Literature/History of the Four Seasons
The Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms Pei notes the Biography of Cao Concealment: "Lü Bu among men, red rabbits in horses." ”
The literal meaning of this sentence can be simply understood as Lü Bu is a very good talent, and can even be said to be a "peerless master" in every world. It is true that Lü Bu is indeed strong in martial arts, but he is also a person who is full of stains and betrays his lord and abandons his righteousness. Lü Bu is also by no means like some film and television dramas describe, what is the "first fierce general of the Three Kingdoms", the extraordinary character holding the Fang Tian painting sword, these are fictional plots, he is at best a "first unjust man at the end of the Han Dynasty".
Stills: Lü Bu
Cao Cao, a generation of heroes, recognizes heroes and heroes, and cherishes talents, and for this kind of "three surname family slaves", Cao Cao does not like to be with him at all, so it can be boiled down to that although Lü Bu is brave and good at war, and even has the courage of ten thousand men, his character is very poor, so Cao Cao is not unable to control Lü Bu, but scorns him.
1. Lü Bu, He Xuren
Speaking of the heroes of the Three Kingdoms, I have to talk about one person, that is, "Flying General" Lü Bu. Lü Bu (Chinese: Lü Bu), a native of Jiuyuan County, Wuyuan County, was one of the heroes of the late Eastern Han Dynasty and was known for his bravery.
Although Lü Bu has a different position in everyone's mind, in my opinion, Lü Bu, the god of war, also has remarkable places. It was only limited to the reasons of the times, as well as the historical environment at that time, which led to the god of war "swaying with the wind". He was not only the righteous son of the Han thief Dong Zhuo, but also a person who had once been attached to Yuan Shao and Liu Bei and threw himself everywhere, and was nicknamed "Three Family Slaves".
Stills: Dong Zhuo
Lü Bu and Ma Zhong Chitu are examples of Lü Bu's bravery and good war, but this Figure of the Three Kingdoms has always had a bad reputation and is not favored by the various leaders at that time, including Cao Cao. Especially in the eyes of Cao Cao, who has experienced the Yanzhou events and has repeatedly heard of Lü Bu's bad deeds, Lü Bu is not irreplaceable.
Second, a generation of tyrants Cao Cao will not look at Lü Bu squarely
The Three Kingdoms period was full of twists and turns, but even so, no matter how high the value of personal force, it was impossible to use it as a bodyguard, not to mention that Lü Bu at that time was already middle-aged (199 AD was 10 years after Lü Bu's peak period), in this case, it is difficult to guarantee that Lü Bu can have the force output of ten years ago. Therefore, a person who is full of stains and whose strength has declined is certainly no better than Cao Cao's account of Dianwei, Xu Chu and other rookie warriors.
Map of the situation in the three countries
Besides, Cao Cao was a famous hero of the Three Kingdoms period. Although this person is a treacherous person, his heroic arrogance is not inferior to that of other figures of his contemporaries, and even more so. And Cao Cao was particularly generous in employing people. Cao Cao cherishes talent, loves talent, and meritocracy, but he values a person's credit and disposition more. Lü Bu served the Han courtiers today, tomorrow he turned against him, today he was attached to Yuan Shao and Liu Bei, and tomorrow he stole the city, for such a capricious person, Cao Cao did not want to be with him at all, and did not despise to work with him. Although Cao Cao knew that Lü Bu was a heroic man, in terms of moral character, Cao Cao valued it more.
Cao Cao: Cloth, wolf ambition, it is difficult to raise for a long time, and non-Qing Mo can not investigate his feelings. Xun You: Lü Bu is brave and unscrupulous. Bu Xiao was fierce, and Yuan Shu, if he crossed Huai and Si Jian, Hao Jie would respond.
Stills: Cao Cao
Looking through the history books, you will find that Lü Bu did not surrender to Cao Cao at a suitable time, but kept stumbling until the mountains and rivers were exhausted before he came to rush to surrender, which was the most important point that Lü Bu was different from Zhang Xiu. For Cao Cao, Lü Bu had no "political value" at all, so how could he be treated?
Third, meritocracy, but also to have both moral integrity and ability
The Cao Wei clique was of epoch-making significance during the Three Kingdoms period.
There were many world-class rulers under Cao Cao's account, mao jie, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, and so on, and wu had eight tiger riders, five sons of liang generals, dianwei, Xu Chu and other generals. These people were all close friends with Cao Cao's monarchs and subjects who were born and died, compared to Lü Bu, who had no character, no vision, no eyes, and no physical strength, why was he put in the eyes of Cao Cao, who had experienced ten years of battlefield experience and established a firm foothold in Yanzhou in the Central Plains? The answer, of course, is no.

Therefore, Lü Bu, who was downstairs in the White Gate in 199 AD, had already become a "hob meat", and even had no value in being a political decoration "Anle Gong".
History is like this, if some steps are wrong, they may slide into a place of doom. If you bear the name of unkindness and injustice, even if the martial arts are refined, there will be no place to stand. The life of the flying general Lü Bu was very short, if at the beginning he could recognize the situation and stand in line, then he would not have a martial art in the air, and there would definitely be better Wenzhi martial arts.
Lament Lü Bu, pity Lü Bu, sigh Lü Bu.
