In ancient wars, did generals really stand at the forefront of the battlefield like they do in TV dramas?

In the ancient war, is the general really like today's TV dramas played in the front of the battlefield? This is also today so many people do not understand a problem, in fact, for today's TV series, there is a certain degree of exaggeration, according to the relevant experts to the ancient wars of various generals, is not like today's TV series inside the front of the battlefield as acted.

For the general and is the commander of an army, but also the center of an army, if the general in the war rushed to the forefront, unfortunately was killed, then then the words for the army is a very big blow, the whole army will quickly lose command, resulting in the collapse of the army, especially for the generals, more is the ability to command the battle. So for the ancient war is a harsh layout, generally speaking, the gunmen are located in the front of the whole team, can play a certain role in assassination of the opponent, and on both sides of the team is the so-called cavalry, mainly want to take a series of encirclement to take advantage of the cavalry to opponents in the middle of the opponents, which will facilitate the gunmen will be the rapid destruction of the enemy.

In the ancient times, there is a very strict system, especially for an army, want to be able to win a hundred battles on the battlefield, its own strict discipline as well as the system is indispensable, so in the battlefield at that time, the distribution of provisions. For an army general, in this battle will certainly participate, but not necessarily directly up, after all, for a general is a leader, the leader is also a commander, as long as the command, the whole team can be invincible like a sword can, and does not necessarily have to directly up.

In today's TV dramas, many TV dramas, in order to look good and beautiful and show the heroism of the generals, will let the generals first rushed to the forefront to invigorate the atmosphere, in fact, in the real battlefield this way is wrong, after all, if the generals once the enemy killed, then the whole team can be described as a group of dragons without a state, will soon collapse.
