Wanli 1592

Chapter 529 Bewitching people
Li Chengliang and Li Rusong may have never deeply studied the subject of how to motivate people and morale. They may use it unconsciously, but they have not studied it deeply, and they do not understand the root cause and specific method of doing so. Of course, They didn't need to do this when they led the Liaodong iron cavalry to kill the Quartet.

But when their subordinates are replaced by such a weak brigade with no fighting spirit, when their subordinates are no longer the powerful Liaodong iron cavalry, not even training soldiers, but a group of people who will run away at any time and take the life of the general When they don't care about the soldiers, they are in danger.

Just like when Qi Jiguang was almost killed by the old soldiers.

The path they chose was not the path that Xiao Ruxun chose now, but to choose another source of high-quality soldiers, start training from scratch, focus their own spirit and bravery on the soul of the new army, and make this army as reliable as a general's clone .

And under the premise that there is not enough time now, another method must be used.

To put it nicely is called motivating the soldiers, but to put it badly is called demagogy.

The two are only in one thought, but the feeling of saying it and using it is very different.

Some people can use it, but they use it unconsciously, and finally even believe it themselves, while some people use it deliberately, purposefully and consciously, and they are still awake and not fanatical.

I remember that Chen Jinnan once told Wei Xiaobao that they wanted to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and revive the Ming Dynasty, but the smart scholars had been bought by the Qing government to work for the Qing government. They were their enemies, and no scholars were willing to rebel with them. And the second best thing is to use stupid people.

How to use a stupid person?

To put it simply, it is to confuse them, confuse them, hypnotize them in the form of religion, let them agree from the bottom of their hearts that what they do is just, meaningful, and can realize the value of life, so they will Aoao yelling and dedicating his life to do things that are terribly scary in the eyes of normal people.

For stupid people with religious beliefs, it is necessary to hypnotize them with doctrines and other forms to make them believe that this is God's will, and the fear of death is covered by religious devotion, so there are those religious troops with extremely terrible combat effectiveness.

For stupid people who have no religious beliefs and cannot have religious beliefs in a short period of time, they can only use money, women, hypnotize them with bright prospects and impassioned principles, and make them believe in what they want in a short period of time. Everything you do will be able to get a lot of things and realize your own life value.

Religious means are obviously more reliable than money incentives.

Therefore, in ancient China, there were many rebellious incidents in the cloak of religion. The Yellow Turban Rebellion was farther away, and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was closer. Those who sacrificed their lives to achieve the political and economic goals of the rulers.

Those people are all stupid, illiterate and uneducated, and logically speaking, they are also cowardly people who allow the Qing government to oppress them, but why can they form a pattern of confrontation with the Qing government from north to south?
It's very simple, they have been brainwashed, and their fear of death and power has been covered by religious beliefs. They have been successfully brainwashed and become religious fighters who are not afraid of death at all. Such people still exist even in modern times, threatening It affects the life and safety of normal people, but from their own point of view, this is God's will.

But where is there a god in this world?
The demagogic nature of China's native religions has been strictly guarded against by the rulers since the Yellow Turban Uprising, and gradually lost its effectiveness.

On the other hand, Chinese Buddhism is not born with rebellious genes, and it is also strictly controlled by the government.

The Chinese government has been very vigilant against religion since the Han Dynasty, which in a sense prevented the possibility of Chinese people being bewitched by religion to rebel.

As for the White Lotus Sect and the Worship of God Sect, they are both foreign religions. They were originally used by foreign countries to rule the people conveniently. As a result, who would have expected that their government would not be effective, and they would be backlashed by religion, and the legacy remains to this day.

Xiao Ruxun couldn't use religious forms to brainwash those soldiers in such a short period of time, so he could only use women, money, cattle and sheep, hatred and achievements to hypnotize them for a short period of time, so that they have strong combat effectiveness in a short period of time. And Xiao Ruxun himself is very sober thinking about the possibility of sealing himself as a wolf Juxue Le Shi Yanran.

Looking at the fanatical soldiers, Xiao Ruxun knew that this battle would definitely be victorious, and his military goal was not limited to expulsion, he wanted to do everything.

But Li Chengliang and Li Rusong were very surprised after seeing such a scene. They never thought of rescuing these seemingly hopeless guys, because they are incurable and can only be threatened with death. What method did Xiao Ruxun use to make them scream?
Li Rusong was surprised, but Li Chengliang thought of something deeper, and the look in Xiao Ruxun's eyes became more and more strange.

This is no longer within the scope of the military, this is clearly a demagogic ability that makes the ruler extremely afraid!
Li Chengliang asked himself that he couldn't do this. Although he knew it well and wanted to use it sometimes, he absolutely couldn't let these cowards be bewitched to the point of losing their judgment.

Xiao Jixin! !

Li Chengliang looked at the general standing on the top of the city and pointed his sword at the sky, and suddenly felt deep fear.

This man is really terrible, terrible.

In fact, this kind of thing is already commonplace for Xiao Ruxun, and it is not surprising at all.

He needs to lead the surviving people to survive in the general environment of the last days. It is not enough to rely solely on personal charm and sufficient military strength. Under the oppression of the general environment, people's will to survive is sometimes not so strong, especially It is in the last days where the future and hope cannot be seen.

Where is the way out?Where is hope?
Is it possible to return to the civilized world of the past?
Does our fight make sense?Can we beat the virus?
This is a question that no one can answer. Of course Xiao Ruxun doesn't know, but he can't say that he doesn't know, and he can't even answer this question.

He can only hypnotize those survivors in various ways, and even use religious forms to give them the belief in survival. The supporters and survivors continue to fight and continue to fight to regain the civilized world, otherwise he can only face the increasing number of people. The list of suicides in China is helplessly decadent.

As far as he himself is concerned, he still clearly realizes that everything he has done may just be a futile struggle, just a futile effort to linger on the remaining civilization, waiting to be completely swallowed up by the virus at some point, until you become one of them.

His despair runs deeper than anyone else's because he cannot hypnotize himself.
