Chapter 53 Talking on Paper 2
Zhao Kuo's military strategy was taught by Zhao She since he was a child. Because he was smart and knowledgeable, his father Zhao She was not an opponent in his daily debate, so he thought that "no one in the world can do it."
After the Battle of Yanyu, Zhao She was among the famous generals and once discussed military affairs with famous generals such as Tian Dan. She made new improvements in military tactics and had a deeper understanding of the dangers on the battlefield.
Although his son Zhao Kuo obtained his true teachings on how to use military force, he even surpassed his strategy.
Zhao Kuo's battle to become famous was the Battle of Maiqiu. He proposed to adopt the strategy of "attacking the heart first" and defeating Maiqiu with wisdom, but Zhao Kuo's martial arts were much worse!
God is fair. Zhao Kuo has a smart and knowledgeable brain, but his body is not very strong, and it can even be said to be weak.
Although he has received special training from Zhao She since childhood and is considered very strong in martial arts, due to insufficient physical strength, there are many unique tricks in his family's martial arts that cannot be used, and his lethality and self-protection ability on the battlefield are insufficient.
On the battlefield, you will win or lose from swords and guns, but no matter whether you are smart or not, the soldiers worship real strong people!
If you have a proper strategy, you can win a war, but martial arts is the ability to save your life on the battlefield. Only by surviving on the battlefield can you enjoy the results of victory!
Zhao She did not participate in many battles in her life. The battle of success was between Yan and Po Qin. Although the battle of wits and courage before the war took a long time, it was endless fun!
But once the war begins, the generals will have no other way to take advantage of the situation except to lead by example, strive forward bravely, implement their own strategic and tactical intentions, and win victory. Zhao She also created a classic example of "the brave will win when they meet on a narrow road"!
Although Zhao She has only experienced a limited number of dangers on the battlefield, he was able to be in danger every time because of his strong martial arts and outstanding wisdom.
Because Zhao Kuo's martial arts are not enough to protect himself on the battlefield, Zhao She did not want his son to go to the battlefield, for fear that he would lose his life, and of course, she was also afraid that he would lose his reputation.
As Zhao She grew older and Zhao Kuo grew up day by day, he decided to convince his son to give up the art of war and at least give up on the battle as the chief general.
That day, he and his son had a showdown, and repeatedly told his son about the dangers on the battlefield, and tried hard to persuade Zhao Kuo not to be a general to go to the battlefield, so as not to lose his life.
Zhao Kuo has been familiar with poetry and books since he was a child and is also a filial piety. Although he was unwilling to do so, he didn't want to go against his father's intentions. However, he learned a lot of military skills and was really unwilling to accept it without having to!
So, Zhao Kuo proposed to have a debate with his father. If he lost, he would not go to the battlefield for life. If he won, he would have the right to choose.
Zhao Kuo's ability to debate is very powerful and has never lost. "Talking about war on paper" is the real "no one in the world can do it!"
Even as a teacher, Zhao She, the debate is only unbeaten. It is difficult to win Zhao Kuo in the debate!
But Zhao She cannot avoid fighting. In that case, suppressing Zhao Kuo alone with his father's identity may not be able to stop Zhao Kuo from going to the battlefield.
As a famous general, if Zhao She becomes serious, even if she cannot win Zhao Kuo in the debate, there is no reason to lose.
This time he convinced Zhao Kuo that he had made every preparation, and of course he was also ready to argue with his son.
It was still the same rule. Zhao Kuo chose a battle example, and the father and son began to argue. Because of the same lineage in military tactics, they can be said to know themselves and their enemies. Both of them were careful and they played the same chess and drums from the beginning.
When the two armies were about to fight in close combat, Zhao She had already transferred Zhao Kuo's main force, but the surprise troops emerged and personally led the army to launch the "beheading operation".
This just hit Zhao Kuo's weakness! Because Zhao Kuo's martial arts lacked enough, he naturally did not escape the fate of being killed.
Zhao Kuo lost this debate, but he was very dissatisfied. He lost in martial arts, not strategy, but he never mentioned the matter of going to the battlefield.
Because Zhao Kuo knew that even if he proposed to go to the battlefield, it would be useless!
With his father's status in the Zhao military, as long as his father is still alive, no one dares to use him, and it is impossible to get the opportunity to go to the battlefield!
His shortcomings in his own martial arts are still very important, and even makes him unable to sleep or eat!
After thinking hard for several months, Zhao Kuo still found a way to make up for it.
As a famous general, Zhao She naturally had the means to rule the soldiers, but asking the soldiers to work hard for him is essential to be kind to the widows of the soldiers.
In Zhao She's fiefdom, he adopted a large number of widows and children of the fallen soldiers. Although they lived a worry-free life, they also had to receive strict education and become useful people.
It was because the soldiers who had relieved their worries that made Zhao She's soldiers cry and were willing to go through fire and water for him, which made Zhao She a famous general in the Warring States Period.
Of course, Zhao She's own martial arts and strategies are also important reasons why the soldiers are willing to follow each other in life and death.
Many of these soldiers and orphans were willing to continue to join the army and gain fame on the battlefield like their fathers.
During the education and training process, although they were unable to learn the secret military techniques and martial arts of the Zhao She family, they could also systematically learn military techniques and martial arts, which was undoubtedly much more powerful than those soldiers from grassroots backgrounds.
However, because they cannot get the best training in military tactics and martial arts, although there are many orphans with the blood of soldiers flowing in their bones and excellent martial arts qualifications, most of them are still unable to become top-level generals, and of course there are some exceptions.
Therefore, even the descendants of these soldiers, even those who are outstanding, can only follow the descendants of the Zhao family and act as subordinates.
Therefore, the Zhao family not only won the love of the soldiers, but also provided a continuous stream of assistants for their descendants. As Zhao She's legitimate son, Zhao Kuo was naturally the object of these people's followers.
Because he obtained the unique skills of his family, although Zhao Kuo was not physically in good condition, his martial arts routines were much better than those of them, so most of them were not his opponents.
Zhao Kuo often practices martial arts with these people, but among these people, there were two orphans with good martial arts qualifications. They were much younger than Zhao Kuo. The martial arts they learned were also ordinary routines, but their martial arts were better than Zhao Kuo.
This situation happened, but Zhao Kuo was not angry but happy because since the last debate, he was defeated by his father with martial arts, he had always wanted to make up for his shortcomings in his low martial arts skills...
The only way he thought of was to find two martial arts guards and charge with him to make up for his weakness of martial arts.
But warriors with high martial arts are not that easy to find. Most of them have followed famous generals as masters. Even if they can be found in the market, they may not be willing to serve you. Therefore, Zhao Kuo has never found a suitable warrior.
