On the eve of the Battle of Haoshuichuan, the protagonist transmigrates to another world, becoming a scribe. He persuades Han Qi of an ambush and then devises a counter-ambush. What are the odds of victory? After all, the Song Dynasty's intelligence and coordination are very poor.
First, we must identify three inescapable fatal flaws of the Northern Song Dynasty. Regardless of who time-traveled or who says it, these three things cannot be changed: 1. The Northern Song Dynasty's border troops' secrecy capability was approximately zero. To launch a counter-ambush, you must: - Change of marching route - Divide troops - Seize the hilltop Night march, stealthy deployment
The main reasons why the Northern Song army suffered repeated defeats in foreign wars!
After Zhao Kuangyin donned the yellow robe, to prevent military generals from rebelling, he removed all civilian staff from the army, meaning even the most talented generals could only command a few thousand men! He then used the "banquet to release military power" to sideline the regional military governors, creating a situation where "soldiers didn't know their generals, and generals didn't…
If you time-travel, you have to rebel. Whether you succeed or fail, you can spread modern ideas instead of being a lackey of feudal landlords.
He received commendation from the imperial court a thousand miles away right after the battle. Fan Zhongyan traveled from Qingzhou to Weizhou in a single day to talk with Han Qi, then quickly returned to Qingzhou… The author has written several historical novels; how come traveling doesn't take time…?
The one who didn't run away after reading three chapters is this👍🏻
I didn't stick with a single chapter. This is the first time in all my years of reading that I haven't managed to stick with a single chapter. All I can say is that the author has immense love for their work.
I won't go into the obvious aspects of warfare, but making such basic mistakes is truly baffling. They won a major victory at Haoshuichuan during the day, and by evening the emperor's reward arrived. How did they manage that with the transportation conditions of ancient times? It's an 800-900 kilometer journey that would take ten hours to drive today. Did the ancients fly? Or were telephones already widespread in the Song Dynasty?
Has the author ever encountered anything in real life? Probably not, no wonder he's so "pure" (innocent/innocent).
The first chapter cracked me up. Someone with no status dared to veto the commander-in-chief's plan at a military conference—in ancient times, that would be suicidal.
The protagonist knows the enemy's situation and offers suggestions, but ends up needing his advice on everything! Among the generals and commanders in the army, who is the real expert – the protagonist or the expert? The protagonist informs the commander of the enemy situation at night, and the commander-in-chief orders scouts to go and investigate overnight.
