    First of all, both had the idea of taking Yizhou, but Sun Quan suffered an accident halfway, and the road to progress was blocked by Liu Bei, coupled with the sudden death of Zhou Yu, Sun Quan had no intention of taking Yizhou, but Cao Cao failed to stop Liu Bei because he did not realize the important military status of Yizhou. <>

    1. Sun Quan's abandonment The previous Sun Quan had already planned to take Yizhou, and he crossed Liu Bei to take Yizhou directly, but Liu Bei saw through it, so he blocked the checkpoints and sealed the various passes to prevent Sun Quan's army from passing. Not only that, but he was deeply involved in the war with Cao Cao, which distracted Sun Quan, plus the road to attack and the road to the west were also blocked by Liu Bei, and Zhou Yu's sudden death in the middle, Sun Quan finally had to give up, shifted his goal, and attacked Jiaozhou. <>

    Second, Cao Cao's strategy is wrong for Liu Bei's Yizhou, Cao Cao's strategic awareness is wrong. In the face of Liu Bei's cunning and military strategic deployment, Cao Cao should have a strategic sense of prevention and prevention, but Cao Cao fell into a big pit here. Not only did he not realize the important position of Yizhou, but also became a stepping stone for Liu Bei to take Yizhou.

    Although Sun Quan's organization was unsuccessful, he had at least thought about this problem, but there were other changes that did not succeed. Cao Cao is different, not realizing the importance is a wrong judgment. In the face of Yizhou's important military position, there should be a certain sense of occupation and prevent others from seizing it, but Cao Cao was entangled with Sun Quan at this time, and he also focused on the northwest region, thinking about unifying the north, and had no intention of taking care of his backyard at home.

    even threatened to attack Zhang Lu, causing Liu Zhang of Yizhou to break off diplomatic relations with Cao Cao, giving Liu Bei a reasonable excuse to take Yizhou. <>

    In the end, Cao Cao and Sun Quan have been stuck in the war and cannot extricate themselves, but at this time, Liu Bei enjoyed the benefits of a fisherman, established his own stable country, and still kept sufficient military rations, materials and troops, and established his own Shu Han Dynasty. It can be said that Sun Quan and Cao Cao not only lost in various mistakes, but also lost in their own military strategic awareness and military strategy, otherwise, according to the powerful Cao Cao and Sun Quan, who was good at using tactics, no matter what, Liu Bei would not have been cheapened.

    Cao Cao was fighting Zhang Lu in Hanzhong at that time, and after the victory, he had no intention of destroying Shu, and personally said that "he has to return to Shu". Sun Quan was still an ally with Liu Bei at that time, and agreed with Liu Bei that he would return Jingzhou after he captured Yizhou, so Cao Cao and Sun Quan did not stop Liu Bei.

    Cao Cao was because after the defeat of Chibi, he was no longer capable of fighting, and Sun Quan was waiting for Liu Bei to take Yizhou and let him return Jingzhou.

    Oops, by the end of the year, Cao Cao and Sun Quan did not stop this river, and Liu Bei seized it for a week. Because. Liu Bei has Zhuge Liang, so he said. They. That's it. Zhuge Liang.

    Because Cao Cao and Sun Quan didn't take Liu Bei too seriously back then, they didn't expect him to be so powerful later, so they didn't pay enough attention to it at that time.

    The Eastern Wu Navy is powerful, and the land battle is far from being Cao Cao, Liu Bei's opponent, and it is more than enough to protect itself, and it is too difficult to go further.

    Sun Quan did not have the strength to unify the world, because he had relatively little contact with his military advisors, and each had his own thoughts, so it was difficult to unify the world.

    Sun Quan can kill Cao Cao, he is very powerful, but Sun Quan has no strategy and brains, so he can't dominate the world, which is far inferior to Cao Cao.

    No. Sun Quan himself has no strategy, and he is greedy for life and afraid of death, so he does not have this strength at all.

    No, Liu Bei's territory has always been the smallest.

    At that time, it was not that Cao Cao and Sun Quan didn't want to stop it, but because they were both at war at that time, there was no way to divide the troops. At the same time, Liu Zhang welcomed Liu Bei in at that time, otherwise Shu was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it would be difficult to enter.

