"Caprice about War"
The scolding array was mentioned earlier. It means to shout and curse in front of the battle, so as to achieve the purpose of provoking the opponent to come out and fight. This can be regarded as a kind of psychological warfare. It is recorded in the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms, Shu Chronicles, and the Biography of Ma Yan" that the way of using troops is to attack the heart and attack the city below. Psychological warfare is the top, and military warfare is the bottom.
This kind of behavior of provoking the other party to force the other party to fight with him quickly is very much in line with the truth of Sun Tzu's Art of War. There is a sentence in Sun Tzu's Art of War called "Therefore, the soldier is clumsy and fast, and he has not seen the cleverness for a long time". The meaning of this sentence is that "in the art of war, I have only heard of the pursuit of quick victory by emphasizing simple tactics, but I have not seen the technique of emphasizing tactics and prolonging the war for a long time." In the same article, Sun Tzu also has a repeated statement that "the old soldier is expensive and fast, not expensive for a long time". This is enough to see the importance of quick solutions.
The setting of the scolding plot mentioned above is mainly to provoke the dragon and achieve the goal that Generalissimo Kazan wants. At first, I was too heavy on the setting of this reversal plot, which was a bit close to the meaning of playing a side ball. I've mentioned this before. said that the original plot has reached the level of killing concubines and paying (feasting) soldiers. As for what the specific plot looks like, I think you book friends should have your own answers.
Although my original plot setting is not out of line with some cases in the history of world wars. But now, after all, we are in an era of peace, and it doesn't make much sense to pursue the authenticity of war scenes too much. At the same time, such a scene description is also an impact and challenge for the three views of book friends. Therefore, in the face of such a choice, I still decided to change the original plot setting.
I don't think I need to describe the brutality of war too much. It is better to be a peaceful dog than a troubled world. This sentence should be the best portrayal of the war years. War is, to put it bluntly, a riot. It's just that this riot has its guiding ideology and overall effect, so it was named war. As for behavior on the battlefield, there is no morality to speak of. Because the essence of the riot is to break the framework of this world. So the series of moral regulations that exist in this framework are the first things to be destroyed.
For example, Genghis Khan, a figure who once swept across Europe, Asia and Africa, is like the god of war. When he attacked the city, he was accustomed to using civilians and pawns as the vanguard. In fact, to put it bluntly, these people are just used as cannon fodder to consume the enemy's siege reserves.
During the period of the struggle between Chu and Han, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, wanted to use the captured Liu Bang's father as a bargaining chip to achieve the goal of forcing Liu Bang to surrender. Liu Bang didn't care at all about Xiang Yu's threat of cooking his father, but said very calmly: I and Yu are ordered to conceive the king in the north, and we are about brothers, and I am Ruoweng; I will want to cook and eat, and I will be lucky to get a piece of the pie! Here, we will ignore whether this statement is because Liu Bang wants to protect his father by showing that he doesn't care; Or does he really not care about his dad. No matter what the reason is, this person, who has always regarded himself as a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, still chooses the great cause of the world in the face of such a choice.
Another example is Bai Qi, a famous general in the Warring States Period, who also killed 400,000 Zhao soldiers overnight; Yue Fei's poem Manjianghong also has the famous sentence "Ambition is hungry for Hulu meat, laughing and thirsty for Hun blood"; The famous general Chen Tang of the Western Han Dynasty said that "those who commit a strong man will be punished even if they are far away".
Of course, things in the human world have always been very complex and difficult to understand. Many things cannot be summed up in one word, let alone described in a single statement. War is one of them, and although its dark side is terrifying, we have to admit that many good things in the human world are also mixed in.
Those who want to glorify war with heroism and justice, or even want to start a war on their own initiative, are people who want to use it to cover up their ugly desires. Those who want to use the cruelty of war to persuade the heroic warriors to stop resisting often have their own ulterior motives.
I've been babbling nonsense here for so long, and I haven't really said anything. If anything, it is peace. At the end of this film, I would like to review Japan's nuclear weapons policy with fellow readers.
No first use of nuclear weapons, no use of nuclear weapons against non-nuclear states.
