Chapter 717 Encounter

After a dreamlike day, Ming Weiyan and others were able to leave the prison. People in the immortal way have never been bound by the laws of humanity. Many people went up the mountain when they were young and received education under the immortal system. This experience was really the first time.

Of course, if this experience must be defined as humiliation, it’s up to them. Seeing more of the style outside the immortal way and being educated by the outside world is not a bad thing for them. The sooner they abandon the idea of ​​the Taoist ancestor being the eldest and me being the second, the better.

Under the pretext of returning to their original place to register, Ming Weiyan and others half-ran and half-escaped from the capital. Feeling the long-lost magic power, many people breathed a sigh of relief.

They also understood the power of humanity for the first time. The feeling of imprisoning all magic power and inspiration, perhaps they never want to experience it again in their lifetime.

In fact, if it were an ordinary human dynasty, it might not have such a result. Mingguo first had a quasi-great sage like Wu Yi’s grandfather. In the human way, he was an immortal, just like a seed with genetic bloodline that could grow into a tree instead of a grass.

Secondly, the vast territory, countless people under its rule, and sufficient popularity are like seeds with sufficient nutrients to grow.

If Mingguo really continues to grow, it may not grow to a point where even the Supreme Being of the Cave Heaven can do nothing about it.

However, unless one day the Heart Demon Body grows into a Star Lord, Wu Yi will not allow such a thing to happen. Even if the other party is his relative, selfishness is selfishness! The fundamental purpose is different, which is like talking to a chicken and a duck.

In fact, during the growth of Mingguo, some people who practiced magic power had already felt a severe threat and turned to support other countries, with a trend of immortals against humanity.

However, the reason why humanity can grow stronger is that it can integrate the power of all living beings, water drips through stones, and rivers flow into the sea, so Mingguo still maintains a trend of rapid expansion.

If nothing unexpected happens, the entanglement between immortals and humans in the Yang world of Mingyue Realm will last for a long time, and the forces of the gods under the command of the Heart Demon Body only need to maintain a balance in it.

The idea of ​​trying to use the Ming Kingdom to promote the Yiqi Sect was dispelled. Ming Weiyan and others left the Ming Kingdom tactfully. The farther they were from the capital, the less restrained they were. When they reached the border between the two countries, this oppression was even closer to nothing.

Those who could move away from the border between the two countries had already left, and those who did not leave also hid in the deep mountains and old forests, avoiding the world. The forest was shady and the birds were singing.

It was a coincidence that Ming Weiyan and others happened to watch a small army encounter between hundreds of people from the two countries.

Since ancient times, military disasters have been better than natural disasters, especially Wu Yi's grandfather implemented the method of recording merits by human ears in the Ming Kingdom. If the ears were cut off, who would know whether they were soldiers or ordinary people, whether they were from the enemy country, or whether they were killing innocent people in the country to claim merit.

A system cannot be perfect and needs to be continuously improved. Military merits tempt people's hearts. There is a lack of sufficient supervision power, so they can only be punished afterwards. Even if there are many heads rolling, it does not stop many people's thoughts.

Is it easier to fight on the battlefield or to kill an ordinary citizen? If you really want to say that killing ordinary citizens is wrong, many so-called ordinary people on the battlefield are actually spies in disguise. If you kill these spies, will it be considered a meritorious service?

Analyze specific issues in specific ways. It is easy to say, but there are countless problems in practice. This is also the point where philosophy is criticized by people. It is easy to know but difficult to do.

Let alone other things, even on the battlefield, the arms are divided into infantry, archers and cavalry. The cavalry has such a fast charge speed. Who has the heart to pick up heads? The first rule on the battlefield is to survive. If you don’t have a life, who will speak for you? The military merit you have worked hard for will also be taken by your superiors or colleagues. It is not worth it.

The archers shot a wave of long-range shots, and many people were shot into hedgehogs. Whose arrows hit and whose arrows missed? Which arrow hit the enemy and gave the enemy a fatal blow?

In comparison, the infantry is quite heroic, and there are not so many worries about merit. They sing military songs and stride forward. After cutting the enemy's head with a knife, they don't cut off the ears. They just put the chopped head on their belts and exchange it for money.

The archers fired one or two volleys, and the infantry went out to fight. Blood and flesh flew everywhere, and internal organs, intestines, and all kinds of strange things could be seen in this flesh and blood machine.

When the two sides were in a stalemate, the cavalry rushed from the flank, crushed the enemy's confidence, and resolved the battle. Then there was a bloody slaughter.

Generally speaking, when two armies fight, the number of people who really die on the front battlefield is generally no more than 10%. If it exceeds 10%, ordinary armies will be shaken and need special military supervisors to hold the line and kill those who escape.

If the casualties exceed 20%, unless it is a battle for an important stronghold, it is basically necessary to call off the troops. If the battle continues, the enemy will not be in chaos, and our side will be in chaos.

The more an army can withstand high losses, the stronger its combat effectiveness is. It requires iron will and discipline, which is why veterans are so important in a team.

Everyone knows strategy, such as risking one's life, running away, hiding the truth, attacking with fire, besieging a point and attacking reinforcements, and even rushing thousands of miles to attack the enemy, completing miracles in military history and becoming a model for future generations to admire... But do you have confidence in your soldiers to complete these tasks?

Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle! This is not just a lie, it has been tested by countless examples.

The larger the army, the more they fear losing their leaders. The formation is completely lost, and the battle becomes a melee. After days and nights of fighting, there is no winner, and the manpower is wasted.

Of course, what Ming Weiyan and others saw was just a small encounter, and there was no possibility of a melee.

A quarter of an hour later, the Ming Kingdom won a great victory, with a casualty ratio of about five to one. Most of the enemy was killed in the chase, and only a few people ran into the deep mountains and forests and could not be tracked.

This indomitable momentum, even in an encounter, unexpectedly won so quickly, unstoppable. Ming Weiyan watched for a long time without saying anything, and said to Han Weiming beside him: "What do you think of this army?"

Han Weiming looked at the fluttering battle flag, which was rustling, and sighed: "A tiger and wolf army can chase the world."

Zhen Jianwei snorted lightly. After the battle, the team of hundreds of people stopped moving forward and began to argue about their own military exploits on the spot. There were also cases of fighting. "The claws and teeth are very sharp. While hurting others, they are also hurting themselves."

Ming Weiyan glanced at Zhenren Jianwei, thinking.
