In the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and various warlords were fighting endlessly, they held a city, relying on their advisers and military generals, attacking one city after another, making their power continue to grow, because these warlords fought wars, the people of the world lived in the depths of the water, not only that, plus Dong Zhuo, a traitor, he used the puppet emperor to let himself have the power of the world, and the situation of the people was even worse, the name of the world was eastern Han, and the real controller was Dong Zhuo' old thief.
Although at this time, Dong Zhuo held great power in the DPRK, but there were still many capable people, in order to expel Dong Zhuo, he came up with a way. Cao Cao was such a capable person, he assassinated Dong Zhuo regardless of his own safety, but it was a pity that his assassination failed, but he was not discouraged after his failure, but constantly collected talents from all walks of life, only to use, and finally replaced Dong Zhuo's position, and rescued the trapped Emperor Xian of Han.
At this time, Liu Beike was not as comfortable as Cao Cao, although he had a lofty goal, but he had no strength, only to run around to various princes to survive, he defected to Liu Biao, Lü Bu, and also defected to Cao Cao, his strength could not fight against Cao Cao, there was no way, had to go to Zhuge Liang, known as Wolong, to create a great cause. But there was another person in the Three Kingdoms, this person was once praised by Zhuge Liang's master Sima Hui, and this person was Xun Yu.
Xun Yu's life
Xun Yu was a man of filial piety, but later because Dong Zhuo held great power in the middle of the dynasty, he thought that the world was in chaos, resigned his official position, and went home, and later his area was occupied by Yuan Shao, Xun Yu thought that Yuan Shao was not a good lord, so he went to Cao Cao, cao Cao was greatly surprised to hear his speech and demeanor, and compared him to Xiao Zhangzifang.
Xun Yu made a lot of military achievements for Cao Cao, when Chen Gong led Lü Bu to Cao Cao's rear, it was Xun Yu who advised Cao Cao and avoided a lot of losses, which shows that Xun Yu was a very quick person. Not only that, when he fought with Yuan Shao in the future, Xun Yu offered Cao Cao many good strategies, and these good strategies were the basis why Cao Cao was able to win Yuan Shao.
Xun Yu's death
Although Xun Yu was Cao Cao's courtier, he was a great loyalist, a loyal vassal of the Han Dynasty, because in his mind, although everything he had was given to him by Cao Cao, cao Cao's power was given to him by the emperor of the Han Dynasty, so in turn, everything he had was given to him by the emperor of the Han Dynasty, plus his previous official position of filial piety was also given to him by the emperor, so he thought in his heart that the emperor was the real ruler, Cao Cao was just a courtier, and his loyal person was not Cao Cao but the emperor, and he thought that Cao Cao was doing things for the emperor.
And once Cao Cao used the etiquette of his travels, it turned out to be the etiquette used by the emperor to travel, which at that time, the courtiers used the etiquette of the emperor's travel, which was a major crime of rebellion, and Xun Yu reminded Cao Cao that he had done something too much, cao Cao thought in his heart that he did not know good villains, did not know what he was thinking, so he held a grudge in his heart, always wanted to retaliate against Xun Yu. This year, when Cao Cao was beating Sun Quan, he called Xun Yu over, gave Xun Yu a bunch of official positions, and let him be an official in the account, this pile of affairs made him busy, occasionally it was no problem, but no one could stand it for a long time, Xun Yu fell ill because of this matter, and Cao Cao did not come to see Xun Yu, Xun Yu died of depression. And in history, there is another theory about Xun Yu's death, saying that Cao Cao saw Xun Yu go, but the military doctor told him not to eat hair, and what Cao Cao brought to Xun Yu was hair, not only that, Cao Cao let Xun Yu eat it while it was hot, which was obviously to let Xun Yu die, and Cao Cao's small Zhang Zifang was gone.
Evaluation of Xun Yu
Xun Yu was very important to Cao Cao, if Lü Bu had sneaked into Cao Cao's rear without Xun Yu at that time, Cao Cao would have suffered heavy losses, not only that, if there was no Xun Yu when he first attacked Yuan Shao, Cao Cao would undoubtedly lose. And Xun Yu's contribution to Cao Cao is not only a suggestion, he also recommended a large number of talents for Cao Cao, the well-known ghost talent Guo Jia, Guo Fengxiao is what he recommended, Guo Fengxiao He is Cao Cao's confidant, which shows how good Xun Yu recommends talents.
Xun Yu's whole life has been in the Restoration of the Han Dynasty, because he is very loyal to the Han Royal Family, he thinks that everything he has is given by the Han Royal Family, then he has to use all his time to repay, in fact, he has also done this, whether he is advising, or recommending talents to Cao Cao, his original intention is to restore the Han Royal Family, but no one can imagine that his words of reminder are actually hated by Cao Cao, which also becomes the basis for Cao Cao to kill him, it is really a companion like a companion tiger, he just wants to repay the kindness of the Han Royal Family.
