The three fierce generals that Liu Bei missed in his life could all be matched by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and two of them could help defend Jingzhou

Although the big-eared Liu Bei received such powerful five tiger generals as Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and Huang Zhong, as well as Wei Yan, in fact, in Liu Bei's life, he and the other three fierce generals were lost, and the three fierce generals that Liu Bei missed in his life could all match Guan Yu Zhang Fei.

The first one: Tai Shi Ci

Long before Tao Qiansan made Xuzhou, when Liu Bei had not yet officially become a true prince, Liu Bei had met Tai Shi Ci, and at that time, Tai Shi Ci had not yet surrendered to the Lord, nor was he far from seeing Sun Ce, that is to say, Liu Bei had seen Tai Shi Ci before Sun Ce, at that time, Kong Rong in Beihai was surrounded by the Yellow Turban Army, Kong Rong was kind to Tai Shi Ci's old mother, and Tai Shi Ci, in order to repay Kong Rong, single-handedly sent a letter to Liu Bei for Kong Rong, asking Liu Bei to save the Siege of Beihai.

It can be said that in this process, Liu Bei could personally witness Tai Shi Ci's bravery and fierceness, however, Liu Bei ignored Tai Shi Ci, a fierce general, and if Liu Bei had treated Tai Shi Ci with the attitude of treating Zhao Yun at that time, he would definitely not let Tai Shi Ci vote for someone else.

If Tai Shi Ci could be taken under his account, in the future, in addition to Guan Yu, Tai Shi Ci could also support Guan Yu very well, so that Guan Yu would not have a general who understood water warfare and land warfare as a helper.

The second: literary employment

As we all know, there was a loyal and righteous general under Liu Biao's account, who was not only strong in martial arts, but also his loyalty and righteousness could be expressed in the sun and the moon. When the old lord Liu Biao died, this person was loyal to Liu Chun, and after Liu Chun surrendered, this person had to submit to Cao Cao. This loyal general was later Cao Wei's Jiangxia Taishou (江夏太守) and Marquis Wen of Xinye (新野侯文聘).

Cao Cao sent Cao Ren and others to attack Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang burned Xinye, Cao Ren was defeated, he escaped from death, Cao Cao was furious, he personally led a large army to conquest, Liu Bei abandoned Fancheng, Ben Xiangyang, accompanied by 100,000 refugees, arrived in Xiangyang, Liu Chun did not open the city gate, Wei Yan stepped forward, cut the gatekeeper to invite Liu Bei to enter the city, Liu Bei did not enter, the general Wen Hired to fight Wei Yan, the two fought for a long time, and finally, Wei Yan fled and defected to Changsha Taishou Han Xuan.

Wen Ping was a general under Liu Biao's account. Liu Bei also guarded Xinye tun for 7 years, during which Liu Bei had long seen Liu Biao's mediocrity, but even so, Liu Bei did not have a good relationship with Liu Biao's generals and plotted great things together. So much so that after Liu Chun surrendered, Wen Ping had to submit to Cao Cao.

Perhaps Wen Ping was inferior to Wei Yan in terms of commanding troops, achievements, and fame, and he could not lose wei Yan in terms of pure force alone. Wei Yan wanted to show his performance in front of Liu Bei at that time to show his sincerity in defecting, and he estimated that Liu Bei would take over Jingzhou, even if he could not defeat Wen Ping and others, could Liu Bei's subordinate Guan Zhang Zhaoyun not help him, and as a result, he miscalculated and fell into a passive situation.

In other words, if Liu Bei had taken the initiative to hire Wen Ping at that time, it was entirely possible that he would have persuaded him to join the Shu Han clique. However, in order to take care of face, Liu Bei missed the fierce general of Wen Ping in vain.

After Wen Ping returned to Cao Cao, he befriended Guan Yu several times, which made Guan Yu also have a headache.

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Wei Shu XVIII, Biography of Wen Ping": He also attacked Yu Yuan, which was heavier than Hanjin, and burned his ship in Jingcheng. If Liu Bei had spent more time on Wen Ping, would there have been any trouble for Guan Yu later, and perhaps Guan Yu would have had a good helper who knew water warfare and land warfare to guard Jingzhou, so that the strength of Jingzhou would be stronger, and it would not be Lü Meng's sneak attack, and the slag would be gone.

The third: Zhang Ren

The third talent that Liu Bei missed was the Sichuan Shu general Zhang Ren, a native of Shu County. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, He was a subordinate of Liu Zhang, the mu of Yizhou. In the eighteenth year of Jian'an (213), during Liu Bei's attack on Liu Zhang, Zhang Ren led an army to resist and was defeated and killed.

Speaking of Zhang Ren, the one person I have to say is Pang Tong. At that time, Pang Tong followed Liu Bei to attack Xichuan, but after Liu Bei and Liu Zhang's confrontation, Pang Tong was ambushed by Zhang Ren and shot Pang Tong to death on the spot. And Liu Bei? Immediately lost Pang Tong, the top military division.

Zhang Ren was born in a low-ranking family, rarely brave and martial, and also practiced, and was recruited by the governor of Yizhou to engage in it. At the end of the seventeenth year of Jian'an (212), Liu Bei attacked Liu Zhang in order to capture Yizhou and occupied Fu County. At the beginning of the eighteenth year of Jian'an (213), Liu Zhang sent Liu Xuan, Ling Bao, Zhang Ren, Deng Xian, Wu Yi and others to lead troops to resist Liu Bei, but they were defeated one by one, and Zhang Ren and others retreated to Mianzhu.

Later, although Liu Bei captured Zhang Ren, Liu Bei did not want to avenge Pang Tong. Liu Bei actually wanted to take down Zhang Ren, after all, he could design to get rid of Pang Tong, and such a fierce general was by no means an idle person. "Yibu Qi Old Miscellaneous": Bird Ren. The Lord heard of ren's loyalty and courage, and ordered the army to surrender. However, Zhang Ren did not give Liu Bei the opportunity to surrender, and directly refused Liu Bei's request to surrender in person. Later, Zhang Ren decisively sacrificed his precious life.

Seeing that all the armies were defeated, Liu Zhang appointed Li Yan as his protector and unified command of Zhang Ren and other armies guarding Mianzhu. However, Li Yan took the initiative to surrender to Liu Bei, and Mianzhu fell. Zhang Ren and others retreated again, and together with Liu Xun, the son of Liu Zhang, defended Luocheng. Liu Bei marched to besiege Luocheng, zhang ren led his troops out of the city, fought at Yanqiao, and was defeated and captured. Liu Bei admired Zhang Ren's loyalty and wanted to persuade Zhang Ren to surrender, but was sharply refused. Liu Bei then killed Zhang Ren and sighed at him. If Liu Bei could be as sincere as Sangu Maolu was then, Corporal Li Xian, in time, he might be able to move a famous Sichuan and Shu general like Zhang Ren, and if he could take Zhang Ren under the account, he would have one more fierce general available in the future.

Therefore, Tai Shi Ci, Wen Ping and Zhang Ren are the three fierce generals that Liu Bei missed in his life, and these three generals can all match Guan Yu Zhang Fei.
