Chapter 61 Post-War Summary
When Li Ping returned to his residence, he found that the two soldiers of Zuo Menggeng who had come yesterday were waiting for him.

Although Li Ping's here is a closed barracks garrisoned independently, and the gate of the barracks is also guarded, but people like Zuo Menggeng's soldiers and Zhao Jin can enter directly without waiting for notification.

Because Li Ping didn't have the capital to let them wait outside, if he dared to play the "Xiliu Camp" set by the famous Western Han Dynasty general Zhou Yafu to show that he is as good as iron, he would be courting death.

After seeing Li Ping, the two soldiers of Zuo Menggeng rushed forward to say hello.

Li Ping wondered what was the matter with them, but the two soldiers of Zuo Menggeng said that they were sent to greet each other face to face, and they had no other mission, and left.

Li Ping was puzzled for a long time, and then he realized it. Maybe it was to see if he was still alive. After all, such things as flashbacks and repeated injuries are very common in this era.

I asked Ma Guang and Liu Xiaohui, the other soldiers who stayed at home. Many people came in the morning, including Shi Ming, Wang Chengwu, Li Shengcai, Zhao Jin, and the maid of Mrs. Zuo Menggeng who came yesterday, but they all asked Just leave.

During lunch, Song Baolai came over to grab a meal. This guy knew that Li Ping's food was good, so he couldn't hold back his mouth.

Because he had just met Gao Lei, Li Ping just remembered that there was an urgent matter that Song Bao needed to deal with quickly.

In this battle, not carrying alcohol is a big failure, a lesson of blood.

There is no effective medicine after infection, so the hope of life is completely handed over to luck!Li Ping still underestimated the harsh environment of this era.He felt that no matter how much food was spent on this thing, a certain amount of reserves must always be maintained.

Li Ping talked about it dryly, but Song Baolai gave Li Ping a critical blow.

According to Song Bao, what is needed to make ethanol is not a little food, but a large amount of food, especially the storage problem of alcohol, which will make it more difficult for them to support the food they are already in short supply.

Although sweet potatoes are a good substitute, the sweet potatoes planted some time ago will take at least two or three months to be harvested, which means that they cannot maintain a certain amount of alcohol reserves at present, and at most they can only produce a little when needed. Emergency use.

A good woman can't cook without rice, and Li Ping has no other choice but to be depressed, so he has to eat to find happiness.

After dinner, Li Ping slept for a while, because he still had important things to do in the afternoon.This body is already very weak, and after tossing and tossing for a whole morning, the fatigue is even worse, but since some things have been arranged, it is not easy to take them back.

In the afternoon, in a shaded place in the Li Ping camp, more than 100 officers and soldiers (all officers and soldiers who participated in the battle and other officers and officers above the rank of other sentries) sat together in a somewhat messy manner. They will hold the first post-war summary meeting here.

The reason for choosing this place is that there is no requirement for neat seating. Li Ping mainly wants to make the atmosphere less tense, so that everyone can relax and speak freely.After all, this is the first time, people are easy to restrain themselves, if you dare not say it, it will be meaningless.

Li Ping also sat on a small chair, seeing that everyone was present, he made the opening remarks directly.

"Brothers, I gathered everyone together today, and everyone knows what to do. Why, I must open this post-war summary, and I have to talk to everyone first.

In the last battle, we had a total of 118 brothers who participated in the battle. 19 were killed and 23 were injured. The casualties were relatively large. I went to the grave to worship in the morning and went to the health center to see the injured brothers. I was in a bad mood. it is good.

Most of those sitting here have experienced the last battle. I believe everyone has their own experience and feelings about this battle.We all know that we almost all went with the brothers who died in battle.

After the war is over, we have to grow our memory so that we don't have the same situation next time. We are unlucky, and we haven't learned the lesson from this time, so it's all in it.

Moreover, in war, casualties are inevitable, but if we think about it carefully, can some casualties be avoided?Are some brothers immortal?Is it possible not to endure such a big crisis?

