Looking at Bai Lian solemnly, I know... If I want Bai Lian to become a truly supreme strategist, then... I must first let him establish a strong self-confidence. How can a strategist without self-confidence become a good strategist
Looking at Bai Lian apologetically, I knew... The person who caused Bai Lian to be so unconfident was actually none other than me... leading an army of millions and besieging more than 10,000 of my people for a whole year, but not only did he fail to We strangled, but we destroyed countless cities. This is undoubtedly the biggest blow to a proud military strategist. The enemy is very weak, but he is very powerful, but he can't do anything to the enemy. This feeling is too much. It hurt his self-confidence!
I know very well that if I just use my words to comfort and encourage, it will not have the slightest effect, fact! Only facts will allow him to regain his confidence!
After thinking for a while, I laughed, patted Bai Lian on the shoulder and said, "I know, you must think I am comforting you, but have you ever thought about it, you and the other party's military advisor are really not the same type!"
Looking at Bai Lian who looked confused, I became serious and said firmly: "And I think that although you are not as good as the other party's military advisor in some aspects, that is not the most important thing. What is important is that you have more skills." In many aspects, it far surpasses the opponent's military advisor!"
ah! After hearing my words, Bai Lian screamed in surprise.
Looking at Bai Lian closely, I said in a deep voice: "A military advisor should not only look at the opponent's strengths, but also look at the opponent's weaknesses, and then seize his weaknesses to launch a fierce attack. The so-called three people walking together must have our division." , you cannot be stronger than others in any aspect, and there is no need to be like this. You only need to be stronger than the enemy in one aspect. Seize your strengths, find out the opponent's loopholes, and then give a fatal blow. This is a The supreme military advisor!"
Boss!
After hearing what I said, Bai Lian screamed excitedly. Seeing Bai Lian's excited look, I knew... He was already a little moved by my words. He smiled slightly and I continued: "To be honest, even if I give you some more exercise 100 years later, if we repeat the battle we had back then, you will still be defeated, and the result will not be the same at all, do you know why?"
After hearing my words, Bai Lian's eyes flashed fiercely and he said without giving in: "Well... I understand, boss, every time when our army enters your ten-kilometer range, you can always detect it in advance, and when When we encircle you, you will always rush out of the gap in time at the moment before the encirclement!"
At this point, Bai Lian smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "The most important thing is that our speeds are too different. It is too unrealistic for you to let the cow people and the bear people chase you werewolves. Although the speed of the horse people is good, But he can't catch up. Even if he catches up, facing the wolf cavalry, the war horses will be in a mess and will not be able to form an effective threat at all, so... "
kindness…
I nodded and said appreciatively: "Yes, you summed it up very well. This is the fact. You may not believe it. I am really no longer an ordinary person. I can judge unknown dangers in advance, and then Reasonable evasion is why you can never encircle us or sneak attack us, and this... is where I am better than you!"
Bai Lian nodded in admiration, and said in agreement: "Indeed, boss... Not only me, there is probably no one in the world who can compare with you in this regard. On this point, I am absolutely convinced, and I will give you I won’t be able to develop this skill in 100 years, or even 1,000 years!”
Nodding slightly, I said in a deep voice: "But... even though this is the case, I will never become a supreme strategist. Do you understand why?"
After listening to my words, Bai Lian lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then said excitedly: "I understand, boss, although you are strong in this aspect, you still have to organize tens of millions of troops for coordinated operations and various organizational tasks, such as I don’t have a clear understanding of war preparations, marching, strategic deployment, and strategic arrangements, as well as the basic strategies and rules of war!”
At this point, Bai Lian laughed and said: "To put it bluntly, you may not be able to become the most outstanding military advisor, but at the very least, you are not now. If you are a military advisor now, you are just a rookie military advisor. You have too many things." I don’t even know, and I lack the experience necessary to be a military advisor!”
Nodding confidently, Bai Lianda said: "Although I am not as good as you in some aspects... but in many aspects, you are also not as good as me, and those... are the most important things as a strategist!"
I nodded happily, and said with a smile: "Look... now you understand, it doesn't mean that he is better than you in one aspect, he must be better than you. To measure the quality of a military advisor, you cannot judge the quality of a military advisor in a certain way." It’s not measured by individual qualities, but by a comprehensive quality!”
At this point, I pointed to the enemy's army and said: "The opponent's military advisor is thoughtful and cautious in using his troops. This is his characteristic and what he is good at. But have you ever considered what his shortcomings are? You are better than him. In what aspect? Could it be that... I really just said that you are better than him just to comfort you? "
After listening to my words, Bai Lian couldn't help but think deeply, but... After thinking for a long time, he still had no clue. Looking at the frowning Bai Lian, I knew... He was a fan of the authorities and got into trouble. I'm afraid it would be difficult for him for a while. Thought-of.
