Since Sun Jian, the Sun family has seen the chaos in the world, that is, it has the ambition to dominate, and Luoyang even got the jade seal, and even more thought that heaven helped it. When Sun Ce swept away Jiangdong and was waiting to attack Cao Cao in the north and fight for world domination, he was ambushed by three political enemies, a martial art, and was affected by the tofu slag sword (according to: Jiangdong's weapon production was very inferior, first Sun Jian was chased and killed by Huaxiong, the bow was broken, and then Sun Ce's sword body fell out of his handle when he defended himself, the Father and Son of the Sun family were really unlucky to go home, I don't know if it was the quartermaster who ate the kickback), he was seriously injured, and his ambition was difficult to reward, so he naturally hoped for posterity. However, throughout the audience, although there are many talents, it is difficult to become a hegemonic weapon, so he left a last word and Sun Quan: "In front of the two armies, Qing is not as good as me; if I can protect Jiangdong, I am not as good as Qing." If the foreign affairs are not decided, you can ask Zhou Yu, and if you are not determined, you can ask Zhang Zhao. Such a meticulous and meticulous arrangement is no less than Liu Beitou's loneliness.
However, although Sun Quan was clever, he did not have the talent to pacify the world; Zhang Zhao and other people who did not need to say anything and guarded their homes and protected themselves could be seen in Kong Ming's tongue and confucianism; although the generals were deeply aware of the great righteousness and were willing to serve their lives, their martial arts tao had no superiority except for Zhou Yu, Lu Xun, Gan Ning Tai Shi Ci Lu Su. The Battle of Chibi, the East Wind was proud, and wanted to abandon Liu Bei and advance north with victory, but unexpectedly the 100,000-strong army was defeated by Zhang Liaozhi's eight hundred elite horsemen, and he himself was also chased east and west, Tai Shi Ci, Dong Xian, Chen Wu, and so on were successively killed in Hefei, and even every military operation in the following years was either a retreat without a fight, or a loss of troops, and it was difficult to cross Hefei. Therefore, the surrender faction Zhang Zhao and others reminded Sun Quan all the time: Sun Cao's two families did not fight evil, only because Zhuge Liang Liu Bei provoked from it, resulting in the two families fighting endlessly, but Liu Bei took the opportunity to occupy Jingzhou and reap the fishing profits, and the lord and prince could not fail to detect it. When Cao Liu was fighting for Hanzhong, Zhuge Liang sent a letter to Sun Quan to attack Hefei and harass Cao Cao's rear, and Zhang Zhao said the most interesting sentence (to the effect): Although Kong Ming's strategy was also the best strategy, he could take advantage of Cao Cao's army to seize Hefei in the north. A purely speculative politician's face, it is disgraceful.
Cao Cao treated Sun Quan as a general on the surface, but in his bones he regarded him as a child like Liu Chun, borrowing the name of his father and brother, never regarded Eastern Wu as the main opponent, saw Zhou Tai's death, and lamented that jiangnan was rich in places with readers, and there were actually such tiger generals, which showed that Cao Cao had never taken the military strength of Eastern Wu too seriously, especially on land. Coupled with the image of the politician who saw the wind at both ends of the Eastern Wu first rat and made the rudder, Cao Cao was even more determined to deal with Liu Bei, win over Sun Quan, and break through each policy.
The common development of the weak in the pluralistic world is the best policy, the strong do not need extra help, in Cao Cao's view, the appropriate use of Sun Quan is no different from the use of hunting eagle dogs, first hungry, and then give a piece of meat to eat, he will definitely open his mouth. Therefore, when Sun Quan's several northern attacks were fruitless, the Jingzhou dispute had not yet been completely resolved, and he was hungry and screaming, Cao Cao finally waited for the time to use him: pinch Guan Yu, send you Jingzhou, and see if you can't be hooked. So Sun Quan decided decisively: Shang. The hesitation before the battle with Chibi sentenced the two men. Thinking that before the Chibi War, Sun Quan was afraid of Cao Cao's many soldiers and hesitated, Kong Ming said you can surrender, Sun Quan asked Zhuge Liang why Liu Bei did not surrender, Kong Ming said that Liu Huang's uncle would rather die than listen to the call of the national thief, Tian Heng's men can do it, Sun Quan also felt that this was an insult, and he was angry, and he felt particularly ridiculous.
