Chapter 1080: Liu Yuhao's speculation
In the "Hanshu - Art and Literature Chronicles", the military family is subdivided into four schools: military power strategists, military situation experts, military yin and yang experts, and military skill experts, and Xiang Yu is positioned as a military situation expert.
In the past, Liu Yuhao didn't quite understand why Ban Gu would give Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, such a position, but today, when he saw the dense small seal on the sheepskin roll, all his doubts were solved.
There is a cloud in the soldiers: "Therefore, those who are good at fighting seek the situation, and do not blame others, so they can choose people and let the situation go." Those who are in power are also their fighters, such as turning wood and stone. The nature of wood and stone, peace is quiet, danger is moving, square is stopped, and circle is lined. Therefore, the momentum of good fighters, such as turning a round stone in the mountain of a thousand people, is also powerful. ”
If you put Xiang Yu's more than 70 battles in his life, why he won all battles, how to recognize the shape and build momentum and win all battles, and the confirmation of the sheepskin roll strategy, Liu Yuhao will naturally know why Ban Gu called Xiang Yu a soldier situationist.
To lead troops to fight and win battles, as the commander of a war, you must know how to attack and defend.
To fight, we must win.
This question is the simplest, but the simplest, and it often contains the truth.
The purpose of war is to preserve oneself and destroy the enemy. That is to say, in order to achieve this purpose, one must keep it, and if you don't keep it, how can you save yourself? Second, if you don't attack, you won't be able to destroy the enemy. The defense must be defended, and the attack must be attacked.
When the enemy is strong, of course, you have to defend, and you have to defend, as Sun Wu said: "hide under the nine lands", so that the enemy wants to find you to fight but can't find it, and try to avoid a decisive battle with the enemy when the conditions are unfavorable; When the enemy's strength is insufficient, and his own strength is already sure that he can be defeated, he should take the initiative to attack, choose the strategy of "attacking", surprise the enemy, be unstoppable, and "move above the nine heavens".
In this way, according to the strength of both the enemy and us, if we can attack, we will attack, and if we can't, we will defend, and we will grasp the opportunity to attack and defend, so that we can truly preserve ourselves and destroy the enemy. This is the most basic principle of fighting with troops.
However, there are not many times to win in absolute terms, and winning when it seems impossible to win is a military master. Summing up Xiang Yu's experience of winning a hundred battles in his life, the essence of it lies in attacking.
In his life, he attacked more and defended less, because at the end of the parchment scroll was written a text: "Therefore, if the victorious soldier is called a baht!" It can be seen that Xiang Yu was the first military genius to understand what the best defense is offense.
"Brother Liu, I always thought that Xiang Yu was a martial artist, but I didn't expect him to have books left."
Although he didn't know what was written on the small seal on the parchment scroll, Fuji Yi could feel from the excited expression on Liu Yuhao's face that what the parchment scroll recorded was probably Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, who had his own experience in using soldiers.
Liu Yuhao nodded and smiled, waved his arms, and said excitedly: "When this object is taken back to China, I don't know how many people will bite off their tongues in shock." ”
Liu Yuhao, who is familiar with the history of various periods, clearly remembers that in the face of the Qin army in Julu, Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, was so brave and good at fighting, and the Jiangdong disciples led by himself won more with less, shocking the princes of the Quartet.
While speaking, Liu Yuhao seemed to see Xiang Yu, who was stained with blood, swaying at thousands of troops, and the shouts of Chu Jun resounded in the sky, he had never had such a real feeling when he read books before.
But in the face of the real overlord gun and parchment scroll, Liu Yuhao was excited, I don't know if it was Sima Qian's pen or the deafening cry of battle existed in the void.
Teng Yi didn't understand much of that, shook his head ignorantly, and said jokingly: "Brother Liu, can you really be willing to hand over this old object with a wide open door?" ”
Over the years, Teng Yi has slowly figured out Liu Yuhao's temperament.
As long as it is a good object, Liu Yuhao will generally treasure it himself, in Liu Yuhao's view, money is like dung, as long as he wants, he can have it at any time, but missing those old objects that cannot be copied can make him regret it.
Liu Yuhao smiled, squeezed his eyes at Tengyi, and said, "I must have kept the overlord gun for myself, the parchment roll, and it is only right to give it to the teacher." ”
Fuji Yi smiled and said, "That's right, you don't look like an archaeologist from a professional class now. ”
"Huh? So what do you say I'm like? ”
Liu Yuhao was stunned, and looked at the smiling face of the Fuji Yi thief with a puzzled expression.
"Do you need to ask? Everyone knows you're a profiteer right now. ”
As soon as Teng Yi was about to speak, Li Lumei's cheerful laughter like a silver bell came from outside the door, and naturally, the words that evaluated Liu Yuhao as a profiteer also came out of her mouth.
Liu Yuhao's old face turned red, and he suddenly felt a sense of madness, and smiled helplessly: "Sister, am I a profiteer in your heart?" ”
The door of the living room was pushed open, and Li Lumei and He Jiayi walked in together.
"Am I wrong?"
