After leaving Kongcheng and returning to Shengyuan, Fang Yun sent a letter to his good friend Kong Delun, chatting about the New Year's atmosphere in Kongcheng. He mentioned the soldiers riding in the post station carriage, and casually said that the propaganda methods of "Wen Bao" were too biased. They should not always publicize how great, passionate and how they sacrificed the soldiers were, but should publicize from multiple angles.
After receiving the letter from Fang Yun, Kong Delun immediately understood Fang Yun's intention, so he personally contacted the person in the Kong family who was responsible for providing current affairs materials for Shengyuan's "Wen Bao", and asked him to provide what happened at Kongcheng Post Station today to "Wen Bao" and make comments according to Fang Yun's intention.
The first day of the Lunar New Year is not only the day for celebrating the New Year, but also the day when the first issue of "The Holy Way" and "Wen Bao" are published every year.
After chatting with Comte, Fang Yun began to read "The Way of the Holy One".
Ao Huang and Nu Nu were lying on another table, flipping through the "Wen Bao".
A dragon and a fox always quarrel with each other for no reason.
“Oh…”
"It's not that I see fast, it's that you see slow!"
“Oh…”
"Okay, stop screaming every time you see Fang Yun up there. Isn't it enough to watch him all day long?"
"Wait a minute, I want to read it carefully, don't just turn the page without thinking..."
“Oh…”
Fang Yun glanced at the two of them, smiled, and continued to look through his "Holy Way".
This latest issue of "The Holy Way" contains a statement from the Editorial Board that, in view of the obvious progress made by the various holy ways of the human race in the past two years, the number of pages in "The Holy Way" will be increased by 50%.
Fang Yun was extremely happy when he saw the news. This was not simply "obvious progress", but a sign of a major explosion of the hundreds of human families.
Fang Yun was reading, the inkstone turtle was slowly crawling around on the desk, and the ink girl was hiding in the ink, usually not showing up, unless she was teased by Nunu.
Mist butterflies were dancing in the air, small meteors were spinning in the sky, and the study was peaceful.
"The Holy Way" is not an ordinary publication. Occasionally, great scholars publish articles, and the content is very obscure and difficult to understand. Sometimes, Fang Yun reads it over and over again and still can't understand it. He puts it aside for the time being, marks it, and reads it again after a while, and then he can gradually understand it.
After reading this issue of "The Holy Way", Fang Yun was inspired to look for the "The Holy Way" from June three years ago in the Swallowed Sea Shell, and found a marked article by the university scholar. He read it repeatedly and quickly understood the essence of it. He was overjoyed.
This issue of "The Holy Way" records three war poems, "Night Horse in the Desert", "Moon Blade in the Sky" and "Pouring Loulan", and is commented on by a great scholar himself, praising "Pouring Loulan" and explaining that "Yumen Pass" and "Pouring Loulan" can form a connected poem, which is a very rare connected poem handed down from generation to generation by the human race and is of great use.
After reading "The Holy Way", Fang Yun took the "Literary Newspaper" and quickly browsed it to grasp the information of Shengyuan Continent in recent days.
The Literary Newspaper recorded in great detail some of the events that took place in the Council Hall, mainly focusing on the Blood Mang Realm, and several articles criticized the Lei Family in extremely harsh terms.
Fang Yun went to the discussion board and found that the discussion board on the first day of the Lunar New Year was particularly lively. Often, the first sentence was about wishing a happy new year, and the next sentence was about arguing with each other about issues such as the Lei family and the Xuemang Realm, which was full of tension.
On the night of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Fang Yun went into the study alone and began to write the fourth strategy of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, "Waiting for the Enemy to Tire". As before, when the military strategy was almost completed, the Talented Martial Arts was formed. Fang Yun was included in the world of Talented Martial Arts and led the troops into battle.
The core of waiting for the enemy to tire out is to conserve your energy, tire the enemy out and wait for the opportunity. Any mistake will lead to a complete failure.
