Why did Lü Meng, who killed Guan Yu, bleed to death at the banquet? The black hand behind the scenes will surprise you!
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Guan Yu's name should be known to everyone. Guan Yu was very loyal and strong in martial arts, and was Liu Bei's right-hand man. Guan Yu was once captured by Cao Cao and given generous treatment conditions, Guan Yu was not moved, but after five levels and six generals returned to Liu Bei's side, Cao Cao admired Guan Yu even more and thought that he was a character. This also makes Guan Yu more attractive. However, Guan Yu was defeated by Lü Meng, and after defeating Maicheng, he was ambushed alive by the Wu general Lü Panzhang Ma Zhong, and was beheaded because Guan Yu refused to surrender. And Lü Meng, who was the great hero who defeated Guan Yu, died of unbelievable blood at the banquet.
Sun Quan ordered Lü Meng to only defeat Guan Yu and retake Jingzhou, and there was no need to kill Guan Yu completely, and Sun Quan was not at ease to send Lu Xun to personally pass on the order, lü Meng not only ignored Sun Quan's order, but also avoided Lu Xun who came to pass the order, and killed Guan Yu first. Imagine how dangerous it was for such a general not to even listen to the orders of the lord, and at that time Lü Meng was the governor of the three armies of Eastern Wu, and the military power was in his hands. When Lü Meng did not listen to the order to kill Guan Yu, Sun Quan was afraid that he wanted to get rid of Lü Meng.
After Guan Yu's death, Lü Meng sacrificed himself at the banquet with incredible bloodshed. In fact, the black hand behind the scenes is Sun Quan. Lü Meng's killing of Guan Yu was also approved by Sun Quan. After all, the revenge of humiliation must be repaid. In addition, Lü Meng knew too much inside, and Lu Meng was like Zhou Yu. After becoming the governor of the capital, he had too much power and did not obey his own orders, so he did not dare to keep it.
In the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it is written that Lü Meng's death was because "Guan Yu's soul was wronged and he died of bloodshed", which means that Guan Yu Xiansheng died Lü Meng. However, this is not enough to rely on the statement of the novel; moreover, the conclusion of the cause of a person's death by the theory of ghosts and gods is too comical and untrustworthy.
Lü Meng apparently died of illness, and the illness came very suddenly. Judging from Sun Quan's various performances after Lü Meng's illness, his claim of poisoning Lü Meng was naturally self-defeating. However, the reason for which Lü Meng died of illness is not recorded.
