Reflections on the Battle of Guandu 1 I think everyone has read The Romance of the Three Kingdoms written by Luo Guanzhong, which is one of my favorite books. There are many thrilling plots, colorful stories and many historical allusions, among which the battle of Guandu impressed me the most. The battle of Guandu, which lasted for nine months, was the second of three major battles in two stages: the heroic melee and the formation of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty.
Cao Cao used Xun You's plan not to save the white horse surrounded by Yan Liang, but to go to Yanjin first, feint Yuan Shao, and ask Yuan Shao to transfer troops to save it. Yuan Shao sent Yan Liang's reserve soldiers to stop Cao Cao. When Cao Cao saw that Yuan Shao had been tricked, he sent his main force to attack the white horse. Yan Liang was caught off guard and killed by General Guan Yu. Yuan Shao flew into a rage because of his lovelorn love, and let the whole army cross the river to pursue him. Cao Cao found that Yuan Jun was negligent in discipline, so he took advantage of this shortcoming and piled the spoils on the ground. Yuan Jun was trapped, so Cao Cao led a handsome army, crushed Yuan Jun and killed General Wen Chou. Later, when Cao Cao and Yuan Shao fought an offensive and defensive war, Yuan Shao's counselor Xu You left Yuan Shao to take refuge in Cao Jun, and revealed that Yuan Jun's grain and hay were piled up in the Wu Dynasty, so Cao Cao burned the Wu Dynasty overnight and cut off the supply of Yuan Jun, so Yuan Shao had to escape. Through this war, Cao Cao basically unified the north, but Yuan Shao's elite soldiers suffered heavy losses and never recovered. Through this campaign, we can see that Cao Cao is a good and resourceful man. Because when the white horse was besieged, he didn't save the white horse first, but adopted the method of "a diversion" by counselor Xun You, sent reserve soldiers to meet Yan Liang, dispersed Yuan Bing, and then solved the siege of the white horse with the main soldiers, beheaded Yan Liang, killed Wen Chou with tricks, burned the nest, and finally won. At the same time, Cao Cao is also a man who is good at employing people. He made friends with famous people in the world, made good use of people and let bygones be bygones. The best example is that Cao Cao took in Jia Xu, the brave general of Dian Wei who killed him, and made him work for himself. In the battle of Guandu, all the counselors expressed doubts about Xu You's surrender. Only Cao Cao obeyed public opinion, trusted Xu You, set fire to Wu Chao's grain depot, and won the battle.
Think about it, how many generals is Liu Bei? Except Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and Ma Chao, no other generals can be independent and lead troops at the front. There are also thousands of generals of Cao Cao, and countless people have come here. Although Yuan Shao is fierce, he is not good at employing people and has a headstrong personality. When Tian Feng and Xu You advised him not to fight Cao Cao, he not only refused to listen, but also put Tian Feng in prison and kicked Xu You out. After the defeat, he not only refused to repent, but also beheaded Tian Feng, the counselor, so that the following officials were afraid of themselves and never dared to speak again. When Guan Yu beheaded Yan Liang, Yuan Shao didn't listen to other people's advice. There are many famous people in history, and we can learn a lot from them.
We should be like Cao Cao, ambitious, employing people without doubt, and broad-minded, instead of being indecisive and headstrong like Yuan Shao, and eventually dying. In modern times, our Premier Zhou is also a good example. He has made an ambition since he was a child: to study for the rise of China. In order to realize this dream, he struggled, dedicated and sacrificed all his life to become a good prime minister who will always live in the hearts of the people. In a word, a person's life can't be wasted, but he should strive for his own people, just like Paul Cochakin's famous saying: life is the most precious thing for people, and life belongs to everyone only once. That's how people should spend their lives. Recalling the past will not make him regret wasting time, nor will he be ashamed of doing nothing. Only by setting up lofty ideals, working hard for them and giving everything, will our years not be wasted.
Reflections on the Battle of Guandu 2 The Battle of Guandu in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty was a famous example of defeating the strong with the weak in the ancient war history of China. In February 200, Yuan Shao assembled 100,000 elite soldiers and sent Jushou as the army supervisor, starting from Yecheng and invading Liyang. First, he sent general Yan Liang to cross the Yellow River and attack Baima in an attempt to lure Cao Jun away from Guandu, and then he wiped it out in one fell swoop. At this time, Cao Cao had led the troops to Guandu, and heard that the white horse was besieged and rescued. Cao Cao first sent people to the Yellow River and pretended to cross the river. Yuan Shao heard the news and quickly sent troops to stop it. Cao Cao took the opportunity to raid the white horse with light cavalry. When Cao Cao arrived ten miles away from the White Horse, Yan Liang found himself rushing into battle and was beheaded by Guan Yu, a pioneer in Cao Jun. Guan Yu temporarily surrendered Cao and was eager to make meritorious deeds. Yuan Junqun was leaderless and suddenly ran around alone.
