This article is set in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, don't tell me that there are no Five Tiger Generals in history.
The five tiger generals in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms are: Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, Zhao Yun, and Huang Zhong, if the five tiger generals are ranked by force, it should be: Zhao Yun first, Guan Yu second, Zhang Fei third, Ma Chao fourth, Huang Zhong fifth, if any of the five tiger generals whose force is the most overestimated, it must be Huang Zhong.
There have always been different theories about the ranking of the strength of the Five Tiger Generals, and in the early "Three Kingdoms Zhiping Dialect" and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the ranking of the Five Tiger Generals is: Guan Yu is the first, Zhang Fei is the second, Ma Chao is the third, Huang Zhong is the fourth, and Zhao Yun is the fifth. This ranking has been applied to other versions of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms for a long time, such as the Jiajingben Romance of the Three Kingdoms, that is, Guan Yu first, Zhang Fei second, Ma Chao third, Huang Zhong fourth, and Zhao Yun fifth.
Five Tiger Generals
In such a ranking, Zhao Yun is at the bottom, indicating that Zhao Yun's strength is the weakest of the Five Tigers, but now the most popular Three Kingdoms author Mao Zonggang father and son in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms ranking of the Five Tigers is: Guan Yu first, Zhang Fei second, Zhao Yun third, Ma Chao fourth, Huang Zhong fifth. This statement is also popular to the present, but no matter how it is ranked, it is based on the strength and achievements of the military generals, in fact, the most controversial people in the ranking are Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong, who is the bottom of the controversy?
First, let's talk about Huang Zhong's record:
Huang Zhong first appeared in the Battle of Changsha, when Guan Yu led five hundred school knifemen to attack Changsha, Guan Yu killed Yang Ling, a lieutenant under Han Xuan of Changsha Taishou, in less than three rounds, and then Guan Yu and Huang Zhong singled out, and the two fought for a hundred rounds, regardless of victory or defeat, or Taishou Han Xuan was worried that Huang Zhong had lost something, so he beat the drum to collect the troops.
Huang Zhong
The next day, it was Guan Yu who fought Huang Zhong again, the two singled out fifty or sixty rounds, still regardless of victory or defeat, Guan Yu was ready to use the dragging knife to defeat Huang Zhong, so he pretended to be defeated and fled on horseback, Huang Zhong chased after the horse, Guan Yu backhanded a dragging knife to plan back, the result was that Huang Zhong lost his front hoof, Huang Zhong fell off the horse, Guan Yu could not bear to kill Huang Zhong, so he spared Huang Zhong, let Huang Zhong change horses and fight again.
On the third day, or Guan Yu fought Huang Zhong, the two singled out thirty rounds or did not distinguish between victory and defeat, this time it was Huang Zhong's turn to use deception, Guan Yu to chase Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong because of the grace of Guan Yu not to kill yesterday, so he shot 2 arrows, the third arrow only hit Guan Yu's armor, which was a return of Guan Yu's grace.
Therefore, Huang Zhong and Guan Yu's force is comparable, the three major wars add up to nearly two hundred rounds are not victorious or defeated, so that both people rely on the use of scheming to win, but careful analysis of the two single challenge, you will find that Huang Zhong is still a lot worse than Guan Yu, first of all, Guan Yu is the siege side, only with five hundred school knifemen dare to attack Changsha City, Guan Yu relies on force, which is similar to lü Bu's reasoning for deterring the Eighteenth Road princes in the Battle of Tiger Prison Pass, Guan Yu can only take the initiative to attack the strategy if he is strong in force.
Guan yu
In fact, although Huang Zhong and Guan Yu were on a draw, the first time was that Taishou Han Xuan was worried that Huang Zhong had lost, so he ming jin collected the troops, and Huang Zhong lost, doesn't that mean that Huang Zhong's force is inferior? Besides, Guan Yu let Huang Zhong go, it was a face-to-face let go, and Huang Zhong also reported that Guan Yu's grace of not killing was done with archery, the arrow was originally a long-range weapon, Huang Zhong could attack Guan Yu at a certain distance from Guan Yu, this is not Huang Zhong's high strength, but Huang Zhong's archery skills.
