A Three Kingdoms, a classic for hundreds of years, street talk and elegance are appreciated. At the same time, many proverbs were derived, such as "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives", "Liu Bei throws children and buys people's hearts", "Old Master Guan opens his eyes and wants to kill", "Zhang Fei eats bean sprouts, small dishes", "Zhou Yu plans to settle the world, loses his wife and folds the army", etc., and there is also a sentence "Xu Shu entered the Cao camp and did not say a word".
Xu Shu who Xu people, Gao people also. Xu Shu recommended himself to Liu Bei in the name of Shan Fu, and became famous in the battle of Bowangpo, and Guan Zhang and Zhao Yun were all obeyed. When Cao Cao heard this, he obtained accurate information through investigation and tracking, and robbed Xu Shu's wife to Cao Ying to lure Xu Shu down. As the eldest filial son, Xu Shu had no choice but to bid farewell to Uncle Liu and recommend Zhuge Kongming for him.
The public's evaluation of Xu Shu was "in Cao Ying's heart in Han", and he did not offer a plan for Cao Cao in his life. On the one hand, this shows that Xu Shu's feelings for Liu Bei's camp and his nostalgia for the old master. On the other hand, the reason why Cao Cao wants to raise such an idler is Cao Mengde's cleverness, if you don't give me ideas, then you can't give advice to my opponents; Besides, Xu Shu is a well-known adviser in the world, even if he doesn't say a word, it is also a pretense for me Cao Cao to love talent, cherish talent, and recruit talent.
Xu Shu has been in Cao Ying for many years, is it really not used by Cao Cao? It doesn't seem to be. Xu Shu was once ordered by Cao Cao to go to Fancheng to persuade Liu Bei to surrender, and Xu Shu took the opportunity to report to the old master; And on the eve of the Battle of Chibi, Xu Shu broke Pang Tong's serial plan and took the initiative to ask Cao Cao for orders and was able to leave the Cao camp. Xu Shu went like a yellow crane, and there was no trace, which was a pity. We can't help but ask why Xu Shu's old wife has passed away and has no worries, why he didn't return to Liu Bei's side. There must be a reason for this.
Some people have proposed the saying of "Wolong Phoenix Young Lin", Wolong is Kong Ming, Phoenix is Pang Tong, and Young Lin is Xu Shu. These three people are originally from one school, and their mentors are also Pang Degong. The three of them are all the highest-ranking strategists of the Three Kingdoms, and they are all good at using fire, and burning Bowang, burning Xinye, burning Chibi, and burning the upper valley are indeed in the same lineage.
Some people also analyzed that the reason why Xu Shu did not return to the Shu Han camp in the end was because he cared about his own reputation, which I don't see completely. It's not that Xu Shu doesn't want to go back, but he can't go back. That's because Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong have already gathered in Liu Bei's team. "The good scenery in front of me is not good, Cui Hao's inscription poem is on top." In layman's terms, it is "more chickens do not lay eggs, and many people make trouble".
Xu Shu is far-sighted, and his level does not dare to say that it is stronger than Kong Ming, but it must be stronger than Pang Tong. One mountain is difficult to tolerate two tigers, let alone three tigers! The fratricidal killing of the brothers Sun Bin and Pang Juanshi in the former dynasty is a lesson from the past. Therefore, Pang Tong will receive the box lunch early in Luofengpo. This old Pang family's IQ is worrying!
Let's go back and look at Xu Shu's recommendation of Kong Ming for Liu Bei. Uncle Liu reluctantly sent one ride after another, hoping that Xu Shu would stay. Xu Shu did not raise this topic at the first time, but walked out for a long time and turned his horse's head to reply to Liu Bei. It shows that Xu Shu has always had the intention of returning, and has also carried out considerable ideological struggle. But if Zhuge Liang really assisted Liu Bei, it would be a different situation.
Of course, of course. My analysis is only based on Luo Guanzhong's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", in fact, everything is hypothetical. Because, according to real historical records, Xu Shu has a different version than the interpretation. First, Xu Shu's mother was not robbed by Cao Cao, but was exiled to Cao Ying when he retreated with Liu Bei's army, and Xu Shu took the initiative to go to Cao Ying to find his mother; Second, Xu Shu has always recommended Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong since he followed Liu Bei, and he is very modest, stating that he is inferior to Wolong Phoenix; Third, of course, it is impossible for Xu Shu to enter the Cao camp without saying a word. Emperor Cao Pi of Wei usurped power, and Xu Shuguan to the right middle general and Yushi Zhongcheng could be described as a high position and had the right to speak.
For Xu Shu's analysis, if it is a speech version, it is Luo Guanzhong's subjective portrayal, which is elevated and dramatic. If it is a historical version, then I think it is human nature, and there is nothing wrong with it.
