"Sun Tzu's Art of War" classic quotes: Therefore, by the five things, the school to plan and seek the feelings: one is said to be the road, two is said to be heaven, three is said to be the earth, four is said to be the general, and five is said to be the law.
Sun Tzu on the "five things", although the historical conditions of the war is a macro-understanding, but now there is still a good reference significance. I think this is the charm of Sun Tzu's Art of War, which has lasted for a long time.
"Dao" can be interpreted as the morality and stance of war. The meaning of the saying is that "those who win the way much help, those who lose the way little help" this meaning, a just war, will win the people's support, but also will be victorious. Here to my inspiration is to improve the officers and soldiers combat consciousness, not only need to use the current tense situation to stimulate everyone.
More need to use the Marxist concept of war to arm the officers and soldiers, so that we know what is right and what is wrong in front of the big right and wrong, only with this can fundamentally improve the "combat team" consciousness.
"Heaven" and "earth" are better understood. Regardless of which era, the war should pay attention to the time and place. In modern warfare, although the weapons and equipment can be realized all-weather, full-time, full-area combat, but occupy a favorable weather and geographic conditions, in the case of weapons and equipment and the quality of the soldiers will grasp the initiative of the war.
The "general" is the commander. Sun Tzu's requirements for a "general" are: wisdom, faith, benevolence, courage and strictness. These five words have a deeper meaning for modern commanders.
? Wisdom, should be an open, diffuse state of mind, can not be stubbornly simple to learn those fixed content.The letter, from the command point of view is that the order can not be repeatedly changed, otherwise the seriousness will be discounted, the officers and soldiers naturally unconvinced.
Ren, will be benevolent should be embodied in the generous, open-minded, many famous generals in history, although strict discipline, but are convinced by reason, which is the greatest benevolence will be.
Brave, the war to the end is a contest between people, reflecting the country's willpower, if the general is not brave, then the soldiers will be routed.
Strict, that is, adhere to the rule of law from the military, whether it is training or management, in accordance with the standards of war.
"Law" should be the most basic thing of a troop, but also the most intuitive thing we feel. It is also the most difficult to grasp the content of the current grass-roots troops, the key lies in the ability to adhere to the end, consistent. Anything in the army, to form a system of norms, with a unified yardstick to measure, in order to achieve the same pace.
Expanded Information:
In modern warfare is intelligence, with the continuous development of the war mode, intelligence has become a strategic resource, the ability to have absolute access to intelligence, to a certain extent, to master the initiative of the war. Throughout the recent history of war, almost all wars are intelligence first. Nowadays, the way of acquiring intelligence in modern war has changed a lot.
Preserving data is preserving security. The research and development of big data technology is actually a very brain-burning behavior, this technology completely subverted people's understanding of data, seemingly some unrelated data through the analysis and processing of people feel fear. Now a random cell phone navigation software, not only can achieve accurate navigation.
And can be accurately calculated to arrive at the time, this process is by no means a simple distance, speed, time between the mathematical relationship, behind a huge database support. We now need to develop a habit of utilizing data and protecting data, especially since protecting data is protecting security and protecting combat effectiveness.
