In the political preparation before the war, his first thought was clothes and food, which he dared not enjoy alone and had to be given to others. As well as livestock jade used to worship the gods, you can say as much as you want, dare not exaggerate the figures, and always be sincere, which has nothing to do with winning the war. However, Duke Zhuang of Lu talked about it, showing his superstitious and stupid characteristics.
In the battle, he didn't understand the principle of "high-altitude" and the tactics of "all is fair in war", but he had to attack blindly, and his "cannibalism" characteristics were exposed. In addition, the victory of the "Battle of the Long Spoon" is inseparable from Cao Gui, and Cao Gui's ability to participate in and discuss state affairs is not unrelated to Lu Zhuanggong's modesty and eagerness to learn.
It is not difficult to see from the article that Cao Gui is not a "meat eater". It is commendable that he can stand up when the country is in danger. However, if Duke Zhuang of Lu goes his own way and refuses to accept the advice of such a civilian, does not take him to the battlefield and does not listen to his advice, then the result of the battle will be different.
