On the ancient battlefield, judging the strength of an army was not only based on the combat effectiveness of the individual and the whole, but also by observing whether the military discipline was strict. Only with the accumulation of layers of tough battles and achievements can the army reach the point where the enemy is terrified. Today, let's take a look at two of the most powerful armies in Chinese history.
The first is the white-robed army. There is an ancient proverb that says: "Famous teachers and generals should not be imprisoned, and thousands of troops and horses avoid white robes." It is unbelievable that this sentence is actually the prestige of Chen Qingzhi led by only 7,000 people. In the face of hundreds of thousands of Northern Wei troops at that time, Chen Qingzhi led the white-robed army to pass the pass and kill the generals repeatedly, all the way to the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty, with brilliant results, but there was no defeat, so that in the end, outside Luoyang City, children could hum white-robed songs. The reason why the white-robed army can reach such a terrifying state is not only because of Chen Qingzhi's leadership ability, but also because of the strict military discipline under his command.
The second is the Iron Eagle Guard. As a powerful Qin state, although it was a small country at the beginning, after a series of battles, the Qin state gradually rose to become the head of the seven kingdoms, and finally completed the great cause of unifying Liuhe and dominating the world. In the warlike Qin army, the Iron Eagle Guards are the elite among them, and all of them are the best warriors in the army. With the long sword as the main **, the Iron Eagle Guardian emerged in the war to recover Hexi and became a terrifying existence in the world. The evaluation of the strength of the Qin army in "Xunzi" is that "Qi's skills cannot be attacked, and the warriors of the Wei clan cannot meet the warriors of the Wei clan, and the warriors of the Wei clan cannot meet the sharp soldiers of Qin", in which the sharp warriors refer to the Iron Eagle Guards.
