The mountains are like the sea, and the remnant sun is like blood.
In Lujiang Shu County (Shucheng County, Lu'an City, Anhui Province), a young girl is flicking her fingers next to the guzheng.
The girl's Yayin Qingyue, combined with the small bridge and flowing water in the south of the Yangtze River, constitutes a beautiful Danqing wonderland, attracting dozens of men to stop and be reluctant to leave for a long time.
Just when everyone was listening, a handsome little guy with starry eyes and a beautiful face squeezed into the front row and laughed dryly.
Girl, you seem to have played this note by mistake," said the handsome little man, "and it should be so ......."That's right. ”
On the girl's zither, he actually started to move.
But the girl was not angry, but shy. "It's wrong again, brother Zhou, you teach me well! ”
But girl, we don't know each other," the handsome little guy shook his hair, and suddenly asked, "Could it be that you deliberately played the wrong one?" ”
The girl's face turned red all at once, and she looked as beautiful as the red glow in the sky.
Women are always very embarrassed when they are seen through their hearts.
A middle-aged butcher who was watching saw that the situation was not right, holding a knife in his left hand, grabbing the handsome guy's collar with his right hand, and shouting categorically, "Stinky boy, are you flirting with your sister?" ”
Xiao Shuai spread his hands and said, "Can't you see it?" I'm tuning the piano. ”
The girl hurriedly dissuaded, "Let go of Brother Zhou Yu!" ”
Zhou Yu? Could it be the legendary male god who has a pear blossom pressing a begonia, and no girl can stop him from smiling slightly?
Yes. He is Zhou Yu, the word Gongjin and Pingyu.
Not only is he a little too handsome, but he is also a genius producer.
The scene at the beginning of the article was later written into a poem by Li Duan, a native of the Tang Dynasty
Ming Zheng Jin Su Zhu, in front of the jade room.
If you want to get Zhou Langgu, you always flick the strings by mistake. ”
It is also the origin of the famous allusion "the song is wrong, Zhou Langgu".
Think about it, in order to let Brother Zhou take a second look, the beauties deliberately plucked the wrong strings, so be careful.
When he was young, Zhou Yu was such a man who was jealous and a woman loved to cry.
If Zhou Yu's appearance is innate, then his talent is closely related to his family.
The Zhou family has a very good background, Zhou Yu's father Zhou Yi is the mayor of the capital (Luoyang Ling), and his cousin Zhou Jing and cousin Zhou Zhong are the captains of the three princes.
Counting, Zhou Yu is an official N generation.
If in the era of peace, Zhou Yu can be a quiet beautiful man, but he was born in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, a proper troubled era.
In this kind of world, what is needed is not "abundant and handsome little fresh meat", but "scraping bones and healing real heroes".
In addition to Zhou Yu, there is also a handsome guy named Sun Ce in Jiangnan.
For a long time, although one was in Anhui and the other was in Zhejiang, they had never met, but they had long looked at each other in the rivers and lakes.
In 190 AD, when Dong Zhuo's rebellion broke out, Sun Jian (Sun Ce's father), a fierce man, led the army and settled his family in Shouchun (Hefei).
After Zhou Yu heard about it, he immediately went to Sun Ce and drank and played together.
The two hit it off at first sight, and they couldn't wait to kowtow immediately.
In order to communicate better, Zhou Yu invited Sun Ce to move directly to his house.
The hospitality of the Zhou family was very warm, and when they were pointing to the world, the relationship between the two also heated up.
It's a pity that only a year later, the fierce Sun Jian died in battle.
As the son of the grandson, Sun Ce can only come forward to preside over the overall situation.
A bigger storm was brewing in the rivers and lakes, and Sun Ce had to leave the Zhou family with his relatives.
At that time, Yuan Shu had already set his sights on Sun Ce, and he not only wanted to receive the land left by Sun Jian after his death, but also coveted the jade seal that the Sun family had picked up.
Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, a pair of good friends, have been separated from each other since then, and Zhou Yu misses this brother who is only a few months older than him.
Time is like flowing water, and in a blink of an eye, it is 195 AD.
20-year-old Zhou Yu went to visit his uncle, Danyang Taishou Zhou Shang.
In Danyang, he heard good news: Sun Ce is not far away in Liyang (Anhui and County).
At that time, Sun Ce was not doing well, Yuan Shu not only annexed the Sun family's subordinates, but also deceived the jade seal of the country.
Sun Ce is very capable of working, but his arms can't twist his thighs after all.
