After the outbreak of Dong Zhuo's rebellion, the Eighteenth Route princes gathered their righteousness and fought against it, first with Yu "Wenjiu and Huaxiong", and then with Liu Guanzhang's "Three Yings Fighting Lü Bu", which was the first small climax after the opening of the novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and it was also an allusion that many people relished. Among them, Wen Jiu's crisp and neat slashing of Huaxiong makes people have to sigh that Guan Yu is worthy of the existence of becoming a martial saint in the future, after all, Huaxiong is not an inconspicuous small role, he not only killed Yu Shi and Pan Feng in a second, but even Sun Jian, a fierce tiger in Jiangdong, is not his opponent. Therefore, according to this matter, as well as the future Guan Yu's beheading of Yan Liang and Xue Wen ugly, some people believe that if only talking about the speech, Guan Yu may be qualified to replace Lü Bu as the first fierce general.
Guan Yu's martial arts were stronger or weaker than Lü Bu's? If the "Three Ying Battle Lü Bu", which was slightly later than Wen Jiu's chopping Huaxiong, was played by Guan Yu first, what would be the result? Next, let's analyze it together.
When the three Heroes fought Lü Bu, the first to shoot in the novel was Zhang Fei - the two fought for more than fifty years, and there was no victory or defeat, and then Guan Yu joined the battle front and attacked Lü Bu with Zhang Fei, and also made no progress, and finally Liu Bei joined, becoming the last straw that overwhelmed the camel, causing Lü Bu to abandon the battle. However, Lü Bu still did not suffer any damage, and he retreated completely. In this way, it seemed as if Lü Bu could defeat any of the three of them. However, later Zhang Fei once again singled out with Lü Bu, and after more than a hundred battles, he still did not fall behind, so it can be seen that he should not be weaker than Lü Bu, that is to say, Zhang Fei's martial arts should be three Ying battle Lü Bu, and no one died under Fang Tian's painting.
So, what if it wasn't Zhang Fei who shot first, but Guan Yu? Does he have the ability to stand up to Lü Bu on his own, fight on a par, and then wait for Zhang Fei to go out into battle and attack Lü Bu with him? If it was he who shot first, would Liu Bei still need to go out?
First of all, we all know that Guan Yu uses the Eighty-two-pound Green Dragon Crescent Knife as a weapon, which is tall and mighty, but his actions are not flexible, which is doomed, and his fighting style is wide open, mainly to break the enemy with force, and does not rely too much on skill. Lü Bu's use of the Fang Tian Painting Blade as a weapon was the most difficult weapon to control, and his dependence on strength and skill was very high. That is to say, when Guan Yu faced other famous players, the method of suppressing people with strength and momentum, so as to make the other party timid, and finally win, should be ineffective for Lü Bu. And Lü Bu, in the case that his strength was not weaker than his, and his martial arts were stronger, he could easily find his flaws and thus gain the upper hand.
That is to say, like Zhang Fei described in the novel, alone to catch Lü Bu, fight more than fifty times, and save the momentum of the combined forces of the princes, Guan Yu is about to do it, if Zhang Fei joins the battle front, it is very likely that he will not attack Lü Bu with Guan Yu, but save Guan Yu and return to the camp. In this case, for Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, they were very critical, and once Liu Bei, whose strength value was completely at the same level as theirs, rushed to join them, he was likely to be injured by mistake.
From this, it is not difficult for us to analyze that, theoretically, if the three Heroes fight Lü Bu, the first to appear is not Zhang Fei, but Guan Yu, it is likely that there will be no results of equal strength, nor will it end with Lü Bu taking the initiative to abandon the field, but it is likely to become Lü Bu's show alone. And if this happens, not only will this allusion be rewritten, but the result of the princes' crusade against Dong Zhuo will also be rewritten.
Of course, Xiaobian's analysis is only based on theory, not to deny Guan Yu's martial arts, let alone demean, but his fighting style is different from Zhang Fei, Lü Bu and others, and the situation he is good at dealing with is also different. For example, when Lü Bu took Xuzhou from Zhang Fei's hands, he did not dare to force himself in the face of the drunken Zhang Fei, and in exchange for guan Yu, who was full of momentum, he would certainly not give up such a wonderful opportunity.
