After all, you can't see me in modern warfare, I can't see you, only bullets are flying through the air, but people in ancient times need to meet each other directly. Your hands will be covered with enemy blood.
This is also the reason why the ancient people liked to wear dark armor and robes to fight, one to avoid staining dust and blood, but also to have a solemn aura of slaughter, playing a deterrent role.
However, some generals with personalities want to go differently, and many leaders also wear light-colored clothes to show the uniqueness of their status, but they are sure that the people who wash their clothes under their hands must be bitter, and a battle is definitely going to change clothes.
In ancient times, many white-robed generals gave the enemy a very deep impression, and there is a sentence in the "Book of Liang" of the Southern and Northern Dynasties: "The famous army general Mo Self-prison, thousands of troops and horses avoid white robes." "Translation is that generals who have received military merit should not be complacent, and they should be complacent, even if they lead thousands of troops and horses, they must avoid the troops in white robes."
Who is the white robe referring to here? It is chen qingzhi, a famous general of the Liang Dynasty, this person must not have been heard of by everyone, compared to Zhao Yun machao, who wore white robes in the Three Kingdoms period, and Luo Cheng, who was dressed in white clothes in the Sui and Tang dynasties, his reputation was far worse, in fact, this person was not a mediocre person, he was a famous killing god in the Southern and Northern Dynasties.
Chen Qingzhi was born in Hanmen, and when he was young, he was a retinue of Emperor Xiao Yan of Liangwu, and his loyal and resourceful personality was quickly promoted by Xiao Yan, and it was not long before he was under Emperor Liangwu' men that he recognized him as a general of Wuwei.
In the sixth year of the ordinary year (525), Chen Qingzhi began to lead the army to fight, and he really lived up to the emperor's high expectations, when the Northern Wei's Xuzhou Assassin Shi Yuanfa monk rebellion surrendered to Shun Shunchao, Chen Qingzhi led the army to respond, Northern Wei saw that his feudal officials were going to commit treason, then what was it?
Northern Wei hurriedly sent the general Yuan Yanming to lead 20,000 people to pursue the traitors, Chen Qingzhi rubbed his fists, only waiting for a battle to prove himself, he and his subordinates wore white clothes and white armor, taking advantage of the fact that the Wei army had just been stationed, did not stand firm, and directly carried out the robbery.
The Wei people did not expect that the soldiers were in chaos for a long time, and Chen Qingzhi rushed left and right with his men and horses, beheaded countless people, and then went away, but because Liang Chao received traitors and leaked intelligence this time, all the Liang troops collapsed except for Chen Qingzhi's headquarters, and Chen Qingzhi could only withdraw. But when he first entered the battlefield, he had begun to slowly reveal his glory.
After two years, Emperor Wu of Liang began to worry about the land of the Wei Dynasty again, so he again sent Chen Qingzhi and the general Cao Zhongzong to lead an army to attack the Northern Wei Dynasty's Woyang, the Northern Wei Emperor was continuously harassed by the Liang Dynasty, and was completely enraged, and the Northern Wei Emperor Yuan Zhao asked the general Yuan Zhao to take 150,000 troops to fight with the Liang Dynasty for life and death.
Chen Qingzhi decided to repeat the same trick again, with two hundred Baijia subordinates, despite Cao Zhongzong's opposition, to attack the enemy camp again, as the saying goes, do not fall twice in the same place, but Northern Wei still made the old mistake, and did not pay attention to the robbery when stationed. His former army was rushed to pieces, and Cao Zhongzong led a large army to meet it, and in an instant Northern Wei was defeated and fled.
Later, under the leadership of Chen Qingzhi, the Liang Dynasty army continued to advance, destroying most of the main forces of the Northern Wei and harvesting many chassis, so Chen Qingzhi was also named the general of Fengwu and the governor of the prefecture. Wei Zhen in the north and south of China, the central plains all sighed at the prestige of the white-robed general Chen Qingzhi, and they all avoided it, and experts from the Southern and Northern Dynasties said that Chen Qingzhi's command was very powerful, even if Zhao Yun saw it, he was afraid that he would have to take a detour. This is the story of the white-robed general Chen Qingzhi.
