Chapter 130: Attack
Yue Wang Gou Jian carefully felt the subtle changes brought about by this void space, and he suddenly said, "You know some yin and yang techniques, right?" ”
"Maybe it's been a long time, and I've almost forgotten it." Wei Ziheng, hearing what King Goujian of Yue said, he couldn't help but start gesturing with his hands.
Gou Jian, the king of Yue, directly put forward one of his views: "Although I don't know much about the yin-yang technique of the Yin-Yang family, I still have some hearsay. It seems that many of the techniques of the Yin and Yang family are interconnected. Obviously, your void world is a very special thing, and I think if you learn some more basic yin-yang arts. I think it's going to have some wonders. ”
Wei Ziheng was a little puzzled: "How do you say this?" Is it with the blessing of nothingness, can it increase attack power? ”
King Yue Goujian pondered, and said for a while: "I can't say that, because your technique is too magical and mysterious, and in the Yin and Yang family, it is definitely a forbidden existence." In short, if you learn some Yin-Yang techniques, you may be very talented. ”
Wei Ziheng aroused his interest a little at this time, and said in disbelief: "Then I'll try it in the future, maybe it will help me." ”
Immediately after staying in the void space for a while, Wei Ziheng was also immersed in this void world like Gou Jian, the king of Yue, and felt some of the physical and mental changes brought about by this world.
Wei Ziheng stayed for a while and then decided to break away: "Yue Wang Goujian, then I will go first, you can stay here for a while." ”
Yue Wang Goujian nodded and said, "It's okay, as long as you don't die, this world will exist." I think he has done me a lot of good, and I want to practice well. ”
Wei Ziheng's spirit returned to the real world, and there was a feeling of being in a different world, and the time seemed to be almost at night.
After eating dinner in a hurry, Wei Ziheng and the three of them had a brief conversation, while resting, or practicing. Tomorrow's opponents, they have a big chance of victory.
As long as you take serious rest and preparation, it shouldn't be too much of a problem, as long as you pay attention to Tianziming's attack, everything is in your hands.
Wei Ziheng pondered for a while, and finally picked up his grandson's thirteen articles and studied them carefully. Only when reading books can calm his mind can he consider some philosophical avenues and improve his physical and mental cultivation.
These thirteen articles were turned over and over, and finally this plot once again attracted Wei Ziheng's attention. Since talking to Mozi, his attitude towards these thirteen articles has been completely new.
Sun Tzu said: The law of the husband and the soldier, the whole country is the first, and the country is second; The whole army is the first, and the broken army is second; The whole brigade is the first, and the broken brigade is second; The whole pawn is the first, and the broken pawn is second; The whole army is the first, and the army is second. Therefore, a hundred battles are won, and the good of the bad is also good; The soldiers who surrender without a fight, and the good ones are also good.
Therefore, the army is attacked, the second is the enemy, the second is the army, and the next is to attack the city. The siege of the city is a last resort. Repair the oar, with equipment, three months and then become, distance from the trench, and then three months and then be. The ants will be overwhelmed and the ants will be attached to it, and those who will kill a third of the soldiers and the city will not be pulled out, and this attack will also be a disaster.
Therefore, those who make good use of soldiers, the soldiers of the people instead of the war, the city of the people instead of the attack, the destruction of the country of the people instead of the long, will fight for the whole world, so the soldiers are not immediately profitable, and the method of attacking is also.
Therefore, the method of using soldiers, ten is to surround it, five is to attack it, and the multiple is divided, the enemy can fight, the few can escape, and if not, it can be avoided. Therefore, the small enemy is strong, and the big enemy is also captured.
The husband and the general, the auxiliary of the country, the auxiliary Zhou will make the country strong, and the auxiliary gap will make the country weak.
Therefore, the reason why the monarch suffers from the army is that he does not know that the army can not be called advancing, and he does not know that the army cannot retreat and is called retreating, which is called the army. Those who do not know the affairs of the three armies but are in the same position as the three armies are confused. If you don't know the power of the three armies and the responsibilities of the three armies, the sergeant is suspicious. If the three armies are confused and suspicious, the princes will be in difficulty. It is said that the rebel army wins.
