Cao Cao's person must be described in one word in everyone's mind, that is, treacherous and cunning, and Cao Cao's style of doing things can also be seen from some of the current film and television works. Yuan Shao had a fierce general named Yan Liang under his command, in order to deal with him, Cao Cao successively sent three people to fight, but in the end they were all the result of failure, and at the last moment of last resort, Cao Cao sent Guan Yu, but Xu Chu was also a well-known good man, why did Cao Cao not let him go to battle?
Therefore, Cao Cao's style of acting is really unpredictable to many people, and in this case, Cao Cao may have considered it for a long time. First of all, Cao Cao let the others play at the beginning, because these three people were all people who surrendered to him, Song Xian was originally a general under Lü Bu, and Cao Cao also happened to grasp his small past, and asked him if he dared to deal with it, and Song Xian listened to this, even if he knew that this was to die, but he could only wake up.
Sure enough, Song Xian's own feelings were also right, within a few rounds, he was defeated by Yan Liang, and then wei continued, he and Song Xian were good brothers, seeing that Song Xian was so miserable, he himself also bravely stepped forward, but it was not as long as Song Xian insisted, and it was also solved by Yan Liang. The last person to test the waters was Xu Huang, who did not follow Cao Cao at the beginning, but also surrendered later, so compared with Xu Chu, the importance of these three people in Cao Cao's mind was clear at a glance.
Another reason is because Cao Cao himself did not count in his heart, it seems that Yan Liang is quite fierce, he is afraid of sending Xu Chu directly out of the station, I am afraid that Xu Chu is not an opponent, so first let Guan Yu, who has always thought that he is famous, also try the depth first, after all, this has not been able to beat Guan Yu before even Xu Huang and Xu Chu combined, so Guan Yu at this time is also the last weapon that can be taken by Cao Cao, perhaps only he will be Yan Liang's opponent.
But these reasons are the most important, Cao Cao has a greater plan in his heart, at this time Liu Bei just temporarily surrendered to Yuan Shao's account, and Yan Liang also happened to be in Yuan Shao's camp, so at this time it was best to let Guan Yu go out and behead Yan Liang, not only could cao Cao solve an enemy general, but also let Liu Bei not have a foothold next to Yuan Shao, so this is a good strategy that can put Liu Bei to death, I have to say that Cao Cao is really a traitor.
All in all, soldiers like Xu Chu are people who are particularly cherished by Cao Cao's side, and whenever there is a war, Cao Cao will find some people who surrender to him to deal with it first, let them first look for their beloved generals to see the current situation, if it feels okay, it is also okay to let them fight. However, this can also show that Cao Cao is really a very good lord, and for his cronies, he is afraid that they will have some mistakes, and as long as they are enemies, they will use all means.
However, for Xu Chu, he was also a relatively lucky person, although Cao Cao seemed to be more hateful in the eyes of others, but in Xu Chu's heart, Cao Cao estimated that he was the lord of the sword mountain and the sea of fire, such a deep feeling was also very precious in the chaotic world at that time, just like Guan Yu's big brother, no matter how far away, always had to be found.
