Chapter 3561 Who can be blessed?

Chapter 3560 Who can be blessed?

The sun shines down, reflecting the blood and energy rising between the mountain roads.

Broken shields and battle flags floated on the surface of the Danshui River, and human limbs meandered down the river.

The smell of burnt flesh and blood mixed in the air attracted some gluttonous eagle birds and crows to circling over the battlefield, staring at the flesh and blood hungrily, but was so shocked by the screams coming and going below that they dared not fall.

If the world dispute between Fei Qian and Cao Cao is like a game of chess, then Zhao Yun, Wei Yan, Zhang Liao and others, even Liao Hua and Li Dian, are all chess pieces on this chessboard, fighting each other for territory.

At each intersection on the board, only one piece is allowed to reside.

The chess piece falls, either eats other pieces, or is eaten by other pieces.

If you focus your eyes at the mouth of Danjiang River and only look at the formation set up by Cao Ren, it is more like chess than Go.

The Dan River and Han River are the borders, and Cao Ren stationed his troops here.

Whether it is Liao Hua or Li Dian, if you want to continue to attack Jingxiang south, you must break through this key point.

When playing chess, of course there will be a dug piece.

Whether a soldier eats a soldier or a cannon replaces a horse, the ultimate goal is to directly defeat the enemy general.

If you can win, you will naturally have another chance to play chess.

If you lose, you will have nothing and you will no longer be able to sit next to the chessboard. At this time, even if there are still carriages, horses and cannons left on the chessboard, it has nothing to do with the chess player...

Saving chess pieces is of course important, but the final winner is even more important!

Cao Ren stood on the temporary observation deck, holding the bronze flag with white knuckles.

He was so familiar with the bloody smell of the battlefield...

It is the smell of rotten trust and fresh life steaming together.

"Transfer to the commander of the army! One person retreats, behead the commander of the sergeant! One person retreats, behead the commander of the army! One person retreats, behead the commander of the army! Qu Chang retreats, behead the commander of the army!"

Cao Ren shouted loudly, his voice full of blood.

It is obviously cruel and not kind enough, but what can it be?

Didn’t the people who knelt on the ground and begged for surrender long for benevolence and righteousness?

What is the result?

Renyi cannot save the people of Xuzhou, nor can Cao Ren himself!

The sword that he waved down back then was also Cao Ren himself cut off the last trace of innocence of the word "benevolence and righteousness".

...

...

The three-colored flag appeared on the battlefield. Liao Hua sent some of the vanguard troops to bypass the mountain pass in Yingzui Bay, surround the west side of Cao Ren, and attacked Cao Ren's west flank. However, halfway through, he found that Cao's army was ambushing at the mountain pass, and arrows shot down like raindrops.

On the other hand, Li Dian also launched an offensive against Cao Ren's front.

Although Cao Ren sent a suicide squad to burn Li Dian's wooden equipment, it did not have much impact on Li Dian's military strength. Now I know that Liao Hua has also appeared in the north of Cao Ren, which means that he naturally cooperated to advance and there is no need to hold back.

As soon as the war began, Liao Hua and Li Dian believed that Cao Ren would inevitably have omissions when guarding the two lines. Even if he could not conquer Danjiangkou in one fell swoop, there would be at least one or two small victories. However, after the battle started, he realized that the war did not mean that he could win, but he would definitely win.

At least not the case now.

"Take that place down!"

Liao Hua's military academy pointed at the hill where Cao Ren's army was stationed and shouted.

This position is not big, but the position of the road is stuck. Whether you want to go around or face the breakthrough, it is hindered. Moreover, the Cao family's banner is still planted on the top of the mountain, standing on a high place, which has long been disliked.

"The Cao army is just that little bit of people, kill them all..."

The shouting was like this, but unexpectedly, the battle of attacking the mountain continued from morning to afternoon and still failed to fight.

The grenade has also been used for two rounds, but the effect is not good.

