Why did Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu fail?

They do not listen to the counsel of their counsellors.

There is much help for the righteous, but little help for the unjust.

Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and there is no need to be busy with pursuing it!

Yi Zhongtian's mistake is wrong.

Yuan Shao failed for the following reasons:

1. At that time, Yuan Shao lacked top strategists, and Yuan Shao had just experienced a big victory at that time, and some people had no one in mind, so he didn't give him a frustration.

Eye. According to the meaning of the frustration at that time, the army had just experienced a big war and was already in a state of exhaustion, although it was a big victory and the morale was very good, but Cao Cao.

It's a warlord, and it can't be solved by a wave of morale.

Besides, after years of war, the territory also needs to recuperate, and all kinds of waste are waiting to be rebuilt, and then there is a big war, and the grain and grass will become a problem. Facts have proved that the reason why Yuan Shao lost was ultimately because of grain and grass.

Second, Yuan Shao has a problem with his vision of employing people, Yan Liang.

Although his martial arts are outstanding, his temperament is too impatient and he is not suitable to be the commander of one side. And Yuan Shao just led an army with Yan Liang, but he fell into the conspiracy of the Cao army, and he was in chaos and was Guan Yu.

Killed in the chaos of the army, and then Wen Chou.

also died in battle, marking the loss of the top generals of the Yuan army. will be the courage of the soldiers, the army suddenly lost all morale, and then reused Chun Yuqiong, causing this drunkard battlefield to get drunk, and was burned by the Cao army Yuan Shao's grain and grass.

3. Mistakenly believe Guo Tu, not believe Zhang He.

Zhang He was definitely Cao Wei in the later period.

The fierce general is also the main general of Cao Wei. And when the battle of Guandu.

The most critical moment, that is, Cao Cao's sneak attack on grain and grass, Zhang He's original intention was to save the grain and grass first, after all, this is all the grain and grass of the Yuan army, once the battle is lost, it will be defeated, and Yuan Shaoxin Guo Tu and Chun Yuqiong can block Cao Cao and insist on sneaking up on Cao Cao's base camp, which leads to the loss of grain and grass, and Zhang He, the only good general of the Yuan army, also surrenders to Cao Cao, which is also the most deadly.

Yuan Shao's ending

After returning to Jizhou, Yuan Shao successively put down rebellions in various places. Soon after, Yuan Shao fell ill and died on May 28 (June 28) in the summer of the seventh year of Jian'an (202).

Because Yuan Shaoping was known for his virtue and politics, when he died, the people of Hebei did not grieve without grief, and tears were shed in the alleys of the city, as if they had lost their relatives. Judge and match Yuan Shao's last orders, and take Yuan Shang as his heir. Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang attacked each other in order to compete for power and profit, and were finally broken by Cao Cao.

In the tenth year of Jian'an (205), Yuan Tan was killed, and Yuan Shang and his second brother Yuan Xi fled to Wuhuan, Liaoxi.

In the twelfth year of Jian'an (207), Cao Cao set Wuhuan in the north, and Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi were defeated in Liaodong and killed by Gongsun Kang.

Hello! I think the reasons for Yuan Shao's failure are as follows.

1. Underestimate the enemy. Yuan Shao IV and the third duke, in terms of life experience, it can be said that he was the most prominent among the princes at that time, and he was the tenth permanent servant with He Jin, which highlighted Yuan Shao's ability; It also accelerated the expansion of his heart, and there was a slight hint of no one in his eyes, Cao Cao's troops at that time were less than half of Yuan Shao's, so Yuan Shao naturally would not take Cao Cao to heart. Even if Cao Cao later coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, Yuan Shao still felt that Cao Cao just seized the opportunity, but the hard power of military strength was still quite different.

2. Indecisiveness. Yuan Shao's strategists such as Tian Feng, Xu You, Guo Tu and Feng Ji are all ghosts, when the opinions are not unified, Yuan Shao is very difficult, and sometimes as the commander of an army, he can't make a decision, but a few strategists are stirring up the situation. For example, at that time, Guo Tu advocated cutting Cao, but Tian Feng opposed it, and after several thoughts, he decided to insist on cutting Cao and put Tian Feng in prison; Xu You advocated cutting off Cao Cao's grain route, Guo Tu provoked and said that it was Xu You's treacherous plan, Xu You almost died, and as a result, Xu You surrendered to Cao, and Cao's army attacked Wuchao at night, causing the battle of Guandu to begin to turn around.

3. The issue of heirs. Yuan Shao's eldest son Yuan Tan, second son Yuan Xi, and youngest son Yuan Shangzhong, the youngest son is deeply loved, but according to the rules of the ages, it should be the elder and not the young, which made the Yuan Shao military group become superficially united, but in fact it was divided. is inconsistent with the outside world, but fights in the same room, forms a party for personal gain, attacks Cao Cao on the one hand, and has to guard against his own family members on the other.

4. Soft power. As for the soft power of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, there is no need to say more. In comparison with the commander-in-chief, Cao Cao is far-sighted, and Yuan Shao is short-sighted; In terms of strategists, everyone is unanimous to the outside world, Cheng Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia and others are resourceful, while Guo Tu, Xu You, Feng Ji and others are dwarfed; From the perspective of military generals, Xiahoudun, Zhang Liao, Xu Chu and others are all martial arts, and Yuan Shao Group in Yan Liangwen Chou was killed by Guan Yu, and I personally think that only Zhang Yiyi is left to be regarded as a famous general, and Gao Ran is not as good as the above people.

To sum up, I think the reasons for Yuan Shao's failure are mainly in the above points. Hope!

