Chapter 1736: Fourteen. Yam Liza (5)

Negotiation is an art.
This art is extremely demanding, but the results it shows are always unacceptable to everyone, especially the negotiations that take the hindsight and staying safe as the main appeal. Whether it is bystanders or participants, there are few Satisfied people.
The coordination meeting on strengthening the defense of Yam Liza falls into this category. No one wants to hold this meeting, and no one is willing to increase their responsibilities and obligations, but each department wants to take this opportunity to expand its authority and establish its own Dominant position, find ways to reach into the territory of other departments.
This kind of ecstasy is a remarkable achievement in maintaining a peaceful atmosphere from beginning to end. It is important to know that the participants are all military and police constitutional personnel. They have a temper that likes to use pistols and tomahawks instead of brains to solve problems. Moreover, the Principality still maintains the custom of using duels to solve problems. As long as someone dares to throw gloves, find witnesses, and set up a life and death, then a group of generals and colonels can happily duel.
Eventually, the situation did not move towards the break, nor did it mention any results worth mentioning. The only thing that could be called the result was that all the units knew that there was an attacker wandering around Yaliza. Okrana has done its duty to communicate the alarm, and all military units have also received this message. As for how to defend, how to screen, check, and arrest, of course, it is a matter of taking care of each family, as long as the scope of their own management does not happen, whoever controls others is alive. If anybody had a bad luck, everyone just jumped out and beat the water dog.
Such a result is certainly not satisfactory to people such as Admiral Makarov and Rear Admiral Kolchak, who are full of active spirit.
"This group of murderous bureaucrats!! Eat the rats of the country! The fallen animals!"
As a professional soldier with high education and strict military officer training, Major General Kolchak has always behaved like a true gentleman. Everyone who has contacted him thinks that even in the navy system full of intellectuals and technicians, it is very difficult to find someone who is more polite than Golchak.
Those people wouldn't think that Kolchak would also scold others like this.
In fact, even if he scolded, Kolchak was quite restrained, and he would never say bad things like "Go to death!" and "Fight a defeat!"
It was because he knew his character and self-control that Admiral Makarov did not reprimand or stop him. The wise veteran sat in his office chair and watched his subordinates scolding and venting, and then calmed down. When the rage retreated, the cloud of failure and frustration enveloped the major general, and the old general spoke.
"Alexander Vasilyevich, the volcanic eruption will not make winter into summer, nor be discouraged nor dim the sun in the sky. If you have been scolded enough and frustrated enough, then now we can enter official time. "
"Sorry, sir, let you see the shameful side."
"It's nothing. It was the same when I was young. When I encountered the bird incident that the bureaucrats were making, the whole person was like a cannonball that exploded, and I wanted to kick anything when I saw it. Take out the pistols and put them all on the spot."
The old general said with a smile, like an ordinary old man who likes to joke, but from the twinkling eyes, I am afraid that may not really be a joke.
"Okay, let's throw those nasty ghosts aside, Alexander Vasilyevich, what do you think of this series of attacks, and what abacus is our cunning opponent playing?"
"Obviously, the Lord Magician is trying and verifying the possibility of using small forces to conduct penetration and destruction operations on the Yalliza stronghold. These attempts are to create conditions and accumulate experience for the next official attack. This is completely consistent with our previous analysis Consistent."
Parsifal’s previous performance was indeed an eye-catching performance. Gorchak, his opponent, couldn’t help but admire and admire the magical tactics. But even that amazing result still fails to bridge the huge gap between the two countries and the two armies, and exposes Parsifal’s strategic dilemma.
Parsifal successfully delayed the Principality Army’s war schedule through a tactical strike, but this delay and the loss of materials are affordable for the Principality. Through the preparation for the past week, several times the lost new materials have been prepared. Once the traffic line returns to normal, the logistics supply system that has learned the lessons will deliver the materials to the front line with higher efficiency. This time, Parsifal cannot replicate the previous miracle.
In contrast, behind the shocking results, Parsifal or Lapland also showed a chronic illness with insufficient strength and low ability to withstand losses. If Lapland’s fleet is larger, or it can be quickly replenished even if it suffers a certain degree of loss, then Parsifal will dare to take risks after winning a big victory, seeking to expand the results and obtain a more complete victory. Instead of evacuating the battlefield early to avoid losses.
