Presumably, when people think of the Three Kingdoms, they will think of Guan Yu, who was a famous fierce general of the Three Kingdoms at that time and a martial saint of China. In the future generations has a very high reputation, his reputation is known to everyone, no one knows, even ordinary people know Guan Public Relations Master, followed by a proverb about him: "Guan Gong in front of the door to play a big knife - do not measure up to their own strength." And there is a more famous historical story about him - Guan Yu cut yanliang.
This Yan Liang was originally a Hebei general at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, with relatively small measurement and a bad temper, but he also became a general because of his direct coming and going, and he became a general, although Xiao Yong was good at war, he could not be alone. The most famous battle he participated in was the Battle of Guandu, when Yuan Shao ordered him to attack Baima, but unfortunately he was defeated by Cao Cao's strategy of "attacking the west with sound from the east and attacking the west with light troops" of the strategists around him, and Yan Liang was also beheaded by Guan Yu and brought back to discuss the merits and rewards, which is the famous story of Guan Yu beheading Yan Liang.
And Guan Yu also took the first rank of general in the Wanma Army, setting a legendary record, and his fame rose and his prestige spread far and wide. But is this really the case in history? Did Guan Yu really cut off Yan Liang's first rank? Maybe in the past, everyone only speculated based on historical records, and there was no conclusive evidence, but after the people discovered Yan Liang's tomb a thousand years later, they overturned all the previous stories, in fact, Guan Yu did not cut off Yan Liang's head at all.
Because in the early 70s of the last century, the local residents of Yan Liang's tomb unfortunately destroyed his tomb when repairing water conservancy projects, so they invited experts to carry out protective excavations, only to open it and found that Yan Liang's body was well preserved and had not been stripped of his head at all, so it can be proved that the story about the beheading of Yan Liang's head is actually false, or perhaps Guan Yu cut off the heads of other soldiers to pretend to be Yan Liang to bring back to ask for merit and reward.
