The army struggles for profit, and the army struggles for danger. It is better to raise the army for profit; If you compete for benefits by entrusting the army, you will donate a lot. Therefore, following the trend is a rush, everywhere day and night. Walking all the way, striving for a hundred miles, catching three generals, the strong is the first, and the tired is the eleventh. If you strive for profit in fifty miles, you will be a general, and the law will be half done; Three miles is good, then two thirds is good. Therefore, the army will die without baggage, food and commission.
To annotate ...
"The army strives for profit, and the army strives for danger."
Cao Cao commented: "Good people are rewarded and bad people are in danger."
Zhang pre-commented: "The wise fight for profit, while the mediocre fight for danger. A wise man is straightforward, but a fool is ignorant. "
This is what we say, those who are in trouble will not, those who are in trouble will not be difficult, and those who can fight will win benefits; If you don't argue, you will throw yourself into a dangerous place instead. For example, Zhao She said last time that he marched for two days and one night for profit, because he knew how to be circuitous and straight, and he could make people do things for others and know the date and place of the war. For him, it is "fighting for profit." If he didn't have so many performances to confuse Qin Jun, he would have left in a hurry, right in the middle of the encirclement of the people, and the army was in danger.
So many of the same things, we see that others are so beautiful, and we are doing the same thing ourselves, so we fold them all in. That's because people are different and the preparations behind them are different.
"It is better to fight for the army; If you fight for the army, you will donate a lot. "
"Raising the army" and "raising the army" are all. The whole army moved with equipment, military strength, armor, equipment, hay and trench. "Not as good as", then the action speed is slow and you can't catch up. Therefore, at the critical moment, we must take the road without trenches. This is called "trusting the army to make profits", and "trusting" means abandoning the trench and moving forward lightly. "Then donate the trench" and donate it to others. I wonder who donated it. Anyway, I just lost it.
"Because of this, day and night are everywhere, and when we go all the way, we can compete for a hundred miles, so we can catch three generals, the strong first, the tired later, and the eleventh method."
"Roll up your armor", roll up your armor and move forward lightly. "Everywhere, day and night", traveling day and night without rest, rushing for profits, the generals of the left, middle and right armed forces will all be captured. Why? If you March a hundred miles without rest, you will arrive strong and fall behind in poor health. They arrived, about one-tenth of the soldiers could arrive first, and the big army became a small one, where it was eaten by the enemy. The enemy can still wait there, and our tired soldiers will be fed up one by one, and he will eat one by one.
The battle of Feishui, which I learned earlier, is said to be that 80,000 people in Xie Xuan defeated 800,000 troops in Fu Jian. In fact, although the total strength of Fu Jian is 800,000, 800,000 troops have not yet arrived and the assembly has not been completed. There are still many on the way. The history books don't record how many people arrived at the battlefield. But it was Xie Xuan who got the information from Zhu Xu and knew that his army had not arrived yet, so he quickly attacked.
In ancient March, thirty miles was a shed, which was the normal marching speed of a day, that is, walking thirty miles. Double the road, double the road, March 60 miles. "Day and night", walking all night at night, plus forty miles. A hundred miles for profit means marching a hundred miles a day and a night. As mentioned earlier, Zhao She's emergency March for two days and one night may reach 160 Li. Then according to the art of war, he was captured.
What shall we do? He stopped and camped 50 miles away from the enemy. First, he waited for the people behind him to eat and rest. Second, he left 50 miles for the enemy to wait for you.
"If you fight for fifty miles, you will get the general, and the law will be half done."
This article, Zhao She is for Qin Jun. Qin Jun marched five miles, but it was halfway. Only half of the people could arrive first, so the general was appointed, and the vanguard troops would be frustrated.
"Three miles for profit, two-thirds."
March at a normal speed, even if it is 30 miles, only one third will arrive first, or one third will fall behind.
"Therefore, the army died without baggage, without food, and without a commission."
"trench", equipment, food, clothing, materials, are called trench; "Entrusted product" is also a kind of material wealth. Therefore, this army is actually very fragile. Without the trench, food and supplies, it will die. In the Korean War, without winter clothes and bedding, the whole camp would freeze to death on the ground.
There are three reasons for this paragraph.
First, it is not difficult for those who are difficult to meet. It's good for smart people, but it's a dead end for fools. If you know what it is, don't think that others can do it, and I can do it.
Second, marching is a part of fighting, even more important than fighting. Sun Tzu's Art of War also says that camping is part of the battle. When and where to camp is even more decisive than fighting. When it comes to war, the victory or defeat is decided by marching and camping. Zhao She's victory over Qin Jun was decided by marching and camping.
Napoleon famously said, "March is war, and the talent of war is the talent of sports." He specializes in marching speed. The traditional March was 70 steps a minute, but he increased it to 120 steps a minute. So he fought not by soldiers' guns, but by their legs. There is also a special general who can March, that is, Su Yu. He knows the most cunning strategy. He has a map of the whole war zone in his head. When he crosses it, he can always descend from heaven.
We say marching is part of the battle and camping is part of the battle. If you push forward, you will find that training is also a part of the battle, even more important than the battle itself. Sweat more in peacetime and shed less blood in wartime.
In this way, we will find that the most important thing is the battle itself, and everything has been decided before. But what we usually read, hear and see are stories about fighting, some stories about marching, few stories about camping and almost no stories about training, because there are no stories about training.
So kung fu is where there is no story. This is what Sun Tzu's Art of War said: "A good fighter is ignorant and nameless, and he has no courage and no plan."
Real heroes have no stories.
Third, the army is fragile, very fragile, and anyone who doesn't pay attention will die. The strongest in the world is also the weakest in the world. When we feel strong, we should be more careful to see if we are actually very fragile.
