During the period of the Three Kingdoms, countless heroes and heroes left their footprints here. However, after the smoke cleared, they also completed their respective journeys.
Some people leave with feelings for life, some people leave with worries about the future, some people leave with loyalty to the country, and some people disappear into the long river of history with deep grievances.
Today, let's explore the 5 most unjust generals in the Three Kingdoms period.
1.Lu Xun's failure stemmed from Sun Quan's lack of principle. Sun Quan was the father of seven sons, most of whom were half-born. Sun Quan went from being king to emperor, until the year before his death, and he did not canonize a queen for thirty years.
In this way, there is no distinction between concubines and concubines, which means that there is no difference between respect and inferiority between sons. Thus, as Sun Quan grew older, the sons began to develop a desire for the throne because they were nominally fair play.
As a result, two forces were formed, the "third son" Sun He and the "fourth son" Sun Ba. However, this is not a democratic election, but a political struggle, and Lu Xun is one of the victims.
The former "battle for succession" is familiar to everyone. In this "dispute between the two palaces", which is full of scheming, suspicion, and treachery, the relationship between Sun Quan's father and son is becoming increasingly tense, and Lu Xun is involved.
In the end, under Sun Quan's repeated persecution, Lu Xun couldn't bear it and ended up depressed, ending in tragedy. Looking back on Lu Xun's death, there is another reason - the merit is high.
Lu Xun has made many military exploits for Eastern Wu throughout his life, Cao Wei and Shu Han are in awe of him, and in his later years, Sun Quan is becoming more and more mediocre, and his suspicion is getting worse and worse, and he is afraid that Lu Xun will snatch away the Eastern Wu that he has worked hard to manage in the future, so when he was in the battle for the prince, he took the opportunity to get rid of the stone in his heart.
It can be said that Lu Xun was forced to death by Sun Quan, and his death was exactly the same as what happened to Han Xin. When Sun Quan came to his senses, but it was too late to recover, he wept bitterly and said to Lu Xun's son: "I listened to slander before, made mistakes, and doubted your father, I'm so sorry!" ”
1.Lu Xun once attacked with fire, making Liu Bei fall ill in the White Emperor City, but in the end he was defeated by his own men, this historical story is still regrettable. 2.Guan Yu upheld righteousness all his life, but died because of the injustice of others.
Spoken"The fire burned the camp for 800 miles", I have to mention that Liu Bei insisted on killing Wu in order to avenge Guan Yu's revenge. And Guan Yu, as one of the most unjustly killed famous generals during the Three Kingdoms period, was once unstoppable, defeating Cao Wei's Seventh Army and shocking the world.
However, Dongwu treacherously attacked Guan Yu secretly, causing him to lose Jingzhou, defeat Maicheng, and finally be beheaded in Linfang, which is distressing.
Guan Yu was a loyal man who was captured by Cao Cao in his early years. Cao Cao respected him very much and tried to impress him, including hosting banquets, giving him gold and silver, and even asking for credit from the imperial court for him.
Although Guan Yu was grateful to Cao Cao, he always adhered to the principle of "the owner does not forget his roots", saying that as long as he knew Liu Bei's whereabouts, he would definitely look for him without hesitation.
In the Battle of the White Horse, Guan Yu assassinated Yan Liang and Wen Chou, repaying Cao Cao's kindness. However, this righteous man eventually died of the "injustice" of others, which is very lamentable.
Cao Cao deeply deplored Guan Yu's death, so he held a grand funeral and asked the civil and military officials of Luoyang to pay their respects.
Some people are dead, but they are still alive in our hearts. "Behind Meng Da's death is the duel of three "immortals" - Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi and Lu Xun.
This event is full of well-thought-out stratagems, so let's dive in. In fact, Guan Yu's beheading was related to Meng Da. At that time, Guan Yu had asked Meng Da and Liu Feng for help, but neither of them liked Guan Yu, so they refused to send troops, which eventually led to Guan Yu being trapped in Jiangdong.
When Liu Bei heard the news of Yun Chang's death, he was filled with grief and indignation, and immediately ordered Liu Feng to be executed. Although Meng Da survived, he was worried that there would be danger in the future, so he led his subordinates to defect to Cao Wei overnight.
In the Wei state, Meng Da was given a cold reception, and Wei Chen believed that he was not sincere in surrendering, so he needed to be vigilant at all times. However, there are three people who don't think so. One is Cao Pi, who thinks Meng Da is a general; There are two more, which are his friends Huan Jie and Xiahou Shang.
However, when the three people who supported him died one after another, Mengda's situation began to deteriorate, and that feeling of danger returned. At this moment, he received a letter from Li Yan, an old friend of Shu.
In the White Emperor City that year, Liu Bei appointed Zhuge Liang and Li Yan as ministers of Tuogu.
Meng Da received Li Yan's letter, and after being grateful, he decided to return to Shu. However, he hesitated in his heart, because it was not trivial to throw himself into Shu. At this time, Cao Wei joined the army and came to visit, saying that Cao Rong had summoned him in Luoyang.
Meng Da was shocked, suspecting that the matter of their letter had been informed. However, this news strengthened his decision, and he decided to return to Shu and conspire with Li Yan and Zhuge Liang.
Munda showed his wisdom and cunning in the face of possible dangers. He made the most of his geographical location and political resources, while also waiting for his moment. However, Kong Ming saw through his mind and took urgent measures to frustrate Meng Da's plan.
This story teaches us that wisdom and strategy are important, but it is even more important to be able to see the situation clearly and respond in a timely manner in order to gain a foothold in a complex political environment.
