103 Unusual Stratagems of the Art of War
Lei Luo and Sima Wu couldn't understand where Wú Cháng's confidence came from, even Merlin and Mary couldn't grasp the pulse of Wú Cháng. Looking at Wú Cháng's calm expression, then looking at the chaotic army rushing in like a tide, these Black Horse Warriors could only choose to retreat.
But just as the Black Knight soldiers were retreating with a sense of discontent, a strange atmosphere suddenly spread among the crowd in front of them. In that instant, countless personal terminals rang out, and when the frenzied soldiers saw the numbers, they actually calmed down by 30%.
Not even a minute had passed when a sudden buzz of conversation erupted from the crowd, and the atmosphere was completely different from the fierce shouting just now, as if the entire Hot Sand Harbor's killing intent had suddenly disappeared in an instant.
"Ruike, is that you? I'm your uncle. Stop messing around and get back to the barracks quickly. If not, come hide at my place for a couple of days. Don't fight..."
"Little Song, I'm your aunt. You little rascal, if you dare to go into the city and get into a fight, I'll break those ribs of yours..."
"My son, I'm your mom. Your dad and I are fine, our bodies are fine, we're all safe. You mustn't get into trouble with others, the family is still waiting for you to come back. If you keep doing this, I'll die in front of you..."
……
In an instant, it was a matter of an instant, more than 90% of the students received private calls from their relatives and friends, and they all had the same tone, which was to let this group of soldiers settle down honestly.
Apart from those psychopathic killers, everyone else has a soft spot in their heart, and loved ones and friends are forever the most kind and beautiful representatives in people's hearts.
Wu Chang was extremely perceptive of human nature. He knew that no one could kill in front of their mother or set fires, and he also understood that no one would act wantonly in front of relatives and friends. Human nature can produce vastly different forms of expression in specific environments.
Mr. Ya, aren't you good at stirring up the evil in people's hearts? Well, I'll use the ultimate goodness in human nature to defeat you. Fortunately, the advanced and convenient communication technology in this universe is enough to satisfy the ever-changing needs.
"The people of Hot Sand Harbor, the citizens of Left Bank Paradise Star, just when our home was brutally ravaged, just when we were in misfortune, the despicable hunting human spy has poisoned us..."
"Those disguised spies have already infiltrated among our relatives, in the tens of thousands of military academies and training camps on the Left Bank Paradise Star. Countless hunter spies are inciting our relatives to take to the streets and cause trouble. They use slogans like 'pacifying the country' and 'anti-corruption', but secretly they are slaughtering our fellow villagers..."
"The people of the Left Bank Paradise Star, wake up! This global chaos is a conspiracy by the Hunter's Clan. They disguise themselves as soldiers, harming their own comrades and framing friendly forces. Meanwhile, they also infiltrate among student soldiers, secretly slaughtering security personnel and innocent civilians..."
"Their sole purpose is to blind our eyes with blood and occupy our hearts with hatred... Look, this is the evidence..."
On the screen, rolling back and forth, were Mr. Ya's photos, as well as countless images of him secretly meeting with mysterious people, and even blurry audio commands. Under the accusation of this so-called evidence chain, Mr. Ya had transformed into a demon, a despicable person who sold his soul to the hunters.
He doesn't care if his excuses for not taking responsibility have any loopholes, nor does he care if the fabricated evidence will be exposed. Anyway, I control the Left Bank Building, so whatever I want to report is how it's reported. I'll drown you with my saliva.
"Shameless, you shameless...!" In the space, Mr. Ya was so angry that his mouth was crooked and his eyes were slanted, he wished he could rush into the broadcasting room right now and tear off Wu Chang's shameless face alive.
"Ah……" Mr. Ya had already cried with anger, he knew that the situation was already beyond his control, this is indeed the power of public opinion, foolish and ignorant commoners, they don't have the ability to distinguish right from wrong, as long as someone's voice is loud, they will believe whoever it is.
It's obvious that now the loudest voice is the most variable one.
"What's to be done, sir? The scene has been shot and we've both been caught on camera... now we're also spies...... We're innocent......" On the Honeybee, only Mr. Ya and his two subordinates were left, and the three of them were so grief-stricken that they almost cried out loud.
It's too humiliating, we are clearly the loyal subordinates of the Grand Princess, and in the future, we will make great contributions to the empire. At the very least, we should be governors, so how did we suddenly become spies for the hunters?
This is a stain, even if the Grand Princess helps us clear our name, in the hearts of hundreds of billions of citizens on the Left Bank Paradise Star, this stain cannot be washed away. We can't go door-to-door to distinguish and explain.
The most deadly thing is that the unpredictable has played a card that takes precedence, first imprinting a negative impression on people's minds. Later, if you want to wash it clean, you must pay thousands of times more effort.
