My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 463
Under the bright moon, the moonlight and cool water blend together, exuding a clear luster.

Li Xin was facing the soldiers with his sword, his eyes shining.

"They are all my good brothers. This time, if you follow me, all the brothers will be knighted!"

When everyone heard this, they raised their weapons and shouted,
"General Lee!"

"General Lee!"

Under Qin's military meritocracy system, whoever can follow a general with a fighting style like Li Xin's will have one foot on the title list of Qin Wangzheng.

Li Xin's favorite thing is to fight face to face with the enemy. He likes to take the lead in charging.

When fighting, which tasks are most advantageous for soldiers?

Naturally, it belongs to the harvesting category.

Next is the charging team.

The most important thing is to be brave and not afraid of death!

Life and death, success or failure, the more important the event, there is no time for you to think about what to do.

Therefore, when fighting, the most important quality of the soldiers participating in the first echelon is not physical strength or superb skills.

In this open field, when Li Xin stood at a high place, his loud voice was enough for everyone among the ten thousand sergeants to hear his words.

And for those who start to be frightened and want to run away once they see the enemy troops and bloody scenes, it will be the turn of the sword of death to fall on their necks.

Only by integrating as one can their army be invincible and invincible; and only by integrating as one can the number of casualties among the soldiers be reduced.

If soldiers can forget life and death on the battlefield, just one look can scare away the opponent.

Li Xin drew his sword.

Once fear is revealed, it's not that the enemy suddenly becomes skilled in swordsmanship, but that the soldier's legs become weak and his flaws are exposed. Such soldiers are very conspicuous on the battlefield.

Sometimes, being too high up is not a good thing. For example, Fusu may never have the opportunity to experience Li Xin's experience of leading troops to charge in his entire life.

No matter what kind of person you were in the past, when you join such a team, listen to the cry of everyone. From that moment on, you forget that you are an individual and merge into the whole army.

He responded to the soldiers before the battle, so that each soldier could better integrate into the group.

And it is this kind of forward team that can often give birth to martyrs! A future Duke, and a future replacement wartime commander.

All in one thought.

According to the Book of Changes, the two completely different results of whether the earth and heaven are peaceful and whether the heaven and earth are peaceful are caused by the difference of one thought.

"Wind!" Ten thousand soldiers, their eyes flashed together, no different from the twinkling stars in the sky.

Now, standing in front of Li Xin were such a group of men who were not afraid of death.

Li Xin rode up to the team, "Brothers, do you still remember the special slogans we Qin people use when fighting?"

It's like a rookie caught in a pack of wolves, and naturally dies very quickly.

Only when the forwards are not afraid of death can they clear a path for the rear troops and boost the morale of the entire army.

On the battlefield, the fastest and bravest soldiers can often put their swords on the neck of death.

"Wind" is a slogan of the army.

Because of the limitations of communication conditions in ancient times, commanding operations could only be carried out through signal flags and messengers. However, sometimes there were too many troops, and the messengers and signal flags were too late to convey orders in time. The general would shout slogans to the army. Convey orders.

Because this method of command transmission is relatively error-prone, it is only used to issue simple commands such as charge, retreat, etc. Later, such an order was written in the form of a morale-boosting slogan because of its simplicity, and "Wind, wind, wind, strong wind"!
On the battlefield, the psychological state of soldiers almost determines success or failure.

When charging, they often have the upper hand, and the simplest and most direct orders can arouse the fighting spirit of the soldiers.

But retreat is different. Calling for retreat directly on the battlefield will not only affect the morale of the soldiers, but also have secondary effects.

The ancient Chinese were practicing psychology thousands of years earlier than the West.

Therefore, retreat is never shouted directly, especially in special battle situations. The army will stipulate these secret signals internally in advance.

Sometimes, it is also a slogan for formation, with the main purpose of catching the opponent by surprise; when retreating, the more the opponent has the upper hand, if you shout directly to retreat, it will appear that the general is in a state of embarrassment, which will affect the mood of the soldiers and make people feel uncomfortable. If you panic, something will go wrong.

But changing the slogan can help the soldiers to retreat with a normal mind without the psychological burden.

Li Xin asked again, "What is the iron rule when we fight?"

The soldiers all shouted together, "It is forbidden."

That is to say, if an order is given, it must be implemented immediately, and if a ban is given, it must be stopped immediately.

Li Xin nodded.

"Tonight, we are getting ready to leave. Which of you can't let go of your wife and children? You can stand up now. This is your last chance to regret it."

After Li Xin finished speaking, the entire team was silent. Everyone looked at Li Xin, and no one looked left or right.

"Think clearly! Because during wartime, I will set up a war supervisor. If someone escapes or dares not to charge, you will not die by the sword of the Chu people, but by the sharp sword of the war supervisor."

"Ask me again, is there any?"

At this time, all the officers and soldiers in the army stood up and said in unison, "I am willing to live and die with the general, and advance and retreat together!"

After shouting slogans three times, the soldiers all felt refreshed and felt full of strength.

Li Xin laughed and said, "Okay! Soldiers, follow me and set off!"

Li Xin looked up at the stars, then pointed his sword at the road to one side.

In the middle of the night, the bright moon shines brightly in the sky, and everything on the earth appears clearly.

An army rushed through the tall Jianjia like lightning.

The well-equipped chariot flew past, the three-sided pyramid of the spear shining with cold light in the cold night.

The bushes and weeds on the roadside were swept eastward by the air carried by the army as they passed by.

Although the march was said to be in the middle of the night, it was actually to allow the soldiers to escape the scorching heat. There are always some flexibility in execution. When choosing a deserted trail, Li Xin led the soldiers forward every day from dusk to early morning.

If it encounters a walled city, it will directly crush the opponent's defense team.

Not a single person will be left alive, let alone leaking information.

Some small cities in Chu State had no time to react, and their defenses were completely destroyed by the Qin army with overwhelming force.

And Li Xin was able to do so without any casualties in his army.

Simply a miracle!
Behind him, Yang Miao personally led the soldiers to pursue Li Xin in order to suppress Li Xin's formation.

It's just that they are really tired.

"Li Xin, whose burden has been reduced, is like a wild horse that has escaped the reins. This is good, he has really turned into lightning."
