Zhao Bing knew that under the current system, soldiers were far away from political affairs and had no right to manage local administrative affairs. If they wanted to be a marquis and generals, they could only gain military achievements through war. Therefore, unless this soldier was greedy and afraid of death, any soldier hoped to be able to conquer cities and plunder the land and win the battle field. And his words could hit the minds of the generals of the four armies.

Zhao Bing understood that if the knots of the generals of the four armies could not be untied, the morale of the army would inevitably affect the army over time, and then be content with the status quo, which would cause the morale of a strong army to be exhausted and it would be difficult to take on the heavy responsibility. If you want an army to revitalize morale, the best way is to make them understand their own value and understand that they are not an optional pawn.

"Do you know Wu Zixu?" Zhao Bing asked loudly.

"I know, in order to avenge my father and brother, Wu Zixu assisted King Fuchai of Wu to conquer Chu, digging the tomb of King Ping of Chu, and whipping three hundred corpses!" Wu Zixu, as a tragic hero, had white hair and seven stars in the abyss and rewarded his kindness for the Dragon Boat Festival, and was well-known and praised by the people. There were temples and temples in many places in the south of the Yangtze River, so many people knew about his deeds. As soon as he finished speaking, someone replied loudly.

"Yes, but do you know how Wu Zixu did it?" Zhao Bing asked again.

"I don't know, Your Majesty will tell us!" The emperor was also a god-like existence in the Song army. He only brought a team of guards to the court to succeed the throne. He was placed under house arrest by a minister with ulterior motives in Gong Zheng. He was not afraid. He told the Three Kingdoms to the guards in the house arrest to improve their military literacy. The story of the story of the emperor's question was also widely circulated in the army. When he heard His Majesty's question, someone immediately asked him.

"Okay, I will tell this story today. You can come and listen!" Zhao Bing nodded when he saw the successful arousing the interest of the generals. After seeing the warning withdrawal, some soldiers looked around. After finding that no one was driving him away, they slowly moved closer to the venue. So more and more people gathered, but in the end they were afraid and did not dare to get too close. They just watched from afar. He waved his hand and let the soldiers come over.

"Your Majesty, this..." The emperor's suggestion made Sun Kai, who was sitting in front, feel very embarrassed. He wanted to speak out and persuade him, but was interrupted.

"Although I am not as good as Pan An, I am not worse than you. Are you still afraid of embarrassing me? They have met Long Yan for several years, and there are also some after they retired and returned home!" Zhao Bing touched his face and said with a smile.

In fact, his is not false at all. In ancient times, there were not many people around him who had really seen Long Yan. Even if he had the magistrates of the court, he was at least five or above. If the people who were scheduling behind him were a little myopic, he could not see the emperor clearly. This also caused the Ming and Qing dynasties that could not afford to buy a tonic for the official uniform that indicated the official rank, so he used paper to write a joke on the official uniform to paste it. However, it was also obvious that the people standing behind him could not see clearly what the emperor looked like.

This is true for officials, and it is even more difficult for ordinary people to see the emperor. The emperor's portrait is kept in the palace, and it is not possible to see it just by looking at it. Take the portrait of Zhao Bing worshiping the Three Holy Temple in Yingfu before. People of the underclass cannot even get in, let alone take a look at it.

The Song Dynasty was a little better. The emperor would ride a cart to enjoy the lanterns during the Lantern Festival. At this time, he would not put the curtains on the car, so that the people could see the dragon face in person. This also became a grand event of the Lantern Festival in Tokyo, attracting countless people to watch, but there were a few people who could see it clearly. Therefore, ordinary people who had seen the emperor were even more scaly and phoenix horns, and they could only see the dragon face for a lifetime.

"Everyone can surround me, otherwise it would be a pity that I couldn't hear my story clearly. In addition, someone wanted to assassinate me, and there was a yen gun!" So it was once a year since Zhao Bing asked the troops to surround me and listen to the lecture. Sun Kai had no choice but to let the troops sit outside the generals and separate them from His Majesty at a certain distance, but Zhao Bing smiled and called on the troops to get closer.

"We are willing to be loyal to Your Majesty and will never refuse to die!"

"If you want to be unfavorable to Your Majesty, you will be the public enemy of our four armies!"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, we are willing to block the gun for Your Majesty, and we will die without regrets!"... As soon as Zhao Bing finished speaking, people shouted in chaos among the troops. For a moment, the crowd was in high spirits and their morale was high.

"I have such a good man, why worry about the immortality of the Tartars? The ambitions are hard to fulfill!" Zhao Bing suppressed his hands, and the court immediately became quiet. He whispered loudly.

"Your Majesty is mighty and powerful in the Song Dynasty!"

"Your Majesty is mighty and powerful in the Song Dynasty!"

"Your Majesty is mighty and powerful in the Song Dynasty!" After hearing this, the soldiers immediately raised their arms and shouted in harmony, and then started a climax.

"Okay, let's start telling stories!" Zhao Bing asked someone to hang up a map, and after calming down, he pointed to the map and said, "In the 14th year of King Jing of Zhou, a great war broke out between Wu and Chu. The cause was that Cai and Tang were bullied by Chu in the south, formed a Zhaoling Alliance, and destroyed Chu's vassal Shen. The territory of Cai State is around Caizhou, and the territory of Tang State is mainly in Suizhou, which is the area where your four armies are now stationed!"

