    Ordinary people don't have the courage to fight like this, because it's too dangerous. Han Shin's battle with fewer victories and more dangerous and unusual battles is most famously the Battle of the Back. The Battle of the Last Water, also known as the Battle of Jingcheng, was recorded in detail in the Book of Han.

    After Liu Bang's Han army was defeated in Pengcheng, the kings of Qi, Zhao, and Wei all turned against each other and took refuge in Xiang Yu. Han Xin led 30,000 elite soldiers, cleaned up the King of Wei, and then led tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, wanting to attack the King of Zhao in Jingcheng. When King Zhao and Cheng Anjun heard that Han Xin was coming to attack them, they gathered an army of 200,000 and waited for Han Xin at Jingcheng.

    Cheng Anjun had a genius under him, named Li Zuoche, who advised Cheng Anjun to take advantage of his geographical advantage and send troops to cut off Han Xin's grain and grass first, so that he could easily defeat Han Xin. However, Cheng Anjun was a pedantic, saying that "volunteers don't need to deceive and trick", and he also thought that Han Xin was lying about the number of troops and was not his opponent at all, so he vetoed his proposal. But you see, Cheng Anjun is unwilling to use deceit and tricks, and Han Xin doesn't mind using it, isn't there a sentence in the military book that soldiers are not tired of cheating!

    Han Xinxin's strategy led Zhao Jun to the water's edge and out of the water array, so that there would be no way to retreat, and he could only fight to the death, not defeat. Then Han Xin sent troops to attack the camp of the Zhao army, pulled out the banner of the king of Zhao, and erected the banner of the king of Han. At this time, Han Xin took advantage of the victory to pursue, killed Cheng Anjun, and captured King Zhao and Li Zuoche.

    Regarding this battle of winning more with less, Han Xin himself said"Fall into the place of death and then live, cast into the place of death and survive". It can be seen that this war is still extremely dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will be in a desperate situation, who dares to use it!

    Most of these remarks are from the Book of Han, not personal opinions, I wonder if you have different opinions?

    Because the tactics used by Han Xin are relatively extreme, no one dares to try them, for fear that something will go wrong.

    Mainly because he didn't have this ambition at all, and at that time, he also had special respect for Liu Bang, special worship, and believed in their king, so he didn't set himself up as a king.

    Because he didn't have much support at that time, and he was afraid of affecting his reputation, he didn't set himself up as king.

    Because Han Xin's character is very good, it is impossible to abandon Liu Bang at the most difficult moment, and the relationship between the two is very good, so he did not set himself up as king.

    <> "Han Xin's 30,000 troops defeated the Zhao army.

    In 204 BC, with Liu Bang's approval, Han Xin defeated the 200,000 Zhao elite led by Chen Yu at Jingcheng Pass with a small force, creating a famous example of battle in Chinese history. Since then, the term "last stop" has also become a celebrity. This is the battle of the Han Dynasty to destroy Zhao in the eyes of everyone.

    I feel that Zhao is nothing more than that, and Han Xin is also a god when he fights. Since then, Yan Guo has become more ambitious. Sima Qian commented in the "Historical Records":

    Zhang Er and Chen Yu are known as the sages of the world, they are all heroes of the world, and the countries they live in have lovers.

    In addition, it is also recorded in this biography that Liu Bangshen once "went out of the fortress and met the marquis Bingxiang of Huaiyin", that is, Zhou Xiang, as Liu Bang's guard, went to Guo Xiang to meet Han Xin. According to the "Biography of Zhang Er and Chen Yu", in March of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Er and Han Xin defeated the Zhao army in Jingcheng, and Chen Yu was beheaded in Qiushui, and then sent troops to kill Wang Zhao and rested in Guo Xiang. To sum up, it depends on that in the Battle of Jingcheng, in addition to the armies of Han Xin and Zhang Er, Liu Bang also participated in this war.

    He was ordered to purge the remnants of the Wei and Dai regions, and Wucheng was just near the sphere of influence. Then, according to the analysis of the "Gaozu Heroes Table", Liu Bang's subordinates Zhou Bo, Zhao Ou, Lu Juan and others all fought in Julu, Changshan, and Yan Dynasty in the north of Zhao State. This group of people is Liu Bang's most loyal and trusted general, and so many people are active in Zhao Yan's land, which shows that Liu Bang is also near Guo Xiang.

    As for the surrender of Yan, Liu Bang was obviously the target of everyone.

    First they defeated Dai and said that they wanted to draw Zhao's attention to the north of Zhao, then Han Xinhe and Zaijing attracted their main force, while Liu Bang led the main force of the Han army to attack Handan. With the loss of Handan, Guo Xiang was in danger, and Chen Yu was in a passive position. Just as Han Xin grasped Chen Yu's psychology and attracted him to send troops with a weak victory, Chen Chi was attacked and killed.

    After Chen Yu settled, Han Xin and Liu Bang surrounded Guo Xiang from north to south, and Zhao Wangxie was killed, marking the demise of Zhao. As for Yan, they surrendered under military pressure.

