"The forest is dark and the grass is frightening, and the general leads the bow at night." - Lu Lun (Tang Dynasty) · "He Zhang Shu Shoots The Second Song".
In ancient China, whether it was the division of the Central Plains or the northwestern Koubian, it often caused a bloody war, and the general who could unite the army to fight was naturally a sharp weapon that the princes of all sides had to fight for, and a general who could defend his family and defend the country could not only make meritorious achievements, but also be famous in history and be respected by future generations.
In the long history of ancient China, there have been many heroic deeds of heroes and good men. The more in the chaotic world, the more many famous generals have become famous, and the so-called "heroes in the chaotic world" are precisely because of the emergence of these heroes, which has also promoted the wheel of China's historical progress to a certain extent, and has been passed down through the ages. It has become a heroic story passed down by word of mouth by the people of all dynasties, even if they have disappeared and died for hundreds of years, but their deeds have been left forever.
However, there are some heroic deeds that have been added to the fire of future generations, and gradually far from the truth of the matter, for example, some famous generals we are familiar with are actually not this person, most of them were born in the novel literature adapted from history by their predecessors, and then after the recitation of posterity, they gradually gained a foothold in people's hearts, do you know who they are

One
After the Yang family general - Yang Zongbao
The first is yang Zongbao, the famous shogun. During the Song Dynasty, when the Western Xia was frequently attacked, the Heroic Yang Family would be famous all over the world, and the story of the Yang Family General would also be passed on to future generations.
According to records, the yang family's father, son, and grandson all defended the country against the Liao, and in the second generation, the seven sons of the Yang family all held important positions, leading the army to fight, called "the seven generals of the Yang family", and then no one died in the battle of the seven people in the great war, only The fifth lang Yang Yanpu and the sixth lang Yang Yanzhao survived and returned, but they were also seriously injured.
Yang Menhu's generals Yang Ye, Yang Yanzhao, Yang Wenguang, and others were widely recited in later generations because of their loyalty to the country and their outstanding military achievements. However, Yang Zongbao, the son of Yang Yanzhao, was a figure who only appeared widely in various literary and artistic works, and there is no record of this person in the historical data.
In the novel "Biography of the Yang Family General" and "The Evolution of Yang Family House", Yang Zongbao is the grandson of Yang Ye, the son of Yang Yanzhao and the lord of Cheshire, and is the third generation of the Yang family general and the only male grandson. Because he came from a family of generals, he was deeply taught by his elders since he was a child, proficient in the art of war and strong in martial arts, determined to become a brave and strategic general.
When he was very young, he followed his father on the battlefield, and when he grew up, he was ordered to attack Mu Kezhai, and then married Mu Guiying, the daughter of the lord of Mukezhai Village, and later the Song Emperor worshiped him as a general and his wife Mu Guiying to go out to Daliao, breaking the Heavenly Gate Array, after the death of his father Yang Yanzhao, he was ordered to conquer Western Xia, Zhongji was trapped in jinshan and died by arrow, only 24 years old.
Yang Zongbao made great contributions to the Great Song Dynasty for many years, and his merits were outstanding, but he was already sacrificed at a young age, and then there were twelve female generals of Yangmen who went out on the expedition.
Although the character of Yang Zongbao is not as widely known as his father,000, the story about him has been circulating in China for a long time.
However, according to the records in the "History of Song", the Yang family was three generations of generals, but only Yang Ye's son Yang Yanzhao, and Yang Yanzhao's son Yang Wenguang, no one else has ever recorded, the same Yang Zongbao's wife Mu Guiying is also a fiction, in fact, history does not have these two people.
The story of the Loyal And Yong Yang family has infected countless people, and the story of Yang Zongbao's conquest of Western Xia should actually be mostly taken from Yang Wenguang's life experience, but after later investigation, it was found that Yang Ye had a granddaughter named Yang Zongbao, and now it seems that the adaptation of the novel is also traceable.
Two
Sui and Tang Dynasty Seventh Jero Cheng
Luo Cheng, nicknamed "Cold Face Cold Gun Qiao Luo Cheng", was famous in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and then successfully entered people's eyes.
Luo Cheng is a fictional character in novels such as "Sui and Tang Dynasty", "Speaking of Tang", "Biography of Xing Tang" and so on, in the novel, Luo Cheng is the only son of Luo Yi, the King of Yan, the cousin of Qin Qiong and Qin Shubao, who has excellent marksmanship and strong martial arts, and then gathered with Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin and others in Wagang Village, and then in a big war, he cracked Yang Lin's one-word long snake array, and the urgent need of Wagang Village, so he became famous in a war.
After the dissolution of Wagangzhai, Luo Cheng turned to Li Shimin and became a meritorious hero of the founding of the country, the Duke of Baiyue, and played an important role in the DPRK.
During the zhenguan yuan, Luo Cheng led an army against the Tang dynasty and fled to wushi in Gansu after failing, and was eventually killed by his subordinates. It is also said that Luo Cheng was in the process of fighting with Liu Heimin's army in the process of fighting with Liu Heimin's army, because the crown prince Li Jiancheng and the Qi king Li Yuanji were jealous of Luo Chengzhi's courage, so they were framed by the design of the two people, and were tricked into shooting arrows at the silt river.
As a fictional character, Luo Cheng can be remembered by future generations because in the novel he is heroic and loyal. In the book, he has the famous "Twelve Horses of Yanyun" under his command, which is a very fierce army.
And Luo Cheng's crotch was a lightning white dragon colt, holding a five-hooked god flying gun, ranking seventh of the thirteen masters in the Sui and Tang "thirteen masters, four fierce and four absolute", and his courage and wisdom were comparable to Zhao Yun, and he could resist a million male masters. After Tang Taizong ascended to the throne, he entered Fengluo to become the Kaifu Yi Tongsan Division, with a status comparable to that of the Three Dukes, and finally died on the battlefield and made many people sigh.
According to the literature, Luo Cheng's origin should be from a sui and Tang general Luo Shixin, who was originally a general of the Sui Dynasty, and later betrayed Wang Shichong and switched to Li Shimin, and in 622, Luo Shixin was captured by Liu Heimin in the Battle of Luoshui and eventually killed. There are many similarities between Luo Shixin and the fictional Luo Cheng in the novel, so many people think that Luo Shixin is the historical prototype of Luo Cheng.

