Wei Dakui sneered and said: "You can stand and talk without pain in your back. If our thousand soldiers and horses hadn't come, the seven or eight hundred pieces of your county town would have been destroyed long ago. You didn't make any preparations in advance. At least everyone has to hold the bow and arrow."
Look at your people. When others attack the city, you just stare. You only throw stones and logs. After throwing all the things, you are dumbfounded. You still say that you are fully prepared. Is this fully prepared? Laughter
I’m dead.”
Zhao Youji blushed and said: "I was only given a few days to breathe. When the bandits started to attack, I and Huang County Lieutenant immediately prepared to defend the city. What could I do? Our small county of Yangwu is barren and poor. How can we have money to train the regiment?"
The detectives are preparing their bows and arrows. Your imperial army is fully equipped, so how did you fall into someone else's trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain? If you want to laugh, it's the county that laughs at you. This county has done its best."
"How dare you mock our imperial army? mock His Highness the King of Jin and Marquis Du Yu? You, a little county magistrate, are really brave. You don't want to live a good life, do you?" Wei Dakui shouted.
"As soon as Yangwu is defeated, this county is determined to live in harmony with it. It has no intention of living at all. How can we expect to live a good life?" Zhao Youji said coldly.
"You..." Wei Dakui pointed at Zhao Youji and glared.
"Both of you, please say less. At this moment, you two were arguing loudly. What did the soldiers think? None of the soldiers complained, but you two started to quarrel first. It's really unreasonable.
." Lin Jue said in a deep voice.
Although Lin Jue's voice was not loud, his tone was very stern. When Zhao Youji and Wei Dakui heard this, their faces looked ashamed and they immediately shut up.
"Wei Dutou, Mr. Zhao. I just thought about it. If we want to defend Yangwu now, until the reinforcements arrive, I'm afraid we can't stick to the old rules. We will definitely not be able to defend the city by forcefully defending it. The opponent will just use wheel fighting.
It can exhaust us to death. What's more, we have run out of supplies. We can't stop the opponent by smashing rocks and wood. I think we should make a surprise move." Lin Jue looked at the fog below the city with his hands behind his hands, thinking in his heart.
A bold idea.
"Master Lin, what is this strange move? Tell me quickly." Wei Dakui's eyes widened and he asked hurriedly.
Zhao Youji and others also looked at Lin Jue expectantly. Master Lin had a solution, which was a life-saving straw at this time.
Lin Juedao: "My unique trick is to turn passivity into initiative. We must take the initiative."
"Ah? Taking the initiative... to attack?" Everyone was stunned and stunned, dumbfounded.
Wei Dakui frowned and thought: This is indeed unreliable. After all, he is a scholar and has no military knowledge. At this time, there is no talk of taking the initiative. With what attack? With chickens and Bamao?
Zhao Youji looked at Lin Jue speechlessly, and his rising hope was instantly shattered. What kind of idea was this to take the initiative? Mr. Lin was so anxious that he was stupid.
Lin Jue ignored everyone's shocked expressions and said in a deep voice: "In this current situation, the bandits are replenishing their physical strength and accumulating strength. After a while, they will definitely launch another fierce attack. By then, the city will be in danger. Instead of doing this
, why not win by surprise? They would never have thought that we would dare to take the initiative, but we decided to give them a surprise. You must think that I have lost my mind, but I am not confused. Don't forget that we have the conditions to attack.
"
Zhao Youji frowned and said: "Mr. Lin, I am not pouring cold water on you, but taking the initiative... I'm afraid it will be difficult to carry out. It is difficult for us to defend the city, so abandoning the city and taking the initiative is probably not a good strategy."
Lin Jue smiled and said: "Magistrate Zhao, you have misunderstood me. I did not say that I would give up the defense of the city and take the initiative. I only need part of the manpower. Could it be that you have forgotten that we still have three hundred cavalry. Right now
The morning fog has risen, which is good for us to leave the city for a sneak attack. My principle is to attack quickly and withdraw quickly, with the main purpose of disturbing the enemy and the secondary purpose of killing the enemy."
Zhao Youji frowned and said, "But how many enemies can these three hundred cavalry kill? What's the point of doing this?"
Lin Jue laughed and said: "I said, the main thing is to harass the enemy, and the second thing is to kill the enemy. It doesn't really matter how many enemies you kill. The important thing is to let the bandits understand one thing. They don't have the upper hand. We even
Dare to go out of the city to fight with them. Guys, please don't forget that fighting is not a battle of force. To a certain extent, fighting is also about strategy and psychology. If a strong man with a big sword is as timid as a mouse, he may not dare
Fight against a boy with a stick. Whoever has the upper hand psychologically is often the victor. Taking the initiative is not to kill many enemies, but to tell the bandits that we are not afraid of them at all. Not only can we defend
The city, and they dare to go out of the city and take the initiative to attack. This will be a huge psychological pressure for them."
Zhao Youji nodded slightly and said: "Destroy their morale and take away their courage. When two armies fight, only the fearless can defeat the enemy and win."
Lin Jue laughed and said: "That's right. I didn't expect County Magistrate Zhao to have read "The Art of War of King Xiang"."
Zhao Youji said calmly: "A little bit involved."
Lin Jue said in a deep voice: "This is exactly what we want to do. To psychologically undermine their morale. Just after the battle, they must have thought that they had the upper hand, and now their morale must be high. But think about it, if the three hundred cavalry
Rushing through the camp, killing people and running away, what a psychological blow to the opponent. If you are lucky, you can kill a few bosses. The significance of this move is not to kill people, but to deprive them of their morale. In the end, these teachings
Most of the bandits are ordinary people, and their psychological endurance is not strong. You don't really think that they are not afraid of death. In fact, they were so scared that they wet their pants, but they were forced to attack."
