Chapter 1213

Ang Lee feels that anyone who has the idea of seclusion is escaping from reality, escaping the tediousness and helplessness of reality, and escaping some troubles that he is tired of but can't solve.

They may be lamenting the injustice of the world, lamenting the corruption and incorrigibility of the court, but they themselves have no ability to solve these things, so they are out of sight and out of mind, and they leave the court directly and go to the mountains to live in seclusion, so all the troubles in the world have nothing to do with him.

This kind of escapism also has a lot of helplessness, which is the helplessness of the hermit after he can't change this unjust society, and it is a sigh after despair.

However, no matter what, it can't change a reality, that is, they are indeed escaping, and many people who can achieve seclusion are also talented and wealthy people, so as to support all the material bases they need for seclusion, if there is nothing, the hermit starves to death, if a rural villager, saying that he is a hermit in the mountains, this will be laughed out of the big teeth, the same people who live in the mountains and wilderness, talented and rich people, it can be called seclusion, if it is a poor small farmer in the mountains, They live in the same place, but that can't be called seclusion.

Because the old peasants stay in the mountains and wilderness, in order to farm the land, in order to support themselves, leaving the land, it is difficult for the old peasants to survive, this is to survive in the struggle, and most of the hermits do not need to use farming to maintain their normal survival, so they are called hermits, these two are essentially different.

Generally, in ancient times, some of the people who chose to live in seclusion were real seclusion, the purpose was to escape from reality, and some were fake seclusion, and they mainly lived in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain, in order to attract the attention of the imperial court, and then embark on the coveted career path.

In short, seclusion, although for a different purpose, is at least not so noble, not as good as it is depicted in poetry.

As soon as he heard that Li An actually had the idea of seclusion, Lao Guo said with a smile: "Li Shilang should forget it!" People all over the world can live in seclusion, but Li Shilang can't, His Majesty will definitely not agree, and the best place to live in seclusion in the city, in the capital, is the best place, and it is convenient to deal with anything, besides, seclusion is not interesting, and it will be lonely after a long time. ”

Lao Guo is a person who does not want to live in seclusion, he feels that seclusion is no good, he will be lonely and bored after a long time, he seems to be a person who wants to be lively.

For example, people living in the city always want to go to a beautiful place in the countryside to live in seclusion and live a paradise-like life, while people living in the mountains always want to see the outside world, always looking forward to the life of people in the city, and feel that living in the city is the ideal way of life.

There are also people who live by the sea, think that the scenery of the desert will be spectacular, but people living in the desert, even the basic water source is difficult to guarantee, life is very difficult, it is not a place where normal people can live, the same way, people who live by the sea every day, also do not feel how beautiful the sea is.

The difference in living environment leads to different people having different needs, that is, they always envy others, always feel that the place where others live is better than their own, and always live in a situation of envy of others.

In fact, every way of life has great limitations, and any kind of lifestyle, after a long time, will feel bored, which will make people want to change all these thoughts and thoughts.

Seclusion is one of the changes, and there is tourism, seclusion is a complete change, and tourism is a temporary change, a temporary change in one's lifestyle.

"I just said it casually, and I don't really want to learn from others to live in seclusion, think about myself, it's really difficult to live in seclusion, and no one in the court will agree, hey! Excellent and talented people also have troubles! Hitting him is really inseparable from me now. ”

Li An said with a wry smile.

Although Ang Lee already has everything, it can be said that he wants the wind to be windy and rainy, and he basically has everything that a terrific character can have, but unfortunately this still can't stop the arrival of troubles, no matter how awesome a character is, there are times when there are troubles, and Ang Lee naturally can't be an exception.

"Li Shilang, let's not talk about these unhappy things, let's still study how to fight this raid tomorrow, in order to avoid casualties on both sides, what to do in case of an unexpected situation, these must be studied in advance, so as not to rush when we encounter an unexpected situation, so that our soldiers and horses will have casualties."

Lao Guo said.

Li An nodded, and said: "Avoiding casualties is the most important thing, there is nothing more important than avoiding casualties, if it is difficult to do both, it is natural to avoid casualties in our army, these horse thieves should know each other, if there are horse thieves who try to resist, then immediately attack the horse thieves who take the lead in resisting, absolutely to ensure the safety of our soldiers, even if a living horse thief can't be caught, it can't make the soldiers pay the price of their lives, however, the probability of this happening is very low, as long as our army suddenly rushes out, These horse thieves must be frightened, frightened horse thieves, where do they still have the courage to fight with our army, it should not be a cause for concern, and when tomorrow comes, everything will be settled, haha! ”

"Okay, according to what Li Shilang said, come, let's eat vegetables! Don't talk about that, haha! This carp tastes so good! It's really good, it's a rare delicacy, you must eat a little more. ”

Lao Guo said.

For dealing with these horse thieves, everyone is naturally full of confidence, after killing the main force of the horse thieves in one fell swoop, the remaining horse thieves are no longer worried, but when dealing with the main force of the horse thieves, the guards under Li An's command suffered a lot of casualties, although compared with the results of the battle, such casualties are nothing, but for Li An, even if it is just the loss of a guard, it is an intolerable thing, Li An cannot tolerate this kind of thing, so when dealing with the remaining horse thieves, he deliberately appeared so cautious, went around most of the circle to set up an ambush, in order to make the long-distance tired horse thieves have no power to resist, and then it is convenient for the officers and soldiers to capture these horse thieves who have no power to resist in one fell swoop, this can be regarded as the ideal victory of Li Anzhong, a flawless victory, which people in this era dare not pursue, but Li An dares to pursue this kind of perfection, and feels that as long as he is well prepared, he can do it.

