The army (British:) army, Ground Force) is kind of the armed forces accomplishing a military operation in the land mainly. The army takes a strategy in the land, the enforcement of the battle for the navy and an air force. I can explain the general importance of the land from the various elements which there is on the land. There are the resources such as plains and the mountains, not only the topography such as rivers but also food and fuel, materials, and there are fighting power and the element of the work force and the population that it is it, besides. While the harbor which is the base of the navy and the air force and an airport and the national nucleus possess a form called the capital, I depend on the land. German political scientist Carl Schmitt "is a creature of the land, and a human being is an animal step on the land, and to walk". The human being stands straight and is active on a walk and the earth. I am nothing but the basic life space of the land human being as this is going to stand a human support and emphasizes that it is the base. The strategic significance of the land is pointed out by British strategist Julian Corbett. Because the human being lives in the land as for him not the ocean, the territory of the enemy and ability of military affairs for the life of the people or the navy think about determining an international dispute with a thing by the ability of possible military affairs as the army the army. It is decisive to lose base (base) which is a base for the navy and an air force, but the base is only garrison town (camp) for the army, and it does not mean defeat immediately to lose it. As for the enemy, it is not determined a military victory of the war as far as the army maintains rule of the land, and this does the significance of existence of the armed forces specialized in the land strategy called the army that I am reliable. The army was a form of the armed forces of the geneses, and the army took various strategic responsibility in the history of the military thought. There are officer curl phone Clausewitz of Prussia and French officer Antoine Henri Jomini to the strategist who affected an ideal method of the military thought of the army. Both are the strategists who affected not only the army but also the strategy thought of the navy and the air force, but speak it from the viewpoint of strategic thought of the army here. Clausewitz develops a theory of the absolute war as own war philosophy in "a round altercation". And I clarified that the law that violence characteristics of the war increased by interaction with me and the enemy for war without any restriction was the true character of the war. Therefore, I am nothing but that I destroy the fighting power of the enemy to destroy the interaction with the duty that the army should achieve. If I put this together with a characteristic of the land and think, the strategic duty of the army is to exterminate an enemy corps essentially, and capture of the city of the enemy or occupying the area is thought about with a duty subsidiarily. Jomini discusses it in "an Operation continent armed forces outline" and "a war outline" about a duty of the army from a different point of view. Jomini does a systematization of a military manoeuvre of the army by this writing and explains a basic principle in a backward connecting line and the concept of the final goal. Jomini regards that I can act by the rear connecting line that the army was tied up to a base as important and insists on approaching it of the enemy while maintaining my backward connecting line. In addition, call the spot important strategically that is provided because I analyze the situation of the topography which is peculiarity into the land with the final goal, and the narrow paths where capital and the rear connecting line which are the politics and economics nucleus of the enemy converge are raised as an example. It is the first duty to annihilate the ground troop of the enemy from these arguments for the army, and the army understands that it is necessary to find my rear connecting line and the final goal of the battlefield depending on the topography of the land to realize it. Various military elements are included in constitution of the army. The army left the infantry unit historically, and a cavalry soldier and a gunner, a combatant of the basic army called the military engineer were formed in Rome military organization more. The modern army begins in what the three kinds of weapons tactics was introduced into by Gustav Adolf, and a foot soldier, a cavalry soldier, the organized cooperation of the gunner come to be carried out by a land strategy.
