    As the saying goes: 'Victory and defeat are commonplace for military strategists, but military strategists do not take victory and defeat as commonplace'. When two armies fight, there will inevitably be victory and defeat. This is an irreversible law, isn't it?

    , as the commander of the army, he has won all the battles, he has been given a high official, a generous salary, and a wife and son; if he is defeated, he will either die on the battlefield or be dealt with by military law, and it will be difficult for him to survive. Only in this way can the three armies be inspired to fight.  Heart, move forward bravely and seek survival in death!

    Of course, there is no general in the world who cannot defeat a battle. He is as brave as the overlord Xiang Yu. He has fought in all directions and won more than 70 battles, big and small. But in the last battle, he was defeated miserably by Gaixia and committed suicide in Wujiang. The hero's end is so tragic.  Therefore, an excellent commander can win battles and shock the world, but he must also be able to defeat battles and retreat unscathed!

    Late at night - North Bank of the Yellow River - Yuan Jun's base camp - Chinese military tent!

    Inside the tent - bright lights are hung high, torches are lined up, and the light is like daylight. General Yuan Shao is sitting on the commander's seat, his face is as sinking as water, holding a sword in his hand, exuding cold murderous aura, with dozens of civil and military personnel standing on both sides.  The senior officials also had gloomy expressions and bowed their heads in silence In addition, there were two generals kneeling in the tent, their armors damaged and covered in blood. It was Zhang He and Gao Lan who had escaped from death!

    Yuan's army failed to attack Baima City. Generals Ma Yan and Zhang Kai were captured. More than 50,000 soldiers were killed and wounded, and countless weapons, food and fodder were lost. It was a big defeat, which directly affected the morale of the three armies and was extremely detrimental to the subsequent war.  !

    There were many reasons for the failure of the first battle. For example, Yuan's army was poorly prepared and rashly crossed the river south before understanding the enemy's situation; Cao's army was too cunning and set a trap; because of the obstruction of the Yellow River, reinforcements from Hebei failed to arrive in time  , but no matter what, a defeat is a defeat. According to the rules, someone must be responsible for it!

    The question is, who is responsible for this defeat The counselors are definitely not responsible. They are unanimously opposed to the attack. For this reason, Jushou privately discouraged him several times not to march rashly; Tian Feng even broke into the big tent and occupied it face to face.  Li argued hard and believed that Cao Cao's thieves were treacherous and that his plan of "making a claim to the east and attacking the east" was unlikely to succeed. Unfortunately, their correct opinions were not adopted. Otherwise, why would this happen?

    As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, the maker of strategic plans, and the decision-maker to issue orders, Yuan Shao has the unshirkable responsibility. If he had not rushed into the army, the army would not have suffered a disastrous defeat. However, General Yuan's attitude was very clear "This  I will never take the blame!"

    The reason is also very simple: I can¡¯t afford to lose this face!  The majestic General Yuan, after the fourth generation and the third prince, led hundreds of thousands of troops to the south. He was defeated in the first battle. It was embarrassing to say that. Besides, since ancient times, there are only incompetent ministers and no wrong lords. The offensive strategy  There will be no problem, it¡¯s just that the execution ability of the people below is too poor!

    "Zhang He and Gao Lan were incompetent in their command. They escaped from the battle and abandoned a large number of soldiers. It is an unforgivable crime Come on, push these two out and behead them in public!"

    Yuan Shao didn¡¯t want to take responsibility, so he had to find two scapegoats. His reason can be understood as: a soldier defeated the battle with a knife, the knife was guilty, and the soldier was not wrong. It is really ridiculous!

    "The two generals have served for many years. They have no merit but hard work. Please show mercy, General!"

    "The two generals fought bloody battles and were injured in many places. They have tried their best!"

    "Beheading the generals in battle will be detrimental to the army. Please forgive me, general, and let them take advantage of their crimes and make meritorious deeds!"

    ?¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    Zhang He and Gao Lan were very popular. Someone immediately came forward to intercede, including the brothers in the army and civil servants who spoke uprightly. Everyone knew that the defeat was due to Yuan Shao's misjudgment and had nothing to do with the two generals. They were bloody  He fought hard and brought back 30,000 elites. He has fulfilled his duty!

    "Hmph! For the sake of everyone, let's spare the lives of these two people for the time being, but what's more, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living penalty cannot be escaped. Each of them will be slapped with a hundred 'pins on the back' to serve as a warning to others!"

    Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Ju Yi, and Fang Yue all died on the battlefield, and all the famous generals in Hebei were destroyed. Yuan Shao didn't want to kill them either. Since everyone begged for mercy, he just went along with it, but he still had to punish him severely.  , to prove his correctness and supreme authority!

    "Promise!One hundred back flowers, execute immediately!"

    After the military order was issued and could not be changed, a group of soldiers immediately rushed forward, dragged Zhang He and Gao Lan outside the tent, took off their armor, picked up their military sticks, and began the execution

    The so-called "back-painting" is one of the punishments in the military. It is to use a military stick to whip the prisoner's back so hard that the skin is torn and blood is splattered, hence the name. It is considered a relatively severe punishment, and ordinary people suffer it.  Hundreds of 'back flowers' can range from internal organ displacement to vomiting.?Obviously: Brave and foolhardy, impulsive in times of trouble. Such a character can serve as a general, but cannot serve as a king. What a pity!

    In addition, in order to maintain the glorious image of his father, there are some things that Cao Cao cannot say clearly. His treatment of Ma Yan and Zhang Kai was just a way to show his ambition and set an example, which was used to divide and disintegrate the enemy.  !

    Just imagine, after two ordinary generals surrendered, they were high-ranking officials and well-paid. What kind of treatment should those famous generals receive when they surrendered? When news of this matter reached Yuan Jun¡¯s camp, how could Zhang He, Gao Lan, etc. not move?  As for my thoughts, if there is a similar war in the future, generals will be demoted like a tide, officials will be demoted like a hair, and the people of Hebei will definitely be defeated!

    This strategy is very powerful, but it is not aboveboard. It can only be understood, not expressed in words. Cao Cao also understands this kind of conspiracy and power in his heart. The second son Cao Pi understands it by heart. The fourth son Cao Zhi can enlighten him. As for the third son Cao Zhang, he uses a rolling pin to blow fire.  If you don¡¯t know anything about it, just give up!

    "To dominate the world, it depends on the people's hearts. It's a pity that people's hearts are easy to win, sons are hard to teach, sinister ones are unreliable, smart ones lack the city government, and bright ones have no scheming. After decades, who will hand over the power of the Cao family?"  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