"The State of Chu was furious and led its troops northward, crossing the Nanyang Basin and Fangcheng Passage to clean up Cai State. King Helu of Wu immediately mobilized the country's strength and gathered 30,000 people to go west along the Huai River to rescue Cai State. When the army walked to Huangchuan, a general in the army suddenly suggested: Let's not go west, go south. The chief general at that time was particularly puzzled, it's good to go west along the Huai River. Now you abandon the boat and land on the Wu army's advantage in water war. Have you drunk too much?"

"This general leads his troops to speed. Now he can only repel the Chu army when he goes to save Cai. If we go south, we can directly break into the hinterland of Chu, and do whatever we want. So the general led 3,500 people straight to Xinyang, and then passed through the Great Tunnel and Chasing the Male Tunnel at a rapid speed. These three places are the three passes of Yiyang. They rushed out from the tunnel between the Dabie Mountains of Tongbai, and rushed south to Hanchuan, and their troops were approaching the Han River. Guess what will happen when the King of Chu knows?" Zhao Bing pointed at Zero with his finger at the position of the third pass and asked Zhongrang.

"The main force of the Wu army arrived later, and the King of Chu was scared to pee!" Someone replied loudly, which caused laughter from everyone.

"It's good, the King of Chu was frightened. But there are also capable people in Chu State, whose name is Shen Yinshu. He suggested that the Chu army directly attack Xinyang from Fangcheng. After capturing Xinyang, the enemy warships were burned down, and the Wu army's way back was cut off. Then the Chu army's chief general Zichang forced the Wu family to fight again, and he could accomplish his best." Zhao Bing continued, "The plan was very good. If the Chu army followed the plan, even if it could not completely wipe out the Wu army, it could still hurt it. But the Chu general was always greedy for me and before Fangcheng's troops could move, he would attack the Wu army first."

"The Wu army saw through the Chu general's plan and retreated all the way, waiting for work between Hanchuan and Hanyang, and using a series of dazzling actions to make Zichang dizzy, and finally completely defeated the Chu army in Baiju." Zhao Bing pointed zero on the map and drew another line.

"The Chu army was defeated and retreated along the Anlu Jingshan Mountain. Shen Yinshu, the Chu general who had already entered Henan, hurried back to the rescue after hearing the news of the defeat and defeated the Wu army's vanguard. At this time, the Wu general who proposed to attack the three passes of the country miraculously arrived in time and destroyed Shen Yinshu head-on. As a result, from then on, the Chu army ran west crying and chased westward. The Wu army screamed and chased westward, and actually defeated the Chu capital Yingdu, which is today's Jingzhou. Wu Zixu dug the tomb and opened the coffin, and whipped the corpse of King Ping of Chu. "

"You see, the strength of Wu and Chu was very different, with 200,000 people in Chu, and only 30,000 people in Wu. But because the Wu army suddenly bounced into the three passes south, entered the heart of Chu, and confronted the Han River with the Chu army. Then he realized the plan of Chu army to block the big tunnel and cut off its retreat, and finally captured the Chu army. As a result, the Chu army lost its initiative and could only run away. Finally, they were defeated by one by one, and even lost the capital. It can be seen how important the three passes are. The person who planned this battle fell down and immediately reversed the offense and defense, and they all survived. Who do you think this person is?" Zhao Bing asked loudly again.

"Soldier Saint Sun Wu!" someone answered below.

"Yes, this person is Sun Wu, the saint of the Northern Wei Dynasty. People also call him the founder of military and military disciplines of hundreds of generations. The "Sun Tzu's Art of War" written by the generals became a must-read study for generals. Therefore, we not only know the importance of the three passes of Yiyang, but the enemy also knows it. This is by no means an exception. The guardian of the three passes of the Northern Wei Dynasty once rebelled and returned to Nanliang. The whole country was shocked. King Tuoba Ying of Zhongshan led his army to besiege, and at least he recaptured it. When the enemy leader of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty entered the south, he also broke the Jiuli Pass from here, and within ten he arrived at the bank of the Yangtze River and besieged Ezhou."

"When we analyze the general trend, we have a lot of words. What dominant places, such as the roads of a certain province, the north and south to control the west and east to control the east and so on. In fact, the geography is not that complicated. In essence, it is nothing more than a passage and a pass. The plain is divided into various shapes by mountain grasslands, deserts and rivers. There are connection channels between regions. Areas with many channels are thoroughfares. The cities on the passage are levels. The fact is that simple." Zhao Bing said again after a turn of the tone.

"The three passes of Yiyang are just like these. They are located south of Xinyang, on the dividing line between Tongbai Mountain and Dabie Mountain. They will suppress three narrow passages between Tongbai Mountain, which divide Jinghu Lake and the Central Plains and the Dabie Mountains. The location of the three passes is particularly straight, so you can't get around at all and must go. Therefore, at the beginning of the Northern Expedition, the mission of your Fourth Army clearly pointed out: In order to ensure the connection between the east and west battlefields, your troops must seize the three passes as fast as possible, rely on the Dabie Mountains to resist the enemy, and echo the actions of the Jingxiang and the two Huaihe battlefields."

"It has been clear that your troops are not simply taking on the garrison task, but a surprise soldier under his slump!" Zhao Bing knocked on the map and said solemnly...
