Sixty-five, Dragon Crazy Mystery Lock (Part 1)
The situation faced by military commanders on the battlefield is like walking on the rugged path in the dark, with cliffs on both sides, and stray bullets and arrows constantly shooting in front and behind. Even the companions walking side by side, they may not be sure to stab you at any time.
Now, Lieutenant General Daniel, and even the roundabout army under his command, which seemed to be in full swing and victorious, are actually facing such a bad situation.
As the saying goes, hiring people without doubt, skepticism is the supreme method of organizational management. But in reality, people's hearts are separated from each other, who knows whether you are reliable or not? Therefore, in actual work, you can only be suspicious of people and skepticism, and trust and supervision are both right. As for whether it will undermine employees' enthusiasm... it's up to one's opinion.
Especially for those leaders who have taken office through unconventional channels, since they have not had time to establish a team of trustworthy people, their suspicion and guard against their unfamiliar subordinates are often more serious, even to the point where they are full of troops.
In the planning and decision-making of this war, in order to prevent possible mutinies and rebellions, Queen Akdina not only let Princess Alanita, the heir to the throne, take the nominal commander, but also carefully selected a group of enemies who dislike each other, forming a new and mutually checks and balances leadership team, and handing them over to a huge army that would never lose no matter how you look at it, thinking that you would be worry-free.
Unfortunately, Her Majesty the Queen really lacked the wisdom to know people. She was surrounded by groups of candids, ambitious people and flatterers in the palace. So after a political struggle and compromise, she finally picked up a group of so-called "three traitors and four fools" to take on the heavy responsibility of the army and local leadership. These guys not only had their own limited level or were not as good as their professionalism, but also did not have the noble style of being insured to serve the country, and almost all their energy was spent on sabotage. Princess Alanita, the only one who could subdue them, stayed in the "far-leading" city of Tikal, far away from the front line. Without anyone to control, these guys became more and more serious. Whatever preservation of their strength and obedience were just children's departments, and even people dared to intercept each other's military supplies and supplies. There was nothing that could be done, only unexpected.
For example, this time, the division of troops was detoured. According to the plan before the operation, Daniel led the team to destroy the enemy's hinterland, while Marshal Cruze led the main force to launch a continuous attack on Cusco City, dragging the enemy's elite. He bought time for Daniel's plunder and sabotage operation. Finally, the two sides cooperated with the attack and completely eliminated the Inca military force.
However, Daniel was absolutely sure that at the moment of getting the news, Cruze would never help him restrain the Inca army in Cusco. Instead, he would stop, let Tkumse take his men and leave safely, and then easily enter the Inca capital. As for his own orphans, he should also be consumed in his eyes. He is afraid that after he is almost wiped out by the red-eyed Incas, Marshal Cruze would slowly come to "rescue the friendly army" and pick all the fruits of victory... It is also unlucky to have such a small-minded mean boss.
Therefore, Daniel must rely on himself, not only to conquer cities and plunder land independently, but also to fight against Tkumse's elite Inca main force and the Naseril Empire reinforcements that were rushing to come... Of course, he still didn't know the arrival of this group of old opponents at this moment. During this period, there was basically no need to rely on the support and support of his main force...
Such a leadership team that is centrifugal and strange, is really a great blessing for the Incas. It is also a great misfortune for the land elves kingdom in the storm.
However, this cannot be entirely blamed on the Elf Queen's random selection of generals. Queen Akdina herself came to power after fighting against the Chevrolet Church through a mutiny. She has been in charge of national affairs for less than a year and is absolutely very sensitive to the decline of military power. This Western Expedition Army with a total strength of more than 500,000 was almost all the troops of the whole country. Her Majesty was naturally very afraid that the generals who mastered the army would learn advanced experience from her. Then she would make a "glorious revolution". Especially when she just turned against her, cleaned up her ex-allies, and offended a large group of elves.
To be honest, at present, no one of the leaders of the world and even officials with slightly higher status is not cursed and hated by a large group of gods. For example, Neseril's MPs were almost all elected and were automatically cursed by Ms. Night, the goddess of disease, the god of lies, the gods of elves, and the gods believed in by the opposition parties in China. If it were put hundreds of years ago, this newly released MP may have held a funeral at the same time as the elected place.
