"Since ancient times, loyalty and righteousness have been a dilemma". There are only a few people in history who have achieved loyalty and righteousness, and people who can do so are considered perfect people, after all, it is difficult to bring together contradictory things, but the record has been broken, and miracles will always be created.
If we talk about which era of human brilliance is the most destructive, there is one era that will surely rank among the best - the Three Kingdoms period. During the Three Kingdoms period, although the world entered a situation of division, in this era there were many bright personal colors - loyalty, filial piety, righteousness, and etiquette.
It is true that the most active Chinese thought and the period of the highest etiquette and morality were during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and only began a "hundred schools of thought" that swept the whole country, but if we want to say that the words loyalty and righteousness are the most prominent in which era, it must be the Three Kingdoms period, when there was a person who was praised as the perfect courtier - Zhao Zilong.
The loyalty of the dragon
When the world is in turmoil, it is the time when the heroes are chasing the deer in the world, and the world at this time is indeed the people's livelihood, but there are many characters who brilliantly exude their own brilliance in this, such as Zhang Yide of the Three Armies of the Yongguan, Guan Yunchang of the World, Zhuge Liang of Nanyang Wolong, and Zhao Zilong, who is full of courage.
Compared with the first three famous Shu celebrities, Zhao Zilong is a relatively special existence. Zhao Yun, the character Zilong, he accompanied Liu Bei around for more than thirty years in his life, alongside Guan Yu Zhang Fei. Zhao Yun, who has such a reputation, has not had a great victory in a battle worthy of attention in his life.
His most impressive thing is the case of "seven in and seven out, save Ah Dou", only this battle made the name of the white horse general famous in the world, and everyone also thought that Liu Bei had another tiger general under him who was brave and good at war, but the facts were a little incomprehensible.
Zhao Yun's highest official position in his life only reached the rank of general of the Zhen Army, and after his death, he was only the Marquis of Shunping. Such an official career makes it difficult for people to imagine that this will be an official position that The dragon exchanged Zhao Zilong for his merits. Could it be that Zhao Yun is an unworthy paper tiger, just an exaggerated character in the book?
The answer to this question is very clear, that is, Zhao Yun must be a veritable tiger general. Zhao Yun studied under Tong Yuan, who was a master of marksmanship, and many of his disciples became capable warriors during the Three Kingdoms period. The talented Zhao Yun was Tong Yuan's closed disciple, and his talent could be imagined.
In the marksmanship taught by Tong Yuan, Zhao Yun made improvements and changes, writing the "Seven Exploration Pan Snake Gun", with which Zhao Yun defeated his fellow brothers one by one. Such a powerful warrior, why did Liu Bei refrigerate his subconscious and not reuse it on the road of Kuang Fu Han Room?
Zhao Yun spent his life searching for the king of Rende, and since Zhao Yun and Liu Bei met twice, Zhao Yun identified Liu Bei's relatives and immediately turned to Liu Bei. In the thirteenth year of Jian'an (208), after Cao Cao unified the north, he focused his attention on the south and other places, and in the same year, Cao Cao moved his army south.
Cao Cao announced the crusade documents to the south and other places in the name of Emperor Xian of Han, so as to achieve "becoming famous". At that time, Liu Biao, the mu of Jingzhou, died, and his son Liu Zong took the throne, and in the face of Cao Cao's menacing Liu Zong, who was the mu of Jingzhou, he had no intention of fighting, and immediately chose to surrender.
However, Liu Bei never heard of the news of Liu Zong's surrender and Cao Cao's southward march, and it was not until Cao Cao's soldiers approached the city that liu Fu discovered Liu Zong's initiative to betray the alliance, and in order to save liu bei's life, he and his family and a group of henchmen began to flee. After Cao Cao learned of Liu Bei's escape, he immediately sent five thousand tigers and leopards to ride, intending to arrest Liu Bei and others.
The tiger and leopard rode as an elite army under Cao Cao, and it did not take long to catch up with Liu Bei and others, so In a hurry, Liu Bei abandoned his family and fled with only his brother. In the Changshan Slope, the tiger and leopard rode to catch up with Liu Bei, and Zhang Fei left the Changshan Slope with a hundred horses to protect the people.
