Why didn t Ma Jian listen to Kong Ming s words and set up camp in the mountains?

Because Ma Tan is arrogant, self-serving, and not good at listening to the opinions of others, he finally paid the price for his arrogance.

That's because Ma Jian thought that the general's order would not be subject to the foreign monarch's order, and he bluntly copied the statement in the military book, believing that the terrain was advantageous due to high terrain, but did not take into account the logistics and replenishment of the army.

Because he wants to prove his strength and show that he will fight against the odds, he has such a commotion.

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" Kong Ming saw through Liu Bei after Zhang Fei's death.

After receiving the news of Guan Yu's death, Liu Bei's first reaction was to lead his troops back to Jingzhou to avenge Guan Yu. Zhang Fei is the same, he wants to follow Liu Bei to go out on the expedition to avenge his second brother. But Zhang Fei, who borrowed wine to drown his sorrows, was killed by the soldiers and cut off his head because he whipped the soldiers to vent his hatred.

And when Liu Bei learned the news of Zhang Fei's killing, he just whispered 4 words: I know. Then he continued to lead the army forward.

After Liu Bei suffered a big defeat in Yiling, hundreds of thousands of elites were burned clean by Lu Xun. Liu Bei himself was almost killed in the fire, but fortunately, the guards desperately protected him and fled back to White Emperor City.

After Zhuge Liang learned the details of the matter, he finally saw Liu Bei's true face. It turned out that Liu Bei had been pretending all along, his brotherly concept was not so important, and his expedition this time was just to take back Jingzhou, not revenge.

Zhuge Liang's real disappointment:

Liu Bei's series of behaviors, although they did not make Zhuge Liang completely cold, but in the end, Zhuge Liang was disappointed in him. This disappointment really turned into a chill after Zhang Fei's death.

Zhang Fei's death starts with Guan Yu's death. Guan Yu guarded Jingzhou, but was attacked by Eastern Wu, and finally lost his life, and Shu lost the treasure land of Jingzhou. When Liu Bei heard the news, he was very angry, and even personally led an army to conquer Sun Quan.

In the eyes of everyone, Liu Bei's personal revenge for Dongwu was to avenge Guan Yu and attach importance to the brotherhood between him and Guan Yu.

But if you think about it carefully, if Guan Yu didn't lose Jingzhou. Jingzhou was the base that Liu Bei took after a long period of hard work, but it was captured by Eastern Wu when Guan Yu was stationed, and Liu Bei must be unwilling. In addition, the relationship between Shu and Wu was rigid at that time, and a legitimate reason was needed to tear up the alliance and declare war.

And Guan Yu's death is just an opportunity.

Zhuge Liang asked him to guard the crossing, and he ran up the mountain to fight hard.

If you fight in the north, there is a water source in the mountains, and the mountains are condescending, you can occupy the geographical advantage when the enemy and our forces do not have an advantage, which will help to guard the street pavilion, but the horse is not judged according to the local land type to rent Zhaoxing, resulting in the loss of the street pavilion.

There is no reason for this, because this will be surrounded by enemy troops and cut off the water directly, but it is easy to fail.

There is a certain reason, which can have the effect of fighting against the water; But I think he overlooked an important factor, which was that there was no water source in the mountains.

Because Ma Jian thinks that his claim is correct. He believed that camping on the mountain could be attacked, retreated, and defended, and that it was a very favorable terrain.

Because he wants to prove his ability and does not want to follow the tail of others; His approach should have been to put death on the ground and come back to life, but he didn't take the position into account.

Because Ma Tan is self-righteous, he always wants to prove his ability to disobey military orders. There is no justification for what he did.

It makes sense, ascend and descend, according to the high ground is obviously advantageous. However, the art of war is changeable, and tactics can only be formulated in combination with the actual battle situation, and Ma Tan did not expect that in this way, if Cao's army blocked their way down the mountain at the foot of the mountain and surrounded them, the grain would definitely be defeated.

It makes sense that the camp is set up at a high place to avoid the enemy's fire attack and flooding, and if the sentinels are excluded and the enemy can be detected in time, then archery can be carried out at a high place, and great strategic results can be obtained at a very small cost.

It makes sense, it has the same meaning as Han Xin's last battle, except that he ignores the problem of water sources.

Of course, there is some truth to it, after all, it is condescending and easy to defend, but it ignores the problem of water sources, which leads to failure.

There is a certain amount of truth to this, because only in this way can they better understand the opponent's lineup.

Of course, there is some truth to it. I think it's a wise choice for Ma Tan to camp in the mountains.
