On July 18, the third year of Shengfan, Jiang Lie and Wen Sanbian's Lion Yan Yi Army joined forces and stationed in a large urban area.

Since Jiang Lie's not dead has been made public, he no longer has to hide his identity. However, his original armor has been destroyed beyond recognition. Fortunately, there is a spare light armor for non-war wear in the scale jade bracelet. It just so happens that it won't be too stuffy in the hot summer.

That afternoon, Jiang Lie and Wen Sanbian were studying the map in the combat room of the garrison. Duan Biao ran in excitedly and saluted: "Report to the general of the Tiger Roar Army, Hou Weilan, to ask for a meeting!"

Jiang Lie quickly stood up happily: "Hou Weilan? What a good guy, please invite me quickly!"

"Hou Weilan, the general of the Tiger Roar Army, met with General Jiang!" Hou Weilan said happily as soon as he came in.

"Long time no see, don't be fine!" Jiang Lie replied to the military salute and looked at Hou Weilan for a while. He was in a burly physique, wearing the unified rebel armor sponsored by Duan Xiaodong, with a full face full of energy.

Hou Weilan smiled and said, "Master Jiang, since he left in Jinshan last time, the Tiger Fighting Army has been thinking about Master Jiang day and night!"

"Sit first, don't talk about those that are not available." Jiang Lie said and asked Hou Weilan to take his seat. "Everyone is comrade-in-arms, don't call him grandma? When you first came in, you called Jiang Dashuai Jiang. Is it good?"

Hou Weilan took off her helmet and scratched her head: "Master Jiang, isn't this a habit natural? I know you are the boss, but I would rather call you Master Jiang."

Jiang Lie waved his hand: "It's up to you, okay, these are not the key points. I see that the base of your Tiger Roar Army on the map is quite far away. You come here thousands of miles away and you will definitely not be able to enter the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble. Well, what's going on?"

Hou Weilan said seriously: "Jiang, this is the thing. The troops of the head of Jinshan Sect, Yan, discovered the enemy's headquarters. They closely monitored that place every day, and the enemy's commander and direct troops were all there. There. There is the enemy's mind. As long as you take this mind, the overall situation of the whole war will be decided. It just so happened that our Tiger Roar Army is close to the Jinshan Army. Master Yan said that our Tiger Roar Army is faster, Let us come to Mr. Jiang and report a letter to Mr. Jiang.”

Jiang Lie pointed to Hou Weilan at the map on the table and handed him a slender wooden stick: "Where is the headquarters? Circle it on the map for me."

Hou Weilan nodded, took the wooden stick, and used it to draw a circle on the map: "It's here - Shuyi County. There are five counties in Shuyi County, which are distributed in the shape of five-pointed stars like this. .”

"Shuyi County?" Wen Sanbian looked at the location of Shiyi County on the map and suddenly realized, "Shuyi County was originally the garrison of the Eastern Frontier Army. General Wang and the others used to train troops there. The Eastern Frontier Army was the general. After withdrawing, for the Xiang army, it would be a ready-made military base. The Xiang army set its headquarters in Shuyi County, which was quite a bit like the predecessors planted trees and later enjoyed the shade. If the Xiang army's headquarters was really in Shuyi County , then we have to invite General Wang to discuss it carefully.”

Jiang Lie looked at the map, thought for a moment, and said seriously: "The area of ​​Shuyi County is not small. It is not a small stronghold or a small county town. It is a big county and a military base. It is still enemies from all directions. Taking up the area. This is not something that can be fought just by fighting. Since he dares to put his headquarters there, it is enough to show that it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there must be a safe exit that can be evacuated smoothly. Food, supplies and other things are also necessary We need to consider, after all, we are still a distance away from Shuyi County. As of now, we should start attacking Shuyi County now. It is OK, but it is not necessary. It is not a wise enough choice."

Wen Sanbian nodded in thought: "Master, what's your idea?"

Jiang Lie said seriously: "The most efficient battle is to defeat others without fighting. I thought, it's time to spread rumors and confuse the enemy, and defeat them without attacking them. Spread rumors in the enemy-occupied areas, causing the enemy's morale to be in chaos.

Then there is no battle that we cannot win.”

Spreading rumors is a wonderful strategy recorded in the Art of War. By spreading rumors within the enemy, the enemy's morale is unstable and morale is greatly reduced. Once an army loses its morale and morale, it is no different from

A group of walking dead without combat effectiveness.

The reason why Jiang Lie has not yet introduced the strategy of spreading rumors is that spreading rumors requires the right time to achieve the highest benefits. If the time is not right, it will only cause trouble, but will have negative effects on himself.

, on the contrary, may have the ambition of others and destroy one's own majesty.

Since we want to spread rumors, we must spread reasonable rumors that are more realistic and close to reality that can confuse people's hearts. Rumors that even children cannot deceive are of no use.

When the Xiang Army occupied half of Qiu Yi Kingdom with great force, if Wang Luoyin scattered rumors that Emperor Xiangmei would surrender and withdraw his troops, even a child with a bad breast could recognize that this was nonsense. However, at this time, the Xiang Army had already long been

There are no longer as majestic as before, and there are many soldiers of the Xiang army who are throwing away their armor and running away. If the rumors spread at this time that Emperor Xiangmei is about to surrender, then this rumor will be even more deceptive.

Once this rumor works miraculously, the rumor is no longer a rumor, but a fact. In other words, it is called a rumor, but it is actually a prophecy.

Wen Sanbian asked: "What kind of way should I disperse the rumor be dispersed?"

