Now that he thinks about it, Zhao Yu feels that he can succeed is also a fluke. He came to this era, when the country was falling, the political structure was disintegrating, and the army was collapsing, and he was able to reorganize the army and incorporate some modern ideas into it. And the choice of weapons did not go so fast, but selected relatively low-level ballistas and rockets, and improved them. As a result, the smell of blood in the military reform was avoided, and it was successfully implemented in the initial stage.

With the consolidation of his position and the gradual maturity of his politics, Zhao Yu also realized the close relationship between military reform and the social and political system, in order to avoid the danger of political struggle. In order to avoid economic collapse, he had no choice but to retreat and adopt a 'small step' strategy to proceed gradually.

The introduction of modern advanced tactics is also a necessary golden finger for traversers, so can we avoid the difficulties of reform and simply introduce tactics? Zhao Hao also had this idea at the beginning, but he soon found that although this method is not impossible, the risks are also there. Because any method of warfare has a corresponding background of the times. For example, the equipment used at that time, or the terrain, the enemies faced, etc., can be said to be very complicated.

Moreover, there is also a very big gap between the tactics and tactics of different eras, that is, the differences in equipment technology, actual training, combat experience, and command system. If we look at the development of human military history from a macro perspective, an important trend in command is the refinement of the combat functions of the armed forces in units and different arms of the armed forces.

In other words, the development of tactics and tactics is in fact itself a constant change on this basis. Moreover, the implementation of its own tactical tactics also requires long-term training and running-in in combat by the soldiers. Therefore, unless you are facing an enemy whose level is limited, it is actually difficult for the new tactical tactics to play a role quickly.

At the same time, putting many concepts of modern warfare in the context of ancient warfare is actually itself a kind of "anti-heaven" behavior. Because modern warfare was accompanied by the advent of railways, hot air balloons, and telegraphs before the invention of tanks and airplanes, there have already been very subversive changes in terms of troop projection, battlefield intelligence collection, and information transmission compared with ancient times. Therefore, modern warfare and ancient warfare have a gap between the technical times in many tactical concepts.

For example, in ancient war environments, especially before the invention of telescopes. The commander-in-chief of the army basically relied on the limited reconnaissance work before the war and the messengers who traveled between the various departments of the army to constantly report the battle situation to the commander-in-chief. The commander then analyzes this limited information and finally makes a judgment. Therefore, it can be said that under the conditions of ancient warfare, it is practically impossible to make a detailed analysis and judgment of the situation of the war and the army, as in modern warfare.

In addition, under ancient conditions, the commander's grasp of the battlefield situation was often very vague. And the combat habits of the soldiers, coupled with the vague battlefield situation itself, made the ancient armies fight, in most cases, in accordance with the established combat habits. Any so-called tactical "conspiracy" that changes existing combat habits is itself a high-risk act.

Without the combat habits of the army and the experience of the commanders as a correction, the situation on the battlefield tends to become more uncontrollable when "intrigue" is carried out. As long as there is the slightest abnormal movement, the "conspiracy" will suddenly turn into "death". Therefore, if the tactics of modern warfare, which are already based on more advanced command, training, and communication and transportation conditions, are used as a strategy on the ancient battlefield, then the probability of overturning the vehicle is even more conceivable.

Therefore, the use of tactical tactics is by no means casual. This is why Zhao Yu has reorganized and trained the army many times, gradually introduced 'new' weapons, and gradually improved military regulations, rules and regulations in actual combat to adapt to new tactics and tactics.

Of course, Zhao Hao has experienced twists and turns, and at the same time, he has made a lot of jokes. In his previous life, as a military-loving networm, when he talked about ancient military topics, he always couldn't help but talk about those classic battles, big and small, and sometimes he would sigh with emotion, and he couldn't help but worry about the ancients, imagining that if the generals of the defeated side did not use those stupid tricks that led to defeat, they might be able to change history and bring new possibilities.

Zhao Yu sighed at the keystroke, and often put forward the new idea of the "I am smarter than the ancients" series, and heard all kinds of magical legends of the German General Staff in modern times, so he imagined: If the general staff system was popularized in the ancient army, and those generals were equipped with staff officers to give advice, would it be possible to change the outcome of those battles in history?

When he put himself in his shoes, Zhao Yu realized how ridiculous his self-righteousness was, and he also deeply felt that those so-called 'simulation' and 'documentary' involved in ancient military film and television works deception. Only then did I understand that those imperial courts often became the shopkeepers after choosing generals to go on the expedition, and all kinds of affairs after the army went out were handled by the generals themselves, and they were just producers and directors who were shoddy in order to save actors and reduce costs.