Therefore, there are five ways to win: those who know what they can fight and those who can't win win; The one who knows the few wins; The one who wants the same wins; Treat those who are not safe to win; The one who can but does not win wins. These five are the way to win.
Therefore, it is said: know each other and know yourself, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles; Knowing oneself without knowing the other, one wins and one loses; I don't know who I am, I don't know myself, I will die in every battle.
After reading the whole text, I feel extraordinary, and the mystery in this text is fascinating. Sun Tzu used expressive brushwork to explain to people what it means to attack, and showed people the use of attack tactics on the march with an objective fact and an extremely profound truth.
If you read it carefully, you can understand it like this.
The principle of using troops is to bring the enemy to its knees, surrendering without a fight is the best policy, and defeating the enemy country is inferior; It is the best policy to bring the enemy's entire army to its knees, and it is inferior to the enemy's army to defeat it; It is the best policy to subjugate the ranks of one of the enemy's "brigades", and it is inferior to defeat one of the enemy's "brigades"; It is the best policy to make the enemy's "pawn" surrender, and the "team" that defeats the enemy's "pawn" is second-class; It is the best policy to make the enemy's "army" surrender, and to break the enemy's "army" is inferior. Therefore, winning a hundred battles is not the best strategy for using troops, and only before attacking a city, let the enemy's military capabilities (including command and combat capabilities) be seriously lacking, and there is no ability to resist at all, can it be regarded as the most clever of the highest.
Therefore, the best strategy of using troops is to seek victory, followed by diplomatic means to defeat the enemy, and then to send troops to attack the enemy to win, and the last strategy is to attack the city. Siege is used only as a last resort. It took three months to make siege slurs and rams, and to prepare various siege equipment. It will take another three months to build the earth mountain for the siege. The commander could not control his anger, and drove the soldiers to climb the ladder to attack the city like ants, so that the soldiers suffered one-third casualties and could not conquer it, which was the harm caused by the siege.
Therefore, a man who is good at using his troops to bring the enemy to his knees instead of relying on war, to capture the enemy's cities instead of by hard attack, to destroy the enemy's country instead of by fighting for a long time, and to win the world with perfect strategies, so that his forces will not be lost, but he can win a complete victory, this is the method of attacking the enemy by plotting.
The principle of employing troops is: if there are ten times the number of troops, we will encircle the enemy, if we have five times the number of troops, if we have twice the number of troops, we will divide and destroy the enemy, if we have the same number of troops, we can resist, if we have less than the enemy, we must avoid direct contact with the enemy, and if we have less troops, we must retreat far away. Therefore, if a weak army is stubborn and stubborn, it will become a prisoner of a strong enemy army.
The general is the assistant of the country, and the country will be strong if the assistance is well-organized; If the assistant is negligent and fails to fulfill his duties, the country will inevitably weaken. There are three kinds of harm that the monarch inflicts on the army: he does not know under what conditions the army can fight and makes it attack, and he does not know under what circumstances the army can retreat and retreats, which binds the hands and feet of the army. If we do not know the internal affairs of the three armed services in detail and meddle in the political affairs of the three armed services, the officers and men of the armed forces will not know what to do. Participating in the command of the army without understanding the tactics of the mutiny in the army will make the officers and men suspicious. The army was confused and suspicious, and the army of the vassal states took the opportunity to attack, and disaster befell them, which was to lose the victory by throwing themselves into disarray.
There are five factors in predicting victory: knowing what conditions can or cannot be fought and can win; Those who know how to use more soldiers and fewer soldiers can win; The whole army can win if they are united; Those who treat the unprepared with a prepared teacher can win; The commander is capable and the monarch does not intervene in it, and he wins. These five points are the principles of foreknowledge of victory.