I think of course it is.

There are my problems, the problems of officers at all levels, and the problems of ordinary soldiers themselves.If we can deal with it better, we will be able to calmly deal with the enemy's attack, not only can we win easily, but we can also reduce the casualties by at least half, and increase the results of the battle by half..."

In the opening remarks, Li Ping talked a lot. Some words must be explained thoroughly for the first time.

After the opening remark, someone told me that Wang Chengwu had come over and wanted to listen in.Li Ping hurriedly called someone to greet him, and said that there was no problem.Seeing Wang Chengwu come in, he found a corner and sat on the ground without saying much. Then Li Ping began to analyze the gains and losses of this battle, and he had to make some things first.

"I think we were able to win this time because of the following aspects.

First of all, the organization is relatively good. The organizational system of the army has not been chaotic. This is very important. Fighting is a collective. Once the team is in chaos, it will be surrounded and beaten. Phase training is effective and builds a basic collective awareness….

Where are we not doing well?I think there are several outstanding issues as follows.

First of all, I didn't keep up with my initial decision-making. I didn't think about what to do for a long time, so that the troops were in a chaotic state of fighting on their own. There will be more casualties. If the enemy attacks us first, we may suffer heavy casualties or even wipe out the entire army.

Secondly, we have not formed a response plan for various situations. Before the battle, officers and soldiers at all levels are required to adapt and respond on the spot. This is too late, and it is also difficult to organize and easily cause confusion.

What's more, some officers didn't play their role well. After fighting for a long time, some corporal commanders and special commanders were still in a daze; , took the lead....

……

After talking about ourselves for a long time, I also have to talk about our enemies. You can’t just look at one side of everything. More than 2000 years ago, there was a great general named Sun Wu who said that those who know the enemy and know themselves can win a hundred battles.

The enemy's ambush this time should be said to be very organized, and there are many things we can learn and learn from.Seven to eight hundred of them have been hidden in the mountains for so many days, and they have done a very good job of concealment.The prior reconnaissance was also excellent. The spies had close contact with us directly in the temple, and it should be said that they found out our reality.The ambush area was then reached by a fast covert march, well camouflaged.The attack launch and the suspicious formation are relatively good, and it almost gets the job done.

But they also made many mistakes, some fatal, which lead to failure.

First of all, the choice of the ambush area is worthy of scrutiny. They want to take advantage of the geographical advantage, but they not only lock us, but also limit their own attack path.Then there is no concentration of troops to attack during the ambush, but the division of troops to the front, back, left, and right. It seems to cover everything, but the troops are seriously dispersed. Once encountering a strong sniper, it is difficult to quickly concentrate superior forces.It seems to be very comprehensive, but it completely ignores its own strength, and its own training level is simply not enough to support such a complicated action.

In addition, the starting position of the attacking troops was too far behind, and the need for concealment was considered too much, which gave us a longer reaction time, and caused many troops to run around in the fog, and the front and rear were seriously out of touch, without forming a crowd effect for the attack. .

In addition, the organization is not tight, the command is relatively chaotic, they often fight on their own, the awareness of team formation and mutual assistance is very poor, and they cannot react for a long time after encountering a blow... "

Li Ping's lecture lasted for a long time. He usually talked about the whole first, and then broke down each part. His mouth was dry and he drank several times in the middle.It also confused all the officers and soldiers below. Many people looked at their chief in astonishment, and soon the crowd buzzed.

Ma Lan looked at Li Ping almost with admiration. Although he had not personally experienced this battle, he had heard a lot from his elder brother and had some knowledge of his own, but compared with Li Ping, he suddenly found that his knowledge was really It's too low-level.

This little officer brought him too many surprises.He has never met a person like Li Ping, who is so talented, thoughtful, and unique, and he is completely different from those nerds. For the first time, he suddenly found himself eager to learn by Li Ping's side. Listen beside Li Ping.

