforcements will arrive within three days.
Three days!
The main force of the Northern Xinjiang Army has not come, and it cannot come easily - the food and grass consumed along the way, and the civilian men who need to be recruited, this is a figure that can make the officials of the Jiedushi Prefecture vomit blood.
The army cannot be moved lightly.
And the army of Beiliao is coming.
What are you waiting for?
No matter who it was, he would have urged his subordinates to attack the city quickly.
In order to boost morale, they will even reward their subordinates - if they capture Longhua Prefecture, the whole army will be rewarded heavily!
I have said that joining the army for thousands of miles is just for money. But money can indeed effectively boost morale.
Then, madly attack the city day and night, this is the kingly way.
But Yang Guogong pointed at the city head, as if he could crush the city with just his fingers.
Where did he get his confidence?
Zhang Yi was stunned.
He Yin was also stunned.
He gave us half a day?
Isn't he afraid that reinforcements will arrive?
Damn it!
Where did he get the courage?
But the soldiers of the Northern Xinjiang Army were on fire!
Morale explodes!
Three days.
Consider it a chicken!
I'll let you attack again in half a day!
Such confidence and pride!
Damn it!
It touched the blood of countless soldiers at once.
"Wan Sheng!"
Zhao Yong raised his spear and shouted!
"Wan Sheng!"
His men were shouting!
"Wan Sheng!"
Tens of thousands of troops, with swords and guns like a forest!
The shouts were like a roaring mountain and a tsunami, which was frightening.
At the top of the city, He Yin looked to the left and right...the faces of the soldiers were slightly pale.
The hand holding the knife and gun actually trembled a little.
This is not AmaoAgou's promise.
This is the disdain coming from the Lord of Northern Territory.
You're just a scumbag!
Want to refute?
What's your rebuttal?
All your rebuttals are nothing but kneeling before Yang Guogong's blinding military exploits.
You analyze it for the soldiers!
You said reinforcements are coming soon!
Where?
Everyone just asked, where are the reinforcements?
Unless Zhang Yi can capture the reinforcements from the air and reach the city, any rebuttal he can make at this moment is feeble.
It will only become Yang Xuan’s background!
Zhang Yi smiled bitterly, "I...lost on the battle record."
If his record can be compared with Yang Xuan, then he can refute it with just one sentence at this moment.
——I said, reinforcements will arrive in three days!
But he is just a governor!
"I..." He opened his mouth and shook his head, "I won't humiliate myself anymore."
"This is a fierce act of lust but a weak heart!" He Yin exploded and shouted crazily: "He knew he couldn't defeat us within three days, so he pretended to be majestic."
Why!
Zhang Yi shook his head slightly, feeling that it was unwise to argue like this.
But maybe the soldiers... will be moved?
Even just a little!
"Cheer up, you only need to hold on for three days. Once the reinforcements arrive, Yang Gou will have no choice but to escape!"
He Yin was walking around the city, roaring.
"Your Majesty is watching you and waiting. As long as you hold on for three days, Ning Xing will be rewarded heavily!"
Why!
Zhang Yi sighed again.
On Ningxing's side, the existence of Lin Ya and Princess Dachang meant that the emperor did not have much money and food at his disposal.
This dispatch of troops cost a lot of money and food.
If you want a big reward, you have to achieve results that shock Ning Xing and make the emperor take action!
otherwise!
Hold it in!
Let him make it up!
It's not a bad thing either.
Under the city, Ning Yayun's sharp eyes found that the morale of the defenders was low, so she asked softly: "Ning Xing's reinforcements are really far away?"
He asked while looking at He Lianyan.
Don't ask me, I don't know either... He Lianyan looked calm.
Yang Xuan said: "I don't know either."
Ning Yayun: "..."
Who are you fooling?
Seeing his suspicion, Yang Xuan emphasized again, "I really don't know."
"If it really comes within three days, you have to rest for half a day, which is quite a trap." After all, Ning Yayun followed Yang Xuan on many expeditions, not just waiting for a hammer. "If you really go all out, I think, we will break through."
There should be no big problems in this city."
"If I didn't have this little bit of self-confidence, why would I lead an army? I'd go home and play with Liang and my second child!"
Yang Xuan pointed to the soldiers, "But if this is the case, how many people will die?"
"You often say that one general can make a thousand bones wither."
"Maybe it would be better to die less." Yang Xuan said: "Every soldier who survives is a seed of the Tang Dynasty.
I am their commander-in-chief, and I can watch them die with indifference. This is the mentality of a commander-in-chief. But even if there is a chance of reducing casualties, I will do my best. All I want is a clear conscience!"
