Li Mengxi and his younger brother were wandering around the war camp. The development of things tonight was basically in line with Li Mengxi's expectations. The veterans and the newly joined soldiers from the Yellow Turban Qushuai Wang Lu Department were chatting and laughing around the campfire. After tonight, probably between the old and new soldiers

In the meantime, the relationship will become much closer.

Li Mengxi saw where the excitement was, so he took his younger brother over to join in. They chatted for a while, and then let others chat first while he took his younger brother to another place.

Li Mengxi was very popular in the army, and the soldiers' goodwill towards Li Mengxi was fully expressed in Brick.

When the soldiers saw Brick, one pulled him over and pinched his cheek, another touched his head. If there was something delicious in his hand, he also gave it to Brick. Brick was very popular.

The original soldiers of the rebel army plus the nearly thousand Yellow Turban soldiers recruited this time, Guan Yu's tribe has three troops: infantry, crossbows, and cavalry, with 500 infantry, 300 crossbows, and more than 20 cavalry. Guan Yu is under the jurisdiction of

After being supplemented by surrendered troops, the number of troops exceeded 800, accounting for nearly half of the total strength of the rebel army.

The Xiangyong of Liu Bei's Yijun and the Yellow Turban Soldiers were roughly of the same type. They were both working people and had many things in common. They chatted with each other more warmly than Li Mengxi imagined, but there were exceptions.

Li Mengxi met a group of people, gathered around a bonfire, not talking much, and completely inconsistent with the lively atmosphere everywhere else.

Li Mengxi thought that there was some conflict between the old soldiers and the surrendered soldiers in this group, but when he got closer, he saw Gouzi.

"Gouzi, why don't you stop talking?" Li Mengxi came over.

Seeing Li Mengxi, Gouzi stood up hurriedly, "The chat... is over." Gouzi stammered.

Li Mengxi immediately became happy.

He is really a talent if he can finish chatting all day long.

Li Mengxi then joined the group of Gouzi who could no longer remain silent, and the atmosphere became lively again.

At some point, his brother yawned again and again. Li Mengxi said goodbye to everyone and took his brother back to sleep.

There are some novelties about Liu Bei's Yijun compared to the Yellow Turbans. For example, if you look around, you can see torches lined up one after another.

A new recruit asked this question.

"That's the formation set up by our military advisor." The corps commander turned his head and glanced at the torches lined up like a wall in the night, "It's pitch black at night. If there's no light, the thieves won't know if they touch it."

"See, there's a fire there. As long as you see the fire is there, you'll be fine. Sleep peacefully."

When the recruits took a look, they saw that the four-way fire wall was really not missing a corner.

"What should we do if the fire is out?" the recruit asked.

"Someone is watching to change it, but it can't be destroyed."

"What should we do if it rains?" Chatterbox recruit asked again.

"It won't get wet even if it rains." The team leader explained impatiently, "It's covered with a cover."

"What if the wind blows it out?"

The corps commander was annoyed and glanced at the recruits, "Pine wood torches can never be extinguished by the wind!" The corps commander returned angrily.

"Our military advisor is very capable. You can think of things that others can't think of. But... if you really have an idea, you have to say that if it is useful, you might be rewarded."

The chatty recruit pestered the corps commander again and asked him how he could be rewarded for having ideas.

The corps commander patiently explained the rules of the rebel army. He said that when training in the military camp, he should think about the formations by himself. If he had any suggestions, he would give them to the centurion. The centurion would then give them to the general. It is really useful and capable.

There are rewards.

For example, if you figure out a better way to tie your backpack, you can also get rewards.

This provision of the rebel army is so novel that it is almost unheard of.

If you can figure out how to use a rope to tie the backpack more securely, you can get a reward? Is it that simple, just tie a rope and get a pound of meat?

And in the corps commander's answer, that's it.

The chatty recruit was thinking a lot and decided to be more discerning in the future and think about where he could get rewards.

A new recruit who talks a lot will inevitably bring the topic to the military advisor.

"Military advisor...it's that half-grown boy standing next to the general."

