"Students, some time ago we talked about some background of the Three Kingdoms, in the continuous decline of the Han clan, the various princes fought for territory and gradually became stronger. Among them, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao in the north are the most eye-catching. Let's continue to talk about one of the three most famous battles in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the Battle of Guandu. ”

"In the previous lessons, we have compared the strength of the two sides, so I would like to ask the students to answer the reasons for the victory and defeat of the two sides in the battle of Guandu. ”

"Lu Qun", a professor of history at Yenching University, talks about the Three Kingdoms in this section.

Lu Qun is actually very interested in the history of the Three Kingdoms, and in his opinion, the history of the Three Kingdoms is no less wonderful than that of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Even, to some extent, more than that. It's just that the history of the Three Kingdoms is too complicated, but the history of the Three Kingdoms has not entered the public's field of vision. This time, taking advantage of the explanation of the Three Kingdoms, Lu Qun wanted to focus on explaining one of the three major battles in the late Eastern Han Dynasty: the Battle of Guandu.

Among them, the Battle of Guandu was the earliest battle that broke out during the Three Kingdoms period.

In this battle, Cao Cao not only eliminated Yuan Shao, but also gradually unified the north with this battle.

Even on this basis, Cao Cao has the capital to dominate the world.

After explaining the first few lessons, Lu Qun wanted to test the students' understanding of the battle of Guandu.

"Professor Yuan, I think the reason why Yuan Shao failed was because Cao Cao's strategy was properly deployed. Cao Cao did not completely put his forces at all the intersections, because the coastline was too long and the forces were too easy to disperse, but concentrated his forces in a few key positions. In addition, Cao Cao was also more clever than Yuan Shao in terms of tactics, repeatedly made surprise attacks, and then attacked with fire, defeating Yuan Shao in one fell swoop. ”

One of the students stood up to speak.

"Yes, it's just a one-sided summary. ”

Lu Qun nodded.

"Professor Yuan, I think the battle between the two sides also has a lot to do with the economies of both sides. Although Yuan Shao's army was ten times that of Cao Cao, the economic level of the areas occupied by Yuan Shao was not necessarily higher than that of Cao Cao. In the era of cold weapons, although military strength is also important, the rear economy also plays a vital role in supply. Cao Cao was able to defeat Yuan Shao because Cao Cao's economy had been able to continuously supply Cao Cao. Even if they have fewer troops, their equipment, grain and grass are definitely not weaker than Yuan Shao. ”

Another classmate also stood up and said analytically.

"Yes, that's very important. ”

This student can think of the economy, and Lu Qun still recognizes it.

"Do any of your classmates answer?"

looked at the audience, but at this time, Professor Lu saw a classmate sleeping in the audience.

Outrageous.

I even slept in my own class, and I didn't want to mix it up.

However, Lu Qunming was not angry on his face, but said in a slightly raised voice: "That classmate who is sleeping, you can answer this question." ”

"Ah...... Professor Lu, what are you asking?"

"Liu Qing", a classmate who sat down and slept, wiped his saliva.

If he hadn't pulled at the same table just now, he wouldn't have heard Professor Lu answer the question by name.

Alas.

He can't be blamed for that.

Last night, he watched the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and saw 1 o'clock.

And, in order to fully understand the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Qing also compared history while watching the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

It wasn't until he read the latest chapter that Liu Qing planned to rest.

It's just that although he rested, Mo Liuqing still couldn't stop being excited.

Compared with looking at historical materials, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is much more interesting than history.

Not only is it interesting, but even in terms of rigor, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is not necessarily weaker than orthodox history.

It's just a pity that I was too late last night, and I fell asleep during class that day.

"It seems that Liu Qing has studied history very much, and he doesn't even want to listen to lectures. ”

Lu Qun was well educated, but he still asked calmly: "What I asked just now was the Battle of Guandu, one of the three major battles in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. ”

"Ah, Professor Lu, you're asking about the Battle of Guandu. ”

Liu Qing was nervous just now, thinking that he was dead.

I don't want to, Professor Lu is asking about the battle of Guandu that he watched last night.

Just now, one of the two students answered the strategic deployment of the two parties, and the other answered the economic comparison between the two sides. Can you summarize the reasons for the victory and defeat of the two sides from another aspect?"

"Professor Lu, think about it. ”

Liu Qing touched his head.

He was seriously entangled, how should he answer this question?

In fact, this question is not difficult for Liu Qing at all.

