After Ma Tan lost the street pavilion, why didn t Zhuge Liang take the street pavilion back?

In the first Northern Expedition, after Ma Tan lost the street pavilion, why didn't Zhuge Liang take the street pavilion back?

Because the street pavilion is a strategic place, easy to defend and difficult to attack. After Ma Tan lost the street pavilion, Wei immediately arranged heavy troops to defend it, and it was difficult for Zhuge Liang to take it back.

Zhuge Liang and Ma Jian have to bear half of the responsibility, Zhuge Liang's responsibility lies in the unknown use of people, because of the misuse of Ma Tan as the commander to guard the street pavilion; And Ma Yan's responsibility lies in violating the bright festival and giving up the water to the mountain. As for why he used Ma Tan, because he wanted to train Ma Jian and make Ma Jian a fierce general in his own right.

Mainly because Zhuge Liang trusted Ma Ji too much and thought that he could succeed alone, Zhuge Liang didn't see people clearly this time, so he made a mistake.

Because Zhuge Liang didn't believe these three people, and he felt that his plan was accurate and he would definitely not make a mistake, he didn't do it.

It should be Zhuge Liang's fault, because Zhuge Liang feels that Ma Jian is a rare talent, and he trusts this person very much, so he let this person guard.

I think the loss of the street pavilion should be Ma Yan's mistake, if he could listen to Zhuge Liang's orders to carry out Zhuge Liang's orders, instead of making his own decisions, he would not have lost the street pavilion.

The loss of the street pavilion is actually Zhuge Liang's disadvantage, but Zhuge Liang has already seen Ma Jian unpleasantly, so he will tear and kill Ma Tan, after all, Ma Jian is a very good apprentice of Zhuge Liang, but his temperament is also relatively straight, so Zhuge Liang doesn't particularly like Ma Tan, just an excuse.

Zhuge Liang's fault. He originally knew that Ma Tan was just a man who talked on paper and had no practical experience at all, but he still had to send him to garrison the street pavilion, which led to the loss of this war, so in the final analysis, it was the fault of the leadership.

The direct cause of the loss of the street pavilion was caused by Ma Tan's incompetence, and he needs to be directly responsible, but Zhuge Liang, as the coach, must bear the responsibility for negligence in employing people.

It's Ma Tan's fault. Because he did not follow the command, but marched and fought according to his own will, it was his fault.

Whose fault is it that Ma Tan lost the street pavilion?

01, Zhuge Liang at this time did not have the strength to be tough with Zhang Jaw head-on. As we all know, the strength of Shu Han and Cao Wei is very different, especially after Guan Yu lost Jingzhou, the entire Shu Han was left with the territory of Yizhou, during Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition, the entire Shu Han's strength will not exceed 100,000, and these troops will be dispersed to guard various regions, so when the Northern Expedition was made, Zhuge Liang's total strength would not exceed 50,000. But Cao Wei is different, the overall strength of Cao Wei's group may have exceeded more than 400,000, and the troops led by Zhang Jaw were about 50,000 at that time.

So when the street pavilion has been lost, Zhuge Liang will not choose to risk fighting head-on. <>

02. Due to the loss of the street pavilion, the entire Northern Expedition was defeated. Before Zhuge Liang launched this Northern Expedition, he had already asked Zhao Yun and Deng Zhi to come to Keigu with a small army, this small army was mainly to confuse the other party, because Cao Wei did not know how many people there were in this army, so he had been able to involve Cao Zhen's main force, but with the loss of Jieting, then this suspicious army would be completely exposed, so Zhao Yun and others were also defeated. So at this time, Zhao Yun had no choice but to retreat, and on the way to retreat, in order to prevent Cao Wei's soldiers and horses from continuing to go deeper, Zhao Yun chose to burn the 100-mile plank road.

If Zhuge Liang chooses to lead all the armies to fight for the street pavilion at this time, then for Cao Zhen, there are actually two very good choices, the first option is to let Cao Zhen lead his tens of thousands of troops to attack Shu Han directly, if you are lucky, you may really be able to destroy Shu Han, even if you can't destroy Shu Han, it can also have the effect of encircling Wei and saving Zhao. <>

The second option is to go directly to the rescue of Zhang Jaw, you must know that Zhang Jaw already has 50,000 elite soldiers in his hands, and Cao Zhen also has tens of thousands of elite soldiers in his hands, but at this time, Zhuge Liang can use no more than 50,000 troops at most, and the terrain of the street pavilion itself is more dangerous, Zhuge Liang is still the attacking side, if he is attacked before and after, the consequences will be unimaginable.

