"Baby Bus" Who is the strongest military commander in China's history? Ten ancient military geniuses

Who is the strongest military commander in history? If you ask such a question, I believe there will be many answers. For example, some people will immediately name Napoleon, zhukov, Montgomery, Rommel, guderian and Barton. These people are all famous war commanders. In the sense of war practice, they are all outstanding contemporary military strategists. Others may quote karl clausewitz, liddell hart, John Frederick Fuller, Amberford, Anthony jomini and others. These people are all famous military theorists. Judging from the theory of war, they were all pioneers of military thought at that time. However, the chief strategist should be a comprehensive master of the art of war at the strategic and strategic levels. I am honored that there are not many such military leaders. There are two people in our country. They are all world champions. There was Sun Wuzi in ancient times, but now there is Mao Zedong. Let Bian Xiao take stock of the top ten outstanding talented military commanders in history?

First, Sun Wu in the Spring and Autumn Period

Sun Wu, also known as Changqing, was later called Sun Zi and Sun Wuzi. Born in Le 'an, Qi around 535 BC. The exact date of birth and death cannot be determined. A famous military strategist. He led the Wu army to break through Chu, occupied Yingcheng, the capital of Chu, and destroyed Chu several times. His masterpiece Thirteen Articles on the Art of War was highly praised by later military strategists. Known as the "sacred book of military science", the "Seven Classics of Military Science" ranks first. It has been translated into English, French, German and Japanese, becoming the most famous military science model in the world.

Sun Wu's military theory is not without mistakes, but it goes far beyond the contemporary works on the art of war, and has deeply influenced future generations with its outstanding knowledge, and has been widely praised by military strategists at all times and at home and abroad. For example, Sun Wu advocated "cautious war". It is pointed out at the beginning: "War is a national event, which is related to the life and death of the people and the survival of the country. It must be carefully studied and carefully considered. " . Sun Wu also warned the monarch not to send troops out of anger, and warned the general not to fight out of anger. They must look to the future and make decisions according to the national interests. For example, Sun Wu put forward the famous conclusion that "know yourself and know yourself, and fight every battle". He believes that we must know our own strength and the situation of our opponents like the back of our hand, grasp the dynamic changes of our opponents anytime and anywhere, and take corresponding contingency measures to win the war. For example, Sun Wu also put forward the idea of concentrating superior forces to fight annihilation, arguing that no matter what the overall strength of the enemy and ourselves is, we should create opportunities to gain an advantage in local forces. Ten attacks, one attack, and a few people wiped out the enemy completely. These excellent military thoughts and theories are highly respected by military strategists, and Sun Wu is unanimously regarded as the "father of military strategists" by military strategists at all times and all over the world. During the Warring States Period, many military strategists such as Wu Qi, Sun Bin and Wei Liang praised Sun Wu's military art as second to none. Cao Cao was a famous politician and strategist in the Three Kingdoms period. He praised the Art of War by Sun Tzu. He personally sorted out the predecessors' research on Sun Tzu's Art of War and made a concise explanation, which provided convenience for future generations to learn and use Sun Tzu's Art of War. As the pioneering work of Sun Tzu's Art of War in 2006, it became a theoretical subject of Wushu examination in Ningnian imperial examination, and has been widely circulated in society since then. At the same time, The Art of War has also spread to Vietnam, South Korea, Japan, Israel, and even Britain, Germany, Russia and other countries.

Modern warfare uses many new weapons, which is quite different from the situation in ancient warfare. However, the basic principles and principles of war discussed in the Seven Books of the Wu Jing have not changed because of the changes in war conditions, so they are still widely respected by military strategists. Mao Zedong, who led the China revolution to victory, once spoke highly of it: "The Art of War, knowing ourselves and knowing ourselves, is still a scientific truth." In the Gulf War of 1990, American general Svaltkov used the principle of "attaching importance to the troops but neglecting the generals" and the famous strategic thought of 1990, which promoted the most modern war weapon to win the war. Svaltkov is also known as the "star prodigy". Liddell hart, a famous British military strategist, said in the preface of the English version of Sun Tzu's Art of War: "The thoughts of ancient military strategists in China more than 2,500 years ago are very helpful for studying wars in the nuclear age."