The captain answered casually.

The recruit was stunned. He suspected that he had heard wrongly.

"Just that tall, that little kid?" The recruit gestured rudely with his hand as wide as a pillow, implying that the kid who was just that tall turned out to be a military advisor.

The corps commander glared at the recruit, "What's going on?"

"Not at all..." Hua Lao saw that the corps commander was impatient and stopped asking.

The military advisor of the rebel army is a child, which is really strange.

Li Mengxi sent his younger brother back to sleep. He put his younger brother to sleep and tucked him in. He didn't sleep himself. He was sitting by the car, carving bamboo slips with the help of a torch on the handlebar.

Today, the gains are still considerable, and there are many things worthy of note.

Looking back on the day, the most important thing he experienced during the day was naturally the battle to attack the mountain. This was the second battle that Li Mengxi had personally experienced. Looking back at the whole battle, Li Mengxi frowned slightly.

Li Mengxi thought that before the actual war started, Guan Yu took him to the foot of the mountain to observe the terrain. When he went to the back and wanted the civilian camp to bluff, the civilian camp was not familiar with the formations and could not coordinate the changes between the formations, so he could only follow the narrowest part of the mountain road.

Queues to be accommodated side by side, to select how many queues are in the same row.

At this time, he had forgotten how wide the mountain road was. Only when Guan Yu reminded him did he realize how wide the mountain road was.

Thinking of this, Li Mengxi took up writing.

"When facing a battle, you should observe the terrain and military conditions.

View the topography of the mountains, the height of the mountains, the undulations of the terrain, and the width and width of the mountain roads. Only in this way can the formation of troops be in accordance with the geographical advantages."

This is the first point. Observing the terrain is not just about taking a casual look. You have to look at the heights of the mountains, how dangerous the mountain roads are, how wide or narrow they are, how many troops can be accommodated, etc.

Then he thought that because the troops were not enough, he thought of using bluff to attack the heart, so Li Mengxi continued to write.

"The tactics of overlapping waves and attacking the mind means that even if we have millions of troops, it is difficult to invest them all at the same time in a battle to attack a city or a stronghold. At this time, we might as well use a coordinating method and deploy them one by one.

Twenty thousand troops attacked the city first. After several days of siege, the defenders fought hard and the siege force was depleted day by day. They were happy to see the light of day.

At this time, another 40,000 people were sent to the city.

For several more days, the defenders fought hard for several more days, and then sent 80,000 troops to the city.

Compared with pulling all the troops to the bottom of the city, this method of throwing troops in one wave is better than the method of throwing troops in one wave. It is like a rope tied around the neck. Tightening it step by step can have the effect of attacking the heart."

"Also, if you want to persuade someone to surrender, when is the best time?

It may or may not be appropriate to persuade someone to surrender before the battle begins.

During the battle, it would be inappropriate for me to persuade you to surrender when I am in decline. If I persuade you to surrender when I am in decline, the enemy will know that I have the strength to capture you. If you are smart, they will take advantage of the situation and overwhelm you.

If the enemy is defeated and our army is strong, and the enemy's main army is turbulent and panic-stricken, it will be more successful to persuade them to surrender at this time.

If the enemy is defeated and the morale of the army is turbulent, and our fresh troops arrive at this time, the enemy's morale will be even lower, and the chances of persuading them to surrender will be greater.

For example, when attacking the mountain today, the two generals Guan and Zhang just pulled up the Yellow Turbans halfway up the mountain to separate the stronghold. The Yellow Turbans fled into the pass in panic. At this time, thousands of people lined up at the foot of the mountain, and the sound of "those who surrender will avoid death" sounded like a landslide.

The enemy had just suffered a defeat and their morale was falling. Our army arrived again. The two attacks added up. The enemy's army lost all fighting spirit. The enemy general asked to surrender.

If there is no strategy to attack the heart, even if the stronghold is broken halfway up the mountain, it is still difficult to attack the pass. If the pass is attacked, hundreds of people may die before the pass can be broken.
