Why are there so many battles in history where a small number of people defeated a large number?
The main reason is the difference in team unity, which is the so-called morale.
Imagine that one side has an army of millions, but the morale of the army is disorganized, and all the soldiers have to join the army as a last resort. If a war really breaks out, it will definitely be like a pile of scattered sand.
On the other side, the number may be far insufficient, even if it is only tens of thousands of people, but if they unite as one, they all have the will to fight.
Even though the numerical gap between the two sides is huge, it is difficult to say the outcome in a real fight.
In the east there was the Battle of Guandu and the Battle of Chibi, and in the west there were three hundred Spartan warriors who resisted a million-strong Persian army.
These are all living examples.
Therefore, Muchuan felt that the two hundred or so people left behind now were much stronger than the more than a thousand before.
Apart from anything else, Muchuan randomly selected among these two hundred people, and no one was unwilling to go to the Holy Mountain.
This awareness alone is extremely precious.
After Muchuan selected a dozen elites, he led them into Pibo City.
Since all the ghost-faced troops had taken off their armor and masks, the troops in Pibo City did not doubt the identity of Muchuan and his party.
Someone like Muchuan, who is dressed in noble clothes, likes to bring a lot of followers, but someone like Muchuan, who only brings a dozen or so people, is even considered to be short of manpower.
After entering the city, Muchuan purchased a large amount of supplies.
This time we go deep into the Holy Mountain. Although there is a map, we can break through the maze and reach the otherworldly place deep in the Holy Mountain.
But you still have to walk on the snow-capped mountains for a long time, so you must prepare enough supplies.
Fortunately, a lot of valuable jewelry was obtained from the darkroom earlier. These jewelry were sold for a lot of money, which was more than enough to purchase supplies.
After a whole day of shopping, Muchuan prepared enough portable fuel, food, tents, and warm clothing.
With the blessing of these things, Muchuan and his group can spend at least half a month wandering in the holy mountain as long as they don't encounter an avalanche.
Although half a month is not a long time, it is completely enough to find the otherworldly places marked on the map.
If he still hadn't found it after half a month, there was no need for Muchuan to continue searching. Any further search would be a waste of time.
After making all preparations, Muchuan found the local official and applied to him for the qualification to enter the Holy Mountain.
The main reason why Tubo wanted to rebuild Pibo City was to control the entrance to the Holy Mountain.
Although the Holy Mountain is huge, there are very few decent intersections.
In Tubo, the only way to enter the Holy Mountain relatively safely is through the entrance to Pibo City.
Therefore, Pibo City is of great significance. By rebuilding this city, the Tubo Kingdom regained control of the entrance to the Holy Mountain, thus having a stable income.
You must know that there are a large number of fanatical believers in the Western Regions, and their admiration for the Holy Mountain has reached an outrageous level.
If the Tubo Kingdom did not control the entrance to the Holy Mountain, then a large number of fanatic believers would come to die every day.
However, the Tubo Kingdom controlled the entrance and set a very high ticket price.
This immediately blocked most of the fanatic believers from the door.
These fanatical believers certainly want to enter the Holy Mountain, but they have no money, and they will not engage in quick money-making activities such as crowing and stealing, because although they are fanatical about their beliefs, they are not crazy evil people.
The Tibetan officials are also kind-hearted and give these fanatical believers the opportunity to make money. As long as they join the official labor team, they can receive a considerable amount of money every month.
Of course, the jobs faced by these fanatical believers are all very dangerous, the kind that ordinary people would not do no matter how much money they are given.
Fanatic believers are not ordinary people. They are not afraid of danger for their faith, and they all go there happily.
In fact, they don't even want money, they just hope that after working hard, they can get a chance to enter the Holy Mountain.
This is also the reason why Tubo has developed so rapidly in recent years.
Just imagine, whichever country has such a group of tool people who are not afraid of losses or tiredness, and who don’t even need money, will be able to become strong quickly!
All in all, if outsiders want to enter the Holy Mountain, they need to pay a very high fee.
Muchuan thought the fee shouldn't be very high at first, but when he asked, he was shocked.
One hundred taels per person!
This price is not an exaggeration, it can only be said to be shocking.
You know, for ordinary people, one hundred taels can last a lifetime if they are used sparingly.
Who in the right mind would spend a hundred taels to go to the holy mountain to die?
Muchuan had no choice but to spend the amount of money corresponding to the person's head to buy the qualification to enter the mountain.
The official staff were also shocked. People like Muchuan who came from out of town had some interest in the Holy Mountain, and they had seen a lot of it before.
However, every time they mentioned the price, these people all backed down on the spot.
There are many rich people in this world, but rich people are not fools. They cannot spend tens of thousands of money to find happiness in the snow-capped mountains.
However, Muchuan happily took out the money, which really surprised the officials.
I didn't expect it, but I didn't expect it, but when faced with the money that came to my door, there was no reason to turn a blind eye.
The official received the money and took Muchuan and his party to the entrance of the Holy Mountain.
Soon, everyone arrived at the entrance of the Holy Mountain.
As mentioned in the previous article, the entrance to the Holy Mountain is in the old city.
Although it is located in the old city, it is actually somewhat different from the old city.
Different from the old city in the killing game, the old city where the entrance to the Holy Mountain is located is in another urban area.
This can effectively prevent fare evasion and prevent residents of the old city from fleeing to the Holy Mountain, although entering the Holy Mountain is no different from death.
Although this area belongs to the old city, it is quite well-preserved. It seems that when the rebels invaded Pibo City, they did not burn, kill, and loot this place. After all, this is at the foot of the Holy Mountain, and the soldiers still led them more or less.
Somewhat awed.
This urban area is located in the mouth of a large gorge, which leads directly to the Holy Mountain. It also has the feeling of a natural passage, giving people the illusion of truly leading to another world.
Muchuan stood in front of the entrance, looking at the long and narrow but majestic passage, he couldn't help but sigh.
This is the miraculous workmanship of nature. If a passage like this were to be built artificially, even in the 21st century with advanced technology, it would probably take decades of hard work to achieve it.
However, there is no artificial addition in all of this, it is completely natural.
Anyone who sees it can't help but sigh a few words.