Wei Dakui has never heard of such a theory, such as psychological shock and psychological blow. What the hell are you talking about? What he knows is that fighting is fought with real swords and guns. The white knife goes in and the red knife comes out.
, chop off the opponent's arms and head, and the blood and flesh are flying everywhere, this is war. What is psychology? What the hell is psychologically shocking the opponent? Can it work?
"Mr. Lin, what's the use of doing this? What's the use of psychological shock and it can't drop fast meat?" Wei Dakui rolled his eyes and said.
Lin Jue smiled and said: "With Wei Dutou's knowledge, it is difficult for me to explain it to you. Wei Dutou, let me ask you, if you dared to break into the bandit's lair alone to kill people, but could escape unscathed, what would you think in your heart?
How does it feel? How does the other person feel?"
Wei Dutou said: "Of course I am proud. Of course my opponent is unhappy."
"Yeah, that's it. The so-called psychological shock, to put it bluntly, is to increase one's prestige and demoralize the enemy. Morale cannot be discouraged. Once morale is discouraged, it will be useless no matter how many soldiers and horses are there, because without fighting spirit, it is
Mob. That’s what I’m going to do.”
Wei Dakui frowned and said, "It sounds like there is some truth to it."
Zhao Youji said: "But Mr. Lin, although this move may have the effect of psychologically damaging the opponent, it will take huge risks. Is this appropriate? We originally have few manpower. If we fall into the enemy camp and lose our manpower, wouldn't it be counterproductive?"
Lin Jue laughed loudly and said: "Magistrate Zhao, those people opposite are not a threat to the cavalry. They need equipment but no equipment, and they need weapons but no weapons. They are just a group of people who have been deceived. You have never seen the power of the cavalry. They all say
The cavalry is a nightmare to the infantry. They can kill ten of them. I think one of the people on the opposite side can be worth a hundred. Of course, I reiterate, I am not trying to kill many of them. My plan is to kill three hundred cavalry.
Charge into the formation and shoot with bows and crossbows. Stop when you see fit and never entangle. The opponent will be far behind. Moreover, going out of the city to attack proactively is not just a consideration in this aspect. I also want to use the mobility and flexibility of these three hundred cavalry to contain the instructors.
The bandits are attacking the city. This may be more difficult, but we don’t have many choices at the moment. I have already decided, what do you say?”
"Since the Lord said so, I have nothing to say. It depends on Wei Dutou's opinion. After all, the danger of attacking the camp like this is huge." Zhao Youji finally stopped questioning. This matter may not go as Lord Lin said.
There is no miraculous effect like that, but if you can escape unscathed, there is no harm. Since there is no harm, then there is nothing to object to.
Wei Dakui was a little hesitant. He still felt that it was not necessary. Lin Jue's idea really made him feel that it was a bit taken for granted and a bit rash. The key was that if three hundred cavalry attacked, he would have to take the risk.
Lin Jue did not wait for Wei Dakui's opinion. He seemed to have read Wei Dakui's thoughts and said with a smile: "Wei Dutou, you sit at the top of the city. This idea was proposed by me. I will lead people to attack the camp.
All you need to do is order the one hundred cavalry to obey my orders, and the rest is waiting for the good show."
"What? Mr. Lin goes there in person? It can't be done, how can it be done? Mr. Lin is not a lieutenant general in the army, how can he do this?" Zhao Youji waved his hands in surprise: "This matter should be the responsibility of the capital of Wei, how can we let Mr. Lin do it?
Do it?”
Wei Dakui also felt that he was deeply despised. He frowned and said: "Master Lin, do you think that I, Wei Dakui, am a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? If you let a scholar like you do this kind of thing, why should we soldiers do it?"
What to do?"
Lin Jue laughed and said: "You two are overthinking. I went because Wei Dutou had to stay in the city to guard against the enemy. I didn't say that Wei Dutou was a greedy person who was afraid of death. As for me being a scholar, I couldn't get on the horse.
I don't agree with killing the enemy. Although I am a scholar, I have learned six arts since ancient times. Among them is the art of riding and archery. Lin is not talented, but he still learned riding and archery. Do you think I am incapable of tying a chicken?
Then you are wrong."
"No matter what, I'll go if you want to, but I can't let you go. If you spread the word, it would make people laugh at me, Wei Dakui." Wei Dakui waved his hand and shouted.
Lin Jue shouted sternly: "Wei Dutou, I am not discussing this with you. This matter must be handled by me. You, Wei Dutou, have the heavy responsibility of defending the city. The imperial guards at the top of the city are all your subordinates, and they only listen to you."
Order. I can't overstep my authority. If you, the leader of the Wei capital, lead the cavalry to attack the camp, and something goes wrong, it will be chaos. Even if I miss, it will not affect the defense of the city. It will be dawn soon, at the head of the Wei capital.
Okay. If you don’t want my plan to fail, don’t say anything and give the order immediately. This matter can’t be delayed.”
Wei Dakui rolled his eyes helplessly and stared at Lin Jue. Lin Jue's eyes were firm and he had already begun to put on the armor with Bai Bing's help. Wei Dakui finally sighed and nodded: "Master Lin, since you insist on this, I can only agree.
But you can't have any accidents. You can't withdraw your whole body just for convenience. If you have any shortcomings, I can't bear the responsibility. You can't kill me even if you are worried."
Lin Jue laughed and said: "So you're worried about this, don't worry. I, Lin Jue, am a lovely wife and concubine. I just had a son recently. I won't die. Don't worry. You are cheering for us from the top of the city."
