At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, many princes chose to stand on their own mountains and seize the opportunity to seize the world. And many military generals and strategists have also been born to follow the Ming Lord and establish their own great achievements. Zhao Yun is a controversial figure in the Three Kingdoms, and many people think that Zhao Yun's force value in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is exaggerated, so is Zhao Yun really so powerful in the history?
Although the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a canonical history, it is very vague in the character record, and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is too unrealistic, so we can only find the real Zhao Yun from other works, and this book is the "Biography of Yun Bei" written by Pei Song, a famous historian of the Southern Dynasty and Song Dynasty.
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhao Yun is the most brilliant place for him to save the young lord seven in and seven out, and it is also the reason why many people like Zhao Yun. According to the records of the Zhengshi and the "Biography of Yun Bei", Zhao Yun's deeds of seven in and seven out are true, but they are not as exaggerated as in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. But it is understandable for the author to carry out such artistic processing, after all, it is necessary to enrich Zhao Yun's character image.
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhao Yun's deeds of serving the Shu state in his 70s were also fabricated by the author, and there is no such paragraph in the main history. Through "The Biography of Yun Bei", we can know whether the deeds of Zhao Yun in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms are true or false, so that people have deep doubts about whether Zhao Yun's image has been exaggerated. So in the end, Zhao Yun in history, is he really the champion of the three armies?
Although we can't find the answer in the history books, we can find a record of Zhao Yun from the tombstones that exist in Korea. This tombstone was written by Emperor Gaozong, who conquered Korea at that time, and the praise on this is Su Dingfang, and the inscription compares Su Dingfang with the six famous generals of ancient times, including Zhao Yun. The reliance on Zhao Yun is "one body is bold, brave to crown the three armies", which shows that Zhao Yun in real history is still very powerful.
