GENERAL EAGLE Post 680

GENERAL EAGLE Once upon a time,
there was a peaceful kingdom where people thrived in harmony. However, one
day, a neighboring kingdom grew envious of its wealth and fertile lands and
began preparing for invasion. Sensing the threat, the king knew he needed a
remarkable general to defend the realm. After careful selection, two renowned
commanders emerged as the top candidates: General Mãnh-Hổ, known as Tiger,
and General Đại-Bàng, called Eagle. To determine who was
best suited to lead the army, the king posed two critical questions to each
general. The first question
was: “How would you fight against a
stronger enemy?” General Tiger
answered without hesitation, “I will
make our soldiers fight harder.” General Eagle, after a brief moment of
thought, responded, “I will make our
strategies unpredictable.” The second
question was: “What will be our
ultimate goal in this war?” With great confidence, General Tiger
declared, “Victory—win, win, and win!”.
General Eagle bowed slightly and said, “In
my humble opinion, the ultimate goal of war is to restore peace.” As soon as both
generals had left, the king convened a council with his advisors. The
majority sided with General Tiger, arguing, “An army’s purpose is to fight and win. Victory will bring glory and
pride to our people.” Only one advisor spoke in support of General Eagle.
“While strength in battle is essential,
it should be the foundation of any army, not its defining feature. True
superiority lies in strategy—surprising the enemy with unpredictable plans.
And war, in its essence, should aim not only for victory but for lasting
peace.” After much
deliberation, the king made his decision: General Eagle would lead the army
through the coming storm. His wisdom and vision offered hope for a peace that
would outlast mere triumph on the battlefield. History, however, tells a
curious tale. In the annals of time, readers will find little mention of
General Eagle’s name. It is the generals who fought long, bloody
campaigns—those who sacrificed countless lives in pursuit of victory—who fill
the pages of glory. Yet somewhere beyond those words, the quiet wisdom of
General Eagle endures, whispered among those who know that the greatest
victories are not always the ones engraved in stone, but the peace that
follows./. Charles Phan
