In the battle of Jingxing, Zhao, who had an absolute advantage, finally lost.

When studying the Jingxing War, I deeply remember the excitement of our Chinese teacher. He said that not everyone's last stop in Jingxing will be successful! In the end, the battle of Jingxing left a deep impression on me. And Zhao, who had an absolute advantage in the battle of Jingxing, why did the final outcome turn out to be a fiasco? I think Zhao's arrogance and improper use of strategy led to the final outcome.

One, too arrogant. As we all know, the battle of Jingxing led a total of 200 thousand Zhao troops, which can be said to be better than Mazhuang. And at this time of Han Xin's army? Because Liu Bang took away most people, there are only tens of thousands of people in Han Xin, and most of them are the old, the weak and the sick. This gap between the two sides, we can easily see, is still particularly large. In this case, Zhao's general Chen Yu is very confident. I think even if I don't use any war skills and strategies, I can crush Han Xin's army like ants with so many troops of Zhao. This is the first point that he underestimated his opponent. And the second point, the so-called know yourself and know yourself, fight a hundred battles, and Zhao's general, don't know what kind of level Han Xin, the general of the Han army, is confident in his own ability, thinking that with his own leading ability and level of troops, he can completely win the Han army. These two points, Zhao Jun's arrogance, laid the groundwork for their failure.

Second, improper planning Anyone who has studied the battle of Jingxing knows that Jingxing is a battleground for military strategists. Its importance is that Jingxing is a long and narrow road, and chariots and people can't cross side by side. Jingxing line up easily. Therefore, in the Jingxing war, the number of people actually didn't play much role. However, Chen Yu, the general of Zhao State, is not sensitive in this respect. Even when Li Zuoche, Chen Yu's general, suggested to Chen Yu, he set an ambush in Jingxing to seize the food and necessities of Han Xin's army. Only by blocking both ends of Jingxing can the Han army retreat if it does not advance. Without food, the Han army had to surrender. But Chen Yu thinks it is not necessary. If Zhao is so arrogant, he will be laughed at by the princes and give up his strategy. It was this inappropriate strategy that led to Zhao's failure.

The old man's words are still very effective, so no matter what kind of environment we are in, we must have a clear mind and a clear understanding of ourselves. Otherwise, we can only be like Zhao. Although we have absolute advantages, we can only fail in the end.
