Military regulations!
When Guan Luoyang said these words, the expressions of many rebel leaders had subtle changes.
In fact, Liangshan would use things like divine Gu as bait and summon them to hold this conference. His ambition is simply obvious. However, in the minds of most rebel leaders, Liangshan's plan is probably the general leader of the rebel army. title.
Just like at the end of the Han Dynasty, when the eighteen princes attacked Dong Zhuo, there would be an alliance leader. For the person who wins the position of alliance leader, it is naturally a great honor and will have real benefits.
However, it is not realistic to say how much control this alliance leader has over other princes. It is more about the power of coordination.
But now, the leader of the alliance has not yet been determined, and Liang Shan dared to say such ruthless words as "military regulations", which immediately aroused the resentment of many rebel leaders.
Lu Junyi shook his head secretly: "The intention of taking the lead is good, but if you go too far, it will be unwise."
Bao Peisong and Cui Daocheng in Prince Li's team looked at each other and saw ecstasy in each other's eyes. They had originally planned to incite the rebels present and suppress Liangshan first.
Now that Liangshan is acting so domineeringly, he is playing into their own hands.
"Ha, are you Guan Luoyang, the leader of Liangshan?"
Bao Peisong said in a loud voice, "Everyone here is here at your invitation. You originally wanted to be the first in the world in Liangshan, attack the government, and raise the flag of rebellion. This will give you some face."
"But none of the leaders of the rebel armies is a hero. Your contempt for us is probably not the behavior of a person with lofty ideals, right?"
Cui Daocheng also echoed and said: "Since ancient times, the treasures of heaven and earth have been inhabited by the virtuous. Liangshan is so narrow-minded, arrogant and rude. It seems that he is definitely not the master of divine Gu."
There was silence around, Wu Hu slapped the wine jar on the table, and said: "I think the leader of Liangshan just made a gaffe. Why don't you entrust the divine Gu to the court first, and then punish yourself with three drinks? That's it." Expose it."
"That's right. Liangshan invited us here in the name of divine Gu, but we still haven't taken out this divine artifact yet. It really shouldn't be the case."
Many rebel leaders could not restrain themselves and expressed their stance one after another.
"Just do it." "What the leaders said is reasonable." "Liangshan is indeed powerful, but we may not be afraid." "Hurry up and take it out!"...
Not only did they express their opinions verbally, but the aura on their bodies was also vaguely restless.
The figures of the rebel leaders sitting behind the long eucalyptus and stone tables all became taller, with colorful lights shining on their bodies, or surrounded by clouds, or burning with dark red turbid flames. Some figures still looked like It is unremarkable, but in the eyes of others, it has grown higher and is full of profound qualities that transcend the ordinary.
Soon, the facial features of these people were hidden in the shadows of the heights, becoming blurred, and they all looked down at Guan Luoyang and others.
Guan Luoyang looked at these people with a smile on his face, looked around the field, and wrote down a few people who had not spoken rashly until now.
He asked in a certain direction: "I haven't asked for advice yet, who is this?"
The silent Shi Sheng looked around and found that Guan Luoyang was indeed asking about his table, so he stood up and said, "My name is Shi Sheng, from Liangzhe. This is my good brother Tao Zongwang."
"good."
Guan Luoyang turned around to look again. Every time his eyes paused, the person he was looking at would naturally feel something.
In a moment, Fang La, Zhang Wanxian, Qiong Ying, Gao Tuoshan and others had already announced their names one after another, some of them themselves, and some of their followers spoke on their behalf.
The behavior of these people obviously did not pay much attention to other rebel leaders.
Bao Pei relaxed his anger, used up his strength, and shouted: "Everyone..."
"Everyone!"
Guan Luoyang also happened to speak at this time. His face became solemn, and when he uttered these two words, it was like two heavy hammers hitting everyone's hearts.
The rebel leaders who had just released their momentum and wanted to unite to suppress the Liangshan people felt their ears buzzing and their heads were a little dizzy. The aura they had released was involuntarily suppressed back into their respective bodies.