Mr. Ya now seems to have all the strength in his body drained away, he is too aware of the hatred of the people of Ma Tou Empire towards the hunting tribe, once involved with this rumor, it will be a poisonous attack on his bones.
Moreover, he believed that the mobilized soldiers would stop in their tracks at the first opportunity, because each and every one of them had endless hatred for the hunting people, and no one wanted to become a tool used by the hunting people.
At this time, the unpredictable speech has not ended yet, he is on the screen trying to mobilize the masses to take to the streets, letting the masses help him quell the rebellion. This cunning guy is simply a devil who manipulates people's hearts.
"The people of Hot Sand, the people of Left Bank Paradise Star, what is scrolling below the screen now is a list of thousands of colleges surrounding the capital, and their current locations are also noted..."
"I, as the Imperial Special Envoy, request that everyone pick up your terminals and call your relatives and friends. Make sure to calm them down. For the sake of the Empire and for the sake of your loved ones, please ask them to leave and return to their barracks or stay in place. Absolutely do not be swayed by the spies' instigations..."
"Citizens who are allowed to, please go out onto the streets in person, go to where your loved ones are, and rescue them. Don't let them fall into the abyss... The rescue operation is now underway..."
He immediately stood up and gave a standard military salute to all the audience in front of the screen.
This time, the Hot Sand Port can be said to have exploded. The network of 30 million people was mobilized, and the 700,000 soldiers outside the city were completely unable to escape. Turning left and right, they could always find their own relatives. In less than ten minutes, 90% of the soldiers received phone calls from their loved ones, pouring a basin of cold water on their heads.
Moreover, the stupid Black Horse Camp suddenly found that in the direction of the city center, countless crowds of people suddenly surged out, shouting their relatives' names and rushing towards the even more stupid rioting soldiers.
"Children, you can't do stupid things......" The white-haired old mother lay among the soldiers, wailing loudly, surrounded by a dozen or so soldiers who were at a loss for what to do.
"You foolish kids, can't let the hunters take advantage of you. Think calmly, from start to finish, isn't there always someone provoking your emotions?" The old men wisely lectured the soldiers, who rolled their eyes in unison around them.
More and more people are gathering, anyway, the thugs in the city have already been intimidated by the Black Horse Camp, as long as the people gather together, there is no danger at all. The streets are gradually filled with real civilians, and the order of the city has begun to recover.
Wu Chang reported the location of all the college soldiers to the people, and those three relatives and six dependents, seven aunts and eight uncles, direct and indirect relatives, all rushed to their destinations. Their attitude was very clear, they must let their loved ones calm down, and also get Wu Chang's reward.
"My fellow citizens, I have just consulted with the Minister of Finance and he has promised that any soldier who stops rioting after being persuaded by relatives and friends will not only be exempt from punishment but also receive 100 gold coins as a reward for loyalty and bravery... Let us thank the generous Minister of Finance..."
This is what's called adding fuel to the fire. The people's emotions have already been stirred up by the uncertainty, and now they can't resist the temptation of money. As soon as they heard that saving their own family members would come with a reward, these common folk went crazy and took to the streets without regard for danger.
At this time, the Minister of Finance had already cried and hit his head against the wall "Woo woo woo...... Despicable! You're too despicable! When did I say that? When did I agree to it? Ahh, do you know what my name is? How can you be so sinister......"
"Seven hundred thousand soldiers, that's seven hundred million in cash... The national treasury will go bankrupt...... Woe is me......"
The Minister of Finance cried very grievously, and outsiders who heard it thought that his wife had been killed by the thugs. However, after crying and scolding, the Minister of Finance did not dare to refuse to pay this money. He was really frightened by this riot, and spending money to avoid disaster is also a way out.
At this time, all the temporary squad leaders of Hei Ma Camp let out a sigh of relief, recalling Wu Chang's calm smile. Apart from admiration, everyone had an inexplicable chill in their hearts.
"What the hell is going on? How did this happen? How did all the killing intent just disappear?" Lu Li threw down the bloody fire axe and squatted there, scratching his head.
Not only Lu Li, but also the five brothers of Bing Long were stunned. They opened their terminals and held an emergency meeting, during which they reached a consensus.
"This unpredictable and unfathomable, this kind of manipulation of people's hearts, apart from the noble alliance, no one understands. The Unpredictable must have a relationship with the noble alliance, and he is an important member who can touch the most core secrets..." As soon as Lelouch finished speaking, the five people all fell silent.
At this time, Wu Chang was slowly and elegantly sipping his coffee, surrounded by a group of busy TV station staff who were sorting out piece after piece of good news from the front lines to announce to the whole planet.
It's finally settled, the situation has stabilized and people's hearts are at ease. The rest of the work can be handled by the security team alone. He let out a sigh of relief as he leaned back in his chair, eyes slightly closed, thinking to himself.
"Mr. Ya, is this all you've got? I don't know about your tricks, but can you see through several layers of mine?"