Yuan Shao mainly lost in the ability to use troops, not in politics.

In fact, Yuan Shao's policies were more suited to the social status quo of the time than Cao Cao. Cao Cao suppressed the heroes of the scholars and promoted the children of the Han family, while Yuan Shao suppressed the Han family and helped the scholars.

The mistakes in the battle of Yuan Shaoguandu are as follows.

1.Neither Xu Tu developed to defeat Cao Cao, nor did he fight quickly, but dragged out troops, and when Yuan Shao arrived at the place, Cao Cao's general Le Jin Yu Ban had already broken Yuan Shao's army, and the two fierce generals Yan Liangwen Chou were also killed by Cao Cao and lost their sharpness.

2.did not listen to the advice of frustration, and let Yan Liangwen Chou lead the army alone, so he folded two generals first.

3.did not coordinate with Liu Bei in the second battlefield, and never attacked Liu Bei on a large scale.

4.Delusional plotted to break the enemy, so he sent Han Xun to attack Xuchang, but was defeated by Cao Ren. When Cao Cao attacked Wuchao, he wanted to besiege Wei to save Zhao and attack Cao Cao's camp directly, forcing Zhang He to turn against the water.

5.Employing people and doubting them forced Xu Yu to turn against the water. There is no backwater, and there is no fire in the black nest.

6.Cao Cao is indeed powerful, and his military strategy can be called the leader of the Three Kingdoms. His subordinates are as capable as a cloud. Xun Yu, Xun You, Jia Xu, Cheng Yu, Guo Jiaxia, Hou Yuan, Cao Ren, Zhang Liaole, and Yu Ban are all geniuses in the world.

1. The economic base determines the superstructure. Yi Zhongtian said in "Three Kingdoms": "When Cao Cao's army was eating grain, Yuan Shu's troops were eating river mussels, and Yuan Shao's troops were eating mulberries.

That's enough to tell. The growth of Yuan Shao's power was based on the accumulation of nearly 200 years in Jizhou, the largest economic state of the Han Dynasty, at high speed, and there were basically no means and measures to develop the economy during his reign, and when he fought a decisive battle with Cao Cao, the foundation of his rule had been shaken.

2. Can't recognize and employ people. For a leader, you don't have to do your best in everything, but you must know how to use people, but Yuan Shao can't. He has always only relied on the popularity accumulated by the Yuan family over the years to attract talents, but it is difficult for him to let these talents give full play to their talents and get appropriate returns.

Yuan Shao and Dong Zhuo are enemies.

Yuan Shao, the original character, is a native of Ruyang, Runan. A warlord in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and one of the heroes in the late Han Dynasty. In his early years, Yuan Shao served as a lieutenant of the Central Military Academy and a lieutenant of Si Li, and once commanded the killing of eunuchs.

In the first year of the first peace, he opposed Dong Zhuo and was elected as the leader of the Kwantung Coalition Army. In the process of separating the heroes at the end of the Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao first occupied Jizhou, and then successively captured Qingqing and merged two states, and in the fourth year of Jian'an, he unified Hebei, and his power reached its peak. However, he was defeated by Cao Cao in the battle of Guandu in the fifth year of Jian'an.

In the seventh year of Jian'an, Yuan Shao died of illness after quelling the Jizhou rebellion.

Dong Zhuo, whose name is Zhongying, is a native of Lintao, Longxi, and was born in Yingchuan. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when the emperor was dedicated, the official was the Taishi, and he was named the Marquis. At the end of Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty, Dong Zhuo was recruited as Yulin Lang, and after being trapped on the bench, he was the commander of Zhang Huan's subordinates as a military Sima for Zhonglang, crusading against the Qiang people in Hanyang.

He also participated in the suppression of the Yellow Turban Uprising and the Liangzhou Rebellion, and was quite famous. In the sixth year of Zhongping, Dong Zhuo abolished the young emperor and established Liu Xie, that is, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne and arbitrarily ruled the government. In the first year of Emperor Xian's first peace, Yuan Shao united with the assassins and Taishou from all over the Kanto region, and Dong Zhuo's crusade broke out.

In the second year of Chuping, Dong Zhuo was defeated by Sun Jian and retreated to Chang'an. In the third year of the first peace, Dong Zhuo was killed by his confidant Lu Bu.

Yuan Shao did not have the vision of using people, he did not have the ability to recruit talents, and he did not use talents, which eventually led to the rebellion of the people, lack of military literacy and strategic vision, was not good at using troops, and was indecisive in many important decisions, and could not seize favorable opportunities.

It is because all the resources of their family are in the system, parasitic on the rotten roots of the Han family, he was born in a family of false Taoism, he intervened in the political struggle very early, and lost his idealism. He was particularly decisive.

Because he was arrogant, he didn't listen to the advice of others, he always insisted on going his own way, and most importantly, his military advisor betrayed and reported to Cao Jun.

Yuan Shao had only finished the battle before, the soldiers had not yet recovered, their financial resources were empty, their abilities were limited, and they did not obey the arrangements of the military advisors.

When He Jin transferred Dong Zhuo to Beijing,Bao XinIt was suggested that Yuan Shao preemptively launch an attack on Dong Zhuo.

Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms: Dong Er Yuan Liu Biography "First, the cavalry commander Taishan Bao Xin recruited troops, and it was appropriate, and the letter said Shao: Zhuo Yong Yi soldiers, there are different aspirations, this is not early, it will be made; and its initial fatigue, the attack can also be fowled. Shao was afraid of Zhuo, but he didn't dare to send it, so he returned to his hometown.
