10. Battle of Julu

In 207 BC, Qin Jun general Zhang Han defeated Xiang Liang, the leader of the anti-Qin rebels in Chu. He thought that Chu could not stand the wind and waves, so he led more than 200 thousand to attack Zhao. At the same time, the king led two hundred thousand troops south, and the prince of Zhao was besieged and rested in Julu. In desperation, the prince of Zhao sent messengers to the governors of Chu Huaiwang and other countries for help. At that time, it was very fierce. The army that saved Zhao was stationed north of Julu, and no one dared to confront it. Xiang Yu volunteered to avenge Qin Jun's killing of his uncle Xiang Liang, so Chu Huaiwang took Yi Song as the general, Xiang Yu as the deputy general and Fan Zeng as the last general, and led an army of more than 60,000 people to the north to solve the plight of Julu.

When Zhao Dajun arrived in Anyang, Yi Song was frightened by Qin Jun's arrogance and stayed there for 46 days, afraid to move forward. Xiang Yu condemned Yi Song's cowardice and killed him. Xiang Yu was named General, and Ying Bu and Pu were named General.

Xiang Yu first sent Ying Bu and General Pu as pioneers to cross the river, cutting off Qin Jun's grain transportation channel. Then Xiang Yu took the lead in crossing the river and ordered all the soldiers to cross the river, each carrying only three days' dry food to show his determination to do or die. Xiang Yu said to the men, "We will only advance this time when we send troops to Julu. We must defeat Qin Jun in three days. " Xiang Yu's determination and courage to cross the rubicon greatly inspired the morale of the soldiers. The morale of the Chu army was greatly boosted, and they fought bravely, winning nine wars and defeating Qi, Qi, Yan and Wei. Waiting to save Zhao's army. When Chu's army attacked Qin Jun, they rushed out of the camp to help. Finally, they caught the commander of Qin Jun, Wang Li, and killed his lieutenant. The plight of the giant deer was thus solved.

Because of this war, the state of Qin can be said to exist in name only, and this war has been praised by future generations forever.

The decisive victory of the Han army in the northern battlefield directly threatened Xiang Yu's ruling center and laid the foundation for turning into a counterattack.

8. Battle of Guandu

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial court was incompetent, which led to frequent wars. Shortly after the end of the Yellow turban insurrectionary uprising, the tyrannical rulers who suppressed the uprising fought for the Central Plains. Yuan Shao, the biggest separatist force in the north, thought he was powerful and tried to destroy Cao Cao. However, Cao Cao relied on the emperor to make the princes rectify government affairs, cultivated land and grain, and stepped up preparations against Yuan Shao. In the fifth year of Jian 'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Cao was able to gather nearly 20,000 troops in Guandu, waiting for a decisive battle with Yuan Shao. In February, Yuan Shao led a hundred thousand troops and tens of thousands of cavalry occupied Liyang. Xun You, Cao Cao's counselor, made a diversion and pretended to cross the North. Yuan Shao marched westward, Cao Cao marched eastward, beheaded Yuan Shao's general Yan Liang, killed Wen Chou, and defeated Yuan Jun greatly.

Yuan Shao repeatedly refused the suggestion that his men divide their forces to attack the capital city of Xudu, in an attempt to wait for the collapse of Cao Jun's grain and grass and attack and annihilate it. Later, when Cao Jun was short of food, the foot soldiers were tired and there was a rebellion in the rear, Cao Cao persisted. Soon, an Indiana Jones attacked and burned the grain truck in Yuan Jun, forcing Yuan Shao to divide his forces to protect and transport grain and grass. Yuan Shao once again rejected the suggestion of dividing the army to attack Duodu. Under the banner of Yuan Jun, Cao Cao pretended to be reinforcements and burned Yuan Shao's food overnight. At dawn, Cao Cao knew that Yuan Jun reinforcements were coming, and Enemy at the Gates wiped out more than 70,000 main forces of Yuan Jun and Yuan Jun, and all military resources were seized. Yuan Shao only fled north with more than 800 troops and never recovered. Thus, the convenience of the north opened the Cao era.

