In the book, there are two kinds of octagonal arrays: one is called? Eight doors Jin Suozhen? , the other is called? Bagua array? . They are all eight doors.
Eight-door Jin Suozhen was used by Cao Ren when he led his troops to attack a new field. At that time, Xu Shu, Liu Bei's counselor, recognized this rule at a glance and told the secret:
Thirty-six chapters of Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Born at the gate of birth, the gate of sight and the gate of opening, injured at the gate of injury, the gate of strangeness and the gate of hanging, and died at the gate of death and Dumen.
Liu Bei followed the plan and defeated Cao Renjun.
Zhuge Liang fought against Sima Yi. Zhuge Liang put together? Bagua array? , invite sima yi to attack. Knowing this law, Sima Yi told people the secret of the broken array:
Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Today, Kong Ming's array is divided into eight categories: rest, birth, injury, supervision, scene, death, shock and opening. Can you three go due east? Born door? Infiltration, southwest? Hugh door? Fight back from the north? Open the door? Enter: This array can be broken. You care! ?
However, Sima Yi did not break the array, and the generals sent were captured alive by Zhuge Liang in the array.
All of the above are novel romances, which are really not worthy of scrutiny. If it's to kill the enemy, why leave it to the enemy? Healthy? Door? The real Eight Diagrams Array is just a type of blocking enemy lines in marching operations.
If ten people fight, go up and fight. When a thousand people are fighting, we should consider marching. With the cover of your comrades-in-arms, you just need to concentrate on dealing with the enemy in front. However, once the formation is broken, the soldiers will be attacked on all sides and will inevitably flee.
In fact, this eight diagrams array is to arrange soldiers together according to reasonable geometric figures. One is to disperse the enemy's attack direction, and the other is to avoid leaving soldiers in a position of being attacked on all sides. Of course, more importantly, it is easy to command. Because, in ancient times, communication was inconvenient and basically depended on shouting. After the soldiers are formed, they just need to remember where they are and who they are with. And generals rely on layers of command, can make tens of thousands of troops? Like an armband? .
As for what is said in the novel? Eight doors? That's an exaggerated description of myth. Unreasonable, secretive.
However, the real war, all the people? Bridge meets water, mountain meets mountain? . Nobody really "walks the door"! For those formations, it must be a direct hit. Especially in novels? Leave someone alive? Setting, that's ridiculous. No one is stupid enough to follow the formation set by the enemy.
And in history, Zhuge Liang's Eight Diagrams actually relied on it? Soldiers? (? Car treatment? ), stop the enemy from charging. Most descendants think that this formation is mainly used to stop the impact of Cao Wei cavalry. According to Shu Wei, in order to stop Rouran cavalry in the Northern Wei Dynasty:
Using Zhuge Liang's eight-array method is the way to resist bandits on the ground?
According to ZhuGeJiLiang Chen Shou compiled:
If a thief rides around, he will fight from the line, so it is inconvenient to climb the mountain. It is wise to wait for him by car. If the land is narrow, wait with sawtooth.
Malone, a famous soldier in the Western Jin Dynasty, used to follow the eight-array diagram and push a chariot with protective plates for attack and defense. Side car? ) hit. The army can rely on chariots to defend against the enemy's charge, or let soldiers hide behind chariots and attack the enemy's formation.
