"Choke on wine and kill Huaxiong"The fifth chapter of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"."Ordered Zhucheng to answer Cao Gong, and broke the pass to fight Lu Bu", is one of the classic chapters of **.
According to the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Yuan Shao and Cao Cao fought against Dong Zhuo in the Guandong Eighteen Road princes, and when Sun Jian marched into Bishui Pass, the vanguard defeated Huaxiong.
Le Yuanshao and Yuan Shu did not have a high evaluation of Guan Yu, thinking that Guan Yu's status was low, and he would be ridiculed if he let him go on the expedition, but they looked at him differently, so they invited Guan Yu to drink a glass of stuffy wine to celebrate Guan Yu's expedition. Guan Yu said:"Pour wine, I'll come as soon as I go. "He took out his sword from the tent, put on his harness, and after a while he came back with Hua Xiong's head, and the wine was still warm.
Guan Yu performed in front of the heroes for the first time, because the performance of the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang in front of the heroes was very good. Still"Sullen wine and slash Huaxiong"The story has never happened in history, and it was made up by Luo Guanzhong. Although the whole story is wonderful, there are at least two places that do not match the historical record.
First of all, Liu Bei may not have participated in the war against Dong Zhuo.
These are called"The princes of the Eighteenth Road fought against Dong Zhuo"The disputes came from the Song and Yuan dynasties. According to the records of the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms", the only people related to Dong Zhuo at that time were the later general Yuan Shu, the Jizhou assassin Han Fu, the Henan assassin Kong Dai, the Yanzhou assassin Liu Dai, and the Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang; Bohai Taishou Yuan Shao, Chen Liutai Shou Zhang Miao, Dongjun Taishou Qiao Mao, Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yu, Jibei Xiang Bao Xin, Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao, Changsha Taishou Sun Jian, Cao Cao and other thirteen people.
and mentioned in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"."Eighteen Road Princes"Differently, Beihai Taishou Kong Rong, Xuzhou Thorn Shi Taoqian, Xiliang Taishou Ma Teng, Beiping Taishou Gongsun Zan and Shangdang Taishou Zhang Yang did not participate in the crusade against Dong Zhuo. Xiliang Taishou Ma Teng rebelled against the imperial court in the last years of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, and did not accept peace until the third year of Chuping (192); Sun Zhan, the Taishou Gonggong of Beiping, was busy dealing with the affairs of the Wuhuan and Xianbei people; And Zhang Yang was not so much a prince at this time as a bandit.
Even in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang followed the Beiping Taishou Gongsun Zan to ask for Dong, if the Beiping Taishou Gongsun Zan did not ask for Dong, Liu Bei naturally couldn't ask for Dong. In addition, whether Liu Bei joined Gongsun Zhan's command at that time is also a question.
According to the records of the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms - Shu Shu - Biography of the First Lord", about the fifth year of Zhongping (188), Liu Bei resigned because of the cane governor's mansion, and later met the general He Jin, He Jin sent the lieutenant Guan Qiuyi to Dangyang, Liu Bei in Xiapi and the Yellow Turban Army in the fierce battle, was appointed as the commander of Xiapi County, and later served as the lieutenant of Gaotang, and was promoted to the judge of Gaotang County.
Liu Bei then went to Gongsun Zhan and was appointed as Sima of the other tribe until Gao Tang was occupied by the Yellow Turban Army. As for the time of Liu Bei's defection to Gongsun Zhan, both the Zizhi Tongjian and the Book of the Later Han Dynasty - The Biography of Liu Bei believe that it was around October of the second year of Chuping (191), two years after the Eastern Expedition.
Although the "Heroes" mentioned in the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms-Shu Shu-The Biography of the First Lord" records Liu Bei's participation in the war against Dong, there is no record in the text of the "Biography of the First Lord" and in the "Biography of Guan Yu" and "The Biography of Zhang Fei". Whether it is from the time when Liu Bei defected to Gongsun Zhan, or from the time when Gongsun Zhan did not participate in the war against Dong, the possibility of Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei participating in the war against Dong is very small, and of course it is impossible to happen"Long wine slashes Huaxiong"story.
Second, Hua Xiong was killed by Sun Jian, the Taishou of Changsha.
Although all the counties agreed to raise troops to fight against Dong Zhuo and jointly elected Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance, the process of attacking Dong Zhuo was completely different from that of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", after all, it was unrealistic to jointly attack Luoyang after forming an alliance. After all, it is unrealistic to jointly attack Luoyang after forming an alliance. In fact, the armies of the counties did not form an alliance, but attacked Luoyang in three ways.
Considering the terrain around Luoyang and the location of the princes of the Thirteenth Road, the offensive route of the coalition army was as follows: On the side of the Northern Army: Northern Army: General Yuan Shao, Governor Hannei Wang Kuang attacked from Chenggao and Mengjin, and Han Fu stayed in Yecheng and was responsible for the supply of grain and grass; On the Chinese army, Yanzhou Thorn Shi Liu Dai, Chen Liutai Shou Zhang Miao, Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao, Dongjun Taishou Qiao Mao, Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yi, Northern Hebei Taishou Bao Xin, Yuzhou Thorn Shi Cao Cao attacked from Sour Zao, and Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong Yingchuan attacked from Yeyuan. Cao Cao's henchman Bao Xin was in sour jujube, and Henan Thorn Shi Kong Duan followed Cao Cao to Yingchuan and attacked from Yuanshui; To the south, the later general Yuan Shu and Changsha Taishou Sun Jian were in Luyang and attacked from the front line of Guangcheng and Yique. There will be thousands or tens of thousands of men on both sides, with a total strength of about 200,000.
At the same time, Dong Zhuo had 100,000 troops, but he had to defend four places; General Xu Rong defended the first line of Xingyang, Chenggao and Chiyuan, Hu Jingxiong defended the first line of Yique and Guangcheng, some people defended Mengjin, and Dong Zhuo led the troops to be stationed near Luoyang as a mobile defense force. According to the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms-Book of Wu", Huaxiong was in charge of Hu Jue's southern defense at that time.
As mentioned earlier, Hua Xiong and Hu Jing led the Southern Defensive Line, and their first encounter was of course with the Southern Offensive Defensive Line led by Sun Jian and Yuan Shu. The Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms - Book of Wu - The Biography of Sun Poyu clearly records that Sun Jian led his army to fight with Dong Zhuo's army in Yuyangren, Sun Jian defeated Dong Zhuo's army, and the governor Huaxiong was beheaded.
In fact, this was a fatal mistake, because according to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Luo Guanzhong first fought with Huaxiong at Bishui Pass, and then with the allied forces of Lü Bu at Hugao Pass. In fact, Bishui Pass, Tiger Prison Pass and Chenggao Pass are the same place, but they are called differently in different historical periods.
In fact, the adaptation of this history in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is quite large. I think the role of Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Sun Jian should be highlighted to lay the foundation for the future three-point world, so the credit for unifying all the princes is attributed to Cao Cao (formerly Qiao Mao, the Taishou of Eastern Wu), and the credit for beheading Huaxiong is attributed to Guan Yu (formerly Sun Jian, the Taishou of Changsha), and Sun Jian's credit is somewhat diluted! His credit is only left to break Luoyang, and the credit of the other princes is relatively secondary.
