In 208, Lü Meng was on the front line of the siege of Nan County, and the Yizhou general Xi Su led the troops to suddenly come and fall, Lü Meng was overjoyed, and excitedly said: "The general has worked hard all the way, I will definitely give you a proper platoon!" At this time, Lü Meng's direct leader was Zhou Yu, and he told Zhou Yu the news of the attack and surrender. Zhou Yu felt that the soldiers who had just surrendered had not yet figured out the details, and now that it was wartime, sun quan should be played to hand over the surrender to Lü Meng's management, so that it would be safer.
Lü Meng believed: "The reason for attacking Su Wading through the mountains and rivers to come to his aid was to admire the holy virtues, thinking that he could be used here, and if he took away his subordinates now and left him with nothing, it would inevitably make him chill." In the future, I am afraid that no one will be willing to surrender again. The best way to deal with it was to let Raid Su continue to take his original soldiers, and then give him some additional troops as a reward for him. Sun Quan felt that Lü Meng was right, and still handed over the soldiers brought by The Raider to the leader of the Raider.
It can be seen from this incident that Lu Meng's vision is very wide. Zhou Yu meant to divide the soldiers brought by the raid to him, which was a very beneficial thing for him. But Lü Meng chose to give up his self-interest, considering the world's people's views on Eastern Wu, and he cared more about the interests of the country, which was a very valuable spirit.
At that time, the garrison of Lü Meng's troops was close to the garrisons of Cheng Dang, Song Ding, and Xu Gu. After the death of the three generals, the children of the family were still young and unable to manage their original army. Sun Quan believed that Lü Mengzhi's army was superior and merged their army into Lü Meng's army. Lü Meng received Sun Quan's order, and the letter resolutely refused to accept it. Lü Meng wrote to Sun Quan three times in a row, stating the merits of the three men to the country. Now that they are dead, they cannot cancel their army and ignore their young children.
Sun Quan saw that Lü Meng was earnest and adopted his advice. Lü Meng personally selected teachers for the children of the three generals and tutored them in their studies. Lu Meng did this very perfectly. He once again gave up the opportunity to expand his own troops and chose to think about others. In this way, Lü Meng also let the descendants of the three generals know that the country has not forgotten them. In Lü Meng, there is a valuable quality of "abandoning the small self and achieving the big self".
Lu Su once commented on Lü Meng: "I originally thought that my brother only had a martial strategy, but today, he is so knowledgeable that he is no longer Wuxia Amon!" "What is said here is that Lü Meng has both Wen Tao and Wu Strategy. Not only that, but from the above deeds, it can be seen that Lu Meng also has noble qualities. Later generations often resented Lü Meng for "backstabbing" Guan Yu, but from Lü Meng's point of view, for the sake of the national interest, his approach was also reasonable and should not be infamous because of it. #头条中国史 #
