Chapter 55: Know yourself and your enemy
Liu Fan's eyes flashed with a faint dark light, and he quietly looked at Xie Hao and said, "Lvmarshal Xie is also a veteran soldier, so what do you think is the most important point in winning an offensive battle?" ”
This time, not only Xie Hao was stumped by Liu Fan's question, but even Wang Kai, Li Min, Ma Youlai and others were all in the same place, how to answer this, it's too much!
"Sufficient food and grass, the commander is well-directed, the soldiers are not afraid of life and death, etc., etc., ......etc., etc
Li Min suddenly thought of the 'war opportunity theory' that Liu Fan once told himself and Uncle Chen, is it the most important thing to seize the war opportunity?
Ma Youlai won the defensive battle in Ganzhou this year because of the strategy proposed by Liu Fan to Xingying, is it the most important war strategy?
But what Wang Kai thought of was 'the colonel is the first, and the soldiers are not afraid of life and death'.
In the silence, I only heard Liu Fan continue slowly: "Some people may think that logistics support is the most important, because the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first!" There are also those who will argue that a complete military strategy is the most important, because no campaign can be left unplanned; Some people also believe that the most important thing is for soldiers to be fearless of life and death and strive to move forward. ”
"But I think that these are of course very important, but for the attacker, what is the most important, our ancestor, Sun Wu, the supreme saint of the military family, has already said clearly in his chapter on attacking, 'Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not lose a hundred battles'."
After the crowd had almost digested the meaning of their words, Liu Fan continued, "Qiu Mazi has been entrenched in Guangwu County for many years, and the officers and soldiers have to fight once every two years, but they have never cut the grass out of the roots, and even sent troops several times more than their men and horses every time but rarely won victories. ”
"None of these are these, the main reason is that there is a problem with our plan, because we don't know the situation of Qiu Mazi and his bandit troops, we can't know ourselves and the enemy, and the plan we make can't prescribe the right medicine, and we may not even make a plan in advance, and just hit it over, in the final analysis, we don't have a deep grasp of the opponent's situation."
"Take this year's Ganzhou defensive battle as an example, some people may think that the correct strategy is very important, but I think the more important thing is that we know Nuer Ge Fan very well this person, when we formulated the strategy beforehand, we knew that this person would definitely attack Ganzhou City before his main force arrived, and we also knew that he would not rush east after capturing Ganzhou City, so when we finally formulated the strategy of defending the city, we set up a circle to close the door and fight wolves on the basis of knowing the situation of Nu and Ge Fan, so we said, Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is the premise of making a plan, and it is also the most critical point to win an offensive war. ”
Speaking of this, the group, including Wang Kai and Li Min, all bowed slightly, and Xie Hao, who represented the party, was already flushed.
"So I can tell a few of you responsibly, you are in a hurry, and I am also in a hurry, but the more anxious you are, the more you can't be reckless."
As he spoke, he slapped his hand on the account book that was put aside, "In the past few days, I have carefully flipped through all the documents and files of Qiu Mazi that have been kept in the camp in recent years and have never been accessed by anyone, and I feel that there is still a certain gain, and sharpening the knife will not mistake the woodcutter." ”
After Liu Fan finished speaking, Xie Hao immediately stood up and saluted Liu Fan, "I have been taught, it is the inferior people who are too anxious, and they have misunderstood Liu Duwei, we have done something wrong, and I ask Duwei to punish him." ”
"I know that you are also out of a public interest in suppressing bandits, but sometimes you must calm down and think more about how we can achieve the goal of war at the lowest cost."
"Yes, I wrote it down."
At this time, Wang Kai laughed and interjected, "Xie Dabeard, let me tell you, don't think that you will ignore the young man Liu Duwei after eating military food for a few more years, I had the same mood as you when I was in Ganzhou City, and I was against him everywhere at first, but in the end, even my rotten life was saved by Liu Duwei, I know that your two times are not much better than me, I still advise you to put away the psychology of going against Liu Duwei as soon as possible in the future, don't be inconsistent with what you seem, then you will suffer in the end." ”
"Yes, yes, Lao Wang, I have written it down, it seems that I will also learn from you, and I will not dig out my mind to engage in these twists and turns in the future."