In the final analysis, cruising or wolves, including Parsifal’s magic, may be tempting because any concept of small-scale targeted strikes to collapse a fragile system, because the goal of this concept is to The human and material resources invested in exchange for huge results have great attraction for those countries with insufficient strength. Regrettably, "system crash" is easier said than done, and it will inevitably require a lot of troops to contribute to system crash. These include many tasks such as reconnaissance, support, enticement, and coordinated strikes, which means that small military forces such as the Lapland Floating Fleet are destined to be impossible to achieve the minimum force required to meet the "system collapse", which attacks the Principality Army The losses caused by the logistics system cannot exceed the tolerable limit and replenishment speed of the Duchy. Not only that, they have to do everything they can to avoid any loss, because this loss is permanent, and it is impossible to expect recovery in the short term.
Parsifal may be a rare genius general, but his talents cannot change objective facts, nor can the inherent flaws of the concept of "system collapse" disappear like magic. He can only ensure that Lapland "will not fail" through precise calculations and a series of bold and targeted blows in order to seek a "decent peace" acceptable to both sides.
Not aiming for victory, but aiming at "undefeated", it sounds like there is a military virtue and "offensive spirit" that violates the soldiers, but to Kolchak, know what his goal is and his ability limit Where, set goals and consequences and take action-this is the real famous. Those flashy things are all nonsense.
"Your Magician’s goal is to attack the center of the Yamliza stronghold, thereby achieving a true "system collapse". However, its strength is not enough to carry out a frontal attack. In fact, it is impossible to even carry out a fleet battle and win. Things, not to mention the strong attack on the fortress. So his only viable tactic is the surprise attack, such as sending small commandos to make our army attack. The purpose of a series of recent attacks is to hone these attack teams through actual combat and exercise them. Skills and tactics, and learn how to better hide and disguise yourself to make you look more like a true Principality soldier, thereby increasing the success rate of penetration and destruction operations. In addition, the endless attacks will also make our army exhausted , And then achieve the effect of striking east and west."
"Very well said, Alexander Vasilyevich. It seems that the magician is indeed a good opponent and teacher, he successfully opened up your horizons."
"You praised it."
"No, you don't have to be humble. There are only two of us here. The official set can be discarded. If you do well, you should exaggerate. If you do wrong, you should scold. It's that simple."
The old general smiled with both heroic and gratifying, but soon a haze appeared in his eyes.
"But...I was wondering, would the magician actually want to observe our reaction? It was like dripping ink into the clear water in a glass beaker, observing how the ink spreads and dilutes, he put the'Commando' This drop of ink dripped into Yam Liza, and then observed our reaction?"
"You mean... conflicts between departments, and gaps between defense zones?"
In terms of hardware facilities, even if the Lapland floating fleet is quadrupled to attack, the result is simply to expand the scale of its own losses and use its own life to achieve the merits of the military and soldiers of the Principality. But software... Those flesh and blood who operate weapons and equipment have invisible rules and regulations and coordination efficiency between different departments. Can they still play their due role in the face of cunning enemies?
"You just saw ~EbookFREE.me~ the enemy commando has not rushed into the fortress yet, the uniformed bureaucrats have already thought about how to reap the benefits, how to shirk responsibility when things happen, and really meet In the case of the enemy, can this fortress be called "difficult to attack"?"
With a long sigh, Makarov's stunned voice knocked on Kolchak's nerves.
"I just said, "Pull out all those who can only talk nonsense and do nothing." It's not completely irritating. I have thought about it more than once. Instead of waiting for an irreparable situation to happen, I will manage it unreasonably. The structure is undergoing drastic reforms, where it is probably a better choice to directly pull the present and shoot them under the wall of the fortress. But every time I endure the impulse. Alexander Vasilyevich, you Do you know why this is not? Fear of military courts, nor fear of reprisals from my family. The reason for preventing me from doing so is that I suddenly scum, but soon another scum will come up, he may learn the lessons of his predecessor It may not be. In short, this is an unpredictable variable. On the contrary, I will definitely be knocked down by the cold arrow behind me. It may be lost in office or may be exiled to permanently frozen soil to dig potatoes. It can be controlled by the power granted to me by His Majesty. This old body can also block bullets for young people like you. How can I clean up this mess after I leave?"
"Your Mightiness!"
"You don't have to persuade me. Your task is to concentrate on thinking about how to win, and then implement your combat plan. Don't worry about winning or losing, what's the problem, it's up to me, the old man, you let it go."
Makarov got up and patted Kolchak's shoulder, smiling and said:
"The next is the era when young people shine. I don’t need to call the curtain to perform for the veterans. It is the best farewell to stand on the last post."
