Chapter 1904 Lectures in the martial arts hall, undefeated is victorious


    When Fei Qian watched Liu Bei leave, he felt somewhat emotional.


    When Fei Qian was young, he first read The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and he liked Liu Bei. He felt that Liu Bei was surrounded by good brothers, but after reading the Three Kingdoms later, he felt that Cao Cao was better. I am willing to consider some issues from a relatively more objective perspective, rather than just relying on preferences.


    There is no doubt that when Mr. Luo was writing Liu Bei, Mr. Luo poured a lot of emotion into it. In his pen, Liu Bei is a glorious and beautiful image, and also the best representative of the protagonist in Luo Lao''s heart. After all, this guy Zhang Shicheng, to Mr. Luo, is a bit like an idiot who cannot be supported.


    But regardless of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, just looking at historical records, Liu Bei is really not very lucky. The family is poor, there are no famous ancestors and brothers, and even his own father is gone, so he sells shoes and weaves bed sheets with his mother at home to make a living. This was a very bad thing at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.


    In other words, Liu Bei''s starting point is very low.


    If you come from a bad background, then go to study, but you can''t learn very well, "I don''t like reading very much, I like dogs, music, and beautiful clothes." There are also students who are a little vain.


    According to the records in the Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms, it is called "the first master has many defeats", that is, in the midst of constantly working for others and changing jobs, Liu Bei passed the age of 30 or 40 without knowing it. During the Battle of Chibi, Liu Bei four Seventeen.


    When you are young, before stepping into the society, you will have more or less a premium for your talent and value. You have too little understanding of the cruelty of the society. It is like asking about your salary expectations before graduation. Thousands of people feel that they have lost money, and then when they really arrive at the company...


    Smooth sailing is always a blessing. The reality is that most people need to struggle in the long and tortuous bottleneck to find the bright exit, just like the birth of life.


    Why many people like the Three Kingdoms is because they can always find themselves in the Three Kingdoms.


    And Liu Bei is a commoner hero. It is a hero who relies on his own struggle, keeps falling down in the mud pit, keeps getting up, and finally stands on a high position.


    In order to be such a hero who represents ordinary people to a certain extent, and to give ordinary people more hope of being able to succeed, Fei Qian is unwilling to just kill Liu Bei, even if he does so, there will be risks.


    Because Fei dived into Liu Bei, he also saw himself.


    Fei potential future generations, is also an ordinary person. I don’t have any family background to rely on, all my hard work comes from myself, and I’m not even as good as Liu Bei. After all, Liu Bei has brothers, and Fei Qian doesn’t even have any brothers, but he does have wine and meat friends. He usually laughs and laughs like he is closer than anyone else, but in reality You can''t count on something going wrong.


    The first company Fei Qian worked for in his later generations was a private company. When he joined the company, he met a self-made boss and listened to the boss’ impassioned speech. He immediately felt that he, too, could achieve a career just like the boss. However, with the passage of time, Fei Qian discovered that, in fact, the upper echelons of private companies are all relatives of the boss...


    Of course, if these relatives are as capable as the founder and boss of the company, it''s not a big deal, but that''s the problem. Who would like a person who spends three days fishing and two days posting on the net, can''t find anyone when something goes wrong, and his subordinates have to recite it when he gets in trouble, and when he arrives at the company, he doesn''t reward the advanced, but stares at the deductions and fines every day?


    And the point is, these people don''t see this as a problem.


    Later, Feiqian went to another company, which was probably a semi-business type. Although there was no large group of relatives of the boss, after all, the company was bigger, but there were more "cliques" and "factions". People from the province, newcomers, and old people are even more complicated, even more complicated than the current Jingzhou gentry system. Although handling affairs also depends on ability, it also depends on faction and relationship. Sometimes even faction and relationship are more important than ability.


    Back then, Fei Qian was trying to survive in the cracks of different factions, just like the current Liu Bei is struggling in the cracks of different princes.


    So, give Liu Bei a little more hope, even if he has fulfilled some of his own expectations back then.


    Of course, these are limited.


    It''s like a favor, it will get thinner if you use it.


    Now Liu Bei is already very thin, at least much thinner than when Fei Qian first arrived in the Han Dynasty.


    While thinking, Fei Qian took Huang Xu and Xu Chu out of the general''s mansion and turned into the lecture hall.


    Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, and Tai Shici have already gone to their respective garrison theaters in advance. In the current martial arts lecture hall, there are some middle and upper-level captains, such as Zhang Xiu, Ganfeng Li Dian and others, and after today''s martial arts lecture, these people It will basically be scattered to various places, and then wait for the next collection.


