Chapter 138 Willing to be a lamp
Many nations and countries seem to have a problem. They cannot reflect on their own shortcomings or the reasons for failure, and expand the positive things infinitely and take a look at the negative ones. For example, the Soviet Union suffered serious failures in the early days of World War II, but there was no special book to reflect on the reasons for failure. In particular, the various serious strategic mistakes made by the Soviet leadership, dominated by Stalin, were not specifically discussed.
All the former Soviet military history books that have spread across the former Soviet Union and the world almost describe how the Soviet army bravely defeated the German army, and their own failures have been described in one sentence.
China also has such an incomprehensible phenomenon. Before the 1990s, various books unanimously criticized the Kuomintang's policy of non-resistance in the War of Resistance Against Japan and its combat process. Later, the vocals sang the heroism and glory of the Kuomintang army. In this wave of positive and negative propaganda, few people conducted objective series of research and discussions based on the original historical facts and original materials of China and Japan.
As a result, the people were influenced by public opinion time and time again, fell into historical misunderstandings, and could not discover the truth of history. Therefore, the Chinese nation could not form a highly scientific and intelligent historical thinking system of group nature.
For example, it is like after a person has experienced a flood disaster. At first, he always publicizes how powerful the flood is, and later he always publicizes how he escapes from the flood tenaciously. The most important reasons, such as the causes of the flood and what are the shortcomings of the protection facilities, he does not reflect on or look for the shortcomings. The consequence is that he may suffer again in the next flood, or even a catastrophe.
Meng Youtian didn't want to do hindsight, nor did he want to use the results of later historical research to show his cleverness. Just like a person who said to another person who was in a downturn, "I knew it would be like this, I knew it wouldn't work...", which was very disgusting and disgusting.
A teacher who never forgets the past and then gets up after failure, as long as you still have the energy to persist. But no matter how stupid you don’t change your strategy, you can only fall down and get up. If you fall down and get up, it will be useless except for meaningless stubbornness.
As a latecomer, Meng Youtian wanted to be a coach, a coach who was observing calmly outside the court. He reminded himself who was fighting: "The opponent was strong. But it was not without flaws. Be careful of the left hook, protect the abdomen, be careful of the right straight punch..."
To a certain extent, Meng Youtian has done it now. He asked Xiao Guanghe to organize and publish the texts brought to the rear by a very responsible reporter on the newspaper, but the reporter didn't know who wrote it, nor did he know who put the text materials in front of his door.
It was time when the Japanese army had completely blocked China's southwestern coast, bombarded Chongqing, and the national crisis was becoming increasingly serious. Many generals and strategists in the Kuomintang were also looking for and researching strategies to respond to the enemy. Many senior generals with combat experience wrote books, and even literati and politicians were politicians and politicians were politicians and others.
Meng Youtian's written materials at the height of history are like a fresh wind, bringing people to think and inspire, including what others think and what others don't think of. It is comprehensive, profound, meaningful, and it is reasonable to attract everyone's thinking and attention.
Perhaps not all of them agree, but each person can find some of the things they need from it. Wei Lihuang and others valued the defense of Zhongtiao Mountain. Li Zongren and others focused on fighting against the Japanese army, while Jiang turned their attention to "in units of regiments or divisions, they took turns to attacking the enemy in a row, and they stopped just by trying it, not only attacking the enemy and increasing the combat experience of the troops. It also caused our army to remain strong and counterattacked, and the appearance of the Japanese army being fierce and weak on the outside can obtain more international aid."
In any case, Meng Youtian did what he should do. It was not in vain that he could not inspire the military generals who were thinking about how to deal with the Japanese devils, but he used another more direct way to promote the development and in-depth of certain military academics. That is guidance and guidance. Some people may look down on it and sneer, but as long as someone proves its effectiveness and practicality in practice, this theory and creativity will spread. As for when it will be effective, or whether it will be effective, it is not something he can take into account.
And from his heart, he really hoped that during the Anti-Japanese War, the Chinese would die less and the country would suffer less losses, but he did not have the idea of becoming famous. But the responsible reporter became famous, and based on Meng Youtian's information, he began to devote himself to studying the tactics against Japan, and later became a very famous military critic.
Of course, Meng Aotian was not satisfied with just learning lessons and experiences, nor was he satisfied with the explanation of Japan's tactics. He also half-propheticly speculated Japan's future actions: "Japan did not obtain the most critical strategic material - oil on the Chinese battlefield. Japan not only lacked oil, but also had many ores, such as rubber, and important war resources such as rubber also needed them completely. The only places that can fully meet Japan's energy needs are Southeast Asia. The combat effectiveness and equipment of the Japanese navy were at the forefront of the world at that time, and it is also very likely to defeat the United States and Britain, whose center of gravity was in Europe in Southeast Asia..."
There is a saying among Chinese folk: Open your mouth and make profits, and not giving is enough. Meng Youtian is based on this idea and is not what he is worried about whether he can achieve his goal. Of course, after making such a speculation, Meng Youtian gave a very detailed discussion on the Japanese army cutting off the Yunnan-Burma Highway, China's only external material supply line. He hopes that the Chinese government will prepare early to avoid the tragedy of the expeditionary army's failure and sinking sand.
There is no need to be too detailed or comprehensive. It is not without talented people in China. As long as you open your ideas and imagine this possibility, people will naturally study, discover and improve it. Meng Youtian does not want to be a nagging old woman, which makes people feel that he is in the face of his life; he wants to be a lamp in the dark. Although it is not too bright, it can guide the direction and give people hope.
Golden autumn is indeed a season of harvest. Meng Youtian is not clear or knows in the distance. But what is near is another bumper harvest, and not only the crops, Axiu is pregnant again. Azuki's eyes reveal the light of expectation and hope. The Meng family's family's inheritance is a matter that she cannot let go.