Just when Liu Bei was frightened for Zhang Fei, Liu Bei found that one of his brothers was missing, Zhao Yun. People around Liu Bei all agreed that Zhao Yun had defected to Cao Cao for Zhao Yun's disappearance, but Liu Bei was convinced based on the feelings between the two that Zhao Yun would not do so.
History has given Zhao Yun a proper name, and the reason why Zhao Yun and Liu Bei rode alone in reverse was to go back to rescue Liu Bei's family. Zhao Yun broke into Cao's camp alone, and his martial arts and bravery made Cao Cao have a heart of love for talents, so he ordered Zhao Yun to be captured alive.
Countless battles illustrate one thing - without the invincible God of War, the reason why Zhao Yun was able to enter and exit cao's camp seven times had a great relationship with Cao Cao's orders. However, Zhao Yun's martial arts and courage were indeed enough to make people afraid, and in the end, Zhao Yun relied on his own strength to bring Liu Bei's family back to Liu Bei.s side.
Zhao Yun's move showed his incomparable righteousness toward Liu Bei, and After Liu Bei became emperor, Zhao Yun showed his loyalty. In the first year of Zhang Wu's reign, Liu Bei was proclaimed emperor, and the Shu state was established from then on. After Liu Bei established the country, Liu Bei immediately expressed his determination to attack Sun Quan.
In the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an, Guan Yu carelessly lost Jingzhou, and then defeated Maicheng, and a generation of military generals were beheaded by the military generals of Sun Quan's forces in this year. As soon as this news reached Liu Bei's ears, it made Liu Bei furious and grief-stricken, and secretly determined to kill Sun Quan in his heart.
The Shu state has just been established, and there are many matters and construction that take time to develop, so this is not the time for the Shu state to make a big move with the outside world. However, Liu Bei was called empress, and the anger in his heart, combined with the self-confidence of being called empress, made it difficult for Liu Bei to hide his determination to launch a war.
Faced with Liu Bei's intention to resolutely crusade against Sun Quan, Zhao Yun, out of the future of the country and his loyalty to Liu Bei, vigorously persuaded him to tell that this was not the time to attack Sun Quan, and revenge needed to be considered in the long run. However, Liu Bei was furious, and did not heed Zhao Yun's advice, insisting on launching a war, and no one listened to anyone's advice.
The helpless Zhao Yun originally planned to prepare for the conquest, but Liu Bei let him stay in Jiangzhou and had no intention of taking Zhao Yun on the expedition. Liu Bei left a military general suitable for attack to defend the position, which was undoubtedly a move that did not intend to reuse Zhao Yun, but how could Zhao Yun, who was loyal and righteous, encounter Liu Bei treated him like this?
Liu Bei's thoughts
In fact, since Zhao Yun of Changbanpo saved Ah Dou, Liu Bei had the psychology of refrigerating Zhao Yun. For Liu Bei, Zhao Yun went to rescue his family members without his orders, which was the embodiment of not listening to Liu Bei's orders, and not listening to the leader's words was tantamount to opposing the leader, and it was also reasonable to be refrigerated.
When Liu Bei decided to avenge his brother Guan Yu, Zhao Yun persuaded Liu Bei with extremely profound reasons and reasons, which were in the eyes of others a manifestation of loyalty to the country, and his courage and wisdom were enough to be praised, but Liu Bei was angry at the time, and how could Liu Bei listen to the advice at this time.
Coupled with his feelings for Guan Yu, Liu Bei became more powerful than Sun Quan now, so it was imperative for Liu Bei to fight sun quan. For Liu Bei, Zhao Yun was the only remaining brother in the world, but Zhao Yun prevented himself from avenging another brother.
Zhao Yun's move completely disappointed Liu Bei, believing that the Zilong who was once full of guts was no longer there, and should not be reused in the future. In summary, it is the reason why Liu Bei refrigerated Zhao Yun, and for these reasons, Liu Bei did not forget to warn Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang before he died that zilong should not be reused.
brief summary
Zhao Yuan, who was known as a Confucian general, did not achieve dazzling feats in his whole life, such a life is a pity, if Liu Bei did not think much, Zhao Yun understood Liu Bei's thoughts, then Zhao Yun would not create a reputation comparable to Guan Yu's might?
Zhao Yun was known as a perfect warrior during the Three Kingdoms period, although he could not be reused in his life, but the second half of his life did not have much waves until his death, and such an ending was also a good ending.
