At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, foreign relatives monopolized power, eunuchs bingzheng, political corruption, natural disasters continued, on this day, Hedong Xieliang (Shanxi Yuncheng) local power and bullying, finally led to the dissatisfaction of a local big Han, killing bullies to remove a harm for the local people.
In order to get rid of the pursuit of the bully forces, the offending Han changed the original character, Changsheng, to Yunchang, and thus fled his hometown to Zhuo County, Youzhou (Zhuozhou City, Hebei Province), and became acquainted with Liu Bei, and Zhang Fei formed a brother with him, making a great wish, hoping to achieve a career.
When Liu Bei served as the Minister of Pingyuan, he appointed him and Zhang Fei as simas of other departments, and divided them into divisions. When he accompanied Liu Bei to the event, he and Zhang Fei stood by Liu Bei's side to protect Liu Bei, and then followed Liu Bei to fight against the enemy, and he was never afraid to avoid hardships.
In the fifth year of The Han Dynasty (200 AD), Cao Cao invaded Xuzhou, and Liu Bei defected to Yuan Shao. He was captured by Cao Cao and appointed as a partial general, Cao Cao treated him with courtesy and rewarded him well, in order to repay Cao Cao's kindness, when Yuan Shao sent the general Yan Liang to attack Cao Cao's Taishou Liu Yan who remained in Dong Commandery on White Horse, he and the crowd conspired to kill the enemy general Yan Liang and behead him, and none of Yuan Shao's generals could stop him and help Cao Cao break the Siege of Baima, so he was also made the Marquis of Hanshouting by Emperor Xian of Han.
In the face of Cao Cao's growing love, he did not move, and Liu Bei, who was bent on finding his own kindness, after making meritorious contributions to Cao Cao, did his best to seal Cao Cao's reward, left a letter of resignation, and said that Cao Cao, who was suspicious of life, admired him and said: "The prince does not forget his roots, and the righteous soldiers in the world also tell his subordinates to give up their plans to hunt him down.
He abandoned Cao Cao, the most powerful, and continued to follow Liu Bei, who did not even have a foothold at that time, and continued to help Liu Bei conquer the world, after years of unremitting efforts, Liu Bei took Jingzhou and Yizhou successively after the Battle of Chibi, and became the king of Hanzhong, worshiping him as a former general.
In order to alleviate Liu Bei's pressure in Shuzhong and repay Liu Bei, in the same year that Liu Bei ascended to the throne of Hanzhong, he left Taishou MiFang in Nan Commandery to guard Jiangling, and the general Fu Shiren stationed in Public Security, and he led a large army to attack Lü Chang of Xiangyang and Cao Ren of Fancheng, launching the Battle of Xiangfan, and after Cao Cao withdrew from the Hanzhong battlefield, he immediately sent a 30,000-strong army led by Yu Bandu to rescue Fancheng. However, he flooded the Seventh Army, forced him to surrender to the forbidden and captured Pound. In October of the same year, Lu Hunmin Sun Wolf and many mountain thieves south of Xuchang were inspired by Guan Yu and supported the party, which once threatened Huaxia. Cao Cao wanted to move the capital to avoid his attack.
Throughout the Xiangfan Campaign, he used the land of the three counties of Jingzhou to face the enemies of Cao Wei and Eastern Wu, notably Cao Ren, Xu Huang, Yu Ban, Pang De, Man Yu, Lü Meng, Lu Xun, and others, notoriously Zhao Yu and Lü Chang, as well as the Wu generals Zhu Ran and Pan Zhang, who participated in the attack on Jingzhou, and the famous Cao Wei general Zhang Liao, who went to the rescue, and Cao Wei's leader Cao Cao and Eastern Wu's leader Sun Quan made war command arrangements behind them, but there was no assistance, support, and assistance from the Shu Han side, and Liu Feng and Meng Da within shu Han surrounded Fancheng. When Xiangyang was victorious, he refused to send troops to help, and his subordinates Mi Fang and ShiRen rebelled and surrendered, resulting in the defeat of Maicheng and the capture of Eastern Wu.
As the saying goes, not afraid of god-like opponents, afraid of pig-like teammates, if there is no internal surrender in the Xiangfan Campaign, even if it cannot defeat Cao Wei to welcome back the Han Xiandi, it will not fail so badly in the end, and the history of "carelessly losing Jingzhou" to evaluate him, in fact, if zhenshou Jingzhou does not go to the Northern Expedition, or retreats early, Eastern Wu and Cao Wei will not have the opportunity to take Jingzhou.
History has not if, the Shu Han clique lost the three counties of Jingzhou, the losses were extremely heavy, Guan Yu was also defeated and killed, shu Han has since lost the big base of the Northern Expedition in the east, making the Longzhong pair a lie, secondly, Meng Da defected to Wei, resulting in the loss of Shangyong and other places, and the Xiangfan Campaign also became an important turning point in the situation of the Three Kingdoms. This battle also led to the alliance between Shu Han and Eastern Wu for more than ten years was broken, turning against each other, and finally the Battle of Yiling.
