The essence of guerrilla warfare is not to wander or kill the enemy.

It's about the cost.

I'm just hitting you in one of your weak spots, and you're going to have to project your power everywhere, and as long as you can't destroy my people, then you'll have to keep it that way.

Everyone knows how painful this situation is for the guerrilla side.

When you eat, always carry a gun to protect yourself.

When you fetch water, always hold a gun to protect yourself.

When you're tuba......

The most embarrassing thing is that even when you find a beautiful beauty and put your arms around her and snap it......

That's not all.

If there are really enemies everywhere, no matter what you do, you need to send more people to do things.

Delivering a message and sending a letter, it was originally a matter of finding a child, but now it must be a few fat and strong men who are fully armed, who will pay for their travel expenses, food expenses, and lost work expenses?

The transportation of food and materials, originally only needed a few carts, a few drunk coachmen, now, must be a brigade of soldiers, these guys on a business trip is naturally a lot of expenses, and even a lot of things to transport materials under the black, not to mention that in the later stage of the Anti-Japanese War, Tubalu, with the assistance of some "active" people, wantonly bought arms in the hands of the Japanese army, and even made a ghost version of the equipment of the eight roads were misunderstood.

When the cost of conquest is much greater than the benefits of conquest, the outcome of the war does not matter.

Similarly, although Zheng Zhun was well prepared, how to garrison after conquering Hanoi, how to win over the gentry, how to divide and attack, how to divide and disintegrate, the head of his thoughts was the Tao, but what he didn't expect was that he fell into the vast sea of people's war on the road.

Even if it's a "homegrown" war, but non-specialization is always not good.

If you look at those who describe the ancient Chinese military generals, they often have studied geography since childhood, and when they go out to visit, they pass by a place, and they study geography there, where they can station troops, where they can use to get water, and where they can ambush.

This is also in ancient times, when there were no detailed maps, no sand tables, and no satellite cloud maps, and a general wanted to learn how to command a large army in a vast land, so how should he do it?

All kinds of geographical knowledge are not so easy to learn, but in the Art of War, there is a large chapter about the terrain.

For example, Deng Ai, who many people know, is from a hard background, but he is diligent and studious, Deng Ai likes military affairs, every time he sees mountains and rivers, he has to survey the terrain there, point out the military camp premises, and he doesn't mind being ridiculed by others.

Coincidentally, among the top ten generals of the Republic, there is also one, who can be called a military idiot, one day with his wife on a trip to the beach of flowers, passing by a café, the general frowned, muttered for a long time, Mrs. was very curious, asked, the general replied, this café is excellent!

Madame was shocked, full of thought that she had married a reckless man, and she couldn't imagine that she could even understand this petty bourgeoisie and pretend to be elegant, so she asked again, and the general replied drunkenly, this café is located in a troublesome place, extending in all directions, if it is transformed, the roof is built with fortifications, and the crane gun is erected, which can really radiate the street, although a hundred times the enemy is helpless!

It can be seen that those who have come to do extraordinary things and set up extraordinary honors must have their ability and reason.

The question is, is Zheng Zhun this kind of person?

For those who are small countries and widows, how many people in the whole country can read and understand Sun Tzu's Art of War, Sun Bin's Art of War, Wei Xuanzi, Ji Xiaoxin Shu and other books? Although there has been a constant war in the past few years, it is basically in the stage of brainless warfare like the Iran-Iraq war in later generations, and there is no technology or command art.

The Zheng family itself is a subordinate of the Mo family of the previous dynasty, relying on disgusting tricks similar to Sima Yi to seize the country, it can be said that it is not a country that is captured from the battlefield, this is almost a symbol of improper position, and in the same way, Zheng Zhun's military literacy is like that.

Even if he is a native of Vietnam, his understanding of the local geography is not deep enough, which is equivalent to a Hebei person may not know the geography of Hebei, and a Hunan person cannot know every inch of the mountains in Hunan.

Compared to the Hanoi side that got guidance and was prepared in advance, Zheng Zhun's battle was bitter, first of all, his soldiers, when they found out that they were chasing harassers and might die, they were naturally afraid of everyone, even if a few henchmen were killed on the spot and were forced to charge, they were unheard of, move forward quickly, be careful not to have any traps under your feet!