With just two words, the chaotic momentum in the field and those condescending illusions were instantly swept away!
Some people couldn't sit still, subconsciously held on to the table, and even knocked over the wine bottle on the table. Their faces were extremely ugly.
The crisp sound of the wine bottle breaking when it hit the stone was so harsh and clear to these people's ears at this moment.
Among these people, the most uncomfortable one was Bao Peisong, whose face turned red and white.
In terms of strength, he was naturally not the weakest among these people, but at that time he was the only one who mentioned the ten powers and wanted to use the sonic power. As a result, he was blocked by the two words "Guan Luoyang" and his whole body was severely beaten. There was a turbulence, and the turbid air overflowed, hitting the internal organs, and the mouth was filled with the taste of rust.
"puff!"
Bao Peisong vomited a mouthful of blood and looked over with shock and resentment.
Guan Luoyang didn't pay any attention to this person at all, and said in a calm voice: "You are the people who can no longer stand the oppression of the government and have only risen up to resist. When you hear me mention military regulations, you will naturally be a little dissatisfied."
"But the military regulations of our rebel army are naturally different from those of the government. In other words, it is precisely because we need to distinguish our rebel army from the actions of this decadent court that the existence of military regulations is even more necessary."
"Even if this court is cruel and cruel, it still controls a large number of soldiers and horses. If there are no clear military regulations to unite all the forces of the rebel armies in the world, we still don't know how many years and months it will take before we can Really change the world.”
Fang La had also taken his men to their seats, facing north and south. At this moment, he said: "It is imperative for the rebel armies of the world to unite, but who should make the military regulations? Which party among the many leaders? Being able to serve as the commander-in-chief of the rebels seems to still need to be discussed."
Zhang Wanxian said leisurely: "The divine Gu is in the hands of Liangshan, but Liangshan will also be the first target of the imperial army in the future. After all, you only have so many local soldiers and manpower. It may not be beneficial to continue to monopolize the divine Gu." . If you want to secure the position of commander-in-chief just by relying on this rare thing, it is not enough to convince me."
Qiong Ying suddenly said: "I'm rather curious about what the military regulations repaired by Liangshan look like. Let's not mention who is the commander-in-chief. Why don't you show us the military regulations first?"
Gao Tuoshan patted the table and said, "I'm also a little interested, let's take a look."
Guan Luoyang waved his sleeves, and nineteen documents flew out of the air and landed on the table of each rebel leader.
Shi Sheng looked at the piece of paper in front of him that was full of handwriting. He coughed slightly and quietly turned his head to look at Tao Zongwang.
Tao Zongwang came closer and said with a sad face: "Don't look at me, I can't read either."
"Although these military regulations have been revised several times, they are actually very simple to summarize."
Guan Luoyang's voice came, giving timely explanations to the illiterate rebel leaders.
"Article 1: No one in the rebel army may harm civilians, intentionally damage houses, plunder property, or take women captive."
"Article 2: After each battle, the rebels in various places must count the number of people, ascertain the losses, describe the victory or defeat, and report to the commander-in-chief of the rebel army. They must report three days in advance before moving the army and attacking the government."
"Article 3..."
These military regulations are indeed very simple. There are only eleven rules in total. After everyone has heard it once, they will know it by heart.
Among the leaders, there were Shi Sheng who nodded frequently while listening, Zhang Wanxian who had a look of emotion on his face, and Fang La who was thinking while listening, but most people didn't take it seriously.
Gao Tuoshan laughed loudly: "These military regulations are too petty. It is not allowed to damage crops on a large scale, and it is not allowed to search for food in ordinary people's homes. Then if we encounter an encirclement and suppression, and when we have to march in a hurry, do we still have to give up my troops in vain? Brothers, are you going to take a detour and starve?”
