"1f we remain where we are and do not pass to the offensive to fix the direction of attack, to guard against the plans of the enemy and prevent him from carrying out the same manoeuvre, we must undertake to carry on and sustain numerous combats, each with determined aim. "But since there remains no doubt that derisive attack Is the very key- stone of a battle, all otber actions winch make up a battle must be en- visage*, coesldered, organized, pro- vided with forces In the measure In. which they will prepare. facilitate and guarantee development of a de- cisive attack characterized by this masa, Its surprise, its speed, and for which, In coosequen..e, 1t Is essential that there shall be the maximum re- serve force possible of troops of manoeuvres.