    『General Hussars is here! 』


    The guard standing under the hall shouted loudly, and all the military academies in the hall stood up one after another.


    "present! 』


    Fei Qian nodded slightly, passed with his head held high among the crowd, and sat down at the head, then waved his hand and said, "Excuse me, everyone sit down." 』


    『Thank you, my lord! ’ Everyone answered in unison, and then sat down one after another.


    Feiqian looked around, and then asked Huang Xu to hang the first brocade picture he brought in the hall, "Today''s teaching is "odd"!" 』


    Raiders, don''t mean simply ambushing, or crossing the mountains and forests, interspersing behind the enemy''s back, etc., but reserve means when confronting, concentrate a small number of elite cavalry or infantry, and directly attack the opponent''s coach''s main formation from a suitable angle, or It is to tear apart the formation of the opponent''s two wings, forming a gap to directly threaten the opponent''s coach, and carry out beheading, or to cause psychological pressure on the enemy''s coach to cause panic, causing the opponent''s command to fail, and then the army advances in parallel to cover and kill, and the victory is determined.


    That is, "capture the thief first and capture the king".


    This is a fighting style that is more suitable for Fei Qian''s command, and it has become the fighting style adopted by many generals. Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Tai Shici, and now even Xu Huang also use this method.


    It shows that this set of tactics is relatively mature, and it has become a fighting method that is very suitable for Fijian soldiers.


    Why is it more suitable for Fiqian''s subordinates?


    The first aspect is that the soldiers under Fei Qian''s command are better than ordinary county soldiers, or the ordinary soldiers of other princes are stronger. On the other hand, most of Fei Qian''s soldiers are The people of Liangbin, and for these people on the border of the Han Dynasty, they are also very accustomed to this method of warfare after long-term confrontation with the Hu people.


    『Use strange, be sure to rely on! ’ Fei Qian pointed to the diagram of the battle formation on the brocade map, ‘Only by aligning with each other can we win by surprise! Just look at this picture, the general of the town army in Runan defeated seven times the enemy with 2,000 cavalry, and more than 10,000 yellow scarves...』


    Thanks to the cultural education and martial arts system implemented in Fiji''s army, basically every battle will form an archive similar to the battle map, recording the situation of the battle at that time.


    What Xu Huang used was a typical cavalry pull, and the attack tactic after the opponent''s formation showed a flaw, this is a kind of use that can be called "odd".


    『Before breaking out, you need to check carefully! After breaking the formation, you need to choose carefully! ’ Fei Qian pointed and said, ‘The general of the town army used 500 cavalry to plunder the front. Firstly, he will involve the enemy army, and secondly, he can check the enemy’s formation...Where there is a trap, overturn, pit, rejection, stabbing, the enemy army circles around the road , When advancing and not advancing, when retreating and not retreating, when people disperse but the flag does not fall, etc., there must be a difference, so you can''t trade in...」


    『After the formation is broken, it may be driven, chased, pierced, or dispersed,’ Fei Qian continued, 『It should be determined by the shape of the enemy, and you should not be greedy for a moment, but it will ruin the big thing. The general of the town army broke through the left wing of the Yellow Turban. Because of the long drive, the horses were also exhausted, and the morale of the Yellow Turban was weakened, and they had no intention of resisting. Time, it all depends on one action...」


    『To be a general, to be a person of tomorrow, earth, and earth, you need to know the sun, moon, and stars,’ Fei Qian looked around for a week, 『Don’t stick to one method, and don’t follow the rules. Only by integrating and understanding, and using yin and yang together, can you know...』


    For Gan Feng, Zhang Xiu and others, this fighting style is already a kind of ability integrated in their blood. After all, they have basically done this in the process of fighting against the barbarians for so many years, but there is no such thing as It''s just that Fei Qian can sum it up and form a more refined theory.


    But for Li Dian, this is a whole new world...


    At this moment, Li Dian finally understood why the princes of Shandong were always at a disadvantage when confronting Fei Qian. Not to mention other aspects, just this kind of tactics, even if Cao Cao came, would still find it very difficult.


    After all, Li Dian was captured twice, not in a normal confrontation, but now when Li Dian replayed it again, he found that even if he confronted head-on, it would be difficult to resist the elite assault of Fei Qian''s command, and there were even some who were captured before the battle. The possibility of beheading, suddenly felt the cold swish on the back of his neck, and the cold sweat was pouring down, and he couldn''t help but secretly called a fluke in his heart.


    Fei Qian looked around for a week, paused, and gave everyone some time to think.