One is that whether it is Liao Hua or other cavalry troops, they did not teach how to use heaters from the first day of joining the army, and they have decades or even hundreds of years of experience in using heaters to learn. At present, even if there is gunpowder, how to use it and how to use it is the most appropriate thing. It is not that the grenade is issued, so that every warrior can receive a grenade manual and immediately understand how to use it...

Obviously, throwing grenades from the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain must require some skills. Moreover, this technique is extremely dangerous, at least not as easy as keyboard warriors spitting water. Even if the keyboard warriors hold firecrackers during the Chinese New Year, they know that it takes three seconds to burn the firecrackers, and count to two and then throw them, they can explode in the air, but how many keyboard warriors can hold the little firecrackers? What's more, once the grenade explodes around them, it will not hurt two fingers!

The grenade was not effective, and the momentum of the offensive was immediately hindered.

When the sun began to go west, Liao Hua's forward soldiers who had eaten the front line to supplement lunch food took turns to replace their comrades who could not capture the mountain for a long time and began to charge more powerfully.

War is undoubtedly the most evolutionary environment.

People who don’t know how to adapt are dead, and those who can survive are some means.

The same is true for Cao Ren.

The trenches before the position had been filled with several passages by previous attacks, and several earthen walls used by Cao's army to resist arrows were also dug down.

Although these simple trenches and earthen walls were simply dragging the forward of Liao Hua.

Finally, Liao Hua's vanguard rushed through the line of defense.

『Kill up!』

『Bang!』

A charger Liao Hua's vanguard soldier rushed into the camp of Cao's army. Suddenly someone rushed over and slashed with one knife. After the two collided, they immediately started to fight and rolled into a trench full of corpses.

The vanguard of Liao Hua felt that the Cao army soldier on his body was trying to take away the knife from his hand, and hurriedly grabbed it.

The two of them urged and scolded while strengthening.

Suddenly, the soldiers of Liao Hua's vanguard heard the accent of the soldiers of the Cao army, "You... are you from Nanxiang?"

The Cao army soldiers were stunned for a moment, and their hands were slowed down a little.

"You are from Nanxiang, right? I heard it... Stop beating, surrender, I will protect you..."

"All scammers are all liars!" The Cao army soldier responded, "You are all liars!"

"Surrender! I am also from Nanxiang... I will protect you... Which village are you from..."

『I...ah!"

"puff."

The other Liao Hua vanguard soldiers who had passed by saw the two of them fighting, and the Cao army soldiers seemed to have gained the upper hand again. They even shot them without thinking and stabbed them into his body from the crack of the Cao army's armor.

"Well……"

The Liao Hua's vanguard soldier who was knocked into the ditch was stunned for a moment, but the next moment, the seriously injured and dying Cao's soldiers held the tip of the spear that was coming out of their bodies and rushed down...

"puff……"

Two pairs of bloody eyes looked at each other.

"Members..."

『My surname is Cao...ah...』

In the trench, the blood of the two children from Nanxiang blended together.

At the last moment, the dying Cao soldier suddenly had a clear pupil. He remembered that when he left Nanxiang, his mother stuffed dried mugwort into his amulet; he remembered that when he parted at the ferry, the childhood sweetheart girl had red eyes and said that she would wait for him to come back to get a job.

At this moment, his blood and the blood of the same Nanxiang people gathered in the cracks of the armor. It was impossible to tell which drop came from Mianshui and which drop came from Zhanghe.

...

...

"Where are left-wing deer forts, use wooden boards to block the gap!"

Cao Ren was adjusting his troops almost at all times and coordinating the soldiers.

From morning to afternoon, his hoarse voice torn the twilight.

He also saw the two soldiers falling into the trench, and perhaps the two soldiers would lie in the same place and rot together in the future.

The dead have eliminated their hatred, but the remaining living people are still struggling in life and death.

But Cao Ren didn't care about those things, after all, there were casualties everywhere on the front line.

At the pass of Yingzui Bay, Liao Hua's third wave of attack was retreating.

The vanguard Liao Hua, who was rushing forward, was pierced by the soles of his feet by the caltrops and was crawling back with blood marks.

Some cavalry soldiers rushed forward, raised their shields, blocked the arrows that the Cao army soldiers were chasing down, and then half-tugged the wounded soldiers back to a safe position...

