Chapter 583: The Battle That Must Be Lost
At Nihonmatsu's castle tower, Asano spread out the map and explained to Zenyu the front and back of the Ou War, as well as the current situation on the battlefield. Zenyu was not at all interested in the causes and consequences of the war between the Aizu clan and the Japanese government forces. Matsudaira Rongbao is loyal, and Shanyu can't understand it at all. But for the current situation of the Ou Domain, Zenyu is very pessimistic, this is simply a lost battle.
"If you don't fight, you just surrender, and if you want to fight, you fight with your heart. What does this Matsudaira Rongbao mean by twisting and pinching! The war is in full swing, but the main general is hesitating between the war and the peace, how can the morale of the army be stabilized! "After Shanyu understood the attitude of the main force of the battlefield, Aizu Domain, he almost didn't turn his back on it, what kind of battle is this!
"All the feudal clans are the courtiers of His Majesty the Emperor, and they have no intention of confronting His Majesty the Emperor, but they are just traitors in the court and trouble, and they are bent on making things difficult for the Aizu Domain, so they have to raise troops to resist this time. The Aizu clan also did not want to bear the stigma of being a thief army, and they had no choice but to sue for peace by war. Asano was also a Manchurian veteran, and of course knew that the ideology of the Manchurians was completely different from that of the Japanese.
"Brain disease! The war is uncertain, and this is how the Qing Dynasty was defeated by the British and French forces! Shanyu directly burst out with a sentence of the Jiaoliao official dialect that he had just learned, that is, the Dalian dialect of Guoxing's previous life.
War and uncertainty have always been taboos for soldiers, and a living example is in front of us, and this is how the Second Opium War of the Qing Dynasty was lost. Emperor Xianfeng and the imperial court have been fighting and talking with the British and French forces, which caused the monks and others on the front line to be afraid and miss many fighters. It was in this kind of war and uncertainty that the Qing Dynasty completely lost the normal war, and even almost lost its own country.
Moreover, the brain circuits of the Japanese are really strange to a height, and it is simply unreasonable that the Aizu clan still expects the government army to be tired of fighting, and then let them go. The funniest thing is the respect that the Japanese have for the emperor, what is this emperor doing? Three generations of shogunate plus more than two hundred years of the Warring States period, the Japanese emperor has stood aside for almost a thousand years, where is there any authority, why should such a thing be respected all the time! The shogunate, which held power in Japan, had always supported the emperor and a large group of ministers, and it was unbelievable that the daimyo who were the courtiers of the shogunate also respected this puppet-like guy.
"The emperor is the co-lord of the world, and his subjects are always in awe!" Asano, who accepted Manchurian thought, actually found Matsudaira Rongbao and others funny. The emperor is completely a political puppet made by the Kamakura shogunate in order to suppress the power of the minister, and as a result, the samurai who have been fooling people with the emperor have been fooling people, and after nearly a thousand years of deception, it seems that they have been fooled and lame.
"Division commander, pay attention to your words, the emperor is at most the co-ruler of Japan, and he is not qualified for the word "world!" As a political commissar, Shanyu must of course ensure that his partner is politically correct. The term co-lord of the world is not something that the Japanese emperor can afford, even if it can't be used on Guoxinga, it has to be used on the Tongzhi Emperor.
"Hay, I lost my word!" Asano hurriedly confessed his mistake to his former subordinates, and his master was not the emperor, but Goxinga, who was in charge of his family's meal tickets.
"Is it so important that the thief army or something? In the name of a Qingjun, you can't get it. A bunch of elm heads! "Shanyu is back in the battle situation, the word Qingjun side, everyone in North Manchu is very familiar with it, if one day Guoxing'a and the imperial court are fighting again, it must be such a statement.
"The alliance of the feudal domains, just to defend the homeland, is not as long-term as you think!" Asano also thinks that the Kiyojun side and the like are good.
"Confused! What is the word for defending the homeland? Just saying that they are defending their homeland is tantamount to acknowledging the legitimacy of the government army's attack on them, and simply giving up the name of righteousness to the other side. The soldiers all knew that the other party was the emperor's own army, and they were ordered to crusade against them, where is there still the courage to fight, and how can the morale of the army be stable! "Zenyu regrets coming to support Asano, because Asano's teammates are simply a bunch of pigs.
"It's really inappropriate for the public to decide!" Asano just went home to help, and he was also speechless about these bigwigs of the Ou Domain.
"They did not do this wrong, but they died! The rhetoric of seeking peace by war and defending the countryside confined them to a framework of defending and not attacking. If they are only beaten and don't fight back, even if they are all heavenly soldiers, they will be worn to death by the government army sooner or later! At this time, there is no way to play only defending! "Shanyu is a top student of Manchurian Land University, even if he has no experience in actually commanding large corps battles, but he has learned a lot of things from books, and he has pointed out the biggest mistake of the Okuyu Domain.
"The feudal domains did not have many troops, and the command system was chaotic, so they were completely unable to form an effective command center. Moreover, their equipment is backward, their training is insufficient, and their tactics are still in the era of cold weapons. "Asano has long seen a bunch of problems with the feudal alliance.
"Even if they are all elite soldiers, they are in vain, and there are wars everywhere in Echigoguchi, Nikkokou, Nihonmatsu, and Shirakawa Castle. The strength of the coalition army is not much, and it is still fortified everywhere, and its own strength is even thinner, so there is no reason to be invincible! They're not backward in their tactics, they're just a bunch of idiots! In such a war, as long as the other party is not a group of pigs, they will die! "Compared with the map provided by Niwa Ichigaku, and analyzed the battle situation in various places, Shanyu was completely defeated by his teammates, what a group of pig teammates!
"Shanyu, they just don't learn new tactics, and the heart of loyalty and protection of the land is still very desirable!" Niwa Yixue's face is the same color as bitter gourd, and Asano has to stop Shanyu, Shanyu scolds too happily.
"What does this have to do with the new tactics, how many such examples have been fought throughout the ages, and a person who leads troops to fight should understand it! I, Emperor Taizu of the Qing Dynasty, Nurhachi, is just a chieftain in the mountains, will he know any new tactics? In the face of the Ming army's four-way army attacking, he also knew that no matter how many ways you came, I would only go all the way, and concentrate superior forces to defeat the enemy army one by one. These well-educated people of the Aizu Domain, how many Chinese and foreign classics they read, and as a result, they commanded the battle like this, which is too nonsense! "When Guo Xing'a was in class at the military academy, he smashed the emperors of the Qing Dynasty when he had nothing to do, so the officers of Manchuria did not have much respect for the emperors of *.
"I understand the reason, but this is the situation now, what do you say to do?" Niwa rolled his eyes as soon as he learned it, and Asano quickly stopped Zenyu's accusations against the Aizu Domain, hoping that he would quickly come up with an idea.
"Let's take one step at a time!" Shanyu is out of power now.
