Since ancient times, heroes love the country more than beauty, and between the two, the hero will choose one, but this does not mean that the heroes only have these two choices. Some heroes will choose the third one between Jiangshan and the beauty, that is, brotherhood, and there are many people who insert knives for the two ribs of the brothers.
Throughout China's history, the heroes who can do righteousness and righteousness, loyalty and courage have always been a minority, and most of the characters who can do it have been jokingly called the Dead Brain Sutra, but only one person has been revered by people, until the present world when people worship will let you as a witness, the heart of worship.
There was only one person with such influence in ancient and modern times--Wusheng Guan Yu. Although Guan Yu's name is often talked about, it is Guan Yu's thin and cloudy spirit that is popularized. Liu Bei was able to escort Yu, and the general situation in the world was at his fingertips, and Zhou Yu was very thorough about this.
Guan Yu's ability
Since China's pursuit of courtesy, righteousness, and shame, people have had a great admiration for those who abide by morality, and out of this psychology, modern people still worship Guan Yu. So why can Guan Yu make future generations worship him so much? There are two reasons - the use of force to cover the world, righteousness and thin clouds.
Guan Yu, the character Changsheng, later changed to YunChang, left his hometown because of an incident in his hometown. Soon after living in a foreign land, Guan Yu met Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, and the first time the three of them met, it was as if they hated each other, and then they formed a volunteer army together to fight for the goal in their hearts.
Soon the three of them met like brothers, and the combination of various factors made the three brothers have a determination in their hearts not to betray each other. In the fifth year of Jian'an (200), Cao Cao was indignant when he learned that Emperor Xian of Han had written an edict to Liu Bei, so he sent an army to attack Liu Bei, who was then xuzhou.
The arrival of Cao Cao's army made Liu Bei panic, and Liu Bei even felt that Cao Cao's heart was fierce, and if he fell into Cao Cao's hands, it would be fish on the chopping board and slaughtered. After liu bei's many thoughts, Liu Bei immediately went north to join Yuan Shao in order to seek Yuan Shao's protection.
Liu Bei's panicked packing left Guan Yu too late to prepare, so Guan Yu was accidentally captured by Cao Cao and reluctantly surrendered to Cao Cao. When Cao Cao first saw Guan Yu, he saw from his expression and eyebrows that Guan Yu must not be a general person, so he treated him with kindness.
In order to determine Guan Yu's thoughts, Cao Cao repeatedly sent his men to test Guan Yu. In the face of Cao Cao's temptation, Guan Yu righteously and awe-inspiringly stated that he could not betray his brother Liu Bei. After Cao Cao inquired about Guan Yu's intentions, instead of being angry, he greatly appreciated Guan Yu's righteousness.
Guan Yu was treated more and more favorably, but Guan Yu was not impressed by this. After Guan Yu cut Yan Liang off his horse, Cao Cao's "Siege of the White Horse" was unraveled, and Guan Yu, who had made meritorious contributions, had proof of leaving, and Cao Cao initially tried to persuade him, but the effect was not ideal, and he had no choice but to let Guan Yu and Liu Bei's family members go.
Since Guan Yu left Cao Ying, Guan Yu had inquired about Liu Bei's news everywhere, and when Guan Yu learned that Liu Bei was in Yuan Shao's position, Guan Yu immediately set his sights on Yuan Shao's camp thousands of miles away.
During this journey of a thousand miles, Guan Yu passed five levels and slashed six generals, of which the martial generals were Kong Xiu, Han Fu, Meng Tan, Bian Xi, Wang Zhi, and Qin Qi. All the obstacles along the way were crushed by Guan Yu, and finally Guan Yu brought the second sister-in-law back to Liu Bei's side, and Guan Yu's loyalty has been passed down among the world since then, and he is admired.
In addition to Guan Yu's ability to walk a thousand miles and ride alone and slash six generals through five levels, Guan Yu also showed the name of The Martial Saint Guan Yu in the battlefield. In the twenty-second year of Jian'an (217), Liu Bei and Cao Cao fought over the Hanzhong region, which took two years for Liu Bei's forces to win.
Since then, Liu Bei has occupied a very reasonable geographical position, which was originally a fortunate year for Liu Bei, but in the same year, something happened that made Liu Bei sad for a lifetime - Guan Yu was killed by Sun Quan's forces.
