Zhao Yun, Zi Long and Chang Shan are real people. During the Three Kingdoms period, the famous Shu soldier followed Liu Bei to participate in a series of foreign wars, and was one of the generals of the Five Tigers. It can be said that Zhao Yun, as a general of Shu Han, has made great contributions to the establishment of the Western Shu regime. In the history of the three kingdoms, it left a rich and colorful stroke.
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhao Yun was an excellent military commander. He once killed seven men in and seven men out in Changbanpo, but when he was besieged by thousands of people in Xia Houmao, he said, "My life is over." Today, we will take the romance of the Three Kingdoms as a model to analyze Zhao Yun.
According to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Chapter 41 describes:
Zhao Yun happeneth four generals, and Cao Jun swarmed together. Yunnai drew his green sword and slashed it. Hands up, Jiaping, blood like a spring. Kill all the generals and go straight to the encirclement.
At that time, Zhao Yun was holding a green sword and hugging Dou. Ride alone, kill seven in and seven out. Facing thousands of Cao Jun, we can see his bravery and loyalty. Not the kui is a real tiger.
The battle of Changbanpo was the battle of Zhao Yun's fame. From then on, everyone knows this young warrior with a white horse and a silver gun. Liu Bei also valued his bravery and contribution to the protection of Liu Chan. From then on, Zhao Yun entered the top of Shu Han and became Liu Bei's right-hand man, which made people lament. It was Zhao Yun's outstanding performance in the battle of Changbanpo that repelled the menacing Cao Jun and protected Liu Bei's retreat.
According to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms:
In the Battle of Mount Tai, Zhao Yun beheaded several generals of Cao Wei. You know, Zhao Yun was seventy years old at that time, and he was still in his prime in the confrontation with the enemy generals. Han Ying, Han Qiong and Han Qi were killed one after another, and Han Yao was captured alive, which is a real Iliad.
In the face of the menacing Zhao Yun, Xia Houmao obviously has no good way but to lead the army. At this time, Cheng Wu, who joined the army, suggested that Xia Houmao should command the army on the mountain and lure Zhao Yun into the encirclement, thus killing Zhao Yun. Zhaoyun gets the recruit, leads the army into the encirclement of Jun, Xia Houmao is only in the mountains, but Zhaoyun still fails to break through, and exclaims that "my life is over".
In fact, in the battle of Changbanpo, Zhao Yun can kill seven in and seven out. It is precisely because boss Cao likes talents too much that he ordered the army not to shoot arrows in order to capture Zhao Yun alive. You know, this bow and arrow can be said to be one of the most important weapons in ancient wars. If there is no bow and arrow, then there is no long-range force suppression. Besides, in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, many military commanders with high martial arts were killed by bows and arrows. For example, Dian Wei, Cao Cao's personal bodyguard, an ancient E-Lai, was shot dead by the Zhang Xiu army with random arrows.
In my opinion, bows and arrows had a great influence on ancient wars. After all, as one of the few weapons that can cause long-range killing, its suppression of military commanders can be said to be innate. In the battle of Changbanpo, Cao Cao ordered not to shoot arrows, which was also one of the reasons why Zhao Yun was killed seven times.
In the Battle of Mount Mount, Xia Houmao obviously didn't capture Zhao Yun alive. According to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, "the army is approaching on all sides, and no one is advancing." It can be seen that Xia Houmao's army put an arrow at that time to stop Zhao Yun from being killed. And zhaoyun is really affected by this, and failed to rely on their own strength to break through.
In addition to the influence of bows and arrows, Zhao Yun's age also made him behave differently in the Battle of Mount and the Battle of Changbanpo. At the battle of Changbanpo, Zhao Yun was still young and in his prime. So I can break through the siege of Cao Cao. In the Battle of Mount Mount, Zhao Yun was seventy years old. Although he killed one military commander after another, he showed his bravery. However, compared with his youth, his strength and courage are not as good as before. No wonder he finally failed to break through the besieged Xia Houmao army.
In addition, in the battle of Changbanpo, Zhao Yun was alone. With Dou in his arms, his goal is relatively small, which is beneficial for him to break through and leave. As long as the power is strong enough, it is easy to break through. In the Battle of Mount Mountain, besides ensuring his breakthrough, Zhao Yun was also the commander-in-chief of an army. When he was surrounded, there were more than 1000 Shu soldiers around him.
If Zhao Yun abandoned them and broke through alone, it would be easier for him to be brave. But as a military commander, he could not abandon his foot soldiers, so Zhao Yun led the army to break through. It's much more difficult. No wonder, facing the siege of Xia Houmao, the general of Cao Wei, he sighed "My life is over". From this point of view, it is not difficult to wonder.
Among the military commanders of the Three Kingdoms, Zhao Yun is excellent in character and ability, but how to treat Zhao Yun's performance differences in the Battle of Mount and the Battle of Changbanpo?