And these harassments, if you don't fight back, you can't let others bully.

I also have to say that the reason why the Bald Eagle and the U.S. Emperor can break their heads in Vietnam is that the geography of the mountains and rivers is suitable for guerrilla warfare.

It is not possible to walk quickly, because the soldiers do not have the courage to walk slowly, and they can't walk a few miles a day, and the gunshots that sound from time to time are countless cowards who dare not move lying on the ground.

"You are waiting for the soldiers to eat food, but you are so cowardly, get up, give me up!"

Bigger troubles also appeared, the disadvantages of the strong walls and clear fields, although the loyalty of the people of the Hanoi court in this place suddenly fell to a limit, but it also made Zheng Zhun's ability to collect food, water, and people's coolies to a limit.

A few days later, relying on the grain storage he carried with him, he widened the distance, but unexpectedly, this time it was the grain transport unit in the rear that was attacked.

There is no way around it.

According to Zheng Zhun's self-opinion, the place where his army passed was naturally the desire of the people, and the leading party gathered, and as long as he laid down a place, then he would naturally be safe behind him.

However, the Hanoi side, armed with the ideology of new-style guerrilla warfare, saw one thing, this battle was not a head-on enemy, according to the records of the guerrilla warfare book Sunflower Treasure Book, as long as the time is delayed until after May and June, and the rainy season begins, the thief Zheng Zhun's arms will naturally be ineffective.

It's not more than a hundred days.

The speed of the march is getting slower and slower, and as the soldiers gradually become tired, the enemy is becoming more and more active, although there are countless people in the field who have been counter-raided and killed by Mauser guns, but these sorties are extremely expensive, and the loss of food and water sources is more, and what is eliminated is only a few desperate and poorly equipped dicks.

This is almost a story of bombing a tent with a million-dollar missile, and many emperors of the Central Plains Dynasty in history gathered heavy troops to sweep away the surrounding alien tribes as dead tribes, but they could only get a little booty of broken skin and vomit blood three liters can be compared.

Zheng Zhun's pressure is getting bigger and bigger, he can't think that this is okay, obviously as long as his men and horses line up in formation, aim at the enemy and release their guns, then any opponent will never want to approach, but the enemy will not give you time to fight head-on at all.

Although they sent some sharp soldiers, the Hanoi army, which became more and more proficient, seemed to have found a strategy to restrain Zheng Zhun.

More than a hundred miles of land, it sounds, in later generations it is just a matter of one foot on the accelerator, but in this era, it is by no means a road to access, on this road, there will be countless ravines, dirt mountains and rocky mountains, shallow water grasslands, but it has become a lifeline for Zheng Zhun's army.

And at night, there is no rest, although the Vietnamese side lacks munitions, but by no means lacks some simple gunpowder, although the quality of firecrackers is average, black powder is stupid and coarse benzene type, but in the end it is also gunpowder.

You can't get close to the campsite, but people can set off firecrackers to wake you up, which is a conscience, and it is also what makes Zheng Zhun crazy.

Although he had desperately gone to the rear to urge his unlucky son-in-law to send something over, the son-in-law's reasons were simply too many, the transshipment was insufficient, the transportation capacity was insufficient, there were enemies harassing on the road, and the people who were afraid of death were picking......

As a result, Zheng Zhun actually needed to send people to the rear to escort the grain team, which reduced his manpower for his goal of clearing the road.

In just ten days, the number of people who lost their ability to fight reached a terrible 300 people, you know, Zheng Zhun raised troops this time only 5,000 people, and he was confident that he relied on these 5,000 people to take the capital, and at this time, the 300 people who were killed or wounded not only lost six percent of the cannon fodder, but also the spirit of many companies collapsed.

In the agricultural society of the East, it is almost the time to start a year of spring ploughing, of course, no one has any intention of farming now, and both sides are arresting more people, Zheng Zhun is better, he has money, and he can naturally use the funds supported by his son-in-law to hire people to do things.

Of course, he didn't notice that a lot of the money sent down was made by the Han merchants in the port with various commodities, and it was naturally smoothed out when they came and went.

