Is the death of Lv Fengxian's "White Gate Tower" related to his moral level?

Today, most people criticize two moral stains. One is the "repetition" of mercenary, which I have said a lot, and the other is "lewdness".

In the excerpts of Romance of the Three Kingdoms in the last program, Lu Bu once asked "Do I treat the general well?" It was Hou Cheng who was talking. Historically, Cao Cao answered it himself.

The original words in "Hero" are:

Bu said, Mao said, "Be kind to the generals. When in danger, the generals will always turn against Bu Er." Mao said, "You love the general's wife behind your back. Why are you so good? "BuMoran.

Translated, Lu Bu told Cao Cao that I was very kind to my men, but they all defected when they were in trouble. Cao Cao hurt him, and you still cheated on your daughter-in-law's wife, licking your face and saying that you are generous to others? Lyu3 bu4 also have no words.

Of course, before he stole Dong Zhuo's maid-in-waiting, this episode, when talking about the History of the Three Kingdoms, the predecessor of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, conjured up the story of a peerless beauty, Diusim, and gave her a name-Ren Hongchang, which can be traced back to the Yuan Dynasty drama Jinyuntang. She has a nose and eyes, and even her native place has been arranged.

In fact, these are all fake. Of course, people often say that folklore is more reliable than official records. This kind of rhetoric is very common and has a strong local flavor. It is precisely because of the lack of understanding of the background of population migration. We should know that from the late Han Dynasty to the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, large-scale regional population extinction and migration have occurred many times, and there are countless small-scale immigrants.

To put it bluntly, few people can confirm where the ancestors of 1800 years ago came from. Do you really think that the folklore you heard came from your ancestors? In fact, most of the cultural traditions we are familiar with today were formed at the earliest time, and will not exceed the Jiaqing and Daoguang years of the Qing Dynasty, that is, 200 years ago.

Therefore, without the story of Diusim, there would naturally be no serial stratagem, and there would be no story of Guan Yu's attempt to behead Diusim. Instead, there will be a story about Guan Yu asking Du Fu.

This Du Xing is the wife of Lu Bu's Ministry of Qin. When Liu Bei besieged Pi under the leadership of Cao Cao, Qin went out for help. Guan Yu asked Cao Cao to marry Du Xing, but he couldn't. He also asked for it many times. Cao Cao thought Du Xing was extremely beautiful, so he met Du Xing after he laid the city of Pi, but he didn't give it to Guan Yu, so he took it himself.

This matter can be found in Chunqiu, Biography of Xian Di and Huayang National Records of He Wei, and so are the records. It can be seen that everyone has a love of beauty, but Cao Cao has not done it. Therefore, Ji Shu said:

Feather heart is uneasy.

Huayang National Records says:

Therefore, feathers are often afraid.

This kind of mentality, it is no wonder that after Guan Yu demoted Cao Cao, he and Cao Cao could not pee in a pot after all. He just did what he left, and he had face. After all, he didn't lose the demeanor of a righteous man in the world.

Then, the question is, how do you know that Qin's wife has a "different color", that is, a stunning beauty?

There is a record in the history books, see the biography of the Three Kingdoms:

My late Lord made peace with Lu Bu and returned his wife. The late Lord sent Guan Yu to guard Pi. The late Lord was still young, and there were more than 10,000 soldiers in the compound.

Translated, Liu Bei asked Lu Bu to surrender, and Lu Bu returned all his wife and family. Later, Liu Bei asked Guan Yu to guard Pi, and he went back to Xiaopei himself, and assembled more than 100000 troops.

The problem is that Lu Bu has the next Pi, and Guan Yu was sent by Liu Bei to Lu Bu. Is that weird?

It is likely that Lu Bu appointed Guan Yu as the prefect of Xiapi and took a hostage in his own hands, or that Lu Bu asked Liu Bei to hand over some of his troops to himself as a vassal. Judging from Guan Yu's official position, he should have really entered the ranks of 2000 stones at this time.

Therefore, it is precisely because Guan Yu stayed here for a long time that he can understand the beauty of Qin's ex-wife Du Fu, but Cao Cao beat him to it.

In this respect, lewdness, Cao Cao and Guan Yu are inevitable after all, and they are not a stain. The real problem is that Cao Cao pointed out that Lu Bu was having an affair with the generals' wives and concubines. This behavior is quite similar to that of a warlord named Zhang in modern times, which is really disgraceful.

