"What is the people's army, you have to put the people in your heart, really in your heart." Li Ke poked his heart with his hand.

"You are all from a family of gate valves, or you have been born from a family of gate valves, even the worst conditions may be your father, and your grandfather is a county magistrate and other officials."

"This makes you feel a sense of separation from ordinary people, but here today, I want to make a request of you!" Li Ke looked at them and said.

Everyone didn't speak, and they all looked at Li Ke with solemn expressions.

"The prejudice in people's hearts is a big mountain." Li Ke looked at them and said lightly, "Many people look down on ordinary people in their hearts, thinking that they are pariahs and cannot be compared with you. They should not be elevated to this status. ”

"It's normal to think this way, because that's what you've been taught since you were born, your parents, everything around you. Now in the context of Datang, many of you will not show it. ”

Li Ke's words paused at this point, and the group of students below were silent for a while, some of them may not think so, but in this group of people, there are definitely people who think so.

"I don't want you to change your prejudices right away! The so-called deeds do not care about the heart, and the heart is not perfect. My request to you is very simple, even if you feel in your heart that all the people in the world are untouchables, they are born to serve you, but! On the surface, none of you can show it to me! ”

"Pretend, you have to pretend for me! To pretend to love the people like a son, love the soldiers like a son! Engrave the latest three disciplines and eight points of attention of the Tang army into your bones, this is my order to you from the King of Qin of the Tang Dynasty! Li Ke said sharply.

"Military orders are like mountains, this is a military order, whoever dares to disobey the military order should not blame me Li Ke for being unkind! You can think whatever you want in your heart, but you are not allowed to show any of them to me on the surface! ”

"Just think of it as your political wisdom, just as your political wisdom in order not to be remembered by me, the king of the Tang Dynasty, after all, if you offend me, your removal is simple, and you may have to lose your head."

"Got it?"

"Understood!" Everyone spoke loudly in unison, they did not justify whether they were like that or not, and what His Highness needed was not their justification, but to tell them that this was an order and it must be carried out!

"Well, based on this principle, we can move on to the next step."

"The combat effectiveness of the army with faith is unparalleled, you have all learned the art of war, at least you have read the military books, but there are many things that the military books will not teach you, the so-called those who have attained the Tao have much help, and those who have lost the Tao have little help."

"If you are unpopular, if this country is unpopular, then even if this army is strong in combat, they will surrender! Even if the enemy does not accept their surrender, they want to defeat the enemy and tell them, I am going to surrender! ”

"And if you win the hearts and minds of the people, and become a real people's army, when you resist foreign enemies, those people will even send you food hungry, and this is the biggest difference."

"I know, I say this, you don't believe it sometimes, but trust me, you will feel it for yourself one day."

Speaking of this, Li Ke paused for a moment before continuing: "We don't have classes today, we can talk about whatever we want, and the class schedule you see is based on the new military needs of the current Datang. ”

"And in these disciplines, to be honest, you have to learn a lot of things, not just limited to the past, you have read basic military books, know how to battle formations and change formations on the spot, and then you can lead the army to fight."

"The real war often begins before the war begins, and intelligence spying, the comparison of the strength of the enemy and our troops, the posture of the enemy and our army, etc., are all very crucial, not just to find a flaw in the enemy's formation on the battlefield, and then lead the army to charge the battle and finally win the war."

"When you've done what I've said before, you'll find that you don't even have to do that last step."

"Take the subject of military topography as an example, what you need to learn is how to use celestial phenomena to distinguish east, west, north and south, and how to distinguish north and south from the growth of leaves in the case of forests and cloudy days."

"How to use the trend of the mountains to determine where there will be water flow, how to use the direction of water flow to judge the terrain, etc."

"In fact, in the military books you have studied, including Sun Tzu's Art of War, there are sections on terrain, and you have all been exposed to different terrains and different climates such as sky, wind, snow, water, earth, and mountains."

"If these military books are to teach you to know what they are, then military topography is to teach you to know why they are."

"Everything in the world has its own laws, and when you learn the knowledge of terrain formation, the use of terrain in war will make you naturally comprehend."

"For example, the judgment of swamp terrain, quicksand and other terrain, rescue, etc., are all you need to learn."

"For example, the study of foreign armies mainly refers to the study of the armies of other countries."

"Many people may think that there is nothing to study here, and that is not the type of enemy army? But there are a lot of things in it that have a very good effect if they are used well. ”

"For example, when the other country's entire country has a religious belief that can be said to be fanatical in their country, you can use blasphemy against their gods and other ways to make the enemy's generals or soldiers make irrational decisions."

"For example, there are some sects in Tianzhu that can't kill cows, because cows are divine envoys in their sects, so what will happen if you temporarily form a cow cavalry?"

"Although the ox is not suitable for the battlefield in all aspects compared to the war horse, it is miraculous in the face of the soldiers of this sect, at least when their knives are cut, long-term faith will make them hesitate whether they will cut this cow or not."

"And fighting on the battlefield, momentary hesitation is the difference between life and death."

"There is no absolutely correct method of warfare in this world, only a good method of warfare, and different tactics are formulated for different enemy soldiers and situations, and this is the correct tactic. So that's why the course of foreign military studies is being launched. ”

"Including their usual tactics and so on."

"And the study of the knowledge of the military and arms can enable you to be more proficient in the overall management of the army, and you will not be ignorant when you lose the command staff who are proficient in the relevant army. What's more...... With the continuous restructuring of Datang Ordnance, there will be more and more types of troops in the Datang Army. ”

"And these are the classes you must know and learn."

Li Ke gave them a general explanation of the military knowledge they were going to learn next.