But this also gave Zhao Hao an illusion, thinking that the ancient generals had to bear almost all the relevant matters in the process of commanding the battle, and the safety of the entire army was all pinned on the generals alone. Therefore, when discussing some ancient war examples, the idea of "if a group of staff officers is assigned to these generals, these generals will not make such mistakes again." In fact, this idea is very right and very good, but it is a pity that the ancients of the pre-Qin period had already thought of such a good idea.

In the Qin and Han Dynasty military book "Liutao, Longtao, Wang Yi", it is clearly written: "The king and the handsome teacher must have a humerus and wings to become a mighty god...... Therefore, there will be seventy-two people with humeral wings to respond to the way of heaven. This means that when the general goes out on the expedition, he should be accompanied by seventy-two staff assistants. These staff assistants have their own division of labor, and they are responsible for all the tasks that deserve special assignment in ancient military activities, from environmental surveys to grain and grass calculations. That is to say, if conditions permit, the generals in ancient times had to be equipped with staff officers when they went out to fight, unless he had no one available.

In short, Zhao Hao thinks that war itself is actually a very complex social behavior. Therefore, the development of the military is itself a microcosm of social development. No matter how wonderful the writing of the crossing is, and how feasible it seems, it is only after all. And those who are obsessed with using the concept of modern warfare to review ancient wars are essentially nothing more than words on paper......

"Your Majesty, do you need some water?" Wang De saw that His Majesty had been in a daze for a long time looking at the flames in the stove, and reached out to open the lid of the pot to check it.

'Goo, goo......

"Don't open the lid, there is still a lot of soup, this is the time to absorb the flavor, so as not to scatter the taste!" Zhao Yu listened to the sound in the pot, sniffed the aroma emanating from the pot, and waved his hand to stop Wang De.

"Your Majesty is really good at everything, just listen to it and know the fire, and the little one can't learn it in this life!" Wang De said with a smile.

"It's not that you can't hear it, but you're worried that the soup is running out and the pot is dry, so you want to uncover it and take a look at it, so as to feel at ease!" Zhao Yu casually filled in a dry firewood road in each of the two stoves.

"Your Majesty can see it if you think about it carefully, no wonder everything in the world can't be hidden from Your Majesty!" Wang De said in surprise with his mouth wide open.

"Don't be weird, I think you're the one who understands the world!" Zhao Yu saw his appearance and scolded with a smile.

"Hehe, how dare the little one pretend to be a ghost in front of His Majesty, isn't that a big knife in front of Guan Gong!" Wang De didn't care, and said with a smile.

"Alright, let's go and prepare a few more delicate dishes in the dining room, I'm afraid these fish won't have enough for them!" Zhao Yu looked at the dozen or so big men, raised his eyebrows and said.

"Yes, the little one understands, and it will definitely make a few generals happy!" Wang Deshi saluted, and then went down to the deck to give orders in person.

Looking at the back of Wang De's departure, Zhao Yu suddenly realized that it was also a pot, and he could make a decision after listening to it, but Wang De knew that there was still a lot of soup, but he still had to check it, it was nothing more than the difference in status, so he was afraid of misjudgment and did not dare to decide. So in the battle that just ended, I thought it was a bad fight, and blamed the main general's unfavorable plan, is there a similar reason?

Zhao Yu knew that one of the characteristics of ancient warfare was that because there were no high-tech reconnaissance methods such as spy satellites or aerial reconnaissance, the battlefield information that can be summarized as the "fog of war" was not fed back in a timely manner, and the various problems caused by this seriously hindered the generals' understanding of the battlefield situation, which in turn greatly increased the difficulty of their decision-making.

Because, whether it is ancient military reconnaissance methods such as scratching the tongue, finding a guide, or sending scouts, most of what can be obtained is incomplete or even outdated battlefield information. As a result, what is finally presented to the generals is often an outdated or missing battlefield picture of important information, especially time-sensitive information such as enemy movements and traffic conditions, which is often missing or outdated.

In such a situation, if the commander wants to win, he must guess the enemy's movements based on the available information, and then choose the most correct course based on the advice provided by the staff staff, or find a more appropriate response through communication with the staff, and then implement it to the letter. It is also in line with the saying that "both sides of a war make mistakes, and victory belongs to the side that makes fewer mistakes......
