Chapter 413: I'll give you a homework
There is no need to worry about classroom discipline, even if Li Yuanji is not here, they will definitely not dare to come nonsense, after all, the military regulations are there, and none of these officers will be willing to make trouble on this.
And Li Yuanji's personal lecture also attracted the attention of these people.
Not to mention anything else, even the name of the emperor's lecture can make them brag for a lifetime.
There are thousands of people in the military academy, and only these 40 or so people have this treatment, although it is purely a stroke of luck.
"Who knows the battle of Xiazhou, where are the problems of the red and blue armies?" Li Yuanji directly divided the Qi army and the Tang army into the red and blue armies, and did not use the traditional title of our army and the enemy army, and now they are all their own people, and it is not good to engage in those awkward topics in people's hearts.
The Red Army refers to the Qi Army, and the Blue Army refers to the Tang Army, which does not need to be said by Li Yuanji, the color of the flag on the sand table has already told them.
After waiting for a while, he found that no one answered, and when he looked up, he found that the students below were a little restrained, and knocked on the side of the sand table with the pole in his hand, "This is the class, I am not a monarch, just one of your instructors, here, no matter what you think, you can speak boldly." Everyone can speak freely, don't worry about being inconsiderate or anything, only those who dare to speak are the ones who really have the ability to solve problems. ”
"The disadvantage of the Red Army lies in the lack of troops, and the advantage lies in the advanced equipment and tight military formations, which can take care of each other in a timely manner, while the advantages and disadvantages of the Red Army are, in turn, the advantages and disadvantages of the Blue Army." With Li Yuanji's explanation, someone finally dared to speak his opinion in a low voice.
Only a small fraction of those present had participated in the war, and most of the rest had not.
When Huang Jian retired, the Qi army had not yet gone south, so naturally he did not participate in that battle, and what he knows now is only through the situation shown on the sand table.
Huang Jian's opening was not recognized by many students, but some people disagreed in their hearts.
Who can't see such a simple question? The emperor deliberately chose this case to explain, it must have a deeper meaning, how can it be as simple as it seems on the surface?
Although what Huang Jian said was true, they always felt that there was another mystery in it.
"Yes, that's actually it." Li Yuanji's affirmation surprised everyone, and they all felt that it was a little unlikely, why is the problem so simple?
Some people wanted to refute, but they couldn't open their mouths, perhaps because the time was too tight, so Li Yuanji didn't continue to wait, and continued: "Many times, the problem is not as complicated as you think, at any time, anywhere, in any battle, your advantage is the enemy's disadvantage, and the enemy's disadvantage is your advantage, so no matter what the situation, as a commander, you must consider a problem, how to use your strengths and avoid weaknesses, and use your own advantages to touch the enemy's disadvantages." ”
"Emotions? As a commander, you can do anything, but you can't do anything with emotion. ”
"There is no absolute advantage in this world, and there is no absolute disadvantage, if I am the commander of the Blue Army, Fengzhou will definitely not be able to keep it, and Xiazhou may not be able to keep it, but Chang'an will definitely be able to keep it, and even the number of casualties can be controlled within 10,000 people, or even fewer casualties to defeat the Red Army." Li Yuanji said unceremoniously.
'Buzz ......'
Li Yuanji's words exploded in everyone's minds in an instant, and the most shocking one was Li Jing.
In terms of strategy, Li Jing's ability is no worse than anyone else's, but he has been thinking about this issue for several years, but in the past few years, he still hasn't been able to figure out these problems, let alone how to turn the situation around.
"Your Majesty......" No matter what the students' reaction is, Li Jing can't help it anyway, although the battle of Xiazhou has nothing to do with him, but the previous battle of Fengzhou was defeated in his hands, if Fengzhou is not defeated, the battle of Xiazhou will not happen, let alone fail.
And this piece of heart disease that has been bothering him, Li Jing can't solve it immediately.
Li Yuanji waved his hand, naturally knowing the question Li Jing wanted to ask: "I'll talk about this question later, I will give you a homework assignment first, each of you is the commander of the Blue Army, and has the right to mobilize all the forces of the Blue Army, and the strategic promotion and deployment of the Red Army remains unchanged, starting from the Red Army leaving the Qi State, use all the methods you think are feasible to carry out a blockade on the Red Army." If some details are not clear, you can ask after you come down, you can discuss it, you can do it alone, or you can do it with multiple people, but the number of people is not more than five. ”
Li Yuanji has never been a teacher, and he doesn't know the coolness of assigning classwork, so he has not really experienced it until now.
