Chapter 1348: Psychological Warfare Is the Most Important Thing, a Single Defeat Will Lead to a Thousand Miles of Defeat!
Today’s second update: Chapter 1348! 2/2!
…
The army returned to support, and along the way, the remaining tiger and leopard cavalry were all majestic and high-spirited, with their backs straighter than before!
After all, they were all prepared to be shrouded in horse leather this time. Unexpectedly, not only did they not die, but they also made great achievements that could bring glory to their ancestors. They would have bragging rights for their children in the future!
Zhang Wenyuan rode his horse and came to Xu Kun, who was riding with Yang Yao, and asked curiously: "Commander Xu, are you really not afraid that these more than 80,000 wolf elites will defect in battle again?"
After all, if this elite team had not been led by Xu Kun to kill the opponent's general, looking at the imperial capital, with the same number, there really would be no team that could confront him head-on!
If more than 80,000 elites were to join the 3 million wolf army, they would put unprecedented pressure on the imperial capital defenders at Xifengkou!
By then, Xu Kun will be self-defeating!
Xu Kun smiled and said, "Wen Yuan, what do you think the more than 80,000 defeated soldiers want most in their hearts?"
After Zhang Wenyuan hesitated for a while, he replied: "I want to live!"
"Isn't this the end? How can I know whether they are willing to surrender or not? Who wants to be a prisoner of another clan!"
"Then what are you..." Zhang Wenyuan was confused.
"Have you ever heard of a sentence?" Xu Kun said calmly.
Zhang Wenyuan looked expectant.
"The army is defeated like a mountain. If these 80,000 elites can really be used by me, they can naturally penetrate the three million wolf cavalry. But this is unrealistic. There will always be people who think that they will be safe if they hide in their own military formation! "
"There are more than three million cavalrymen. Even if they face the natural dangers of the Luanhe River, if they are willing, more than three million people can cut off the flow with a whip!"
(PS: If you understand the allusion of throwing a whip to cut off the current, you will know Xu Kun’s current strategy~)
"When fighting a large army like this, morale is often more important than combat power!"
"Tell me, how many enemy troops do you need to kill to win this big battle?"
Zhang Wenyuan heard this, hesitated for a while, and replied: "One third, and we need to kill one or two semi-saint-level generals of the opponent. Only after we have a complete advantage can we weaken the morale of the army!"
Killing generals and capturing flags have always been the most damaging to morale during large army battles. For example, this time Xu Kun led a team to block the Wuhuan elite led by Tadun. Tadun died, and then the Xiaoshi Tianlang formation was disintegrated, leaving the rest Even if there are still ten wolf emperors, they have lost their will to fight!
"Yes, according to common sense, when a large army of millions of people is fighting, it cannot be defeated unless it reduces one-third of its troops. But have you ever thought about how to achieve such a level of defeating the enemy? Count, how many casualties will our army have to pay?”
this……
Zhang Wenyuan really hasn’t thought about it carefully, but thinking about it, it will be no less than half of the other party’s quantity!
In other words, if you want to completely defeat these three million Wuhuan cavalry, the imperial capital will have to pay at least more than half a million casualties!
One general's success is worth tens of thousands. War has always been cruel. Every living life is just a number in this war game!
Only after the war will anyone remember those who died in the war!
Otherwise, it is just a cold number!
In a war, no one can stay out of it. They are all affected by the general situation. Even if you are as powerful as a semi-saint, you may not be able to survive alone!
"Kun God, forgive me for being ignorant, but I still can't understand the profound meaning of your words!"
Zhang Wenyuan said respectfully.
This time, all aspects of his attitude towards Xu Kun could only be described as being in awe!
This young man, who is no older than his nephew, and even several years younger than Zhang Guanqi, is standing at a height that requires him to look up.
Xu Kun did not answer directly. He reined up his horse and drove forward the wolf elites who were like walking corpses. "Hurry up, you guys are grinding, you don't want to live anymore, do you?"
"Zang Ba, Cheng Lian, bring people to watch. If these people dare to slack off again, they will be killed without mercy!"
"As you command!"
The second general led the remaining more than 700 tigers and leopards on horseback. The weapons in their hands were cold and gleaming, which made the Wuhuan soldiers who had their mounts and weapons captured feel frightened. They ran hard one by one, using up all their strength.
At this time, Xu Kun slowed down and waited until Zhang Wenyuan caught up before giving his answer.
"As a general, fighting with your heart is the top priority, and fighting with soldiers is the bottom priority!"
After all, it is left to Zhang Wenyuan to experience it himself.
"The battle of the heart is the highest priority...the battle of the soldiers is the lowest priority..." Zhang Wenyuan murmured as he looked at Xu Kun's retreating back.
After a full day and night's journey, Xu Kun led the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, driving more than 80,000 Wuhuan elites in front like sheep, and behind him were various mounts that followed the 100,000 Wuhuan elites in battle!