A classic example of taking advantage of rest to wait for the enemy to tire themselves out is Cao Gui’s “make the first attack with great force, the second with weakening, and the third with exhaustion”. However, this is not to make the enemy physically tired, but to make the enemy mentally tired. Great generals such as Wang Jian and Li Mu have used this strategy, and there are many examples in history.
In this talent show, both sides were equally strong, and the enemy had abundant food and grass, so both sides were in a state of "ease".
Before the first battle, Fang Yun also tried Cao Gui's methods, but they didn't work at all, so he immediately withdrew his troops, realizing that this talent show was extremely difficult. At the same time, Fang Yun also realized that as the human race continued to grow, the essence of those strategies was still there, but many of the ways of using them were outdated and had to keep up with the times.
After careful consideration, Fang Yun set the basic policy.
The enemy is at ease, tire them out!
Therefore, Fang Yun began to send small units to harass the enemy using various methods and never engage in direct combat. His own side took turns harassing and resting, so the impact was minimal.
In terms of "reserving one's energy" and "tiring out the enemy", Fang Yun did an excellent job. However, he was ultimately a little short of waiting for the right opportunity, and thus failed in his first talent show.
However, the Talent and Martial Arts Show was decided three times. After Fang Yun summarized his experience, he entered the show again. With the experience of the previous failure, he did better in every aspect this time. In the end, he won the battle with a great advantage, successfully mastered new tactics, and obtained the blessing of the Holy Way of Wisdom.
Fang Yun opened the military book and felt the power of waiting for the enemy to tire out. He didn't have much hope for the actual effect of this military strategy. After all, both the name and the way of using it were very ordinary. But he was pleasantly surprised after reading it.
To a certain extent, the practicality of the military strategy of waiting for the enemy to tire out exceeds 99% of the military strategies in most cases!
This military tactic allows your soldiers to recover their physical strength, injuries and talents at three times the speed after they stop fighting!
The basic recovery speed of physical strength, injuries and talents is very slow. Even if the speed is increased by three times, it is not very fast. It is not very useful in a sudden battle or a life-and-death battle. But the problem is that once a protracted battle occurs, our army can rotate and continuously use this military method, which is at least equivalent to doubling the manpower!
This military tactic is extremely useful, especially now that the monsters are attacking and humans are defending. The effect of this military tactic is far superior to any power that Fang Yun possesses.
Fang Yun originally wanted to wait until the Thirty-Six Strategies were perfected and formed into a complete military book, and then pass it on to the human race. But now, the human race urgently needs this military strategy, so Fang Yun immediately changed his original intention and sent the military strategy of "waiting for the enemy to tire out" to the War Hall and mailed it to the Grand Marshal's Office of Jing State.
Just a quarter of an hour later, all the scholars who had majored in military science and those above the Jinshi level received a letter from the War Hall, which contained the "Awaiting the Enemy's Tiredness" strategy, and an unquestionable order that from now on, everyone should give up studying other strategies and master this one first.
Other scholars may not know the value of something, but the military are experts and know the ins and outs of it.
Afterwards, a large number of military scholars sent letters to express their gratitude to Fang Yun.
If one can master this strategy of waiting for the enemy to tire themselves out, the speed at which soldiers' physical strength, injuries and talents recover can be tripled. If one practices it to a high level, or if one's military skills are at a very high level, the effect can be as high as six times!
This is a pretty scary statistic.
Not only that, when practiced to a high level, this military technique can also be used against the enemy, making the monsters even more tired, and the consumption of blood and physical strength increases exponentially, which is simply a nightmare curse.
One increases and the other decreases, the gap is like a world of difference.
Once we have mastered the art of waiting for the enemy to tire themselves out to a very high level, humans will no longer be at a disadvantage when faced with equal military strength!
The discussion board on the third day of the Lunar New Year exploded again, with countless military experts discussing this military strategy on it.
"This is the military strategy of the saints!"
"Fang Yun may not be the wisest military strategist, but his tactics are comparable to those of a semi-saint!"
"Fang Xusheng made up for the last shortcoming of the human race's soldiers!"
