228. The plan to save Zhao from Wei Wei
For Ishtar to give such a right, the matter of Amazon, attracted the attention of other officers. Barbara, for example, came running over and said, "Aren't you afraid of creating a warlord?" β
However, to this question, Ishtar replied, "If the warlords were to be good, would the Federation still be alive until now?" β
Yes, warlords are not easy to be, as long as they are officers, they can be armed with a few people and a little territory. Think about it, if so, how many fleets are there in the Federation? How many generals? Do you own a planet, or even a galaxy?
You must know that if you want to become a warlord, the first point is that the control of the central government is weakened, or it is in a state where the central power is suspended. In order to ensure local security, local officers will gather their soldiers to form a separatist force to deal with external threats.
In fact, from ancient times to the present, this kind of warlord or local power division is undoubtedly the right of the central government, and after being shaken significantly, it loses its deterrent effect, and only then will it gradually be overwhelmed by local forces. This point is more famous in the late Tang Dynasty of the Celestial Dynasty, after the Anshi Rebellion, the authority of the central government could not suppress the locality, which was the direct reason for the division of feudal towns.
Ishtar only gave the Amazon the right to independent command, but the supply of supplies was guaranteed by the government of the son of Keha, choking this lifeline. Don't say it's a base maker he can rest assured, even if it's handed over to someone who isn't a base, it doesn't matter!
"Well, seriously, I wouldn't believe that Amazon would do something rebellious." Barbara must have known that the Minotaur and the Amazon had great prestige among the Sons of Keha, and that it was perfectly fine for her to set up a hill on her own if she wanted to. Give her an independent command, and it won't be a problem.
Ishtar smiled, then dodged her and said, "As a military staff officer, do you have a strategy against the enemy?" β
Most of the generals are in command of operations, and the staff officers are to plan the overall situation.
Barbara is an excellent staff officer, so I'm sure she already has some good ideas for this battle, right?
"Now the Federation wants to launch a military counterattack against ZEN, but at the same time, we should also know that our reinforcements are about to arrive. If we go straight to CradΓ¨re now, we can get the Federation Army to come back quickly to relieve the crisis on Planet Zen! β
There are guerrillas of the Federation on the planet ZEN, and the outside is adapted to the wheel warfare attack by the Federation Army, although the Amazon is good at defense, but after all, the military strength is at a disadvantage. Moreover, the continuous consumption of combat power will gradually increase the crisis of fall.
"Well, yours is special? Why don't we just rescue Planet Zen? "Isha is a little strange, the so-called back pain cures the waist, is there a back pain who treats the ass?
However, Barbara's explanation here is: "The failure of the Minotaur attack on Cladale is believed that the Federation Army will learn this lesson, and Gerard is not a fool, and will inevitably keep a close watch on us." Although we could have broken the siege in the past, we must have also pounced on the void, and there was little strategic significance. β
"Siege Wei to save Zhao!" A well-known allusion: "We take Cladele directly, because of the relationship between this planet and the planet ZEN, if it is defeated by our army, the Federation army will become a homeless lost dog, and will be caught in the middle." It is taboo for soldiers to be attacked on both sides, so the Federation Army must come to the rescue, so that not only can you easily save ZEN, but you can also fight an encounter with this Federation Expeditionary Force! β
"Good strategy!" Ishtar complimented her: "I really don't know why you are so smart, and the Federation Army only gave you a regimental position." β
yes, I remember the second time I saw Barbara, she had the rank of captain on her shoulders. This is completely out of line with her material! The Federation is too condescending!
Barbara just smiled at this: "In fact, as a staff officer, no matter how good your plan is, whether it can be passed in the end depends on the general, and whether it is implemented well depends on the people below." β
Staff officers, in fact, are like ancient strategists, whether their suggestions can be adopted or not depends on whether the monarch above can be implemented smoothly, and whether the soldiers are brave in battle.
Ishtar nodded in understanding. can't know people, can't use people, how many heroes miss the opportunity to dominate the world? For example, the most famous "Overlord of Western Chu", even if there is only one Fan Zeng in his hand, he will not use it, everything is just by virtue of momentary bravery, in the end, as long as he loses even one game, he will inevitably lose all the games!
But Liu Bang, who was born as his opponent a ruffian scoundrel, has Xiao He and Han Xin around him, even if it is a temporary failure? It's a big deal to hide, develop slowly, and when the strength matures, it's time to make a comeback.
"Okay, I'll use your strategy!"
Since Ishtar is not a brave Xiang Yu, since it is a professional staff officer who puts forward professional opinions, and indeed has the current strategic consensus, there is no need not to implement it.
Of course, he contacted the other officers, especially the commander-in-chief, Hores. Field Marshal Warfield. These people have also fought battles, and most of them have made great achievements, and they also affirmed this strategy.
Warfield said: "I also think this strategy is good, the initiator of the siege of Wei to save Zhao, Sun Bin is also a big man in military strategy." He wrote "The Art of War", I still read it! β
"Huh?" A black-haired officer was stunned for a moment and said, "Marshal Warfield, the "Art of War" you mentioned is not Sun Bin, it is a book written by Sun Wu. Although they both have the surname Sun, and they all have the title of 'Sun Tzu' in later generations, they are actually two completely different people, not only the age difference of nearly a hundred years, but also according to the research, the genealogy of the two is different! β
Saying the wrong person's name, Horis coughed slightly in embarrassment.
Ishtar glanced at the black-haired officer and said, "I haven't seen you before, what's your name?" β
"Wang Xu!"
On Wang Xu's military uniform, it is the school-level military rank of Keha's son, and everyone here is a general, and the school-level is sitting next to him. However, his words attracted the attention of all the generals present.
Ishtar looked at him and nodded at him, "Well, it looks like you've read the Art of War?" β
"Yes, I am from the pre-federal UN period, and I am a Celestial Empire. The "Art of War" mentioned by Warfield and the strategy of "encircling Wei to save Zhao" talked about this time are all from my Celestial Empire. Naturally, I am familiar with these tactics and tactics! β