Jiang Liei replied: "It's very simple. Just say that the Lion Army's Qiu Army has the help of the gods, so General Jiang was able to revive the dead, so he was invincible. Emperor Xiangmei knew from afar that the strength and morale of the Xiang Army were declining, so he decided to stop and prepare.

Write a surrender document, surrender to General Jiang of the Lion Flame Army, then withdraw all the troops and go back to his hometown. As long as the rumor is spread successfully, as long as more enemies believe it, the more people will feel that it is meaningless to continue fighting.

, then they will not continue to resist. This is called a soldier who will defeat others without fighting."

Wen Sanbian thoughtfully said: "If this plan is successful, it will definitely be a clever plan and will be efficient. However, can we really cheat the enemy like a fool?"

Jiang Lie shook his head: "This is a bad word. I don't think of them as fools. I have always regarded them as smart people. If I treat them as fools, I will start to disperse rumors when I first came to Qiushiguo.

Why didn't I use the trick of spreading rumors earlier? Because they are not fools, if they spread rumors earlier, they will even be regarded as fools by the enemy. This is the perfect time to spread rumors, because the morale of the enemy is visible to the naked eye.

It's not as good as before. As for the recent battle, you should have discovered it."

Wen Sanbian nodded: "The enemy is as unwilling to be captured as always, but their military character is really worse than before. In the past, they usually choose to retreat unless they really can't beat it. However, in recent days, they have often

It seems to be frightened, and often run away before the fight starts or a little bit of a fight."

"That's right!" Jiang Lie took the wooden stick in Hou Weilan's hand and marked the area of ​​the enemy-occupied area on the map on the table. "The land of Qiu Siguo is fixed so much, and the area of ​​the enemy-occupied area is Yue

The fewer and fewer speeds are getting faster and faster, which has a lot to do with their morale. How many enemies abandon the city and flee, how many enemies throw away their armor, how many enemies run away when they see people. To put it bluntly, they even

Maybe I would rather believe the rumors we spread and wish I could end the war early and go home early."

Wen Sanbian smiled and said, "It's reasonable, the general, let me leave the rumors to the general. If you arrange people to spread rumors in the enemy-occupied area, it will definitely mess up the enemy's morale!"

"Don't be impatient." Jiang Lie's eyes rolled around, "The content of the rumor is probably that's it, but maybe we should make this rumor more concise, easier to spread, and easier to remember.

.For example, compile this rumor into a nursery rhyme, which is catchy and suitable for all ages."

There is a classic nursery rhyme about Song Jiang in "Water Margin" - "The country is consumed because of the family, the swords and weapons are used to point the waterworks. It is thirty-six, and it is spread in Shandong."

The family tree is Song, the water workers are Jiang, and the chaos is rebellion. This nursery rhyme means that Song Jiang is 36 years old this year and is preparing to rebel in Shandong. Although this nursery rhyme is classic, it is not the ideal effect of Jiang Lie.

Not everyone can recognize the word game, and not everyone knows how Song Jiang is written.

The nursery rhyme that Jiang Lie wanted was easy to understand, similar to "Ship Ling's brilliant plan to help the world, and he lost food and grass and soldiers." This is enough to make Ling Diaofei understand it as soon as he heard it, and vomit blood as soon as he understood it.

After a brainstorming, Jiang Lie grinned: "General Wen, come and take the paper and pen."

Jiang Lie took the paper and pen handed over by Wen Sanbian, spread out the white paper, and picked up the pen and wrote a few lines of words on the paper.

Duan Biao stretched his head and looked at the paper and said, "The lion opened his mouth wide, and the elephant turned his head and ran away. Jiang Lie turned into a ghost and asked for debts everywhere. The flying smoke was not free, and the elephant had no grass in the shed. The elephant met the lion's flames.

Like a mouse seeing a cat. Zheng Shuai was out of smoke, and His Majesty was not full. His Majesty wanted to withdraw the troops, but Zheng Shuai was willing to return to the court. The generals had no worries and soldiers had no worries. Return to their hometown to knock on their parents, and return home to respect their brothers and sisters-in-law. The wolf smoke never rises again.

Everything is well.”

This is Jiang Lie's improvisation. After listening to Duan Biao read it once, he was satisfied. Although he had no literary talent, it sounded catchy. All those that should be rhymed are rhymes, and they are not rhymes for the sake of rhymes. It is particularly easy to rhymes.

memory.

Wen Sanbian applauded and praised: "The handsome man is still very literary. This kind of nursery rhyme with five words and five words has a ready-made tune that can be applied. Put a tune on it. This is a simple song, sing it in song.

It will be easier to spread and easier to remember. If you come, get my piano!"

The two soldiers immediately carried Wen Sanbian Yaoqin in.

Wen Sanbian arranged the Yaoqin, sat upright, tried the audition, and smiled and said, "Person Duan, take that piece of paper in front of me. I looked at the lyrics and sang while playing."

Duan Biao carefully picked up the piece of paper with both hands and squatted in front of Wen Sanbian, so that Wen Sanbian could clearly see every word written on the paper.

Wen Sanbian played the piano and sang loudly: "The lion opened his mouth wide, and the elephant turned his head and ran away. Jiang Lie turned into a ghost and asked for debts everywhere. The flying smoke was not free, and there was no grass in the shed. The elephant met the lion's flames, like a rat.

Seeing the cat. Zheng Shuai was out of stock, His Majesty was not full. His Majesty wanted to withdraw the troops, but Zheng Shuai was willing to return to the court. The generals had no worries and soldiers had no worries. Return to their hometown to knock on their parents, and return home to respect their brothers and sisters-in-law. The wolf smoke no longer rose, everything was-
