Siege helper [wé i ché ng d m: yuá n]?
Military terminology explains that the attacker surrounded the enemy guarding the city with some troops, induced the enemy to send troops to rescue, and then annihilated the enemy reinforcements with the main force.
Chapter 5 of Du Pengcheng's "Defending Yan 'an": "Don't you often use the method of' besieged city to help'? "
Explanation: The idiom "besieged city" is just "besieged city for help".
Extended data:
In the military language of the People's Liberation Army, "siege assistance" is called "siege assistance", which means to surround cities or key points with some troops, lure the enemy to reinforce, and concentrate the main force to annihilate and help the enemy in the movement. The purpose is not to attack the besieged enemy, but to help the enemy.
Engels famously said: "Technology determines tactics", and different weapons and equipment have created different tactical styles of an army.
Since the founding of the Red Army and the Eighth Route Army, the PLA has been inferior to its opponents in weapons and equipment. Except for 1979 counterattack against Vietnam, I felt the advantages brought by a powerful weapon and equipment, and there was almost no war without fighting the superior enemy.
Before the founding of New China, the PLA's equipment was mainly light weapons. The technical disadvantage forced the PLA to find a way to "sword is not as good as human fencing is higher than human fencing." With its solid guerrilla warfare skills during the Red Army period, the People's Liberation Army gave full play to the role of mobile warfare and created one miracle after another in the history of war.
The secret of "siege aid" lies in what the ancients called "extraordinary and positive changes". Many wonderful tactics in the history of war are often short-lived, because once they are known by the enemy, they lose their wonderful use. The empty city plan in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is the best example. But why can the tactics of "besieged city to help others" be used repeatedly in the war of liberation? This is because in the tactics of "attacking the city for aid", attacking the city and fighting for aid are a pair of contradictions that are transformed into each other.
As the ancient art of war said, "the change of strangeness and power." The fundamental reason why the army has repeatedly capsized here is that it is not clear whether the PLA wants to attack the city or help. Sun Tzu said, "The war situation is only absurd, and it is impossible to overcome poverty through absurd changes. Strange and positive are born together. If there is an endless cycle, how can we be poor? " The People's Liberation Army's "siege aid" just caught this strange and positive change, and all opponents are under control.
The battle of Qingfengdian is a classic "siege war" of the People's Liberation Army.
1947 10 The Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Field Army launched an attack on the area north of Baoding, which quickly formed a siege of Xu Shui, thus threatening Baoding. Urged by Sun Lianzhong, director of Baoding Suiyuan Department, the 3rd Army stationed in Shijiazhuang quickly left the fortified city and rushed to the north for help. In the Qingfengdian area, it was surrounded by six brigades of the People's Liberation Army's aid troops to China, and all the troops were wiped out. The commander Luo Lirong was captured.
In this campaign, the people's liberation army besieged the city is false, and aiding Vietnam is true. The Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Field Army created a siege with three columns and two brigades, forcing the enemy's third army to come to help. Explain by singularity: besieged city is just, aid is odd, and realize the wonderful strategy of "winning by singularity".
