Chapter 367: Political and War Double Profit (1)
The battlefield time was 14 soldiers and 24 minutes, and officers at or above the school level of the rapid response detachment gathered in the conference room of the Wanwang.
As the holographic projection device in the center of the venue was activated, General Kramer's contour image appeared in the venue, and the slightly chaotic venue fell silent.
Although this is a video conference, what you see is only a virtual image of the commander.
It can still be seen from the different expressions of individuals that although people with different positions have different opinions on the actions of the main fleet, no one can ignore the indisputable fact that this supreme commander who is uneasy and unreasonable.
I had asked a few of my generals beforehand to find out what they thought of the command's strategy.
"It's sensationalism! It seems to be unexpected by everyone, but it is completely inefficient in tactics, and the suspicion of playing with fire is very serious, if the unmanned fleet is too late to attack, and it is really blocked, it will only make our fleet fall into the stupid end of being broken one by one. ”
In the face of Wei Leili's angry comment, I really wanted to ask him, why was he so harsh on his father, was it because he was sent to the grassroots army?
In the end, I couldn't help but say these questions, after all, there were too many household chores involved, and it was really inconvenient to intervene.
Maxim was at odds with Verelli's opinion, and it was clear from his look of admiration that this guy was really shocked. "It is impossible to express in words, except for surprise is shock, politically, the performance of the main fleet is perfect. The timely rain of reinforcements can be understood as an elusive surprise attack, and the element of surprise has also been completed strategically. It is conceivable that the main fleet has an extremely profound impact on both friend and foe. No one will despise us, no one will dare to ignore or bully us. At the end of the war, Mrs. Wall will have to make amends for her personal debt in this battle. Either way, it's good for us. ”
"However, is this kind of thing a human debt also applicable to mechanical civilization?"
I really wanted to give Maxim face, but he was blowing up too much, and people wanted to find an opportunity to refute it.
"Politics is politics and doesn't change because of race or physical origin. What's more. You yourself say that Mrs. Wall is a reformer at the elite level, and the debt of favor is also useful to them. ”
I can't argue with that. Just as discussing military affairs with Verelli and starship control with Jasmine, discussing politics with Maxim must also be prepared to be completely suppressed.
Asked about Jasmine and Harding, the two stared at me for a long time with idiotic eyes, Harding pouted while picking his teeth, "Say that you are a commander, and really believe it, you are born as a big-headed soldier, don't want to be a general, it's very tiring." ”
"It's like you've been a general." Although his views are similar to mine in a sense, I am also unconvinced when people say this. What's wrong with the general, there are not a few people in history who have gone from big-headed soldiers to generals.
"Haven't you seen a pig yet? Trust me, you're definitely not that piece of material. ”
The petite female captain choked so much that I couldn't even speak, but I was still spitting in my heart, "Eldest sister, do you mean that I am not the general's material, or I am not even as good as a pig!" ”
I was afraid that her answer would mean both, so I had to clean up my self-esteem that was trampled on the ground and leave in discouragement.
The results of the contact with the brothers were very unexpected, and most people did not agree with Kramer's approach, and always felt that the negotiating team and my rapid reaction squadron were synonymous with cannon fodder.
At the beginning of the meeting, Kramer still exuded the majesty of the superior, which made people feel inviolable.
"Okay, everyone is here, I don't talk nonsense, because the command expects that the front-line troops have different views on the actions of the main fleet, the enemy is at present, in order to unify the thinking and give full play to the maximum strength of the fleet, I hereby convey to you the considerations of the main fleet, and I hope that everyone can abandon different opinions and concentrate on the enemy."
The decent opening remarks also made me feel emotional. In fact, I didn't think about it that much at first, I just wanted to find someone to talk about the amazing move of the headquarters, and I didn't expect so many people to oppose it. This also proves the point of view of Harding and Jasmine, in fact, I really don't fit in this position.
“…… I think there must be a lot to say about this operation, as a rapid response detachment that was directly affected, right? Zhao Ping. ”
I was coldly named by the commander, which startled me, and I almost knocked over the coffee cup in my hand, "I...... What do we have to say...... Heroic killing of the enemy is all we have. ”
I also knew that this answer was very clumsy, and when I peeked at Jasmine, her expression seemed to say, "Look, I said it, you are not suitable." ”
Suddenly facing the subordinates present, I lowered my head and looked at the countertop.
"Oh, Colonel, you can think about it, but I don't think you're telling the truth, and no commander can really be in a good mood in this situation."
Am I really that bad?
"What I want to tell you is that the unexpected movement of the main fleet is not the result of tactical considerations, but also the result of strategic and even political planning."
"Humph! Talk to the robots about politics! ”
Wei Leili's voice was very harsh.
"You see, I know that there are people in the rapid reaction squadron who don't understand. That's what I'm going to say, we have to talk about politics, and we have to be politically proficient, and that's important for officers at the top of the ranks. Kramer was clearly in didactic mode, but I had no objection to him taking a lesson with me, and I really felt like I was a fool in this case.
It doesn't matter if it's a fool, but if it's because of my stupidity, it hurts my comrades-in-arms, or people I know, then it shouldn't be.
"First of all, to be clear, Madame Wall is not robots, even though many parts of their bodies are metal, and the Branders are not beasts, even if their flesh is tougher than that of beasts. Their top brawns are all human, they have a human way of thinking, and they have human weaknesses. And as a commander, in the special case of not being assisted by the political bureaucracy, my strategy must include political strategy, because my opponents are also human relations. ”
Kramer's virtual image looked at the Acting Speaker, who smiled weakly, "Your Excellency, don't worry about me, I'm just an agent, far from Mr. Clark's courage and wisdom. ”
"Therefore, the strategy of the main fleet is to ensure political superiority first, and then militarily. This seems to be a strategy that has pitted the negotiating team, and some people may think that it is too risky, what if Mrs. Wall's main fleet can't rush out? I'm telling you, because the results of the strategy are too tempting to be worth the risk. ”
There was an uproar in the video conference venue, and the sounds that were beyond the normal sound wave path were filtered into a rustle, and the scene was rustling.
"Many people can't see what kind of advantage we have gained when we fall to the ground, I can only say that you need to improve your political literacy, and at the moment when the main fleet appeared, we went from taking the initiative to ask Mrs. Wall for help, to rescuing them, and I went from being regarded as a dispensable roadside stone by the Berlanders to a real opponent they had to face. The significance of these two changes is that whether they want to or not, they must face up to our existence, and reciprocity is the prescient condition for negotiations to take place. Therefore, we have taken advantage of the risks taken by the negotiating team to successfully improve our political status and become an equal existence with the two major adversaries, which has also laid the foundation for future peace talks. ”
"Two rivals, isn't Mrs. Wall an ally?"
"That's a good question, then I'm going to ask rhetorically, if we join forces to defeat the Biochemical Fleet, will Mrs. Wall let us go?"
“……”
With General Kramer's explanation, I finally realized that I was illiterate in the face of a completely new field of politics.
