The opening chapter of "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu states: "Soldiers are a major event for the country, the place of life and death, and the way of survival and destruction. We must observe them. Therefore, the classics are based on five things, calibrated with plans, and its emotions: one is the way, and the other is the way.
It is called heaven, the third is called earth, the fourth is called general, and the fifth is called Dharma. General refers to wisdom, faith, benevolence, courage, and strictness. All generals must hear these five. Those who know them will win, and those who do not know will not win."
"Wisdom, faith, benevolence, courage, and strictness" are later known as the "Five Virtues of a General".
Among the five virtues of a general, the only thing missing is the word "righteousness"! Because "righteousness" is something that ruins the army!
Liancheng sometimes even thought that he was the most suitable to be a general! Not because he didn't follow "righteousness", but because he had "all five virtues"!
Ancient people have commented on the Five Virtues: A wise man has foresight without confusion, can make plans, and can adapt to changes; a believer has the ability to give orders; a benevolent man has compassion and can win people's hearts; a brave man has followed righteousness without fear, and can be resolute.
; Strict means solemnizing the hearts of the people with authority. The five are mutually dependent and indispensable! And I exactly meet these conditions!
Of course, he has also read another ancient sage's annotation on the five virtues: dedicated wisdom will lead to thieves, universal benevolence will lead to cowardice, adhering to trust will lead to foolishness, relying on courage and force will lead to violence, and being too strict will lead to disability. All five are combined, and each is suitable.
Use it to become a general!
That is to say, everything should be done in moderation and just right! The general should not be too wise. If the "wisdom" is too much, it will be a little "thief", a little "clever", and "sneaky", and the pattern will appear too small!
Regarding benevolence, it is said that "kindness does not govern soldiers". If you talk about kindness to all soldiers, you will appear too cowardly and lose your prestige! You must be lenient and strict, and use both soft and hard tactics!
Being too honest and trustworthy will make you look stupid and pedantic! Since ancient times, soldiers have never been tired of deception, not only to the enemy, but also to one's own people. After all, there are some "military secrets" that cannot be disclosed casually! Cao Cao did this to the extreme! Wang Yi, who was in charge of military supplies, reported it to Cao Cao
He said: "Now there are more soldiers and less food. What should we do?" Cao Cao replied: "Distribute small dendrobium trees to temporarily relieve the immediate emergency. The food and grass will arrive in ten days." Wang Jie asked again: "If the soldiers get angry.
What should we do?" Cao Cao said, "You don't have to worry about it, I have my own solution."
In accordance with Cao Cao's order, Wang Jie distributed military rations with small dendrobium trees. Cao Cao secretly sent people to each camp to listen to the news. There were complaints from each camp, saying that the prime minister had deceived everyone. Cao Cao secretly summoned Wang Jie to the account and said to him: "I want to tell you
Let me borrow something to appease the public's anger." The king said, "What does the prime minister want to borrow?" Cao said, "I want to lend you a head." Wang Jie was shocked...
The ambush swordsmen and axemen rushed out, chopped off Wang Jie's head and hung it on a high pole. They posted a notice saying: "Wang Jie used small dendrobium trees to distribute food and rice privately and stole official grain. In accordance with military law, he beheaded to show the public." Then the public complained.
Relieve. (Note 1)
Relying too much on force seems cruel!
Military orders that are too strict become cruel!
The five virtues must not only be "all available", but also "each suitable for its own use" before he can be a general. Liancheng thinks this is about him!
But if the Skeleton Commander and the Corpse General knew what he was thinking now, they would definitely complain: You can become a general just because of "unrighteousness"! As for the five virtues, all five are lacking!
Now Liancheng wants to use blood-eating demon ants to deal with the Luoyang tiger. He feels that this is a conspiracy! This is wisdom!
Don’t you have skeleton soldiers? Don’t you have an army of living zombies? Then let you take a look at my army of magic ants!
He failed to kill the Eagle Sword Soldiers of Sky Eagle Fort in the Battle of Rock Beach. He believed that the main reason was that the number of magic ants was not enough! Otherwise, he could definitely kill the Eagle Sword Soldiers of Sky Eagle Fort, and then use the power of everyone to kill Feng Jiuxiao!
This time I will let you experience the power of blood-sucking demon ants!
The White Bones Commander heard Liancheng mention the blood-sucking demon ants and knew that they must be powerful. However, since they are "blood-sucking" demon ants, his bones are bloodless and fleshless and naturally he is not afraid of sucking blood. The zombie general is not worried about the demon ants accidentally injuring his living corpse.
.Because his living corpse has no flesh and blood, almost skin and bones, I believe that the demon ants will not be too interested in "them"!
The northwest wolf regiment's position suddenly fired several stone bullets towards the Luoyang Tiger's position!
