The first emperor of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 313 Defects
From ancient times to the present, the real collapse of the army has never been a physical blow. A person's consciousness is wrapped in the will of thousands of people. What he thinks has never been the focus. What really determines the outcome is often the If each person's opinion on the whole group can be summed up and taken as an average, it is the strength of the army.

Strict training, everyone around has a strong physique, there are reasons why they cannot retreat, strict military regulations, and every drill that is prohibited by orders.

At the end of all these things, it is actually a bargaining chip in people's hearts, "We are very strong", "We will never retreat", the heavier the bargaining chip, the stronger the army, the so-called military spirit, in the end It's such a simple thing, but to achieve it, it takes a lot of practice.

When the rebels went down the mountain, they were originally an army with such beliefs, but their "very strong" cognition did not come from training, military regulations, etc., but from looking at the enemy's strength in every robbing and killing. Fear builds up gradually.

Today's imperial court is facing internal and external troubles, floods have destroyed people's homes, and the people at the beginning of the period only gathered here for a bite to eat.

Later on, Li Lei had some tricks, leading everyone to rob the rich and help the poor, eat meat and drink in large bowls, and summoned a large number of green forest heroes. confidence.

It's a pity that this kind of self-confidence really suppresses too many hidden dangers. This is a false self-confidence without foundation, just like rootless duckweed, which cannot withstand the wind and rain.

When these things were detonated within a few days and the killing on the battlefield unfolded, not many people thought they would retreat. They were still eager to win and eager to win.

It's a pity that the so-called military spirit has never been in this, but that when the other side shouted such rumors, everyone would feel "impossible" or "possible".

The psychology that is only separated by a line, when combined into the heart of the army, determines the attribution of millions of lives.

The sun shines on the clouds, rendering the afternoon scene bright, on Lijiazhuang.

The yelling and killing continued and never stopped, and the yelling in the village continued excitedly, and groups of people rushed to the stone wall.Then he was killed again.Only the high-level generals of the rebel army can understand that the casualties on their side are continuously increasing, and as time goes by, the fighting spirit of the rebel soldiers is still decreasing.

In just one hour.The number of casualties on the rebel side is probably close to 3000. This is due to the huge damage caused by the desperate attack of many leaders of the rebel army. Countless flags rushed past and were pressed back.

The circle of stone walls in Lijiazhuang is becoming stronger and taller in the eyes of the rebels.

By this time, the rate of casualties on the rebel side had begun to slow down.

When the initial frenzy passed, amidst the constant yelling inside, the morale of the army was shaken and morale dropped, and the brothers who rushed to the stone wall one after another were drowned.

The pawns who were charging forward were somewhat hesitant, and even some small and medium leaders began to weigh whether withdrawing troops was the right way. No one thought that more than 5000 people would end up in a war of attrition with [-] people.

"What's there to say! Didn't you know this from the very beginning! We can't go back if we can't beat this village!" On the side of the battlefield, murderer Zheng Xiu bandaged the wound, raised a big knife, and began to organize. After a wave of attack, his eyes were red from killing at this moment, and he roared loudly: "The ones with the seeds will charge with XX, and XX must attack this stockade today!"

And on the other side.

The other generals of the rebel army continued to cheer up their subordinates. When the brothers or subordinates who were acquainted in the mountains hesitated to come over and ask if they wanted to preserve their strength, if they fought like this, would they want to retreat.

But it was also these leaders who had opposed the strong attack before Li Lei mobilized, and chose the most resolute attack at this time.

The morale of the army is chaotic.

Some people came to ask them, maybe they can suppress it, but in this kind of army formation, I don't know how many people may have such thoughts in their hearts, but they don't want to say it.That's the problem.

But when the bow was opened, there was no turning back.

For everyone in the rebel army, bearing the huge casualties that have accumulated continuously, feeling the collapse of the army's morale and the shake of morale, this is extremely huge pressure.

But for the people in Lijiazhuang, with only 5000 people resisting such wave after wave of attacks, even if the combat power of the rebel generals at this time has been sluggish to a heinous level, they will never be without pressure

.The number of casualties also accumulated on their heads. The attacking side, no matter what, still has tens of thousands of people, and can continue the saturated offensive, but the defending side also needs to be saturated.

When they can't maintain a saturated defense, the real opportunity will come.

Hao Jingcheng, who was in the Li Family Village and was always protected by shields, could clearly feel this.

The cries of the wounded, the dead, and the women and children in Zhuangzi who were carried down continuously also spread anxiety in everyone's heart. Some people even rushed over and cried and asked: "What is the court's decision?" Where is the army! Where is the imperial army!"

Li Biao and others have been cheering up the people in Zhuangzi: "You see! The rebels are getting weaker and weaker! They can't fight anymore! If we hold on today, they will die!"

The rebels are indeed getting weaker and weaker, but the charge led by the leader is still not to be underestimated. After all, those people are some people with high martial arts skills, and it seems that ordinary farmers are not their opponents at all.

Hao Jingcheng had already divided the crossbows around him into two groups to deal with these elite chargers. At the same time, the various shouts that had been arranged before were still in effect, but how the battle would develop, the rebels would last until To what extent is it possible to collapse, he, who lacks actual combat experience, can't actually see it.

The biggest shortcoming of the rebel army is that there are many mountains on top of them. However, when many leaders on the opposite side are still rational, they can maintain the control of their opponents at a bottom line, and constantly use their own charm to lead some of their subordinates to launch attack.

At this time, if there is a big leader who really turns his back on the battlefield, it may decide the direction of the war.

It's a pity that even though many people can see that the rebels may be defeated, they still cannot give such confidence to them if they want to simply vote over. At most, they will only choose to preserve their strength, and then withdraw their troops and run away.
