Liu Bei's Imperial Expedition: The thrilling battle of the Battle of Yiling.
In the Three Kingdoms era, the emperor's personal conquest became a footnote to history. Liu Bei, Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty, fought countless battles in his life. After becoming emperor, he personally led a large army to launch the memorable Battle of Yiling in Shu Han, targeting Eastern Wu and taking revenge for Eastern Wu to seize Jingzhou and kill Guan Yu. However, the battle was tortuous, and Liu Bei received bad news when the army was assembled, and Zhang Fei was killed by his generals.
In order to counter Liu Bei's powerful army, Sun Quan appointed Lu Xun as the governor of the capital to face the Shu army. At the same time, he skillfully sent envoys to reconcile with Cao Pi's ministers to avoid fighting on two fronts. Lu Xun adopted a strategy of holding out, so that Liu Bei failed to achieve the strategic intention of a quick victory. The Shu army gradually lost its fighting spirit and fell into a stalemate. Liu Bei ordered the boat to be landed, set up a military camp in the deep mountains and dense forests, and prepared to wait until autumn before launching an attack. However, Lu Xun seized the opportunity to burn down the company's camp, and Liu Bei suffered a crushing defeat, almost becoming a prisoner, and finally retreated into Yong'an City with difficulty.
The defeat in the Battle of Yiling inflicted a heavy blow on the Shu Han regime, not only losing a large number of soldiers and supplies, but also many outstanding generals were killed in this battle. The most painful thing is that Liu Bei died of illness in 223 AD, which plunged the Shu Han regime into turmoil. Fortunately, with Zhuge Liang's insistence, the Shu Han regime was able to temporarily maintain unity.
Emperor Cao Wei's Southern Expedition to Eastern Wu: Cao Pi's Challenge and Brief Subjectivity.
After the Battle of Yiling, in order to avoid fighting on two fronts, Sun Quan reconciled with Cao Pi's vassals. However, this brief relationship of vassalage ended soon after the end of the war. In 222 AD, Cao Pi led an army to conquer Eastern Wu, and Cao Wei's armies marched together and achieved great results. Jiangling was almost breached, however, the spread of the plague and Sun Quan's opportunity to re-send Nagong led Cao Pi to order the withdrawal of his troops as he approached victory.
In 224 and 225 AD, Cao Pi personally conquered Eastern Wu twice, but failed to achieve significant results. Some people believe that these two military operations were just Cao Pi's southern expedition to Eastern Wu, and the actual goal was to eliminate the local separatist forces in the Qingzhou and Xuzhou areas. In practice, this goal seems to have been achieved.
Emperor Cao Wei's Northern Expedition: Cao Bo's Peculiar Military Campaign.
Among Zhuge Liang's five Northern Expeditions, the first Northern Expedition in 228 AD became the one that Cao Wei was most worried about. The Northern Expedition directly forced Cao Nose to slaughter the town of Chang'an, and in the end, Ma Yan's heroic behavior gave a big gift, which brought satisfactory results to Cao Bo's personal expedition.
In 234 AD, Sun Quan launched another attack on Hefei, and Cao Barium personally led a large army to support. Although Sun Quan was again defeated at Hefei, after receiving the news of Cao Nose's mane moon, Sun Quan wisely retreated, making Cao Bo's Northern Expedition a success.
The last emperor of Cao Wei: Cao Chao's danger is full of dangers.
Even if he is a puppet in the hands of the Sima family, Cao Chao has also experienced the imperial conquest. In 257 AD, Zhuge rebelled in Huainan, and Sima Zhao decided to go to the crusade in person. However, he was worried that Cao Chao would take the opportunity to seize power in the rear, so he hijacked Cao Chao and Empress Dowager Guo to fight with the army. In the end, Zhuge Dan was defeated and killed the following year, and Cao Chao's "Imperial Driving Expedition" was also in danger.
The Hefei Remorse of the Eastern Wu Emperor: Sun Quan's Dilemma and Challenges.
During the Three Kingdoms period, Sun Quan's personal target on the battlefield was often locked in Hefei. Each attack ended in failure, earning him the nickname "Sun 100,000". Even after ascending the throne and becoming emperor, Sun Quan did not give up his attack on Hefei. In 233 AD, Sun Quan personally led an army to attack Hefei, but was defeated in the hands of Man Zhong and returned in vain. Hefei became a shame for Sun Quan's life, making it difficult for him to get rid of the shadow of memories.
In this era of heroic conquest of the Three Kingdoms, each emperor's imperial expedition is a legendary life, and every battle records their wisdom and predicament. These historical stories are interwoven into a wonderful chapter of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, let us review this magnificent history together.
The Heroes of the Three Kingdoms: The Legendary Life of the Emperor's Imperial Expedition" describes the experience of the three emperors in the era of war, vividly showing the resourcefulness, courage and political decision-making difficulties of the heroes and heroes of that period. These emperors have left a profound footprint on the stage of history, which is worthy of our in-depth consideration and discussion.
First of all, Liu Bei, as Emperor Zhaolie of the Han Dynasty, reached its peak in the Battle of Yiling with his imperial conquest. This battle was not only for revenge, but also for a head-on challenge to Soochow. However, Liu Bei's defeat not only led to a huge loss for Shu Han, but also brought his personal political career to a low point. This shows that in troubled times, even heroes who strive for hegemony will inevitably face the cruelty of war and political changes.
Cao Pi showed a firm determination to conquer Eastern Wu in the south, and although his brief vassal relationship ended, he launched a powerful offensive against Eastern Wu in many personal expeditions. However, plague, diplomacy and other factors prevented Cao Pi from achieving complete victory and was eventually forced to withdraw his troops. This also reflects the difficulty of decision-making and the uncertainty of the outcome in troubled times, and even the emperor with great talent can hardly control everything.
Cao Bo faced Zhuge Liang's five Northern Expeditions during the Northern Expedition, and although he had a successful first Northern Expedition, he stopped in Guangling in the two subsequent expeditions. This strange military operation has aroused people's doubts, but it has also achieved the goal of eliminating local separatist forces to a certain extent. This reflects the political considerations and complexities behind war, even if it may seem strange on the surface, but there may be deep strategic considerations in troubled times.
As the last emperor, Cao Chao's actions in the face of Zhuge Dan's rebellion showed the high power of the Sima family. He hijacked Cao Chao and went out with the army, and finally succeeded in maintaining the stability of the regime. This shows that in troubled times, the emperor not only needs to face external enemies, but also always be vigilant against internal power struggles, and political means and military actions complement each other.
Sun Quan has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people with the image of going to the battlefield many times, especially his obsession with Hefei. However, each failure became a lifelong regret. This shows that in troubled times, individual perseverance and efforts may face the constraints of the external environment and fail to achieve the ideal goal.
Overall, this essay profoundly outlines the experiences of the emperors of the Three Kingdoms era in troubled times, showing their complex political, military, and diplomatic choices. This history tells us that in troubled times, heroes can hardly escape the impermanence of fate, and every emperor has left his own legend on the journey.
