There are 4 great generals in history who are purely fictional, each of which is famous, you may know them all?
"If you are a general, the country will be supplemented; if you are a general, the country will be strong, and if you are a general, the country will be weak." - "Sun Tzu's Art of War"
If the most indispensable thing about idol dramas is love and love, then the most indispensable thing in costume historical dramas is probably the imperial concubines and military generals. As a person who loved to watch historical dramas since I was a child, I especially loved the battlefield where I was fighting, and whenever I saw it, my blood boiled, and I hated to spur the horse to experience a fight and conquest, but the scene could only appear in dreams.
Thinking about it, it is really on the battlefield of cold weapon battle, and the average person is afraid that he will not live more than half an episode.
Therefore, I especially admire those famous generals who can make a difference in the battlefield in the past and the present, Le Yi, Bai Qi, Li Mu, Lian Po, Wang Qi, Han Xin, Wei Qing, Huo Zhiyi, Tan Daoji, Li Jing, Yang Ye... There are too many to list, and they will belong to the bing family, of course, there can be no shortage of "bing sheng" Sun Wu and his successor Sun Zhen.
Those who can lead the army are called generals, and those who can lead the generals are called handsome. I don't know if you found it, there are often fictional celebrities in costume dramas, but there are rarely fictional celebrities. Why? Quite simply, fictitious a famous general, just need to render how high his strength value, how strong the battle is, these ordinary people can also blow a few games, but to create a commander who dominates the overall situation, you can't read a few military books!
If you don't understand the military book, how can you fabricate the layout of the plot and the offensive and defensive strategies out of thin air? So you go to see all kinds of interpretations, all kinds of operas, costume dramas, fictional generals getting together, and there are fictional strategies, but fictional ones can be good at war, almost nothing.
Will be the manager, the handsome is also the manager, the former's gameplay is obviously not as advanced as the latter, so the fiction is much simpler, today's 4 great generals, you may have thought that they were real historical figures, they are famous, I don't know how many you have heard, believed in how many?
Sui and Tang dynasty series of novels, fictional celebrities sweep a dustpan, the first is Li Yuanba. Influenced by the acting TV series, the 4 concubines of Li Yuan, who had always been thought to be Tang Gaozu, were sorted like this:
Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, Li Yuanji, Li Yuanba.
Only later did I find out that it should be like this:
Li Jiancheng, Li Shimin, Li Xuanba, Li Yuanji.
That's right, Li Yuanba, this "Sui and Tang First Fierce Man (General)", suppressed the remaining 17 good men, and steadily picked the Sui and Tang Dynasty force value of the first iron hammer, so that the gods and ghosts of the tiger and tiger shengwei were all shocked to be able to retreat from the ten thousand armies with the strength of one person, which was purely fictional, probably only borrowed Li Xuanba's name.
The real Li Xuanba, is Li Yuan's concubine, Li Shimin's half-brother, died in 614 AD, when the Sui Dynasty had not yet fallen and the Tang Dynasty had not yet been established, he should have been a weak teenager, only 15 years old when he died, what lifted the golden lion to the temple, sealed the "fierce brave general", sat down in the smoke cloud cover with 800 pounds of iron hammers to sweep across Yuwen Chengdu, Wu Tianxi, Pei Yuanqing and others, invincible, are false.
As for why Li Xuanba became "Li Yuanba", it may be because "Speaking of Tang" was written in the Qing Dynasty, and it is necessary to avoid the name of the Kangxi Emperor Xuanye.
Speaking of Li Yuanba, we have to mention Yuwen Chengdu. The name Yuwen Chengdu is not known how many times he has seen it in the Sui and Tang Dynasty TV series, and in his memory, he was also arranged to be Li Shimin's love enemy. And Yuwen Chengdu, although he is not invincible to his rival Li Yuanba in opera novels and film and television interpretations, he also has extraordinary combat effectiveness, after all, he is a warrior who has been praised by the Sui Emperor as "the first brave and invincible in the world".
The fictional Yuwen Chengdu is the son of Yu Wenhua, the favorite minister of the Sui Dynasty, and the most famous thing about Yu Culture and the most famous thing is that in 618 AD, he launched the Jiangdu Rebellion to kill the Sui Emperor and establish himself as emperor of the Xu Kingdom, he did not have such a powerful son as Yuwen Chengdu, only Yuwen Chengji and Yuwen Chengzhi 2 sons, and the people who fictionalized Yuwen Chengdu obviously did not take the name according to the characters in his family.
Yuwen Chengdu ranked second in the sui and Tang dynasties, and the force retreated Xiong Kuohai, Wu Yunzhao, and Wu Tianxi, second only to Li Yuanba, this ranking is the most tormented by folk creators, and there is no historical evidence.
According to the "Complete Biography of the Tang Dynasty", the first good han Li Yuanba, the second good Han Yuwen Chengdu, and the seventh good han are also quite famous——
Luo Cheng, Cousin of Qin Qiong, son of Luo Yi, this is another so-called famous general who is favored by film and television dramas because of the legend of opera derived from novels. It is rumored that Luo Cheng was handsome in appearance and proficient in marksmanship, sat down on the Lightning White Dragon Colt, and returned to Tang after the Wagang army dispersed, but because of Li Jiancheng's calculations, he died young, leaving only a young son Luo Tong (Luo Tong is also fictional of course).
In fact, Luo Yi was indeed a general in the Sui and Tang dynasties, he originally served the Sui Dynasty, Li Yuan claimed that the emperor submitted to the Tang Dynasty after 3 years, but he was killed because of rebellion in the year when Li Shimin ascended the throne (627), his son did have it, but the history books do not record specific deeds, saying that Luo Cheng was Luo Yi's son.
Luo Cheng's prototype should be Luo Shixin, a fierce general in the late Sui and early Tang dynasties, Luo Shixin died in the Battle of Luoshui in 622, killed by Liu Heimin, only 22 years old, but he was a native of Jinan, Shandong, Luo Yi was a native of Jingyang, Shaanxi, and the eight rods could not be beaten.
Probably the stories of the Sui and Tang dynasties are too easy to compile, during the Ming and Qing dynasties, this type of novel emerged in an endless stream, "Talking about the Later Tang Dynasty", "Saying the Three Biographies of the Tang Dynasty", "Mixed Tang Later Biography"... These novels also mention Xue Dingshan. Legend has it that Xue Dingshan was the son of the famous Tang Dynasty general Xue Rengui, who inherited his father's excellent genes and pacified Xiliang for the Tang Dynasty, but finally died inexplicably at the hands of Wu Zetian (a black empress).
In fact, Xue Dingshan, a minor general, was based on Xue Ne, the eldest son of xue Rengui, the son of the famous general Xue Rengui. The Old Book of Tang records:
"Xue Ne, Wanquan Ren of Daizhou, Ren Guizi, the Great General of Zuo Wuwei... Transferred to the governor of the prefecture, Shi Shi, and also the inspector of the Left Guard General. For a long time, he has been in charge of the border town, and he has accumulated military achievements. ”
In the history of Xue Ne, there were not many harsh words, the great defeat of Tubo, the town guarded Xiliang, and the battle achievements were outstanding, according to the "New Book of Tang", he was a general who was not afraid of the enemy, and was good at using troops. Moreover, Xue Ne did not die because of Wu Zetian, he lived to the death of Tang Xuanzong at the age of 72 after he ascended the throne.
It can be found that there were many fictional celebrities in the Sui and Tang dynasties, and they were deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, well-known, and they were taken as true if they were not careful...