The white-robed major general was a pretty boy, and the silver halberd flashed the enemy cold
Xue Dingshan is a character in the novel, he was born in the Tang Dynasty Wu Zetian period, his father is the tang dynasty famous general Xue Rengui, the ancestors are mostly officials as generals, but in Xue Rengui's youth, the family fell in the middle, life is poor can only farm for a living, under the encouragement of his wife Xue Rengui decided to join the army to build merit, Xue Dingshan was born at this time.
It was not until Xue Dingshan grew up that his father returned as a commander, so his father was not close, but he had great ambitions to fight on the battlefield like his father Xue Rengui. At that time, Xue Rengui was fighting Su Baotong in Western Liang, and was mistakenly injured by a dart in the trap, and Tang Gaozong saw that this trip was unfavorable in the middle of the dynasty, so he recruited the world's capable people to hang up the Marshal of the Second Road and go out to Attack Xiliang.
Xue Dingshan worshiped Wang Ao Laozu as a teacher on Yunmeng Mountain, learning the way of the general, wang Ao Laozu learned about it, and ordered Xue Dingshan to go down the mountain to save his father, so Xue Dingshan went down the mountain to ask for help, and won the Seal of Zhengxi Shuai with an invincible momentum, which is the story of Xue Dingshan's marshal to save his father.
After that, Xue Dingshan embarked on the road of meritorious service, and even his wife was also acquainted with him during the conquest, married the female general Fan Lihua as his wife, and then there was the story of the three hughes of pear blossoms, this marriage was repeatedly mixed, love and hate were intertwined, so it was widely circulated.
Later, Xue Dingshan was appreciated by Wu Zetian, who ordered Xue Dingshan to go out on a campaign against the Turks and serve as an envoy of Long's Right Jiedushi. He defeated Tubo in succession at Wujieyi and Chang castle, gained countless victories, and achieved fame.

It can be said that Xue Dingshan is a character born for the story, and all the things in his life are written by the author to make him more readable, but in fact he does not exist.
Historically, Xue Rengui's son was named Xue Ne. When he was serving as the commander of Lantian County, he dared to refuse the unjust invitations of other officials. After the Turks came to visit, Wu Zetian was transferred to the front line after cooling down because of other affairs, so Xue Ne made a military achievement. Later, he was dismissed from his post because of the defeat of the army, and after being used again, he defeated Tubo in a row and won countless victories. During his lifetime, Xue Ne had been guarding Xiliang and died at the age of seventy-two.
epilogue
It is true that some famous generals do not really exist, but their deeds of defending the country and the spirit of loyalty and righteousness in the world have nourished countless legends, which have gradually penetrated the hearts of the people, thus inspiring and inspiring future generations, and becoming heroes who are difficult to distinguish between true and false, and only have my heart.
But it can be seen that I must not be too superstitious about novels and film and television works, in which even if the plot is taken from the real historical bridge, but it has been adapted without our knowledge, and some of them are far from the real history, if we are too convinced of it, we may laugh at it.
So when I read these works, I refer to real historical materials, so that I can get rid of its dross and take its essence.