Chinese and foreign military strategists use their military theories to guide the war not only in the military field, but also in all fields of society, especially in enterprise management. Although Sun Wu's military theory and business management are different, they have many similarities, such as market competition and war. The Art of War written by Japanese entrepreneur Takeo pointed out: "It is more reasonable and effective to use China's military thought to guide enterprise management than the American enterprise management method." Hodges, a famous American economist, pointed out in the book The Art of War that many principles and principles revealed in the Encyclopedia of Military Management are still irrefutable and still have application value. The ancient art of war shines with fascinating brilliance in modern society. Although Sun Wu is not from the State of Wu, he has lived in the State of Wu all his life. Sun Wu's most outstanding contribution in history is that enterprise management has been spread for nearly 3000 years, and its influence has never subsided.

Two. Tian Lei in the Warring States Period

Tian Lei? Before 257), surnamed Bai, named after Duke Bai of Chu. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Chu Jun arrogantly claimed to be king, while doctors and county officials arrogantly claimed to be public. After Bai Gong won, Bai Qi was also called Gong Sunqi. Bai Qi, a native of Qin during the Warring States Period, was one of the four generals in the Warring States Period. In the history of China, he is another outstanding strategist and commander-in-chief after Sun Wu and Wu Qi. Bai Qi is another great military commander after Sun Wu in the history of China War and the most outstanding general in the history of Qin State. Tian Lei was good at fighting all his life. He fought on the battlefield for 37 years, defeated more than 70 attackers, wiped out millions of enemies, and laid the foundation for the reunification of Qin State. Historian Sima Qian praised Tian Lei for "foreseeing changes in the enemy's situation and constantly exploring the world unexpectedly". Qi Lei's main record is the Battle of Yi Que, in which the allied forces of North Korea and Wei killed 240,000 people. He attacked Chu three times, destroyed the capital of Chu, burned the ancestral temple of Chu, and annihilated 350,000 Chu troops. Zhao wiped out 600,000 Zhao people. Attack Han Wei and annihilate 300,000 people. Tian Lei wiped out 654.38+650,000 troops from six countries in his life!

Title: Wu Anjun. Location: Guo Wei. Nickname: God of War, killing human beings.

Tian Lei commanded many important battles. It defeated the Chu army, invaded Du Ying and forced the King of Chu to move the capital. Chu was never recovered. The Battle of Que wiped out 240,000 Han-Wei allied forces and completely cleared the obstacles to Qin Jun's eastward advance. The Battle of Longping wiped out 450,000 Zhao troops in one fell swoop, and started the earliest and largest encirclement and suppression war in China history. Played more than 70 games and never lost. From the lowest military attache to Wu Anjun, six countries were shocked by the smell of Tian Lei. A total of 450,000 people were killed in the battle of Changping, including 240,000 beheaded by Ike and Wei of North Korea, hundreds of thousands drowned in Shuiguan City of Chu, 6,543,803 beheaded by Wei Huayang, 20,000 killed in the battle with Zhao, and 50,000 beheaded by North Korea, totaling more than 6,543,800. In Tian Lei, this is an extremely incomplete homicide bill. According to Liang Qichao's research, 2 million people were killed during the Warring States period, and half of them died in Tian Lei. Later, due to disagreement with the king of Qin on whether to attack Zhao again, it was changed to the tomb and W.

Qi Lei's art of operational command represents the level of war development during the Warring States Period. Tian Lei is good at using his troops, analyzing the situation between the enemy and ourselves, and then adopting correct strategic and tactical policies to attack the enemy. For example, a just war, the concentration and division of the army; Heartfelt tactics in the battle of Yan Ying, accompanied by water attack; The battle of Huayang is a long-range attack. The battle of Changping lured the enemy away from the established position by feint, and then divided the siege, destroying 450,000 enemies, creating the largest annihilation war in the history of the pre-Qin war and the earliest, largest and most thorough encirclement and suppression war in the history of China. Its huge scale and brilliant achievements are also rare in the history of world wars. The battle of Changping also reflected the overall development of the war itself.

