In romance of the Three Kingdoms, Xu Chan is a super fierce general in Cao Wei's camp, while Huang Zhong's is also a super fierce general, but his martial arts rank last among the five tiger generals of the Shu Han Dynasty.
In Xu Chu's combat career, he had directly fought with four of the Five Tigers of the Shu Han Dynasty, but he had never fought with Huang Zhong. So how to define the level of force value between Xu Chu and Huang Zhong? Then a specific analysis has to be carried out.
Xu Chu and Huang Zhong once had a common rival, Guan Yu. As we all know, the confrontation between Xu Chu and Guan Yu was in the Battle of Tushan in the 25th episode of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Guan Yu insisted on staying in PiCheng, and was lured out of the city by Xiahou Huan, Guan Yu pursued Xiahou Huan for more than twenty miles, felt that the situation was not right, and was about to return to the army, but was intercepted by Xu Chu and Xu Huang's troops to return to the road.
"Guan Gong struggled to kill the two"
。
The confrontation between Huang Zhong and Guan Yu was in the Battle of Changsha City in the 53rd episode of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. After the Battle of Chibi, Liu Bei expanded his territory and took the three cities of Lingling, Guiyang, and Wuling in the south. Guan Yu asked for orders to lead five hundred school swordsmen to capture Changsha City, and Huang Zhong, the fierce general of Changsha, was ordered to fight, and the two fought against each other on the battlefield.
"Fight for more than a hundred, regardless of victory or defeat"
。 Guan Yu sighed after returning to the camp:
"Veteran Huang Zhong, worthy of the name: Dou Li lily, no flaws."
At the Battle of Tushan, Guan Yu repelled the combined forces of Xu Chu and Xu Huang with one enemy and two, while in the Battle of Changsha City, Guan Yu Baiyu was unable to defeat Huang Zhong, and the two sides were on an equal footing. Can this show that Huang Zhong's martial arts are far superior to Xu Chu's? Of course not so.
In fact, the value of the force of the three fierce generals is not set in stone, but has its growth period, peak period, recession period and trough. Let's take Guan Yu as an example, from Taoyuan Jieyi to Xuzhou, this is Guan Yu's growth period, during this time, Guan Yu beheaded Huaxiong, attacked Lü Bu, killed Guan Hai, Ping Jiling, there were several battles with a large number of rounds; and from the Battle of Tushan to the Single Ride of a Thousand Miles, it was Guan Yu's peak period, during this time Guan Yu retired Xu Chu, Xu Huang, Beheading Yan Liang, Xue Wen Ugly, Passing the Pass, Killing Cai Yang, Killing the Four Directions, Green Dragon Sword Rise, Decisive Victory Is Often Between Numbers; After the Battle of Chibi, Guan Yu entered a period of decline The Northern Expedition to Xiangfan was the trough of Guan Yu's martial arts value.
The Battle of Tushan, in which Xu Chu and Xu Huang fought Guan Yu, was on the eve of Guan Yu's peak. Guan Yu was trapped out of the city, before there was Xiahou Huan blockade, and then Xu Chu and Xu Huang blocked, the situation at that time was extremely critical, and the huge pressure he faced stimulated Guan Yu's potential. Guan Yu rarely played with life once,"
Fight to kill the two
”。 When Cao Cao's soldiers surrounded Pi, they consulted with Cheng Yu on a countermeasure: luring Guan Gong out of the city to fight, and then cheating defeat, luring Guan Yu into an ambush circle, and then intercepting his way back with elite soldiers.
"And then say yes"
As you can notice, yes"
That's okay
", explaining that the basic principle of this battle is to fight for Guan Yu, not to kill him, otherwise it should be"
Kill it too
”。 Therefore, in the Battle of Tushan, Cao Cao arranged for Xu Chu and Xu Huang to intercept Guan Yu because only one of them was sent, and Guan Yu could not be stopped. And Guan Yu"
Struggling
"To play for their lives, Xu Chu and Xu Huang can only choose to retreat."
Then at the time of the Battle of Changsha City, Guan Yu's strength value had actually begun to decline, and there was a very important factor - the speed of the Red Rabbit Horse was also much lower than before. Everyone remembers that Guan Yu Baima Po cut off his face and had
"Red Rabbit Horse Fast"
The description of Guan Yu Yanjindu chased after wen ugly, there are also
"Guan Gongma Fast"
Guan Yu rode alone for thousands of miles, and fought with the defender Meng Tan when passing through Luoyang Pass,"
There is no battle
", Meng Tan cheated and walked away,
"I don't want to close the stallion fast"
, was chased and killed by Guan Yu.
Guan Yu Changsha city battled Huang Zhong, the first battle of more than a hundred he did not distinguish between victory and defeat; the next day, Huang Zhong was defeated and left, several times falsely dragged the bow string, Guan Yu dodged. If you put it in the Baima Po period, Guan Yu would have been there a long time ago."
Red Rabbit Horse Fast
"Catch up with Huang Zhong, and then"
A knife in the back of the head
"Get rid of him. However, Guan Yu repeatedly failed to catch up with Huang Zhong, and was stopped by Huang Zhong and stood by the suspension bridge to calmly take the arrow, and an arrow hit the helmet. This shows that the Red Rabbit Horse has lost its speed advantage, and Huang Zhong is fighting Guan Yu in a period of decline.
Because Xu Chu was young, his strength value was maintained quite well. The Battle of Weiqiao, able to fight a fierce battle of hundreds of miles and Ma Chao is on a par with each other. And Ma Chao had repelled Cao Jun's general Zhang Gao in twenty rounds.
In the 70th episode of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhang Gao led his troops to attack Ye Mengguan, and Huang Zhong asked for orders to go to meet Zhang Gao.
"Two horses intersect, about twenty battles"
Yan Yan sneaked in from the rear, attacking back and forth, and Zhang Hao was defeated. In the confrontation with Huang Zhong, Zhang Gao was not inferior due to poor force, but because of the enemy's front and rear attacks.
From this point of view, in the Battle of Hanzhong, if Xu Chu had the opportunity to fight against Huang Zhong, Xu Chu had a certain advantage. Of course, Huang Zhong is indeed old,"
Veterans don't use their muscles and bones
", strength, speed, reaction and stability are not as good as in the youth and strong period, if Huang Zhong is in the young adult era, his strength value will inevitably be able to comprehensively crush Xu Chu.