Yuan Shao was very angry when he heard the news. General Wen Chou led six thousand hussars, and the whole army chased Jun. Jun threw heavy weapons on the ground, making Wen Chou think that Jun surrendered to Wen Chou, and Jun surrendered, so he led the soldiers to get weapons. When Cao Jun saw that Yuan was in a mess, he ordered the army to rush out. Yuan suddenly panicked and had no time to resist. He was killed to pieces, and Wen Chou was also killed by Guan Yu. Cao Jun swept the board and established Yuan. The two armies of Cao confronted each other.
Why did Yuan Shao lose in this battle of strength and weakness? I think there are three points: the first point is that Yuan Shao did not take the advice of his subordinates, which is Yuan Shao's greatest failure, mainly reflected in two points: the first point is that Yuan Shao did not listen to Tian Feng and the great hand before the war and insisted on participating in the war. The second place was when Cao Cao led an army to attack the Wu Dynasty. Yuan Shao didn't listen to Zhang He and Gao Lan and didn't save the Wu Dynasty. Instead, he attacked Cao Cao's camp, which led to the rebellion of Zhang He and Gao Lan and made Yuan Shao's war worse. The second point is that Yuan Shao's poor command led to the premature beheading of Yan Liang and Wen Chou by Guan Yu, so that there was no available general in the end; The third point is that Yuan Shao can't fully trust his men, which led to Xu You's rebellion and instigated Cao Cao to send troops to burn his nest. Of course, Cao Cao won for two reasons. The first point is that he can stabilize the morale of the army and stay calm in times of crisis. The second point is that Cao Liyong's credulity to Yuan Shao has been successful.
"The Battle of Guandu" made me understand: Be prepared for danger in times of peace and be good at taking advantage of others' shortcomings in order to succeed.
The battle of Guandu is a famous battle in history. Yuan Shaoju defeated Cao Cao with 700,000 troops, but Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shaoju with 70,000 troops.
The victory or defeat of Cao Cao in Guandu War is worth discussing. Before the war, in order to give courage to Cao Cao, the counselor put forward the theory of "ten wins and ten losses", and Cao Cao was only satisfied. Generally speaking, Cao Sheng has the following points.
1. Cao Cao is good at employing people. He can accept Xu You's advice, attack the Wu Dynasty at night and cut off Yuan Shao's food and grass. Yuan Shao was seriously negligent in employing people. He listened to Guo Tu and was ambushed. He also listened to the frame-up of Shen Pei and Ji Feng, imprisoned Tian Feng, imprisoned Jushou in the army, and let his generals and counselors intrigue against each other, driving away his name Zhang Hegaolan.
2. Cao Cao knew that soldiers were expensive and fast, so he chose the best soldiers to fight. There was not enough hay, but Yuan Shaobing was not as good as Cao Cao, but insisted on being better than Cao Cao, and always listened to Tian Feng, which led to failure. This also warns us not to think that we can do things foolproof, anything is possible, and don't be too proud, otherwise we will eventually reap the consequences.
When Yuan Shao saw Liu Bei recruiting, he wanted to crusade against Liu Bei. Yuan Shao's counselor said that Liu Bei was not the real enemy, but Cao Cao was. You should unite with Sun Ce to attack Cao Cao. Upon hearing this, Yuan Shao sent an envoy Kyle to Jiangdong.
Kyle came back and said that Sun Ce was dead, and Sun Quan took refuge in Cao Cao. Yuan Shao was furious and attacked Xuchang with 700,000 troops. Seeing that Xia Houdun was in an emergency, Cao Cao sent 70,000 troops to meet them. As a result, he was defeated. The two armies fought fiercely in Guandu for two months. Yuan Shao's men offered suggestions, but Yuan Shao didn't listen. Cao Cao listened to his ministers and burned Yuan Shao's provisions at night. Yuan Jun Jun lost his heart and failed to escape. Cao Jun won a great victory. This is the famous battle of Guandu in history.
Yuan Shao failed because he underestimated the strength of his opponent, thought that many soldiers could win, did not listen to the advice of his advisers, and finally failed.