Qi Lei's operational guidance has three characteristics: first, it is not aimed at attacking cities and seizing land, but mainly at destroying the enemy's effective strength; In addition, it is good at attacking, which is the most prominent feature of Qi Lei. He is an unparalleled commander in chief who used panic tactics in the history of war. He is also one of the three military commanders who are best at fighting annihilation in the history of China War. However, it is very rare that Tian Lei advocated the war of annihilation more than 2,000 years ago. Secondly, in order to achieve the goal of annihilation, the focus is on chasing the war and the enemy, which is obviously a step forward compared with Sun Wu's "not chasing the poor" and Shang Yang's "winning in ten miles". Third, pay attention to fortifications, lure the enemy out of the base area first, and then establish base areas in areas where the enemy may be destroyed to prevent the enemy from breaking through. This kind of operational guiding ideology with fortifications as auxiliary offensive means was unprecedented at that time. The white war emphasizes practicality and actual combat effect. Although Tian Lei didn't live long for Ying Zheng to unify the six countries, his achievements laid a solid foundation for Qin to unify the six countries, and he was the first hero of Qin Shihuang's unification of the world. In 257 BC, Zhao Xiang, king of Qin, forced Tian Lei to commit suicide.

Three. Western Han Han Xin

Han Xin, a native of Huaiyin, was the founding emperor of the Western Han Dynasty. China is a great strategist, strategist, commander-in-chief and military theorist in history. One of the "three outstanding heroes of early han dynasty". He was once the king of Qi and the king of Chu, and was later demoted to Huaiyin Hou. He made great contributions to the Han Dynasty, but was later suspected by Liu Bang. Finally accused of rebellion, Lv Zhi and Xiao He tricked him into going to Changle Palace Bell Tower. He is the representative figure of Han Xin's military thought of "seeking war", and is praised as "the soldier fairy" and "the god of war" by later generations. Han Xin, the "maharaja", was appointed by one person. During the Chu-Han period, people commented on it as "Chinese studies are second to none" and "merit is the best in the world".

Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of Han Dynasty, was very happy to talk with Han Xin about the general's talent. Liu Bang asked, "What if I can do geometry?" Han Xin said: "Your Majesty can only allocate 100,000 yuan." Liu Bang asked, "How is Yu Jun?" Han Xin said: "The more ministers, the better the ears." Liu Bang said with a smile: "The more, the better. What's good for me? " Han Xin said, "Your Majesty must not send troops, but the good will do it. These words are addressed to your majesty. Your majesty's so-called godsend is not a person. "

Wei Qing and Huo Qubing in the Western Han Dynasty

Wei Qing, a middle-aged Han nationality from Pingyang, Hedong, is the younger brother of Wei Zifu, the second queen of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty. He was born in an unknown year and died in BC 106. He was an excellent general in the Western Han Dynasty and made great contributions to the development of the North.

In the second year of Guang Guang, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty decided to change the pro-Xiongnu policy in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, and launched a large-scale counterattack against Xiongnu relying on the wealth accumulated by "the rule of mountains and rivers". Starting from 129 BC, Wei Qing led his troops to the Huns seven times, with outstanding achievements. Wei Qing was rated as a city of long-term peace.

According to the tenth plan of Shu, there are 6,543,8+670,000, 22,000 and 30,000 copies of Biography of Huaiyin Hou respectively. Although Wei Qing has made great achievements in the military, it has never formed a political party. Unlike Huo Qubing, he is more sympathetic to soldiers, can share joys and sorrows with soldiers, and has high prestige. Finally, in BC 106, Wei Qing died of illness, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty buried the Mausoleum of Taizu here to commemorate his great exploits. "The funeral is like Lushan Mountain."

Wei Qing chased posthumous title "Wei Meng". Say: serving the people is the best. Make the meritorious military service with Wu Li. Abide by virtue and respect diligence.

