Let's talk about the Yangping Pass and the problem of the battle loss ratio.

First of all, Yangping Pass does not have the precipitous and dangerous city pass and fortress. It is very different from such narrow fortresses as Tongguan, Hangu Pass, and Chencang.

It is known as the gateway of Yizhou mainly because of its important geographical location. Because Yangping Pass has a Guan character, this makes many readers mistakenly think that Yangping Pass is a Xiongguan that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, which is just a place name, not the name of a Guan City.

Yangping Pass is actually not so easy to defend as imagined, Zhang Lu laid Yangping Pass, Cao Cao laid Yangping Pass, Liu Bei also laid Yangping Pass, and changed hands several times...... As for Shu Han, because he took Wudu, there was a buffer land.

If you want to defend Yangpingguan, there are only two ways, either to build a city wall by the mountain, or to build a village under the mountain.

In the history of the Three Kingdoms, Zhang Lu sent Zhang Wei and Yang Ang to lead tens of thousands of people to guard Yangping Pass, and there were many of them, so they chose to build a city wall, and built a city wall by the mountain and danger, which stretched for more than ten miles, and Cao Cao's attack and defense were broken for several days.

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Luo Guanzhong wrote about establishing a camp at the foot of the mountain, which was broken by Xiahou Yuan.

I consulted a lot of information, not a blind writing, the establishment of the city pass is more than ten miles long, built by the mountain, there is a mountain in the middle of the block, the city is not between the two mountains, the city is certainly not connected. With such a long city pass and no communication, how can Pang De defend it with only 10,000 people? Only outside the mountains is the village.

When a village is set up outside the mountain, the soldiers and horses are concentrated, which is easier than dispersing the troops and defending in the city.

But will you be able to stand up to it if you defend? When the enemy is strong and I am weak, I can't hold it in a steep place, not to mention that Yangping Pass is not easy to defend.

It feels like your mind is that Yangping Pass is so steep that it only takes a few people to defend it.

As for the battle loss ratio, the Hanzhong army suffered 4,000 casualties, and the Cao army suffered 6,000 casualties, I still think that the Cao army suffered more casualties, the Cao army took turns attacking with 1,000 people, and each department was commanded by a general.

Since ancient times, the besieging side has lost more than the defending side, but the specific problem should also be looked at specifically. Xiahou Yuan divided his troops to attack the village and took the advantage, and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers on Pang De's side was not as good as Cao's army, and he could replace and kill 2,000 more people, which was already relying on the advantage of the terrain.

If you want to blindly pursue a battle loss ratio of several times, then let me ask you, in history, Cao Jun led his troops to attack Yangping Pass, and Zhang Wei rated

Tens of thousands of people were stationed in the city pass, and Cao Cao's troops did not exceed 100,000 at that time, right? Cao Jun took Yangping Pass, so should Cao Cao's army be wiped out?

In the battle of Yiling, Lu Xun built countless camps in the mountains, which dragged Liu Bei for several months, and Liu Bei captured countless camps. ）