Someone behind Guan Luoyang said: "We have made actual inspections and estimated that as long as the rebel army can maintain a certain level of victory, then just the inspection of the local government, local tyrants and evil gentry, and the wealthy families colluded with government and businessmen will be enough to supply the rebel army, and even some The surplus.”
Gao Tuoshan glanced away: "Who are you, dare to say such big words?"
"I am Li Kaixian, currently the counselor of Liangshan."
Guan Luoyang only brought four people, three men and one woman.
Li Kaixian walked out from behind him and said in a neither humble nor condescending manner, "I was also a Jinshi in the imperial examination. What I said above was not groundless. It was after I captured Quancheng in Liangshan, I checked the official documents and letters exchanged between the Quancheng magistrate's office and various places in detail. After the estimation, the conclusion is drawn.”
"The Song Dynasty is famous for its wealth. Today, the world is not in a famine year, and there are no major disasters in the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers. There is plenty of food and supplies in various places, but it is just that they cannot reach the hands of the people."
"And the rebels will have the opportunity to use those resources that are extravagant, greedy, and unwilling to transfer even if they rot, on the right path."
Gao Tuoshan frowned and couldn't think of anything to say to refute.
Lu Junyi said: "But the premise of maintaining a winning record is difficult enough. Even if it is a ratio of one victory to one defeat, most of the rebels cannot do it."
Everyone choked and suddenly turned to look at him. Although he was telling the truth, they really couldn't speak.
Guan Luoyang smiled softly and said: "So, if you want to be the leader of the rebels, you must be able to help other rebels, and you must be able to continue to win when facing the court."
Gao Tuoshan stood up: "Then how can we compete? Let's put on a stage and show our brilliant abilities as leaders?"
"The strength of the leader is very important, and the ability to lead the troops is also very important."
Guan Luoyang said, "It is indeed a competition, but we must first compare the art of war."
How does the art of war compare?
Gongsun Sheng stepped forward, pulled out the ancient pine-patterned sword, muttered something, and pointed to the open space in the center of the peak.
The grass on the mountain disappeared, the stone statues were buried, and the soil on the ground flowed like fine sand. Many clods of soil rose and settled one after another in an orderly manner. In the center of the grassland on the peak, a miniature land of mountains and rivers was outlined.
There are mountains and hills, winding rivers, every size, and in the middle there is a fortified city about the size of half a person. The river passes through the city gate and goes straight into the city. Not far outside the city stands a small boundary monument - Yizhou.
"Following the order of the big leader, Pindao and others have been using the art of flying for several days to survey the mountains and rivers of Yizhou and create this sand table for the deduction. All the proportions are the same as the real mountains and rivers of Yizhou."
While Gongsun Sheng was speaking, he took off a cloth bag from his waist and threw it into the air. The mouth of the bag opened, and a stream of dim yellow turbidity spurted out, falling on the mountains and rivers of Yizhou, making a dull sound, and the speckled yellow wooden figures, Continuously bursting out in all directions.
The leaders of the rebels took a closer look and found that the little wooden figures were only the size of a knuckle of an adult man, but they had all four limbs and could run and jump, which was very strange.
Even those wooden villains are divided into different types of soldiers.
Some have the character "horse" written on their bodies, and the soles of their feet are carved into small wheels. They are obviously faster than other wooden figures, and they are larger and heavier. They represent cavalry.
There are little wooden figures with hollow arms that can shoot flying needles, representing archers.
There are also people holding spears and shields, with the word grain written on their bodies, which represents those who escort grain and grass.
Soon, thousands of little wooden figures were evenly spaced and arrayed among the miniature landscape.
After the mechanism Yanjia unit led by Liu Huiniang was destroyed, Guan Luoyang sent Ling Zhen and the others to use the waste and transform it into many wooden figures that looked like dolls, which also took a lot of effort from Ling Zhen and the others.
Gongsun Sheng said: "We in Liangshan now have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and the generals are like clouds. If we rely on the large number of people to bully the small people, even if we can overwhelm the leaders, we will not be able to show our skills in the art of war."