"One is watching them die indifferently."
"This is helpless!"
"Then, doing your best... is your responsibility."
"No, it's the human heart!" Yang Xuan pointed to his heart.
"I heard that Zhang Chumao is quite indifferent to his subordinates, and the same is true for Zhao Song in Western Xinjiang. They only know how to recruit generals, but they have forgotten about the small soldiers. Look at these soldiers..."
Wherever Ning Yayun looked, she saw high morale and respect for Yang Xuan.
"You deserve to be able to take charge of Northern Xinjiang before you are thirty!"
He deserves it!
In addition to destiny, there must be manpower!
Ning Yayunming realized some truths.
"When our army comes from afar, if they can rest for half a day, the soldiers can recover a lot physically and mentally. My words can make the morale of my subordinates soaring. Even if they rest, their morale will not drop. Look at the top of the city again..."
Yang Xuan pointed at the top of the city. Even if he couldn't see clearly, he could still feel the low morale.
"The fighting between the two armies relies on morale, and morale drives momentum. Our army's momentum is like a rainbow." Yang Xuan raised his hand and patted it lightly.
"What I want is to use force to overwhelm others. Move with force and slap them to death! Zhang Yi's pride cannot stop my Tiger Ben!"
My tiger!
Ning Yayun was in a daze for a moment.
It was as if I could see Yang Xuan galloping in front of the battle, with countless soldiers cheering.
Winning!
Long live……
He shook his head, "You actually heard hallucinations? It's probably because I didn't sleep last night."
"Master, sit down!"
Ouda sent a small maza.
Taiping craftsmen heard that the Duke liked to sit on the battlefield, cross his legs, and yell at the other side, so they made more than ten small horses. The local officials took advantage of the time when they came to Taoxian County to do business.
A small ponytail was sent over.
This is the wish of the craftsmen, and Yang Guogong will naturally not chill their hearts.
After some testing, a folding pony was selected.
After he confirmed it, Taiping rewarded the craftsman.
This is a bit much.
Yang Xuan wanted to intervene, but Liu Qing persuaded him.
——Now, you need this!
Yang Xuan was relieved.
yes!
Now he needs this.
Gather momentum with countless reverence!
He sat down, "Headmaster didn't..."
Ning Yayun sat down easily and said, "I never want such things."
Yang Xuan pointed to his feet, "The ground is wet."
"When the inner breath moves, all moisture is in vain." Ning Yayun asked: "Where is the food?"
"You have to ask the second child about this!"
"There is dried meat."
Wang Laoer took out an oil paper bag like a treasure.
"This thing is too hard."
Ning Yayun's eyelids twitched.
Wang Laoer first gave Tu Shang a piece and said, "Tu Gong."
"Headmaster!"
Ning Yayun took the dried meat and squeezed it. She felt that it was not much softer than a horizontal knife.
He chewed hard, and when he looked back, Tu Shang nodded and praised: "It tastes good."
Did you finish eating?
"Good teeth!" Ning Yayun said with some envy, and then asked: "Is there any way to take care of your teeth?"
This is just maintenance, not a secret skill, so there is no need to be taboo.
Tu Shang said calmly: "No one else! Get up early every day and tap your teeth for more than a hundred times. Over time, your teeth will naturally become strong."
Ning Yayun nodded, "Thank you very much."
"You're welcome."
There are not many people that Ning Yayun can ask for advice.
Even Helianrong was ready to go back and give it a try.
"Tu Gong! Give it!"
Wang Laoer casually stuffed a piece of dried meat over and said, "Open your mouth! Ah... open your mouth!"
Tu Shang opened his mouth, his face expressionless...
Ning Yayun always felt like he was crying.
The Tang troops below the city were eating, drinking, resting, and some were even sleeping.
The weather is hot, so don’t worry about catching the cold.
In a flash, the sun was approaching the top of the head.
It's noon.
All the garrison at the top of the city had eaten.
"Morale is not that good!" He Yin yelled with his voice hoarse, "Maybe it would be better not to make that bet with Yang Gou!"
Zhang Yi said quietly: "If I don't make that bet, I'm worried that I won't be able to hold it for three days!"
"How could someone as proud as you be afraid of Yang Gou?" He Yin was a little dissatisfied and felt that his efforts were in vain.
"I am very proud, but no matter how proud I am, it depends on the person." Zhang Yi took a deep breath, "I can't be proud of him. However, I still have blood in my bones, blood that can make him tremble!"
Tang Jun started to get up.
Then it's time to move your body, and then attack.
The time for the decisive battle has arrived.
Zhang Yi kept silently looking around.
