First, the fierce generals of the Three Kingdoms who can't understand
For the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there is such a saying: although the interpretation is good, the fierce generals in it are not understood, not to say that they are personal martial arts, but that they are fighting with each other. Let's say that Zhao Yun, the general who always wins, fights with Wen Ugly for sixty rounds without winning or losing, and looks very bullish.
What is the case, when Wen Ugly met Guan Yu, he was killed by Guan Yu within three combinations! Could this prove that Guan Yu is higher than Zhao Yun's martial arts? But now the recognized ranking of the fierce generals of the Three Kingdoms is, one Lu Two Zhao Three Dianwei, four passes, five horses and six Zhang Fei! Zhao Yun properly crushed Guan Yu.
Why? I'm afraid there is only one explanation, that is, before Guan Yu cursed Wen Ugly, the brothers of Wen Ugly spent too much physical strength, first pursuing Cao Cao, followed by the two fierce generals of Zhang Liao and Xu Huang, the elder brother made a fuss for half a day, and his physical strength was almost exhausted, but at this time Guan Yu killed halfway, so Guan Yu picked up a big bargain.
From this point of view, Guan Yu in the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", as soon as he encountered the enemy, he cornered his eyes at a 45-degree angle to the sky, and proudly asked: "How is Rubi Yan Liangwen ugly?" "It's a bit of a bargain." No wonder it didn't scare a few. On the contrary, Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei often frightened their opponents and did not dare to call out easily, especially Zhao Yun.
After The death of Dianwei, the fiercest of Cao Cao's men was Xu Chu, but xu Chu was obviously powerless after encountering Zhao Yun. For example, in order to save Liu Bei, Zhao Yun single-handedly fought Xu Chu, Yu Ban, and Li Dian, and Liu Bei, a small expert in escaping for his life, took the opportunity to scatter the servants and fled again.
But not long after, he bumped into Zhang Gao and Gao Lan again, and Liu Bei collapsed: It's over, and his life is not guaranteed! But suddenly, Zhao Yun killed again, killing Gao Lan with only one shot, and then beat Zhang Gao away in thirty rounds, and Liu Bei said happily: "Zilong zhen is a brave general!" ”
It should be known that before Zhao Yun, he was also surrounded and beaten by Xu Chu and other three fierce generals, not only was he able to break through smoothly, but he still had such a fierce combat strength (physical strength), which showed that Xu Chu, Yu Ban, and Li Dian, in fact, did not cause zhao Yun any trouble. Therefore, the reverse deduction can be seen that Xu Chu is obviously insufficient in the face of Zhao Yun.
But it was this Xu Chu, as soon as he met Ma Chao, he inexplicably burst out of terrifying energy, singled out Ma Chao, and carried out a life and death battle. It should be noted that before Ma Chao was defeated by forbidden, he withdrew from Zhang Guo, "in the middle of a number, one shot stabbed Li Tong under the horse", and then killed Cao Cao to cut off his beard and abandon his robe, and his mighty strength was no less than That of Zhao Yun.
Naturally, people have to ask, what is wrong with Xu Chu? The subtext is "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", why is it so irresponsible for the competition between fierce generals? In fact, it is not that "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is irresponsible at all, nor is it that Xu Chu has a problem with his brain, but that we have ignored the details of it!
The so-called devil is in the details, as long as you understand the details, you will understand why the fierce generals will fight so messily!
Second, the first detail
Whether it is the history of the Three Kingdoms or the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Xu Chu's positioning is very clear, that is, Cao Cao's bodyguard. In other words, any credit for Xu Chu came from his protection of Cao Cao.
As recorded in the Zhengshi, during the Battle of Guandu, Xu wanted to assassinate Cao Cao. Unexpectedly, Xu Chu suddenly had a fantastic sixth sense, realized that Cao Cao was in danger, and just returned to the tent, he returned desperately, bumping into Xu He, wanting to kill Cao Cao, so he looked different, so Xu Chu saved Cao Cao.
Although this incident is like a myth, it is enough to prove Xu Chu's dedication to the work. Without extraordinary investment, it is impossible to have the "sixth sense of divine help", which has been verified by many celebrities, the so-called "flash of inspiration".
Because Xu Chu is clearly positioned, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the treatment of Xu Chu is also based on this point. The warhorse was overtime, Yu Ban, Zhang Gao, and others were defeated, and Cao Cao was also chased and killed by Ma Chao, although Cao Cao cut his beard and abandoned his robe, he was still caught up by Ma Chao.
Cao Cao was so frightened that he ran around the tree, Ma Chao stabbed at the tree with a shot, and Cao Cao took the opportunity to throw a handmaiden and flee. When Ma Chao pulled out his gun, Cao Cao had already escaped from Laoyuan. Angry, Ma Chao scolded and chased, just at this time Cao Hong came and shouted, "Don't hurt my lord!" Cao Hong is here! "The wheel knife plunged the horse and stopped Ma Chao." .
