Guan Yu understood that Pang De's defeat had nothing to do with Yu Ban, and he would not be embarrassed to face Pang Rou if he did not surrender
Whether it is "Three Kingdoms" or "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Pound's score is very high, especially in "Three Kingdoms - Volume 18 - Two Li Zangwen Lu Xu Dian Er Pang Yan Biography", Pound can fight like Ma Chao:"De Teng Zichao refused to help (Guo Yuan, Cao Cao's nephew) and Gan (**Yuan Shao's nephew) in Pingyang. Fengdu Pavilion Marquis, Zhonglang General. Later, Zhang Baijie rebelled in Hongnong, and De Sui Teng went out to fight and broke Baijie between two meat and one wine. In every battle, the enemy is captured, and the army is bravely crowned"。
Pound said"Yongguan Tengjun", which means that no one in Ma Teng's army is more capable of fighting than Pound, and Ma Chao is not as brave as Pound.
Pang De was the first commander of the Western Liang cavalry, and was later captured by Guan Yu. Guan Yu, who has always been high-minded and affectionate, patiently persuaded Pang De to serve him, but Pang De was unwilling to eat salt, so Guan Yu had to kill him and hold a grand funeral for him.
After Pang De's son Pang Hui entered Sichuan, he killed Guan Yu's family, which is very unusual: the two armies are fighting, either I kill you or you kill me, but Pang De and Guan Yu fight for their masters, there is no personal grudge, and Guan Yu respects Pang De enough. If Guan Yu beheaded Pang De and threw him in the desert, Pang De might not even be able to find a place to cry his grave.
To highlight Romain Pound's"Loyalty", the Seventh Army was flooded, and Pound was captured by Yu Ban with the black cauldron on his back. However, if we look through the historical materials of the Three Kingdoms, we will find that the reason for Pang De's capture has nothing to do with Yu Ban's refusal to surrender to Guan Yu, in fact, there is another hidden reason: this old man does not hate Ma Chao, and he has no shame to see Jiangdong's father Pang Rou.
First of all, we have to see one thing clearly, Pang De Yu Ban is not the vanguard officer of the Seventh Army, let alone Yu Ban's subordinates, he was there before Ban went to Xiangfan to kill:"Hou Yin, Wei Kai and others led Wan, De, Cao Ren and other rebels to repel Wan, Yin cut Kai, and then went to Tuan Fan Nan to argue with Guan Yu. "
From the records of the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms", we know that the battle of Xiangfan was not initiated by Guan Yu, not ordered by Liu Bei Zhuge Liang, but by Cao Cao who took the initiative to attack Guan Yu"Jingzhou, the eastern capital"。""Passive Battle:"In the winter and October of the twenty-third year of Jian'an, Wan Shouhou Yin and others rebelled against the monarch Nanyang Taishou and robbed the officials and people to protect Wan. At the beginning, Cao Ren, Guan Yu, Tun Fan City, and Yueren discussed the siege of Wancheng. Twenty-four years, in the spring of the first month, benevolence killed ten thousand people. "
Judging from the above records, at the beginning of the Battle of Xiangfan, Liu Bei and Cao Cao were still in Hanzhong, Guan Yu, who surrendered in Houyin, was killed by Cao Ren, and Huang Zhong was beheaded earlier than Xiahou Yuan, so we can understand why Liu Bei Zhuge Liang did not go out of the mountain to help Guan Yu: At that time, the war in Hanzhong was very difficult, Xichuan"Men should fight, women should be lucky! ", gritted his teeth and avoided Cao Cao, not to mention the Jingzhou army transporting grain, and Guan Yu's troops did not pull well.
After the battle of Cao Ren Xiangfan, Yu Ban immediately led 30,000 reinforcements from the Seventh Army to arrive"In the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an, Taizu was in Chang'an, and asked Cao Ren to discuss the battle of Guan Yu and Fancheng, and sent Ban Chao to help Ren"。
Yu is not allowed, although there is a pseudo-division battle axe, but he can't command Pang De, and Cao Ren doesn't dare to give orders to Pang De, he still listens to Cao Ren:"Ren to virtue Tun Fan Cheng north ten miles, will rain more than ten days, Han water flooding, Fancheng plain five or six zhang. Virtue and the generals, five uncles (five hundred people long) two, bend the bow and Fu wings, and travel in a small boat! I want to return to the camp"。
Pang De was ordered to return to Fancheng, defended by Cao Ren, and after the defeat, he tried to return to Fancheng, perhaps he did not even encounter Yu Ban, let alone was suppressed because of his limited strength.
