Guan Yu s soul left 8 characters, why did Liu Bei lose 750,000 soldiers and horses because of this?

Everyone is familiar with Guan Yu during the Three Kingdoms period, and he was hunted down and killed very early. Then he began to flee and began to sell dates, and met Liu Bei and Zhang Fei by chance, and when the three of them were drinking at home, they found that each other had ideals, and their ideals were the same, so they became brothers and realized their ideals together. Later, they invited Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountain, and after some hard work, they finally achieved Shu Han.

Liu Bei obtained Jingzhou and Yizhou, Guan Yu guarded Jingzhou to defend against Cao Cao and Sun Quan, and defeated Cao Cao's army, but because his character was too arrogant, he was united by Sun Quan and Cao Cao, and he failed to fight and died. Guan Yu was already carried away by the victory when he attacked Cao Cao, and he disagreed and scolded Sun Quan. Saying how could the tiger's daughter marry the dog's son, Sun Quan was very angry.

So Sun Quan and Cao Cao attacked together, Guan Yu finally killed Guan Yu and carved up Jingzhou, under the planning, when Cao Cao's army contained Guan Yu, while there was no one in Jingzhou, Lü Meng quickly captured Jingzhou. Guan Yu, who was isolated and helpless, was finally killed. Liu Bei, who was far away in Yizhou, did not know the news of Guan Yu's death.

He was reading at night, and suddenly saw Guan Yu's figure in front of him.

I thought it was very strange, I saw the opposite side shouting, I wish my brother to raise troops, and I disappeared after the 8 words of Brother Xue's hatred, and at this time the soldiers came with news that Guan Yu was killed. After confirming the news, Liu Bei knew that it was Guan Yu's soul who was reporting to him just now. Liu Bei was very angry and launched the Battle of Yiling.

As a result, 750,000 troops were burned to the ground, and he almost died in the war.

Guan Yu was killed, Liu Bei saw his soul left at night, "I wish my brother to raise troops, and I hate Brother Xue" eight words, launched the battle of Yiling, but was defeated, losing 750,000 soldiers and horses, and even Liu Bei almost lost his name.

Because the battle of Yiling initiated by Liu Bei failed, the vitality of Shu was greatly damaged, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were lost.

The narrative is not believable. In the battle of Yiling in history, Liu Bei led no more than 100,000 troops, only 70,000, and the total number of troops used by Eastern Wu was about 780,000.

Leaving the eight words "I wish my brother to raise troops and hate Brother Xue", Liu Bei was very angry, so he raised troops and launched the Battle of Yiling.

That's because Guan Yu's soul said to let Liu Bei help him avenge, and Liu Bei didn't take into account his own strength to help Guan Yu avenge, and finally lost 750,000 soldiers and horses.

The Shu soldiers were not well prepared, and they were in a hurry to fight, Liu Bei took Zhang Fei to fight, but suffered heavy losses.

Guan Yu: "I wish my brother to raise troops, and I hate Brother Xue!" These eight words disappeared later, and Liu Bei ordered people to invite all the military divisions and generals to come over overnight to discuss how to recapture Jingzhou and avenge Guan Yu. But everyone did not agree with this plan at that time, but Liu Bei insisted on going his own way, and finally lost 750,000 soldiers and horses.

It was because of Liu Bei's stubbornness and self-use, which was the fundamental reason for the failure of the Battle of Yiling, and then he made mistakes in the specific battle plan.

From a tactical point of view. At that time, it was very likely to attack Jingzhou immediately, because the internal situation in Jingzhou was unstable in Eastern Wu (see the question and answer on the topic of Wu's rule in Jingzhou), and the Wuling barbarians thought that Liu Bei was a foreign aid. In addition, Liu Bei personally led the troops, and the field combat effectiveness was ***.

But everyone knows the result, on the way to the march, Zhang Fei was killed by the villain's sneak attack because of excessive grief, and the red-eyed Liu Bei vowed to take Jingzhou. However, Wu General Lu Xun did not confront the Shu army, but adopted a strategy of detour and harassment, consuming the energy and equipment of the Shu army for several months. Later, taking advantage of the opportunity that Liu Bei's army and camps were all connected, Lu Xun ordered someone to cut off the back road of the Shu army, and then burned Liu Bei's 750,000 army cleanly, and Liu Bei himself almost died in this war, which is also known as the Battle of Yiling.

Before Guan Yu died, the eight words he shouted were "May my brother raise troops and hate my brother Xue". When Liu Bei learned of this news, he recalled his brotherhood in the past, and angrily raised troops to attack Eastern Wu, but suffered a major defeat in the Battle of Yiling, only to lose 750,000 soldiers and horses.

1. The process of Guan Yu's death

The twenty-fourth year of Jian'an is a key year in the history of Shu Han. In this year, Liu Bei sent troops from Yizhou and went north to attack Hanzhong, wanting to take Hanzhong from Cao Wei. In order to cooperate with Liu Bei's war on the Western Front, Guan Yu also sent troops from Jingzhou in this year to launch a fierce attack on Cao Wei's Xiangyang Fancheng line.

