The Three Kingdoms era at the end of the Han Dynasty was an era of many famous generals, in this era, there were all kinds of famous generals, and everyone's military style was also different.

Some famous generals belong to the kind of commander-level characters with extremely high comprehensive quality and relatively balanced abilities in all aspects, such as Cao Cao, Zhou Yu, Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, Lu Xun, Guan Yu, although it is a bit selfish to put the second master here, but there is actually no problem with the second master's use of soldiers, the problem is the second master's personality and temper.

Some famous generals belong to the kind of people who have a skill and are good at winning with their own strengths, such as Zhang Fei is invincible and fierce, Xu Huang is solemn and dignified, Zhang Liao's army rushes into battle, wins more with less, Xiahou Yuan raids thousands of miles, and the enemy is unprepared. is Lu Meng, who has always been criticized by later generations, is actually a master of psychological warfare who is good at taking advantage of information asymmetry and surrendering without a fight.

And Zhang He, who can leave his own mark in this era, naturally has a set of combat methods.

It is recorded in the history books that Zhang He was good at using "geographical convenience", that is, Zhang He was good at using the surrounding environment to create favorable combat conditions for himself, and then won victory. But to tell the truth, just from the records in the history books, I really can't see this.

For example, in Wakou Pass, Zhang He, a guy who is good at using "geographical advantages", was actually unsuspecting by Zhang Fei who took advantage of the "geographical advantages" of Wakou Pass to set up an ambush, and when he was caught, he was beaten violently, and finally had to climb the mountain to escape, and those who were good at "geographical advantages" finally suffered losses in "geographical advantages", and only Zhang He was the only one.

If you really want to find it from the original text recorded in the history books, what Zhang He is good at gives people the feeling that it is not a geographical advantage, but his tenacity.

Day and night, thousands of miles rushed to the street pavilion, relying on tenacity.

After all, Ma Tan did not let Zhang He force Zhang He to go up the mountain at that time, but took the initiative to go up the mountain himself, as for the issue of controlling the water source of the street pavilion, it is basically military common sense, and Ma Tan did not expect Zhang He to come so quickly, and it was too late to send heavy troops to protect the water source.

This tenacity can be seen almost everywhere in Zhang He's historical records.

For example, Zhang He repelled Ma overtime in Longxi. At that time, Zhang He was forced to march quickly on the rugged and difficult mountain road under Xiahou Yuan's urgent order, and finally relied on tenacity to lead the army into Longxi in advance, and cooperated with the local heroes to defeat Ma Chao, laying a solid foundation for Xiahou Yuan to march to Yongliang and drive away Ma Chao.

For example, in Dingjun Mountain, in the face of the siege of the superior army led by Liu Bei, although Zhang He was beaten very badly, he asked Xiahou Yuan for help again and again, but in the end he gritted his teeth and took his own guards to the front line to fight, and stubbornly held the defense line, forcing Liu Bei to temporarily withdraw and find another way.

Seriously, if it weren't for Xiahou Yuan who had nothing to do and went to repair the antlers and send him to death, the result of the battle in Hanzhong would be really hard to say.

It gives people the feeling that Zhang He can only exert his true combat effectiveness by relying on his tenacity in the face of extremely difficult conditions.

Zhang He has fought a battle for a lifetime, and there is only one example of failing to succeed in a desperate situation. It was in Mumendao, Zhang He was forced by Sima Yi to pursue Zhuge Liang, and then he was hit by an arrow in the knee.

Obviously, the current Zhang He has not yet reached the dying old age of Mumendao, and his heart has not been completely lost, once he is forced to be ruthless, Zhang He's combat effectiveness is still very terrifying.

This is the situation today.

The Wei army led by Wang Chang was surrounded in the central battlefield, and at the same time, there was a response mistake and was caught by the Shu army, forcing Zhang He to break through Gao Xiang's obstruction as soon as possible, otherwise as time passed, the Wei army in the central battlefield could usher in a collapse situation at any time.

Just like Zhang He defeated Feng Xi before.

Zhang He believes that what he can do, there is no reason why Zhang Xi can't do it.

And if there was no army led by Wang Chang, it would be impossible for Zhang He to complete the task of threatening Wuzhangyuan, so the main army of the Wei army in Meixian County would be really fierce.

Therefore, Zhang He was really ruthless.

The conventional combat method is that Gao Xiang, who is unable to break through Gao Xiang's defense in a short period of time, is not incompetent after all, although he is inferior to Zhang He in terms of ability and experience, but to delay time and prevent Zhang He from breaking through easily, Gao Xiang still has this ability.

Zhang He knew this very well, so Zhang He didn't think about using conventional methods to break through Gao Xiang's defense.

