Chapter 1789 It’s coercion and inducement
"War is the murderous weapon of a country."
On the distant hilltop, the distance was so far that one could only vaguely see the scene of fighting in front of the gate of Suiyang County, but the shouts of killing were still deafening when they reached here.
Huang Jitian looked at the battle situation in Suiyang County and said to Li Chen beside him: "These soldiers are worthy of respect."
"Fighting is the bounden duty of soldiers and the meaning of their existence. Perhaps not every one of them is loyal and willing to die for the country without asking for anything else. But when they join the battlefield, everyone will be involved.
Killing the enemy is the only hope of survival, and cowardice will only speed up death."
Li Chen said lightly: "It's ridiculous to say that hundreds of thousands of people are fighting each other for nothing more than a fight between the two monarchs."
Huang Jitian shook his head and said in disapproval: "It cannot be said that the struggle between the two monarchs is only superficial. In essence, it is a struggle between the interests of the two countries. If it were not for profit and coveting the vast land and resources of China, why would the Liao army
He went south year after year to harass and attempt to annex the Qin Dynasty? How could the two countries forge such a feud if there was no conflict of interests?"
"I just said casually, you just talk so long, it will make you look stupid." Li Chen laughed.
Huang Jitian's face turned dark and he said angrily: "Whether Suiyang County will win or lose in the battle is still unknown, are you in the mood to make fun of me?"
"Do you think me being so anxious here and constantly scolding Yelu Shenxuan's mother will be of any help to the battlefield?" Li Chen asked back.
Huang Jitian said dumbly: "You are too open-minded."
"Strategically, we despise the enemy, and tactically, we value the enemy. Now on the chessboard, both Yelu Shenxuan and I have placed our chess pieces. What is left is the fight between the chess pieces. The victory or defeat on the battlefield is never directly decided by the commander.
No matter how wise the commander is, he can only increase the probability of victory and reduce the probability of defeat. What truly determines victory or defeat is every soldier on the battlefield, and they have the final say."
Li Chen's eyebrows were all sharp, and he said slowly: "Besides, this battle cannot be won."
Although he actually agreed with Li Chen's views, Huang Jitian still felt nervous. He turned to look at Li Chen and said, "You insist on keeping so many people in Suiyang County even though you know you are losing, then they..."
"If you don't put bait, how can the big fish bite the hook?"
Li Chen sneered and said: "Yelu Shenxuan knew that I had tied a bag and was waiting for him at Wolong Mountain, but he still came, not only because he had no choice but also because he had strong self-confidence. The Liao army was invincible to dozens of people in the world.
His reputation for years gave him enough confidence."
"At this time, I will give him a slap on his pride and make him feel pain for a while. Only in this way can I completely inspire his winning spirit and make him enter Wolong Mountain to eat me regardless of risk.
Only by eating me can he survive."
"I want him to know clearly that he will fight this battle even if he fights it, and he will fight it even if he doesn't!"
"He has no other way to survive except eating me."
Li Chen looked at Huang Jitian and chuckled: "If it were you on the other side, I would definitely remove all the defenses in Suiyang County and find a way to get behind you and surround you so that you have no choice but to fight.
