In the world of the Warring States Period, how many military strategies were born, and how many famous generals on the battlefield shone brightly, but if there is no amazing strategy that amazes the world, the gathering between celebrities and scholars will have no interest in competing for discussion, and the battle will be considered a mediocre battle, and the general who commands the army will inevitably be accused of mediocrity. Even if they are defeated, everyone will come down to providence and luck and the like. Under the atmosphere of the Warring States period, famous wars emerged one after another.
For example, every time the Changping War was praised in history, the god of war Bai Qi surrounded and annihilated Zhao Kuo with equal forces; Sun Bin of Qi surrounded Wei to save Zhao, and a rescue battle was thrilling to the nations; The miracle of the long-distance raid battle, Qin Sima crossed the Qinling Mountains thousands of miles by mistake, and the light soldiers were in Shu; Qi Guotiandan's national defense war, six years to defend the lonely city of Jimo, and finally the fire bull array to restore the country in one fell swoop; Li Mu, who was the most awesome in the ambush war, was able to hide hundreds of thousands of soldiers in the plains and grasslands, and drove the Huns away in one fell swoop; The wonder of sniping is like Zhao Hao, the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road, and the first battle of Qin is defeated by a strong enemy in a bloody battle, and so on.
However, Wang Qian, one of the four famous generals of the Warring States Period, made great achievements, destroyed Chu in one battle, and then destroyed Yan, and finally destroyed Chu and helped Qin dominate the world. But the method and process of the debate Wang Jian is indeed not worthy of the old Qin people to sit together and chatter, at the end of the Warring States period, the old Qin people like to talk about the war the most, Wang Jian sent troops to win the battle, the old Qin people only have one sentence: "Look, the general won another battle!" ......The Admiral has won another battle! Then there was nothing more.
In contrast to each other, the young Wang Ben's reputation in the First World War of Wei rose and was talked about by the old Qin people all day long. To tell the truth, the wonder of Wang Ben's tactics made the old Qin people feel hearty: small battles are like pacifying the Korean chaos, and the eight-way army is dazzling; The rushing battle is like a flying horse attacking Chu, swift as lightning, ten cities under the sun, which can be called the most flying soldiers; A big war is like destroying Wei, using water as a soldier, and 50,000 horses to destroy a big country, it is simply a snake swallowing an elephant! None of these are available to Wang Qian. The old Qin people talked a lot about the battles fought by Wang Ben, for example, Wang Ben fought these battles, and the battle of the Central Plains must be another way of fighting, and it must be won, and there must still be no surprises, so there is nothing to say.
Since Li Xinwei led an army of more than 200,000 troops to attack Chu and returned from defeat, Lao Qin came back to his senses. At the beginning, the court decided on the strategy, only Wang Jian insisted on resisting the whole country, and the army of 600,000 could not attack Chu. However, as the monarch Yingzheng and Wang Ben, who has been listed as a famous general, the government and the opposition of the Qin State agree with Li Xin's style of play. Everyone still remembers that when Li Xin was planning the strategy, he expected that the number of troops of the Chu State would be at most 300,000. The Manchu civil and military forces recognized this. However, the fact of the battlefield is that there are more than 300,000 Chu troops in Qixia and Ruyin, not to mention the soldiers of Yingshou, the naval boat division and the private soldiers of the fiefdom of the Shi clan, which proves that the Chu State is extremely flexible.
Even if Li Xin's troops were not steady, would Li Xin's 200,000 troops be able to defeat Xiang Yan's more than 300,000 Chu troops? It's simply impossible. These were all suddenly awakened after the defeat on the battlefield, and only Wang Jian thought of it far before the army. What the country and the battlefield need is this kind of insight, this kind of foresight, this calm and sober of the premeditated period. Since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the battlefield has always been a wrestling field for the armies of both sides to fight for the country. It is self-evident whether there is an amazing strategic concept, whether there is a magical battle that makes people scream, and which is more important than the seemingly insipid strategy of defeating the enemy country, compared with the victory required by the great plan of the state, is self-evident. The so-called battle of wonder is bound to have uncertain risks because of its quest for wonder.
Wang Jian won in peacetime all his life, and because he did not seek the strange but only the victory, he must have a certain chance of winning. Therefore, King Jian of Qin was the general who destroyed the Six Kingdoms without defeat, and he was already the best in the world.