Not only is it not difficult, on the contrary, Liu Qing can also find several reasonable explanations in this battle.

As for why he was entangled, he was thinking, should he answer according to the official history, or according to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms?

Just thinking about it, at this time, Liu Qing saw the two classmates next to him who couldn't help but laugh.

The two have always had a bad relationship with Liu Qing, and they usually tease Liu Qing with their knowledge of disciplines.

At this time, Liu Qing was assigned by Professor Lu to answer the question, and both of them looked lively.

"Hmph, if you want to see the excitement, then I will shock you. ”

Originally, I was still entangled in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and it was too absurd to answer the question of historiography.

But seeing the two sneering, Liu Qing didn't think about it, and said, "I don't agree with the statement of the two classmates. ”

"Oh, you don't agree with the two classmates?"

Lu Qun asked a little strangely.

He couldn't understand why Liu Qing suddenly said that.

"Then tell me your point. ”

"Professor Lu, I think that the reasons that affect a battle seem to have a lot to do with the strength of the army and the economy. But since it's a war, it's a war between people. And the most important thing in the war between people is people. ”

"People?"

Lu Qun hadn't thought about this idea, but since a student mentioned it, he also wanted to hear it.

"Let's first compare the heads of the two camps, one is Yuan Shao, the other is Cao Cao, both are princes of the Three Kingdoms period. But the minds of the two parties are very different. Yuan Shaoqing is arrogant, and Cao Cao is rigorous and pragmatic. Yuan Shao controlled the army and indulged, and Cao Cao controlled the army strictly. Yuan Shao is magnanimous on the surface, but he has a small belly and chicken intestines in his heart, and he employs people nepotism. Cao Cao has a small belly on the surface, but he is not suspicious of employing people, as long as he has talent, no matter whether the other party's temper is good or bad, and whether his attitude towards himself is good or bad, Cao Cao will use it...... Regardless of anything else, we can see from this that Yuan Shao's heart is not Cao Cao's opponent at all. ”

This is, of course, Guo Jia's ten defeats and ten wins in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

As soon as such a point of view came out, Lu Qun's eyes suddenly lit up: "Keep talking." ”

It is precisely because of the personalities of the two that this affected the victory or defeat of the battle of Guandu. For example, on Yuan Shao's side, Yuan Shao was arrogant and could not distinguish between right and wrong, and Yuan Shao was powerful in appearance, but various forces were divided internally. For example, the strategist Tian Feng, because he listened to the villain's words, Yuan Shao not only did not listen to Tian Feng's opinion, but also killed Tian Feng. In addition, it was precisely because Yuan Shao could not make full use of his talents that his advisor Xu Yu rebelled, and finally gave Cao Cao a big gift. On the other hand, on Cao Cao's side, because Cao Cao knew how to make good use of people, when the war came, his strategists and generals were all of the same mind as Cao Cao, and even, when Cao Cao hesitated, some of his strategists also stepped forward to solve problems for Cao Cao. The two sides are one positive and the other is negative, and the outcome of the war is already doomed before the war has even begun. ”

This is certainly not a.

Although what Liu Qing said was derived from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, although the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is, it is very rigorous, and many of the contents are no different from history, but the author cleverly describes the Battle of Guandu from another angle.

Professor Lu was also surprised by this answer.

"Liu Qing, did you summarize this?"

Lu Qun was shocked.

Although Liu Qing's analysis is not completely accurate, it has brought new ideas to traditional historical research.

Yes.

Why before they just analyzed the military power, the economy, these things.

Why didn't you think about analyzing people?

Talent is the main body of war.

"Well, no. ”

This is certainly not what he summed up.

If he's so awesome, what class will he take?

"So where did you come from for such an analysis? ”

"From the book. ”

"Oh, which book?"

Lu Qun became extremely interested.

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms. ”

Liu Qing said.

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms?"

There is something strange about Lu Qun.

He hadn't read the book.

"Which one wrote it?"

"Mo Bai. ”

"Mobai?"

Lu Qun was dumbfounded: "Mo Bai also wrote the official history?"

"It's not. ”

Liu Qing was a little embarrassed: "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is not an official history, he is a book." ”

“。 ”

Lu Qun vomited some blood.

Oh, my God......

Take the content of it to analyze the official history, what is this called?

"We are studying the official history, Liu Qing, let's read less in the future. ”

Without saying anything more, Lu Qun ordered Liu Qing to sit down.