The subsequent state of affairs was unfavorable to Liu Bei, although the three counties of Jingzhou had been ceded to Eastern Wu before this, hoping to stabilize Guan Yu's rear, but the Taoyuan brothers, who were suffering with life and death by righteousness, could not have imagined that Sun Quan would turn to Cao Cao at a critical moment and stab them in the back, rather than seize the opportunity to weaken Cao Cao. At this point, Cao Cao's hegemony was truly as stable as Mount Tai, and Jiangdong had no chance to unify the world from then on, but could only sit in a corner of Jiangdong (Cao Cao wanted to destroy him, Liu Bei also hated him), and it was only a matter of time before he perished. Because he overestimated his own strength, he abandoned Liu Bei, an ally with strong offensive power that could really contain Cao Cao, and was weaker than Cao Cao, thus really needing Sun Quan's help. As for Cao Cao, Eastern Wu was only used and was not qualified to negotiate conditions at all.
After that, a farce was staged. Capturing Guan Yu was the capital of the peace talks, both to obtain land and to maintain the Sun Liu alliance, but the talents of Jiangdong were afraid that Guan Yu would retaliate if he lived, and he did not have any personality charm to make Guan Yu surrender, so he simply killed with a knife; after killing and afraid, Liu Bei retaliated, so he sent Guan Yu's head to Cao Cao, which means that the boss is the head you want, killing him and me has nothing to do, did not expect that Cao Cao and Guan Yu had an extraordinary relationship, and was a shrewd person, burying Guan Gong in a beautiful scenery. This means that guan yu fell into my hands and I would never kill him, how can you do this? So Jiangdong Mingshi stared at the big eyes and small eyes, what to do? Speaking of the workman Fan Jiang Zhang Da brought Zhang Fei's head to come, at this time Sun Quan's waist pole was hard again, Liu Bei's nest was opposed, that there was a force to retaliate, so he arranged for Fan Zhang and the two to live, and you can rest assured in my territory. But Liu Beizhen came, and soon, the front line was defeated, what to do? Zhuge Jin went to persuade you, the land returned you, the wife also returned you, Fan Jiang Zhang Da Mi Fang Fu Shiren you love to kill how to kill, but also know the great righteousness, said that the general state thieves have not been removed, we still have to form an alliance against Cao Wei, General Guan's death Wu Hou does not know, we put the overall situation first (deceive children). The result is not good, the allies have not done it, they have to turn to Cao Pi, but Cao Pi, you have to be a vassal, there is no alliance, you are not qualified. Hence the title of vassal. But Cao Pi is not stupid, your title is your business, I don't have time to help you. A farce didn't end until Lu Xun came out of the mountains. After that, Lu Xun defeated Liu Bei and repelled Cao Pi, but soberly realized that Eastern Wu did not have the strength to compete with Cao Liu for the world, and could only rely on the Yangtze River to defend itself and wait for the opportunity. So until its demise, Eastern Wu carried out the strategy of limiting the river to defend itself, sitting under the shield of Shu and watching Cao Wei and Sima Shi prepare for unification step by step.
Perhaps Guan Yu was too tough and willing to let Cao Cao go back to eat Zhuge Liang's knife, and he was also willing to hang up the seal and seal the gold to cut off six generals and Liu Bei to the end of the world, but he was unwilling to seduce Sun Quan, and even looked down on the Eastern Wu figures from his bones. Guan Yu's arrogance angered many people, all of which became the source of his death. Guan Yu, as the defender of Jingzhou, confronted the two major forces of Cao Sun in the "small three kingdoms" of Jingzhou, and finally lost and died, sun Quan also achieved a rare victory, but this victory completely buried the hope of Wu and Shu for world domination. The ridiculous thing is that Eastern Wu itself is not strong, clinging to immediate interests, wanting to dominate the world, but trying to monopolize alone, lacking sincerity to allies, and sitting on the ground with the opposite head, but the opposite head does not take him as a matter of meeting, and when it is finished, it is skipped, and it still wants to step on it. Such a personality, it is no wonder that Guan Yu looks down on him.
