How did Zhao Hao, the general of Wei, successfully repel Zhuge Liang's tens of thousands of troops with a thousand soldiers through the battle of Chencang?

In ancient times, science and technology were underdeveloped, and external forces had a great influence on operations, especially in terms of time, place and people. In this battle of Chencang, Zhuge Liang lost because he didn't stand on his side at the right time and place. Will lead to Zhuge Liang clearly has absolute advantage, but lost the battle.

In this battle of Chencang, Zhuge Liang led tens of thousands of troops, while Chencang stationed only 1000. Arguably, under the leadership of Zhuge Liang, not to mention tens of thousands of people, even 1000 should be able to replace victory. But I didn't expect Zhuge Liang to really lose the battle. This is also one of the few humiliating battles in Zhuge Liang's life.

But for a wise man like Zhuge Liang, there is a big character defect. I just like to be able to solve it without force, so I don't need force to solve it. I've always wanted to defeat the enemy without fighting and win by strategy. But few generals in these three countries are fuel-efficient lamps. It is not so easy to defeat the enemy without fighting.

Therefore, when Zhuge Liang led tens of thousands of troops to Chencang, he could completely attack the city directly. After all, Chen Cang was not ready at this time, but Zhuge Liang thought that I had Enemy at the Gates, occupied the absolute advantage, and then let people surrender. Wasting time, but the surrender was unsuccessful. Instead, it was Chencang's soldiers who got everything ready, not only the materials for guarding the city, but also gave the defenders time to repair some new defense facilities.

It was not until the surrender was unsuccessful that Zhuge Liang began to let the soldiers attack. But at this time, Chen Cang's army has prepared everything. Zhuge Liang's rope was broken and the ladder was burned. It took 20 days. In the end, there was no choice but to retreat.

The reason why Chencang can persist for so long is that it has a good geographical advantage and belongs to the terrain that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Although Zhuge Liang led tens of thousands of troops, because of the terrain, it was impossible to push all the troops up, only thousands of people could be sent up. The other troops moved forward, but they couldn't. The territory is that big. Zhuge Liang wants to attack, the first thing he can't bypass is the city wall. Relying on the tall city wall, Chen Cang resisted Zhuge Liang's attack by tens of thousands of people with only 1000 people. Moreover, the house leaks and it rains all night. During Zhuge Liang's attack, the weather has been bad, drizzling, and people and military forces trampled on it. It's harder to get out of the way.

It is precisely because of these favorable conditions and favorable geographical conditions that the Chencang Garrison created a record of resisting Zhuge Liang with tens of thousands of troops of 1000, and the chief of this garrison, Zhao Hao, was also appreciated by Cao Wei, promoted from below, and began to have the opportunity to show his talents.