"Come! Take the wounded soldiers on the front line to the back!"

Cao Ren ordered, his voice was as hoarse as sand and gravel sharpened each other.

Without comparison, there is no harm.

If Cao's army had been on the battlefield before, he would be self-confidence. How could there be any reason to spend extra manpower and risk rescue of the wounded?

It would be great if you don’t stuff the injured weak soldiers under the horse’s hooves as stepping stones…

But with the cavalry army doing this under their noses, Cao Ren had to do the same.

Just like the Midi had such a high social welfare only when he had a Big Bear. When the Big Bear collapsed, what's the point? Some people really think that a single tyrant could use 300-year welfare funds?

Cao Ren was relieved when he saw Liao Hua's forward retreat.

His most fear is that he will collapse at once!

As long as you can persist in the first time, you will be able to have a second time...

This is also why Cao Ren insisted on being on the front line and personally commanded it. It was indeed with Cao Ren commanding on the front line that the entire Cao army front withstood Liao Hua's attack.

For example, the temporary decision to rescue the wounded soldiers was also an order issued by Cao Ren on the scene. Otherwise, if the general military academy did this, even if it was victorious after the war, it would be a crime to be charged with a heart-wrenching crime!

"Master, drink some water..."

The personal guard handed over the water bag.

Cao Ren took it and raised the water bag. When the sour and smelly water slid across his throat, it seemed like countless small needles were pricked.

『Ahem cough cough…』

Cao Ren couldn't help coughing.

"Master!" The guard stepped forward with some concern.

"No...it's okay..."

Cao Ren waved his hand and subconsciously tried to apply a slight snot and saliva from coughing, but was pulled into pain by the slashes of the sleeves on his arm, and even felt blood coming out.

『Haha…』 Seeing that he was so embarrassed, Cao Ren laughed, 『Don’t worry about me… Go, I’ll give you an order to reward the crossbowman today!』

Today's defense was successful, and Cao's crossbowmen made an indelible contribution.

Especially when Cao Ren saw that Liao Hua's vanguard soldier was about to throw a grenade, his heart almost jumped out of his throat...

Fortunately, the pre-arranged crossbowman played a role.

Cao Ren saw with his own eyes that a Hussar soldiers tried to throw grenades. When they were igniting the fuse, they were shot into the shoulder blade by a crossbow arrow while throwing. The grenades emitting blue smoke rolled into the formation of Hussar soldiers. When they enveloped the surrounding people under fireworks, they clenched their fists excitedly and cheered loudly!

Of course, there are many things that have ruined Cao Ren.

Not only the supervisor team, but also Cao Ren himself killed three non-commissioned officers and military academy.

There are even tribe members with the surname Cao...

However, at some point, Cao Ren caught a glimpse of the exposed peace talisman on the belt of the Cao clan's corpse.

Like the one on his belt, the front is embroidered with "Cao" and the back is embroidered with "Fu"...

Who can be blessed in a chaotic world?

The copper whistle of the cavalry came from the foot of the mountain, and Cao Ren's eyes gathered again. He knew that the chess game would continue until the last Cao family's child turned into a piece of blood mud on the chess board.

...

...

From cognition to action, it is a long process.

Different historical stages have different control methods, but the deep commonalities of their power operation are the same.

The Cao army soldiers knew that the cavalry was treated well, and some of them surrendered to Liao Hua, but will the other Cao army soldiers surrender on a large scale?

Obviously impossible.

The lower the Cao army soldiers, the more likely they are to be shaken, while the Central Leadership Army under Cao Ren's command is extremely difficult to persuade to surrender.

Because Cao Cao encountered a large-scale defection of soldiers in his early years, he was almost killed in the tent by the defeated soldiers at midnight. Therefore, Cao Cao had very strict control over the military law of soldiers, created a technical "co-co-sitting system", and specially issued the "Infantry War Order" to stipulate that "one army will be defeated, the squad leader will be killed; one team will be rushed to the north, and the captain will be killed", and other details were cut into the military organization as the smallest combat unit. Not only did the responsible person be determined, but the masses will also be mobilized... Oh, the means of mobilizing soldiers to keep the soldiers to death were used to the extreme.

