Chapter 147: Use people's hearts as chess pieces and conquer the world! (Subscribe)
As the news of the fall of Leling City spread, the whole world was shocked.

Everyone knew that Lin Zhongyun was now unstoppable, but no one expected his offensive to be so fierce and Leling City to be defeated so thoroughly.

The people of Leling County and other neighboring cities were already in a state of panic and the military morale was low.

The news of the rebel attack was no longer a secret, and the people in the city were even more worried and panic-stricken.

"What should we do now? I'm afraid that the rebel will attack here soon." Someone said with a bleak and worried look on his face.

"That's right. Even the city of Leling can't withstand the offensive of the rebels, let alone us. In my opinion, Lin Zhongyun's next move will be us." Another person said immediately.

"Five thousand troops captured a vital town with twenty thousand defenders, and those soldiers were tired. How did they win?" Faced with the invincible edge of Lin Zhongyun and the rebel army, many people looked melancholy and worried.

Originally, they thought that no matter how invincible Lin Zhongyun was, Leling City should be able to hold out for a few days, so they wanted to see the results before making a decision.

But now the results show that they don't have much time left.

Today, Lin Zhongyun's influence is no longer comparable to what it was before. Whether it is the name of an immortal who has descended to the earth or the name of the King of War, his reputation has long spread throughout the world, and his influence is unmatched.

Now, I'm afraid the imperial court is also afraid of Lin Zhongyun. Otherwise, according to the imperial court's past style, how could it allow Yangzhou to make any mistakes?

"Hey, I'm afraid the world is going to change, and troubled times are coming!!!"

"In this situation, we can only hope that the imperial court can send reinforcements, otherwise we will be in danger..."

However, someone in the crowd sneered and said disdainfully: "The imperial court? You still count on the imperial court? How ridiculous!"

"Where was the imperial court during the natural disaster? Where was the imperial court during the famine? The imperial court no longer cares about our lives, so you still think they will send reinforcements?"

The man spoke with a gloomy face, his tone full of dissatisfaction with the court.

"That's right. The current imperial court is incompetent and oppresses us. How could they care about our lives?"

"After a long period of unity, the world will eventually divide; after a long period of division, the world will eventually unite. It is time for the world to change..."

More and more people stood up and spoke out, venting all the dissatisfaction that had been suppressed in their hearts for a long time.

Today, although the Daqian Dynasty still has its foundation, it has already been on the decline and is on the verge of collapse. It will not be able to hold on for much longer.

In the past, they would certainly not dare to say these things in front of these people, but now the imperial court is busy with its own affairs, so how can it care about them?

"Hey, I heard that the treatment in the rebel army is very good. Three meals a day is the minimum."

"That's right. I also heard that children used to go to private schools for free and didn't have to do farm work..."

"Really? This is really great..."

"Yes, it is said that the people of Leling City had long been fed up with the local garrison commander, and finally all of them defected, which is why Leling City was captured so quickly by the rebel army."

"My distant relatives are in Leling City. They are living a much better life than us..."

……

Before, the entire Jialing County was trying its best to block the news about the rebel army, but now that the rebel army is at the gates of the city, some things cannot be blocked no matter what.

These little things are subtly changing the attitude of the people towards the rebel army and rallying people's hearts for Lin Zhongyun.

This is also the reason why the imperial court was very secretive about Lin Zhongyun.

After all, human hearts are like water. How could they possibly fully control the thoughts of the countless people in this world of panic?
At this time, in Leling City.

The rebels are helping the people in the city to rebuild their damaged houses, and everyone's basic living needs are being met as soon as possible.

For those who surrendered voluntarily, Lin Zhongyun did not kill them all, but gave them two choices: one was to join the rebel army, and the other was to stay here and live.

For a time, Leling City no longer had the post-war depression, but was instead crowded with people and bustling with activity, giving the impression of a revival of all things.

Lin Zhongyun watched all this with satisfaction. This was exactly the result he wanted.

Thinking of this, he selected a few photos of the reconstruction of Leling City and the expansion of the Beiwei Army and uploaded them to Douyin, with the caption:
"The rebel army has already captured two cities, and the imperial reinforcements are heading towards Jialing County. Is there any way to speed up the rebel army's siege?"

In the past few days, the rebel army has captured two more cities, and its speed is not slow.

