Chapter 1 - Strategy

PART 1

To strengthen the country and the army, strategy is first. To study and research strategy, we must first clarify
the basic concepts, study the basic theories, and master the basic principles. This Part is the basic theory of
strategy, which aims to reveal the basic connotation, basic principles, and operating laws of strategy. On the
basis of explaining the basic issues of strategy, the five links of strategic operation are discussed in detail,
namely, strategic judgment, strategic decision-making, strategic planning, strategic implementation, and
strategic evaluation. Among them, making correct strategic judgments on the security situation facing the
country is the starting point for strategic operations. On the basis of strategic analysis and judgment,
strategic directors make strategic decisions, identify threats, distinguish between enemies and friends, clarify
goals and tasks, and make strategic deployments. In order to implement the various contents of the strategic
decision, it is necessary to formulate a strategic plan, and then pay for the implementation of the strategy,
and implement the content of the strategic decision and plan into all links and stages of military conflict and
army building. Finally, there is an evaluation of the strategic operation process. This is the complete process
and basic principle of strategic operation. By revealing this basic principle, this part provides theoretical
support for the strategic guidance on the use and construction of military forces in later chapters.
