An appeal to emotion

Explanation:

Pathos is a technique that is often used in order to persuade the people. Pathos try to arouse some sort of emotion within the people and influence them to adopt a certain way of thinking.

One example of this would be when an army made a battle cry for the frontlines soldiers before engaging with the enemy.

Logically, they're the one that will most likely die first. So, military's leaders cannot appeal to their logic to encourage them to hold the line. Instead, they often arouse some sort of patriotic feelings among the soldiers to make sacrifice for the people in their hometown.