But Lin Zhongyun was still somewhat dissatisfied. After all, blitzkrieg was all about speed, and now that winter was approaching, Lin Zhongyun, as the commander of the three armies, had to consider this matter.

The video uploaded immediately.

Almost instantly, there were thousands of comments.

The comment section was almost buzzing with all kinds of comments.

"No way, buddy, are you serious?"

"Don't TV dramas always show that attacking a city is difficult? Why does it feel different when it comes to you?"

"Leling City has been captured. What is the next target? Jialing County, Jialing County, Jialing County..." Some netizens excitedly listed the next possible targets.

"The person above is right. It is not impossible for Jialing County to take over the entire Yangzhou in one fell swoop!"

"No, are the two of you really stupid? Don't you see what season it is? Even if the rebels are very strong, can they withstand the ice and snow? Are we going to repeat the Battle of Stalingrad?"

"That's right. In my opinion, the host has already established a firm foothold. With winter approaching, the imperial court will not make any major moves. We should rest and recuperate."

……

The discussion in the comment section is in full swing, with various opinions intertwined, and the original "999+" has turned into a series of ellipsis.

Also because of this video, Lin Zhongyun’s number of fans increased a lot.

at the same time.

[Shangguan Wolong: Expanding the rebel army is indeed a good decision, but now that the imperial court's reinforcements are approaching, this is not a solution.]

[There are turtles everywhere and I have the biggest head: That’s right, the quality of soldiers is more important than the quantity. This time we will definitely gain a lot of troops by conquering Leling City. The most important thing is to transform these people into top combat forces. ]

[Cat Hair Processing Artist: But you all forgot one thing. The imperial court is currently mobilizing troops and I believe they will arrive in Yangzhou soon.]

[Pidan solo porridge: If you hadn't mentioned this, I would have almost forgotten it, but the court has already reacted. I'm afraid that blitzkrieg is no longer effective. In addition, winter is approaching, and the rebels' equipment is in urgent need of replenishment.

It is not wise to confront the imperial court head-on at this time. 】

[Cat hair treatment artist: Do you mean to stop and rest? ]

[Shangguan Wolong: We can’t do this. We can’t stop attacking the city at this time. Otherwise, the pressure on the court will be too great! ]

[Pidan Solo Congee: I know you're worried, but winter is approaching. If we can't make much progress, we might be trapped in Jialing County when winter comes. It will be dangerous if the court reacts by then.]

[Shangguan Wolong: I have a plan that can defeat the enemy without deploying it, and this plan has already been implemented in Leling City, so there will be no surprises.]

[There are turtles all over the floor, but I have the biggest head:??? What should I do? 】

[Shangguan Wolong: Using people’s hearts as chess pieces, I still believe that if you want to rule the world, you can never ignore people’s hearts! ]…

Shangguan Wolong's words seemed to open up a new world for everyone in the group and immediately sparked heated discussions.

At the same time, Yu Ping was looking at the messages in the group, thinking hard.

"hiss!"

After seeing Shangguan Wolong's comments that day, I couldn't help but gasp.

In fact, Shangguan Wolong’s proposal was not a brilliant strategy. It was just a common strategy to attack people’s minds.

However, no matter how inferior a strategy is, it can be a good strategy as long as it is used at the right time and in the right place.

And now is the perfect time.

Water can carry a boat but can also capsize it. Human hearts are the most unpredictable. However, in these troubled times, human hearts are also the easiest to guess.

The antonym of devastating suffering is living and working in peace and contentment.

Throughout history, countless uprisings were caused by the common people being unable to survive and being forced to unite and resist.

However, once they are given enough food and water to keep them well fed and well watered, this part of the force will quickly fall apart from within.

Although the current imperial court is far from falling apart, the people under it have long been miserable and resentful.

The reason why it was not obvious before was that they dared to be angry but not to speak out, and no one led them to stand up and resist the court.

But now we have this person, that is Lin Zhongyun. I am afraid that the lower-class people are looking forward to the arrival of the rebel army.

Moreover, the benefits of doing so are extremely obvious. Many cities were captured in a short period of time without losing too much manpower of the rebel army.

Those who are convinced by the rebels will join them in turn, which will expand their fighting power.

What's more important is that doing so will invisibly weaken the foundation of the imperial court, which can be said to have many benefits.

