Write a paragraph (80-100 words) about what you like or dislike about life in the countryside:

Living in the countryside offers a serene and peaceful environment that is hard to find in bustling cities. The fresh air, open spaces, and close-knit community create a pleasant atmosphere. I enjoy the simplicity and slower pace of life, which allows for more personal time and connection with nature. However, I dislike the limited access to modern amenities and entertainment options. The lack of convenience in terms of shopping and dining can be inconvenient. Despite these drawbacks, the tranquility and natural beauty of the countryside make it a charming place to live.

Điểm độc đáo của tổ chức đánh giặc của Ngô Quyền là sự sáng tạo và linh hoạt trong chiến thuật và sử dụng tài nguyên của mình. Dưới thời Ngô Quyền, việc sử dụng địa hình và sức mạnh của mình đã đóng vai trò quan trọng trong việc đánh bại quân xâm lược Nam Hán.

Một trong những điểm nổi bật là chiến thuật sử dụng sông Bạch Đằng. Ngô Quyền đã tận dụng triệt để đặc điểm địa lý của sông này để tạo ra một cung bẫy quân sự hiệu quả. Bằng cách đặt hàng trăm que gỗ và đinh sắt dưới lòng sông, Ngô Quyền đã tạo ra một đợt sóng gai chắn chặn đối với hạm đội Nam Hán. Khi nước lên, hạm đội xâm lược đã bị mắc kẹt và bị tấn công bất ngờ, góp phần lớn vào chiến thắng của quân Việt Nam.

Không chỉ sử dụng địa hình, Ngô Quyền còn tận dụng sức mạnh tinh thần của quân lính để tạo ra một sự đoàn kết và quyết tâm cao độ. Ông đã biết cách khích lệ và lãnh đạo quân lính một cách hiệu quả, tạo ra một tinh thần chiến đấu mạnh mẽ và không khuất phục trước kẻ thù.

Tổ chức đánh giặc của Ngô Quyền không chỉ thành công trong việc đánh bại quân xâm lược mà còn để lại dấu ấn lâu dài trong lịch sử quân sự Việt Nam, là một ví dụ điển hình về sự sáng tạo, linh hoạt và tinh thần đoàn kết của dân tộc.