    In fact, this kind of tactic was used best by Liu Bei among the Three Kingdoms in history, but it was a pity that he was led astray by Brother Zhu in the later stage... Well, in fact, Brother Zhu cannot be blamed. A new source of generals from the North...


    So, in fact, Brother Zhu chose Jiang Wei in the later stage, also trying to copy Liu Bei''s tactics? After all, only Jiang Wei was born in the Northland, and Wei Yan, who was rebellious in the back of his head, was an outlier in Nanyang.


    Huang Zhong''s battle at Dingjun Mountain in Hanzhong was the last of this kind of elite warfare in the Northland. Zhan Yuan, Yuan''s army was defeated...』


    There is no so-called strategy in the romance, and there are no false gimmicks. The actual battle process is rough and direct. Xiahouyuan''s soldiers were also elite, so Huang Zhong brought a more elite soldier to boost morale, and directly attacked Xiahouyuan''s main formation. He also used golden drums to strengthen the connection between the soldiers, and at the same time overwhelmed the opponent in terms of momentum. In the end, Xia Houyuan was beheaded and won a big victory.


    This battle mode is also limited, because such a battle requires an elite unit with strong combat effectiveness. If such a "surprise" army has limited combat effectiveness, then using it to assault the enemy''s main formation is undoubtedly self-defeating. perish.


    Under Fei Qian''s command, whether it is in terms of equipment or training, the quality of Fei Qian''s soldiers is better than that of other princes. Therefore, at this stage, there is no need to worry too much about this issue.


    But it doesn’t mean that this method of combat has no other weaknesses at all…


    In history, when Cao Cao faced Ma Chao, he gathered generals to discuss, and there was a suggestion that "Kanxi soldiers are strong, learn spears, and you can''t be a forward if you are not selected." However, Cao Cao said, "The battle is up to me, not to the thief." . Although thieves are proficient in spears, they will not be able to pierce them, but the lords can only watch their ears..."


    It can be seen that at that time, Cao Cao recognized and valued this kind of Northland assault tactics. The generals felt that if they wanted to fight, they must have elite vanguard troops to form a counterattack. Based on Cao Cao''s previous experience in fighting Lu Bu and Liu Bei, He chose another method, "Don''t fight against the wall", in simple terms, it is not to face the anus, because the **** is not enough.


    This is the second weakness of the Northland tactics.


    Fei Qian asked Huang Xu to put on the second brocade picture.


    Xu County map.


    At that time, Fei Qian and Cao Cao''s army were facing each other far away, and there was no real fight, but afterward, Fei Qian still asked people to draw such a battle map based on the situation at the time.


    『Our side has about 8,000 elite cavalry. The enemy has about 30,000 infantry, more than 1,000 cavalry, 2,000 Wuhuan cavalry, and one city. All in all, it''s probably five times as powerful as the enemy..." Fei Qian roughly described the formation of the enemy and us, and then said, "If we fight, what should we do? Each has his own strategy, and it will be handed over in an hour! 』


    From a certain point of view, if the opponent has formed a relatively stable formation and has a large number of halberds, spears and large shields, it is not a good thing to use cavalry to attack the opponent''s line.


    For example, it is also a mountain battle. Dingjun Mountain can win, but it is defeated in Yiling. Lu Xun''s Northland attack tactics against Liu Bei was simply to take advantage of the intricate terrain in the Three Gorges area and not be able to hold on.


    Restricted by the terrain in the Three Gorges area, and perhaps Liu Bei''s own replacement of soldiers, the weak follow-up of the elite, in the end Liu Bei was unable to break through Lu Xun''s defense, let alone lead an elite team to successfully assault the opponent''s main formation, and eventually fell into a stalemate , The last glory was burned by a fire.


    For Liu Bei, his most profound problem was not his military defeat, but that he didn''t know what to do after the victory, and he didn''t know how to make good use of the victory, just like lamenting the tyranny under Mount Tai Like Confucius.


    In history, even against an opponent like Cao Cao, Liu Bei was able to rely on his own familiar fighting methods to achieve partial victories, but what happened after the victory often left him at a loss.


    For the Shandong gentry, for the Great Han Dynasty, the Northland man represented by Liu Bei is after all a hillbilly image, a warrior, and a "sturdy", unpopular and unable to fully integrate.


    In the end, with the spirit of perseverance and repeated defeats, Liu Bei was able to travel up and down the river, north and south, and went to Jingzhou to occupy Sichuan and Shu, and achieved a career. In the final analysis, it was not because of any new breakthroughs in northern tactics, but because of Brother Zhu. In Longzhong, he pointed out to Liu Bei what should be done behind the battle, evolved from tactics to strategy, repaired the leaky board, and transformed the tactical victory of local assaults into a three-legged world pattern...