Wei has three sons, and his mother is unknown. However, judging from the "three sons" of General Zhong recorded in Historical Records, the mothers of the three children are not the same person, nor are they real wives. Later, Wei Qing married Princess Pingyang, the sister of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty. They were buried together after their death. After the death of Wei Qing, the eldest son Wei Yi succeeded Princess Pingyang as Hou Changping.

Wei Qing's main military achievements: surprise attack on Dragon City, courtyard crescent moon, desert victory in the north.

The battle of Wei Qing leaving Gaoque should be a sign of the emergence of highly mobile cavalry in the Central Plains, which is of great significance. Make the carriage no longer the main force of the army. From then on, the Central Plains cavalry and Xiongnu galloped on the grassland. Wei Qing was the representative of these generals at that time and deserved it.

Huo Qubing, Han nationality, is from Pingyang County and Hedong County. He was an outstanding strategist in China during the Western Han Dynasty. He is Wei Qing's nephew, and Wei Qing was appointed as General Sima Biao. Good at riding and shooting, good at long-distance running. Huo Qubing led the army to attack the Huns many times. Under his leadership, the Huns were defeated by the Han army, and Huo Qubing left a famous story of "sealing wolves for business". Huo Qubing's title is Champion Hou.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty especially liked Huo Qubing. According to historical records, his army and horses are better than other generals. In the sixth year of the Yuan Dynasty, Huo Qubing, a 24-year-old general, died young. Qiaofengjing is around the city. Taking the meaning of "combining martial arts with Guangzhou" shows its intention of conquering the enemy, serving the distance, fighting bravely and expanding the territory.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very sad about Huo Qubing's death. He deployed a real army and marched along Chang 'an to Huoling. He also ordered Huo Qubing's mausoleum to be built in the shape of Qilian Mountain to show his outstanding achievements in conquering Xiongnu.

Moreover, both Wei Qing and Huo Qubing are very clever, but judging from the time, it will take about 10 years for Wei Qing to leave. Among those who resigned with Wei Qing, nine were appointed princes and fourteen were promoted to generals. And Wei Qing also accumulated considerable experience for the later study of Huo Qubing and others. At that time, it was a new thing to lead cavalry against Xiongnu. Wei Qing has played a greater role.

Six. Ban Chao in Eastern Han Dynasty

Nine. Mongolian Genghis Khan Temujin in Yuan Dynasty

Genghis Khan of the Mongolian Empire, known as Genghis Khan in history. An outstanding politician and strategist in world history. 17 1 After the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty, Kublai Khan became the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty together with Genghis Khan. The temple was named Taizu, and Emperor Shengwu left Fatien. During his reign, he launched many wars of foreign conquest and conquered the Black Sea coast of West Asia and Central Europe. Genghis Khan is a blitzkrieg hero in the cold weapon era in ancient world history. His Mongolian cavalry shocked the Christian world in Europe and the Islamic world in West Asia. He fought countless wars in his life and destroyed more than 100 countries, and the victory of military power was unparalleled. The Mongolian Empire established by his descendants is the largest empire in the world. People call them "conquerors of the world".

Genghis Khan's major military achievements: 1206 unified Mongolian ministries, defeated Xu Jinguo's main force in World War I, 12 18 wiped out Western Liao, swept Central Asia, and captured Wala.

Chen Wenhui mentioned "Liu Ji and Xu Da's views and conjectures" in a speech. He said, "Look at Xiao He and Han Xin. What is the difference between their danger and suspicion? " Zhu Yuanzhang also admitted that he was "evil" because of the so-called Chinese New Year's Eve. No matter how suspicious Zhu Yuanzhang was, Xu Da was politically loyal, economically insatiable and self-disciplined, thus avoiding the bad luck of "running dogs cooking". Zhu Yuanzhang's statement that Xu Da was killed by a steamed goose, as Zhao Yi said, is "hearsay". At that time, heroes came forth in large numbers, and fame was only a problem in the end. Xu Da and Liu Ji were the few ministers who won in the last years of Hong.

In February of the eighteenth year of Wu Hong, Xu Da died at the age of 54.