However, since the large-scale and intense smear between the gods, the social image of the gods has been completely corrupted, from an omniscient and omnipotent supreme man to a showman who set off firecrackers all day long, and his pious belief has also become a pure exchange of interests. Gods have become a habit of talking nonsense all day long. The chances of this curse taking effect are naturally falling like junk stocks. It can cause the cursed guy to catch a cold several times. It is already amazing---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is true that people are invincible when they are inferior. This is true, but this does not mean that shamelessness does not require a price to pay. If you do not abide by the rules of others, then you don’t have to expect others to abide by the rules of you. If you don’t speak trust with your subordinates, then don’t blame your subordinates for colluding with external thieves. A single individual may be able to act with a shameless and untrustworthy person, but if an organization is shameless and untrustworthy, the organization will soon collapse-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If a king treats his ministers as his hands and feet, then his ministers regard him as his heart; if a king treats his ministers as dogs and horses, then his ministers regard him as his countrymen; if a king treats his ministers as earth, then his ministers regard him as enemies. If he destroys his own foundation, there is no future to speak of.
However, if there is a bad example of such a superior and not being punished for a long time, others will inevitably follow the trend in order not to let themselves suffer losses, which will eventually lead to the collapse of their faith. The whole situation is like a deck of dominoes. As long as you push down the first card in the ground, the entire huge system of god beliefs will all fall down - of course, it is extremely difficult to knock down or even just contact the first card. But as long as you take this most difficult first step, the rest of your work will come naturally. Magic goddess Mistera and her allies finally successfully knocked down the first card through long-term smearing propaganda.
Therefore, no effort was needed, the old-fashioned faith relationship established by dignity, prestige and mystery consciously and voluntarily walked into the garbage dump. Countless gods who were invincible on the battlefield inexplicably lost their believers and fell under this hidden soft knife.
Competition for faith is like a deck of dominoes. As long as one of the most critical cards is knocked down, it will be unstoppable next, and the outcome of the war is the same. The process of winning and losing is the most difficult one is before gaining power. Once you gain power, almost no one can stop it.
In this one-to-one full-scale war, although the war machine of the Elf Army was seriously corrupt, it was still extremely huge. It was not something that Tecumse's backward army could compete alone. After more than half a year of full-scale counterattack, the Incas lost a large area of land, and their living power had been greatly consumed. However, the military strength of Tecumse's hands was still not weak. If they cooperated with the extremely favorable terrain, although they were unable to make progress, if they just protected themselves, they still had great hope of success.
In order to eliminate the roots, Daniel led his army to risk over the mountains and ridges, break into the hinterland of the plateau, and appeared in a place that the enemy did not expect. In this way, the Elf Army took the lead in tactics after gaining strategic advantages. The next step is how to destroy the enemy's confidence in resistance.
Therefore, the seemingly stalemate situation is like a domino. As long as the card of the Temple of Time is pushed down, the 30 million Incas will lose their spiritual sustenance, and at least a considerable part of them will become a piece of loose sand again--even the gods give up. What else can mortals fight for?
In this way, all the state machines that Tecumse has worked hard to fall down. The advantages of the elf army and local areas will be transformed into victory. Even if Tecumse can lead his subordinates to win a few more battles, he will be unable to make up for the world--the people's hearts are already in chaos, the geographical advantage has been lost, and logistics supply will be nowhere to raise. Unless the opponent intends to support the enemy, he will have no chance of life. In any case, as long as the Temple of Time changes hands, the glory of victory will be the treasure of the elf army.
However, it is hard to say who will fall into the specific hand of this glory.
Neither Lieutenant General Daniel or Admiral Paris were willing to use their sacrifices and dedication to make Marshal Cruze hold the medal. They did not understand that as long as they conquer the Temple of Time and destroy the Incas' source of faith, even if they were later defeated by Tecumse, they would not harm the overall victory. However, when it came to the specific battle, they were all looking forward and preserved their strength, and were unwilling to make wedding dresses for others.
Of course, the Temple of Time still needs to be taken down. Daniel has his own countermeasures on how to achieve this goal.
In the strong wind with the smoke and bloody smell, Lieutenant General Daniel, wearing a light green military uniform, stood by the lake, smiling and seeing the string of small black dots where the water and sky meet, gradually showing outlines in the steaming water vapor.
At first, they looked like migrating flocks of birds, but not long after, the birds became behemoths.
They stretched out their huge wings and glided against the water, making several loud hissings that resounded through the sky from time to time. Through the magical telescope with Hawkeye art, Daniel could clearly see that the riders in light golden breastplates and silver military uniforms were waving to him.
He let out a long breath, then shouted orders to his subordinates at the top of his lungs.