Liu Fan saw that this person was sincere now, so he smiled at him kindly.
At this time, a female guard walked in quickly and said a few words to Li Min, and Li Min replied in a low voice before glancing at Liu Fan.
Liu Fan knew that there must be something important about this, and said to the brigade commanders, "Then let's do this today, after the generals go back, they will also seriously think about how to fight the battle of Qiu Mazi, and step up the training of soldiers, and make preparations before the battle, I estimate that we will set off soon." ”
After hearing Liu Fan's words, all the brigade commanders were shocked, and they clasped their fists and said in unison, "Obey the captain's fishing order!" ”
After waiting for the brigade commanders to leave, Li Min glared at Liu Fan and Wang Kai and said: "It's all the trouble caused by the two of you, eat flower wine, eat flower wine, why do you still show the appearance of a literati and write poems and lyrics, Wang Kai is not in the way, no, it's a task." ”
Seeing that the two of them were still dumbfounded, he said helplessly, "Hurry up and pack up and leave, the literati in Liangzhou were almost wiped out in the finals of the Flower List Competition, and even Xu Pan, who had been locked up at home by the Xu Governor's Mansion, was urgently released, but it didn't work out. ”
After listening to Li Min's words, Liu Fan also sighed in a low voice, "Didn't I have to write that poem that day to suppress Xu Pan's arrogance, and also to save Brother Wang's urgency by the way, who would have thought that this kind of thing could be brought out?" ”
Liu Fan thought in his heart, there is no way, since it is General Manager Guo's order, that is, he has to go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, not to mention that if he doesn't succeed and finally the literati in Liangzhou are defeated, he will not blame himself for being a reckless man in the army.
immediately said to Wang Kai, "Brother Wang, let's go together, I have been in this school field for several days, go out for a walk, and by the way, take a look at the demeanor of the talented and beautiful people in Beijing." ”
As soon as the guards around him heard the two of them talking, they immediately went to the stable to take the mounts of the three, Liu Fan took advantage of this little leisure, and casually asked Li Min: "Xiaomin, there are still preliminary and final rounds in this flower list competition?" ”
Before Li Min could speak, Wang Kai had already spoken, "Of course, I seem to have told you about this before, why did you ask again?" ”
"Oh, maybe I didn't care at the time."
"This flower list competition not only has a preliminary round, but also a semi-final and a final, which is tightly organized!"
"Damn, the relationship is that this organization has a problem with the World Cup!"
"But this year's situation is slightly different, and a semi-final has been added, first of all, the local Qinglou girls in Liangzhou will enter the top 16 through the preliminary round, and then eight players will be eliminated after a semi-final, and the remaining eight players will form a new top 16 player with four players selected by Beijing and Luoyang, and then the top four players will be selected through the semi-finals, and finally the champion of this year's flower list competition will be determined through the final."
Liu Fan laughed and said, "Brother Wang, I have been taught, but I feel that Brother Wang's participation in the military is really burying talents, and you should stay in the Qinglou Chu Pavilion all day long to organize the Flower List Contest and other beauty differences to reflect your talents." ”
"Haha, Liu Fanye, who knows me, I have been unsatisfactory in the military for a few years, and I once considered getting an errand in the Qinglou."
Li Min heard that the two of them were talking more and more edgelessly, and said helplessly, "Hurry up and shut your mouths and get on the horse, there is no reliable way to speak!" ”
Wang Kai and Liu Fan glanced at each other, so they had to shut their mouths in a sneer, and went out together to follow Li Min to the scene of the flower list competition.
Today is the last day of the 10th celebration, the celebration in Liangzhou area has also reached the climax of the 10th, not only the flower list competition today to determine the final ranking, and the folk music selected by the states and counties near Liangzhou is also in the big square in front of the government today for the last formal performance, by the Liangzhou prefect yamen and the folk elected by the elders with both ability and political integrity jointly form a jury, will be the final evaluation of the performance of the participating teams, so as to also arrange the performance ranking of the state and county quyi teams.
