It'll Come Naturally

In H City, the military exercise was drawing to a close. With a smile on his face, Kevin was excited. He thought, 'Daisy put a lot of work into arranging marches and using various weapons. I wonder how this military exercise will turn out. Or what effect it'll have on various processes already in place. I couldn't get the upper hand, but neither could she. I guess we'll have to call it a draw.'

"Dogrobber! Order the first echelon to hold the enemy at bay! And the second and third echelons to surround the enemy, close in now!" ordered Kevin. He was the commander of the blue army.

"Daisy, what else can you do? I have to admit that I'm surprised at your solid skills in these military exercises," whispered Kevin to himself. He put his cap on straight and wore a smile on his face.

"Colonel, Major General Gu is fighting back now? According to the rules, the blue army should be on the defensive!" said a young major. He was checking screens and making notes in the red army hq. He pointed at the red dot moving rapidly on the screen.

'Kevin, you've lost patience. I knew that you wouldn't follow the rules and be on the defensive. But this time, your enemy is me. I'm no pushover, ' thought Daisy. She put on a bright smile, excited about what was going to happen next.

"Colonel! According to rules, the blue army is not allowed to initiate attacks. It's against the aim of the exercise!" repeated the young major. He tried to remind Daisy of the rules again.

"What is the point of the exercise?" asked Daisy. She continued, "The point of the exercise is to train armies! Usually, the blue army is the grindstone. And why are we trained? In peacetime, soldiers are trained to prepare for future wars! And following orders step-by-step will make the training meaningless! There are no rules on a real battle field! Only strength matters. Defeat the enemy and you will survive!" rebuked Daisy.