"These wooden soldiers all have the same body and the same strength. Each leader or counselor can pick two thousand each and fight against each other with Yizhou City as the target."
"Whoever can hold on for three quarters of an hour after capturing this city can be regarded as the winner of this rebel military exercise."
"The winner is the leader of the world's rebels."
As soon as he finished speaking, several rebel leaders pushed up the table and shouted with excitement on their faces: "Is this true?!"
"Can you be the master of Liangshan?"
"As long as we win at this thing, Liangshan will support us and give me the divine Gu?!"
Guan Luoyang answered cheerfully: "This is my promise. If I break my promise, I will call the sky to bring disaster and five thunders to my head."
In order to compete for military skills, actual combat is actually the only criterion. However, the situation of the rebels is obviously not suitable for an actual combat first, so they have to use such deductions to reflect part of their level.
Although it is a joke on paper, this kind of deduction is also something that many famous players have experienced.
Since ancient times, there are not a few people who have demonstrated their talents through paper deductions and grown into truly famous generals.
More importantly, none of the rebel leaders present lacked self-confidence. They had all defeated the government's demonic soldiers with inferior civilian forces. Even if they were defeated and fled, they would never think that it was them. The reason is obviously just because he doesn't have elite soldiers under his command.
Naturally, they all felt that as long as the quality and number of their soldiers were no less than those of their opponents, they would definitely not lose.
Soon, everyone picked their own soldiers and stationed them "a hundred miles" away from Yizhou City, choosing the terrain they thought was favorable.
Prince Li stepped out of his sedan chair, Qiongying and Lu Junyi discussed and decided on a place to station together.
Even Fang La personally shed a silvery light, selected his own soldiers, and commanded them from afar.
Some rebel leaders even felt secretly happy when they saw this scene.
Based on the force shown by Guan Luoyang and Fang La before, these people thought that if they took action directly, they would never gain any advantage, but now if the outcome is decided in this way, everyone has a chance.
'Even if my martial arts and spells are not as good as yours, I can still raise the rebels. Doesn't it prove that I am stronger than you in this kind of thing! '
They all thought this way, so after Gongsun Sheng issued the order to start the war, they were the fastest to be wiped out.
During the march, they were eliminated. After all the wooden villains under their command were defeated, these people were still immersed in a confused mood and couldn't figure out why such a thing happened.
During the deduction, everyone has a perspective overlooking the overall situation, so these rebel leaders can see the movements of other soldiers and horses.
But sometimes, there are several soldiers and horses around them approaching their own soldiers and horses, and they can't tell which ones they encountered by chance during the march, and which ones are malicious to them. They can only tell the difference when the distance is extremely close. A hostile party.
So they began to want to form an army array to deal with the enemy, but it would take time for those little wooden men who were ordered to advance at full speed to stop and deploy their lines to the side.
Often before their line was completed, the enemy's soldiers and horses had already crossed in and destroyed their queue.
"It's okay to break up the queue. Anyway, the qualities of each other are almost the same. If they catch each other and fight, I still don't know who will win and who will lose?" '
Some people continued to command with this idea in mind, and then they saw that the enemy's archers killed the soldiers on their front line with one shot, and the cavalry were cutting grass among their infantry.
When the closely coordinated line of shield-bearers and spear-bearers pressed forward, all of our own stragglers were outnumbered and were easily poked and crushed to the ground. Thin white smoke emitted from their bodies, indicating death.
Wu Hu from Guangnan Road was also one of this group of people. After a failed silence, an angry look appeared on his face. He cracked his knuckles and questioned: "This is a sneak attack. We haven't reached Yizhou City yet." , I'm not ready yet..."
Guan Luoyang glanced over coldly: "If these are really your subordinates and brothers, they only live once. After they die, who are you going to ask for a second chance to prepare?"
Wu Hu was chilled by this sight, and he couldn't help but follow Guan Luoyang's words and make associations. Those little wooden figures who were smoking and fell to the ground each became a living human body and a broken corpse.
