Chapter 682

Lu que remembers what his mentor, Brigitte, said when he taught him the art of war. At that time, Brigitte once said, "for the chief general, war is no longer a contest of physical strength, but a contest of intelligence and calculation. The art of war came into being in such a contest and has been constantly improved with the change of the form of war."

The longer he has been leading the army alone, the more deeply he understands this sentence. For those who are handsome, those who are inferior use force, those who are middle use strategy, and those who are superior use power. Many people hope that they will roar back and forth on the battlefield and break through the enemy. Such a person seems to be powerful, but he is definitely not the commander in chief. He is just a general in charge.

And in Lu's view, if a war evolves into a situation where all the commanders need to take up arms and fight on the battlefield, it is a dereliction of duty. And history has also proved this point. Nine out of the ten famous generals recorded in historical books are those who plan as a whole in the middle, and even among the ancient famous generals, there are a few weak people who have no power to bind a chicken. But these people all make the world marvel.

Therefore, Lu que is more used to holding the key to victory in his hand before the war, while the war itself is just evolving his deduction and expectation in reality. Take the battle of Nanli as an example. He was invincible from the moment he gave up the quick fight. Now he is going to use the national power of Da Qian and the army of more than one million troops of the seven legions in southern Xinjiang to force Nanli into a place of no return.

To tell you the truth, Lu que really wants to see what way Nanli Wang Liyong can break the situation when he stops at Xiaogushan and delays. After all, the longer the time goes on, the more unfavorable it will be for Nanli. If he really waits for the Yulin army, Fengxiang army and Feng Xiangyun to enter Nanli's hinterland, Nanli will never have a chance to turn over.

Lu Kuo has been looking forward to meeting an opponent who is equally matched on the battlefield. This is not about national strength or military power, but an opponent who can really be resourceful and open to fight with him.

Since he joined the army of Da Qian, Lu que has experienced three major battles: the battle of destroying the lion army, the battle of Tianxing and the battle of beast tide. But in the three world wars, Lu que did not meet a rival who could compete with him.

Let's not worry about the battle of animal tide. In the war of Tianxing, Daqian sent troops when Tianxing Wang Hong died and the country was in chaos. Before sending troops, he won Nanli and Hebei counties. Huxiao and Fengfeng attracted Nanli's attention to the Ning'an River, cutting off the possibility of Nanli rescuing Tianxing. What Yan Tuohai and Qiu Xu of Tianxing can do in the battle of Tianxing is to delay the extinction of Tianxing as far as possible, because Tianxing has no capital to compete with Da Qian since the moment of Tianxing civil strife.

Qiu lie, the commander-in-chief of the crazy lion army, was supposed to be the best opponent. However, Lu que was only a temporarily appointed general at that time, with only 3000 troops. He was not the same level opponent as Qiu lie, who led the 200000 crazy lion army. Later, the lion army lost in xiaoqingshan, the biggest reason is not that he dug up the Huangyan River, but that the star king urged Qiu lie. If it wasn't for the order of the heavenly star king to let Qiu lie return to his country as soon as possible, he would never have been defeated so soon.

Therefore, if Lu que wants an opponent who will not be bound by his own hands and can fight with all his heart, he is the only one left. He is the king of Nanli, and no one can restrain him. The rest depends on his military strategy and whether he can become a real opponent.
