In the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Cao Cao has many fierce generals, and among the twenty-four generals of the Three Kingdoms is Dianwei, Xu Chu, Xiahou Huan, Xiahou Yuan, Zhang Liao, Zhang Guo, Xu Huang, Pang De, Zhang Xiu, and others (Deng Ai's later period does not count), in addition to these people, there are actually some fierce generals who are also good in force, such as Lejin and Li Dian, who are going to talk about today, Cao Cao said that they were "brave, although Cen Peng and Ma Wu were not as good as they were", the two often fought together, of which Le Jin fought in 50 rounds to draw Ling Tong, and Li Dian to draw Zhao Yun in more than 10 rounds. So who is more powerful in these two men's forces? Let's first look at the description of the relevant battle example in the interpretation:
1. Cao Ren ordered Li Dian to come out and confront Zhao Yun. About ten times in the battle, Li Pawn was invincible and pulled his horse back to the front.
2. Pioneer Zhang Liao and Ling Tong clashed, fighting for fifty rounds, regardless of victory or defeat. Sun Quan feared that Ling Tong would lose his command, so Lü Meng took him back to the camp.
3. Zhang Liao made Le go in and out of the battle, and the two fights reached fifty, and there was no victory or defeat. Cao Cao heard this, and personally rode to the gate flag to see, and saw that the second general was fighting, but cao Xiu secretly released a cold arrow.
Two things can be seen from the description above:
First, judging from Li Dian's initiative to retreat, he could still support Zhao Yun for a while, but it would not exceed 20 rounds at most.
Second, Le Jin, Zhang Liao, and Ling Tong fought for fifty rounds without winning or losing, although it can be seen from the details that Le Jin is slightly inferior to Ling Tong, and Ling Tong is slightly inferior to Zhang Liao, but Le Jin's strength will not be much worse than Zhang Liao.
Although the strength of the Generals of Jiangdong was far inferior to that of Cao Wei and Shu Han as a whole, there were also a few people who could take it, such as Sun Ce, Tai ShiCi, Gan Ning and Ling Tong, and Ling Tong's strength was enough to rank fourth in Jiangdong, three points stronger than Zhou Tai, not to mention Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Chen Wu and others, Le Jin and Ling Tong's fifty rounds of battle were already quite powerful.
Many of Cao Cao's generals, such as Xu Chu, Xu Huang, and Zhang Guo, had fought with Zhao Yun, of which Zhang Gao was defeated by Zhao Yun for more than thirty rounds, and Li Dian could only support 20 rounds at most, so how many rounds could LeJin support in Zhao Yun's hands?
Lejin's force is not as good as Zhang Liao's, and it is certainly not as good as Zhang Gao(Zhang Gao once fought with Zhang Liao for fifty rounds), and he certainly can't support thirty rounds in Zhao Yun's hands, but since he can fight with Ling Tong, the fourth-ranked general in Jiangdong, within fifty rounds, it is estimated that he can support more than 20 rounds under Zhao Yun's gun, which means that Lejin's strength should be slightly higher than Li Dian's.
In fact, Le Jin's record in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is also much better than Li Dian's, in addition to pingling Lingtong, he also drew Zang Ba in 30 rounds, in addition to shooting chenglian, one of the eight jian generals of the Lü army, on the eve of the Battle of Xiaoyaojin, single-handedly raiding Sun Quan, cutting off Sun Quan's close bodyguard Song Qian and Jia Hua's double halberds with a knife.
In fact, the strength of Lejin in the Yanyi is seriously underestimated, the Lejin force in the zhengshi is much stronger than the Yanyi, the author of the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" Chen Shou commented on him is "famous for the xiaoguo", Lejin is the number one vanguard under Cao Cao, every battle is the first to climb the front charge, he is the first of the Cao Ying generals to be awarded the title of marquis for battle merits (in 194 Lejin was named the Marquis of Guangchangting) because of his meritorious service), in terms of personal strength, Lejin is enough to rank in the top ten or even higher in the history of the Three Kingdoms, and Cao Cao's subordinates are also Zhang Liao stronger than him Dianwei and Xu Chu are not necessarily stronger than him (judging from the records of the zhengshi, Lejin is much stronger than Dianwei and Xu Chu).
In addition, Le Jin may be the person who killed the most enemy generals in the history of the Three Kingdoms (the Battle of Guandu beheaded Yuan Shao's general Chun Yuqiong, and the Battle of Liyang beheaded the general Yan Jing), Li Dian is a famous Confucian general in the main history, and the force is not how powerful it is, in short, whether it is Yanyi or Zhengshi, Li Dian is not as good as Lejin in terms of personal force.
