How did the battle of Yiling in the history of the Three Kingdoms win?

The first thing to say is that this is not a battle to win more with less. The two armies are evenly matched, and even a little more Wu Bing (80,000 in Shu and 65,438+10,000 in Wu Jun). ? While Liu Bei's front was too long, and he went deep into the hinterland of Jingzhou, while Wu Bing waited early and had sufficient backup.

1.700 Li or so: It means that Liu Beijun has been going deep into Wujing for more than 300 kilometers from the east of Yizhou (Yong 'an and Baxian) (Yiling-Xiaoting area of Yidu County)? The terrain in this area is complex and the mountains are high, so the troops can only be stationed in the valleys on both sides of the Yangtze River. For example, Huang Quan camped on the north bank of the Yangtze River to guard against Cao Wei's attack; Nan 'an sent Liang to Wuling to win the cooperation between Sha Qi, the local tribal leader, and the Shu-Han army.

2. About the camp: I think there are two reasons. First, Liu Beibing is strong, defensive, full of momentum and eager to win. Wu Jun has retreated from the edge of the Shu army. The Shu and Han armies were paralyzed, thinking that Wu Jun did not dare to attack, and the weather was hot, so they camped in a lush place; Second, the local terrain is dominated by mountains, surrounded by only vegetation, unlike the Central Plains, which has open plains.

3. About advance and retreat: At that time, Liu Bei did not want to occupy many areas of Jingzhou, and had not yet reached Nanjun, the hinterland of Jingzhou, but only occupied the area along the river from Wuxian to Xiling.

4. About fire attack: This is related to the third point. Lu Xun sent Zhu Ran and 5,000 men to break through the front of the Shu army and cut off the retreat of the Shu army. Said Pan Zhang led troops to break feng department. In Xiaoting, Zhu Gejin, Luo Tong and Zhou Yin cooperated with Lu Xun's main force to attack the Shu army. Defending Yi Dao, Sun Huan also took the initiative to fight. It is equal to being wrapped in a sedan chair. The enemy is attacked from front to back, and there are valleys on both sides, so few people can escape. Liu Bei also relies on the elite Bai Mingjun desperate guards to escape. ? Being surrounded by Wu Jun on three sides, he had to surrender to Cao Jun in the north.

PS: In romance, 700,000 is bullshit, 78,000 is all there, and Wu Bing is about 6.5438+10,000. Excluding the troops camped along the way and Huang Quan's troops, the actual front main force is only fifty thousand people, much less than Wu Bing. In World War I, Liu Bei lost 67,000 (plus more than 10,000 troops who surrendered to Sun Wu) and was greatly weakened. You know, the Shu-Han army in its heyday was only 13400 yuan, which was equivalent to losing half of it in one battle. ?

I'll give you another map I marked for reference, and just look at the surrounding terrain. Click to enlarge, it is from Yiling area.
