After the death of Cao Cao and Liu Bei, why could Sun Quan still not be able to unify the Three King

Mondo History Updated on 2024-03-06

When it comes to the heroes of the Three Kingdoms period, I think Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Quan. These three people are the most well-known to everyone, among which Cao Cao became the earliest, he unified the northern part of the Central Plains and swept the princes of the world, including princes with outstanding strength like Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, and fierce generals like Lu Bu, all of whom were conquered by Cao Gong. However, Cao Cao still had something that could not be conquered, and the years were unforgiving, and Cao Cao died in Luoyang in 220 AD.

As Cao Cao said, he conquered countless princes in his life, but only Liu Bei of Western Shu and Sun Quan of Jiangdong were not eliminated. Let's not talk about Liu Bei for the time being, let's talk about Sun Quan first. For Sun Quan's story, I believe many friends have heard of it, Sun Quan was a young man, he was not yet 19 years old at the time, and I think only those who have fought with him are qualified to comment on his ability. When Cao Cao attacked Jiangdong and was fiercely resisted by Sun Quan, Cao Cao once sighed: "Who is the opponent of the heroes in the world?" Cao Liu, give birth to a son like Sun Zhongmou"!

From the above words, it can be seen that Cao Cao definitely praised Sun Quan's talent. Sun Quan was calm in the face of trouble, and in terms of leading troops, Mr. Jia Xu also praised him for "knowing the truth and the truth", which means that Sun Quan was praised for leading the troops in a good way, and being able to know the enemy's reality and reality, just as the art of war says, "The virtual is the real, and the real is the virtual." "Sun Quan's power and military ability are definitely not weak.

In 221 AD, Liu Bei's troops sent Jiangdong to attack Sun Quan, but at this time Sun Quan appointed Lu Xun as the governor of the capital and defeated Liu Bei in Yiling. From this point, it can be seen that Sun Quan was definitely a good leader, and in 223 AD, Liu Bei died in the White Emperor City.

Through analysis, it was found that Cao Cao and Liu Bei both died in 223! The original three leaders, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan, are the only ones left, Sun Quan, and there is only one person left, so when it comes to this, there is a question. As the saying goes, it's not a hero who doesn't read the Three Kingdoms and doesn't want to be a general, it's not a good soldier! For Sun Quan, why couldn't he unify the Three Kingdoms and achieve the hegemony of eternity after the deaths of Liu Bei and Cao Cao one after another? Actually, the reason is very simple.

After Cao Cao's death, the Cao Wei group was put under the control of Cao Pi. In terms of Western Shu, it is completely controlled by Zhuge Liang. Although Cao Cao died, before he died, he had already arranged the funeral, and Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu and other military dignitaries. Not only that, but he also left one person for Cao Pi to use carefully, this person is "Sima Yi", this person is scheming, and his military talent is even more against the sky! Coupled with Cao Pi's skill, Cao Wei is definitely a hard bone, Sun Quan can't gnaw it down at all, for Xishu, before Liu Bei died, Sun Quan had just reconciled with Xishu, and he definitely couldn't do it immediately! In addition, at this time, Zhao Yun, Zhuge Liang, and Wei Yan are all the most difficult characters to deal with, and Sun Quan has no confidence to fight with the old-timers. Wait and wait, time passes, and soon Sun Quan will be old! At this time, even if you have the heart, you don't have the guts! Unless Sun Quan can be like Sima Yi and consume all the enemies, he will finally be able to win.

The reason why Sun Quan failed to unify the Three Kingdoms is just as the veteran Liao Hua said, "The wisdom is not the enemy, but the strength is less than Kou, and the use is insatiable, how can it stand?" "Maybe Sun Quan saw this and used his troops cautiously! According to historical records, after Sun Quan became emperor in 229, he participated in few wars, except for the crusade against the Wuxi barbarians, the personal conquest of Hefei New City, and the attack on Huainan, almost no wars were launched. Obviously, Sun Quan's military strength when he was alive was not enough to defeat Cao Wei, and he couldn't swallow Xishu.