Zero casualties in battle, the ultimate goal pursued by a certain great country in later generations, no one dared to pursue it in any ancient society, but Ang Lee felt that as long as the situation was not very urgent, he could try to pursue zero casualties, through advanced equipment, strict training, and wise command, to achieve the ultimate goal.

There are not many people who support the idea of zero casualties proposed by Ang Lee, of course, this is also because Ang Lee has not widely publicized this idea, many people are not very clear, and they don't know how to achieve zero casualties, even if they know, most people will not believe it, or feel that it is not necessary at all, the difficulty of achieving it is a little too great, it is difficult to achieve this requirement, it is not difficult to fight bandits in ordinary times, but if you meet the elite of a strong country, how to maintain zero casualties, this is simply impossible.

In addition, since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, ordinary poor children began to enter the army to serve, and joining the army to fight is no longer all a matter of noble children, especially the pawns who rush to the front, generally the children of poor families, the casualty rate of these pawns is very high, but after all, they are ordinary poor people, and the death of a few is not much loss for the entire empire, and the leaders of the empire will not feel distressed. An order to attack is likely to cause tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of casualties, anyway, it is not he who died, the soldiers are dead and wounded, not only will he be fine, but he can even get a high reward from the imperial court, thus creating an allusion to the success of ten thousand bones.

It is too cruel to sacrifice the lives of so many soldiers for the sake of a relatively important border city, in fact, there should be a better way, and it is not a good idea to let the soldiers under his command die at any time.

Of course, the premise of pursuing zero casualties at any time is to have equipment support, the main reason why a large country in later generations dared to engage in zero casualties is because they have strong equipment support, with a strong strength that is far stronger than the opponent, while striking the opponent, they can protect themselves well from being attacked by the opponent, this strong strength is the premise of their pursuit of zero casualties, but it is not really zero casualties, after the real fight, there are still a lot of casualties, but, relatively speaking, This casualty is really too insignificant, giving people the feeling that there are no casualties, compared with the tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of casualties in the previous war, the casualties of dozens and hundreds of people are really a drizzle, and they are not worth mentioning at all.

If Datang's soldiers and horses want to pursue zero casualties, the best way is naturally to improve their equipment, and only with a powerful equipment that the enemy cannot fight can they achieve this seemingly impossible goal.

For example, the Tang Dynasty soldiers and horses who attacked Shibao City paid a heavy price, and the main reason for this is because the weapons used for siege are too backward, and Shibao City is a fortified city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so if you want to capture this fortified city, the only way is to fill it with the lives of soldiers, and it is not uncommon for this battle to be fought and tens of thousands of casualties will be lost.

But if this army has more powerful weapons, the situation is completely different, the casualties will never be very large, as long as the artillery bombardment opens a big hole, the soldiers and horses defending the city will only have to surrender, in this way, it will naturally be able to greatly reduce the casualties, and even, it is not impossible to have no casualties at all, after all, if the enemy surrenders, there will naturally be no casualties, this is called a soldier who surrenders without a fight, this is the highest level of the art of war.

Therefore, the zero-casualty battles that Ang Lee mentioned are non-existent battles in many cases, or the battle ends just after it starts, so there are naturally not many casualties.

Being able to avoid a war that was meant to happen is itself a type of zero casualties, and moreover, zero casualties at the highest level.

Since the plan has been thoroughly studied for a long time, and the situation of the horse thief is also well understood, in this case, there is naturally no need to put too much energy on the study of tactics, as long as the army attacks tomorrow, it is basically a complete victory, and the horse thief will not be the opponent of the Tang Dynasty soldiers and horses at all, the gap is too big, and there is no comparison at all.

Dozens of miles away, the horse thief's speed of action is much faster, because the team of people in front of them abandoned half of the treasure, so naturally there is no reason to continue to walk very slowly, if in this case they are still caught up by the people behind, then it is a little too much, and their own hearts will not be able to pass, so, the one-eyed team of centaurs is desperately moving forward.

The people and horses behind are naturally embarrassed to be pulled away too much, their current burden is the same as the team in front, if they are pulled away very much, it will appear that they are very incompetent, after all, they all eat the same meal, why should they be worse than others, one is a little ghost in his heart, he is desperately speeding up the speed of travel, and the people and horses behind him are not weak, which causes them to travel twice as fast as usual, and they are getting closer and closer to the Lushui River Valley.

In the evening, the foal felt that his body was more tired, which was almost more tired than throwing away the treasure, they were gambling, gambling with the team behind, wanting the team behind to take a good look at how strong their strength was, they were walking so slowly before, it was entirely because they carried too much treasure, and now, everyone's burden is the same, and the speed naturally cannot be the same as before, otherwise, they will lose themselves, but what they didn't expect is that the team behind them has been biting them, The speed of travel has actually increased, not slower than them at all, and they who do not admit defeat naturally can't let people see jokes, so they can only rush forward desperately, and if they go too quickly, they will naturally be more tired.

"Little Brother Pony, did you hear that? There are pheasants crowing, this road is really evil, every time you go to a campsite, you can always meet pheasants, there are really many pheasants on this road, more than the pheasants in our Qiwu Mountain. ”

The fat man spoke.

The foal nervous for a moment and said, "It's a good thing that pheasants are many!" So we'll have game to eat, fatty, and I'll go and get you a pheasant." ”
