Wikipedia's "Prehistoric War" entry states that prehistoric humans fought "many times with sticks and stone axes. Later, in order to survive by hunting some large and fast-moving animals, humans invented bows, arrows, spears, slingshots and other weapons with a longer attack range. This brought a new revolution to prehistoric warfare." This passage describes a simple prehistoric war (mainly used to face large beasts), so only improvements in the invention and use of "weapons" can bring about huge changes in warfare. However, as human tribes continue to migrate and their ability to control territory continues to expand, sooner or later they will encounter another tribal group or even another country. The problems they need to face in war will become increasingly complex. Formations, tactics, logistics supplies, and the professionalism of the army will all have an impact on the outcome of the war. The reader does not need to know any historical knowledge in advance, and there are no long paragraphs of document citations. This is a book that allows you to easily understand the historical details of warfare in the cold weapon era. It also involves part of the knowledge of war formations in the early days of hot weapons: why did the nomadic peoples of northern China invade the Central Plains many times in ancient times? In a melee, how to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy and prevent accidental injuries? Are stirrups necessary for mounted archery? When did mercenaries first appear? With cold weapons alone, which one is more powerful, the modern army or the ancient army? ... Finally, I wish for world peace for all human beings who have crossed forests, deserts, mountains, rivers, lakes and seas and have met in the long history.
