Guo Peng was not surprised at all about Guo Chengzhi's thoughts.

Young people who have never really seen the battlefield are full of passion. When they imagine the battlefield, they always wear romantic filters.

I feel that killing the enemy in blood is a heroic and romantic thing. After defeating, I slumped on the battlefield with my comrades to celebrate the surviving life. How romantic it is.

Unfortunately, this only exists in imagination.

On the real battlefield, there are all dead people, and living people are fighting each other, and the next moment they will become dead people, and the death is extremely miserable.

There are half of the head, broken limbs and arms on the ground, broken internal organs, blood everywhere, mixed with soil and weeds, and the smell is so strong that it is almost suffocating and evil spirits are soaring.

If it is difficult to understand, it is almost as good as a restricted zombie film, and the soldiers on adrenaline are no more rational than zombies.

When the soldier's eyes are red, he will feel very excited due to adrenaline. The more he kills, the more excited he becomes. He will only feel that there is not enough blood and the enemy is not dead thoroughly enough.

Imagine that you are on the set of a zombie movie, surrounded by broken corpses, with a smell of fishy smell. A bunch of armed "zombies" that cost you life are coming over, waving your weapons to get rid of you.

Still romantic?

It was pure horror, a horror that was beyond imagination with great visual impact.

So Guo Peng could only sigh and shook his head.

"Is the battlefield you imagined? Is it the fierce scene of two armies fighting to the death? The heroic general led the soldiers to fight bloody battles and finally won victory and glory?"

Guo Peng looked at Guo Chengzhi.

Guo Chengzhi nodded immediately - that is the real battlefield and place for young passionate men to gain fame.

How romantic it would be to lead the general to fight bloody battles on the battlefield, fight bloodyly, and completely defeat the enemy!

Guo Peng shook his head firmly.

"Chengzhi, you have to remember that this is the experience summarized by the eldest father's lifelong battle."

"My father, please speak."

"From ancient times to the present, all the famous generals and generals whose achievements have been recorded in history, all their thoughts are how to ensure that they can fight less on the battlefield with more and bully the weak, so as to win the war as soon as possible.

No general is willing to fight a war of disadvantage. The basis for victory in the war is actually to win more and bully the weak. If a war cannot be fought like this, then it means that it is not strong enough and is forced to fight under the disadvantage."

"this……"

The passionate teenager Guo Chengzhi was a little unacceptable to such a situation.

"Didn't you see it? All the military books you have read, all the famous generals and the works and ideas they left behind are all about how to put yourself in a place of victory. Isn't the meaning here just to make you try to put yourself in a situation where you can bully the weak with more and less?"

Guo Peng smiled: "On this basis, there are tactics, tactics, and power to make changes. But inheriting the will, before tactics and strategies are used, the outcome of the war has been generally determined. A large number of people is an advantage, and bullying the weak is an advantage."

Guo Chengzhi felt that he really couldn't understand what Guo Peng was thinking.

But his great father was a famous general in all battles, and he won every battle and never lost his life. Is the truth he said wrong?

He was very confused.

Guo Pengyuan looked at the purgatory-like Black Mountain and sighed.

He remembered the hardships and difficulties he had when he first began to fight.

"The so-called military tactics and tactics all require the prerequisite of execution. This prerequisite is abundant materials and soldiers who obey orders. These two are based on abundant national strength. Without strong national strength, there will be no strong army.

From this point of view, all military books want to tell you the most is not how to use the army to overcome the enemy, but to use your strong national strength reasonably, crush the enemy with an absolute advantage, and win overwhelmingly.

Throughout history, most military victories have been achieved in this way. The reason why those battles that win with less and weak defeat the strong are famous is that they are really rare and require luck and are almost unreplicable.

All the wars that Dafu fought were fully prepared before the war, nor were they without adventure. During the adventures, Dafu was in danger, and several injuries on his body were left behind in the adventures and almost died.

In addition, every battle that Dafu fought has at least 60% chance of winning. The further he went, the greater the chance of winning, and the more confident he was. That is, Dafu's military strength was not as many as Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, but the gap was not so big that they could crush Dafu.

In a decisive battle with Yuan Shao, Dafu mobilized more than 50,000 combat soldiers, and a cavalry of Wuhuan for my use, with a total force of no less than 70,000. Although Yuan Shao's total combat soldiers were about 100,000, he did not have more soldiers than me when he actually sent them to the battlefield to face the battle head-on.