The battle of Guandu told me that in the future, I should not despise my opponents in my study and life, but also be good at listening to other people's suggestions.
The Battle of Guandu 4 During the Three Kingdoms period, there was an earth-shattering war called the Battle of Guandu. This battle took place in 200 AD, which greatly weakened Yuan Shao's strength and laid the foundation for Cao Cao to unify the north in the future. It is really one of the "three major battles" of the Three Kingdoms. About this battle, many people have analyzed the reasons for its victory and defeat through the ages, so today, I will summarize its outline.
I think the biggest theme of the battle of Guandu is the word "regret".
The first regret is that Yuan Shao adopted the wrong tactics.
This war happened when Cao Cao basically pacified the Central Plains. At that time, Yuan Shao occupied two states in Ji You, intent on winning Jiuding, but was stopped by Cao Cao. The friendship when he was young was naturally unbreakable. So, in the autumn of 200 AD, Yuan Shao led 700,000 young people to attack Guandu, which was the junction of him and Cao Cao's army. 700,000, what a shocking number! If you compare the 70,000 troops led by Cao Cao who later stopped Yuan Shao, you will find how different their strength is. But in the end Cao Cao won. I think the main reason for this result is that Yuan Shao adopted the wrong tactics. In fact, at that time, Tian Feng and Ju Shoudu, Yuan Shao's counsellors, had admonished Yuan Shao successively, asking him to take advantage of the poor supply of food and grass on both sides and wait for an opportunity to attack. Regrettably, Yuan Shao did not accept it. He thought Cao Cao was vulnerable, so he underestimated the enemy and went forward, regardless of food and grass. It is precisely because of this that Cao Caocai is not afraid of the crisis caused by the excessive price difference between grain and grass.
But Yuan Shao's strength was so strong that he won even if he adopted the wrong tactics. So Xu You appeared.
The second regret is that Yuan Shao didn't take Xu You's advice.
Xu You is a friend of Cao Cao, but he defected to Yuan Shao. In the white-hot stage of the battle of Guandu, he presented Yuan Shao with a plan to completely destroy Cao Cao-sneak attack on Xuchang, Cao Cao's stronghold. After careful study by later historians, this plan was found to be feasible. And we also know that this plan will undoubtedly break Cao Cao's back road, leaving Cao Cao with no way to heaven and no way to enter the ground. At this moment, the most regrettable thing happened in the history of the Three Kingdoms-Yuan Shao refused. So, as The Romance of the Three Kingdoms said, "At the beginning, Gai Hua was heroic and Guandu was at loggerheads. If you use it, will the mountains and rivers win the Cao family? " Xu You defected to Cao Cao. After the plot, I believe everyone knows that Xu You told Cao Cao that Wu Chao was the secret of Lombardi's grain and hay hoarding.
However, even if Cao Cao burned the nest. Victory is still uncertain. Then, the third regret came. Guo Tu forced Zhang He and Gao Lan to surrender for the benefit.
After Cao Cao cut off Yuan Shao's food and grass, Yuan Shao was still powerful, including two generals, Zhang He and Gao Lan. Lombardi finally made a sober judgment, let Zhang Gaoer attack Cao Jun in Wu Chao. However, at this moment, Guo Tu, who was in charge of the fall of Wu Chao, alienated Yuan Shao and Zhang Gao, so that Zhang He and Gao Lan had to surrender to Cao Cao in order not to be discovered by the two commanders. It was this surrender that not only caused great losses to Yuan Shao's strength, but also caused Yuan Junjun's panic, which led to Yuan Shao's final rout and tragic death in Cangting.
"Many still famous, youthful. There are three thousand heroes in the air and a million heroes in the air. Not sheep and tiger skins, not chicken feathers. Pity a sad place, and it is difficult to delay two brothers at home. " As a lean man, Yuan Shao did not have Cao Cao's broad mind and accurate judgment, and finally lost to Guandu and died with regret. Alas!
After reading the battle of Guandu, what impressed me the most was the story of the battle of Guandu. After reading this story, my heart can't be calm for a long time, as if being involved in this war with twice the result with half the effort.