Zhang He decided to gather his soldiers, and then personally led the 500 front army as arrows to attack a point of Gao Xiang's defense line in a key breakthrough way.

I don't want to completely defeat Gao Xiang's department, but only tear a hole in the direction, and I can lead hundreds of people to break into the central battlefield.

And the remaining 1,000 people from Zhang He's department, what they have to do is to continue to fight with Gao Xiang's department, maintain this gap that Zhang He tore open, and wait until Zhang He takes over Wang Chang's department, and then retreat from this gap together.

There is a great price to pay for doing this, but Zhang He has no choice now.

Or, continue to fight with Gao Xiang on all fronts, hoping that Wang Chang can hold on for a long time, and wait until he has fully repelled Gao Xiang, and then go to support Wang Chang.

Or, at the cost of hundreds, or even thousands, under his command, he broke into the central position alone and rescued Wang Chang's troops. How much can be rescued, Zhang He really doesn't dare to ask too much in this regard.

And it turns out that Zhang He's trick is very effective.

Historically, whether Zhang He was a defender or an attacker, once Zhang He personally led the troops to charge into battle, he never lost. Even in Wakou Pass, Zhang He also took dozens of guards to kill Zhang Fei's encirclement, although it was a little embarrassing to climb the mountain and escape in the end, but at least he didn't lose his life.

Therefore, when Gao Xiang met a ruthless Zhang He who rushed into battle in person, it was normal that he couldn't stop it.

But Gao Xiang couldn't stop more than 500 soldiers in the front where Zhang He was, which didn't mean that Gao Xiang would let his defense line collapse.

Gao Xiang was valued by Liu Bei, and was led by Zhuge Liang to the Northern Expedition in history, and also once in the battle of Lucheng in history, he defeated Sima Yi in a frontal field battle and defeated the first 3,000 meritorious generals. Although it was completed under the dispatch of Zhuge Liang, Gao Xiang's own ability was still widely recognized.

Zhang He led a small number of elite soldiers to break into the central battlefield, Gao Xiang really couldn't stop it, but Gao Xiang was not completely disrupted by Zhang He's assault after all, he was still working hard to command the soldiers, counter-kill the Wei army that maintained the gap, and wanted to completely block the gap torn by Zhang He before Zhang He returned, so that Zhang He could be completely locked in the central battlefield.

Zhang He led about 500 soldiers to break into the central battlefield, and in the central battlefield, where more than 10,000 people were fighting together, 500 people could not play a big role at all.

And Gao Xiang's command of the operation was still very effective.

The soldiers who lost Zhang He's unified command could only barely maintain the gap opened by Zhang He under the command of the captain, but this gap was shrinking little by little.

It depends on whether Gao Xiang wants to command the soldiers to plug the gap, or Zhang He can take the lead in receiving the remnants of Wang Chang's army.

Gao Xiang was trying to make up for his mistakes, and in the central battlefield at this time, Zhang Xi also saw Zhang He's intrusion.

This made Zhang Xi very anxious.

Zhang He's intrusion has a very high symbolic significance.

Zhang He himself is the real commander of this trapped Wei army, and he is the leader of the troops to receive this army, so even if Zhang He only broke into the central battlefield with more than 500 people, the morale of the Wei army fighting hard in the central battlefield was doubled.

First, the coach personally rushed into battle and came to answer, which means that the coach never gave up on them, which will bring great desire to survive to the Wei army.

Second, Zhang He was able to break through the defense line of the Shu army with 500 soldiers, and now there are more than 5,000 remnants of the Wei army on the central battlefield, so many people, enough for Zhang He to take them out of the encirclement.

Therefore, Zhang He's intrusion had a very great impact on the central battlefield.

Especially after Zhang He broke in in a daze, he rushed directly to Wang Chang's Chinese army non-stop, once Zhang He and Wang Chang converged, it would be difficult for Liu Yin to stop the joint efforts of these two people to besiege.

At that time, the Wei army's central army and the front army will be completely connected, and it will be very difficult to divide and encircle this Wei army.

Therefore, Zhang Xi didn't have time to complain about why Gao Xiang didn't stop Zhang He, but hurriedly sent his last reserve of 1,000 people, asking them to make a detour to support Liu Yin, and at the same time let Liu Yin have to hold on for at least half an hour.

In this half an hour, Zhang Xi wanted the whole army to press and completely defeat the three thousand Wei soldiers of the front army.

For this reason, Zhang Xi also had to go to the front line in person, and now it is time to command the operation.

Whether Zhang He broke Liu Yin first, or Zhang Xi who broke the Wei army's front army first, this is the most critical victory or defeat point in this battle.

Whoever holds it in his hand will win the final victory.
