Chapter 73 Comprehensive Planning

Zhao Hu saw his elder brother Zhou Zheng's confident look, so he smiled and asked, "Brother, you look so confident. Could it be that you have already made a rough plan for the various defense measures of Shuang'er Mountain?"

"Before the battle begins, the enemy will be defeated. Only when the defense is complete can the full force of the attack be launched. Be as still as a mountain, and attack like fire."

"The entire Shuang'er Mountain is in a strategically important position, easy to defend but difficult to attack. Does that mean we can't conquer it just because it's so strategically important? I can't see it!"

"During the Three Kingdoms period, the road into Shu Han was extremely rugged and full of cliffs. It's true that the road to Shu was as difficult as climbing to heaven, but why was Shu Han ultimately destroyed by Deng Ai?"

"Wasn't the road into Shu dangerous and difficult to defend? But Deng Ai found a road no one had ever taken before, crossed mountains and ridges, and overcame countless difficulties and dangers. The large army quietly descended from the cliffs and reached Chengdu. In the end, he captured Chengdu in one fell swoop, forcing Liu Chan to surrender. Shu Han was thus destroyed."

“There is no unbreakable fortress in this world. It just depends on whether you use the right methods. So don’t underestimate anyone in the world.”

"So we have to focus on defense. Only when our own territory and our home base are safe can we think about other things."

"Do you know why Zhuge Liang was so powerful? It's because he thought long-term. He knew the road to Shu was as difficult as climbing to heaven. But what if someone took a deserted path, crossed mountains and ridges, and endured countless hardships to reach Chengdu? That would truly destroy the Shu Han. So Zhuge Liang stationed 3000 elite soldiers at each of the cliffs leading into Shu, to prevent anyone from attacking Chengdu from these deserted places."

"The results proved Zhuge Liang's strategic vision to be correct. However, after his death, those short-sighted people in Shu Han said that the Shu Road was as difficult as climbing to heaven. How could anyone possibly reach Chengdu through this deserted Shu Road? It was completely unrealistic. So they withdrew all the soldiers stationed at such cliffs. So in the end, Deng Ai completely slapped everyone in Shu Han in the face by taking these deserted Shu Roads to Chengdu and destroying Shu Han in one fell swoop."

"So for us at Shuang'er Mountain, the front is a dangerous terrain, easy to defend but difficult to attack. In addition, the bunkers we built are impregnable. Even if an army of 10 came, they would not be able to attack us at Shuang'er Mountain."

"But what if someone attacks from the cliffs behind the mountain? What will you do?"

"This...this is impossible, right? There are cliffs all behind the Shuang'er Mountain base. Who can get up here?" Zhao Hu said disapprovingly.

Seeing Zhao Hu's expression, Zhou Zheng sighed and said to him seriously, "Huzi, if I were your enemy on Shuang'er Mountain, I could climb up from the cliffs behind Shuang'er Mountain, catch you off guard from behind, and stab you in the heart, giving you a fatal blow and ending this battle in one fell swoop."

"This...this...this..." After hearing what his elder brother Zhou Zheng said, Zhao Hu immediately understood. He was shocked and his whole body was instantly soaked with sweat. He breathed rapidly and took in big gulps of air.

Zhou Zheng patted Zhao Hu on the shoulder and said, "So, don't underestimate the heroes of this world. Isn't Deng Ai from the Three Kingdoms period a living example?"

"Impossibility is relative, not absolute."

"Of course, if we station a platoon of soldiers on the cliff behind Shuang'er Mountain and keep an eye on the movements on the cliff, there will be no problem. Even thousands of troops will not be able to climb up the cliff." Zhou Zheng said to Zhao Hu with a smile.

Zhao Hu sighed and said, "Listening to your words is worth ten years of reading. Brother, Zhao Hu has learned a lot today."

"Discussion means pooling wisdom, accepting good suggestions, discarding useless ones, and retaining new ones."

"Brother, you're right. I was too narrow-minded. I thought I was a graduate of the Military Academy and that I could easily deploy offensive and defensive forces on these hilltops. Today, I was taught a lesson by you. I realized that there are always people who are better than you. Zhao Hu has learned a lot from this lesson."

"He who does not plan for all things is unfit to plan for the present; he who does not plan for the whole is unfit to plan for a region. The way to be a general is to know both yourself and the enemy, so that you can win every battle."

"We are all constantly learning about war in the midst of war. In this process of continuous learning, we constantly sum up our experiences, so that we can improve ourselves. War is a process of continuous summarization and learning."

"One incompetent general can lead to the death of the entire army. So many brothers have placed their lives in our hands. We must be worthy of the trust they have placed in us. We are responsible for their lives, so we cannot make any mistakes, not even the slightest one."

"Yes...Captain." Zhao Hu stood at attention, chest out, and saluted loudly as he replied to his elder brother Zhou Zheng.