Guan Yu was initially overwhelmed, and completely annihilated the 30,000 elite troops of Yu Ban under Fancheng, which shocked China for a while. Cao Cao was greatly surprised, and hurriedly dispatched troops to resist Guan Yu. Just as Guan Yu was fighting with Cao Jun on the front line, he didn't expect Sun Quan to stab him in the back.

Although Sun Quan was Liu Bei's ally, he had already coveted the Jingzhou region for a long time, and now Guan Yu led the main force to leave Jingzhou, which was a golden opportunity for Sun Quan. He sent the general Lü Meng to cross the river in white clothes, broke through Jingzhou in one fell swoop, and copied Guan Yu's lair.

When the news reached the front line, Guan Yu was shocked, not only the logistics and baggage of the troops were all in Jingzhou, but the families and property of his subordinates were also in Jingzhou, and now they all fell into the hands of Wu State. Guan Yu's subordinates have fluctuating hearts and no fighting spirit. The cunning Lü Meng, on the one hand, treated the families of the Shu army soldiers well, and on the other hand, he lost no time in recruiting rebellions, and Guan Yu's subordinates fled in large numbers and surrendered to Wu.

In the end, Guan Yu lost his ground, suffered the enemy on his back, and fled in defeat under the attack of Cao Wei and Eastern Wu. When fleeing to Linfu, Guan Yu was caught by the ambush soldiers of Pan Zhang, the general of Wu State. Sun Quan was worried that the night would be long and dreamy, so he ordered Guan Yu to be beheaded on the spot.

A generation of famous generals died. Guan Yu was full of resentment at Wu Guo's treachery, and before he died, he shouted the words "May my brother raise troops and hate Brother Xue".

2. Liu Bei initiated the Battle of Yiling

The news of Guan Yu's killing by Wu soon spread to Shu, and Liu Bei was angry and sad. Especially the words left by Guan Yu before his death made his heart twist like a knife, so he desperately dispatched troops to launch a revenge war against Wu.

But Liu Bei forgot the famous words in "The Art of War": ".The Lord shall not be angry and raise up his army, nor shall he be discouraged and cause war”。Liu Bei, who was in a rage, made the mistake of being impatient and underestimating the enemy, and only wanted to destroy the Wu State as soon as possible and avenge Guan Yu.

Lu Xun, a famous general of Eastern Wu, responded to the battle calmly, commanded well, and first adopted the tactics of avoiding his sharp spirit, and fought a protracted war without fighting. Liu Bei's army was under the fortified city, unable to advance, unwilling to retreat, and the logistics and grain were gradually unsustainable, and the fighting spirit of the Shu Han army was becoming increasingly low. Lu Xun judged the situation, and only then did he suddenly launch a counterattack, and at the same time make full use of the terrain to carry out fire attacks, and finally defeated Liu Bei in the Battle of Yiling, Liu Bei's army of more than 700,000 troops was almost wiped out, and suffered unprecedented heavy losses.

For the sake of brotherly righteousness, Liu Bei put the interests of the country behind him, and finally suffered a big loss.

Because Guan Yu's last eight words were to hope that Liu Bei could avenge him, as a result, Liu Bei waved 750,000 soldiers and horses to attack Wu State, and the whole army was annihilated, Zhang Fei was killed on the way, and Liu Bei also died of illness on the way.

It is said that Guan Yu's soul shouted eight words, wishing his brother to raise troops, and hating Brother Xue, so Liu Bei lost 750,000 soldiers and horses. Because Liu Bei did not listen to Zhuge Liang's dissuasion and punished Wu, he was burned to the company's camp, his vitality was greatly damaged, and he lost 750,000 soldiers and horses.

This is because the 8 words shouted by Guan Yu wanted Liu Bei to raise troops to avenge himself, but at that time, the power of Liu Bei and Cao Cao was very different. But he was forced to raise troops in desperation, so that he suffered heavy losses.

Before Guan Yu died, he shouted the slogan of asking Liu Bei to avenge him, and Liu Bei later really led the army of Shu to attack Eastern Wu, so that Liu Bei directly lost 750,000 soldiers and horses。Of course, Liu Bei's attack on the east, in addition to avenging Guan Yu, he also wanted to recapture the territory of Jingzhou, because this place was too important to him, Zhuge Liang said it when he was in the Long squadron. If Liu Bei wants to win the world, he must take the two places of Jingzhou and Yizhou.

It is possible to realize his desire to unify the world, so Liu Bei must firmly hold Jingzhou in his own hands.

In addition to subjective factors, Guan Yu's loss of Jingzhou also has a lot to do with Liu Bei。Zhuge Liang said early on that Guan Yu was a very arrogant person. He is not suitable to be a general in Jingzhou, and he should put it under his nose, but Liu.

didn't listen to Zhuge Liang's advice at all. He thinks that his second brother Guan Yu is a great general, and there is no problem at all in guarding Jingzhou. What Liu Bei said was not wrong.

But there is also a mistake, Liu Bei's Guan Yu's talent is no problem to guard Jingzhou, but his character. A fatal problem indeed.