Not to mention, this feeling is really refreshing, which makes people look like what they are, especially when they look at the sad looks of the crowd, not to mention the smugness in their hearts.
Of course, Li Yuanji didn't expect these people to give a truly perfect answer.
The purpose of this is not to answer the question, but to let them open their minds and do everything possible to come up with various solutions in the existing situation.
That's the way it is on the battlefield, it's better to say who is more bullish, it's better to say that the commanders on both sides have bigger brains than whom, and there are more tricks that make people unguardable, as for the soldiers, in fact, they are all the same, excellent or not, it all depends on their own experience and training, at least, the officers and men of the Tang Army are not weaker than any force in terms of individual soldier ability.
"This battle involves several aspects, division, delay, encirclement, and ......deterrence," Li Yuanji said non-stop, and roughly described the situation on the battlefield at that time.
Although the details are not too clear, there is no problem with the overall situation, including the troops, equipment, and positions of both the enemy and us.
With Li Yuanji's explanation, the army members who had been waiting on the side quickly moved the flag on the sand table accordingly.
The battle of Xiazhou that day is now repeated on the sand table in an almost game-like way.
Although there was less of some fierce fighting and the exciting atmosphere of the battlefield, everyone present could still feel the pressure on the Blues back then, especially when the rocket launchers were moved out, the Blues had no power to resist.
Even many people feel that they should not be allowed to play the commander of the Blue Army, but to play the commander of the Red Army, and then see who can defeat the Blue Army in the fastest speed and in the shortest time.
Although it was just a sand table, it still made them feel very cowardly.
Li Yuanji will explain each step accordingly, although it is not particularly detailed, but why did the Red Army take this step? What is the purpose? These two points are very clear, even in the subsequent developments.
And it is precisely because of the clear understanding that people can understand the strength and terror of the Red Army in those years.
Although the Red Army had it back then, they also had it, and now they are far more powerful than the Red Army of that year, whether it is long-range support or hand-to-hand combat of individual soldiers, the current Tang Army has developed a set of more reasonable combat methods, if the current Tang Army is placed in the position of the Blue Army of that year, then the final defeat will definitely be the Red Army.
But there is no if, and the current Tang Army has also fully absorbed the elite part of the Red Army back then, and only under the leadership of Li Yuanji has come to this point.
Everyone present was proud, proud of their identity, for their own nation, and for their military identity.
But after this class, the pride on their bodies, the pride on their bodies, was ruthlessly torn apart by Li Yuanji, and trampled on countless times.
For the change of identity, it is a little difficult for these people to accept for a while.
Besides, this is just an ordinary mixed class of generals and schools, in other words, the lowest class in this military school.
The classes of the military academy are divided into three kinds, one is the class where Li Yuanji is currently located, in which there are the lowest generals, some at the rank of captain, and some at the rank of captain.
The other is a unified level, that is, everyone in a class has the same rank, saying that all captains are captains, all team leaders are team leaders, and all generals are generals.
The last type is a high-level class, which has a small number of people, but in the army, it is also at the level of the first and second leaders, and it is the object of key training.
And the three levels, representing three completely different treatment, the mixed class is mostly a logistics recruit department, they do not need to go to the front line often, but subject to the influence of the position, they must know more, so the mixed class does not matter, after all, a lot of knowledge is universal.
At the same level, the content of the lectures is almost the same, and the knowledge is adjusted accordingly according to the different levels, and after these people leave, most of them will be promoted one level on the basis of their current positions, and then awarded the corresponding military ranks.
Generals, there is no direct promotion after leaving, they will return to their original position, and then go to experience it again, if they show convincing ability, they will be promoted, otherwise they will lose the opportunity to be promoted.
In other words, as long as these people leave the military academy and pass the assessment period, they are at least bigwigs who can sit on one side.
As long as the military academy is still there, as long as there are no problems on it, the combat effectiveness of the Tang Army will always exist, and it will not decline because of the passage of time and the lack of training in war, which is the purpose of Li Yuanji's establishment of the military academy.
The class ended like this, the content was very loose, just reviewed the battle of the year, and then made some explanations, and the students frowned one by one, pondering hard.
Li Jing nodded secretly, and he vaguely knew how to do a good job in the military academy.
Teaching and educating people, rote memorization is not the way to solve the problem, but should give the topic, give a certain idea, let them find their own solutions, only in this way, can they learn and apply in the future, and will not be completely blind when they arrive in the new environment.