Xu You, Yuan Shao's counselor, captured a man who sent a letter to Xu Du to urge food and grass in Guandu. This is obviously a good opportunity to defeat Cao Jun. Xu You asked Yuan Shao to take advantage of Cao Cao's emptiness to seize all this. But Yuan Shao refused, thinking that Xu You had cheated him, because Yuan Shao listened to the gossip of other counselors and thought that Xu You was an old classmate of Cao Cao and was setting him up. He also wanted to punish Xu You, so Xu You had to rush to Cao Cao overnight. After reading this sentence, I sighed: "Yuan Shao, a general who doesn't know talents and has no plan, missed such a good opportunity!"
Unlike Yuan Shao, Cao Cao was sleeping in bed when he learned that his old friend Xu Yuan had surrendered. He was so happy that he ran out to meet him without shoes. Xu You's surprise attack on the Wu Dynasty became the key event for Cao Cao to win. This fully shows that Cao Cao is knowledgeable. No wonder so many talents went to Cao Cao at that time.
Finally, because Yuan Shao's defenders neglected the enemy, the grain depot was burned and Yuan Shao's army was defeated. Cao Cao became the winner of this war and annexed the area occupied by Yuan Shao.
Those civil and military officials are like weapons and power systems on chariots, and they are indispensable! Yuan Shao didn't understand strategy and talents, and finally all the officials left one by one to get such a field. Yuan Shao really deserved it!
I think the battle of Guandu is a very famous battle. It tells the story that Yuan Shao led 700,000 troops to crusade against cao thief and Cao Cao fought in Guandu. It is famous because Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao's hundreds of thousands of troops with only tens of thousands of troops. That's because Cao Cao is extremely clever. For example, before the war, Cao Cao learned that Yuan Shao's back was facing things, and he could use the sunshine, so he invited Yuan Shao to have a cup of tea to delay the time. When the sunlight was conducive to freezing, Cao Cao suddenly burst out laughing like a different person. As soon as he returned to the camp, he asked the shooter to shoot an arrow. Because the sun was too bright, Sergeant Fiona Fang had no time to prepare for being shot.
After Yuan Shao's defeat, Xu You gave Yuan Shao advice. Yuan Shao not only refused to listen, but also felt that Xu You was hurting him and wanted to kill Xu You. Xu You couldn't stand it any longer, so he took refuge in Cao Cao. When Cao Cao heard that Xu You was coming, he didn't wear shoes to meet him. With the help of Xu You, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Jun.
After listening to this story, I hated Yuan Shao's suspicion and ignorance, and praised Cao Cao's wit.
Through this campaign, I understand that even if there is no big difficulty in life, you can turn defeat into victory in adversity as long as you are willing to use your head and think hard!
After reading the Battle of Guandu, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, especially the Battle of Guandu, I was deeply touched. The famous battle of Guandu in history has been watched for a long time.
Yuan Shaoling had 700,000 troops, but Yuan Shaoling was too suspicious to listen to advice. He successively sentenced Tian Feng and the giant to death. If Yuan Shaoling took his advice, maybe history will be rewritten, and Cao Cao of the Three Kingdoms will replace Yuan Shaoling. The battle of Guandu caused Yuan Shaoling to collapse, and 700,000 troops were wiped out by Cao Cao70,000 troops. Yuan Shaoling's failure lies in his suspicion and heavy employment. However, when Cao Cao encountered difficulties, he treated his advisers, especially Xu Youlai, with an open mind, which played a key role in the success or failure of the battle of Guandu. Advise Yuan Shao, but Shao won't listen. Later, it was decreed that Shao's grain and grass in Wu Chao should be burned, which led to chaos. Cao Cao captured Shao Ying in one fell swoop, and Shao was defeated, killing Tian Feng all the time.
Take history as a mirror and today as a mirror. Looking back at history today, we can easily find that whenever history reaches a critical point, it is often the decision makers who decide the outcome. If the decision-makers have great wisdom, the soldiers will be ten; Policymakers are broad-minded, and counselors will be loyal and wise; Decision makers have high long-term goals, but they will make fewer mistakes under deep planning, and vice versa.
After watching the battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao knew that Cao Cao was wooing Sun Quan against himself, so he led 700,000 soldiers and horses to crusade against Cao Cao, and Cao Cao only led 70,000 troops to meet the enemy.
Cao Cao serenade is short of food and wants to make a quick decision. As a result, the first battle was defeated and Cao Cao led the troops to Guandu. Cao Cao sent someone to Xuchang to urge food, but Xu You caught him. Knowing that there was no food and grass in Cao Jun, Xu You gave Yuan Shao a chance to attack Cao Cao and win. As a result, Yuan Shao didn't trust Xueyou when he knew that he had feelings with Cao Cao. When Xu You found that Yuan Shao didn't believe him, he defected to Cao Cao.
