The unique charm of literature can only be known to know the clues and contents contained in it, especially in some classical literary works, which can deeply integrate the reader into the story, and among the many classical literary works, there will naturally be some works that are more outstanding and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
As one of the four famous works, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is naturally ranked first, the story depicted in it is too realistic, realistic to a long time, many people regard this literary work as a real historical thing, especially the lives of some military generals attract countless eyeballs, but it should be known that historical facts must not be covered by literary influence, so there is still a difference between what happened in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and history!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="30" > five tiger generals </h1>
Many places where historical facts and literary works are in and out will surprise people, and there will be a lot of controversy when the great image of the hero created by "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is completely destroyed. Among them, there are five of the most outstanding generals in the Shu Han Dynasty, and these five generals were also named "Five Tiger Generals", which seems to be beyond doubt in people's minds, but this is where the controversy lies.
It is true that literary works describe the "Five Tiger Generals", but in the real history of the Shu Han Dynasty, did it really have the "Five Tiger Generals"? After reading the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", we also directly see that Liu Bei began to reward the heroes after the tribulations and the establishment of the Shu Han. It is worth noting that Liu Bei, who claimed to be emperor, issued an edict to grant the title, and there were only four generals on the edict.
Among these four generals, four are exactly four of the "Five Tiger Generals" in literary works, and there is also one Zhao Yun who is excluded, which is very confusing, and the sudden transformation of the "Five Tiger Generals" who is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people into the "Four Tiger Generals" is really unbelievable, and people can't help but start to think, is Zhao Yun's real historical status really under Guan Yu and Zhang Fei?
To understand the deep meaning, first of all, from whether Zhao Yun has the ability to be pushed to such a position, Zhao Yun began to learn martial arts from a young age, but also in the late Eastern Han Dynasty to learn a martial art, in this chaotic world, Zhao Yun first found Gongsun Zhan as his lord.
For Zhao Yun, this is still consistent in writings and history, the reason why Zhao Yun did not choose the most powerful Yuan Shao at that time was simply that Yuan Shao was not benevolent enough, compared to Gongsun Zhan, which was the beginning of Zhao Yun's temporary entrepreneurship, to a certain extent, it was implied that Zhao Yun would join Liu Bei's camp under the promotion of the war!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="29" > bloody battle</h1>
In the midst of the chaos of war, Zhao Yun met Liu Bei and others, and Zhao Yun was also impressed by Liu Bei's benevolence, and Liu Bei was attracted by Zhao Yun's martial arts, and it was under such a coincidence that Zhao Yun began to follow Liu Bei, adding a powerful combat force to Liu Bei's team.
"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is very focused on the description of Zhao Yun, it seems that the author is particularly fond of the role of Zhao Yun, giving him a lot of opportunities to show martial arts and majesty, so that the world is also deeply remembered for this role, such a role is very successful, but in the real history is not such a warrior.
The historical record of Zhao Yun is more biased towards The Confucian general, which is recorded in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", because liu Bei's forces at that time captured Xiahou Lan, and Zhao Yun and Xiahou Lan were old acquaintances, well aware of Xiahou Lan's achievements in the law, so they had the intention to leave it, and later under Zhao Yun's arrangement, Xiahou Lan arrived in Zhao Yun's hands, from which it can be seen that Zhao Yun is not so simple as a military general, his mind is very delicate.
In the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the battle depiction of Zhao Yun is even more wonderful, especially Zhao Yun single-handedly broke into the Cao Army to rescue Liu Bei's family, and even risked the story of the seven in and seven out killed in the Cao Army, and the story of single breaking into Chang banpo, so that more readers have the idea of worship for Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun was also named the General of Yamen, but this paragraph is not recorded in history, and it is most likely that the role is to further deepen the purpose of Zhao Yun, setting off Zhao Yun's ability and most of the credit for Shu Han.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="15" > not reused</h1>
In the records of Zhao Yun in the Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms, he was not included in the ranks of the generals, only the four tiger generals. Zhao Yun was excluded, and even Zhao Yun was only a platform general, and even at the request of other generals, he was posthumously awarded the title of Marquis of Shunping after Zhao Yun's death. This is very strange, after all, Zhao Yun is indispensable to Shu Han, and he also single-handedly rescued shu Han's future successor, repeatedly saving Liu Bei and water and fire, why is his status so low!
Among them, this is also easy to understand, that is, Zhao Yun is naturally loyal to Liu Bei, and Zhao Yun, who is alone with Liu Bei, most of the time follows Liu Bei's side, as Liu Bei's escort general, there is no chance to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei two generals participated in various battles, and made great contributions to Shu Han, which also shows that the merits of the two generals exceed Zhao Yun
Zhao Yun's most important role in Liu Bei's side was "bodyguard", and there was also the leader of the guard, even if Zhao Yun had great ability, he could not get the opportunity to show it. If Zhao Yun did not have a chance in the war, then in Liu Bei's side, Zhao Yun's straightforward personality was also a reason why he was not reused.
Zhao Yun's team was always on the right side, but for that time, Guan Yu was killed by Wu Guo, and Liu Bei raised troops to plan to attack Wu Guo, as a workplace, it was inevitable that he would not be welcomed by his own master, and at that time, many courtiers agreed with Liu Bei's behavior, Zhao Yun's opposition voice seemed so harsh, and Liu Bei was naturally repeatedly advised, and he was upset with Zhao Yun!
For Zhao Yun's non-reuse, there is also a point from Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang himself, Liu Bei's great righteousness made the impulse to launch a war against the allies, and Zhuge Liang was very distrustful of Zhao Yun, which can be reflected in the cause of the Northern Expedition, for the war, Zhao Yun was hardly entrusted with any important tasks, the two largest in power in the Shu Han Dynasty did not use Zhao Yun, how could Zhao Yun's status surpass other generals?
epilogue:
Zhao Yun wholeheartedly followed Liu Bei, wanted to make contributions to the Shu Han, and had a body of martial arts and talents, but it was difficult to be reused, that is, he fell behind a lifetime of regrets, which is bound to be a major loss of the Shu Han, and as a modern person, he should respect historical facts and distinguish between writing figures and historical figures to correctly view history!
