First, cognitive bias
First of all, we know Sun Quan through the Romance of the Three Kingdoms or the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. However, both the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms are biased.
The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is an obvious honor for Liu Andu, while the author of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Chen Shou, who was himself a native of the Shu kingdom, was already an official in the Western Jin Dynasty when he wrote the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Therefore, he should be politically biased toward Cao Wei as orthodox, but he was originally a Shu national, so if he wanted to be partial to Shu in terms of feelings, then Wu Guo was naturally a little worse.
Then, everyone may have a subjective error, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Jian, this is a generation of people. And Sun Quan? If it was in the village, Sun Quan should be in charge of Cao Cao and Liu Bei shouting uncle. Therefore, Cao Cao said that having a son should be like Sun Zhongmou, not counting sun quan, and the truth should be this generation.
Are you expecting two old men in their fifties to talk to a young man in his early twenties about brotherhood?
Second, Sun Quan himself
Sun Quan really did not do anything great, everyone knows how heroic Cao Cao is, and how Liu Bei is a hero. Sun Quan, what did he do? Everyone's impression is that Sun Quan took Sun Jian's body at the age of nine, but it was fake.
There is also the "Sun Quan Persuasion" that is included in the textbook, but it has nothing to do with Wenzhi Martial Arts. Yu Qizheng was also beaten by Zhang Liao with a fart stream of urine.
100,000 people and horses replaced Zhang Liao's Wei Zhen Xiaoyaojin. Moreover, the eighty-one counties of Jiangdong were all fought down by sun ce, the only territory he expanded during his reign was only one of the parts of Jingzhou, and there was a crackdown on ethnic minorities, and then there was a sea, and in his old age, he was desolate, so who didn't such a person black him??
But if you look at Sun Quan objectively, during his reign, even Liu rejected Cao Cao, directly destroyed Cao Chengxiang's dream of unifying the world, expanded the land, was politically clear-minded, and most importantly, (it really matched his Skills in Killing the Three Kingdoms) weighed the pros and cons, and his subordinates had followed his father: Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Zu Mao, Ding Feng.
There were those who followed his brothers: Zhou Yu, Zhou Tai, Tai Shi Ci, Ling Tong, Lü Meng, Zhang Zhao. There were also those he recruited himself: Gan Ning, Lu Xun and others. Sun Quan had to adopt a different attitude towards these three generations. There are different opinions, different thoughts, not to mention the enmity between the generals (especially Ling Tong's revenge for killing his father).
It is not easy to weigh the pros and cons between these three groups of people, and to be politically clear. Moreover, in the Battle of Yiling, the young general Lu Xun was boldly adopted.
Moreover, the first time China really came to Taiwan was because of others. Sun Quan sent the generals Wei Wen and Zhuge Zhi to Seek Yi Prefecture, and the Wu army reached Yizhou (Taiwan Island) for five years (242), and then sent the generals Nie You and Lieutenant Lu Kai to sail zhuya and Dan'er (Hainan Island).
Sun Quan also actively sent people to establish friendly relations with the countries of Funan (Cambodia) and Linyi (present-day South Vietnam) outside the country, and later sent Jiaozhou Assassin Shi to send envoys to the southern countries and establish diplomatic relations with India.
And Sun Quan's biggest black spot is the Battle of Xiaoyaojin. This war is said to be that the 100,000 soldiers and horses of Eastern Wu were killed by Zhang Liao and 800 people.
However, war is inherently ever-changing, and the fact that a monarch is not good at fighting does not mean that he is not a good monarch. Moreover, a careful analysis of the Battle of Xiaoyaojin can still see a lot of things.
First, Cao Cao had led troops to attack Eastern Wu before, but it was also fruitless, indicating that the Wu army was not incapable of fighting, on the contrary, it may be very strong, because when Cao Cao fought with Sun Quan, he saw that the Wu army was in order and in an orderly manner, so he said: "When you have a son, you should be like Sun Zhongmou!" "Moreover, Eastern Wu is not good at land warfare.
Of course, some people said that 100,000 people to 800 people, really one person spit can also drown Zhang Liao. What about the Battle of Shuishui? The affairs of the battlefield are changing rapidly, and it is not said that a large number of people can win.
Second, Zhang Liao was suspected of sneaking attacks in this battle, and the beheading operation, and when he really rushed to Sun Quan, after Sun Quan's escort protected him, Zhang Liao could not kill it, and had to retreat, and it was when the Wu army was leaderless that he was killed by Cao Jun.
Third, it is true that in this battle, Zhang Liao's name was shocked, and Sun Quan did command a mess. But still that sentence, he is not a person who fights the world, Cao Cao can fight, Liu Bei can fight, then Sun Jian can also fight, Sun Ce can also fight, then with Sun Quan's generation, Cao Pi can fight? Can Liu Chan fight? Before Sun Ce died, he said to Sun Quan, "You are not as good as me when you march and fight, and I am not as good as you in governing the country."
In this war, Sun Quan is a bad fight, and Zhang Liao is powerful, but there is no need to mythologize this war so much, and there is no need to directly deny Sun Quan itself because of a war.
III. Conclusion
Comprehensive evaluation of Sun Quan, good at recognizing people, boldly adopt Lu Xun. He is good at weighing the relationship between his subordinates and balancing the interests of the three groups of subordinates, so that they can all be used for their own use.
But he is not good at war, but is an emperor who is not good at war a good emperor? Liu Bang also had the siege of Bai Deng, the Han Jing Emperor and the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, Li Shimin was so majestic, did not he ask for immortals in his later years. Therefore, Sun Quan may not be a hero who fights for the world in a chaotic world, but if he lives in a peaceful period, he will certainly be able to establish a peaceful and prosperous world similar to the rule of Wenjing.
