"Minister, how should we make this battle plan?" Pei Xingjian asked.

And Jingwen also said: "It's actually very simple, you don't have to think about any refreshing ideas all day long." You should know that that refreshing approach is actually a risk taken by the weak. And now Datang is fighting the weak with the strong, where is the use of too risky plans? Just remember that you just need to figure out some routes and then work out the order of the cities to attack. You don't have to think about a surprise attack on Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo, and then spread the word. This is useless, now that the national consciousness of Goguryeo has risen, it is impossible for us to spread it. They are not willing to be inferior, they are definitely desperate to resist. So don't count on it, we can only get them to their knees if we have their backbone. And this kind of sneak attack depends on the rumors, and it can't break their backbones. Only by breaking their national spirit can we bring them to their knees. And to break the national spirit is to defeat them with dignity, so that they can surrender. ”

"I give you a central idea of the battle, that is, step by step, conquer city by city, so that they have no way to deal with us. They could only watch as they lost inch by inch of their country, and then finally surrendered in despair. If we use some means, they may not think that we are strong, and they will not be really afraid of us. ”

"And if we attack step by step, our logistics will also be a lot less stressful. In this way, the people behind can keep up with our army, so that we can have enough supplies at any time. This way we are not afraid to go deep alone and then not get supplies. As long as we can move forward slowly, then Goguryeo has nothing to do with us. And our logistics are much better than theirs, and we can now fight in winter, because our down jackets and tents are also filled with down, so there is no need to be afraid. And Goguryeo is much more miserable than us. They are undersupplied, so we don't have to be afraid of them. We just attacked slowly, consumed their various war potentials, and finally had to be defeated. ”

And immediately someone said: "Then we are like this, isn't this battle plan featureless?" ”

"What do you want to do with so many features when you make a battle plan?" Jingwen said very disdainfully.

Jingwen's understanding of the battle plan is actually biased towards the same theory as the attributes of some characters who played online games in later generations. The game's attributes are skewed towards some speed, some on offense, and some on defense. But these characters all have their own biases, and they often have weaknesses in the end. If the defense is strong, the attack power is not strong enough. And the defense power of a fast speed is not necessarily high. Even if the attack power is strong, the defense and recovery ability are very poor.

And it is precisely because of these biases that the iron triangle combination of the so-called "tactics pastoral" of online games in later generations has been created. However, online games are for the sake of playability, so they came up with this iron triangle combination of tactics and herds, deliberately artificially making them biased and flawed, and then making up for each other.

However, the army is different, and the battle plan formulated by the army is about balance, not deliberately biasing towards one side or the other. And Jingwen's understanding of the battle plan is that he wants to make up for the loopholes in the medicine as much as possible, that is, to get a stable battle plan. Don't be too biased in one direction. If the army forces offensive capabilities, then the logistics supply can't keep up, which is equivalent to a mage rushing into the enemy's formation alone, or defeating the enemy at once. Otherwise, you're dead.

Since ancient times, the army has always pursued stability and not all kinds of loopholes. Later, the General Staff and various departments, and even various branches of the armed forces, were all for this kind of pursuit, and there could be no loopholes in the pursuit. Then you can be invincible.

"Those who are good at fighting, first of all, make themselves invincible, so you also have to think about how we can not fail. If you follow the plan just now. Although this plan looks wonderful in the inside, the risks are also very high. Even if we take 10,000 steps back, our logistics can keep up, and the soldiers are also elite, but this kind of long distance interspersed, then I am afraid that a small number of troops will attack the enemy's capital, this success is good, but if it fails, it will be a big defeat. As staff officers, we must first find a way not to defeat the army, and then we can think about attacking. This is also the teaching of the ancients, and in fact, it is interconnected with modern times. Instead of thinking about how to defeat the enemy quickly, you should think about how to make us invincible and gradually win by the safest means. You have to remember that our Tang Dynasty is much stronger than Goguryeo, and the army is much stronger than theirs, so why should we take the risk? There is a saying among the people that those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes, but it is very unfortunate that we wear shoes. ”

Jingwen's meaning is obvious, although the Tang Dynasty is very strong now, it is a wealthy person compared to Goguryeo. But the wealthy also have a lot of scruples, what will happen if they fail this time. If this war is lost, it will also be a blow to the morale of the people. And those who bought war stocks will also be disappointed in the national war, which will not only not get the people to support the war, but will have the opposite effect. Therefore, this war cannot be lost, at least not at a loss to the people. So there are too many things that the Tang Dynasty scruples about, but Goguryeo is different, Goguryeo is also a gambler who has lost all his qiē, and they will die if they lose it again anyway, and they will have no money. Their country is weak and has little wealth, and if they lose anyway, they will have nothing, and now they are almost away from nothing, so they can let go. It's a big deal to destroy the country, and then it's enough to build it again.

In order to avoid the disaster of national annihilation, even if the country is scorched earth, it will not hesitate. And they can even use any means, any sneak attack and assassination, and all kinds of hooligan methods can be used, that is, this means. And Datang is different from Datang not only to fight, but also to maintain its own image, and even to obtain enough benefits, it can be said that there are too many scruples. And Datang himself is also a rich country, why gamble with a poor country? The Sui Dynasty was obviously a rich country, but it desperately fought with Goguryeo, and as a result, this is a rich man and a poor man gambling for their lives, isn't this a big loss? That's why Jing Wen won't make this kind of pig's head! (To be continued......)
