In the battle of Jieting, Ma Tan condescended and failed to defeat the Wei soldiers, could he win by camping on the road?Sima Yi couldn't have said it more clearly!
Battle of the Street Pavilion
The Battle of Jieting was the biggest defeat in the Northern Expedition of Shu Han!The Battle of Jieting took place during Zhuge Liang's First Northern Expedition, when due to the death of Liu Bei, the state of Shu Han was declining day by dayCao Wei relaxed his vigilance against Shu Han, thinking that Shu Han was not enough to be afraid, he directly mobilized a large number of troops to attack Eastern Wu, which gave Zhuge Liang an excellent opportunity to attack. Therefore, Zhuge Liang's first Northern Expedition is often considered to be the closest to a successful Northern Expedition!
Facts have also proved that Zhuge Liang's first Northern Expedition is indeedCaught Cao Wei off guard！At that time, Cao Wei's defense was weak, and he was defeated by Zhuge Liang, and only one or two counties were still resisting stubbornly in Longyou, and most of the counties surrendered directly, as long as Zhuge Liang was given a little more time, Longyou would be completely incorporated into the jurisdiction of Shu Han. It was also against this background that the Battle of the Street Pavilion broke out!
Longyou is still resisting stubbornly, Cao Wei of course wants to rescue, and Zhuge Liang wants to block the Wei army in the street pavilion, and wait until Longyou is cleaned up to go to the Wei army to confront the Wei army, so the two sides started a big battle around the street pavilion. The Wei army attacking Jieting on the Wei side was commanded by Sima Yi, with Zhang He as the vanguard. The Wei army defending on the Shu Han side was led by Ma Jian as the commander and Wang Ping as the deputy general.
This Ma Jian is very good at discussing military affairs, and his unique views are sometimes even ashamed of Zhuge Liang, so Zhuge Liang is very important to him and wants to cultivate him as the next generation of ** people, but in the battle of Jieting, Ma Jian did not listen to Zhuge Liang's orders at all, nor did he listen to the advice of his colleaguesNot only did he not go down to the village, but he ran to the mountains and set up camp, wanted to give the Wei army a center to flower, but was defeated by the Wei army, and the street pavilion was lost.
The consequences of the loss of the Jieting were serious, because through the Jieting, the Wei army could penetrate directly into the back of the Shu army, which forced Zhuge Liang to abandon the Longyou in his hands and start retreating towards Shu Han instead. In this way, the first Northern Expedition, which was originally in a good situation, ended in the defeat of Zhuge Liang.
It can be said that it was precisely because Ma Tan did not listen to advice and used troops indiscriminately that it led to the loss of Jieting and the complete failure of the First Northern Expedition!However, some people have different opinions on this, because Ma Yantun soldiers on the mountain, condescendingly failed to defeat the Wei soldiersWhen the road is down, and the Wei army is tough, how can he win?If Ma Tan goes down to the village, in fact, the final result will be the loss of the street pavilion!
So is this statement true?Does that make sense?Let's take a look at what Sima Yi said!
Sima Yi couldn't have said it more clearly
In fact, Sima Yi has already said it very clearly about the way to successfully guard the street pavilion, but many people don't understand it!
As a top military strategist, Sima Yi, like Zhuge Liang, knows the importance of the street pavilion, so when Zhuge Liang sent Ma Tan to guard the street pavilion, Sima Yi also sent Zhang He to let him quickly enter the street pavilion, in a vain attempt to occupy the street pavilion in advance. It's just that when the Wei army arrived at the street pavilion, they found that the Shu army had already defended it, which suddenly made Sima Yi's eyes dark!
Original text: Sima Zhao was ordered to probe again, and when he saw his father, he said: "There are soldiers guarding the street pavilion." Yi sighed and said: "Zhuge Liang is really a god, I might as well too!."”As soon as Sima Yi heard that Zhuge Liang had already sent troops to guard the street pavilion, he was immediately deflatedthinks that Zhuge Liang is really a god, and he is not his opponent。It can be seen from Sima Yi's words that if Ma Jian really went down to the village according to Zhuge Liang's order, Sima Yi would not be able to beat him at all!
However, soon after, Sima Yi got another piece of news, that is, although there were defenders in Jieting, Ma Tan pulled the large army to the mountain, and the Shu army did not go down to the village at all, which suddenly made Sima Yi happy!
Original text: Zhao said: "The man personally sentry, there is no fence on the road, and the army is stationed on the mountain, so he knows that it can be broken." Yi Daxi said: "If the soldier fruit is on the mountain, it is the angel who has succeeded!"”As soon as Sima Yi heard that Ma Tan was on the mountain and did not go down to the village, he said that this was an opportunity for God to let him succeed in seizing the street pavilion, obviouslyHe thinks it's a mistake to go to the mountainThe only way for Ma Tan to really be able to defend the street pavilion is to go down to the village!
In the end, Sima Yi personally went to the battlefield to investigate, and found that Ma Jian was really stupid to keep the army on the mountain, and immediately saidMa Tan has a false name, but he is a mediocre ear, and led the army to successfully defeat Ma Tan, and the street pavilion has changed hands since then!
Conclusion
In general, judging from Sima Yi's statement, the only way to guard the street pavilion at that time was to go down to the village and live on the mountain condescendingly like Ma Yan, which was just a mediocre move!Therefore, based on the views of top strategists such as Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang, if Ma Tan is in charge, he should be able to defend the street pavilion!
