| I gave you three before:
(1) reconnaissance - know him
(2) aggressive defense: patrols - dominate
(3) you can achieve now with 30 men what in an hour may take you 300 men - this is the similar to mike golf's " a violently executed plan today will be more effective than a perfectly executed plan tomorrow"
It really is not about numbers per se; morale, momentum and surprise count for a lot.
On attacking:
"in war, you hit the enemy as hard as you can, as quickly as you can, where it hurts most, when he's not looking;"
"the essence of war is violence; moderation in war is stupidity" - fast, hard, finish. |
