In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, many people's talents are not the same as in the main history, and they cannot be completely matched, such as Lu Su in Eastern Wu. In the rendition, Lu Su is a typical old and good man, Liu Bei can develop and grow, in fact, Lu Su's contribution is not small, and even some people think that Lu Su's contribution to Shu Han seems to be greater than that of Eastern Wu, and it feels that Lu Su basically did not contribute to Eastern Wu, except for the main battle in the Battle of Chibi, it seems that Lu Su did not do anything meaningful at other times. In fact, this is entirely because Yanyi has written Lu Su astray, and Lu Su in the zhengshi is a figure who can be compared to Zhuge Liang, and he is the most underrated strategist in the Three Kingdoms!
Lu Su, who is "bad" in the rendition
Why everyone says that Lu Su in the speech is relatively bad, in fact, there are three main reasons for this.
First, Lu Su did not have any great merits
Lu Su in the rendition basically had no merit, and the most outstanding credit was that he firmly supported Sun Quan in resisting Cao Cao during the Battle of Chibi. At that time, Cao Cao led hundreds of thousands of troops to the south, ready to wipe out the south in one fell swoop. And Cao Cao's early stage was also very smooth, he sent troops soon after Liu Biao of Jingzhou died, and then Liu Biao's younger son succeeded to the throne, and his younger son had no talent, did not have the heart to resist, directly surrendered to Cao Cao, so that Cao Cao could not blow the strength to take Jingzhou, in vain to get the land of a state, plus more than 100,000 troops.
At that time, the people of Eastern Wu were very afraid when they heard that Cao Cao had taken Jingzhou, and many of them suggested direct surrender, and even Zhang Zhao, the orphan minister left by Sun Ce to Sun Quan, advised Sun Quan to vote. At this time, Lu Su firmly stood up against surrender, and advised Sun Quan: These ministers can surrender, but you Sun Quan can't, because they surrender, and their status and treatment are guaranteed, and once you Sun Quan surrenders, there will be no such treatment as it is now!
Sun Quan thought as if this was the case, so he changed his concept and began to make plans to actively resist Cao Cao. It can be said that in resisting Cao Cao, Lu Su still made a great contribution, and it is precisely because he considered the problem from the perspective of Sun Quan, so Sun Quan would use him very much later.
Second, Lu Su rescued Zhuge Liang many times
During the Battle of Chibi, Zhou Yu had already discovered Zhuge Liang's talents, believing that Zhuge Liang would be a major threat to Eastern Wu and preparing to eliminate them quickly. However, with the help of Lu Su, Zhuge Liang escaped from the danger several times, and from the perspective of Eastern Wu, Lu Su's behavior did not feel particularly clean, and there was a suspicion of funding the enemy.
Third, Lu Su sent Jingzhou
The reason why Liu Bei was able to start a family was actually because he occupied Jingzhou, but in fact, at the beginning, he only occupied the four counties of Jingnan. There are a total of seven counties in Jingzhou, Liu Bei occupies four, it seems that he has gained great benefits, and then the actual situation is not so optimistic, Liu Bei's four counties are relatively remote, there is no development potential. In the end, he borrowed Nan County from Sun Quan, and only then did he successfully obtain the outlet of the Yangtze River and have a passage into Yizhou.
It can be said that if Sun Quan had not lent Nan County to Liu Bei, he would not have had the opportunity to enter Yizhou. Behind Liu Bei's borrowing of Jingzhou, in fact, there has always been a figure of Lu Su, who has been persuading Sun Quan to unite with Liu Bei, giving Liu Bei great benefits.
On the whole, Lu Su in the interpretation is indeed a bit "eating inside and outside", eating Sun Quan's meal, but it seems that he often helps Liu Bei, and even Jingzhou has lent liu Bei, and has not taken it back until his death. It is precisely because of Lu Su's poor performance in the rendition that many people think that he is very poor and is not a first-class strategist at all. But in fact, this is entirely because Yanyi weakened Lu Su, Lu Su in the history is a very powerful strategist, his strategic ability is comparable to Zhuge Liang, it can be said that he is the most strategic person in Eastern Wu!
Lu Su in the history of zhengshi
Zhuge Liang's most famous strategy is Longzhong right, when Liu Beisan took care of Maolu, he formulated a strategic plan for Liu Bei to occupy Jingzhou, seize Yizhou, and divide the world into three parts, which made everyone admire. In fact, Zhuge Liang had Longzhong's right, Lu Su also had a tatami strategy, and he also formulated a plan for Sun Quan to seek the world.
Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms: "Emperor Xigao's district wanted to honor the righteous emperor and did not gain it, and Xiang Yu was harmed." Cao Cao now, Xiang Yu in the past, why should the general be Huan Wenhu? The Han Dynasty could not be revived, and Cao Cao could not be eliminated. For the sake of the general, only Dingzu Jiangdong can watch the world's provocations. The scale is not to be blamed. What is the north of the sincere multi-tasking also. Because of its many tasks, he eliminated Huang Zu, entered Liu Biao, and even the Yangtze River was extreme, according to it, and then built an emperor to try to the world, and this high emperor's karma was also. ”
In Lu Su's policy on the bed, he first directly told Sun Quan that the Han Dynasty could not be revived, and Cao Cao could not defeat it at once, and the most suitable strategy for Sun Quan was actually to dingzu Jiangdong, take Jingzhou, and all according to the Yangtze River, so that no matter how the world changed, sun Quan's side would not lose anyway. After that, Sun Quan could establish a state and become an emperor, plotting against the world and achieving the same imperial cause as Han Gaozu. Lu Su's words were simply enlightening to Sun Quan, at that time, although the Eastern Wu side was quite powerful, Sun Quan did not think of establishing the country as emperor and plotting the world, and it was Lu Su's words that made Sun Quan open his vision and began to think about competing for the world.
In addition to the strategy on the bed, Lu Su was also very good at his performance against Cao Cao. The Battle of Chibi did not need to be more, on the road to unite with Liu Bei, although Eastern Wu was pitted, Lu Su still suppressed the anger of the Eastern Wu people and urged Sun Quan to unite with Liu Bei and jointly oppose Cao Cao. In fact, this is lu su's cleverness, because Cao Cao is the most powerful of the three forces, Sun Quan only unites with Liu Bei, it is possible to defeat Cao Cao and reach the top, once he falls out with Liu Bei, then Sun Quan can only be a ten thousand years old. It can be said that in the overall situation, Lu Su is the first person in Eastern Wu who deserves it!
After Lu Su's death, Eastern Wu no longer had the great talent with strategic vision, and soon sneaked in to occupy Jingzhou, and completely fell out with Liu Bei. On the surface, Sun Quan took Jingzhou, achieved the goal of taking all the Yangtze River, and greatly increased his strength. But in fact, this also laid the second position of Sun Quan Wannian, and since then, Eastern Wu no longer has any hope of dominating the world, no matter how Sun Quan tosses, he has completely lost the opportunity to defeat Cao Wei.
epilogue
In the rendition, Lu Su is a typical honest person, and is even considered by many people to be "eating inside and outside", but in the main history, Lu Su's performance is completely different from yanyi. In the main history, Lu Su is a being who can be compared to Zhuge Liang, his strategic vision is not weaker than Zhuge Liang, if he lives a little longer, it is likely that he will fight With Guan Yu and Cao Cao during the Battle of Xiangfan, so the situation in the Three Kingdoms will definitely change greatly, maybe Eastern Wu really has a chance to seize the world!
