Li Yunlong attacked Ping An County, they didn’t think so much. Li Yunlong’s starting point was simple, that his wife was kidnapped and slaughtered in the village. However, there must be strategic and tactical analysis before the attack, such as weighing the pros and cons. After an impulsive decision, calmly analyze whether to fight or not... As for the fame and fortune behind that line, including the punishment that may be faced, according to the character in the novel, Li Yunlong should not be over-analyzed, big or small, Li Yunlong It's impulsive, not to rule out a little cunning in impulse, but in general Li Yunlong is still an emotional person. Later, Li Yunlong avenged the monk and cut down a mountain of bandits that had already been incorporated. This kind of nature is not justified except for the quickness of the moment.
Because of the plot in the TV series, many people joked that Li Yunlong's attack on Ping An County was a turning point in World War II, but is it really just a joking?
After Li Yunlong took the county seat of Ping An, the entire North China’s national defense force was completely integrated. The area controlled by Japan was reduced to northeast and south China, which is equivalent to a seven-inch cobra. From then on, it can only protect itself. , Can't attack anymore. Therefore, Li Yunlong's attack on Ping'an County was a turning point in the Chinese theater of World War II, as in the novel. The Battle of Pingan in the
novel was a turning point in the World War II in North China and even the whole world. The full play of the tactics of attacking aid from surrounding areas, starting from the attack on the Ping'an County, affected the entire North China theater in northwestern Shanxi and completely disrupted the strategic layout of the Japanese army. The Japanese army had no choice but to deploy troops from other battlefields and gave the rest of the country a chance to counterattack. In the end, the Japanese army had to withdraw from the Pacific battlefield the Japanese army that was fighting with the US military and other countries. Therefore, the Battle of Pingan was the turning point of World War II, and Xiuqin was the fuse of the Battle of Pingan.
Then talk about fighting aid. If the artillery unit of the 358 regiment of Chu Bangchang did not blow up Yamamoto's car, Yamamoto would never go to Ping An County. If Yamamoto's troops were to drive back to Taiyuan in a car, Li Yunlong's tens of thousands of troops would go to a brigade of the anti-Japanese army to hit the rocks with pebbles.
also has a county squadron that fought a blockade. Of course it’s not easy to block the determined advance of the Japanese army head-on. So you see their approach is to bury mines first, then ambush them on both wings, and use minesweepers who specialize in attacking devils. Multiple lines of defense blocked in batches. In this way, even if the devil can penetrate the first few lines of defense, it will be the end of the battle to the back. As long as Pingle is won, the war will be won immediately. Owning the home game, taking advantage of the time and place, the casualties will not be very large, it is nothing more than the consumption of ammunition. But as soon as the devil comes in and out, he will have to peel off his skin.
Finally, there are only four thousand soldiers in Ping An City in the novel "The Bright Sword", and there are tens of thousands of puppet soldiers in the TV series. In the novel, Li Yunlong's so much firepower resulted in a tie between the light and heavy machine guns of the city gates with the Japanese and puppet troops, and Li Yunlong even copied the heavy machine guns himself. In the TV series, a face-off box was lost, and the garrison lost a third. In order to complete the battle in Ping'an County, the TV crew simply struggled. The crew of Yamazaki Battalion also couldn't fight hard.
I think the reason why "Bright Sword" is excellent is that the author and director can reflect both sides of humanity.
is not just that every race has good and bad people, such as Dr. Takeda who volunteered to fight against the war and came to China to rescue the Chinese. Or Qian Bojun, who turned his back on the enemy.
also reflects the pros and cons of a person at the same time. Li Yunlong is a man of flesh and blood, not perfect and indestructible. This is why I like "Bright Sword".
