The first thousand two hundred and ninety-six chapters convince people with virtue
Chapter 1,296: Conquering People with Virtue
The reason why Yang Xuan is able to run wild in the dangerous dark world is not only due to his terrifying combat prowess and his talent in command, it is also inseparable from his infectious pre-war mobilization ability.
Such a thing has happened before.
During an expedition, Yang Xuan personally led his troops to defeat the hostile forces in one fell swoop and captured many surrendered enemies.
Yang Xuan specially set a rule for prisoners. For those prisoners who raised their hands and surrendered and were disarmed, except for some more important or special people, the rest would be released unconditionally on the spot.
Of course, each prisoner only has one chance to be released unconditionally. If he dares to continue to be his enemy and is caught the second time, he will be directly issued a one-way ticket to the underworld.
Yang Xuan did not have the habit of recruiting prisoners. In his eyes, these prisoners who raised their hands to surrender were all cowards, and he did not want to incorporate these cowards into his own team.
However, the situation at that time was quite special. Yang Xuan led his troops to fight continuously, and the loss of soldiers was extremely serious. It was impossible to fill the vacancies within a period of time.
In desperation, we had to make an exception and collect these prisoners who had raised their hands to surrender.
Of course, Yang Xuan didn't have much hope for these prisoners. Most of them were recruited into the team to be used as cannon fodder.
However, what happened next made Yang Xuan's jaw drop.
These cowards who once raised their hands and surrendered immediately at the slightest sign of trouble, suddenly seemed to have changed after they arrived at Yang Xuan's side. They all showed great bravery on the battlefield and rushed wherever the fighting was fiercest.
It is not only Yang Xuan who is confused about this unique phenomenon, but also several of Yang Xuan's old opponents.
They all felt very strange that some of the captured soldiers were theirs before and were incorporated after the defeat.
When those captured soldiers were under his control, they were all old men who were greedy for life and afraid of death.
Once on the battlefield, I never think about how to defeat my opponent, but I think about how to fish in troubled waters to save my life and avoid being discovered by the supervising team.
This method is also very simple. When you have the advantage, just scream and rush and fight. Once you are at a disadvantage, you can do various things, either pretend to be injured or just pretend to be dead.
When the battle situation becomes completely hopeless, jump up immediately and raise your hands to surrender to save your life.
But why are these same people so different when they come to Yang Xuan's side?
Only later did I learn the truth through the mouth of a captured soldier who had been promoted to a key general under Yang Xuan because of his outstanding military exploits.
The man's original words at that time were as follows: "After I was taken in there, at first I was thinking about how to save my life all the time. I even thought about the posture I would use when pretending to be dead."
"But after a pre-war mobilization meeting, my whole person suddenly changed. I only had ideals and hatred in my mind, and I felt like the blood in my whole body was boiling."
"After a battle, I had more than a dozen colors on my body, and I walked around the gate of hell several times."
"But the strange thing is that I don't feel scared at all, and I can't wait to continue participating in the second battle."
"Our leader is so powerful. As long as he holds a pre-war mobilization meeting in person, even if a group of rabbits hear it, they will prick up their ears and howl and rush forward to fight the tigers."
This passage vividly shows the power of Yang Xuan's mobilization before the war.
Later, after other forces learned about this, they also paid attention to pre-war mobilization.
In order to better imitate them, they even spent a lot of money and a lot of thought, and finally got a complete video of Yang Xuan's mobilization before the war.
They carefully memorized every word Yang Xuan said, knowing it by heart, and then imitated Yang Xuan's movements and tone of voice, even his tone of voice.
However, no matter how similar they imitate, the effect is never seen.
The same words, the same tone, and the same posture are completely different when spoken from Yang Xuan's mouth and from someone else's mouth.
Until now, there are still many imitators who have not understood the principles involved and think that the lack of effect is because they have not imitated it well enough.
When Yang Xuan found out about this later, he almost got internal injuries from laughing on the spot.
No wonder these idiots are often tortured and tortured, and they are still alive and kicking with their little intelligence until now they are already lying in the graves of their ancestors.
Regarding the pre-war mobilization rally, the content of the speech is indeed very important. It must not only be able to mobilize everyone's emotions, but also must be clear and logical, and must be able to grasp everyone's pain points.
But this is not the most important thing, because speaking must be a two-way process, and someone must listen to what you say to be effective.
And this depends on the commander's personality and conduct.
After gathering those prisoners, Yang Xuan issued strict orders. Now that they have been gathered, they are his brothers.
No one can treat them differently, let alone bully these prisoners. Anyone who dares to offend will be severely punished regardless of their status!
And not only that, under special circumstances, such as when there is a shortage of supplies, these captive soldiers must be given priority.
This is also a characteristic of Yang Xuan's character. He sincerely despises those who surrender, so he rarely takes in these prisoners.
But now that they have been incorporated, they must maximize their role.
At first, many people did not understand Yang Xuan's approach. They felt that these prisoners had been their enemies, and many of them even had the blood of their brothers on their hands.
Now that they are brought in, not only are they not allowed to beat or scold them, but they must also be given priority. Where in the world can there be such a reason?
But complaints are complaints, and everyone can only unconditionally obey the orders given by Yang Xuan, and these complaints can only be kept in their hearts.
But soon they discovered that Yang Xuan's trick was so useful!
When those prisoners were first brought in, everyone was cautious and prepared to be bullied and beaten.
However, these prisoners soon discovered that not only were they not bullied in any way, but everyone was extremely friendly to them, as if they had completely forgotten their identity as prisoners.
Because that battle was an expedition, the troops were far away from the base camp, and fighting was very frequent, so it was easy for material shortages to occur.
However, these captives didn't think so at first. They just thought that the big forces were really different and they were capable.
After walking for such a long time, not only did the three meals a day never decrease, but I also had to eat meat at almost every meal.
Until one time, a captive soldier accidentally discovered that not everyone eats meat every day.
Except for them, the captured prisoners, the rest of the people actually ate rice bran buns and wild vegetable soup!