Meng Da received a letter from Sima Yi, in which Sima Yi told Meng Da that he was very angry that rumors had been spread that Meng Da was going to rebel recently. Sima Yi thought that this was Zhuge Liang's ploy, and he wanted to destroy Meng Da's relationship with Great Wei.
Sima Yi recalled Meng Da's abandonment of Liu Touwei, and he greatly appreciated Meng Da's loyalty. However, the people of Shu held a grudge against Meng Da and tried to sabotage his relationship with Great Wei.
After Meng Da read the letter, he realized that the emperor's previous misunderstanding was just a misunderstanding. At this point, Meng Da fell into hesitation and didn't know how to deal with the situation.
Kong Ming again sent a letter urging Meng Da to defect to Shu and warning him that Sima Yi's true intention was to destroy him. Meng Da disagreed, believing that it would take Sima Yi a month to attack him and strengthen the city's defenses.
However, eight days later, Meng Da was surprised to find Sima Yi standing under the city, a distance of 1,200 miles from Wancheng to Xincheng, and Sima Yi's speed of movement seemed to fall from the sky.
Meng Da immediately asked Zhuge Liang and Lu Xun for help, but Sima Yi was fully prepared, and the armies of Shu and Wu were intercepted halfway. As a result, Meng Da was beheaded after the city was broken, and Sima Yi returned to Luoyang with his head.
Analysis] Meng Da thinks that he is a "praying mantis", but he doesn't realize that even if the "Yellow Sparrow" is thousands of miles away, he can sneak up on him day and night and sneak up on him from behind.
The relationship between Taishou Shenyi and Meng Da of Weixing County has always been discordant, and he has always been the one who complained. Zhuge Liang believed: "If Meng Da is still alive, he will definitely not become Wei Chen; If Meng Da died, then he would also disperse the forces of Cao Wei's middle road.
All this is to take Longxi as a starting point, go all the way forward, crusade against the Central Plains, and restore the Han family! Lu Xun said regretfully: "It's a pity that Soochow didn't get the benefits of the fisherman." ”
Sima Yi planned: "First appease him, then make a sudden move, and finally kill him." Kong Ming and Lu Xun, I, Sima Zhongda, want to show my strength first. ”
4.Zhang He, Sima Zhongda's doubts: Sima Yi's Meng Da killing showed Zhuge Liang and Lu Xun his strength, and this happened before Zhuge Liang's first Northern Expedition.
During the Fourth Northern Expedition of Shu Han, Sima Yi did another thing, which was later regarded as one of the mysteries of the Three Kingdoms and related to Zhang He's death. Zhang He posed a major threat to Zhuge Liang.
In the first Northern Expedition, the situation was very good, but due to Zhang He's breakthrough of Jieting and Ma Tan's incompetence, the Shu army's grain and grass were cut off and forced to retreat. In the three Northern Expeditions that followed, Kong Ming was also repeatedly defeated by Zhang He, and Shu Han was deeply afraid of him.
When the Shu army and the Wei army confronted each other, the old problem of the Shu army reappeared - the lack of food and grass (this time it was Li Yan's fault), so the army had to be withdrawn. At this time, Zhang He pursued the Shu army with 2,000 soldiers, but was ambushed at Mumen and was hit by a hundred arrows.
So, who asked Zhang He to pursue the Shu army? Only the Grand Governor Sima Yi had this power.
According to the Art of War, one should not pursue an enemy who has fled, and Kong Ming has studied this well and is good at setting ambushes, so he should not pursue the Shu army. Even if you want to pursue, you shouldn't send a general like Zhang He to go.
According to historical records, Zhang He once advised Sima Yi not to pursue, but Sima Yi insisted on his opinion. Although Zhang He was opposed, he could only obey because of the military orders. Therefore, later generations speculated that Sima Yi may have used the name of Zhuge Liang to get rid of Zhang He.
This speculation is based on the historical events of the Gaopingling Rebellion and the usurpation of Cao Wei by the Sima family. It is believed that Zhang He was loyal to Cao Wei all his life and had a high reputation, and if Sima Yi did not get rid of him, he might pose a threat to the Gao Pingling Rebellion.
However, what the truth is, only Sima Zhongda himself knows.
Wei Yan - unjustly killed Shu Han, misreported by "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" During the Fifth Northern Expedition of Shu Han, Zhuge Liang died of illness in Wuzhangyuan, and civil strife broke out in the army, and Wei Yan, the first general of Shu State, was killed.
However, Wei Yan's death was not due to his own rebellion and was killed by his own people, but because of the distortion of history by the ** "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Mr. Luo's Wei Yan is portrayed as wanting to rebel before his death, so Zhuge Liang made a plan to get rid of Wei Yan in advance before he died.
Although "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is more interesting and easy to read, and it is widely circulated, the fact that Wei Yan is not a thief has always existed to this day.
According to the record of "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms: The Biography of Wei Yan", Zhuge Liang secretly arranged with Yang Yi, Fei Yi, and Jiang Wei before his death. Among them, Wei Yan was ordered to break the queen, while he himself strongly opposed the withdrawal of the army and expressed his reluctance to break the queen for Yang Yi.
Subsequently, Wei Yan and Fei Yi reached a consensus and asked Fei Yi to jointly send troops with him. However, this does not mean that Wei Yan has the heart to surrender to Cao Wei. In the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms", Chen Shou once clearly pointed out: "Yuan (Wei) Yanyi does not surrender to Wei in the north and returns to the south, but wants to eliminate the killing instrument and so on." ”