Xu You proposed to Cao Cao to burn Yuan Shao's grain and grass. Yuan Jun went into chaos without fighting and fled without fighting spirit. Yuan Shao vowed to fight a decisive battle with Cao Cao, who took the strategy of flying in ambush on all sides, divided the troops into ten ways, killed Yuan Shao and fled in defeat.
This is the famous "Battle of Guandu" in history. How could Yuan Shao's 700,000 troops be defeated by Cao Cao's 70,000 troops? Xu You caught Cao Cao's messenger, which was originally a good opportunity to attack Cao Cao, but Yuan Shao didn't believe Xu You and lost a good opportunity.
Cao Cao believed Xu You's strategy and turned defeat into victory.
Trust others when it's time to trust others, but even if Yuan Shao regrets it, it's too late, because things have passed. When I do things in the future, I should not only think about what I should do in front, but also think about the consequences of completing one thing.
Today, I read the story of the battle of Guandu and deeply felt sorry for Yuan Shao's defeat. A hundred thousand troops and a lot of grain and grass were lost to Cao Cao, whose strength was not as good as his own at that time. After careful reading, I understand a truth: one should not be too proud.
This story is mainly about one of the "three major battles" in the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it is also one of the famous battles in the history of China. In the fifth year of Jian 'an (AD 200), Cao and Yuan were at loggerheads in Guandu (now northeast of Zhongmou, Henan) and launched a strategic decisive battle. Cao Cao raided Yuan Jun's granary in Wu Chao (now Fengqiu West, Henan Province), and then defeated Yuan Jun's main force. This battle laid the foundation for Cao Cao's unification of northern China.
After reading this story, I don't understand: Why is Yuan Jun so powerful, with abundant manpower, financial resources and food, and why is it defeated by Cao Cao's small soldiers? It turned out that everything was because Yuan Shao was too proud to listen to the minister's persuasion and attacked alone, which led to Cao Cao's victory. The reason for his failure is only two words-pride. If he is not so proud, the world may not belong to him, and history may change greatly. Everything is because of pride. Looking back, I was proud. I couldn't believe my eyes when the final exam results of the second volume of Grade Three were announced. Oh, my God, the score is 99.5, which is the highest score I got! So I showed off with my classmates everywhere. As a result, my Chinese score in the final exam next semester is only 90%. At this time, Xiao Liu, whom I laughed at last semester, came over and asked, "What did you get in the exam?" I got 95 points! " I can't wait to find a hole to drill down. If I knew, I wouldn't be so proud.
As the saying goes, if a wise man is worried, he will lose something, and if a fool is worried, he will gain something. No one is perfect, so learn from each other and become a better self tomorrow!
The Battle of Guandu (10) has a long history in China. It was a turning point for Cao Cao to unify the north during the Three Kingdoms period, and it was also one of the famous battles of winning more with less. Has been receiving much attention. Personally, I think Yuan Shao was defeated because he was headstrong. Cao Cao can win because he can learn from others.
Before the battle of Guandu, Liu Bei joined forces with Liu Pi and other yellow turban insurrectionary figureheads to attack Xuchang behind Cao Cao. At this moment, Tian Feng, Yuan Shao's counselor, suggested that Yuan Shao send troops to attack Xu Du. Yuan Shao refused to take him in on the grounds that he was ill when he was a child. In the battle of Guandu, Cao Yuan and Cao Cao were at loggerheads. In Enemy at the Gates, Cao Cao, Xu You once again proposed to attack Xu Du and disturb Cao Cao's rear, which could not be balanced. Yuan Shao refused to pick him up again. Cao Cao did not. Before the Battle of Guandu, when Liu Bei reorganized Liu Pi, Guo Jia thought that Yuan Shao would not send troops, so there was no need to worry about Xu Du. Cao Cao thought it was feasible and tried his best to attack Liu Bei. As a result, Yuan Shao did not take the opportunity to send troops. In the battle of Guandu, Cao Caobing had no surplus grain and had the intention of withdrawing troops. He wrote a letter to Xu Mi, and he wrote back that at present, the enemy is strong and we are weak, and the withdrawal of troops is controlled by others, so it is impossible to withdraw troops, and only Indiana Jones can win. Cao Cao also listened to his words and persisted. Xu You put forward a plan to burn the bird's nest, and Cao Cao also adopted it, thus winning a decisive victory.