However, even so, warlord Zhang's control over the army is very strict. Even though he has been abroad for many years, he still maintains a complete organizational system. However, after being besieged by Cao Cao's army for three months, Lu Bu was still captured by the headquarters. It can be seen that the moral stain in this respect is not so immediate, and it is far from generous and affordable to send money to mercenaries.

Lyu3 bu4' s real problem lies in six words:

Can't control his party.

This problem was not discovered by Xuzhou, but was determined by the warlord nature of the military organization after he started in Yanzhou.

It is a common problem in our traditional historical theory that the loser is said to have a low IQ. Many factors are complicated, but the ancients often attributed them to intelligence, morality and even fate, which is actually a kind of laziness in thinking.

For example, Lu Bu, after entering Yanzhou, went straight to Puyang, but did not occupy Dongping country as Cao Cao said, and cut off his father and Mount Tai to ambush Cao Cao who was withdrawing from Xuzhou. The fundamental reason is that Cang Hong, the Soochow satrap appointed by Yuan Shao, was stationed in Dongwu Yang, and he was nailed to the north bank of the Yellow River.

Lu Bu marched eastward, besieged Juan City of Cao Cao, and then returned to Puyang, the eastern county. Geographically speaking, it is separated from Yuan Shao by the Yellow River and backed by Zhangmiao in Chenliu County. If Lu Bu left Fan County and Dong 'e behind and went straight to Dongping, that would be the real situation of shooting fish in a barrel.

But this turtle became Lu Bu himself.

After that, the offensive and defensive war in Puyang lasted for more than 100 days. Because of the plague of locusts, the grain of both sides has been withdrawn. Judging from Yu Xun's advice to Cao Cao in Biography of the Three Kingdoms, Shicheng County, where Cao Cao's Li Dian family was stationed, had already moved eastward to Xuzhou. As a result, Yu Xun dismissed the idea and continued to fight hard with Lu Bu.

This shows that there is no problem in the strategic choice of Lu Bu and Chen Gong Group, except that Cao Cao's team is more stable than Yanzhou Allied Forces and has fewer mistakes.

The remaining Juancheng, Dong 'e and Fansancheng of Cao Cao are on the south bank of the Yellow River, surrounded by Yuan Shao. After spending Lu Bu in the middle of Yanzhou, it is equivalent to starting a second business, sweeping from west to east. At this time, Lu Bu and Chen Gong obviously failed to integrate with Yanzhou's local strongmen, satrap and state, and were then carved up by Cao Cao.

This is Cheng Yu's evaluation:

Bubu, rough and widowed, just and thick, the male ear of a man. Palace, etc. Invincible. Although there were many soldiers, they achieved nothing in the end.

Notice that two allusions are used here.

Rough madness and little love can be found in "Huai Nan Zi Human Training", and it is said that "Zhi Bo" killed by Han, Wei and Zhao is careless and arrogant.

Just rude, see "Zuo Zhuan Xi Gong Twenty-seven Years". It is said that the commander-in-chief of Chu Army in the battle of Chengpu was quoted as saying:

Yu Zi is just rude and can't rule the people. After 300 times, you can't get in.

In other words, Yu Zi's personality is rigid and willful, and he doesn't pay attention to etiquette. She can't govern the people and manage more than 300 personnel carriers. I'm afraid she won't come back.

The evaluation here is not that Lu Bu is stupid, but that he has defects in management ability. Zhi Bo and YuZi are the heroes of the moment, but they are flawed in personality, so they are called men of ordinary people, that is, the number one among ordinary people, rather than people who achieve great things.

Chen Gong and others can't treat him as a loyal gentleman because of the situation. Therefore, no matter how many soldiers there are, nothing can be achieved. This situation has not changed until Xuzhou. Chen Gong and Seibel are at odds, and they are still fighting three times and four times. In the end, everyone will get rid of it and die a fair death.

Evaluation of Lu Bu and Cheng Yu's "Courage of a Man" can be said to be the most appropriate. As we revealed in the last program, Lu Bu has the ability to serve people, the ability to make decisions on the battlefield, the tolerance to treat subordinates well, the courage to fight back, and the lofty ambition to climb up.

If placed in today's civilian society, it is definitely a standard template for successful people, but in a society dominated by cultural bureaucrats and nobles, he is out of place, even if he indulges himself, he will be rejected. This is his misfortune, but it is also the most lovely place of that era.