7. Battle of Red Cliffs

In the thirteenth year of Jian 'an, Cao Cao's ambition of dominating the world was put on the agenda and invaded the south on a large scale. At that time, Liu Biao in Jingzhou was dead, and his son Liu Cong was incompetent and surrendered without a fight. Cao Cao easily incorporated Liu Biao's troops, claiming that 800,000 troops continued to advance toward the Yangtze River. At this time, after Liu Bei was defeated by Cao Jun in Nagano, he sent Zhuge Liang to Chai Sang to meet Sun Quan, who returned from the army, and expressed his desire to join hands with Sun Quan to fight against Cao.

After analyzing the current situation, Soochow generals Zhou Yu, Lu Su and Zhuge Liang pointed out that although there were more than 200,000 troops, there were weaknesses such as instability in the rear, long-distance toil, acclimatization and water shortage, which further strengthened Sun Quan's determination to form an alliance with Liu Bei against Cao. Therefore, Sun Quan appointed Zhou Yu as the commander in chief, Cheng Pu as the deputy commander, and led 30,000 elite water troops to meet Liu Beijun at Fankou. About 50 thousand people marched west along the river to meet Cao Jun, and they were not good at water warfare, which was also worthy of epidemic. Stopped by Sun and Liu Lianjun at Chibi. Your fighting capacity was greatly reduced, and your first battle was frustrated. He was forced to be stationed in the Wulin area in Jiangbei, facing the Allies across the river. Cao Cao also followed the adviser's advice and ordered the warships to be connected end to end, so that the soldiers could practice and wait for an opportunity to attack.

On the side of Sun-Liu alliance, Zhou Yu adopted the fire attack plan put forward by Huang Gai and ordered him to send a letter to Cao Cao to pretend to surrender in order to win by surprise. Cao Cao was confident and sure of winning, but his guard was relaxed. Huang Gai chose the right time, sent a boat near Cao Jun, and ordered the firewood on the boat to be lit. The fireboat sailed into the Jun fleet, and immediately a sea of fire spread to the shore camp. Jun suffered heavy casualties, and Zhou Yu and others led the army to kill him, and Jun was defeated. Cao Cao led the remnant army to flee from Huarong Road, losing most of its troops, unable to fight again and losing ground. After the First World War, the situation of the Three Kingdoms was basically formed, and Cao Cao's ambition to unify the whole country came to an end temporarily.

6. Battle of Hefei

In 2 15, Sun Quan led a hundred thousand troops to Hefei. At this time, Zhang Liao, Li Dian and Le Jin were guarding Hefei, but their forces were far apart, because Cao Cao had just fallen in Chibi, and there were not many soldiers left in Hefei. So, on the eve, Zhang Liao recruited brave men, got 800 men, and rewarded the sergeant with killing cattle to prepare for tomorrow's war. At dawn, Zhang Liao, wearing armor and holding a halberd, took the lead, killed dozens of people and beheaded two generals. Zhang Liao let out a cry and rushed into the barracks, reaching Sun Quan's camp. Xu was defeated by two men, and his morale was in chaos. Pan Zhang followed, galloped to catch up, and immediately killed two deserters, He Xu. Seeing this situation, the soldiers all fought back. Sun Quan was scared out of his wits by this scene, so he had to climb to the top of the mountain and pick up the halberd for self-defense.

Zhang Liao dismissed Sun Quan without fighting, but Sun Quan did not dare to move. Seeing that Zhang Liao had few troops, he ordered the sergeant to surround the Zhang Liao army. Zhang Liao rushed out and surrounded the open gap. There were dozens of people under Zhang Liao.

Ling Tong fought back when he saved Sun Quan. But the bridge on the retreat road has been destroyed by the enemy, and there are no boards. At this time, Sun Quan walked behind Guli's horse and let Sun Quan catch the saddle and loosen the reins. After Coulee urged his horse to stay behind, Sun Quan successfully jumped over the river. He Qi's escort was met in Jinnan, and Sun Quan managed to escape. Ling Tong and Gan Ning continued to stop the enemy. All the left and right armies were killed and wounded, and dozens of people died. Knowing that Sun Quan was safe and sound, they sneaked away in armor.

In this World War I, Zhang Liao was a great threat to Wei and Wu, which worried Sun Quan. Even years later, Zhang Liao was old and ill. Sun Quan also said: "Although Zhang Liao is ill, be careful!"
