Quite so. Many like to... save as many as possible, but there always must be sacrifices. To simply... ignore the cold calculus of war, and rush blindly in...

It's foolish. And does little more than cause further, undue struggle. Lost resources, lost effort, an entire front can collapse, while attentions are focused elsewhere.

I do know that one, all too well. In fact, I've made it a point to...exploit, at times.

[ Like unleashing a demon of corruption on a weak point in the army and watching the entire front collapse, and force her enemies to march there instead. ]
