Guan Yu had beheaded eighteen generals in his life, and had always been bright and upright, so why did he feel remorse when he killed him?
Introduction: Guan Yu can be said to be one of the most popular warriors in the Three Kingdoms period, when he was young, he began to follow Liu Bei to fight the Yellow Turban Thieves, and then he went around in Youzhou to suppress bandits and won high praise from the common people. During the Battle of Hu prison pass, he stepped forward and beheaded Hua Xiong, during the Battle of Guandu, he beheaded Yuan Shao's general Yan Liangwen ugly, and when he defended Jingzhou, he not only annihilated Cao Cao's reinforcements, but also killed the general Pound. He killed a total of eighteen famous generals in his lifetime, also known as the Harvester. Although Guan Yu's life was bright and upright, he felt remorse when he killed this person? Who is this man and what is going on? Let's move on.
His name was Xun Zheng and he was a military general under Yuan Shu. The matter also has to start with Liu Guanzhang's three brothers taking power in Xuzhou, when Xuzhou Mutaoqian was old, liu Bei was able to take over the whole of Xuzhou with the support of the major families in Xuzhou. Not long after, Liu Bei received orders from Emperor Xian of Han to attack Yuan Shu in Huainan, and many people persuaded that this was Cao Cao's strategy to drive away tigers and swallow wolves, and we could borrow grain and grass to refuse to send troops. Although Liu Bei knew that this was Cao Cao's plan, the people who hindered the Han Dynasty's ministers still took Guan Yu on a campaign and left Zhang Fei in Xuzhou.
On the way to the march, Liu Bei always thought about how to save his soldiers and horses without angering Yuan Shu, who learned of Liu Bei's army and sent the general Ji Ling to lead 100,000 soldiers and horses to resist the enemy. The two armies soon met on the battlefield, but because neither of them knew the reality of the other, they could only face each other all the time. Liu Bei did not have a very good method, and could only order his soldiers to build a high platform and a watchtower, intending to take a defensive position. This situation made Ji Ling wonder, you attacked me first but I couldn't hold out, what does this mean? So the grumpy Ji Ling sent his soldiers to Liu Bei's front one after another to invite him to fight, and Liu Bei seemed to be unable to hear it and remained indifferent.
The successive invitations and scolding battles of Ji Ling's army made the soldiers very unhappy, and one by one they asked Liu Bei for battle. Liu Bei knew that he could not suppress the desire of these soldiers to make meritorious achievements, so he sent Guan Yu to fight and told him that he only needed to do a show, never hurt the other party's life, and then write a letter to Ji Ling to tell the reason after we released our sincerity, and then the two families could strike and make peace. Guan Yu obeyed the order and raised his sword to the horse, and it was Ji Ling's number one general Xun Zheng who faced him.
Xun Zheng had long heard of Guan Yu's reputation, but he had never seen the Buddha, and xun Zheng was very happy to know that the person in front of him was Guan Yu, because he thought that he was brave and martial, as long as he killed Guan Yu, he could become famous in the world, so he shot and killed. The moment the two fought, Guan Yu knew that Xun Zheng was just a third-rate martial artist, and he could easily kill him, but he could only release water many times for the sake of great cause. However, Xun Zheng thought that Guan Yu was just a vain name, and he taunted hot and cold while fighting, hoping to arouse Guan Yu's anger and reveal flaws. Guan Yu, who had always cherished his reputation, could bear such an insult and kill Xun Zheng with all his strength.
Conclusion: Ji Ling saw that Xun Zheng immediately sent troops to attack after his death, and the two sides changed from temptation to tug-of-war, and Liu Bei's army was also deeply mired in the quagmire of war. At this time, Lü Bu, who was in the rear, knew the news that Liu Bei was taking care of himself, and took advantage of xuzhou's weak defenses to sneak in and take over Xuzhou. The three brothers worked hard for more than ten years to win the foundation of Xuzhou, because Guan Yu's anger made all their efforts go to waste, and the three of them once again lived a life under the fence, and every time Guan Yu thought of killing Xun Zheng, he regretted it very much.