Huang Zhong's archery can not be regarded as a high strength of force, as the same force as Guan Yu, so although Huang Zhong and Guan Yu fought a draw, it does not mean that Huang Zhong and Guan Yu are the same as each other, this reason is the same as Zhang Fei's fight with Lü Bu, Zhang Fei beat Lü Bu, can we say that Zhang Fei and Lü Bu are the same force? No, so can Huang Zhong.
Although Huang Zhong fought with Guan Yu three times to achieve a draw, in fact, the three encounters were not long, it was difficult to judge the real strength, but Huang Zhong was not Guan Yu's opponent that was certain, although a hundred rounds of draw, but more than a hundred rounds Huang Zhong is likely to lose Guan Yu, because Huang Zhong's archery is very powerful, but the force is really not good.
Guan Gongzhan Huang Zhong
Look, Huang Zhong's other achievements will be known, in addition to Guan Yu, Huang Zhong also shot Deng Xian with one arrow, drew with Ling Bao in ten rounds, drew Li Yan in forty or fifty rounds, fought Han Hao and Xiahou Shang in ten rounds, and finally killed Han Hao in one round, captured Xiahou Shang in one round, drew Xiahou Yuan in 20 rounds, and killed Xiahou Yuan in another round, but that was Xiahou Yuan's plan.
Huang Zhong in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms also participated in the Battle of Yiling, killing historical sites in three rounds, defeating Pan Zhang in several rounds, and finally being ambushed and killed by an arrow from the Eastern Wu general Ma Zhong.
Judging from Huang Zhong's achievements, high is not low, and he has not fought with famous generals, the only time he fought with Xiahou Yuan for ten rounds, Huang Zhong's strength should be a little stronger than Xiahou Yuan, but it is obviously weaker than Guan Yu, so what about Huang Zhong compared to Zhao Yun?
Sanying greeted Zhao Yun
If zhao yun's record and strength are concerned, Zhao Yun should rank first among the five tiger generals, Zhao Yun's first appearance and wen ugly sixty rounds of draw, this is not Zhao Yun force can not do, but Zhao Yun only wanted to save people, did not want to fight, moreover, at that time Zhao Yun was a hairy boy, and Wen ugly was already a military general, which is equivalent to today's young man who has not been enlisted in the army, and an officer who has been a military general for many years to single out, although the draw, Zhao Yun is as glorious.
Zhao Yun stabbed Ju Yi to death in one round, Pei Yuanshao in one turn, stabbed Zhou Cang three times in several rounds, Ping Xu Chu in 30 rounds, and then retreated in the siege of Xu Chu, Yu Ban, and Li Dian, Zhao Yun also killed Gao Lan in one round, defeated Zhang Gao in 30 rounds, during the Battle of Changshanpo, Zhao Yun embraced Ah Dou, fought a million Cao army, people blocked killing, Buddha blocked the killing of Buddha, Zhao Yun was like a beast, rampage, killing a lot of siege, this kind of force did not even lose Lü Bu, Because the only general in the Three Kingdoms who could escape from the million-strong army was only Zhao Yun.
At the same time, in the Battle of Changsakapo, Zhao Yun killed more than fifty generals under Cao Cao, and it was not easy to fight five generals by one person, let alone 50, so Zhao Yun performed very prominently in the Battle of Changsaka, which was the first general of the Three Kingdoms, but Zhao Yun and Lü Bubi were still a little worse than Lü Bu, Lü Bu was recognized as the first of the Three Kingdoms, so Zhao Yun was even the second in the Three Kingdoms. If Huang Zhong and Zhao Yun compete in martial arts, of course, Zhao Yun will win completely, because Zhao Yun has many achievements and great merits, and Huang Zhong's completion is not as good.
Therefore, according to the ranking of force, the five tiger generals should be: Zhao Yun ranked first, Guan Yu ranked second, Zhang Fei ranked third, Ma Chao ranked fourth, and Huang Zhong ranked fifth.
Huang Zhong is the bottom of the five tiger generals, in addition to Guan Yu, other martial generals are Zhang Fei and Ma Chao, Zhang Fei and Lü Bu twice played a hundred and ten rounds, regardless of victory or defeat, Ma Chao and Zhang Fei can fight a draw, so Zhang Fei and Ma Chao's strength is actually similar, just because Zhang Fei has fought lü Bu twice, so Zhang Fei is second only to Guan Yu, and Ma Chao is second only to Zhang Fei, and the person who is finally at the bottom is Huang Zhong.
