Cao Cao defeated Huarong Dao, who did Cao Cao meet in the last level of Huarong Dao?

Cao Cao met Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang in Huarong Road.

In the first battle of Chibi, Zhou Yu set fire to Cao Cao's 830,000 horses, and the heavy equipment was buried and discarded, and he was defeated all the way.

In the Jingzhou territory, he was robbed and killed by Liu Bei's ambush soldiers, and Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei won a lot. Cao Cao Cao Mengde fled to Huarong Dao, and when he saw that there were no ambushes here, he couldn't help laughing, and I would not die in the sky. As soon as the words fell, Guan Yu and Guan Yun led 500 school swordsmen to kill the generals.

Cao Cao couldn't help but be frightened, at this time, his advisers suggested that Guan Yunchang was a person who valued affection and righteousness, and the lord and the old man persuaded him with great affection, Cao Cao listened to his words, and treated Guan Yunchang with affection in the past, saying that Guan Yu was moved and escaped.

Official Faith. The emperors of all dynasties used Guan Yu as the embodiment of loyalty and righteousness, and became the material for educating the patriotic beliefs of loyal monarchs.

In the third year of Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty (1725), the imperial court issued an order to take the Guandi Temple as the martial temple and merge it into the ceremony. Since then, Guan Yu has become the main god of the state sacrifice, reaching a position on a par with the sage Confucius.

After Cao Cao captured Jingzhou, he directly led his troops south to attack Sun Quan and Liu Bei.

However, the Sun-Liu alliance used fire to break through Cao Cao's iron cable ship, which caused Cao Cao to be caught off guard, so he could only withdraw his troops from Huarong Road and flee in a hurry.

Cao Cao's defeat of Huarong Dao is "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

In the important chapter, ** wrote Zhuge Liang.

It was already calculated that Cao Cao would retreat from Huarong Dao, but he watched the sky at night and saw that Cao Cao's life would not be extinct, so La Zhaokong sent Guan Yu, who owed Cao Cao a favor.

Go to guard Huarong Road.

Cao Cao really did the same as Zhuge Liang expected, that is, he retreated from Huarong Dao, and laughed at Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu here very arrogantly.

I didn't expect to retreat from here, and I didn't even set up an ambush. Then after laughing, he saw Guan Yu waiting for him in front.

Cao Cao had no power to resist after several days of defeat, so he begged Guan Yu to let him go, and Guan Yu remembered the past and let Cao Cao go back to Jiangling.

Here the author wrote this to highlight Zhuge Liang's clever calculations and Guan Yu's righteousness, but in fact, Cao Cao did not encounter Guan Yu's interception when he passed through Huarong Dao. In the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

It was written: "The public ship was burned for the preparation, and the army was led back from Huarong Road, but it was muddy, the road was impassable, and the sky was windy. The soldiers were swept away by the men and horses, and they were trapped in the mud, and many died.

Here it is written that Cao Cao blindly walked Huarong Road because he burned the warship and could only go by land. The biggest difficulty was that the road was not easy to walk, but there was no ambush.

Cao Cao. Choose from Huarong Road.

In fact, a big reason for escaping was that at that time, there was no other suitable way to escape except this road. First of all, let's talk about the Battle of Red Cliffs.

I believe that all of us should be familiar with it, the battle of Chibi mainly took place on the plain of Jianghan, from the point of view, the northwest direction of the Jianghan Plain is mainly some mountain ranges, such as Bashan and Qinling.

In the north is also the Dabie Mountain Range. Therefore, if Cao Cao wanted to escape at this time, the best way was to return the same way, simply put, he needed to return to Jiangling first, then to Xiangyang, and then to the Central Plains north.

Secondly, Jiangling is also a very important place for Cao Cao, which is Sun Wu.

In the base camp, Sun Wu also hoarded a lot of grain and grass in Jiangling. In ancient times, if you want to make the war more durable and successful, grain and grass are an indispensable part, so under the circumstances at that time, Cao Cao also had to return to Jiangling to replenish the army with grain and grass, so that it could also better stabilize people's hearts.

But if Cao Cao returns to Jiangling, there are only two ways to choose, namely water and land, because everyone should know that Cao Cao was in the Battle of Chibi, his warships have been burned, so Cao Cao has no boat to ride. Therefore, when Cao Cao returned to Jiangling, he could only choose to return by land, which was also the fastest way to return to Jiangling. However, when Cao Cao returned to Jiangling by land, he would inevitably pass through Huarong Road.

In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Huarong Road is also described in China, it is very difficult and dangerous, and it is a big swamp with a lot of mud, in fact, this is also to make the plot more thorny and stupid, and in many TV series, Huarong Road will also be depicted as a very narrow mountain road. But in real life, Huarong Road is not a narrow mountain road, but a relatively flat swamp road, and there are not many mountains on both sides, in addition, when Cao Cao escaped, it was not as unbearable as we imagined. We can also think about it, if Cao Cao was very embarrassed when he escaped, how could he still have time to burn the ship, so from this point.

It can also be seen that Cao Cao was not so embarrassed when he escaped.