Compared to the lively wolf tribe, these small beast tribes are simpler in mind and have no thoughts of struggle. Basically, whoever wins will listen to whoever says it!
With more than 800 people, crowding in front and behind, stretching for hundreds of miles, it is really a grand scene rarely seen in the world.
Zhang Wenyuan rode his horse back from the front inspection. After approaching Xu Kun, he pointed to a raised boulder between the hills in front and said: "Commander Xu, the boulder mountain in front is called Huangshili. After passing it, we will reach Kuchole Mountain and Xifeng Mountain." Talk about it, the armies of both sides are fighting bloody battles there!"
Through the sound of the wind, Xu Kun could already hear the sporadic shouts of killing, and he immediately spread his phoenix wings and rose high into the sky.
Looking from afar, the scene moved him!
The battlefield was like a meat grinder. The top experts on both sides did not end up. Instead, they commanded the various troops to attack. The swords saw the flesh, and the horses neighed and the people roared. It was terrifying!
Even the water of the Luan River was dyed blood red!
Xu Kun fell down and was about to give orders when he frowned and looked up.
The sky was as usual, except for an indigo eagle that seemed to fly by chance.
"Is it an illusion?" Xu Kun shook his head.
Then without any further hesitation, he came to the sky above the 80,000 descending soldiers.
"Your tribe is now fighting in front with the defenders of our imperial capital. I don't know what you think of this war. There has always been a blood feud between the two tribes, and there is no distinction between good and evil. However, this time, It was you, Wuhuan, who invaded our Chinese territory and harmed the rights and interests of our clan. I don’t think anyone wants to see their homeland destroyed!”
"Since you have surrendered, I will give you a way to survive. Whether you can survive or not depends entirely on your own destiny!"
"Wenyuan, distribute their weapons, armor and mounts!"
"yes!"
Eighty thousand surrendered soldiers were armed again.
Xu Kun pointed his long sword in the direction of Huang Shili and said: "Climb over the boulder and enter the battlefield. What I need you to do is not to kill your people, but to shout that Tadun is dead, the hinterland has been lost, Wu Huan is defeated, just surrender these sixteen words!"
"Can it be done?"
After yesterday's lesson, the Wuhuan elite present did not dare to hesitate and said in unison: "Yes!"
"Okay, then my comrades and I will act as commanders at the rear. You just need to charge forward without hesitation. Don't think that your tribe will give you a wide berth. On the contrary, we can only pass through your Wuhuan military formation and reach the destination. I have already made an agreement with the top management of the human race on my human race’s territory, and those who defect before the battle will not be held accountable!”
"Go and fight for your chance of survival!"
"In the eyes of today's Wuhuan cavalry, you are already dead, so don't have any illusions!"
"As for those who dare to quit..."
"Bailici!"
"exist!"
Baili Ci clearly cooperated with Xu Kun's pre-war mobilization. He drew his bow and arrow, and shot an arrow, piercing a hill.
Immediately, under the frightened eyes of the Wuhuan elite, Xu Kun once again showed a devilish smile: "I'm sorry, I've been practicing archery recently. Whether I can become a master of archery this time depends on how many people retreat. !”
The words of the Great Demon King Xu Kun were definitely not child's play, and the 80,000 descended soldiers present also tightened their butts.
Xu Kun looked at the remaining seven wolf emperors and said, "My eyes will be focused on the seven of you, so don't let me down!"
The seven wolf emperors immediately stood up straight to show their loyalty and said: "We will definitely fulfill our mission!"
"Okay, let's go!"
Subsequently, the seven wolf emperors led 80,000 Wuhuan elites, Wuyang Wuyang, over Huang Shili, and threw themselves into the battlefield.
Xu Kun led Yang Yao and others to the top of Huangshili to overlook the battle situation.
Zhang Wenyuan and other eight generals led the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to guard the pass below and cut off all retreat routes.
The shouts of killing from more than 80,000 elites were loud, and for a moment, the commander-in-chief of the Wuhuan army was alerted.
Several Half-Saints turned to look, and when they saw it was their own army, they were relieved despite their doubts.
"Who is leading the army ahead, and why are you here? Come forward quickly!" A half-saint strong man spoke.
But more than 80,000 people didn't care about him.
Seeing this, General Wuhuan felt uneasy and immediately scolded: "Stop immediately, otherwise it will be regarded as rebellion!"
But how could the 80,000 people who were determined to listen to them listen to them!
Compared with the majesty of these semi-saints in his family, Xu Kun is even more terrifying!
If you move forward, there is a glimmer of hope; if you retreat, it is a dead end!
When they saw the 80,000 elites rushing faster and faster, several wolf half-saints could not sit still.
"Anyone who dares to get close again will be killed without mercy!"
