Among the famous generals of the Three Kingdoms, the personalities of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei can be combined into a harmonic word: anxiety. Its original intention should be Guan Yu's pride and Zhang Fei's irritability.
The grumpy Zhang Fei even dared to poke Guan Yu, if it were not for the high skill of the Xiahou girl, Zhang Fei would have been able to clean up at that time - even when Liu Bei spoke, Zhang Fei would sometimes be on the sidelines, if Zhang Fei had listened to Liu Bei's advice earlier and been gentle with his opponents, there would have been no tragedy of the first rank running thousands of miles to Eastern Wu.
It is said that Guan Yu Guan Yunchang is the first proud person in the Three Kingdoms, but when we look closely at the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", we find that Guan Yu was arrogant after Lü Bu's death, and only after Lü Bu hung up, Guan Yu saw that everyone was like a bidder selling head. Before that, the grumpy Zhang Fei wanted to fight with Lü Bu when he had nothing to do, and it was more and more courageous in the Vietnam War, and then it was already a hundred rounds of victory or defeat.
However, the proud Guan Yu never took the initiative to single out Lü Bu, and the only time he fought with Lü Bu was after Zhang Fei played fifty rounds first and consumed some of Lü Bu's physical strength, the two brothers joined forces to fight one.
According to Guan Yu's personality with eyes above the top, didn't he want to win the crown of the first general of the Three Kingdoms by killing Lü Bu? Looking closely at the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, we will find that Guan Yu never took the initiative to single out Lü Bu's three reasons, and as for which of these three reasons is the most important, it is up to the readers to draw the final conclusion.
The three reasons why Guan Yu did not take the initiative to single out Lü Bu can be briefly summarized into ten words: no chance, no fight, and someone will not let it.
Liu Guan Zhang Taoyuan is in love with brothers and sisters, Guan Yu ranks second, it must be more stable than the third brother, some of Liu Bei's words are not good, can only be said by him to Zhang Fei, such as Zhang Fei drank and lost Xuzhou and Liu Bei's wife, Liu Bei's heart was like a knife but could only remain silent (Xuan De was silent), it was Guan Yu who split his head and covered his face to train Zhang Fei: "When you first wanted to defend the city, what did you say?" Brother commanded you to come? Today the city is lost again, and the sister-in-law is trapped again, how to be good! ”
Zhang Fei was ashamed and almost drew his sword to kill himself. At this time, Liu Beicai cried loudly, and he didn't know whether he was crying Zhang Fei or crying Xuzhou and his wife, anyway, zhang Fei was moved by a word: "Guan, Zhang Ju wept. ”
As the second brother, Guan Yu should take care of the face of the eldest brother XuanDe, but also take into account the temper of the third brother Yide, so the fight and kill thing is generally Zhang Fei's first shot, Guan Yu can only watch the enemy plundering the front, if he is the first to rush up, Zhang Fei must follow closely behind, then Liu Bei has become the commander of the light pole - in the novel, Liu Bei's martial arts are not as high as in the history, and there is no master around him.
Because he wanted to protect Liu Bei, and at the same time he wanted to give the limelight to the third brother, so Guan Yu did not have the opportunity to single out Lü Bu, which was one of the reasons, and the second reason was that Guan Yu knew that he could not beat Lü Bu.
Can Guan Yu really not beat Lü Bu? The answer to this question is yes, as evidenced by the Tiger Prison Before the Tiger Prison Pass: "Fly the spirit, fight Lü Bu." More than fifty consecutive fights, regardless of victory or defeat. Yun Chang saw it, slapped the horse, and danced eighty-two pounds of green dragon and moon knives to attack Lü Bu. Three martins fight. The battle reached thirty, and the battle could not defeat Lü Bu. Liu Xuande slashed his double-stranded sword, suddenly yellow-maned horse, and stabbed Xieli to help in the battle. The three surrounded Lü Bu and fought like lights. ”
Readers, please note that Zhang Fei did not show defeat, the so-called Zhang Fei was knocked down by Lü Bu, that is the interpretation of the TV series - some TV series played Zhang Fei into a humble who would only scream in a sharp voice, that is, he had neither watched "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" nor "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", thinking that Li Kui threw away the axe and picked up the spear was Zhang Fei.
In time, Zhang Fei is likely to win Lü Bu, but Guan Yu does not have this possibility: on physical fitness, Lü Bu is not under Guan Yu, but Guan Yu's Green Dragon Yanyue Knife is too heavy, he and others are all based on the first three knives, if the thirty rounds have not yet won, then this fight can not be won.
With Lü Bu's courage, don't say three moves and thirty moves, even three hundred moves can be held, and Guan Yu's big knife will become slower and slower, and sitting down on that ordinary war horse may have already fallen down.
Guan Yu Zhang Fei also called ten thousand enemies, not only has the ability to command thousands of troops and horses, personal martial arts are also outstanding, they started from the horse archer step archer, the rest of their lives, accumulated a wealth of experience in fighting. As soon as the connoisseur makes a move, he knows if there is one. Guan Yu looked at Lü Bu's performance in front of the Tiger Prison Pass, and knew that he could easily kill Hua Xiong, but he absolutely could not beat Lü Bu, so when he saw lü Bu, he could hide and hide, and at most he would help in the case of the third brother taking the lead.
According to this calculation, Guan Yu could not win Lü Bu in this life - compared with Zhang Fei, Guan Yu seemed to lack some bright sword spirit, which he seemed to learn from Li Yunlong: "Ancient swordsmen and masters meet in a narrow way, assuming that this opponent is the world's first swordsman, knowing that he is a death, he also wants the sword to be sheathed, this is called a bright sword, without this courage you should not be a swordsman." Falling under the opponent's sword is not a disgrace, that is called defeat and glory, if you don't dare to show the sword, you don't mix in the jianghu in the future. ”
In addition to not having the opportunity and fighting, Guan Yu never took the initiative to single out Lü Bu, and there was another important reason, that is, Luo Guanzhong did not let it - "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" shaped Guan Yu into a martial saint with countless protagonist auras, if he was beaten away by Lü Bu when he singled out, wouldn't half of the readers tear up the book?
Readers all know that from the Wei Jin to the Tang and Song dynasties, there was Guan Yu worship, and even let Guan Yu succeed Zhao Gongming and become the god of wealth, the god of wealth was defeated by the three family slaves, it is estimated that many businessmen will also find Luo Guanzhong to settle accounts.
To sum up, Guan Yu, a martial sage with a proud heart and no children, never singled out Lü Bu in his life, which was far less domineering than Zhang Fei and Xu Chu.
Of course, saying that Guan Yu could not beat Lü Bu was only the words of the author's family, and the final conclusion had to be followed by the readers: Guan Yu never took the initiative to single out Lü Bu, and there may be three reasons for this, which one is the most important? If Guan Yu and Lü Bu go head-to-head, how many rounds can they keep undefeated? Fair head-to-head, what is Guan Yu's hope of winning?
