Be willing to admit defeat.
The Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were happy to win, and Sun Quan was also happy to lose. They both enjoyed themselves so much that they even held a celebration banquet directly outside the city. Sun Quan was also a little stunned by this. You said that you leaders are happy and just celebrate in a small area. Why is it so grand? The war is not over yet. Is there anyone who can manage the army like this? Aren't you afraid that the other side will suddenly attack and catch you off guard?
Also, the Yellow Turban Army was already short of food. How could they maintain the food they finally obtained with such a huge consumption without saving it for planned use? Sun Quan believed that if there was one person in the Yellow Turban Army who could manage money and food, their lives would definitely be much better than they are now. High consumption and high frequency of going out to fight will only make life more and more difficult. This is a vicious cycle.
Of course, even though this is true, Sun Quan also understands that this is the way for the current Qingzhou Yellow Turbans to survive. The leader eats and lives together with the soldiers below him. You cannot celebrate without bringing the people below you with him. In addition, we have obtained food today and the goal has been achieved. If you don't retreat and continue to fight, and if you don't provide some food to appease everyone, there will definitely be complaints from below. This kind of motley army is not easy to lead.
After three rounds of drinking, Guan Hai finally got to the point.
"Sun Tzu's art of war is famous all over the world. Tomorrow, Master Sun, why don't you give some guidance to my group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals?"
Sun Quan smiled and said,
"I wonder what General Guan wants to give you?"
"I leave the man to you, Mr. Sun can do whatever he wants." Guan Hai was also a little polite, but he knew that it was impossible for his soldiers to execute complex military tactics, and they only had one day, so Guan Hai What I really want to learn are some routine or detailed things. It is best to change the Qingzhou Yellow Turban into a real soldier bit by bit.
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."
······
the next day,
Sun Quan felt refreshed early in the morning, not only because he had temporarily gained control of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, but also because of an unexpected surprise, that is, the system in his spiritual world had temporarily changed - Taishi Ci joined the battle. !
Sun Quan didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that he arrived at the same place on the same day. It seemed that Kong Rong was anxious. The more anxious Kong Rong is, the faster he will act. As expected, within today, Taishi Ci will break out on behalf of Beihai and go to Pingyuan County to find Liu Bei for help. Of course, this presupposes that Tai Shici is already in Beihai City. If Tai Shici heard that Beihai was under siege and took the initiative to come to help, then he should have wanted to sneak into the city today.
No matter what, Sun Quan must make targeted arrangements.
Arriving outside the encirclement, Sun Quan asked people to gather nearby soldiers together. Seeing a group of people standing lazily, Sun Quan frowned, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he followed his inner thoughts and started to arrange the soldiers in front of him.
Not surprisingly, the soldiers below were still lazy and noisy. Perhaps because Guan Hai and other leaders were nearby, this group of people more or less obeyed Sun Quan's arrangements, but it was obvious that none of them took Sun Quan's words to heart. In this regard, Guan Hai and others said nothing, as if they were deliberately watching Sun Quan's jokes. This was not something Guan Hai had arranged in advance to give Sun Quan a show of strength or something, but this was the way the Yellow Turban Army was. Unless they were the kind who had prestige and could convince the public, others would not be able to command them at all.
Seeing this, Sun Quan smiled, took a deep breath, released his true energy, and spoke loudly,
"I know, you don't know who I am; I know, you don't want to know who I am; I know even more, you are thinking, why am I, a little brat, dictating to you here. I understand, I completely It’s understandable. If it were me, I wouldn’t be convinced either! In fact, I originally wanted to compete with you at the end of the field. If you see the real seal in your hands and slap it, you might be convinced. But then I thought about it, why? Can I fight? It’s just the same thing, I’m only here for one day, why should I ask you to obey me?”
"What does this young master want to do?" a yellow scarf leader muttered.
"Keep reading." Guan Hai stared at Sun Quan seriously.
Just listen to Sun Quan continue to say,
"Today, I have only one purpose here, which is to arrange the most basic military formation for you. You have also fought many battles, and you may have noticed that the regular army on the opposite side often forms a specific formation. If you think this thing If it doesn't work, then don't listen to me. Do whatever you want. If you think it's useful, come with me today and listen to my arrangements for the day. I won't guarantee that you will win the battle if you listen to me, but I dare Guarantee, originally you were going to die a hundred in a battle, but when you come here, only fifty will die! In short, I have one sentence: Don’t come if you are not afraid of death, come to me if you are afraid of death. Don’t come if you want to be a hero. , come to me if you bring your family with you. If you can protect yourself, don't come. If you don't have the confidence to survive, come to me!"
After speaking, no one responded, but Sun Quan knew that many people had actually been shaken. Now, they just needed a leader, but in fact, Sun Quan wanted obedient people. Since they are obedient, it is often not easy. Unless Sun Quan arranges for a sitter in the team in advance. But it doesn't matter. Sun Quan just needs to play a little trick.
"Those who are willing to follow me should stay where they are. Those who are not willing to follow me should be dismissed on the spot." Sun Quan waved his hand.
In an instant, many thorns in the team turned their attention to Guan Hai. Guan Hai glanced at Sun Quan and saw that Sun Quan had no reaction, so he nodded. The thorns were worthy of being a thorn, and immediately three or five cheered. They left in groups, with these people taking the lead. Soon, a large group of people left, until all that should be left were gone, and only about half of the original ones were left.
"This Sun Zhongmou is really good at it. Even for us, it is very difficult for the original group of people to completely obey the orders. It is impossible to train them well in one day. Instead of wasting time and becoming a laughing stock, it is better to Select those who are willing to obey." A yellow scarf leader sighed. Only they know how difficult it is to lead this team. Even if there are only a few thorns in an army, it can affect the entire atmosphere.
Guan Hai frowned. Although Sun Quan's method was clever, in his opinion, it was not perfect.
"Those who left were all one against ten, and those who stayed were all those with low martial arts. Even if such a group of people is obedient and forms a military formation, how effective can it be?"
Guan Hai once thought that Sun Quan just wanted to complete the bet and just fooled them and dismissed them.
But then, Sun Quan's words gave up his idea,
"Kong Rong should be making some moves today. General Guan and others will help me raid the formation on the outside. Be careful that someone tries to break through from the outside and enter the city. Leave the rest to me." Sun Quan said.
"Then please leave it to Mr. Sun."
Sun Quan smiled and said,
"Don't worry, no one will die today."
