In Luo Guanzhong's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the classic plot of Guan Yu's warm wine and slashing Huaxiong was portrayed to be thrilling, but in fact, no such scene has happened in history. This article will reveal that Hua Xiong in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was not a fierce general, nor was he killed by Guan Yu, what is the truth?
1. The fictional story in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
Luo Guanzhong's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" often changes history in order to shape the image of the characters. For example, the battle of Bowangpo was actually commanded by Liu Bei alone, but it became Zhuge Liang's stage in **. Similarly, Hua Xiong is depicted as a fierce general with a length of nine feet and a tiger's body and a wolf's waist in **, which is very different from the image of the unknown general in the official history.
In the fifth episode, Hua Xiong defeated Sun Jian at Bishui Pass, killed the generals Yu Shi and Pan Feng, and led to Guan Yu's heroic feat of beheading Hua Xiong. However, actual historical records show that Hua Xiong was not a fierce general, let alone killed by Guan Yu.
2. The truth of the official history.
According to the Zizhi Tongjian, Volume 60, Hua Xiong was not beheaded by Guan Yu, but was defeated by Sun Jian. Sun Jian was one of the few generals who had several head-to-head confrontations with Dong Zhuo's army in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and won great victories, becoming an important force in the crusade against Dong Zhuo. And in **, Sun Jian was defeated by Hua Xiong, which is a distortion of historical facts.
3. The trickery of Lu Bu and Hu Zhen.
After Sun Jian defeated Hua Xiong, Dong Zhuo sent Lü Bu and Hu Zhen to meet him. The relationship between Lü Bu and Hu Zhen was tense, and Lü Bu deliberately provoked it, causing Hu Zhen to continue the pursuit. With the city demoralized, hungry, thirsty, and destitute, Lü Bu spread rumors that Sun Jian had attacked at night, resulting in the annihilation of Hu Zhen's army and the beheading of Hua Xiong. This battle was not a heroic performance by Hua Xiong, but a conspiracy by Lu Bu and Hu Zhen.
Fourth, Sun Jian's real record.
Sun Jian was the only general who confronted Dong Zhuo's army several times in the coalition against Dong Zhuo in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and won great victories. His bravery forced Dong Zhuo to move the capital to Chang'an, and he became the best of the Kwantung heroes at that time. However, after the disbandment of the coalition against Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian was unable to continue his achievements and was eventually killed during the attack on Jingzhou.
V. Conclusions. Hua Xiong was not killed by Guan Yu, but by Sun Jian. ** The "warm wine beheading Huaxiong" is a distortion of the historical truth. The conspiracy of Lü Bu and Hu Zhen led to Hua Xiong's rout, while Sun Jian showed his true record with several major victories. In the troubled years of the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Sun Jian was an up-and-coming general, but due to his untimely death, his reputation failed to match his true abilities.
The truth is revealed: the difference between Sun Jian's heroic achievements and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
By analyzing historical facts, we find that there are many fictional elements in the story about Huaxiong in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". In real history, Sun Jian was a heroic general in the crusade against Dong Zhuozhong, while Hua Xiong was not a fierce general, let alone killed by Guan Yu. This revelation allows us to better understand the historical truth and face up to the difference between ** and reality.
Sun Jian's Truth Revealed: The Interweaving of History and **" reveals the true history behind the story of "Warm Wine and Killing Huaxiong" in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". This thought-provoking historical investigation has a profound impact on our understanding of the way we adapt history and the twists and turns of the truth in history.
First of all, the article mentions that adaptations of history are often used to highlight certain characters and create more engaging plots. For example, the Battle of Bowangpo and the image of Hua Xiong are both exaggerated in **, making the story even more dramatic. This literary approach, while catering to the reader's need for a heroic narrative, also makes us reflect on the caution we should maintain when understanding history.
Secondly, the article emphasizes the difference between the official historical record and the ** plot. Through the reference to the "Zizhi Tongjian, Volume 60", we see that the Wenjiu beheading Huaxiong described in ** is actually a node in Sun Jian's victory over Dong Zhuo's army in history. This comparison makes us realize that in historical research, information should be obtained from multiple perspectives, not simply relying on ** or historical books, but comprehensive consideration.
The text also mentions the trickery of Lü Bu and Hu Zhen, highlighting the complexity of intrigue and conspiracy in history. This is also a detail that is often omitted in **, but there is a profound side of it in the official historical record. Such depictions present readers with strategies and resourcefulness in historical wars, adding a three-dimensional sense to historical stories.
Finally, when analyzing Sun Jian's real achievements, the article affirms his real contribution to history. Although he died young in ** and failed to establish a greater career, in fact, his bravery and might in the troubled times in the late Eastern Han Dynasty had a non-negligible contribution to the success of the crusade against Dong Zhuo. This kind of re-examination of historical heroes helps us to transcend the stereotype of the heroic image in ** and understand historical figures more comprehensively.
On the whole, "Sun Jian's Truth Revealed: The Interweaving of History and **" triggers thinking about historical truth and narrative mode through the comparison between ** and history. This kind of in-depth analysis makes readers more alert to the possible historical corrections in the entertaining **, and cultivates a sense of rational examination of history.