General Sun has won many battles, but in Yuan Shu's heart, he is not a must-have, so he is always not reused.
In a fit of anger, Sun Ce decided to pull the team on his own, so he ran to Liyang, where his uncle Wu Jing was.
Seeing Zhou Yu, Sun Ce couldn't hide his excitement.
Let's combine our swords, what can't we do? He said.
Another reason that excites Sun Ce is that the Sun family's entrepreneurship is facing a bottleneck, no one has no money, and Zhou Yu came this time with both money and people.
The two hit it off.
They led their troops to conquer Hengjiang (now southeast of Hexian County, Anhui) and Dangli (now east of Hexian County, Anhui), and then crossed the river with their troops and attacked Moling (now Moling Pass, Jiangning, Nanjing), defeating Zhenrong and Xue Li.
Subsequently, they took down Huyi (now Hushu Town, Nanjing) and Jiangcheng, entered Qu'a (now Danyang, Jiangsu), and forced Liu Miao away.
A large area of land in Anhui and Jiangsu has been surnamed Sun since then.
Zhou Yu and Sun Ce, in the battle of attacking the city and plundering the land, established an unbreakable friendship.
After forcing Liu Miao away, Sun Ce continued to crusade, while Zhou Yu temporarily returned to Danyang in the rear.
Two years later, in 197 AD, Yuan Shu, a generation of heroes, actually became emperor.
Zhou Yu has always believed that Yuan Shu is a clown who jumps off the beam. But nominally, his eldest brother Sun Ce is still Yuan Shu's subordinate.
Yuan Shu is a person who cherishes talents, he admires Zhou Yu very much, and wants to pull Zhou Yu into the gang and entrust him with important tasks.
But Zhou Yu refused.
Once, twice.
By the third time, Zhou Yu was really gracious.
Just let me be the magistrate of Juchao," he said.
Why is it a nest? Because it was the closest to his iron brother Sun Ce.
Zhou Yu also had an unexpected gain in Juchao County.
He got acquainted with another cattle man - Lu Su.
Although the two have different political views, Zhou Yu believes that Lu Su, who is 3 years older than him, is definitely a strategic wizard.
In 198 AD, seeing that Yuan Shuzhong betrayed his relatives and left, Sun Ce officially announced the severance of diplomatic relations with Yuan Shu, and Zhou Yu left Juchao as soon as possible and rushed to Jiangdong with Lu Su.
Reunited with Zhou Yu again, Sun Ce was infinitely emotional.
In fact, everyone knows that without Zhou Yu's money and soldiers at the critical moment, there would be no career of the Sun family today.
In other words, half of the shares of the Jiangdong regime are actually Zhou Yu's.
Because they thought that the political alliance and brotherly relationship were not stable enough, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce simply married the two sisters Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao after breaking through Wancheng and became brothers-in-law.
You have me, I have you, kiss and kiss.
That year, Zhou Yu was 24 years old.
In terms of career and love, it can be called a double harvest.
In this regard, Su Dongpo, a thousand years later, was also envious and openly wrote-
Thinking about Gongjin back then, Xiao Qiao got married for the first time, and he was heroic! ”
So, is this the pinnacle of Zhou Yu's life?
No, it's just a small dirt slope.
His brilliant life has just begun.
In front of the sharp-edged Sun Ce, Zhou Yu's light was always dimmer.
However, unexpectedly, in just one year, the situation changed abruptly - Sun Ce was stabbed to death.
When he died, the sky in Jiangdong was about to fall.
The ** person designated by Sun Ce is not Sun Kuang, the fourth brother who is most like him, but the second brother Sun Quan, who is relatively weak and old and defeated.
The Jiangdong regime, which had just IPOed, almost fell directly when it encountered this news.
At this critical moment, Zhou Yu rushed from Baqiu, knelt down in front of Sun Quan for the first time, and declared in a high-profile manner
The boss Sun Ce is gone, and Sun Quan will be our new boss in the future! ”
It was precisely with Zhou Yu's high-profile statement that Jiangdong's proud soldiers and fierce generals were all obedient.
But this does not mean that Sun Quan has secured the position of boss, because external challenges have just begun.
In 208 AD, after cleaning up the northern princes, Cao Cao began to move south, first against Jingzhou, and then against the Sun family in Jiangdong.
In the face of the aggressive Cao Cao, Jiangdong became a mess again, after all, Cao Cao's cruelty is known to the world.
The Jiangdong Group has few soldiers, and its only reliance may be the Yangtze River.