Huarong Dao According to the commentary of "Zizhi Tongjian", Huarong Dao is "from this Tao to Huarong Ye". The Huarong mentioned here certainly refers to the county seat of Huarong. Huarong Road is also the route of Cao's army fleeing to Huarong County after fleeing into the border of Huarong County in the Chibi War.

The county seat of Guhuarong is near Zhoulaozui, about 60 miles north of the current Jianli county. If a straight line is drawn from Wulin, where Cao Cao cantoned his troops, to Nanjun, the destination of Cao Cao's escape, Huarong City is exactly in the center of the blocking regiment in this straight line. Cao wanted to escape back to Jiangling, and taking Huarong County was the shortest route.

Moreover, at that time, there was a grain and grass warehouse of Cao Jun near Huarong County, which was convenient for the retreating soldiers to replenish the grass.

Zhuge Liang is wise and Huarong, Guan Yunchang interprets Cao Cao", is a well-known story in the world, and a key chapter in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". **Before writing the Chibi War, Zhuge Liang calculated that Cao Cao would be defeated and go to Huarong, and watch the sky at night, Cao Cao should not be killed, considering that Cao Cao and Guan Yu were kind, so he sent Guan Yunchang to guard Huarong Dao and leave a personal favor with Guan Yu. ** He also wrote that Cao Cao was really defeated from Wulin to Huarong Dao, and laughed three times on the way Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu were not resourceful enough to set up an ambush at a dangerous place.

However, Zhao Zilong laughed with a smile, thanks to Xu Huang and Zhang He's double enemies Zhao Yun, Cao Cao was able to escape; The second laughed at Zhang Yide, and it was Zhang Liao and Xu Huang who resisted Zhang Fei, so that Cao Cao escaped again; The three smiles are not trivial, laughing out of Guan Yunchang, and on the Huarong narrow road where there is a husband in danger, coupled with Cao Jun's several blows, at this time he is unable to fight again, helpless, Cao Cao had to beg Guan Yu to let him go, Guan Yu remembered the old kindness, and explained Cao Cao, so that Cao Cao could return to Jiangling.

Huarong Dao, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has Zhuge Liang Zhihua said, talking about the Chibi battle Cao Cao defeated and retreated to Huarong Dao, Zhuge Liang expected Cao Cao's marching route, and ambushed Guan Yu in advance to block it, but Guan Yu Yi released Cao Cao to repay him for not killing him before and treating him preferentially.

Later generations have many explanations for Guan Yu's practice of letting Cao Cao go, some people say that Zhuge Liang deliberately let Guan Yu do good deeds there to make him do good deeds and fulfill his loyalty, and Cao Cao will be a prisoner or even killed if he releases others; Some people say that Cao Cao's life should not be cut off, and Yu Zhi'en is repaid; Some people also say that Liu Bei Zhuge Liang is smart, killing Cao Cao is in chaos in the world, no one in the north can form the Three Kingdoms strong, and Liu Bei's strength can't sit in the world and let others take advantage; Some people also said that it was not just to release Cao Cao, but Zhuge Liang saw that Guan Yu was not convinced by him, so he knew that he must have let Cao Cao go and come back by the way to let him confess his guilt, and took the opportunity to teach Guan Yu a lesson and let him obey himself, ** probably this is what it means.

In fact, there is no historical fact in the official history that Zhuge Liang is wise and calculated, Guan Yu released Cao Cao and so on, it is Zhou Yu who divided his troops to chase Cao Cao, and Liu Bei's group is beating the side drum to reap the fruits of victory, occupying some territory and seizing some military resources to strengthen itself. Cao Cao was chased by Wu soldiers and ran all the way, and ran to Cao Ren in Nanjun to feel at ease, and issued the famous exclamation of "If Fengxiao (Guo Jia) does not make him lonely".

It's Guan Yu. Zhuge Liang is wise and Huarong, Guan Yunchang interprets Cao Cao", is a well-known story in the world, and a key chapter in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". **Before writing the Chibi War, Zhuge Liang calculated that Cao Cao would be defeated and go to Huarong, and watched the sky at night, Cao Cao should not be killed, considering that Cao Cao and Guan Yu were gracious, so he sent Guan Yunchang to guard Huarong's disadvantages, and leave personal favors with Guan Yu to do.

** He also wrote that Cao Cao was defeated from Wulin to Huarong Road, and laughed three times on the way Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu were not resourceful enough to split Bugao, and did not set up an ambush in a dangerous place.

However, Zhao Zilong laughed with a smile, thanks to Xu Huang and Zhang He, who were both enemies of Zhao Yun, Cao Cao was able to escape;

The second laughed at Zhang Yide, and it was Zhang Liao and Xu Huang who resisted Zhang Fei, so that Cao Cao escaped again;

The three smiles are not trivial, laughing out of Guan Yunchang, and on the Huarong narrow road where there is a husband in danger, coupled with Cao Jun's several blows, at this time he is unable to fight again, helpless, Cao Cao had to beg Guan Yu to let him go, Guan Yu remembered the old kindness, and explained Cao Cao, so that Cao Cao could return to Jiangling.

Later, Guan Yu was killed by Sun Quan, and the head was handed over to Cao Cao, who made a wooden body for him.