The tipping point where Guan Yu was killed
After Liu Bei and Cao Cao's battle for Hanzhong, Cao Cao deployed his forces south to defend Sun Quan's forces in the south, and Guan Yu saw this move and decided to march north to attack Fancheng, where Cao Ren was stationed. In August of the same year, coinciding with the rainy season, the Han River soared, and such a day made Guan Yu feel the arrival of the opportunity.
It was when the Forbidden Seventh Army was flooded, Guan Yu's water army suddenly launched a strong offensive, facing the fierce landscape of Guan Yu's army, leading Cao's army's Pound And Yu Forbidden was too late to take precautions. During the chaos of the war, Guan Yu beheaded Pound, and Yu Ban was also captured by Guan Yusheng, and since then Guan Yu has been known as Zhen Huaxia.
"Flood the Seventh Army, behead Pound, and capture the forbidden" As soon as this news came out, Liu Bei's forces were all very excited, as if the great cause of the Kuang Fu Han Room was about to be completed. However, the good times did not last long, and Cao Cao learned of the news that Fancheng was in danger, and immediately sent Xu Huang to assist Cao Ren.
Originally, Guan Yu was only repulsed, and then returned to Jingzhou without any other accidents, but it was not known that Sun Quan and Cao Cao had reached a unified goal after Guan Yu left Jingzhou - Guan Yu. After Guan Yu left Jingzhou, Lü Meng secretly "crossed the river in white clothes" to take Jingzhou and cut off Guan Yu's back road.
When Guan Yu learned that Jingzhou had fallen, he immediately launched an offensive against Jingzhou, but unfortunately, there was a huge disparity between the enemy and us, and Guan Yu was defeated, and then he fled with his troops. But who knew that Lü Meng was actually in a desperate pursuit, as if he wanted to take Down Guan Yu in one fell swoop, and after many times of Lü Meng's instructions, Guan Yu was finally pulled down.
In the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an (219), in December, Guan Yu was captured in Linfeng, which was only a dozen miles away from Yizhou, and Guan Yu swore not to obey Sun Quan, so he was beheaded by Sun Quan's military generals, and his son Guan Ping also died in this siege. The history of a generation of martial saints has come to an end, which is really sighing.
Guan Yu's death seems to be a plan launched by Sun Quan unintentionally, but in fact it is not. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it is mentioned that Zhou Yu once said a sentence about the need to kill Guan Yu: try to take Shuzhong, and then Get Zhang Lude Hanzhong, and then unite with Ma Chao to occupy Xiangyang to persecute Cao Cao, so that the north can be taken step by step.
Although this statement did not explicitly say the words to kill Guan Yu, it actually indicated the purpose of Guan Yu's must beheading. As we all know, Guan Yu's loyalty to Liu Bei will not change, so if he wants to take Shuzhong, he will definitely start a war with Liu Bei and at the same time make an enemy of Guan Yu.
Guan Yu has few flaws in his life, but there is a little bit of helplessness and pity for him - too proud. Guan Yu's pride came from his power, but Guan Yu was too proud, he looked down on Zhuge Liang, who liked to strategize behind his back, and did not like to be with the veteran Huang Zhong.
Even he looked down on Sun Quan and Lu Su, which was explained in the Xiangshui demarcation, and it was also because of the contradictions in the Xiangshui demarcation that Sun Quan began to hate Guan Yu and had a murderous intention in his heart. After seeing Guan Yu's initial performance in Fancheng, Sun Quan's attitude towards Guan Yu changed strangely.
In the struggle for power, there is such a saying: if you don't get it, you will destroy it. After flooding the Seventh Army, Guan Yu's existence completely became a time bomb affecting the world, and Sun Quan asked Lü Meng to target Guan Yu's first purpose was to pocket Guan Yu, otherwise kill him.
Combining the above reasons, Sun Quan has the reason and purpose of killing Guan Yu, and a generation of martial saints can be targeted by so many heroes, and it does not lose the reputation of his martial saints, but it is a pity that Guan Yu is too proud, if not, Guan Yu's name will be more than this, and it is understandable to create glory again.
brief summary
In addition to being the representative of Loyalty and Righteousness, Guan Yu is also the representative of Wu Sheng, or the origin of the case of arrogant soldiers being defeated. The glorious process, the end of loneliness, but so, it is a pity.