After Ma Tan lost the Jieting, the reason why Zhuge Liang did not withdraw the army was because the terrain of the Jieting was dangerous and easy to defend and difficult to attack, and if Zhuge Liang did not withdraw the army, then the Wei army could be attacked and retreated, and Zhuge Liang had no way to take them. <>

1. The terrain is dangerous.

Zhuge Liang had already stated the importance of the street pavilion before sending Ma Tan to guard the street pavilion, for Zhuge Liang's armyJieting was the only way for him to attack Wei and retreat to Shu, and it was also the only pass on this war route, so this location was very important to Zhuge Liang. Before the war began, Zhuge Liang had already asked his generals to volunteer to receive the task, whether to prepare to participate in the war or to defend this strategic location. Equestrian is born calves are not afraid of tigers, so they received this task, but Zhuge Liang also sent him a very capable assistant named Wang Ping, when Ma Jian lost the street pavilion, Wang Ping once objected to his opinion, but it was useless, so it brought Zhuge Liang so much trouble.

From the subsequent development of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, we can also see that after Ma Tan lost the street pavilion, he brought a fatal blow to Zhuge Liang's troops, and also lost part of the living force. <>

2. Lack of supplies.

Zhuge Liang knew that after Ma Tan lost the Jieting, the reason why he chose to withdraw the army was because they were fighting a long distance and needed to go out of Qishan to reach the territory of Wei, so for Zhuge Liang, he was a long-distance march, and the loss of the Jieting meant that his transit station was lost, in this way, there was no way for them to get enough popularity in the war behind them, and for an army, logistics strength is particularly important, because people can't go to war without being fed. Zhuge Liang also did this to ensure that there were enough troops to deal with the next war, because in ancient times, the productivity was relatively backward, the reproductive ability was also very weak, and the limitation of medical level made the cultivation of young adults very rare. <>

To sum up, the reason why Zhuge Liang withdrew his troops was because he was afraid of fatigue.

The soldiers and horses have not moved, the grain and grass go first, the army only has logistics guarantee, with sufficient grain and grass, in order to carry out continuous operations, the loss of the street pavilion, the Shu army's grain road is cut off, and the backup and supply will be cut off, resulting in the rout of the entire Northern Expedition, at this time the withdrawal is the right choice.

Because the street pavilion is camped in the dangdao, it will be a master, ten thousand people are not open, easy to defend and difficult to attack, can not be overcome, if it is delayed for a long time, then Zhuge Liang's army will be in danger of annihilation.

Pay for one's whistle. Even if the street pavilion was recaptured, it didn't improve the chances of victory, so it didn't waste troops.

Street kiosks are very important. It is a military stronghold. Lost the street kiosk. Then the Northern Expedition will be in vain. So Zhuge Liang had to retreat.

The street pavilion was the main route for the Shu army to transport grain. In ancient wars, food and prudent hunger strikes were always the first, and people could not get filial piety, but food must arrive. Therefore, as soon as the street pavilion loses its filial piety and guards, it must all retreat.

The strategic location of Jieting's military stupidity is very important, because it is located on the Longshan Pass, which is of great significance to Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition to capture Longyou and then take Liangshu Yuanzhou. Once the street pavilion collapsed, the Shu army was at risk of being surrounded by the Wei state.

Street Pavilion is the forward base of Shu Han, with Street Pavilion, Zhuge Liang can fight with Wei for a long time, and there is hope for the success of the Northern Expedition, so Street Pavilion is very important.

Because the street pavilion is very important, without the street pavilion, their Northern Expedition is equivalent to failure. Therefore, Zhuge Liang wanted to kill Ma Jian to correct the army's heart.

It's not because it's important, but because the nature of this incident is very bad, and killing him is to make an example of the chickens.

The ancient military order was not a joke, it wasn't Liu Bei and Zhang Fei who pleaded for mercy at the beginning, Guan Erye was also beheaded, Ma Jian volunteered to make a military order, not Zhuge Liang wanted to use him.

The kiosk is very important. The loss of the street pavilion is the same as the loss of the vanguard in the army. So the role of the street kiosk is very large.

As an important city for transporting grain and grass in Shu, it was very dangerous for Jieting to lose its position to transport grain and grass, and the rear was not very stable at that time, and it was very likely to be surrounded by the enemy in turn.

Because at that time, it was a transportation artery, and it was possible to hoard supplies, and it was the only way to go.

Street Pavilion is a strategic location, which can also be a good way to transport supplies, and at the same time can be attacked and retreated. So it's especially important.