At this moment, the approaching situation of 80,000 elites has been noticed by the Wuhuan army's rear army, and there is a commotion in the originally rock-solid rear army!
But the riot doesn't stop there!
Eighty thousand people shouted in unison: "Tadun is dead, the hinterland is lost, Wuhuan is defeated, surrender quickly!"
Blanch!
All the Wuhuan generals were scolding their mothers, where could their own family come from to shake their military morale!
Immediately, someone started to take action against these 80,000 elites!
The power of the Semi-Saint can be seen here. It took away the lives of hundreds of elites in an instant, and even the battle king level could not survive!
For a time, some elites couldn't help but stop, fearing the threat of death, and even worse, they couldn't help but retreat.
Whoosh~
An arrow was fired from behind, and the Wuhuan elite who was at the end and wanted to retreat was shot off his horse!
"Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed without mercy!"
The threat from the rear suddenly caught these 80,000 elites in the middle!
The seven wolf emperors knew best what to do at this moment. They took the lead and summoned the emperor-level Dharma to continue sprinting forward.
And continued to shout Xu Kun's sixteen-character mantra!
With these imperial realm leaders, the remaining elites will naturally charge together!
After a while, although General Wuhuan was killing people, he still couldn't stop the impact of these 80,000 elites!
The 80,000 elite front army and the 3 million Wuhuan army's rear army collided together!
Use your back to catch the opponent's spear. In this case, the rear army's shouts of killing are loud, and the 80,000 elite troops rush forward to break through a line of defense!
It's like you can withstand people poking your eyes, but you can't withstand others poking your skin!
When the 80,000 elites completely broke into the rear army, the Wuhuan commander who wanted to attack them was also dumbfounded!
If he attacked again at this time, he would really not distinguish between friend and foe!
Just let these people shout and rush forward, and the entire army formation was rushed to pieces!
How wide can the three million troops be spread out? It can be said to be endless!
But you three million people can't squeeze together!
In terms of density and uniformity, these three million people are just a mob compared to these 80,000 elites!
The formation was easily penetrated!
The sound waves were higher and higher. These 80,000 elites really didn't have the heart to attack their own people. They just wanted to survive and break a path!
But this effect is absolutely devastating!
Because the information mixed in the sixteen words not only made those ordinary soldiers feel desperate, but even the Wuhuan half-saints sitting in the rear heard it, and their eyes went black.
"Tadun is dead?"
Some people doubted, some people didn't believe it!
But when someone pointed out that one of the emperors who had rushed halfway was the one who followed Tadun to carry out the surprise attack mission, everyone had to accept this fact no matter how much they didn't believe it!
My Wuhuan hinterland... is lost?
We have lost our home, why are we still fighting for our lives in the front?
Even a semi-saint as strong as Tadun died, how can we survive?
For a while, as Xu Kun's sixteen words spread, the morale of the three million Wuhuan army was constantly hit!
When the main generals fell into doubt about their lives and did not issue military orders in time, the front line collapsed again and again!
"Haha, good boy, God really blesses my China and gives such a great gift!"
Zhao Wuling flew up, and after seeing the overall situation, he was overjoyed.
"Everyone, don't wait, let's go together and win the battle in one go!"
The Wuhuan commanders, who had not yet recovered, saw that many powerful human beings headed by Zhao Wuling had crossed the army and killed them.
Moreover, these old guys did not follow the ethics of martial arts. They advanced all the way, spreading Xu Kun's words like the 80,000 elites!
And added a sentence "Those who surrender will not be killed"!
The army was demoralized and defeated like a mountain!
The Wuhuan commander who wanted to make some redemption moves was restrained by the powerful men of the imperial capital!
When the first batch of frontline soldiers threw away their weapons and knelt down to surrender, just like dominoes, the Wuhuan army was defeated!
The imperial capital defenders immediately started the surrender work!
"You Wuhuan strongmen, if you want to sacrifice your life for your clan, we will help you!"
"If not, surrender quickly, and I, China, will treat you well!"
The situation has been tilted towards the imperial capital in all aspects.
Behind the Wuhuan army, Zhang Wenyuan and others saw the Wuhuan army being defeated. They were stunned for a moment, then raised their weapons and shouted, "Kun God, Kun is invincible!"
Use non-combat power to attack their hearts, relieve their anger, and disintegrate their fighting spirit!
Do it, defeat the enemy without fighting!
At this moment, Zhang Wenyuan understood what "heart war is the best" means!
Xu Kun, who accepted the shouts and admiring eyes, smiled at this moment. When he was about to lead everyone to share a piece of the pie, he frowned and looked at the sky again.
It's the indigo eagle again!
"Yaoyao, the battle is coming to an end. You should go and join the imperial capital garrison according to the situation. There seems to be some emergency on my side!"
(PS: This battle is based on the famous battle "Battle of Feishui" in history!)
