家园 呵呵,我桌上放着利德尔-哈特这本书,这里摘录几段。

下面是关于曼施坦因的几段文字,注意划线部分利德尔-哈特的措辞:

“The ablest of all the German generals was probably Field-Marshal Erich von Manstein. That was the verdict of most of those with whom I discussed the war, from Runsdtedt downwards. He had a superb strategic sense, combined with a greater understanding of mechanized weapons than any of the generals who did not belong to the tank school itself. Yet in contrast to some of the single-track enthusiasts he did not lose sight of the importance of improving alternative weapons, and defense.

..... In the emergency Manstein was given an improvised force, called Army Group "Don", and sent to the rescue. It was too late and the effort failed - after some of the most breathless cut-and-thrust in the war. In the subsequent retreat he ralllied the cracking line and prevented the Russians crossing the Dnieper. A dazzling counter-stroke threw them back a long way and recaptured Kharkov, in March 1943.

......That ended the military career of the Allies' most formidable military opponent - a man who combined modern ideas of mobility with a classical sense of manoeuvre, a master of technical detail, and great driving power."

如果你把我文章最后对莫德尔的评价,跟利德尔-哈特对曼施坦因的评价对照,你会发现我的评价要冷静客观很多,根本见不到利德尔-哈特的那些溢美之词,所以谈不上“由色生情”。我文章也没有探讨莫德尔的战争责任问题,唯一的论点是他并不是一个死硬的纳粹份子,而是一个典型的德军将领,他的所作所为并不比其他绝大多数德军将领过分。
