Chapter 249 The gap is clear at a glance
"The battle in the front camp has already started. It will probably be over in an hour or two. Jiang Boyue is truly a fierce general." Xun Yu's face was full of admiration.
Jiang Wei used the front camp as bait to lure the Dashun troops into the camp, and then took advantage of the situation to disperse the Dashun's front line in one wave, and then held on to Dashun. According to Xun Yu's estimation, this wave would directly cripple the opponent's main force, and they might not even need to join forces with Zhu Jun to defeat Dashun.
"One or two hours!" Chen Xi looked at the moon in the sky with sleepy eyes. He was a sleepy person and staying up late would kill him.
"I'm so sleepy, let's just take them away!" Chen Xi mobilized his mental strength in a daze. The originally cloudless weather became overcast, and the originally bright moonlight was directly covered by the clouds. It was difficult to distinguish the traces in the middle of the night, not to mention that there was an essential gap between the two sides.
Xun Yu looked at the sleeping Chen Xi and couldn't help but sigh.
"Is this guy really a human?" Xun Yue's eyes almost fell out, Chen Qun was completely autistic, and other scholars with spiritual talents could not help but cover their faces.
The method Chen Xi used was very simple, which was to change the weather. Changing the weather also follows basic laws. The cloudless sky suddenly became overcast. How much mental energy did this take?
Xun Yue didn't believe it and started to condense dark clouds. He drained all his mental strength and finally created a cloud with a radius of several meters in the air, which dispersed as soon as the wind blew.
However, the dark clouds fabricated by Chen Xi actually condensed and did not disperse, directly covering the earth with darkness.
As we all know, the reasons why night attacks are easy to succeed are: one is that it is easy to create chaos, and the other is that it tests the basic qualities Without a good food supply, night blindness becomes a fatal weakness.
It would be strange if the soldiers, who become blind at night, did not panic when they encounter a sudden attack.
As a logistics expert, Chen Xi certainly knew how to avoid this problem. He tried fish soup, fish liver, and all the preventive and therapeutic methods. Basically, every Han soldier who had received orthodox training no longer had the problem of night blindness.
On the other hand, the Dashun was itself a peasant uprising army, and they were peasants that were swiped out from the demiplane by the system and had never enjoyed the welfare of the Han Dynasty. Not to mention eating fish and meat, they were lucky to be able to barely get enough to eat.
The Dashun soldiers were horrified to find that the moon had disappeared and their field of vision was shrinking rapidly. They gradually began to lose sight of their comrades around them, and they could not even see their own hands.
Darkness is the most destructive force on a person, and the minds of the miscellaneous soldiers were so fragile that they could be easily harmed. Even though Li Zicheng used his monarchical talents to stabilize the army's morale, the morale was still visibly declining.
Fear eroded every Dashun soldier who could not see the surroundings clearly. Some soldiers had already started to attack recklessly in panic, and after accidentally injuring their teammates, an even more chaotic scene ensued.
The monarch's talent is just an amplifier. When the soldiers have no will to fight at all, the monarch's talent can't help these confused soldiers at all.
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!" Luo Shan shouted. In this situation, let alone a balance of forces, they would not lose even if the opponent had 800 soldiers fighting against their 100,000 blind men.
Luo Shan was extremely determined. He didn't care at all about Cai Xide, whom he had just sent to launch a sneak attack. If he didn't run away quickly, he would have to die here.
Luoshan's call to retreat caused the already somewhat chaotic Dashun Army to completely collapse. A complete collapse followed. The Dashun soldiers who entered the camp pushed and shoved each other in confusion. They could not see anything and could only run backwards instinctively.
The battlefield was so chaotic that Luo Shan was too lazy to even organize a retreat and simply fled with Li Zicheng. As long as one had strong internal energy, he would not have any pressure to see a few hundred meters at night. Therefore, after Li Zicheng withdrew his flag, a group of Dashun leaders were able to flee smoothly with Li Zicheng.
"Open a few holes and let these rebels surrender in an orderly manner. With such chaos, the opposing leaders would have already fled." Xun Yu was amazed. Chen Xi's move was truly a stroke of genius. He fully utilized the advantages brought by his abundant logistics to the extreme.
As a miscellaneous soldier, his trick of turning off the lights was simply unstoppable. He ended the battle easily. He was worthy of being Chen Xi.
"Open it for me!" Chen Qun tried his best to tear a hole in the sky. Only after he tried his best did the clouds in the sky suddenly dissipate. The moonlight shone again. The soldiers who were originally trapped in the darkness, in chaos and even killing each other instantly looked up at the hole in the sky.
But the next moment the moonlight disappeared again, and the hole that was originally torn open by Chen Qun was blocked tightly again.
“Poof~”
Just now, the hole was torn open, but before Chen Qun could be happy, Chen Xi's mental power launched an autonomous counterattack. Even if Chen Qun saw the opportunity and withdrew his mental power quickly enough, he was still hit by Chen Xi's mental power. In just a moment, Chen Qun realized what it meant to be invincible , and was so shocked that he spit out a mouthful of blood.
"This terrifying mental power..." Chen Qun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth unwillingly. This was a real fight and he was defeated instantly.
All the counselors who had never worked in the Government Affairs Hall and did not believe in evil began to take action. Several holes appeared in the sky, and the moonlight was scattered in. Then one by one they vomited blood and became listless. Chen Xi's huge mental power directly shattered them all. Except for Xun Yu, no hole was left.
They looked at the only hole in the sky that let the moonlight pass through, and they were all in a trance. In just a moment, the gap between them was clear at a glance. Although everyone knew that the strategist's mental power was not everything, the difference in mental power had already explained many problems.
At least Chen Xi and Xun Yu are now ahead of them in terms of mental strength, which means that they have fallen behind before the competition even starts. Even though they are all geniuses, they can't help feeling a little melancholy at this moment.
How could they accept that they had already lost before the game even started ?
On the other hand, Cai Xide, who had gone deep into the camp, felt that this was an opportunity created for him by Luo Shan, and he had to seize it.
It has to be said that the 500 cavalrymen led by Cai Xide were all elite soldiers gathered by Luoshan. They were well fed and well-fed and did not have the problem of night blindness. In fact, the stronger soldiers would automatically correct their physical defects.
If you achieve the state where the internal energy leaves the body, you will basically go through a process of cleansing your essence and transforming your marrow. No matter what problems you have, they can be solved in one go. It is equivalent to a rebirth, which can be called a physical evolution or a sublimation of life.