In a decisive battle with Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu's total strength was almost the same as mine. I dispatched about 80,000 combat soldiers, and Yuan Shu's total number of combat soldiers was only about 110,000 to 20,000. He was also guarded in various places and defeated them one by one. By the final decisive battle, the troops he could place on the battlefield were almost equal to me."

Guo Chengzhi took a deep breath and was very surprised.

He felt that what Guo Peng said made sense.

But the gorgeous tactics in military tactics, the generals, strategists, and they...

Actually, it's not that gorgeous?

"Dafather, in this way, are those famous generals and advisers not very meaningful?"

"No, very big, very big, and has a decisive significance."

Guo Peng turned his head and looked at Guo Chengzhi: "If the opponent of the eldest father is not Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, who have significant defects and are far inferior to those of the eldest father, the eldest father may not be able to defeat them. You have forgotten the truth that a general is unable to exhaust the three armies to death?"

Guo Chengzhi was stunned.

"I...I just don't understand what the meaning of military tactics is, if all wars can be decided before the beginning."

"Of course it makes sense. Who can win a group of ordinary farmers with peerless swords against a group of trained soldiers who also hold peerless swords?"

Guo Peng asked.

"Naturally a soldier."

"Yes, this is the value of military tactics. Military tactics can turn a group of ordinary farmers into a group of elite soldiers. When both the enemy and us have excellent swords, isn't the meaning of military tactics? You are not always so lucky, you meet opponents who are much weaker than you."

Guo Peng's metaphor made Guo Chengzhi suddenly realize.

"So that's it... I understand that national strength and military strategy are indispensable. The two complement each other and are victorious."

"right."

Guo Peng nodded with satisfaction and said, "When we first attacked Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, the two warlords who had stabilized the rear, our army made sufficient preparations in advance. The number of soldiers in our army was not as large as that of Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, but our army was the first to launch an attack.

When our army attacks, he defends, the initiative is on our army. Our army moves first, and then moves later, and mobilizes troops. At this time, our army has already set up the troops he defends in various places to defeat, annihilate, and reduce his troops one after another.

Yes, his total strength is more than our army, but the war is not the one that we both agreed to a broad area and line up all the troops in a face to face. That is the war before the Spring and Autumn Period, not the war we are now.

Our army has fewer total troops, but on local battlefields, his troops are not as strong as our army. Our army has only 30,000 main forces, but his troops are only 3,000 to defend the city, and our army's troops are ten times more powerful than him, so it is not difficult to attack his city.

One city, two cities, three cities, one after another, slowly, the total strength of our two armies was equal, and his advantage was eliminated by our army. If he hadn't reacted, our army could further expand its advantage and reverse the strength comparison between the two sides."

Guo Chengzhi suddenly clapped his hands.

"So that's it, we cut their troops bit by bit, so that there will be no gap in our strength! We can even go in reverse than him, as long as we move fast enough!"

Guo Peng nodded.

"Warning war requires the initiative. The initiative is very important. Our army can seize the initiative by launching an attack first. It takes time to mobilize troops, gather time, and travel to the scheduled battlefield. During this period, our army can continuously weaken its strength in various ways before the decisive battle.

He is indeed a giant, but at least on one battlefield, our army has more troops than him, so we can bully the weak, win, and attack his strength. By accumulating small victories, constantly expanding advantages, and accumulating small victories into big victories. This is the mystery of winning with less."

Guo Chengzhi was amazed by it, nodded repeatedly, his eyes full of brilliant colors.

"It's really a miracle that my father uses troops!"

"There are many preparations before the war, and the victory will be decided before the war."

Guo Peng smiled and said, "Of course, defeating more with less actually means that the strength of both sides is not far different. If the strength gap is too large, any means are meaningless."

As he said this, Guo Peng pointed his hand at the place of death in the blazing fire ahead: "This scene is the result of our Wei national strength completely crushing the Black Mountain bandit army! The complete crushing of national strength makes the military strategy pale, but of course, it cannot cover its glory!

We attacked it with a long-range ignition tank and a thunderclap. None of our army was injured, and the bandit army was already struggling to survive in the fire and could not get it. If this lasted for several days, our army would win without any effort! This is the combination of military strategy and national strength!”

Guo Chengzhi followed Guo Peng's hand and looked over.

This time, what he saw was not destruction and confusion, but a clear world.

This is the reason why the Wei Empire went from a thousand-man army to a huge complex of more than 80 million people all the way.

Guo Chengzhi understands it!