Did you find a problem? What about Xu Chu?
It is reasonable to say that protecting Cao Cao is Xu Chu's duty, why did he disappear? No accounting! But obviously Xu Chu was derelict in his duties! To a bodyguard, it is glorious to die to protect the old war, such as Dianwei. However, Cao Cao was chased and killed by Ma Chao, and Xu Chu, the bodyguard, was missing.
Compared with what was said earlier, Zhao Yun fought Xu Chu, Yu Ban and Li Dian alone in order to save Liu Bei, and later shot Gao Lan and defeated Zhang Hao at thirty, which is the real bodyguard! Therefore, Cao Cao was so rubbed by Ma Chao, and it meant a great shame to speak to Xu Chu!
Therefore, Xu Chu must save all this! This is why Xu Chu suddenly wanted to have a life-and-death confrontation with Ma Chao, and the biggest motive was his snow shame battle, which was related to personal honor!
Third, the second detail
Still following the logic of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Xu Chu was obviously derelict in his duties, but did Cao Cao punish Xu Chu? No! However, he praised Cao Hong in a high profile, saying: "If I kill Cao Hong, I will die at the hands of Ma Chao today!" "Then he summoned Cao Hong and repaid the reward."
This is Cao Cao, this is the arrogance of the boss! Therefore, the author sometimes doubts, saying that the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is to honor Liu And degrade Cao, but how can you look more closely, the more like you are holding Cao Cao? Because after the high-profile reward for Cao Hong, Cao Cao did a more shrewd thing, let's continue to look.
After Cao Cao built the sand city, "(Ma) Chao led the troops to look at it, and was horrified, suspecting that there was divine help." The next day, the gathering army marched with a drum. Fu Zi rode out of the camp on horseback, and only Xu Chu followed."
Even then, Cao Cao took Xu Chu alone and wandered out to see Ma Chao! Don't forget, a few days ago, Cao Cao was chased and killed by Ma Chao, and he didn't even have a face and an image. But now he came with Xu Chu alone!
Ask, if you were Xu Chu at this moment, what would you feel, what would you think, what would you be in? It must be in a state of full blood, full of murderous qi, ready to protect Cao Cao's life at any time! Therefore, this frightened Ma Chao and asked, "There is a Tiger Hou in the Wen Ru Army, an Zaizai?" ”
Xu Chu raised his knife and shouted, "I am Xu Chuye of Yu County!" "Eyes are shining, and the wind is shaking." Chao did not dare to move, And nairoma returned.
Therefore, Xu Chu put down his bold words: "A certain day will capture Ma Chao." This was followed by "making people write a battle book, saying that The Tiger Hou shan and Ma Chao came to Japan for a decisive battle."
Thus, Xu Chu's naked war horse chao began! In the face of Xu Chu, who was obviously underwhelming zhao yun, it was like killing a god at this moment! Played with Ma Chao in the dark, regardless of victory or defeat.
Dare to ask, is there still a problem now? No problem at all! It is too obvious, this is a matter of honor and disgrace, snow shame a battle, Xu Chu is fighting with his life, and naturally he will burst out of his full potential.
Fourth, the general analysis
In the same way, why could Zhao Yun fight Xu Chu, Yu Ban, and Li Dian alone, and then kill Gao Lan with one shot from the Heavenly Gods, and defeat Zhang Gao at thirty? Where the duty lies, it is about honor - I Zhao Yun is here, and no one should think of moving Liu Bei unless I die.
Xu Chu is also in this situation, you Ma Chao made me lose face, but the boss not only did not scold me, but also trusted me so much, I don't kill you are sorry for the boss, just call me a bodyguard! At this moment, don't say Ma Chao, it is Lü Bu's resurrection, Xu Chu in this state, can definitely follow Lü Bu, play in the dark!
Speaking of which, it can be summarized into two reasons!
First, the role of spiritual power can also be regarded as a sense of honor! All those who have combat strength (ability) have a strong sense of personal honor, which is the source of their fighting strength. Lü Bu, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Xu Chu and other fierce generals of the Three Kingdoms are all like this, so there is a saying that "it is better to send a general than a radical general", and Zhuge Liang's hand is the most slippery!
Second, the role of the boss (leader)! Xu Chu's outbreak of this battle shocked the world. Cao Cao has hidden his merit and fame again! This is the boss, the real boss, not only limited to playing "distributing benefits, balancing relationships", the most bullish thing is that he always has a way to make his subordinates shine! Cao Cao and Zhuge Liang are the most proficient masters of this path in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