Half a day after Li Ping finished speaking, no one came out to speak. Everyone was just buzzing about. After a few reminders, Li Ping became a little anxious, which is not good.

Just when he was anxious and about to roll the roll, Ma Yong stood up.

In the quiet anticipation of the crowd, Ma Yongshun took several breaths before he began to speak.

He first expressed his great agreement with Li Ping's conclusion, but then he first mentioned that he had suggested that Li Ping retreat immediately.He said with emotion that although he had fought many battles before, he still only stayed at the simple stage of charging and killing, and he was not good at observing. If there is another interception, it is unknown how many people will die.

He concluded that a commander must first focus on observing the battlefield situation, not like him, where the enemy keeps beating drums and suspicious formations are invisible.Then it is necessary to control the troops at all times, whether attacking or retreating in an orderly manner, otherwise once the whole body collapses, it is the most unreliable to rely on individual bravery to save lives, just like the general army Same……

Ma Yong's summary is more like a self-criticism, but Li Ping can't be too demanding at this time, because everything is difficult at the beginning.

Fortunately, after Ma Yong started, and after Ma Yong stared at some people, Ma Yong's subordinates also began to stand up and speak slowly one by one. It seems that Ma Yong was still very obedient and made arrangements in advance, and soon everyone The discussion gradually heated up.

Some talked about the cooperation between spearmen and sword players, some talked about how everyone should run without chaos when attacking, and some talked about what went wrong when they cooperated with each other when defending, and how to change it later, and some soldiers They even bluntly said that there was a problem with their corporal commanders and special commanders...

Among them, the speech of a soldier left the deepest impression on Li Ping.It was an ordinary soldier, thin, not tall, and unremarkable in appearance, but his clothes were relatively clean and neat.

He said that after we started to stabilize the formation in this battle, we should immediately move forward and try to rescue the lieutenant's wife, because our main task is to protect the lieutenant's wife.If the main mission fails, even if we all come back alive, losing the lieutenant's wife is also a death penalty.

The other is that when Li Ping goes to rescue the deputy general's wife, he should concentrate his strength from the beginning. There are many enemies, and most of us have just joined the army. Not only is it useless if there are fewer people, but it is easy to die in vain.

What's more, judging from this battle, archers are very important, and sometimes directly determine the success or failure of the battle.If half of our people can shoot arrows this time, the casualties will be smaller and the battle will be easier to fight, but now there are only a dozen of us in the whole battalion who can shoot arrows well. If it is a big battle, the existing archers are Not enough to cover troops.

After the soldier finished speaking, Li Ping asked curiously, did he think these things himself, or did he hear them from others.The soldier immediately felt a little embarrassed, blushing and said that he had just figured it out on his own, and he didn't know right or wrong.

Li Ping praised the soldier's thinking very affirmatively, and told everyone to learn from this soldier, dare to speak, have brains, and see far.

The post-war summary meeting lasted a whole afternoon, and there was a phenomenon of deviation in the middle. Many people began to show their merits, boast about themselves or each other, and some even flattered Li Ping and Ma Yong.Fortunately, Li Ping stopped it in time. He made it clear that he would not talk about his own achievements, nor how brave others were or how many enemies he had killed. He only talked about tactics and organizational issues. Only then did he control the direction.

At the end of the meeting, Li Ping refined and summarized the opinions put forward by everyone, and made it clear that these lessons and main speeches will be recorded in vernacular for future reference.

After the meeting, Wang Chengwu didn't bother Li Ping too much.He knew that Li Ping must be tired, so he just asked Li Ping to give him a copy of these experiences and lessons, and of course Li Ping did not refuse.So Wang Chengwu declined Li Ping's invitation to have dinner with him on the grounds that it was getting dark, and left happily.

It is true that Li Ping used his brain too much, but it was all his own fault, so he could only stand up.After dinner, because there was an assessment tomorrow, he was really tired, so after thinking quietly for a while, he quickly washed up and fell asleep.
