Those military officials felt this way even more, and when Yu Zai looked at these people, he murmured in his heart, and suddenly said: "In fact, terrain has a lot to do with fighting. Don't think that what I say is not what people listen to. If you listen to it, If I tell you, your wars will go more smoothly in the future."
The military ministers looked at each other, and then said: "You people, if you can't remember the complicated remarks I said before, then you can just remember that the topography of the world has 'tong', 'hang', 'branch', ' The six basic terrains of "passage", "danger" and "far" are what I said before. High-level terrain is composed of multiple secondary terrains..."
Ruanzai asked the people next to him to carry the big sand table, and soon he got it back.
This large clay sand table is composed of many "models". The clay models form mountains and canyons. Each wooden board is approximately one meter square in length and width. On the wooden board, individual "mountains", "plateaus", " "Canyon", "river"...
"This is my figurine..."
Yes, a fully assembled figure of high mountain terrain, Wen Ming’s field trip, all hand-painted and made!
After a short splicing, the terrain sandbox is assembled!
I'll form the mountain!
Everyone sat close here, and those who couldn't see the sand table ran to distant places and stood on tiptoes to watch from a high place.
........
The great Gugu wakes up.
Even if Mamazai was taken away by the little red horse, Gugu would never leave Mamazai, but Mamazai suddenly took it and Jiaozi out of the backpack pocket and placed them in the large terrain sandbox.
This thing is called a terrain sand table. In the past, Wen Ming, who liked to shout, made this thing. Gu Gu still remembered that Mama Zai seemed to have used this thing to teach many people.
So today, is Mamazai going to use Gugu to teach?
Guzi looked at Yuzai, who lit a place with a branch. After Jiaozi and Gugu communicated in the secret language of "jijijigugu", they also ran to their places.
........
Ruanzai took the branch and pointed at two small yellow chickens in the open area, and said to everyone:
"Any area where we can go and the enemy can come is called 'passage', which means 'passage' to each other. Do you understand?"
"Thong is open space, but there are rolling areas, even plains have rolling areas."
Everyone nodded and said that this is not difficult. Don't treat us as stupid people. Our IQs are much higher than stupid people. Fighting from a high position will increase our morale by 1.
"Then in the 'tong-shaped' area, we should first occupy the open and sunny highlands and keep the roads for transporting food open. This will be beneficial to the battle."
Following Yu Zai's story, Jiao Zi ran to an open highland and then ran back and forth along the road.
Yuzai points to the next location:
"Any area where it is possible to move forward but difficult to return is called a 'hang'. In a hanging-shaped area, if the enemy is not prepared, we can win by surprise and assault."
"For example, there are cliffs, roads in the mountains, and another kind of path between valleys... This kind of road, let me think about it, let's call it Ziwu Valley."
Our army captured a 1/2 Gugu and used [Assault].
Under the command of Yu Zai, Gu Gu made a surprise attack along a path, but got stuck because his butt was too fat. There was laughter all around, but Gu Gu still managed to get out and patted Jiao Zi.
vivid.
Ruzai immediately followed the story of Gu Gu’s butt stuck:
"Look, Gugu's butt was stuck just now, so if the enemy is on guard, they can't win by attacking, and it's difficult to return, this will be disadvantageous!"
People around me said, "If you teach like this, I won't feel sleepy!"
Yuzai continued to order the two chicks to the predetermined area:
"Next, any area where our army is unfavorable for attacking and the enemy is unfavorable for attacking is called a 'branch'. On this kind of terrain, although the enemy is tempting us with benefits, we should not attack. Instead, we should lead the army to pretend to retreat and lure the enemy to half of the attack. It will be advantageous to return to the army to counterattack when the time comes."
"This branch...look, for example, this is a big river. Gugu and Jiaojiao are on both sides of the river. Whoever crosses the river first will be attacked by the other party. In this cross-section area, whoever is the first to be a sandbag."
"So if you don't move, I won't move either. Let's go home and find our own mothers."
Gugu and Jiaojiao stood on the sand table, looking at each other across the broken mud ditch.
Yuzai continued to point to a canyon
"This is a "pass". In this kind of terrain, we should occupy it first and block the pass with heavy troops to wait for the enemy's arrival. If the enemy has occupied the pass first and guarded it with heavy troops, we should not attack. If the enemy has not Defend the pass with heavy troops, then you can attack."
"When I was in Hongzhou, I built Chongyong Fortress in the mountains of Datang using the local terrain. It was a pass that blocked Sanmiao's attack. This is the 'artificial terrain' I mentioned earlier."
"There are two types of terrain: natural and artificial. Man-made cities, villages, Jindu, dams, altars, and even war boats united to block the river are all artificial terrain. Also, I told the Shang tribe before to let them go Managing swamps and building dams also means the same thing.”
Gugu climbed up a city wall model and shook his wings vigorously at Jiaojiao, which meant shooting with a bow.
Bang bang bang!
Jiaojiao also cooperated and fell down.
After Yuzai finished speaking, he told about the next terrain. First, Gugu was placed on the high ground and Jiaojiao was placed on the low place.
"In dangerous areas, if our army occupies it first, we must control the open and sunny high ground and wait for the enemy to attack us; if the enemy occupies it first, we must withdraw and do not attack it."
After Ruanzai finished speaking, he placed Gugu and Jiaojiao on both sides of the sand table. Jiaozi also raised his little wings to say hello to Gugu.
"The last one is in remote terrain. In this kind of area, the terrain of both the enemy and us is the same, so it is not suitable to challenge. It is very disadvantageous to forcefully ask for a battle. For example, the emperor and the regent once said that they would attack Zong, Wei, and Xu Ao, but the regent did not allow the emperor to attack, and said that the three of them are small states between Peng Ai. This is because they are too far away and are not worth attacking. If we attack, it may be half the result with half the effort."
With the vivid help of the two chickens, the military officials also fully understood the terrain described by Yu Zai, and the terrain mentioned by Yu Zai all came from the terrain chapter of "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu.
Many people think that Sun Tzu only has thirty-six strategies, but in fact that is just the essence of it. In Sun Tzu's Art of War, in addition to the terrain chapter, there are also nine ground chapters and a march chapter, which involve countless topography and landforms.
"When encountering swamps and salt-alkali lands, leave quickly. If you meet the enemy in a swamp, you must seize a favorable area near aquatic plants and backed by woods..."
"Before crossing the river, if you judge that you will encounter the enemy, you should station yourself far away from the river to prevent being flooded. People who have fought with the Gonggong clan should know this method..."
"If you want to fight the enemy decisively, don't choose to form troops near the water, unless your surname is Han..."
