The story we want to tell today takes place in the Warring States period, during the Battle of Changping, the generals of the Zhao State are like clouds, like Li Mu, Lian Po, Le Yi, and Tian Dan, but the King of Zhao sentenced Zhao Kuo, who was on paper, which led to the defeat of Changping, why is this? Today we will review the history and find out!
First: Why not use such a big battle as Le Yi, Tian Dan, and the Battle of Changping, the King of Zhao will never be able to hand over the troops to the generals of other countries, this is a basic trust issue. Second: Li Mu was a partial general in the north at that time, and he had not yet become famous, so he could not enter the core vision. Third: Lian Po could not hold out, and was replaced in violation of the orders of King Zhao.
Why did you send Zhao Kuo, first of all, Zhao Kuo's great decisive battle catered to the King of Zhao, at that time, Zhao Guo wanted to fight a decisive battle was not the king of Zhao alone, basically all the ministers thought so. Zhao Guo could not afford to spend, plus Lian Po had been fighting for three years without any progress. Secondly, Qin and Zhao were not weak at that time, and as some ministers far above the temple, they could not see the gap between the two countries at all. Therefore, before the Armageddon, they all wanted to win, and with the previous reasons, Zhao Kuo naturally went up. Moreover, Zhao Kuo was not weak, although he had not directly led any war, but he followed his father Zhao Hao, fought many battles, and was also a staff officer. In fact, I can also think of it, zhao guo hundreds of thousands of troops, if Zhao Kuo really will talk on paper, if there is no talent, even if king Zhao is stupid, other ministers have no objection? So in turn, Zhao Kuo is not weak.
Zhao Kuo took the initiative to attack, but Zhao Guo really couldn't afford it, so it led to the final failure, what do you think about it?