The blood flowed freely, and the scarlet scene hit his brain, making his whole body slump.
He returned to his seat in despair. Soon, his good brother Liu Dagu also sat back, and more and more people failed and ended up.
In less than half an hour, the leader of the 19th Route Rebel Army plus Liang Shan, a total of 20 troops, were eliminated, and only six routes remained.
Liang Shan, Fang La, Zhang Wanxian, Qiong Ying, Gao Tuoshan, Prince Li.
Prince Li discussed with Bao Peisong and Cui Daocheng to hide some of their troops in the mountains, hoping to reap the benefits.
Gao Tuoshan controlled his troops and marched between the Yizhou waterways and approached the city.
The soldiers and horses of Qiong Ying and Zhang Wanxian rushed towards Yizhou City unhurriedly.
Fang La has defeated several troops and is attacking the east of Yizhou City.
The Qingzhou Twenty-eight Villages used Qingzhou City to practice their skills. Fang La was directing behind the scenes and had a lot of experience in attacking cities.
But their opponents were the Liangshan troops who had already occupied Yizhou City first and used the convenience of the city wall to defend the city impregnably.
Fangla and Gaotuoshan attacked four times in a row, but were all repelled. After Qiong Ying and Zhang Wanxian's troops arrived, they started fighting on all sides, with four times the strength of the city's troops, but they still couldn't win.
After spending a full two-quarters of an hour, Fang La gathered his troops and horses, rested outside the city, and raised his eyes to see the people in Liangshan.
Guan Luoyang noticed his gaze and smiled at him.
This man was leisurely and leisurely, watching with his hands behind his back. He was actually just watching. The people who really commanded Liangshan's troops were Li Kaixian and Li Jun beside him.
Li Kaixian is well-read in military literature, and he knows the examples of famous generals from past and present by heart.
Although Li Jun is not first-class in terms of military force and his ability to manage logistics is not as good as that of Li Ying, he is a man with great ambitions. He once followed the army to conquer Xixia, and fought in the border army for several years, silently studying Zhang Kai, Zhong Shi Dao, The combat strategies of Zhong Shizhong, Han Shizhong and others are truly figures who have experienced battles for a long time.
With Li Jun as the leader and Li Kaixian as the auxiliary, they gradually killed only twice as many of the four times the troops outside the city.
Gao Tuoshan, who suffered the heaviest loss, couldn't help but say: "Everyone of my naval forces has tattoos of the ancient beasts of Osawa, inheriting the ancient spells of the Wu-Yue conflict during the Warring States Period. The fighting methods of these wooden villains are very important to them." It’s nothing to you, but to me, it’s too restrictive.”
Li Jun opened his mouth to speak, but forced himself to hold back, and turned back to look at Guan Luoyang.
Guan Luoyang smiled and said: "You have no doubts about who you employ. Since I said that this battle will be left to you, then it is all up to you to make the decision."
Li Jun turned around, holding the pearl of wisdom in his hand, and said: "I heard that you fought against the navy three times in the south of the Yangtze River. In the first three battles, you won all three battles. You can swim in the water and move so fast that you are more than 50% better than the elite soldiers of the navy. It is indeed one of the few water fighting teams in the world."
"You can use your own blessing to double the ability of the remaining soldiers and horses underwater."
Gao Tuoshan took a deep breath: "This is what you said!"
He raised his hand and pointed, and streams of water mist condensed from the air, falling down like streamers, dancing and wrapping around the wooden figures under his command.
"Look at me destroying the city!"
Gao Tuoshan fired a single shot, and all the remaining soldiers and horses fell into the water.
There is a river outside Yizhou City, which passes through the city gate and leads directly to the city. Iron fences, Wanjin gates, etc. are set up at the city gate.
However, under the current offensive of soldiers and horses in Gaotuo Mountain, the iron fence was quickly destroyed. The little wooden men dived deep into the water, even dug through the mud and sneaked directly into the city.
