time
The battle of Wei River (AD 2 1 1) should be exactly the Three Kingdoms period.
During the Sixteen Kingdoms Period of the Eastern Jin Dynasty (3 17- 420 AD), the northern regime rose and fell. Although they were called sixteen countries, they actually didn't take into account the regimes of China, Japan, Northern Wei, Tuguhun and Rouran. The qualities of the rulers of each regime are different from those of the three countries, so they are not as good as those of the three countries in the use of strategies. Most ethnic minorities are soldiers and cavalry. In order to maintain the national characteristics, the established regime adopts two military organizational systems. With the development of the war, dock-walled castles have been built all over the Central Plains, making it difficult for cavalry to attack. In addition, they need to expand their army. There are more and more infantry, but cavalry is still the main soldier. Ethnic minorities are light cavalry and use mobile tactics. But in the Central Plains, there are many docks and castles, and we use traditional phalanx tactics against the Han army. In addition, at this time, we had stirrups, so the two tactics began to combine, and there appeared heavy cavalry fighting in dense phalanx, and there appeared a destructive strategy of plundering people and materials and destroying the enemy's war potential.
The eastern Jin dynasty still followed the Wei-Jin military system, and the private soldiers in the music department were more developed. Because it is located in the south of the Yangtze River, the water army is developed. Not only did it have a company ship carrying 2000 people, but it also began to use a compass to navigate and invented a heavy weapon flyswatter in the docking battle.
Historical background
From Liu Bei's attack on Yizhou (now Chengdu) (see Yizhou War), the tripartite confrontation between the three countries officially began to take shape. In order to protect themselves and develop, the three countries constantly compete for strategic positions: Sun and Cao fought for Huainan, and successively won and lost in Hefei (now northwest of Hefei) (see the battle of Hefei), Wancheng (now north of Anhui buried hill) (see the battle of Wancheng) and Ruxuwu (now northeast of Anhui Wuwei); Liu and Cao fought for Hanzhong (now Shaanxi) (see the Battle of Hanzhong). After the war of Dingjun Mountain (now southeast of Mianxian County, Shaanxi Province), Cao Jun was defeated by Chang 'an (now northwest of xi 'an). Then Jingzhou fought three wars. Jingzhou Shu general Guan Yu took advantage of Liu Bei's attack on Hanzhong and Sun Quan's attack on Hefei, and attacked Fancheng (now Xiangfan, Hubei Province) in the north in an attempt to seize the second county of Jingzhou occupied by Cao Jun, in order to prepare for the implementation of Zhuge Liang's strategic plan of sending troops to restore Han Dynasty.
Sun Quan, on the other hand, teamed up with Cao Cao to take advantage of the emptiness behind Guan Yu, capture and kill Guan Yu by means of Monroe's attack, and capture Jiangling (see the Battle of Jiangling). In order to recapture Jingzhou, Liu Bei marched eastward to Wu, and was defeated by Lu Xun, the general of Wu, in the battle of Yiling. Sun Quan captured four counties in Jingzhou occupied by Shu, controlled the upper reaches and won the battle. Cao Cao used strategy to alienate Sun and Liu, and gained strategic initiative. Only Liu Bei lost his land and soldiers and became a loser in the triangle struggle. His strategic position was greatly weakened, and he could not realize the strategic plan of sending troops to restore Han.
After Cao Cao's death, Cao Pi abandoned the Han emperor to stand on his own feet, and Liu Bei and Sun Quan also proclaimed themselves emperors one after another, and the three countries stood firm. Wei Wendi Cao Pi attacked Wu twice because the water army was not strong and it was difficult to cross the natural barrier of the Yangtze River. After the death of Liu Bei, Emperor Zhaolie of Shu, Zhuge Liang quickly restored the alliance between Shu and Wu, got rid of the unfavorable situation of fighting on both sides, and then settled South China (now Yunnan, Guizhou and Southwest Sichuan) (see the battle of South China), consolidated the rear area and actively prepared for the northward advance. Five times Qishan (now Weishui in southeastern Gansu and Shuijian in Western Han Dynasty) attacked Wei, but all failed because of Wei Jun's policy of refusing to defend the city wall (see Zhuge Liang attacking Wei).
During this period, Sun Quan echoed Shu and attacked Wei in Huainan three times, all of which failed. General Si Mazhao, after mastering the power of Wei, began to plan plans to unify the whole country.
historical?figure
It is bound to say that one of the historical figures is Cao Cao and the other is Ma Chao. Needless to say, Cao Cao, and Ma Chao himself, when translating the original text, is:
Chao, Shu general, one of the five tiger generals. Father Teng, General Han Zheng. In seventeen years, he and his father Teng and Han Sui attacked Chang 'an and killed the general and Wang Fang. Chase after it by luring, avenge it, and engage in war. Cao Cao went to Hanzhong to vote for Zhang Lu, but was defeated by alienating others. To save Liu Zhang, the main battle was fought first, and Chao and Zhang Fei fought more than a hundred times. After being framed by Zhang Lu's counsellors, he voted for the former leader and threatened Liu Zhang to surrender, worshiping General Pingxi and former general, and later promoted to General Zuo. The late emperor proclaimed himself emperor, took Ma Chao as a general in title of generals in ancient times, and led Liangzhou to shepherd the western regions. After Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition, he visited the grave.
Zhuge Liang spoke highly of Ma Chao. "Meng Ji (Ma Chao word Meng Ji) is both civil and military, heroic and outstanding, and is the Lord of my life. When he was fighting with Yide, he was not as good as a beard (a beard refers to Guan Yu, with beautiful feathers and a beard, so it is a beard. " Yangfu also said: "I am confident and courageous, and I have won the heart of Qiang Hu." Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that Cao Cao once said, "I have no place to die until the horse dies."
Battle of Weishui
The battle of Weishui is the final decisive battle between Cao Cao and Ma Chao in Guanzhong, also known as the battle of Weinan.
Borrowing from the bibliography of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the important narrative chapter of this war is Volume 12, and its cause and effect are not limited to this. The original history book quoted: "When you fight with Kerry, you should choose the light soldiers first, and fight for a long time, that is, riding the tiger, breaking it, cutting it, adapting it, Li Kan and so on." The biggest battle in the history of the Three Kingdoms, Chen Shou only used more than 30 words to make a work, which is really a bit that. This battle is the most disparity in the history of China, and it is one of the most classic wars in the history of China War clearly recorded by American Western Military Academy.
In this war, the commanders of both sides showed their war literacy, which almost decided the direction of the whole war. The influence of the whole campaign also determines the historical trend of the last 500 years. This war is a miracle in the history of China, and it is also a miracle in the use of tactics in the history of war. In the meantime, the wonderful strategy and tactics, Cao Cao's mastery of the war environment such as climate and morale, and his foresight in using troops are by no means beyond the simple words in history books. It can be said that although this battle is not the most influential battle in the history of the Three Kingdoms, its influence on the situation of the Three Kingdoms is not as good as that of the three major battles of Guandu, Chibi and Yiling, but its far-reaching fortune is far from comparable to the three major battles.