Although the Northwest Wolf's trebuchet is not as ferocious as the Luoyang Tiger's, it is still a long-range attack weapon after all! Ever since seeing the power of the Luoyang Tiger's trebuchet and ballistae, Liancheng sent people to imitate many trebuchets and ballistae.
He originally did not want to expose these secret weapons before the northwest wolf army moved, but the current situation did not allow him to have any illusions. He originally thought that the skeleton soldiers, crow soldiers, and living corpse army could consume at least two-thirds of the Luoyang Tiger's strength.
It is no problem to use 200,000 northwest wolves to deal with 100,000 Luoyang tigers. But now the Luoyang tigers have lost less than 70,000 troops and still have more than 200,000 troops. Although the opponent is at the end of its war effort, it still has 3,000 heroes and 300 eagle swordsmen.
, five hundred disciples of the Heavenly Sword, dozens of sect leaders, and more than a dozen peak masters of the Nine Realms were supporting them. The outcome of this battle was really unpredictable. Even though I was lucky enough to win, the Northwest Wolf was defeated and there was not much left.
What’s the point? How can I conquer the Central Plains with a defeated army? What I need is 200,000 northwest wolves to capture Jingyang without dying a single soldier! In the worst case, only 20,000 people can be sacrificed! No more can be done
accept!
The stone bullet exploded instantly when it hit the ground, sending blood ants flying!
A bloody mist began to fill the Luoyang Tiger Formation! Then it quickly fell to the ground and rushed towards the formation like a red tide!
At the same time, a dozen archers holding long bows suddenly appeared in front of the northwest wolf army! They were all wearing light armor and going into battle shirtless. It seemed that they were doing it to better use the flexibility of their arms to draw bows and shoot arrows!
These twelve people are the archery masters sent to Liancheng by the Chang family in central Jinxi and the Li family in northern Shaanxi. Each family has six people, and they are all young leaders in the clan!
The red blood flowed rapidly in all directions in the Luoyang Tiger Formation, and the Luoyang Tigers could only be heard screaming one after another as they attacked!
ah!
ah
what!
They suddenly noticed that there were big blood-red ants as thick as a thumb swimming up and down on each other's faces, and suddenly they penetrated into the skin! They broke through the skin and penetrated into the flesh! Then the Luoyang tiger let out a shrill scream! That
Not everyone can bear this kind of heartbreaking pain! If a knife is stabbed in the body, it will be over after a while, but the ants are burrowing into the flesh and keep turning over, biting, and bleeding, and the pain is heartbreaking!
It makes people crazy! It makes people crazy! Some Luoyang tigers began to discard their long knives and tear their armor, tear their clothes, and scratch their skin. They were suddenly covered with blood. Who knows that the smell of blood stimulated the ferocity of the blood ants and attacked these naked animals even more crazily.
The Luoyang tigers, whose upper bodies were covered in blood, swarmed in. The Luoyang tigers were instantly overwhelmed by countless blood ants. When the blood ants retreated from the Luoyang tigers, everyone turned pale with horror! A white skeleton appeared in front of them instantly! The key is
Yes, the bones are still corroding and melting!
In an instant, the blood ants gnawed away all the bones of a large living person!
Some Luoyang tigers wanted to use fire to prepare for a fire attack. The Eagle Blade Soldiers had a battle with the blood ants, and they shouted loudly: "Don't attack with fire! They are not afraid of fire!" In the chaos, some people heard it, some did not hear it, and some people did not.
The torch is still lit!
But his death was even worse! These corpse-eating ants are adapted to life in underground magma. Not only are they not afraid of heat, they even enjoy it more!
Everyone finally knows that blood ants are not afraid of fire attacks!
Taoist Priest Baihe and others were protected by nine realms of glazed bodies, so they were naturally not afraid, but pitied the Luoyang Tiger like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, and the screams kept coming one after another!
Feng Jiuxiao reversed the Xuanwu magic, and the flow of infuriating energy in his body suddenly began to slow down, and the surrounding air temperature began to drop sharply. The original thunder pool instantly emitted a cold blue light, like a ghost fire, Feng Jiuxiao said in his heart: Let you see the "Xuanwu"
"Ice Thunder Pond"!
The term "leichi" was first seen in the "Book of Bao Wenqiao" written by Yu Liang of the Eastern Jin Dynasty: "I am worried about the western frontier because it is too far away from Liyang, and I can't even take a step past the leichi." Now it's not far from Huizhou!
But in Taoist language, Lei Chi is the sea of thunder power!
Feng Jiuxiao is surrounded by electric snakes, circling and intertwining into a pool!
The cold blue flames circulate endlessly, making those who touch it freeze up!
Black Ice Thunder Pond!
Those who touch it are as stiff as ice!
