Chapter 21 But laughing at the world and saying Liutao

At this moment, Wang Jian and a group of soldiers sat together and drank happily, and the leg of lamb was roasting on the roaring bonfire, and the mutton fat was creaking.

The arrival of the three girls made these big-headed soldiers at a loss, they had never seen such a stunning appearance, and it was still three.

Among them, Chen Yuanyuan is the most amazing, it seems that she can always give full play to her charm intentionally or unintentionally. Ma Meimei gives people a neutral beauty, and her eyebrows naturally reveal a heroic spirit, and she seems more and more mature and cold after several wars. And the little jasper-like Lu Yao'er is the most pleasing, she always has a clever and smiling demeanor, and several of the little soldiers present have been healed by her wonderful hands, and their eyes are full of gratitude and respect when they look at her.

The little soldiers didn't dare to stay longer, and hurriedly got up and retreated, but Wu Sangui seemed to have something on his mind when he left, and glanced at Chen Yuanyuan intentionally or unintentionally.

Wang Jian cut off a piece of lamb leg meat with a knife, handed it to Lu Yao'er in his arms, and said, "I'm tired today, I'll make it up for you." “

"Brother Emperor, what were you talking about just now? So hilarious. Lu Yao'er took the leg of mutton, leaned comfortably in Wang Jian's arms and asked, Yao'er is a little lazy by nature, she will never sit if she can lie down, and she loves to sleep lazy, and she loves to lie in Wang Jian's arms even more.

"It's nothing, let's talk about the soldiers." Wang Jian saw Ma Miao's eyes looking at the bonfire thoughtfully, so he asked, "Miao, how do you say to lead the army?" “

Ma Mi has no experience in leading soldiers, and only knows that in order to protect Wang Jian, she must hold the handsome seal tightly, because she simply thinks that as long as she has military power, she and Wang Jian will not be bullied. "Brother Jane, the time for the concubine to lead the army is still short, how can she understand so many truths. It's nothing more than a right match, a strange victory, right? She didn't know how to answer, but she just took out the wisdom in Sun Tzu's Art of War and replied.

Wang Jian nodded, and asked again: "Then you say, how can you achieve the right fit and win with the odd?" ”

Ma Mi thought for a while and said: "The concubine can't say it well, the concubine thinks about it, the meaning of the soldier saint is to use the main force to contain the enemy on the frontal battlefield, and then send surprise troops to win." ”

Unexpectedly, Wang Jian didn't think so after hearing it, he scolded: "Bullshit soldier saint! ”

Ma was stunned for a moment, if it was someone else, she would definitely not be convinced, but for Wang Jian, she was blindly worshipped, as long as Wang Jian said it was right: "Brother Jian, is it that the concubine misunderstood?" “

Wang Jian said: "What I scolded is my grandson's right fit and odd victory." ”

Ma Mi wondered, "Is there any difference between this?" After a few big battles, she gradually revealed the potential to become a real celebrity.

Wang Jian said: "If you have to get to the point of winning with the right and the odd, it can only show one point, that is, the two sides are evenly matched, since they are evenly matched, unless they are forced to do so, otherwise, why doesn't the coach choose to stick to the city instead of going to war?" ”

"If as a general, you know that there will be huge casualties, and you don't care about the life and death of the soldiers, and use countless lives to win, then you are not worthy of being a general!"

Wang Jian's words made Chen Yuanyuan on the side scoff, in her opinion, human life is like a mustard, death is death, in order to achieve the goal, it doesn't matter if there are countless deaths.

Wang Jian continued: "Because of the psychology of curiosity, people in the world prefer generals who win by surprise, but they don't understand that what determines a battle or even the fate of a country can only be a coincidence, so occasionally surprise soldiers may come to surprises, but..."

In the end, the sword on the battlefield has no eyes, Wang Jian is still relieved not to get off the horse, he knows that although the benefit of Yongqi is great, but the risk is greater, so he reminded: "But you have to remember, you must not be obsessed with the strange way, let alone be tired of it!" ”

In order to confirm his statement, Wang Jian said again: "Sister-in-law, think about it, why are there the most magical generals in the pre-Qin period?" That's because they're all romances, legends, and I guess there's a lot of exaggeration. The most valuable quality of a famous player is not how many whimsical tricks there are, but one step at a time, perseverance, and finally victory. ”

Ma Miao's eyes lit up, and she said: "The concubine understands, take the change of Tumu Fort as an example, Yingzong and his old man were defeated because they were not stable and steady, and they were ambushed by the Tartars, yes or no?" ”

Listening to Ma Miao's mention of Ming Yingzong, Wang Jian felt that this person was both hateful and cute, hateful was to pit the main army in the heyday of the Ming Dynasty, and the lovely thing was that he actually lived as a human spirit later: not only lived very nourishing in the enemy camp, but also could be released back in the end; And after being released back to the Ming Dynasty, he stayed up in captivity for seven years without being done, and then he was able to successfully restore.

