Long Hao smiled and said, "These are all general talks! I have also read Clausewitz's "On War" and his book is basically written based on Napoleon. What commander and morale? We are going
Other countries are playing invasion, morale can be obtained by throwing enough benefits. No national justice or national honor can work! And commander? A military genius like Napoleon, who has seen him for hundreds of years, is not me
Underestimate you, Savi, do you think you are a wise commander who can predict the enemy's initiative? As for concentrating superior forces in large-scale battles, it is even more funny. We have only recruited a thousand soldiers now, and the people who went to Cuba in the end
It won't exceed 20,000. At most, it's a small fight. What's the chance of a large-scale battle? Besides, the "rebels" in Cuba are like ground rats. If you want to fight to the decisive battle, you have to ask them.
Willing to show up or not!”
Savi was stunned by Long Hao's crackling words: "This...this..."
Long Hao took a breath, took a sip of wine and continued, "I want to say that the thing that determines the outcome of the war is very simple, that is..."
What is it? Savira's neck lengthened.
"...weapons!" Long Hao made the final decision.
Tell, what am I doing? Everyone knows what weapons are like! After hearing this, Savi suddenly felt disdainful, but he didn't dare to show it at all on his face.
Long Hao stood up, grabbed the good wine in the Savi wine cabinet, filled a glass, and smiled and said, "Dear Viscount, you don't think so?"
"No, no! Weapons are powerful weapons, and of course this is the key to the outcome!" Savi was shocked and quickly flattered: "Young Master Long's words are the finishing touch, making me awake as if I were dreaming!
”
Long Hao smiled and said, "Okay, okay, it's better not to say these hypocritical words, I won't kill you. After all, you are Melissa's cousin! Listen carefully to me and see if there is a certain reason...
”
The history of human wars has many records. No matter how you win with less and suppress people with power, you have not grasped the essence!
In fact, war is about the fact that the party with superior weapons defeats the party with inferior weapons.
During the primitive stage, tribes with wooden sticks swallowed up tribes with bare hands, while tribes with stone tools eliminated tribes with wooden sticks.
When the tribe was founded, bronze ware showed its strengths, defeated stone ware, and established a feudal monarchy empire.
After the invention of iron tools, the big sword that was tempered into steel forced the bronze tools out of the historical stage. The continuous improvement of crossbow arrows made Genghis Khan's cavalry and shooting troops stop at the city.
The birth of firearms announced the end of the era of cold weapons. Zhu Yuanzhang relied on the original muskets and horse teams to drive Genghis Khan's descendants back to the grassland and rebuild the prosperous China era.
The same is true for the European continent, with the outbreak of the industrial revolution, and hot weapons are constantly being renovated, flintlock rifles, breech guns, combo guns, heavy machine guns, artillery, warships... The same killing weapons are coming out,
In the past few hundred years alone, tens of millions of European population have been harvested.
"...Savi, I've said so much. Do you really agree with my opinion from the bottom of your heart?" Long Hao talked endlessly for more than an hour before then stopped and asked Savi, who was a little stunned:
"Weapons are the first element that determines the outcome of a war!"
It seems to make sense!
How can Savi, a 19th century man, compare his knowledge with elites from the next 400 years? Let’s not talk about Long Hao, just let him talk to any online friend in the 21st century, and he may be able to be the other party.
He was stunned for a moment.
Savi said: "It's true. All countries in the world are building battleships! Britain, France, and the German Empire are all spending money to build such war weapons... Unfortunately, Spain's treasury has long been empty, otherwise, I will
Come out, maybe there will be a fleet escort!"
Long Hao said: "Your country, politics and economy are too corrupt, and it's all up to the old capital of the previous colonies! But you don't have to be too discouraged, this is your opportunity..."
Opportunity? Savi's heart hopped and his eyes glowed.
"It's too early to talk about this. You should know that the United States will never allow Spanish warships to appear around Cuba and Puerto Rico!" Long Hao underestimated Savi's throbbing, and by the way, he pointed out that the United States and Spain were vaguely.