In this battle of Xiangfan, which Cao Cao ordered Cao Ren to provoke, Cao Ren, not Yu Ban, was the commander of the enemy army on Cao Cao's front, and Pang De, who had served under Cao Ren for a long time, was not questioned in front of Cao Cao. At that time, it was the generals under Cao Ren who did not trust Pound:"All the generals under him thought that Brother De was in Hanzhong, and they were very suspicious"。
"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" said that Pang De refused to surrender after being captured by Guan Yu for two reasons: first, the first monarch Ma Chao had no plan, and abandoned him after repeated defeats, and the two sides had nothing to do with it; The second is that Pound is in his hometown, living with his brother, and his sister-in-law is very jealous of him, and Pound is drunk and wields a sword to kill him. Pang De's brother Pang Rou hated him so much that he vowed never to see him again, so he left Yi.
Pang De was unwilling to return to Ma Chao's command, and he had no shame to face his brother Pang Rou, so he refused Guan Yu's persuasion to surrender, and would rather die than save his name.
The question is, even if Pang Rou's wife has misdeeds, how could Pang De, as a younger brother, report to his brother at most, how could he commit the crime of killing his sister-in-law with a knife? Pang Rou hates Pound to the core, does this mean that Pound did something he shouldn't have done after drinking?
If Pang Rou's wife was really ungrateful, Pang De's killing of his sister-in-law would not have caused the brothers to turn against each other - it is a pity that there are very few records of Pang Rou in the history books, and it is impossible to reveal the real reason and process of Pang De's killing of his sister-in-law.
If we look closely at "Wei Luo", we will find that it is impossible for Pang De to kill his sister-in-law, because Pang Rou is not his own brother, but a parasite, and his cousin will not run to Pang Rou's house to eat and live"The brother's name is in you and in Shu"。
Xiahoudun"、"Xiahou Yuan"、"Cao Cao"、"Cao Ren"、"Cao Hong"Sort of"Brothers", but they all live separately"Xiahou Yuan"、"Xiahoudun"、"Cao Ren"、"Cao Hong"Nor is it a community. Romance of the Three Kingdoms - Volume 9 - The Biography of Xiahou Hui contains:"Yanzhou Yu chaos, Yuan starved to death, abandoned his young son, and lived with his dead brother and daughter"。
When Xiahou Yuan starved to death while feeding Zhang Fei's wife, it was only his son who died, his"Brothers"Xiahoudun did not help him, and Cao Cao, as half of his relative, did not give him food.
Pang Rou only said that Pang De didn't know"Don"，"Don"Generations are Pound's"Brother", it is impossible for them to eat and live together, and Pound also killed his sister-in-law, which is of course nonsense, and there is no record in the history books.
Why Pang De refused to surrender, Guan Yu is very clear, and "Three Kingdoms" clearly wrote:"If you want Pound to stand upright, don't kneel. The pen said:"Brother Qing is in Hanzhong, I want to take Qing as a general, why not descend early? "De scolded Yu:"Shaft, what is the fall! The king of Wei has millions of troops and is powerful all over the world. Er Liu Bei is extraordinary, not an enemy! It is better to be a national ghost than a thief. It is better to be the soul of the country than a thief.
Guan Yu was still very sincere to Pang De and promised Pang De to be the general in his army. As a result, Guan Yu, who was nearly sixty years old, was declared Pound's"Shafts"and passed away peacefully.
From Cao Cao's later attitude towards Pang De's family, we can see the reason why Pang De is bent on death:"When Taizu heard his sorrow, he shed tears for it, and made his two sons princes"。
Pang De died without surrendering, and Cao Cao made his two sons marquis. If Pang De surrendered and became Guan Yu's general, how would Cao Cao treat his family? This is also one of the main reasons why Pang De is reluctant to surrender to Guan Yu: the daughter-in-law can find someone else, but the two sons cannot be separated from them. Pang Dening did not surrender to death, and exchanged his death for the safety of the whole family, in exchange for the future of his sons!