    As for Han Xin's soldiers, they have indeed been mobilized, but as for Han's **, there is no clear explanation yet. Although he was dominated by the situation of the entire battle situation, passively attacked, and failed, Han Xin only had 30,000 weak troops to defeat Zhao on unfavorable terrain, which also created a god-annihilating reputation in Chinese history.

    Because Han Xin didn't want to kill someone because of this trivial matter, after all, he still had very lofty ideals in his heart. If he kills on the spur of the moment, he will lose his life because of it.

    Anyone who has heard the term "crotch humiliation" will have a question in their hearts, that is, why Han Shin endured such an insult. In fact, this matter is very easy to understand, if we can have a good understanding of Han Shin's situation at that time, then we will not be surprised by Han Shin's behavior. Han Shin was born relatively noble and was a nobleman in Korea.

    However, because the Qing Dynasty destroyed Korea when it unified the world, the life of Han Xin's family plummeted. When he arrived at Han Xin, he was unwilling to work and not do business, so he was idle all day long, and he had no food to eat, so he could only go to a friend's house to eat.

    It is precisely because Han Xin's living conditions are different from others that the people in his fellow villagers look down on him very much, thinking that he is an idle person who does not learn and has no skills. Once Han Xin was walking on the street and was suddenly stopped by a butcher, who looked down on Han Xin as a lazy man, so he wanted to humiliate him. The butcher told Han Xin that he would either slash himself with a knife or get under his crotch.

    Seeing this, the people on the street gathered around to watch the excitement, and Han Xin did not hurt anyone after seeing the butcher for a long time, but honestly drilled through the other party's crotch. Han Xin's actions made others look down on him completely, and everyone disdained him even more from then on.

    And the reason why Han Xin did this was mainly because he knew that he was a military genius and a person who would do great things in the future, and if he killed someone for a momentary battle of will, then he would also be beheaded by the government. After this incident passed, Han Xin did not hold a grudge, but encouraged himself to work harder to find an opportunity to get ahead, and later Han Xin became the king of Chu and made the butcher a county lieutenant.

    When it comes to Han Shin, many people will talk about this historical figure, not least because of the good talk about his control of the military. It is also said that his early miserable life and the humiliating experience of the butcher have become a teaching material to motivate himself, so why did such a generation of military gods not resist when the butcher humiliated him?

    In fact, the butcher humiliated him at that time, but Han Xin did not resist. I think the lack of physical combat effectiveness is the main reason, at that time, Han Xin was hungry for a full meal, had no income at all, and was unwilling to farm, and his physical fitness was not strong. On the other hand, because the butcher is engaged in manual labor all year round and has sufficient nutrition, the butcher humiliated him at that time, and Han Xin wanted to resist, but his physical condition did not allow it.

    And the second point, the law at that time was very strict, prohibiting the people from fighting in public, if Han Xin really resisted at that time, the best result of fighting with the butcher was only to lose both, but then he would be punished more severely, after all, Han Xin did not have any power at that time, and there was no money, so in the struggle of the butcher, it must be that Han Xin would be more miserable.

    And the third point of Han Xin's non-resistance, which is the point that is most praised by the people of Dangxia, is patience. endured the calm for a while, laying the best foreshadowing for his magnificent life in the end, when Han Xin successfully endured the humiliation of the crotch, he had the foundation to conquer the world in the future, if Han Xin resisted directly, whether the result could succeed or not was left aside for the time being, there must be no Han Xin military god in the future.

    Another point is that Han Xin didn't care about the butcher humiliating him like this, because throughout the process of the butcher's humiliation of him, Han Xin himself did not express any resistance. Of course, it may also have really resisted, but it is not mentioned in the history books. However, everyone who achieves great things is often informal, and only after enduring this senseless humiliation can Han Xin achieve final success, which is the key.

    Maybe he thinks the butcher is too cute, he doesn't want to fight back, he thinks he can let the butcher have a good time.

    It's because he really wasn't taken seriously by Liu Bei at that time, he was just an ordinary ordinary person, and he didn't want to cause trouble.

    The butcher should be regarded as a bully in the local area, and Han Xin was just a thug who had nothing to do all day long before his career, and under the conditions of law and order at that time, in addition to being thankless, resistance could even be hacked to death on the spot.

    And Han Xin's sneak attack also caught Zhao Jun off guard, and in the end, the army was even more confused. The reason why Han Xin's strategy can be successful is that Han Xin's own ability is very strong, Han Xin is good at using tricks, and Han Xin has an in-depth understanding of Zhao Jun before he fought against Zhao Ren.

    In fact, the strategy used by Han Xin back then also had a back-to-back battle. In a battle against the water, not all generals dare to use it, because this tactic is very problematic. If your own army really can't defeat the other party, then there must be nowhere to escape, so few people will use it throughout the ages.

    Han Xin used the strategy of fighting against the water, and this strategy tested people's psychological quality very much, so although Han Xin won the war, no one in later generations dared to learn his strategy.

    When Han Xin confronted the Zhao state, he used the strategy of fighting a backwater, which greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers, and Han Xin led a small number of soldiers to occupy the camp of the Zhao army, and finally won the victory.
