Chapter 14 The Prelude to the War

Chapter 14 The Prelude to the War

"Report, I report to the lord, the news of the spying ahead is of course. The two tribes have already sent troops. At this time, they are in the same place. There are about two hundred people, and they are heading to our territory." As the voice fell, Zhong Yu Hearing a soldier running in in a panic, his face was full of tension.

Hearing the soldier's words, Zhong Yu didn't pay attention to the soldier's face, but with a smile on his face, he shouted loudly, "It's good, after waiting for them for several days, I thought they would not dare to send troops!"

"Send the order and tell Wang Daniu to immediately gather all the troops and prepare to set off. The war is coming, and we will win this battle. After that, we will become the overlords within 20 miles around us. After this step, we will welcome It's been a peaceful time that lasted for several months. And there will be no one around who can resist us." Zhong Yu told the surrounding guards with a serious look, and went to report to Wang Daniu, so that he could carry out the order he had just given.

After some mobilization, Zhong Yu walked out of the city with a group of neatly equipped and excited troops, and faced the allied barbarian army that had just set off towards the territory.

The two armies met in a wide plain, and neither side was surprised. It seemed that they had expected such a day.

A flat and endless plain. Usually few people come to this place, because the prey here is scarce and the land is relatively barren. The only feature is that this place is very flat and the grass is low, and there is nothing to cover it.

However, in this place today, birds and insects are extinct, and animals are fleeing. Usually, there is no place where no one comes. Hundreds of people gather. The two sides are divided into two camps, standing opposite each other, looking at each other.

Deathly silence, no one spoke for two minutes, silent, quietly lined up in two squares, looking at each other, just like looking at their own mortal enemy, this is not to blame them, after all, the two sides will soon A life-and-death struggle.

Afterwards, under the shouts of the leaders of both sides, the respective soldiers lined up neatly and divided into two camps, standing opposite each other.

Zhong Yu, dressed in a black samurai uniform, walked to the front accompanied by Wang Daniu. Looking at the opposite side, I saw that the group of savages had some expressions of fear, some full of anger, some full of anticipation, and some full of overwhelmed, all kinds of expressions.

All the flavors of all beings have been manifested at this moment.

With advanced weapons, the morale of the soldiers on Zhong Yu's side was obviously much higher than that of the barbarian coalition on the opposite side. After all, the barbarians on the opposite side have just experienced a turmoil. Many of the original high-level executives have been killed, and people are in a state of panic. Now they are pulling out to fight. How high can you expect the morale of the people on the opposite side?

At this moment, being able to reluctantly not mutiny is already the barbarism engraved in the blood and bones of the barbarians, the desire for war, and barely maintaining them, the most basic morale, will not collapse at a touch.

On Zhong Yu's side, it is different. The composition of his army is extremely complex. There are the Yellow Turbans who were summoned at the beginning. They are very loyal to Zhong Yu because Zhong Yu has given them very good treatment, including food, lodging and clothing. Now, they are very considerate to marry a daughter-in-law for them. Although most of them are second-hand, for them, this is something they never dared to think about before. Therefore, they served Zhong Yu to death.

Some of the captives of the barbarians who were later captured were released from slavery and formed a servant army. These people were exempted from slavery by Zhong Yute because of their sufficient credit, and their families were also cut from slavery. Therefore, in order to keep From a difficult life, it will not become a slave again, and it will also be used to death.

The reason is that there is a custom among the barbarian tribes that the defeated will become the slave of the victor, and sometimes, the living sacrifice of the tribe.

With this custom, how could it be impossible for those freed slaves to surrender and flee? How could it be possible for them to give up their newly acquired freedom and become a precarious slave! No one would think that way.

There are also slave legions who were captured before but did not make enough credit, and are still slaves for the time being. Although they are said to have the lowest morale and the least loyalty. Although they are said to be the army with the least loyalty and the least morale, their families are all in their own hands. As long as they are okay, the safety of their family members will be absolutely monitored by themselves.

So as long as they're alive they'll be fine, but if they're defeated and their families fall into the hands of savages, who knows what will happen!

Those ignorant savages have some rough and bloody thoughts in their minds, saving others by themselves, how dare those slaves entrust their safety to those savages!

Although the morale of the army composed of these three parts is not absolutely high, it is also much higher than the morale of the general army. The will to fight is not comparable to ordinary troops, which is also the reason why Zhong Yu, with only 129 people in this area, only 2/3 of the enemy's army, dares to fight it.

Soldiers are more valuable than elites, and strength is more valuable than feet. People's hearts are not aligned, how many people are there? It's useless, how much energy can be put on the target? At the end of the day, he was still in a mess, confusing his originally neat self.

The barbarian coalition on the opposite side was frightened by the neat military appearance on his side. The ban on Ning Ning caused a commotion in the opponent's camp, and after the call of the opponent's leader, it was reluctantly calmed down.

There is an idiom in ancient China, called good order and leisure, which refers to the army of Jin State. When fighting, they are all lined up neatly, waiting for the arrival of the other side. When fighting, they obey orders and advance and retreat like one person. Therefore, the army of the enemy country, seeing the neat appearance of the army of the Jin country, has not yet started to fight, and half of their anger has been relieved. And the state of Jin also started the great cause of sweeping the countries and dominating the world.

From this we can see how important a neat military appearance and forbidden military discipline are to an army. At this time, the situation between Zhong Yu and the barbarians on the opposite side is very similar to the situation of Jin and enemy countries.

"You two-legged beasts who don't know how to be shameless, don't obey Wang Hua, don't practice etiquette, and drink blood. Now you dare to invade my territory. Today, if you get out of here alive, how can I become this territory? The lord?" Zhong Yu quickly finished these words with a face full of anger.

Then, without waiting for the answer from the opposing coalition army, he turned around and said to the soldiers on his side: "Generals, for your own lives, for your own family, for you, and finally have a stable home, Even, so that you can eat a full meal, I ordered to kill all the barbarians on the opposite side. Those who have obtained their leader's head will be given a stone of food. Kill!"

Note: Zhong Yu has automatically acquired Barbarian Proficiency since Zhong Yu has 100 barbarian subjects. This will be the case in the future.