Looking at Bai Lian gently, I reminded: "The best way to compare is to put yourself in someone else's shoes. This is also a quality that a military advisor must possess. Think about it, if you and he were in the same position now, what would you do? What would you do? Then compare your approach with his approach and see how the outcome will be different?"
After hearing my words, Bai Lian's eyes suddenly lit up, and he began to think quickly. For a long time... Bai Lian jumped up suddenly and shouted ecstatically: "I understand, I really understand!"
Looking at me excitedly, Bai Lian said eagerly: "Although he is very cautious in using his troops and controls every step just right, which can be said to be flawless, he has lost a lot of flexibility because he is too formulaic and rigid. The attack of the army has entered a pattern, and it is completely unable to surpass the thinking of the predecessors!"
After a pause, Bai Lian continued to say excitedly: "The way to use troops is to use both the right and the right, but his is too right. It is almost like a textbook standard, losing flexibility and adaptability. Therefore, although he attacked just now, He was very meticulous, but my defense was also tight-lipped! From this aspect, we should have matched up against each other, and I did not lose to him!"
Hahahahaha…
Laughing and nodding, I agreed: "That's right, the battle you just fought was just like the simulated battle you had in school. Everything was done according to traditional textbooks. There was nothing new at all. When should we do this?" There is nothing wrong with what you should do and when you shouldn’t do it!”
Having said this, I smiled slightly and said softly: "If you, as a student, do this, you will undoubtedly get a big perfect score, but... will you become a good strategist like this? Will you become a supreme commander?" Are you a military advisor?"
No!
Bai Lian interrupted me excitedly and said decisively: "Students with good grades in school will never become the best military advisors. The only consequence of being too superstitious about books is to be counted out!"
After a pause, Bai Lian's eyes shone and he said: "A truly excellent military advisor will never let the enemy guess what he is going to do or how he is going to do it. It should never be what the opponent is showing right now!"
kindness…
I nodded affirmatively and said calmly: "Then have you ever thought about what you would do if you and he changed places? Compared with his approach, who is better and who is worse? "
this…
Facing my question, Bai Lian fell into deep thought again. What would he do if he were in charge of nearly 2 million troops and attacked a city with only 400,000 defenders
After pondering for a while, Bai Lian's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said confidently: "Well... Although his approach seems very stable, it is not suitable for the current situation. If our strengths are about the same, then his strategy Yes, but... their total strength is about five times that of ours. If they still use this tactic, it will be too conservative! The result of pursuing stability too much is to waste the opportunity to fight! This is definitely a big failure!"
With a confident smile, Bai Lian continued: "If I were their military advisor, then I would wait for all the troops to arrive, and then lead an army of 2 million to launch a full-line attack, and launch an all-round attack on all fronts of the Suspicion of Heaven. Attack, so that the opponent's military division can be defeated in one fell swoop when it is difficult to take care of the head and tail, instead of only launching an attack on partial city walls like now, so that we can concentrate our efforts to fight against them. This is obviously stupid, and it is not Sensible!"
kindness…
Smiling and nodding, I said, "Your approach is similar to mine. The other party's strategist must have wanted to use their concentrated power to capture us in one fell swoop, but they didn't think about it. When they concentrated, we also concentrated. And when they dispersed, we also dispersed. In contrast, their dispersion did not affect the density of the front, but we were greatly affected."
kindness…
Bai Lian nodded and said excitedly: "Yes, if they attack across the board, I'm afraid we will have to dispatch an army of orcs to resist it. It's not like we are so leisurely now. Although many brothers died, but With the cooperation of our mage troops, the enemy's casualties will be more than ten times ours!"
Smiling and nodding, I continued: "Lao Bai, think carefully, what will the other side's military advisor do next? What will he do? And how should we deal with it?"
After thinking for a moment, Bai Lian showed a bright smile on his face and said confidently: "According to the textbook method, he should be organizing attacks from both sides now. This time just now should be a feint attack. The real attack will be Coming from both sides of us, the next time we charge, the purpose of the frontal troops will only be to contain them! They will no longer be able to easily attack the city wall!"
After hearing Bai Lian's words, I couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know about this, but...how do you think we should deal with it?"
After listening to my words, Bai Lian frowned and said depressedly: "Originally... we only divided our troops to resist, and then let them in from the front. But now our troops are too small. Once we divide our troops to resist the armies on both sides, If so, then... our defense will be greatly reduced. Even if we hold on for this round, I'm afraid we won't be able to withstand the opponent's next round of attacks from all directions!"