At the beginning of the establishment of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang gave a big banquet to his ministers. He said at the banquet that he was able to achieve the country because he thought Xiao, Han and Zhang could be used, while Xiang Yu could not use them because he had a counselor, Fan Zeng. Ma Su lost the street pavilion because he was headstrong, that is, he didn't need the garrison map prepared by Zhuge Liang in advance and didn't listen to Wang Ping's advice.
Wayward people fail because they are self-righteous and lack a correct understanding of their abilities and knowledge. The result of being too confident in yourself and skeptical about other people's opinions. In fact, no matter how smart a person is, no matter how hard he studies and how much experience he accumulates, it is impossible for him to know everything.
It is true that not everyone is a big shot and can change the situation of the times and the historical pattern, but they can still be self-righteous. Sadly, however, such people often exist around us. They are self-righteous, pointing at many behaviors of others, so as to grandstanding and raise their own worth. It is true that some of the things he pointed out are familiar and proficient. But more depends on your own experience, some subjective feelings, and even your own temporary emotions. Isn't this boring and ridiculous?
After reading the Battle of Guandu, the article 1 1 The Battle of Guandu profoundly depicts the intrigue and power struggle between people.
Cao Cao, a wise wit, was willing to listen to other people's opinions, analyze them carefully, fight bravely, and be open-minded, but killed his loyal minister Jushou by mistake. Yuan Shao, although there are valiant soldiers, it is still difficult to win. He is suspicious and lacks ideas. In the battle of Guandu, because he didn't listen to the advice of Xu You, he suspected that there was collusion in the dark, and the whole army was wiped out. Xu You went down to Cao Cao in a fit of pique, and Yuan Shao really lost his wife and soldiers. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Cao Cao must think twice before you act, lest he regret it. Yuan Shao is too suspected, so we should calmly analyze whether it is right or wrong.
I think this essay tells people that in life and work, we must be cautious in dealing with people, not careless or rash. If you study, you need to check carefully even after you finish writing, and you can't miss a word. If mistakes are found, there is no way out. Especially during the exam, you must never relax. After you have finished, you should check it over and over again. Even a word can make a huge mistake. But don't be too nervous, it's not good. Maintain a normal mind, be rigorous and meticulous, be fair to others and be kind to others.
The Battle of Guandu 12 Guandu is a famous war example in history. Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao700,000 troops with 70,000 people. Why is Yuan Shao's 700,000 troops no match for Cao Cao's 70,000 troops?
The factors that determine the outcome of the war are: whether there is enough food and grass, whether morale is high, how many troops there are, and the advantages and disadvantages of the geographical environment. Of course, the most important thing is the ability of the coach.
Xu You is a good counselor of Yuan Shao. One day, Cao Jun was running out of hay. Cao Cao wrote a letter and sent someone to Xuchang to urge him to supervise the hay. Unexpectedly, this letter fell into Xu You's hand, and he was very happy. He hurriedly took the letter to see Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao disagreed, saying that Cao Cao was scheming, worried that the letter was false, and did not listen to Xu You's advice. It is also said that Xu You and Cao Cao are classmates, and this time they will cooperate with Cao Cao to calculate him. Xu You left Yuan Shao in a fit of pique to find Cao Cao.
When Xu You came to Cao Ying, Cao Cao was taking a nap. Suddenly, I heard a loud cry outside the account, but I knew to vote. Cao Cao was so happy that he got up and greeted him with the bill. I left in such a hurry that I didn't even have time to put on my shoes when someone greeted me. This made Xu You very moved. He helped Cao Cao plan and finally defeated Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao is light and headstrong; Cao Cao respected sages and valued scholars, and he was thirsty for sages. Although Yuan Shao has plenty of soldiers and plenty of advisers, he refuses to listen to other people's opinions and does things improperly, resulting in mistakes everywhere. Although Cao Cao is short of food in Serenade, he can distinguish right from wrong, accept the correct opinions of others, and his subordinates are United and stable, so he can often save the day and take the initiative in everything. Therefore, the battle of Guandu was decided before the decisive battle.
This war case of winning more with less is not unique in history. For example, in Battle of Red Cliffs, Sun Liu only had 100,000 men, but he defeated Cao Jun with 830,000 men. Another example is that Mao Zedong was able to calmly cope with the five encirclement and suppression campaigns launched by Chiang Kai-shek and won one victory after another. These are typical examples in the history of war.
Then, I understood a truth: the key to a war is not the number of troops, but the ability of the commander-in-chief, including his policies and strategies.
