NOVEL WEB Chapter 136
Seeing Huangfu Song leading 400,000 troops out of Changsha City in a show-off manner, Wu Si narrowed his eyes.
400,000 troops, what an exaggerated number.
However, after Wu Si carefully compared them, he found that if Huangfu Song led 400,000 troops to fight against his own 80,000 people, and Zhuge Liang was in charge of the central army, then the outcome would not be certain!
After all, in ancient wars, the importance of generals was too heavy, especially in the Three Kingdoms world where there were unparalleled generals, which magnified this point infinitely.
However, the People's Army had already trained a lot of grassroots officers according to Wu Si's arrangement, and with the existence of Zhan Yun, the power that this army that transcended the times could exert was extremely terrifying.
Therefore, when Wu Si led the People's Army and the Han Army led by Huangfu Song to"one, five, three" together, the contrast between the two sides was even more obvious due to the clear distinction and parallel progress. The
People's Army on Wu Si's side all had relaxed expressions, but there was no panic in their steps. Even those Yellow Turban soldiers who temporarily joined the People's Army seemed to be at ease under the leadership of the veterans.
The situation on the Han army side was completely different.
In terms of mental outlook, they had been trapped for a long time, and with the restricted food distribution, they had already become pale and thin, almost the same as those lower-level Yellow Turbans who could not survive.
In addition, Wu Si’s conversation with Huangfu Song a few hours ago, although Huangfu Song intended to cover it up, there were too many soldiers around at the time, how could such a thing really be covered up.
Therefore, many people in the Han army were full of resentment towards Huangfu Song and others.
After all, they were trapped in Changsha because of the incompetence of their generals. How could the daily ration of food fill their stomachs?
However, these generals were able to eat fat and even take out extra food to hold a banquet.
People are like this. When they don’t notice these things, they will only think that this is a normal phenomenon; however, once there is a Wu Si who is like a saint in their hearts, the mood of worrying about inequality instead of scarcity immediately comes up, and the cracks naturally appear quietly.
Especially when Huangfu Song and others made the same wrong decision as the Yellow Turbans, and tried to suppress this information, the rebellious psychology came up, and the Han soldiers could not freely control their hearts.
At this time, after the Han soldiers saw the confident appearance of the People's Army with their own eyes, they could see many strong and fleshy soldiers from 80,000 people from time to time, and they felt even more sour.
Therefore, Huangfu Song's deliberate performance made him look even more embarrassed. The inherent concept of the common people made him make the wrong choice. He did not expect that Wu Si would actually delegate the benefits to ordinary soldiers as the legend said. This is even more saintly than a saint!
Inexplicably, Huangfu Song had a more hostile thought towards Wu Si, because he knew very well that after seeing the treatment of the People's Army, the morale of his soldiers was unstable!
The most important thing is that this kind of thing has seriously hit the interests of him as the person in power!
Looking at Wu Si, who looked relaxed not far away, Huangfu Song made up his mind to destroy Wu Si and the People's Army after solving the Yellow Turbans!
Wu Si, who was riding a tall horse, suddenly revealed a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth. He heard Huangfu Song's heart.
He knew that Huangfu Song was a famous general in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and was also known as a loyal and honest person. He was upright, concerned about the country and the people, and did not participate in the party imprisonment. He was a well-known good man in history.
But as the saying goes, it is better to meet than to be famous.
Wu Si had a deep understanding at this time. Huangfu Song was indeed upright and concerned about the country and the people, but the premise of all this was that the powerful ruling class did not change.
No matter how well Huangfu Song did, it was only to safeguard the interests of his class. His country was the Liu family and the powerful Han; his name was the powerful who controlled more than 90% of the resources in the world.
Therefore, when there was a new existence, especially when those common people who he could not see on weekdays came out to compete for these interests, Huangfu Song was just a ruthless miser for the interests of the powerful.
Wu Si was not surprised at all that Huangfu Song had such an idea. After all, wasn't Zhu Jun the same before?
As a person who was as famous as Huangfu Song at that time, and he was born in a poor family and had experienced some hard times, Zhu Jun still did not take the common people seriously.
The deeper he went into this era, the more Wu Si understood why so many people praised Zhu Yuanzhang, the Hongwu Emperor, in addition to the fact that he restored China, established the Central Plains as a beggar, and ascended the throne, more importantly, Zhu Yuanzhang was the first and only emperor who truly took the common people seriously, kept them in mind, and worked hard for their lives....
Just based on this point alone, the slogan of anti-Qing and restoration of Ming Dynasty has never stopped during the hundreds of years of Qing Dynasty's rule over the Central Plains. (To read the novel of Baoshuang, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
The common people are ignorant, and they basically believe whatever others say.
But at the same time, the common people are extremely shrewd, and they can also distinguish who is really good to them and who is harboring evil intentions.
Wu Si has never regarded himself highly. His buttocks are sitting in the position of the common people. The buttocks determine the position. For the powerful people of this era, Wu Si always looks at them with the worst ideas.
Zhu Jun is like this, and so is Huangfu Song now.
Therefore, Wu Si has never been optimistic about these people because of the historical evaluation of them. On the contrary, it is precisely because they are famous enough and it shows that they are extraordinary in intelligence that Wu Si should be more vigilant against them.
In this way, with both sides harboring their own ghosts, the two armies totaled 480,000, and they claimed to the outside world that the 500,000-strong army encountered the first Yellow Turban army.
Huangfu Song glanced at Wu Si from a distance. When he saw that the other party was about to issue an order to attack, he did not hesitate to command the army to charge towards the Yellow Turbans in front.
The charge of 400,000 troops is very terrifying. Generally speaking, for such a large army battle, multi-directional deployment is required to make the best arrangement.
But Huangfu Song was eager to attack, and wanted to limit Wu Si's reputation and the credit of the people's army, so he ordered the soldiers to charge directly in a hurry.
Under such an order, although the Yellow Turbans suffered heavy casualties due to this wave of locusts, the casualties of the Han army were not low, and most of them were crushed and trampled to death by teammates during the charge. The soldiers who really died because of the enemy's attack were less than 30% of the dead soldiers!
Although it cost a great price, Huangfu Song was relieved because he felt that doing so would inevitably suppress Wu Si's strength..