He thought about it and there was no better way.

Thinking of this, Yu Ping's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately picked up his phone to reply.

【Lin Daiyu angrily kills Maitreya Buddha: Brothers, I understand!! I have an idea! Although it is a bit risky, if this plan succeeds, it will definitely be a great help in the future! 】

[Shangguan Wolong:? Brother Nuzhan also thought of this? ]

[There are turtles all over the floor, but my head is the biggest: ??? ? ]

[Lin Daiyu angrily kills Maitreya Buddha: I thought of it, I thought of it, this plan is definitely worth a try in my opinion, I will comment first! I must give it a try anyway! ]

【.】

There was a discussion in the entire group.

At the same time, Lin Zhongyun also saw the content in the comment section.

Seeing the "Feng Chu" comment suddenly pop up, he was stunned for a moment.

"Take people's hearts as your sons?" Lin Zhongyun frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

Under the effect of the clear thinking skill, Lin Zhongyun's thoughts were extremely clear at this time.

Human heart, human heart,
As the saying goes, he who wins the hearts of the people wins the world.

Lin Zhongyun had already understood this principle.

From the beginning of the uprising to now, without the support of the people, he would never have made it this far.

Not to mention far away.

Let’s just talk about the battle of Leling City.

If the people in the city had not immediately defected, he would have had to spend some effort to capture Leling City.

Just as the group members analyzed before, he now has only one option, which is to continue to capture cities and put enough pressure on the court.

Otherwise, by the time Chu Yun reacts and is attacked from both sides, his situation will be in danger.

And now that winter is approaching, he can certainly adopt the strategy of strong attack on other cities as before. The bravery and fighting ability of the rebels make him believe that the final result will be successful.

However, the time consumed was too slow after all, and what was worse was that there was a shortage of food and fodder, which gave the court an opportunity to take advantage.

This was definitely a situation he didn't want to see.

nowadays,
The rebel army's unparalleled bravery is universally recognized and invincible, and there is no need for a major war to prove it.

If he still relies on a violent attack now, it will only be one more city for him and the entire rebel army, and it will not be of any substantial help.

If the speed cannot be increased to the maximum and a sufficient threat cannot be posed to the imperial court, Chu Yun will definitely not withdraw his troops from Anshan County.

In that case, wouldn't he just be marking time?
So he had to find a more efficient way to save time and avoid being trapped in winter!
And the human heart is the most beneficial object for him at present.

Those who are righteous will have many supporters, while those who are unrighteous will have few supporters!
Only by conquering a city and making the people of that city sincerely submit to him can he truly capture the city.

This time, Leling City is a perfect opportunity for him. Now he just needs to promote benevolence and kindness and gather the hearts of the people.

The people in other cities are in a state of panic. As long as we use kind inducements to them, they will surely be convinced.

What's more, the defenders of Leling City already accounted for the vast majority of the troops in the entire Leling County. There were only a very small number of officers and soldiers guarding other cities, and most of them were civilians who were brought up by the signs of the coming of the world.

They were already resentful, and now they were sent to death by the signs of the coming of the world.

Deep down, they don't want to fight. As long as they are given enough food, they will surrender.

As long as he uses the right means, if he sends troops to attack other cities at this time, he may be able to defeat the enemy without fighting and capture them without bloodshed.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhongyun's eyes became extremely bright.

An increasingly clear method emerged in his mind: whoever wins the hearts of the people will win the world.

This time, Lin Zhongyun not only wanted to take over the entire Leling County without bloodshed, but also wanted to use this opportunity to lay a solid foundation for completely controlling the entire Yangzhou in the future.

Yangzhou is the Daqian arsenal, the resources contained therein are unimaginable, and can completely solve the current weapon disadvantage of the rebel army!

As long as he holds Yangzhou firmly in his hands, he can then unite with Cangzhou and Yuzhou.

One side controls the food, one side controls the money, and one side controls the soldiers!
Lin Zhongyun no longer needs to worry about anything!

Thinking of this, Lin Zhongyun immediately made a decision in his heart, and his eyes became more determined at this moment!

This time, Lin Zhongyun is going to use people's hearts as chess pieces to conquer the world! .
Ps: I beg for a monthly ticket! I beg you brothers to support me! I beg you!!!
