Cao Cao's original surname was Xiahou, and he later recognized the eunuch Cao Teng as his ancestor, so Cao Cao was both a member of the Xiahou family and a member of the Cao family. Cao Cao was very important to xiahou brothers, such as Xiahou Huan and Xiahou Yuan, and Cao Cao often entrusted them with military power and let them lead troops to fight.
In particular, Xiahou Yuan, who had once served as a scapegoat for the boss Cao Cao, made Cao Cao very moved. It turned out that Cao Cao was a chaotic demon king when he was a child, and he often caused trouble. Once, when a crime was committed, the government wanted to arrest Cao Cao. It was the righteous Xiahou Yuan who took the initiative to stand up, covered Cao Cao's guilt, and was imprisoned. Later, Cao Cao opened the joints and rescued Xiahou Yuan.
Since then, Xiahou Yuan has become Cao Cao's confidant general, following Cao Cao all the way to the south and the northern war, and pacifying the world.
Xiahou Yuan has a characteristic, that is, fast, fast as lightning. At that time, there was such a sentence, "Xiahou Yuan, a lieutenant of the Military Academy, is five hundred in three days and one thousand in six days." With lightning speed, he was good at annihilating the enemy in the movement, helping Cao Cao defeat Yuan Shao, defeating Ma Chao, and making great achievements.
Of course, gold has no red gold, and no one is perfect. Xiahou Yuan also has shortcomings, that is, impatience, impulsiveness, bravery and fierceness, a bit like Lü Bu. When Xiahou Yuan confronted Liu Bei in Hanzhong, Cao Cao wrote a letter to warn him that as a general, he should not be brave and brave, but should use more strategy. However, Xiahou Yuan did not take it seriously, so much so that he was hacked to death by Huang Zhong in the Battle of Dingjun Mountain.
Xiahou Yuan died, but he left behind seven sons, all heroes, all of whom were good men in the history of the Three Kingdoms.
The eldest son, Xiahou Heng, inherited Xiahou Yuan's title and married Cao Cao's niece. Needless to say, the glory and wealth are inexhaustible.
The second son is very powerful, the famous Xiahou Ba, a famous general of the Three Kingdoms. After his father Xiahou Yuan was killed by Huang Zhong, Xiahou Ba, furious, swore to avenge his father, so in the battle against the Shu army, he always charged forward.
However, history is so playful. Xiahou Ba was originally a relative of the Cao clan, but when Sima Yi usurped cao's power, Xiahou Ba, as Cao Shuang's pro-party, became the target of the blow and bloodbath. Where will the country go when the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed?
Desperate, Xiahou Ba had no choice but to surrender to the Shu state. Why surrender to the enemy? It turned out that the enemy country had relatives. During the war that year, Zhang Fei snatched Xiahou Ba's cousin as his wife, and the daughter born to him became the empress of the later lord Liu Chan. Therefore, Xiahou Ba came to the Shu kingdom to recognize his relatives.
When Xiahou Ba arrived, the empress dowager Liu Chan kindly pointed to his son and said to Xiahou Ba, This is also a descendant of the Xiahou family! Xiahou Ba suddenly became a royal relative of the Shu kingdom, and of course was reused. Later, Xiahou Ba and Jiang Wei fought together against the State of Wei and made many military achievements.
The old Sanxia Hou said that since he was a child, he had the courage of a general and often played some games of commanding troops to fight. In order to cultivate him, Xiahou Yuan let him learn the art of war and become a great general in the future. However, Xiahou said that talent is innate, there is there, there is no, learning has an egg? At the age of 16, Xiahou claimed to have personally shot and killed a tiger.
Cao Cao liked the child very much, took his hand and said, I finally found a character like you, ready to be reused, but Xiahou said that he suddenly died in the year of 18. What a shame.
The fourth Xiahou Wei, the fourth, later became the Assassin of Yanzhou. There is also a famous allusion about him.
When Xiahou Wei was young, a jianghu warlock showed him a picture, saying that he could become a high official like a state pastor at the age of 49, but at the same time he would suffer a disaster. If you can survive it, you can live to 70, if you can't survive it, I'm afraid it's unimaginable. When he was 49 years old, Xiahou Wei did indeed become the Assassin of Yanzhou, and at the same time he suffered from a strange disease, Xiahou Wei was nervous and wrote a will in advance.
However, at the end of the year, Xiahou Wei felt that his body was fine again. On the last night of that year, Xiahou Wei feasted on the guests and excitedly announced that I could live to 70. Who knows, this is just a return to the light. At night, Xiahou Wei suddenly passed away.
The old Fifth Xiahou Rong was intelligent since childhood and had the ability to never forget. Once, Cao Pi invited guests to a banquet, and there were one hundred and ten people. Xiahou Rong only looked at their resumes once, and then talked to them separately, and was completely able to sit in the right seat, which was not bad at all.
When his father, Xiahou Yuan, died in battle, Xiahou Rong was only 13 years old. His subordinates advised him to flee quickly, but Xiahou Rong said that his father had died in battle and that An could live in the world. So, rushed into the formation, fought and died.
Xiahou Hui, the elder Liuxia, was talented, eloquent, good at writing articles, and was a famous writer during the Three Kingdoms period. Moreover, the career path is smooth, and Li Shan rides the Yellow Gate Waiter and Le An Taishou.
The old Seventh Xiahou He had served as a high-ranking official such as Guanglu Xun and Tai Chang. In the later years of Emperor Wu of Jin, the imperial court wanted his younger brother to succeed him. Xiahou He also had this attitude. He said to Jia Chong, a confidant of Emperor Wu of Jin, that Li Ren should be a li de, and that King Qi was highly respected and your son-in-law, so you should recommend him. However, Emperor Wu of Jin eventually established his own son, the idiot emperor Emperor Hui of Jin. Xiahou He was demoted for his involvement in royal family affairs.
These were Xiahou Yuan's seven sons, none of whom were mediocre. Xiahou Qijie, Wei Zhen Three Kingdoms. It's really a tiger father without a dog.