The "Scholars' system" created by Cao Cao concentrated the families of soldiers and families to form a dual identity of "military and civilian status". When using the law flexibly, it should enjoy the benefits of the military, and it becomes a civilian. Once the incident is committed, it becomes a severe punishment for military law!

This method is not clever, but it is very effective.

Just like the later generations of Midi, I wished that everything would be paid in installments. The purpose of mortgage loans and car loans was to monetize the future labor value of the people in advance. Once there was any "wrong" in the people, they would be houses, cars and family.

Midi will also use credit ratings, such as users with credit scores and how many points are lower than those, consumer credit will be greatly reduced, showing its social screening function. In essence, it uses digital encoding to reconstruct social identity, which is similar to Cao Jun's "Scholar's System".

Not only that, cognitive manipulation will be carried out on consumerism, and through the symbolic construction of some advocated "lifestyle", material possession and identity are bound. This psychological control is more permeable than any military law.

Cao's army controlled the soldiers, and perhaps even those who were forced to obey under the sword and axe, but the people in the Mi Emperor took the initiative to sign a loan contract "free choice"...

Is it a lack of cognition or something else?

For Cao's soldiers, even though they knew they would die, why didn't they escape and surrender?

But from a different perspective, for those people among the Midi, why don’t they resist even though they know they are exploited?

I'm afraid that even if the keyboard warrior comes, he can only angrily change the topic and say that it's flooding again...

At least at this time, Liao Hua's attack was not as smooth as expected. After a day, he could not seize any effective progress, but instead made his soldiers and military academy a little anxious.

After successfully winning Danshui County and Shunyang County, some soldiers and military academies began to discuss, saying that they could go to Xiangyang in ten days and Jingzhou in one month...

But who would have thought that just such a small position on the mountain would block Liao Hua's forward's way?

『Ming Jin to withdraw his troops!』

Liao Hua frowned and ordered.

"Captain! It's still early now, let me take my people to rush forward again!"

The military academy said anxiously.

Liao Hua shook his head, "There are too many damages... Even if you hit that mountain, do you see that there is no behind?"

Liao Hua pointed at the rear of the Cao army's front.

Behind that mountain, there was obviously Cao's reserve team.

"We have to defend ourselves after fighting, and then we will pull up with Cao's army in this area, so our troops cannot be expanded," Liao Hua said in a deep voice, "And they have a good location, so we will suffer a loss in this way."

Before the attack, Liao Hua had done corresponding research on the county towns along Danshui and formulated an offensive plan. However, Liao Hua did not expect that Cao Ren would abandon the original defense system of the county town and directly built military camps at Danjiangkou, digging trenches, pile up stone strips and wood to defend.

Even the smallest mountain city in the county town has a certain entry and exit passage, and fixed defense mechanisms such as city gate suspension bridges. Once destroyed, a defensive loophole can be formed, which can be expanded to become a winning opportunity. However, what are the key points of defense chosen by Cao Ren now?

Trench, earthen wall?

This is not the gate of the county town!

The city gate was destroyed, can the county wall run away?

But even if Liao Hua destroyed the trenches and earth walls of this position, would Liao Hua have to start over again when Cao's army retreated to the next position?

"This is not a way to consume." Liao Hua said, "You can't fight according to what Cao's army presets..."

If you don’t walk on the mountain road in front of you, you will either take a detour or take a waterway.

Danshui is not spacious, and the ships in it are basically small boats. There are not many warships that transport cargo and people.

'We can cut down trees and build rafts!' said the military academy, 'The surroundings are full of trees, so it is not difficult to build rafts! When our soldiers bypassed the mountain and landed behind Cao's army, they would attack them twice, and if they didn't believe it, they wouldn't be able to take the mountain!'

Liao Hua vaguely felt that the suggestion of the military academy seemed to be a bit inappropriate, but he didn't think of what was wrong for a moment, so he said: "Get out the troops first...the military discussion will be held tonight..."