Therefore, if you know each other and know yourself, you will not be defeated in a hundred battles; Those who do not know the enemy and are familiar with themselves will win and lose; If you don't know the enemy and you don't know yourself, you will inevitably lose every battle.
Such a detailed narrative shows people what is the military righteousness of the country in the words of soldiers.
This article mainly reflects several strategies.
The first point is to think calmly and use strategy to defeat the enemy.
Four types of forms of defeating the enemy are summarized, and their advantages and disadvantages are ranked, with both a big picture and specific measures to be taken in the last resort. Sun Tzu believed that war strategy and diplomacy were important strategies for winning without a war, and that generals and leaders needed to control their emotions and think calmly and thoughtfully, and find the best way to achieve the greatest victory.
The second point is the law of using soldiers.
The strength of both the enemy and us determines the law of using troops in war, and in view of these specific comparisons of troops, we should choose different combat methods, and if we can fight if we can fight, we will run away if we can't fight, that is, we will retreat strategically. Of course, when the strength of the troops is stronger than the enemy, it is also necessary to protect the main force of the generals, and in modern battles, we pay attention to the "decapitation" operation, and paralyze the command system before the campaign begins.
The third point is that it will not be subject to the foreign monarch's order.
The monarch and the generals are mutual, and the generals learn and sum up in the practice of constant battles and understand all the situations in the army, while the monarch cannot interfere with the affairs handled by the generals if they do not know the actual situation of the army. Therefore, there is an old saying: "The general will not be subject to the king's order outside", and the general's opinion on the monarch's commission when leading troops to fight abroad can be used as a reference, but it is inconsistent with the actual situation, and he can make his own decision.
Wei Ziheng sighed silently and stood up. In fact, the complexity of national affairs is far greater than I imagined, and although these things may seem like words on paper and may be difficult to apply in practice, they are generally an understanding and way of thinking about war.
How to use it flexibly is the key, and it is absolutely impossible to copy and use it.
Wei Ziheng thought back to the present, the situation of the six secretaries of the Jin State, maybe war is a matter of imminence.
He has to know more about this in order to make a name for himself in practical applications. These 13 articles of Sun Zhi are undoubtedly a huge treasure trove, and every time you study them from a different angle, you will have different perceptions, and the perceptions will accumulate together and eventually form a kind of habitual thought.
Wei Ziheng, you very much hope that this kind of thinking can always accompany you, in this era when the benevolence of the king of Zhou is about to disappear, the competition between the heroes is inevitable, Mozi advocates a just war, but after all, it cannot prevent the beginning of the war.
The factions within the military family are quite complex, but the overall trend is to flourish, which is destined to be too few wars in the future.
At the same time, in recent years, some technological innovations and changes in the country have become more and more like the overall development of the country to a climax. The use of iron objects is becoming more and more common, and the ideology and scale of warfare are changing in different ways.
The wars of benevolence and righteousness in the Spring and Autumn Period have disappeared, and the era of those clerical battles and competitions has passed.
The overall scale of the war is moving more and more in an unpredictable direction.
Sun Wu, the representative of today's soldiers, put forward many methods of future warfare with advanced consciousness, and what kind of war is it to describe to people?
Wei Ziheng was also glad that this book of war was not circulated at this time, otherwise it would be seen by the monarchs of various countries, I am afraid that some warlike monarchs will inspire their own war hearts, and it is estimated that China will be ruined by then.
However, this does not mean that some princes and kings with ulterior motives want to gain more land and hegemony, and they will not stop the pace of evil expansion. From the beginning of the division of the king of Zhou to the present, the great powers have appeared one after another, and the strength of the separatist side has become more and more obvious, and at this time, the situation in the whole of China is quite clear.
Some people even say that the world will eventually be unified, which is not alarmist. But judging from the development trend of the overall situation in the world, I am afraid that this possibility will really happen.
Wei Ziheng slowly clenched his fists, and he felt more and more that the overall situation of the world, which seemed to be calm, would soon be overturned.