The bright and moving Li Lumei walked in front with her hands supporting her bulky waist, becoming more and more charming, and glanced at Liu Yuhao after entering the door, pursed her lips and smiled: "I have never seen a more treacherous profiteer than you, in your Haoyi jewelry, sesame cakes can be sold into gold ingots, what is not a profiteer?" ”
Liu Yuhao smiled awkwardly, pouted and said, "Sister, you really wronged me, I don't believe you asked Jiayi, I never ask about business, it has always been Brother Qin's control." ”
Xiao Nizi was honest, blinked her beautiful big eyes a few times, shook her little head, and said crisply: "I don't know." ”
"Ugh"
Liu Yuhao's embarrassed face turned red suddenly, and he shook his head and smiled.
The two women had actually heard from Teng Yi that Liu Yuhao had discovered the hidden secret in the Overlord Gun, but they had something to do just now, so they delayed it until they had time to come over.
As a result, before entering the door, Li Lumei heard the conversation between Liu Yuhao and Teng Yi, how could Li Lumei, who has always been known for her sharp teeth and sharp mouth, let go of such a good opportunity to tease Liu Yuhao?
For antiques, Li Lumei has always been not very interested, and because she was tired of being pregnant with a child, she found a place to sit down after a few laughs, leaned on the armrest of the sofa, brushed her black hair with one hand, and looked at Liu Yuhao with a smile before asking, "I heard that you found a baby again?" ”
Speaking of the baby, Liu Yuhao immediately became energetic, smiled and pointed to the parchment scroll still in the basin and said: "Sister, this is not just the word baby can be interpreted, I estimate that once this military book appears in the hands of the teacher, Chinese and foreign scholars will be shocked." ”
Liu Yuhao's words are true, in the unearthed terracotta warriors and horses of Qin Shi Huang, there are cavalry, they are all dressed in light armor or no armor, holding bows and arrows in their hands, and lined up on the flanks of chariots and infantry for cover.
It can be seen that the role of cavalry at that time was not prominent.
But what is surprising is that Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, actually wrote a special discussion on the role of cavalry on the battlefield, which is simply incredible, and this parchment scroll has an immeasurable effect on the old man Qi and their study of ancient history.
You must know that even the most valuable historical relics often appear duplicates or similar objects, but the parchment scroll written by Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, is the only one in the world.
Its preciousness is probably more than many historical relics!
In the minds of the professionals of the old man Qi, the most primitive historical information is precious, even if it is not an artifact, it is not much different from the artifact, and the so-called ancient porcelain Gaoyu is not happy for them, and it is not sad to lose.
However, Liu Yuhao didn't plan to explain these things to Li Lumei and them, even if they did, I am afraid that they would not understand what Old Man Qi was thinking for a while.
"Ah, is this really Xiang Yu's military book?"
Xiao Nizi knows a little about some ancient characters, but she still can't understand it, but she has lived in the military camp since she was a child, and she naturally has a certain understanding of the military books of the ancients, so she exclaimed in a low voice with surprise on her face.
Liu Yuhao nodded and smiled, and said: "In the past, I suspected that Xiang Yu had a mature cavalry theory, but after reading this parchment scroll, my thoughts became even more firm. ”
"Why do you say that?"
Li Lumei was curious, and she didn't wait for Liu Yuhao to finish speaking, and immediately pursed her mouth and asked.
Asked these professional questions, Liu Yuhao naturally began to dance again, and replied with a smile: "Do you know the battle of Pengcheng?" ”
"You know, it's the myth and legend that Xiang Yu defeated Liu Bang's 560,000 with 30,000 people!"
Xiao Nizi nodded her little head, looked at Liu Yuhao with a gentle face, and her water-cutting eyes flashed with a touch of softness, like a swaying lilac under the moonlight.
Seeing Xiao Nizi's delicate and lovely side, Liu Yuhao was stunned for a moment, his heart fluttered, and he almost lost his temper on the spot.
"Keep talking!"
Xiao Nizi's apricot eyes were slashed, her face flushed, her soft lips flashed with a faint brilliance, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Liu Yuhao.
"Do you remember the book about the situation before the Battle of Pengcheng?"
Liu Yuhao smiled, and without waiting for Xiao Nizi to answer, he asked and replied to himself: "As early as when Liu Bang was in the Three Qins, Xiang Yu had a premonition that Liu Bang would advance eastward, and the fact is that the army of 560,000 was mighty, and Liu Bang occupied Chu in only a few months. At this time, Xiang Yu fell into an unprecedented crisis. ”
Xiao Nizi nodded and said, "This teacher talked about when I was in school at the Military Academy. ”
Liu Yuhao said: "Xiang Yu is facing a two-front battle at this time, the enemy on his back and back, and the great disparity in strength, but to people's surprise, the final result is that Xiang Yu won the war and wiped out Liu Bang's 560,000 army with 30,000 people. ”
"What does this have to do with cavalry?" Li Lumei was still puzzled, and asked with a frown.
Xiang Yu devised a bold strategic plan, and he used the generals to lead the army to continue to pacify the Qi State as a means to confuse Liu Bang. And he personally led 30,000 elite soldiers to detour to the rear of Pengcheng, using Pengcheng as bait to lure Liu Bang to the bait, and then attacked Liu Bang's rear. ”
After saying this, Liu Yuhao smiled and said very confidently: "I estimate that the 30,000 elite soldiers are actually the cavalry trained by Xiang Yu, otherwise it will be impossible to achieve the effect of giving Liu Bang a fatal blow, and all of Xiang Yu's experience will be in the near future, and the teacher can find the answer in this parchment scroll." ”