Ming Yingzong's tactfulness and tolerance cannot be comprehended without experiencing the ups and downs of life.

"People can always learn to grow up after experiencing great changes," Wang Jian sighed as if he said himself, "The reason why the battle of Tumubao failed was, in the final analysis, that it was a common disease of human nature--- too much love." ”

"Desser?" Yao'er asked puzzled, listening to it interestingly.

"Well, it's the meaning of being too show-off, I wanted to lead 200,000 people out on an outing, I was majestic, and I brought so many bodyguards, even if I didn't win, I could get out of the way, but he had to be scared, and he showed off everywhere, which led to a big defeat." At the end, Wang Jian added: "He is guilty of the common disease of loving women like blind and smelly." ”

Of the three daughters, only Ma Concubine loves military affairs, but they all love to listen to stories and listen to Wang Jian's explanation of the past of the Yingzong Dynasty, and they also listen to it with relish. Only Chen Yuanyuan heard Wang Jian say that women's common diseases, thinking that Wang Jian was targeting her, so he gave Wang Jian a blank look, because among the three daughters, Yao'er was innocent and romantic, and Ma Miaomei was dedicated to leading the troops, and she was the only one who ate, drank and had fun everywhere every day.

Wang Jian was wronged, and unconsciously offended Chen Yuanyuan again, and he didn't know it. According to Chen Yuanyuan's cautious temper, it is estimated that he will have to wear small shoes in the future.

Wang Jian said: "The only factor that determines the outcome of a war is national strength after all. ”

Ma asked again: "Then why did the battle of Tumubao, where the rich soldiers of my Ming Kingdom outperformed the Tartars dozens of times, and finally failed?" Is it just because Yingzong is an old man, uh, Dese? ”

"Ai Xian and Ai used strange schemes to think in a flash, the failure of Tumu Fort Yingzong's Dese is on the one hand, on the other hand, the Tartar is lucky, and he met a pig-headed opponent once in a thousand years - Wang Zhen. You can't hope that your opponent is a once-in-a-millennium idiot, you know? And strong national strength is the foundation of victory, for example, Emperor Yang of Sui and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, they obviously have good national strength and don't know how to use it, but they have repeatedly failed to conquer Goryeo, do you know the reason? ”

Ma Mi thought for a while and couldn't answer, in her opinion, with the national strength of the Sui Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty, it should be easy to destroy Goryeo.

Wang Jian said: "That's because they don't know how to use national strength, they all want to go all out, and every time they do their best to conquer Goryeo, this is like two gamblers, one has a lot of money, the other Langzhong is shy, the gambling luck of the two is different, the former can lose once, twice, a hundred times, a thousand times." And the latter loses even once and loses the whole game. To put it bluntly, when you have enough gambling money, there is no such thing as not investing all your value at once. ”

Ma Miao's eyes lit up, and she said: "The concubine understands, if Emperor Yang of Sui knows how to cultivate and recuperate, he can continue to fight, for a year, two years, ten years, a hundred years, until he completely defeats Goryeo, yes or no?" ”

"Well, this is the impact of national strength on the outcome of the war, of course, it is not that the trick and plot are not good, if you use them well, you may be able to reduce our losses, but the icing on the cake, a real famous general, you must know how to balance between the right and the strange, and steadiness is always the first choice, because everyone will make mistakes on the battlefield, and victory only belongs to the side that makes fewer mistakes."

Seeing Ma Xiaomei nodding clearly, Wang Jian was also very pleased. It's not that he has any prejudice against the conspiracy, but he understands a truth:

Success has been fortunate since ancient times, but the world laughs at Liutao!

There is a famous saying in later generations: laymen talk about strategy and tactics, and insiders talk about logistics and supply. What is logistics? It is the comprehensive national strength, the national strength is here, and a stable pig can be sent to win, but the national strength is not enough, and the soldier saint is born in vain. Just like how later generations boasted, if it weren't for the twelve gold medals of Song Gaozong, Yue Fei would seem to be able to really hit the Huanglong Mansion, with the national strength of the Southern Song Dynasty, it would be impossible to support the heroic and upright Yue Fei to launch a nation-destroying campaign against the Jin Dynasty. In Wang Jian's view, it may only be impossible to rely on the power of one or two famous generals to turn things around.