    As for the current Liu Bei, the board is still leaking.


    And no one can make it up.


    Brother Pig should still be in Jingxiang now...


    For an hour, whether it was long or short, everyone in the hall finally handed in their strategies one after another.


    Fei Qian roughly read the strategies and theories submitted by everyone, smiled slightly, and then said: "Lieutenants Zhang and Li, come forward!" 』


    Naturally, it is impossible for Fei Qian to say that he came to the martial arts hall because he was idle and bored. He naturally had his own considerations when he came to the martial arts hall. Shangfei Qian is also almost equivalent to the inheritor and promoter of this tactic in the North.


    This is a good thing, but it is also easy to form a kind of inertia, causing the generals to use this tactic blindly, and there is no guarantee that they will encounter the "Battle of Yiling". Therefore, Fei Qian must emphasize the weakness of this relatively large-scale tactic again...


    Because at the current stage, if the quality of the elite under Fei Qian''s command is ranked second, there is really no one who dares to rank first, so as long as it is normal and steady, at least it can remain undefeated in the confrontation with a high probability. If you blindly rely on martial bravery and greedy for merit, you will most likely be like Zhang Liao. Even if you win in the end, you will lose your troops and lose your generals.


    Zhang Xiu and Li Dian looked at each other and walked forward.


    Fei Qian signaled the two to stand on both sides of the hanging battle map, Zhang Xiu represented Fei Qian''s side, and Li Dian represented Cao Cao''s side, and began to "talk on paper".


    The most taboo thing to talk about on paper is to disregard the facts, or be out of touch with reality, but those present are basically middle- and upper-level school officers who have rich practical combat experience and have commanded soldiers. steelyard.


    Li Dian looked back slightly at Fei Qian.


    Fei Qian nodded with a smile.


    Li Dian felt at ease, and began to confront Zhang Xiu. To be honest, when Li Dian was writing this simulated battle strategy theory, he was somewhat uneasy, because he felt that if Fei Qian and Cao Cao really fought under Xu County at that time, Fei Qian might not have much advantage...


    At first, Li Dian was worried that writing like this would make Fei Qian unhappy, but after thinking about it and hesitating again and again, he wrote it down according to his original idea, and also specifically noted why there was such a result...


    Soon, Li Dian and Zhang Xiu reached the most important point of disagreement. Zhang Xiu believed that after the cavalry pulled, Cao Cao''s main formation would collapse and disperse during the raid on Cao Cao''s main formation, and then it would be determined. victory.


    Li Dian thinks that Cao Cao''s formation will not collapse, at least not so quickly, and then the Cao brothers and Xiahou brothers around will quickly rush up to form a siege, and the one who will be defeated is likely to be Fei who is trapped in Cao''s formation. Submariner...


    The two could not settle down, and the ruling power returned to Fei Qian.


    Fei Qian first praised the two people for their way of arranging soldiers and horses, and then asked: "If a certain army is attacked, will you two come to help?" 』


    Zhang Xiu and Li Dian are naturally patting their chests and expressing their attitudes. Fei Qian nodded slightly, then looked at the other people in the hall, and said, "If this is the case with Captain Zhang and Li, let alone brothers and relatives?" What''s more, Cao Sikong is so deceitful, so he must be on guard. Zhang Xiaowei''s surprise attack on the main formation may not be right in his arms! 』


    Then Fei Qian roughly talked about how to do it if he really wanted to fight at that time. To put it simply, it is to use the high mobility of the cavalry to attack like a knife cutting flesh. Cao Cao''s only corresponding strategy is to shrink the array and compress the defense range, otherwise any prominent parts will be cut off...


    Once Cao Jun shrinks, Fei Qian will gain more initiative on the battlefield. He can choose to invade the rear or roam outside, but one thing is the same, that is, it is impossible to win quickly, and it is very likely that he will enter a tug-of-war. The tug-of-war was not the result Fiqian wanted.


    Of course, Fei Qian finally chose to discuss with Cao Cao, and there were also political considerations, and these naturally need not be explained to these military academies. Seek its victory! Do not seek victory in all battles, but seek an undefeated army! Today''s lecture, after-class handouts are summarized and distributed, everyone, please study...』


    Simply put, don’t wave!


    There are too many guys in history who went smoothly in the early stage and made waves in the late stage, but they ended up being sloppy to death. Fei Qian really doesn’t want himself to become a negative teaching material in the end...
