Many generals present knew this clearly. Of course they knew the value of this victory.
If the scout just said what he said at the beginning, and it took more than 20,000 soldiers to finally kill more than 2,000 barbarians, then there would be no good news.
This is a routine operation. The soldiers sent out are not very strong to begin with. Most of them are first- and second-grade martial arts cultivators. It is almost foreseeable that such martial cultivators will be brutally tortured by the barbarians when they are sent out.
So at the beginning, this news could not be regarded as good news, it could only be regarded as a normal casualty, but there was no point in reporting it to His Majesty.
But the amazing thing is that a first column suddenly appeared, and the key is that this first column worked wonders. No one was lost, and 800 barbarians were killed.
This is a surprise.
So much so that many soldiers felt frightened just now.
At this time, many generals suppressed their emotions and waited for the Luoshen Marquis to finish writing the letter announcing the good news to His Majesty. Then many generals began to continue talking.
Without him, they mainly discussed how Lu Jiu did it.
"This boy is able to use the yellow sand to hide his body, which is enough to prove that this boy is quick in mind, has thought of such methods a long time ago, and is familiar with the geographical terrain, and formulates corresponding tactics according to the corresponding geographical terrain." At this time, Wei Wei General Yuan spoke like this.
In this battle, all the powerful ministers went to the battlefield. Except for Luo Shenhou, the three generals Weiyuan, Northern Expedition, and Huguo also went to the battlefield and came here to assist Luo Shenhou in commanding the three armies.
The general protecting the country also spoke in admiration at this time: "And forming a regiment with twenty people in a group, this kind of operation method simply brings the team battle to the extreme. When a first- or second-grade martial artist faces a barbarian, it is almost impossible." There is no chance of winning, it is basically a matter of being killed directly by the barbarians, but with twenty first- and second-level martial arts cultivators facing one barbarian, the chance of being killed will be greatly increased."
"Yes, the regiment's tactics have indeed produced miraculous effects, but the most exquisite one is this tactic." The Northern Expedition general couldn't remember what the scout had just said. General Lu Jiu also gave this tactic a name. He turned back to look at the scout and asked, "The name of that tactic is..."
"Guerrilla tactics." The scout quickly replied: "General Lu Jiupian calls these tactics guerrilla tactics."
"That's right, guerrilla tactics!!" The Northern Expedition general suddenly slapped his thigh: "This is simply a genius idea. Think about it, guerrilla tactics."
The Northern Expedition general couldn't hide the excitement in his heart at this time, and started to analyze: "In this way, aren't we all connected in series? Just imagine, what did Lu Jiu do before??"
"He asked these recruits to run, yes, it is what every one of us can do. This is a very simple, very simple training method, but why they have to run, we didn't know what his purpose was before, but Combined with his victory this time, you will understand that running is for guerrilla tactics. Compared with barbarians, humans have natural disadvantages. For example, barbarians are tall and powerful, and a barbarian can easily kill them. There are dozens of us ordinary people, so we want martial arts cultivators to participate in the war, because martial arts cultivators are much stronger than ordinary people, but despite this, we are still weak when facing the barbarians, that is because of our natural disadvantages. "
"But while we have disadvantages, we also have advantages. We have some advantages that the barbarians cannot compare with us." The Northern Expedition general became more and more excited as he talked, and began to talk endlessly: "We are flexible enough!!"
The fundamental reason why Lu Jiu chose to let everyone contact each other for running is to take advantage of the human race's biggest advantage, flexibility.
Since you have an advantage, you should make good use of it. Running is to make the human race more flexible, and adopting guerrilla tactics is to magnify this advantage without limit.
If you are good, then you are good. I won’t fight you head-on. I will see what you can do to me. You come and beat me and I will run. You can’t run but you can’t run. Since you can’t run, I will use my flexibility. Sex, I want to kill you, what can you do? ?
This is the fundamental reason why Lu Jiu was able to lead two thousand households and easily kill eight hundred barbarians. It was because Lu Jiu made the most correct choice.
In an instant, the three generals clearly analyzed Lu Jiu's choice and the situation on the battlefield.
The other generals present were all enlightened. No one thought that Lu Jiu, who had a rough background, could have such talent in leading troops.
At this time, not to mention them, even the three generals Weiyuan, Northern Expedition and Huguo were excited. The Northern Expedition general was the first to speak: "Shenhou, if such good generals only cultivate according to martial arts, they will be appointed As a partial general, it would be a bit too incompetent. I suggest that Lu Jiu be recalled and entrusted with important tasks, so that he can lead more troops and fight more victorious battles."
At this time, for them, Lu Jiu could win the war. This was no longer of great significance to them. Mainly because of Lu Jiu's actions, they saw hope. Before, they led the troops to fight and fought hard. It was brute force, and of course it was not without thinking about using their brains, but none of them thought that Lu Jiu's method of using troops and Lu Jiu's method of winning the battle this time were actually worthy of serious study by the entire army and they could apply what they learned when the time comes.
This is not enough. The Northern Expedition general now absolutely believes that since Lu Jiu can come up with such a way to fight, he can definitely come up with other tactics. This is a good young man who can lead troops to fight. He can even be said to be a genius. Now, they need to do something The purpose is to provide Lu Jiu with a broader platform.
"Yes, Lord Shen, a thousand troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find." The general protecting the country also spoke at this time, agreeing with the proposal of the general of the Northern Expedition.
General Weiyuan also expressed his opinion, agreeing with the views of the previous two generals.
They have all led troops in wars for many years, so they naturally know how important a good general is to them.
The battle with the barbarians is a battle of life and death, not a child's play.
"Okay, since the three generals have recommended it, how can you not listen?" Luo Shenhou said at this time: "Come on, hurry up three hundred miles, go to the front line, Xuan Lu Jiu Return Camp!!"
A scout immediately took the order, and with the help of a strong Confucian and Taoist man, he hurried to the frontline battlefield with his feet on the blue clouds.
…
At the same time, in the North, the barbarian base camp.
A man with a handsome face and a medium build was sitting in front of the camp, listening to the reports from the people below.
"Three thousand barbarian warriors, all died on the battlefield?" The handsome man's face changed slightly, then he took a deep breath and said, "Tell me the complete situation."
