Chapter 124: Teaching (Collect)
Short-sighted, pedantic and confused. Liu Zuochen commented on those colleagues who ridiculed him, and did not regret his choice.
The scholar's scarf has been trampled into the dirt by the Tartars; The pen is splendid, but it is difficult to beat the bloody iron hooves. Liu Zuochen followed Bai Wenxuan to lead his troops into Burma to meet him, saw battles and battles, and witnessed how many unknown soldiers were buried in other places. But in the eyes of those civil officials who read poetry and books, soldiers should be like this, and rude and unknown soldiers are still small and humble.
The touch may have already been there, when the war drums sounded, when the Qing army charged, Liu Zuochen hated himself for being weak and unable to go into battle to kill the enemy.
When I saw Zhu Yongxing announcing the establishment of the Mission Department in front of the civil officials, and looking at it with expectant eyes, he received an indifferent response; When I saw the eagerness in Zhu Yongxing's eyes dimmed, I couldn't hide the disappointment. Liu Zuochen felt a heartache and resolutely stood up.
Maybe he was hot-headed at the time, but then Liu Zuochen felt that he was lucky. His Royal Highness Min strategized and defeated the Qing army, and began to implement a series of new initiatives in the army. Liu Zuochen was alienated by his colleagues, but he was valued by Zhu Yongxing, and he was often able to discuss and communicate with Zhu Yongxing. The more he came into contact, the more he felt that His Royal Highness Min was thinking deeply, and his vision was far away, as if he was helping God, which always made him feel far away and have a bright future.
Ambition is comparable to heaven and earth; Bestowed by God, who will compete? It's ridiculous that those pedantic and stubborn people didn't see that His Royal Highness Min was doing things to change and save the world, and they still held on to their defects and consciously kept their heads.
Liu Zuochen pushed open the window, breathed in the fresh air, and suddenly felt refreshed. As the head of the Department of Missions, his subordinates now have no more than 100 people, all of whom are articulate and eloquent soldiers selected from the army. The focus of his work was to teach the materials written by Zhu Yongxing and the content of the propaganda to be conveyed to his subordinates, and then his subordinates would preach them in the army.
Well, it's almost time to give lectures. Liu Zuochen's other job is to teach his subordinates to read and read, quite like a teacher, which is very criticized by his former colleagues.
Sage Cloud: There is no class in teaching. These guys' books are all in the dog's belly. Liu Zuochen thought of the white eyes and ridicule of others again, and couldn't help but sneer.
"The capital of Yao, the soil of Shun, the seal of Yu, should be in the middle, a half shameful minister. Thousands of miles are as bloody as promised, and the heroic souls of the ages are here. Why did Hu Yun ask, He Ri ...... out of the house, the sun was shining on his body, warm and comfortable, Liu Zuochen took a square step, chanting the content of today's lecture, with a bright smile on his face.
……………
"Although our army has won the victory, the overall situation is still that the enemy is strong and we are weak, and the enemy attacks and defends. But defense is also divided into active defense and passive defense. Let's talk about passive defense first, that is, every point must be defended, every city must be defended, not only the forces are scattered, but it is also difficult to break the superior enemy attack. Active defense means not taking the preservation of the area as the main goal, but paying more attention to the annihilation of the enemy's vital force. To achieve this, it is necessary to give full play to the superiority of operations on the internal front and implement the principle of concentrating superior forces and annihilating the enemy individually. ”
When Liu Zuochen was teaching his subordinates to read and read, Zhu Yongxing was also facing the generals of the Ming army, teaching about the changes in strategy and tactics in the future. The reason for this was that he was not at ease with Bai Wenxuan and others, fearing that they would still play the same old way and lose the fruits of victory, so that they would not be able to contain the Qing army in Yunnan Province, which would greatly increase his pressure on Annam.
Now the Ming army is taking advantage of the victory to expand the occupied area, and will soon occupy Tengchong County and Longling County, and will go out to the Nu River to confront the Qing army across the river.
But prosperity is also vigorous, and death is also sudden. If the Qing army had made a comeback despite the difficulties of the rainy season, there would have been no change in tactics, and it would not have been surprising that the Ming army would have failed again. From the Qing army's three-way attack on the southwest, it can be seen that the Ming army's command and arrangement were erroneous and conservative, and troops were sent to block each road and each key city to defend, and there was no operational plan to concentrate troops to annihilate all the way.
That's a really puzzling question. It stands to reason that even the wild boar skin ** Hachi knows the way of playing, "Let him come a few ways, I will only go all the way", as a famous general through the ages, Li Dingguo actually adopted the most stupid and conservative tactics, Zhu Yongxing felt very incredible every time he thought of this.
"Your Highness." Changguo Gong Gao Wengui is a fierce general, otherwise he would not have served as the chief general of Mopanshan Erfu, because of this, he felt very puzzled by the new tactics proposed by Zhu Yongxing, "The enemy is strong and I am weak, the enemy is big and I am small, how can our army have superior troops?" ”
Zhu Yongxing blinked, feeling that what he had just said seemed to be a little incomplete and rigorous, so he went on to explain: "It is the general trend that the enemy is strong and we are weak, but in some areas, if the enemy comes by different routes, the forces will inevitably be dispersed, and if our army only targets one of its routes, it is still possible to form a superior force. But if you want to attack it all the way, you must be quick and fierce, and carry out a quick decisive battle, so as not to be outflanked by other Qing troops. ”
"Then if the Qing army does not move in different ways, how should our army deal with it?" Ma Zide behaved very attentively in front of Zhu Yongxing, and being able to ask such a question also shows that he is not pretending, but is exactly attentive.
The main purpose of gathering troops, tightly encircling and slowing down the advance seems to be the tactics of Chiang's army during the second anti-encirclement and suppression. Zhu Yongxing recalled, smiled faintly, and said: "The Qing army came to attack in a group? Then our army will retreat from the battle and lure the enemy deeper. When the enemy occupies a place, he must divide his troops to defend it, right? The grain road is stretched, so we should also pay attention to protection, right? Our army is constantly feinting, and the enemy must also send troops to intercept and surround it, right? So how do you not go your separate ways? As long as the enemy is mobilized, there will always be flaws, and our army will have a chance. ”
According to the specific situation, the Red Army was able to defeat several encirclements and suppressions in succession with a tactic of luring the enemy into depth, and of course it was not the same, but it was used flexibly, and the process of each victory was different. Just like the war book, there are also many people who read it, but their understanding is different, and their practical application is also very different. Some people have become famous generals, while others have lost their lives on paper.
Zhu Yongxing could not explain everything, and laid out a way to deal with every tactic that the Qing army might use, and he felt that as long as he adhered to the purpose of "not focusing on the gains and losses of one city or one place", the specific use of tactics had to rely on the Ming generals themselves to figure out and practice.
Even so, the generals of the Ming army who listened to Zhu Yongxing's new military theories were still very shocked and surprised. In particular, the several battle cases described by Zhu Yongxing's makeover give people a feeling of enlightenment and refreshment.
It turns out that the war can be fought like this, and even "dragging" is a means of victory. Almost all the generals of the Ming army had a feeling that their horizons were suddenly broadened, and their eyes looking at Zhu Yongxing were also full of admiration.