The weather is getting warmer and hotter, and it also makes him miserable.

Again, only people are the first factor that determines the direction of war.

Zheng Zhun rode a tiger hard, but when another batch of grain trucks was desperately attacked, he finally couldn't hold on.

After the order to retreat was issued, it was a matter of jubilation, but no one had much high morale, and the concept of guerrilla warfare beyond the times was made, although countless mistakes were made in the implementation, but the essence of guerrilla warfare was very easily revealed, resulting in Zheng Zhun being unable to give full play to his strengths, and could only consume his strength empty, and really drag the fat thin and the thin to death.

The process of drawdown was not smooth.

Although there will be no more traps in the circuit, it is another moment when the command order is lost.

If it is a well-trained army, it can also be ordered to prohibit, but it is a unit that is encouraged by money, and after the beaten person turns on his back and loses motivation, who does not know that he can rest safely and comfortably if he returns to the side of Hongji early?

Under this temptation, although most people are in a hurry, those who fall behind are really left behind.

By the time Zheng Zhun came to his senses and sent people to contain the stragglers, more than 30 people were either dead or seriously injured, and they were no longer able to do so, and there were even cases of being captured and captured.

The only good thing is that the road is wide and there are no tramples.

The straight-line distance that Zheng Zhun's people walked out did not exceed eighty miles at most, a very small distance, but if you really calculate it, this is not a straight-line distance on the map, but nine curves and eighteen bends, which need to go over mountains and mountains, and sometimes have to go around the bends, which is not easy to walk.

The closer you get to Hongji, the more people who will go out of business and die, and even fall there without anyone to take care of, and even the military uniforms and equipment on your body are not very interested, and they just want to hurry back to a safe place.

When he returned to Hongji, Zheng Zhun's 5,000 men, that is, 1,500 riflemen, only had more than 1,000 men and horses left, and there were even more people who fled and died.

All this happened without mass destruction of the enemy.

Fortunately, Zheng Zhun has been in the army for a long time, and he also has a record of suffering losses in the south, so he can also hold on.

"Bastard coward, don't dare to fight, it's just a trick."

Such a similar insult took place in Hanoi a few hours later.

"Listen, what is Zheng Zhun thinking, this guy who has listened to the devil's bewitchment!"

A soldier in a monkey training uniform, covered in wounds and dying, of course, seemed to have been treated, kneeling there, while the people around him, just by looking at the clothes, knew that they were local Vietnamese bureaucrats, wealthy businessmen, and big landowners.

The words that the soldier said intermittently were something that was taught by word and deed during the Hongji period, but it was just the words of entering Hanoi City, one person and one eldest lady, eating the quasi-king, drinking the quasi-king, and the quasi-king did not pay for the grain when he came, beat the local tyrants, and divided the fields.

This kind of talk is definitely a double-edged sword, on the one hand, it can boost the morale of Zheng Jung's side, but on the other hand, the people on the Hanoi side are completely crazy.

The landlord of this era is probably equivalent to the landlord of the 21st century, a homeowner who owns 20 houses in the imperial capital is almost more comfortable than the CEO of a listed company, and in fact, he has more wealth and income than him.

In the case of Vietnam, this confrontation has also become more intense, and the first manifestation is the chaotic interior, where there has been almost no moment of peace for hundreds of years, and even if the lord of the country is stable, he must provoke and wage war with the outside world, not only to maintain a standing army and plunder wealth, but also to consume the lives and spirits of the domestic people.

And in the Sunflower Treasure Book, this is also a big killer, Zheng Zhun didn't know what medicine he took, so he actually started the slogan of fighting local tyrants and dividing the fields.

This slogan is similar to the thief leader Li Chuang who rebelled in the Ming Kingdom, but it is more disobedient and has also caused unease among many landowners.

"Now, you all know that the family is unfortunate, a traitor has become a thief, and he has become a scourge, but if he can't be suppressed and let him enter Hanoi City, it will not be a change of dynasty, but a big mess in the world!"

A fat man seemed to be a nursery, but in fact it was really a nursery, and shouted at this time: "I am willing to donate 100 stone to the Milao Army, please kill the traitor Zheng Zhun as soon as possible!" ”