But will the Yangtze River be able to stop Cao Cao's attack? In this regard, even Sun Quan himself does not believe it.
However, Zhou Yu firmly believes that on the Yangtze River, he is absolutely capable of overturning Cao Cao.
Regarding the Battle of Chibi, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is vivid and wonderful.
In this famous work, Zhuge Kongming's wisdom and martial arts are particularly highlighted: the method of agitating generals, tongue fighting group Confucianism, grass boats borrowing arrows, borrowing east wind, and fire attack ......
Everything seems to be directed by Zhisheng Zhuge Liang, and Zhou Yu and Dongwu are just dead and have picked up a big bargain.
In fact, historians have been arguing over the years that Zhou Yu was the real king of the Battle of Chibi.
Their reason was that Liu Bei's side actually contributed only 300 people to the frontal battlefield of the Battle of Chibi, and they hid their main force.
In the face of hundreds of thousands of Cao Cao's army, Zhou Yu was confident, if he had no bottom in his heart about land warfare, he was full of confidence in water warfare.
Because, there are 30,000 well-trained sailors in Eastern Wu, and Cao Cao's side is basically landlubbers.
When the war began, Zhou Yu chose to attack with fire, and after a frenzied burning, "the strong captives were wiped out". (10,000 words omitted here).
Cao Cao, who was once invincible, was defeated quickly and completely.
In this battle, he has been selected as the "Top 10 Classic Battles in Human History" many times.
In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Zhou Yu is a smart and narrow-minded person.
The story that was handed down later is that Zhuge Liang was angry with Zhou Yu several times and damaged Zhou Shuai's body.
Is there such a thing?
Probably not. At that time, Zhou Yu was the military commander of Eastern Wu, while Zhuge Liang was just Liu Bei's military advisor and had no military power.
Luo Guanzhong wrote that, just to elevate Zhuge Liang and belittle Zhou Yu.
Teacher Zhou Yu really doesn't have such a small belly, it's time to make a name for him.
After the Battle of Chibi, Zhou Yu became the brightest star, and the limelight overshadowed the boss Sun Quan.
During the war, Sun Quan handed over almost all the military power of the Sun Wu group to Zhou Yu, and it would be a lie to say that Sun Quan did not play the drum in his heart.
Although the war is not very good, Sun Quan has a set of politics.
The commander of the Battle of Chibi is Zhou Yu, which is true, but the deputy commander must be Cheng Pu, who is more trusted by the Sun family.
In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Cheng Pu is the elder of the Sun family and ranks first in the "Tiger Ministers of Jiangbiao", but by Zhou Yu's side, he has always played the role of "pig teammate".
partnered with Zhou Yu for the first time, Cheng Pu put on his old qualifications, raised the bar in public, and even insulted Zhou Yu many times.
In the battle of Nanjun, Cheng Pu, the deputy on the surface and the actual supervisor, was like an invisible man and had no sense of existence.
Even in some key decisions, Cheng Puming secretly stumbled, so that Zhou Yu, whose strength was obviously beyond a large margin, could only tie with Cao Ren, and once caused Zhou Yu, who was prominent in the front, to be hit by an arrow in the right rib and was seriously injured.
In addition to personnel arrangements and strategic decision-making, Boss Sun also made Zhou Yu crazy.
Zhou Yu is a typical hawk, whether it is Cao Cao or Liu Bei, he firmly believes that Liu Bei's big fool is not a reliable ally.
He once proposed to Sun Quan to "simply cut off Liu Bei and annex his army."
But this proposal, Boss Sun neatly rejected it.
After that, Zhou Yu proposed: send troops to Sichuan and occupy Yizhou. As a result, this plan was inexplicably shelved by Sun Quan.
In 210 AD, Zhou Yu once again proposed to Boss Sun to send troops to Sichuan, and repeatedly showed Sun Quan his heart: there are no two hearts.
Sun Quan finally handed over the military power to Zhou Yu again, but it was too late.
When Zhou Yu led his troops to Baqiu (present-day Yueyang, Hunan), he suddenly fell ill and died at the age of 35.
The death of Zhou Dudu actually has nothing to do with Zhuge Liang.
Although he was wounded in the Battle of Nanjun, the real fatal wound should have come from Sun Quan, who did not trust him very much.
Perhaps this is the will of God: God not only gave him unparalleled beauty, but also gave him unparalleled talent.
Zhou Yu, who is so good, finally made God himself jealous.
If Zhou Yu lived a few more years, there would definitely not be three kingdoms.
On stage, only two superpowers remained: Wei and Wu.