    Because the state of the three of them at that time was like a scene of a sandpiper fighting and a fisherman profiting, Cao Cao and Sun Quan were fighting against each other at that time, and the two armies were in a scorching situation, and they had no time to worry about Liu Bei's capture of Yizhou.

    Because Liu Bei came prepared, and the two of them had not regarded Liu Bei as an opponent at this time, they didn't care so much about his behavior, so they let Liu Bei succeed.

    Because Liu Bei's strength was still relatively strong at that time, Cao Cao and Sun Quan were recuperating at that time and did not have the energy to stop it.

    Although it took Liu Bei a total of three years to capture Yizhou, Cao Cao and Sun Quan at this time did not have the ability to prevent Liu Bei from seizing Yizhou. First of all, Cao Cao can be said to be the backyard, when Liu Bei attacked Liu Zhang, Cao Cao was busy quelling some rebellions in the north and consolidating the regime he had established in the north. As for Sun Quan, he doesn't have the strength to stop it, because if he wants to send troops to Yizhou, whether it is from the waterway or from the dry road, then he must pass through Liu Bei or Cao Cao's territory, which obviously does not work.

    Because Yizhou was too far away from Cao Cao and Sun Quan, Liu Bei was able to attack the next week. Cao Cao and Sun Quan can't be beaten.

    Because they had no way to stop Liu Bei. And they also looked down on this small place, so they didn't go to stop it.

    I think it's because it's too far, followed by the Battle of Gang Chibi, and the army hasn't adjusted yet, so it didn't stop.

    Because Cao Cao and Sun Quan were already too busy to take care of themselves at this time, they had to be busy with their own affairs, so they were not distracted to stop Liu Bei.

    On the Cao Wei side, although Cao Cao was defeated in the Battle of Chibi, the loss of the soldiers and horses in his headquarters was not large, and he also occupied Nanyang, the bridgehead to the south, which was not unacceptable. However, due to the heavy losses of the Jingzhou naval army that surrendered him, Cao Cao was no longer able to go south in the short term, and the threat of Ma Chao and others in the northwest was still there, so he began to shift his strategic focus to the northwest, wanting to take the lead in unifying the north.

    On the Eastern Wu side, after the Battle of Chibi, at the suggestion of Zhou Yu, Sun Quan also wanted to seek Yizhou, but the road to attack Hanzhong through Ankang was blocked by Cao Cao, and the road to the west along the Yangtze River was blocked by Liu Bei, coupled with Zhou Yu's sudden death, Sun Quan finally gave up the plan to go west, and instead agreed to lend Nanjun to Liu Bei, thus putting Liu Bei at the forefront of the fight against Cao Cao, and he turned to send troops to attack Jiaozhou, wanting to pacify the southeast region first.

    Liu Bei took Yizhou for three years, during which Cao Cao and Sun Quan did not come to obstruct it, and the main reason was that Cao Cao and Sun Quan did not have time or enough strength to stop it during this time period.

    Let's talk about Cao Cao first, after Cao Cao's defeat in Chibi at this time, he probably knew that it was impossible to eliminate Liu Bei and Sun Quan in a short time, and instead of constantly dealing with Sun Quan and Liu Bei, it was urgent to stabilize his own power, so he was busy consolidating the northern regime and quelling the rebellion.

    Sun Quan's side at this time period is very hopeful to get rid of Liu Bei, but he doesn't have the strength, if he takes the waterway through Liu Bei's chassis to fight directly, the chance of winning is not great, if he takes the land route and has to pass through Cao Cao's chassis, then Cao Cao's attack will definitely outweigh the loss.

    Liu Bei's capture of Yizhou is a must-win, even if Cao Cao and Sun Quan say something, it is useless. Even if you waste half of your troops to fight for Yizhou, you can't earn Liu Bei, so it's better to raise your sperm and save money.

Sun Quan was the leader of the Eastern Wu regime during the Three Kingdoms period, although Sun Quan held the important decision-making power of the Eastern Wu, but there are not many records about him in history, compared with the other two regimes, the Eastern Wu does not seem to be so brilliant, and there are not many generals who can get their hands and battles that can prove their strength. For Sun Quan, he has a nickname called "Sun 100,000", where "100,000" refers to an army of 100,000, and the 100,000 army led by Sun Quan was beaten by Cao Cao's army of less than 1,000, so Sun Quan has such a nickname. >>>More
