This is probably a vocabulary they have never heard of before.
That's right.
In fact, Liu Zheng also didn't understand why ancient wars always consisted of attacking the city, defending the city, and attacking and defending the city. After the city gate was broken, it was in a state of disintegration.
In fact, there are three main reasons why there were no street fighting in ancient times. First, "Sun Tzu's Art of War" said that when fighting an enemy, if there are ten times the enemy's number, encirclement and annihilation tactics are adopted. If the force is five times the enemy's, then
You can adopt frontal attack tactics. If your strength is only twice that of the enemy, you can only use tactics to separate the enemy and destroy it. If your strength is not as strong as the enemy, you can only adopt a strategy of changing offense to defense, waiting for reinforcements, or directly avoiding the enemy.
open.
so.
Since ancient times, in the battle to defend a city, the number of our own troops is smaller than that of the enemy, and much smaller. Therefore, in this case, street fighting will undoubtedly be an egg against a stone.
Secondly, street fighting consumes too much energy and consumes a lot of strength on both sides. In ancient times, the army was semi-privatized and semi-state-owned, and relied entirely on close combat. The strength of the troops was extremely huge.
Attrition. Therefore, whether it is a siege general or a city defending general, most of them are unwilling to fight in the streets. If they lose, they will take their own troops and retreat, and they can retreat strategically and make a comeback.
The third, of course, is the most important.
In ancient times, fighting relied on morale. The so-called strong momentum will be exhausted again and again. The city was destroyed, the people suffered, and the morale of the soldiers was low. How could they still think about fighting on the street?
Overall.
Why were there so few street fights in ancient times?
The structural foundations of ancient armies and modern armies are different.
Ancient weapons and modern weapons kill in different ways.
The application methods of ancient tactics and modern tactics are different.
but......
This turning point is important.
In ancient times, there was a huge victory similar to street fighting. It was the defense battle of the capital during the Ming Dynasty! The Oara army attacked the capital of the Ming Dynasty. A classic battle conducted by the Ming Dynasty under the leadership of Yu Qian, Minister of War, was able to
The Ming Dynasty continued to exist for hundreds of years.
In the final stage of this battle, Yu Qian pretended to be defeated and led the Oala army to Tucheng. The Oala army was ambushed by the Ming army lurking in the residences of Tucheng. They suffered numerous casualties. They were finally defeated and began to retreat.
However......
Today's situation is different again.
Because there are still 150,000 troops on our side!
On the opposite side, it was only 200,000!
It can be said that they are evenly matched.
The Yinzhou Army has strict discipline and is not seriously affected by morale.
There is another most important thing, that is, the cavalry of the Western Regions are not good at street fighting!
But Yinzhou soldiers have plate armor for self-defense, and can fight even if they are mounted or dismounted!
Then why...
Not coming to street fighting?
Since this driver has no danger to defend, street fighting is the first choice!
Liu Zheng knew that this idea was too bold, and it would be difficult for these people to accept it.
really.
Jiang Xuan was shocked and said: "Master, Master, this... this street fight..."
The other generals also took a deep breath.
This is too bloody, this is too fierce!
Liu Zheng laughed and said, "Jiang Xuan is scared?"
Jiang Xu was so excited that he loudly said: "I'm afraid of a hammer, sir. This time, Jiang Xuan will be the vanguard!"
Liu Zheng smiled and said: "Don't make trouble, Pioneer is not yours..."
Qin Changfeng was stunned: "Sir, Changfeng is willing to go!"
Liu Zheng shook his head: "It's not yours either."
Everyone was surprised.
If it’s not Qin Changfeng or Jiang Xuan, who could it be?
Just then.
A gust of fragrant wind blew by, and the accessories on her body were jingling. Reguli walked into the military tent. When she saw Liu Zheng, she smiled sweetly: "Guardian of the Country, does it smell good today? I'll give it to you after using it."
Where is the rose water you gave me? Can you come to my tent and sing over the wine?"
Everyone suppressed laughter.
Liu Zheng smiled and said: "The vanguard is the Loulan Army!"
"Bang!"
Reguli almost stopped standing and fell to the ground.