After frowning and thinking hard for a while, Bai Lian said helplessly: "It seems... our only way is to mobilize the orc army as soon as possible. Only in this way can we achieve the greatest results with the least damage. Got it!"
I shook my head with a smile, and said with a sinister smile: "No! We still have a way to resist the opponent. As a good strategist, you should not only consider various factors on the battlefield, but also many things outside the battlefield. But it can be of great help!”
Looking at Bai Lian's puzzled gaze, I said gloomily: "Our army is obviously more well-trained than the opponent's, and our combat effectiveness is obviously higher than the opponent's. In this case..."
With a smile, I continued: "Since all decisions are made by the opponent's military advisor, then... we only need to kill their military advisor at the most critical moment, and then lead the army to attack and use our army's powerful impact Use your strength to completely defeat the enemy!"
Frowning tightly, Bai Lian said worriedly: "Boss, with thousands of troops and horses standing in front of us, how are you going to assassinate the opponent's general? Do you want to do it yourself? That can't be done. Everyone can Everyone is watching you, as the resident commander, you cannot leave the position of commander without permission!"
With a sinister smile, I shook my head and said, "No, no, no... Although I have the ability to assassinate him, it's not my turn to take action yet. As you said, a commander is the backbone of an army and cannot do anything without permission. Every soldier on the battlefield is looking at me when I leave my position. Once I go out, it means that I am in a hurry and it will affect the morale of the soldiers!"
After a slight pause, I said confidently: "So don't worry, I won't take action personally, but don't worry, I will definitely be able to successfully kill the opponent's general, even if I don't do it!"
Looking at me in admiration, Bai Lian said happily: "It would be great if we could kill the opponent's general. Once we lose command, the opponent's army will be in chaos. If we take advantage of the situation and pursue it, we can hope to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop!"
At this point, Bai Lian frowned fiercely and said worriedly: "But boss, what should we do if the other party's Pegasus troops come? Once we all attack, our city will..."
Why…
Sighing slightly, I said helplessly: "Don't you think... do you think it will be useful if we stay here? Although I don't know why their Pegasus troops haven't arrived yet, but even if we stay to resist, will it have any practical effect? ?”
After listening to my words, Bai Lian shook his head sadly. Once the enemy's air force appears, we will have no way to fight against it. Even if we all stay in the city, it will be of no use!
boom! boom! boom…
After some adjustments, the enemy's army finally pressed towards our city wall again. Seeing the overwhelming army pressing towards us with neat steps, Bai Lian and I couldn't help but nodded at the same time and decided to do what I said. strategy to do it!
Soon, Bai Company quickly dispatched two troops to defend on the left and right, and then issued an order to the troops on the front, telling them not to attack and let the enemy in, while the soldiers on both sides tried their best to block the enemy on the line of the city wall!
Following Bai Lian's orders one after another, the heaven-defying warriors began to move in an orderly manner, skillfully setting up three lines of defense. At the same time... the mage troops had begun to accumulate magic power, preparing to launch a devastating attack on the enemies who entered the city wall. .
Soon, the enemy's army pressed under the city. There were loud shouts of killing on both sides of the city, but the front was quiet, with no movement at all, as if it was an unguarded city.
Facing such a strange scene, the enemy's attacking troops couldn't help but froze, but then, urged by the rapid drums from behind, they launched another attack on the empty city wall.
Kill!
Amidst the shouts of killing, the enemy's large troops rushed towards the city wall along the ropeway they had laid out last time. Soon... rows of enemies climbed onto the city wall along thousands of ropeways, but the next moment... They fell into deep fear. Opposite them, about 300 steps away from the city wall, countless city defense crossbows were pointed at them accurately. Looking at the siege crossbows, they saw thick crossbows. !
Boom!
With a heart-shaking muffled sound, a rain of arrows on the first floor, parallel to the ground and more than one meter above the ground, whizzed out. Suddenly... the enemy who had just stepped on the front wall was immediately hit by the powerful crossbow of the city guard. It was so powerful that it flew back in the air and flew more than ten meters outside the city wall before falling downwards.
Boom! Boom! Boom…
The sound of the city-defending crossbows did not stop. The three city-defending crossbow attack lines were staggered and fired endlessly at the city wall. Even if someone occasionally escaped one round of arrows, they could not stop the second round. , one by one fell to death on the city wall.
There were also a few powerful enemy soldiers who managed to survive several rounds of arrow rain, but... when they came within 200 steps of the city's defensive crossbows, the mage troops began to attack again. Thousands of magics attacked at the same time, even if they were large. The swordsman may not dare to fight head-on, let alone these soldiers who are only slightly powerful! The frontal war was going on with a one-sided massacre.
