Hua Rong said, Guan Yu's green dragon long sword stood on his back, and although Cao Cao on the opposite side was slightly embarrassed, he still refused to show his timidity easily.
Where did Cao Cao come from? Liu Bei set up three passes for him and spared Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei, and Cao Cao's men were killed with three hundred people. When guan Yu met again, whether Cao Cao was dead or alive today depended on God's wishes or not.
At this time, Cao Cao's heart had been hanging to his throat, and the Guan Gong's big knife in front of him was split, and he could only explain it here.
Cao Cao, who had calculated everything, was thinking about how to escape the disaster, but he didn't want Guan Yu's big knife to move at all.
Guan Yuyi thin cloud sky, let Cao Cao leave, this matter made people stunned, but only one person had already expected the ending, that is, Zhuge Liang, for this matter, Zhuge Liang even said: Fight or not fight is actually the same.
So, what's going on here? It's no exaggeration to say that the truth can subvert your perceptions!
1. Guan Yuyi Bo Yuntian released Cao Cao
Long before the Battle of Chibi began, Zhuge Liang predicted that Cao's army would be defeated, and even concluded that Huarong Dao was the only way for Cao Cao to escape.
According to the progression of the story, Zhuge Liang is indeed a god, and he arranges for Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, and Guan Yu to ambush Cao Cao in Chibi to Huarong Dao.
I have to say that Cao Cao's people are really too "unlucky".
After the Battle of Chibi, before they could rest for a moment, they encountered Zhao Yun and killed them with a group of people.
Later, after escaping Zhao Yun, he sat down and killed a horse, and each of them was ready to feast, but Zhang Fei jumped out again.
Because of the sudden change, Cao Jun at this time was exhausted, and everyone was insisting on relying on the willpower to live, so when Guan Yu appeared, these people felt scalp tingling, and only felt that they could not escape death.
Of course, not only did Cao Jun think so, but Shu Jun also thought that he would be able to take Cao Cao's head this time, but Guan Yu's approach was so surprising that he directly let Cao Cao leave.
In a strict sense, this kind of behavior can be regarded as the private release of the enemy army, and the other party is still the leader of the enemy army, and it is completely possible to deal with Guan Yu by military law.
But when the news reached the military camp, Liu Bei punished Guan Yu neither strictly.
This makes everyone curious about the reason behind it, does Liu Bei want to protect Guan Yu, or guan Yu's ability is insufficient, even if he fights to the death, he can't kill Cao Cao?
Guan Yu let Cao Cao go, and the result of Cao Cao's failure to kill Hua Rongdao was actually not unexpected, in a way, this was a picture that Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei must have been able to see and want to see.
Imagine how powerful a person who can stand up to Huarong Dao can survive the Battle of Chibi and escape the pursuit of Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei, even if he does not have any strong skills, his willpower is beyond imagination.
The ancients often said that "the mourning soldiers will win", when this group of people think of Huarong Dao to be able to survive, the desire to survive will greatly stimulate their desire to overcome.
What's more, Xu Huang, Zhang Guo, and other people who stayed by Cao Cao's side were not vegetarians, and Cao Cao himself also had weapons that he was good at, and such an army was fighting the enemy with a mortal mentality.
On the other hand, Guan Yu only brought 500 people, and the two sides were evenly matched to some extent.
If there was a life-and-death struggle, it was really difficult to say who would die in the end, and Cao Cao might not be able to kill Hua Rongdao.
This point of doubt has been solved, then, why did Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei want Guan Yu to let Zhuge Liang go?
This may sound strange, but on closer examination, it is not only reasonable, but also likely a conspiracy that has been laid out long ago.
Second, the scheme of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang
Zhuge Liang set up three levels in a row on Cao Cao's way to escape, which did not seem like he wanted Cao Cao's life.
If he really went to Cao Cao's head, he could have planted a lot of traps in one place and sent a large number of people and horses to wait for the rabbit.
In that case, even if Cao Cao's army had amazing combat effectiveness, it could not escape the theorem that "two fists are difficult to defeat and four legs".
This shows that Zhuge Liang was not prepared to take Cao Cao's life from the very beginning, so did Liu Bei think the same way? Liu Bei really didn't want Cao Cao's life like Zhuge Liang.
As the saying goes, if Cao Cao's life was taken on the Huarong Road, it would leave Wei Guoqun leaderless.
Wei Guo would indeed panic for a while without Cao Cao, but whether it was a silent or comeback, this was not a good thing for Liu Bei.
If the State of Wei were to fall silent, it would mean that there would no longer be a three-legged stand in the future, but a tense situation of "one mountain does not tolerate two tigers".
At this time, Liu Bei only had more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and his territory was only a piece of Jiangxia, how to compare with Jiangdong, where Zhou Yu and Sun Quan were located.
If it were not for Cao Cao's excessive power, Zhou Yu and Sun Quan would not have looked down on Liu Bei's acre and three-point field at all, and they would not have wanted to cooperate with him.
Liu Bei naturally knew what Zhou Yu and Sun Quan were thinking, so he had to raise his vigilance, and no one could guarantee that after Cao Cao, Zhou Yu and Sun Quan would not want to get rid of themselves.
He also needed to make deals with Zhou Yu Sun Quan and others, and could not make enemies with them. From this point of view, Liu Bei also agreed with Zhuge Liang's statement that "Cao Cao's life should not be extinguished."
After the Battle of Chibi, Cao Cao's vitality was greatly damaged, and it was difficult to regain the peak without a decade of time, which could completely make the Shu Kingdom look new
。 Liu Bei didn't want to cause trouble for himself, and besides, he also wanted to help his "second brother" wash away some of his love debts through such an arrangement.
Third, the ending has long been designed
When Guan Yu was captured by Cao Cao, the latter admired Guan Yu's ability and not only treated Guan Yu with courtesy, but also gave Guan Yu his favorite red rabbit BMW.
All this was done to be able to leave Guan Yu behind, but Guan Yu was in Cao Ying's heart in Han, and after receiving Liu Bei's news, he would leave Cao Ying after five levels and six passes
。
Although he returned to the side of the eldest brother, Guan Yu always felt indebted to Cao Cao in his heart.
Liu Bei naturally also knew what Guan Yu had in mind, so he also laid down this bureau to let Guan Yu pay off the debt he owed, and Guan Yu at that time had always been unconvinced by Zhuge Liang, and this bureau was also laid down in order to make him obedient in the future, so Liu Bei also specially made him swear to take Cao Cao's first rank and return.
It is conceivable that Guan Yu not only failed to fulfill his promise, but also let the enemy go.
He was ashamed in the face of Liu Bei, and he threw himself at Zhuge Liang, which made it easier for Liu Bei to manage.
The world only thinks that Guan Yuyi is thin and cloudy, Liu Bei understands the great righteousness, and Zhuge Liang is like a god, but in fact it is a conspiracy that has long been calculated.
It was precisely in this way that Zhuge Liang would be sure that no matter whether Guan Yu fought Cao Cao to the death on huarong Road, Cao Cao could escape.
