"Suddenly, a young general turned out from the left side of the grass slope, and the pegasus raised his gun and took the ugly text straight." "Born eight feet long, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a wide face, and a majestic style." This is the description of Zhao Yun's appearance in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and he was majestic when he first appeared. Zhao Yun (赵云; pinyin: Zhōng z Together with Huang Zhong, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Ma Chao, he was collectively known as the "Five Tiger Generals". Liu Bei once praised him, "Zilong is full of guts." Zhao Yun rescued Liu Chan and Lady Gan at Changshanpo, and later followed Liu Bei around in the battle, capturing Yizhou, and also followed Liu Bei to Eastern Wu. It can be said that the credit is great, and it is Liu Bei's right and left arm. However, Liu Bei did not reuse Zhao Yun, and demoted Wei Yandu to be the Taishou of Hanzhong. So Zhao Yun made great achievements, why did he never get Liu Bei's reuse?
Zhao Yun was elected by the people to follow Gongsun Zhan, during which time he became acquainted with Liu Bei and helped him take charge of the cavalry. Later, Zhao Yun's brother died, and he asked Gongsun Zhan to resign. Liu Bei knew that he would not come back after he left, and he could not bear to leave. Before leaving, zhao yun and Liu Bei said goodbye that they would never do anything that violated morality. In the fifth year of Jian'an, Liu Bei defected to Yuan Shao and met Zhao Yun, who had been away for seven years in Yecheng. The two talked happily, and after that, Zhao Yun began to follow Liu Bei. Liu Bei sent Zhao Yun to secretly recruit soldiers. Zhao Yun also chose to follow Liu Bei when liu Bei's power was still very weak, and in the following decades he was loyal and established many military feats. In the eighteenth year of Jian'an, Zhao Yun captured Jiangyang and Qianwei, and the following year he joined Liu Bei in Chengdu. In the first year of Zhang Wu, Liu Bei was proclaimed emperor in Chengdu, and the history was called Shu Han. After Liu Bei established power, he could not wait to avenge his second brother Guan Yu.
He insisted on a crusade against Eastern Wu despite the persuasion of Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, and others. Liu Bei was caught in Lu Xun's plan to burn the camp in Yiling Road, and he failed miserably. Zhao Yun was ordered to go to the rescue. After this battle, the strength of the Shu army was greatly reduced. In 223 AD, Liu Bei died of illness in the White Emperor's City. Before Liu Bei died, he was isolated from Zhuge Liang and said to him, "If the heir can be assisted, it will be supplemented; If he is not talented, he can take it upon himself. Later, Liu Bei summoned Zhao Yun again. He said to Zhao Yun, "In the midst of suffering, Shuo and Qing have been in trouble, and they do not want to be separated from this place. Qing ke wants to make friends with the past, look at my son sooner or later, and don't live up to his words. Zhao Yun knelt down and said, "The subject dares not to follow the work of the dog and the horse." Liu Bei entrusted his son Liu Chan to Zhao Yun before his death. When Liu Bei was in Changshanpo, Liu Bei was separated by Cao Cao's wife, and Zhao Yun protected Lady Gan and Liu Chan and returned to Liu Bei's side. Before his death, Liu Bei handed over Jiangshan Sheji to Zhuge Liang and entrusted his son to Zhao Yun.
In Liu Beixin,he had already regarded Zhao Yun as his good friend and brother. It can be seen that Liu Bei did not reuse Zhao Yun, but attached great importance to him, so he was assured to hand over his family to him. In 229, Zhao Yun died and was posthumously honored as the "Marquis of Shunping". After hearing the news of his death, Zhuge Liang said: "Zilong died, the country lost a beam, I went to an arm!" This also reflects the importance of Zhao Yun to the Shu state from the side. Zhao Yun did not seek fame and fortune and was loyal to Liu Bei. He chose to leave when Gongsun Zhan was in the middle of the day, and later followed the powerless Liu Bei. When Liu Bei insisted on the Eastern Crusade, he stood up to dissuade him. He was loyal to Liu Bei, which was why Liu Bei was relieved of him.