Shouted: "Reinforcements are not far away."
The defenders were stunned.
"It's useless." He Yin laughed and cried.
"If reinforcements don't arrive within two days, I..." Zhang Yi climbed up to the top of the city with difficulty, stood up, and gradually stood up tremblingly, pointed at the city and shouted: "If we don't arrive in two days, I will jump down from here.
!”
If you are lucky enough to fall from this height, you won't be able to kill anyone, but if you fall down, you will be captured by the Tang army.
For a proud man like Zhang Yi, being captured was a great shame and humiliation.
"Zhang Yi, that's interesting!" Yang Xuan smiled.
"The morale of the defenders has increased." Ning Yayun said: "I bet that Zhang Yi deliberately held back his words before, and now that he says this, it will be a blow to your head."
"What a bullshit!" Yang Xuan said scornfully: "This is just an empty air, it's useless. Master, just watch and watch how my tigers defeat the enemy!"
The soldiers were moving their hands and feet on the spot.
The same is true for Yang Guogong.
This is a signal!
Zhao Yong saw this and said to his subordinates, "If the Guo Guo can't join the war today, I will fight to the death to protect the Guo Guo!"
The general's participation in the battle can effectively stimulate the morale of his subordinates.
The activity is completed.
Yang Xuan mounted the horse, and Wu Da collected the little horse.
The surrounding area became quiet.
Yang Xuan moved his neck and said: "Ning Xing's reinforcements are indeed coming, but they are far away!
Even if they come, what can we do? Should our army flee?
Go to hell! When they come, let's fight with each other, use horizontal knives and spears to tell them that this is Northern Xinjiang!
This is my northern territory!
This is my territory of the Tang Dynasty!"
Choking!
Yang Xuan drew his sword.
"You guys, do you have the confidence to capture Longhua Prefecture and let this place become the territory of our Tang Dynasty for generations to come?"
Countless swords and guns were brandished.
"have!"
Yang Xuan raised his head and said, "Louder!"
"have!"
"Then go!" Yang Xuan pointed at the city with his horizontal sword, "Knock down Long Huazhou and welcome me into the city with the blood of the enemy!"
Every face turned red.
Snort!
"Attack!"
The flag shook its head.
"The Duke's order, attack!"
"Wan Sheng!"
Amidst the roar, the Northern Xinjiang Army attacked.
At the top of the city, Zhang Yi also shouted hoarsely, "The enemy is coming, hold on for two days, reinforcements will arrive!"
His methods were right.
But one thing I have forgotten is that if you promise too much and swear too much, the effect will be much worse.
In many cases, talking too much is not a good thing!
The ladder hit the city wall heavily, and then the armored soldiers stepped heavily on it.
"kill!"
When spears were stabbed at the top of the city, the warriors either defended with shields, avoided, or blocked with horizontal knives...
Under the city, a crossbowman killed the defender who came out with one arrow.
"Get out of the way!"
A group of fierce soldiers rushed over.
They rushed up the stairs.
The city was in chaos at the moment.
The morale of the Northern Xinjiang Army is as high as a rainbow. Every time a person is killed, they will shout loudly for victory.
"Drive them down!" He Yin shouted, waving his long knife.
Woo!
An iron rod roared towards him, smashing the rest of He Yin's words into his throat.
"Sima died in battle!"
The Northern Xinjiang Army continued to expand its advantage. These second-line defenders could not withstand such an intensity of attack. In addition, the Northern Xinjiang Army under the city kept shouting for victory, and they couldn't help but feel confused.
The envoy said that reinforcements will arrive in two days!
At this time, the people in the city shouted, "The city is broken! The city is broken!"
The Northern Xinjiang Army at the top of the city also shouted.
Psychological warfare!
here we go.
Zhang Yi was playing with this from the beginning.
Yang Xuan said sarcastically: "Is he worthy of playing this with me?"
A group of fierce soldiers from the Northern Xinjiang Army rushed to the bed crossbow and destroyed the bed crossbow at the cost of the two being tied together.
Immediately, Lin Feibao and others came on stage.
"Caught Zhang Yi!"
Zhang Yi was captured alive by the old thief, who took him down like a treasure.
He was brought to Yang Xuanma.
"My lord, this person is Zhang Yi."
"Raise your head." Yang Xuan used the tip of the horizontal knife to lift Zhang Yi's chin. After he raised his head, he said:
"I said that I would crush your so-called pride with my own hands! Are you convinced?"
Proud people refuse to deceive themselves!
Zhang Yi's face was pale, and he looked at Yang Xuan with countless thoughts surging, which eventually turned into powerlessness.