However, just as they tried to break out of the water, they were all wrapped up in fishing nets.
Those fishing nets were hidden in the water very inconspicuously. They only revealed their true appearance after being hit by the impact, entangling all the wooden figures who collided with the fishing nets. The soldiers guarding the city next to them took this opportunity to throw a large number of arrows, and even shot stones and gunpowder. The can falls.
Gao Tuoshan said in shock: "Where did you get the fishing nets?!"
Fang La closed and opened his eyes, reviewing all the previous scenes, and said, "It's time to attack the city."
Li Jun smiled and said: "When you were attacking the city, many rolling logs fell from the city wall. At that time, I controlled our soldiers and horses to cut down wood in the city. You only focused on the siege battle, but you didn't notice that the rolling logs fell from the city wall. The bark of the trees has been peeled off.”
"The Rebirth of Financial Giants"
Gao Tuoshan looked closely and saw that all the fishing nets were made of tree bark.
The deduction sandbox created by Gongsun Sheng even had the woods scaled out, and even the bark of the trees could be peeled off for use.
But what's even more amazing is that at that time, Li Jun and the others had already guessed Gao Tuoshan's last-ditch siege method, and even guessed where they would enter the city from.
Gao Tuoshan looked at his own portion of the wooden villains. In the end, only a few escaped from the city and stopped talking.
Li Jun looked at Zhang Wanxian again: "Actually, in this military exercise, other rebel leaders were given preferential treatment, but for Zhang Daozhang, it was really weakened too much."
"Daozhang Zhang's dare-chi army is probably only one percent of the real living soldiers. The rest are paper men and horses, coming and going silently, climbing on the ground and crossing the water. They are far better than these wooden villains. Daozhang Zhang wants to Why don’t you give it a try using real means?”
Zhang Wanxian said calmly: "The art of paper sabers and spears requires warlocks after all. I have 600 warlocks who can't be exchanged for ten thousand gold, and nearly half of the core mana that makes all the paper men obedient is tied to me alone. If I cast a spell, Won’t Liangshan try to kill me in the future?”
Lu Junyi looked at the deduction sand table with admiration on his face, but still said: "Yes, on the real battlefield, elite soldiers and military tactics are important, but the personal force of the general and commander is even more important."
"During the reign of Emperor Daojun, there was a Xixia prince-in-law who was full of ingenuity and excellent soldiers. However, Han Shizhong, an unknown soldier who was only eighteen years old at the time, was mixed in with the corpses and beheaded with a knife."
When he said this, Lu Junyi's mount came pacing without any orders, carrying the big gun, and walked up to him, "The leader of the rebel army, even if he does not insist on being the strongest among us, at least he must be strong enough." .”
Fang La lowered his eyes and said nothing. His soldiers and horses were the most reserved among those participating in the siege. If he wanted to propose a fighting general, he would also be the fairest one.
The leaders of the defeated rebels noticed the change in the atmosphere, cheered up, and paid their attention one after another.
It is said that Liangshan once killed Yun Tianbiao, the Taixu officer in front of the palace, and killed Liu Yongxi, the Taixu doctor, but it is not known whether he was surrounded or killed alone.
Their military tactics have been defeated, but they still want to see how powerful this capital leader is, if they must have a general leader and leader.
"It seems, Wen, you already consider yourself inferior."
Guan Luoyang stretched out his arms, and his two pure white broad sleeves swayed back slightly, hanging down like a banner commanding thousands of troops.
Li Jun, Li Kaixian, and Gongsun Sheng all retreated. Chen Liqing followed Guan Luoyang's prior order and guarded Li Kaixian with her sword.
The four of them retreated behind him.
"Then use force again to subdue his heart!"
Suppressing them with laws and regulations has no dignity; forcing them with force has no virtue.
If you talk about literature and law, rely on military force to kill and conquer, and be completely victorious with both civil and military forces, and be able to make people fear power and embrace virtue, then you have achieved great success!
