"Report, front-line battle report!" An officer wanted Ishtar and brought the latest battle report: "The Federation Army has launched a landing battle against Zen!" ”

Wei Wei rescued Zhao, well, I hope this strategy can achieve results, right?

"Good, it looks like the plan is working, Federation," Ishtar said. Signal General Warfield to launch an offensive against Cladale! ”

Originally, as a military war strategy, the source of the allusion to encircling Wei and saving Zhao, but after the enemy launched an attack, he would attack.

There is a good saying: "The first strike is the strongest, and the second strike suffers!" ”

In the military art of war, there is also a saying that if the enemy does not move, I will not move, and if the enemy wants to move, I will move first. There is also a saying for "first move" in chess (referring to Go).

There is no doubt that in order to defeat the enemy, whoever takes the lead first has the greatest initiative in the battle, and the person who is behind will only be led by the nose.

"Isn't it a bit far-fetched to say that you should strike later?"

Ishtar frowned, thinking of the last military meeting, which black-haired and yellow-skinned Wang Xu.

-- Dividing line --

"Oh, so you have a deep understanding of the art of war and tactics?" At that time, Ishtar heard Wang Xu boasting that he was familiar with the art of war, and wanted to see if he was really talented, so he asked: "What do you have about our current plan that is worth improving?" ”

Wang Xu looked at him, and he quickly understood something, and smiled bitterly: "Wei Wei to save Zhao, this is a good strategy, and there is no problem in itself." ”

It seems that he should have a high degree of support for this strategy of attacking Cladale and forcing the Federation army to return to help, right?

"So, you're at a loss for what's going on?" Ishtar laughed at him a little.

Of course, there is definitely no discrimination in this, after all, the people who can now be mixed into the colonel-level officers among the Sons of Keha are definitely members of the Sons of Keha a long time ago. And if you don't have a certain level, you can't be promoted, right?

The attitude of the others was similar, most of the general-level officers were shaking their heads, and the colonel-level officers felt that he was ashamed. I thought that this guy might be able to take this opportunity to get the appreciation of the Führer, and he could ascend to the sky and become a general star in one step! Now that I think about it, I really think too much.

However, the attitude of these people was not heroic to Wang Xu, but self-stated: "The strategy of encircling Wei to save Zhao is a great military strategist in ancient times, who grasped every time on the battlefield and had just the right exquisite skills. I don't think there's anything worth perfecting, is there anything wrong with that? ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was stunned for a moment. Because if you listen to it like this, it doesn't seem like there's any problem?

Regarding this sage of military strategic thinking in ancient times of the Celestial Empire, it seems that in the wars that can be verified, every time the grasp of strategy is very appropriate, it can be said that he has reached the pinnacle level.

If it is only from this point of view, let alone this colonel-level officer, maybe all the general-level officers present may not dare to say that their grasp of war has been able to meet the standards of this ancient, right?

Estar immediately became a little more interested in him, and of course, if it was just a word, he couldn't label him anything. After all, you still haven't contributed anything, right?

But only when he noticed it, this Wang Xu also understood that this time was the time for him to show his talent. So I offered a plan: "In the "Military Struggle Chapter" in "The Art of War", there is such a sentence: Temptation is profitable, posterity will be sent, and the ancestors will come, and those who know the right plan are also! ”

"What do you mean?"

"Advance in a roundabout way, and lure the enemy to his advantage, so that the enemy does not know where I want to go, so that although I set out later, I can reach the battlefield before the enemy."

Ishtar was stunned for a moment, and if he thought about it, was this a bit like fishing? Give a bait and wait quietly to know when the fish bites the hook and is ready to pull the line? Therefore, he nodded in understanding and said, "What else does Sun Tzu say in The Art of War?" ”

"Therefore, the soldiers stand by deception, move by profit, and divide and make peace. Therefore, it is as fast as the wind, as slow as a forest, as invading as fire, as immobile as a mountain, as difficult as a cloud, and as moving as a thunderstorm. Plundering the countryside and dividing the people, dividing the land and profits, and suspending power. The prophet's roundabout plan wins, and the law of this military struggle is also. ”

"What's the point of this?"

"It is to the effect that the main change is to divide or concentrate troops according to the situation on both sides. According to the needs of the battlefield situation, when the troops move quickly, it is like a whirlwind in a storm; When you march calmly, it is like a forest slowly unfolding; When attacking cities and plundering land, they are like fierce fires; When stationed in defense, it is like a mountain; When the military situation is hidden, it is like a dark cloud covering the sun; When the army is dispatched, it is like a thunderbolt. To seize the enemy's property and plunder the people, the troops should be divided. To open up territory and seize profits, we should divide our troops and guard the key points. These should all weigh the pros and cons, and depending on the actual situation, the camera acts. The first to know that the "roundabout plan" will win, and this is the principle of military struggle. ”

Previously, Warfield confused Sun Bin and Sun Wu's "Art of War" because of a mistake. Ishtar almost thought he didn't understand military affairs just now, but now at least it seems that he still read a few books, right?

"It seems that I have to look back, what are you talking about, "The Art of War"?" Ishtar thought for a moment and said to Warfield: "Hores, you should first let him be your side and be your military staff officer, and it just so happens that you are also the supreme commander of this operation!" ”

Wang Xu corrected what he said wrongly, and did not let Warfield take it to heart, after all, his character will not treat people with any position. So there was no objection to Istta's proposal, and he nodded: "I know, it just so happens that he and I both watch "The Art of War", and we can communicate with each other!" ”

Warfield is the new head of the Ministry of Defense, and Ishtar asked Wang Xu to follow him, obviously letting him mix up the qualifications first, and by the way, see if he is really capable, or will he only talk on paper? If he is really a talent, with his mixed exploits with Warfield, he should be able to rise quickly!

I believe that the school officials sitting next to him at this time must be very envious of this Wang Xu, right? After all, this is not a lot of opportunities, and you can't expect a certain general to say his name and then run out to correct it himself, right?

Of course, if it is an officer friend who is a little familiar with Wang Xu, he may also think that this is an inevitable result, right? Because he does have the talent to become at least a general!
