Everyone has a complex and contradictory spiritual path, which we call a human surname.

General Mishuchenko liked Song Biao very much, his admiration for Song Biao and his discrimination against Asians were two contradictory and different things, and his stubborn prejudice led him to believe that Song Biao was no longer Asian, although he stubbornly did not like Major Kornilov either.

Before Freud, human beings were far less aware of the physical analysis of human surnames than they knew about Christ.

There is a Cossack proverb that smart people are always born.

General Mishuchenko's rich life experience taught him what it would mean to be an extremely intelligent man in war. He seemed to listen patiently to Song Biao's long arguments, as well as these conclusive and irrefutable analyses.

After Song Biao finished talking about his speculation, General Mishuchenko raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "You mean that we must stand on the defensive, hold firmly, and keep delaying?" ”

Song Biao thought about it for a while and weighed it before saying, "That's not necessarily." 2,500 years ago, there was a man in Chinese history who we Han people called the greatest military thinker, his book is called "The Art of War", which is not the earliest military book in China, but it is the culmination of the Spring and Autumn Period. He once said, soldiers, sophistry. Translated into Russian, the meaning is simple, that is, war is deception. If you want to defeat your opponent, you must deceive your opponent and let your opponent be fooled. Although "The Art of War" is a 2,500-year-old military book, it is a must-read subject for this soldier. If we want to defeat the elite of the Yue army here, all we have to do is deceive them. ”

General Mishuchenko found it difficult to agree with these words.

2,500 years ago, before Christ was born, what era was it, and could there have been professional military writings in that era?

He didn't believe Song Biao's words, nor did he agree with the view of "soldiers, sophistry", but his inner desire for victory and fame still forced him to continue listening, he actually nodded and agreed with a clear conscience, and said: "Song, you are a smart person, tell me your method!" ”

Song Biao pointed to the map and said: "If the army sends troops again, it will inevitably be drawn from the Liaoyang region, and they will inevitably attack the south side of the Heigoutai area all the way north, which means that the front we are on now is the most important key area." My approach was simple, first, we placed most of our heavy machine guns on the northern front during the day; Second, we need to buy more local padded jackets from Shenyang and the north of the Hunhe River; Thirdly, the fortifications on the southern side were deliberately increased, and the situation of making up for the lack of firepower was made with fortifications, and at the same time, all the soldiers of the Manchurian Infantry Regiment were dressed in the clothes of locals and bandits to engage in transportation and fortification construction, and constantly exposed to the enemy, so that the army knew that there were many local laborers and bandits in Kwantung on the front; Fourth, after suffering certain losses, the southern position began to massively dispatch Manchurian infantry regiments and other soldiers dressed in bandit clothes; If we do the above four points, the army will believe that the position on the south flank is an omission of our army, and in the case of insufficient troops, we are forced to use a large number of bandits to counter the number, and the army cannot delay, if they cannot seize the position as soon as possible, they will adopt an extreme night bayonet offensive, and once they decide to do so, they will inevitably choose the position on the south flank, which in their opinion is the most vulnerable. On this basis, all we have to do is three points, one, transfer all the machine guns to the south side at night; second, the most elite soldiers were drawn and hidden in the rear, and only at night were transferred to the south side; Third, weapons are such a thing, one inch short and one inch dangerous, one inch long and one inch strong, organize all the spears of the Cossack cavalry, organize a spear formation specially to deal with the bayonet attack of the Japanese army, plus the 600 shotguns in my hand, as long as the army really organizes the bayonet offensive, they will have no return, 20,000 coming, 20,000 dead. ”

Speaking of this, he once again added to General Mishuchenko: "The so-called military is to deceive, to deceive them, to let them come up and die, and this is my strategy to deal with myself." ”

General Mishuchenko trembled slightly, and couldn't help but glance at Song Biao again, at this moment, he suddenly felt that even if this trick failed, this was called Be'o. Vladimir. The Song guys would eventually become terrible soldiers, even like Napoleon, who fought all over Europe, or all over Asia.

It's true.

He began to like Song Biao, and even felt that Song Biao should be more of a Frenchman, and this kind of dirty and obscene thing can only be thought of and done by the French.

Song Biao's strategy was too bold and insidious, and General Mishuchenko had a hard time deciding, he did not know how high the military success rate was, and he did not like this vicious style in his heart.

He even felt that if he used this method, it would be tantamount to admitting Song Biao's idea that military affairs are deception.

He firmly believes that military is strength, bravery, and unity, and his idea has been proven again and again in the Russo-Russian War, but it is only the military to show the Russian army, which really makes him feel completely ashamed, ashamed to fight with the Siberians and Muscovites.

General Mishuchenko sat quietly in his chair and pondered for a long time, but after all, he still couldn't resist the temptation of the special honor of annihilating a division of the Yue Army, and asked Song Biao again: "Do you think the Yue Army will be fooled?" ”

Song Biao replied lightly: "They will definitely be fooled, the army is a very good gambling army, once they are fooled, the whole army will come, the end may be a single one left to kill all, of course, you still need to do a lot of things, to organize an army in such a short period of time is almost the ancient Spanish spear array, this is probably not easy." ”

General Mishuchenko could no longer resist this temptation, and said categorically: "Song, then let's do it." ”

Song Biao snorted and said, "I am already preparing, and the Manchurian Infantry Regiment will build new fortifications in the vicinity of Sumabao on the south side in the afternoon according to my instructions, and build the entire fortifications on the south side into three ring lines for effective all-round defense." I also prepared tung oil, quilts and iron pots, and at the critical moment, we could at least dispel the darkness on the front. Tonight, you must gather a group of veteran sappers who can arrange trick mines, and place a large number of trick mines in a range of thirty to one hundred meters in front of the position on the south side, and there is not enough artillery, and we can also make the army pay a heavy price in this way. In addition to that, we have to make two assumptions, one is what to do if we fail, and the other is what to do if we succeed. If we succeed, our goal is not to further defeat the reinforcements, but to stabilize the position on the one hand, and on the other hand, to concentrate all the forces that can be mobilized, to raid Shendanbao, and after solving the cavalry brigade of Shendanbao, we will concentrate the main force of the entire right flank on the front line in an all-round battle, and fight to the death with the remaining reinforcements of the army, and destroy the opponent with absolute numerical superiority. ”

General Mishuchenko couldn't help but applaud and said with a smile: "Song, you will be a promising officer. Just let me ask you one more question, what are you going to do if we fail? ”

Song Biao said: "The defense line on the north side is sufficiently prepared, and even if it fails, it will not lead to the rout of the whole army." As you say, war is always risky. ”

General Mishuchenko showed a very special smile, gently smoked his pipe, and looked in the direction of the army's position, as if victory was in sight, the special nobility of being proud of the military was quite amazing, but he was actually far away from this war, he was more like an old nobleman visiting here, without a trace of dust on his body.

High-ranking generals from aristocratic backgrounds and bandits have a common shortcoming, that is, they think of war too simply, as if they only need to pile up manpower to win the war.

They don't understand modern warfare at all, and they don't even know much about ancient warfare.