Jingzhou has always been a battleground for soldiers, and Sun Quan, Cao Cao, and Liu Bei all want to get this piece of territory。In fact, after losing Jingzhou. Intellectually speaking, Liu Bei should not have taken the initiative to attack Eastern Wu.

Because Liu Bei did not have this strength at that time, from a general strategic point of view, he should still unite with Sun Quan to fight against Cao Cao. In this way, Taoguang and Liu Bei have the hope of unifying the world.

But Liu Bei couldn't wait, because he was already very old at that time. Liu Bei has been in exile for the first half of his life. Didn't get a chance to prove himself.

At this age, he still has great ambitions, and he hopes to see the unity of the world before he dies. So he had to give it a last go, but he also paid the price for his impulsive behavior, and the army he led was almost completely wiped out, and the Shu Han regime was in danger.

Guan Yu shouted before he died: May my brother raise troops and hate Brother Xue. But this was shouted in Liu Bei's dream, because of Guan Yu's carelessness, which led to the loss of Jingzhou, an important strategic place, which made Liu Bei suffer heavy losses when facing Lu Xun.

shouted "May my brother raise troops and hate Brother Xue", Liu Bei was very sad when he heard this, so he chose to avenge him, which led to failure and the loss of 700,000 soldiers and horses.

Guan Yu said that he wished his brother to raise troops, and he hated Brother Xue. So Liu Bei gathered 750,000 soldiers and horses to avenge him, and the rest of them all died.

Guan Yu shouted eight words before he died: I wish my brother to raise troops, and I hate my brother Xue, Liu Bei was blinded by hatred after hearing it, and at that time the army would be defeated, but Liu Bei did not listen to the persuasion and had to send troops to take revenge, and the result was a failure and a direct loss of 750,000 soldiers and horses.

Not really. The soul does not exist, this is just made up by later generations, we must believe in science and oppose feudal superstition.

I don't think Liu Bei lost, 750,000 people, and only 50,000 horses were lost at that time, so it should have nothing to do with Guan Yu.

No, there is no scientific basis for the theory of soul at all, and Liu Bei did not lose 750,000 soldiers and horses, and it is estimated that there are not so many in the entire Shu Han.

"One can defeat Guan Yu, the other makes Cao Cao hate him to the core, who are the buried generals in Liu Biao's army? "Liu Biao at the end of the Han Dynasty, although he was a prince of one party and ranked first among the "Jingxiang Eight Horses", this person did not know talents. Many Jing Xiang talents were not reused, but shined in the camp of Cao Cao and Liu Bei.

The general who "defeated Guan Yu" in Liu Biao's question refers to Wenpin. Wen Ping followed Liu Cong to surrender to Cao Cao, and was appreciated and reused by Cao Cao, and Cao Cao ordered him to guard Jiangxia. Soon, Cao Cao was defeated in the Battle of Chibi, and Jiangxia, which was adjacent to Sun Wu's forces, was threatened by Sun Quan.

In 213 Wenpin, Liu Bei led his troops into Sichuan, and Lejin and Wenpin, who were stationed in Xiangyang, joined forces to attack Guan Yu many times. In the Battle of Xunkou, Le Jin and Wen Ping joined forces to defeat Guan Yu, and Wen Ping was also promoted to the general of rebellion and entered the Marquis of Yanshou Pavilion.

Guan Yu, who was called the "General of the Bear and Tiger" by Zhou Yu, suffered many losses against Wenpin. Guan Yu's baggage troops were attacked by Wen Ping in Hanjin, and Wen Ping burned Guan Yu's warship in Jingcheng to contain Guan Yu from going north.

Huang Zhong and the general who "made Cao Cao hate to the bone" refers to Huang Zhong. Huang Zhong was Liu Biao's general, and followed Liu Biao's subordinate Liu Pan to garrison Changsha Youxian County. In the Battle of Dingjun Mountain, Huang Zhong defeated the western general Xiahou Yuan, and finally let Cao Cao lose Hanzhong.

Xiahou Yuan is good at running thousands of miles, Zeng Hu Buguan right, is the supreme commander of the western theater of Cao Cao's camp. Huang Zhong has served under Liu Biao's account for more than ten years, but he has not made any achievements, but after serving Liu Bei, he has made great contributions. It shows that Wen Ping and Huang Zhong were buried by Liu Biao.

The only generals who were buried in Liu Biao's army were Huang Zhong, Wen Ping, and Cai Mao. Among them, the person who made Cao Cao hate him to the bone was Huang Zhong, and the one who could defeat Guan Yu was Wen Ping.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were wars everywhere, separatist forces everywhere, and the troubled times gave the capable generals a platform for development, and there were many famous generals in that period, such as the five good generals, as well as the five tiger generals, and each prince's subordinates had a group of powerful generals, who stood out in the war and were recorded in the annals of history. But the soldiers under Liu Biao in Jingzhou are not famous, not because their strength is not good, but because Liu Biao did not participate in the wars of other forces, so his famous generals are also hidden.

Liu Biao has a general named Cai Mao。and Liu Biao are related, is the brother of Liu Biao's wife, and followed Liu Biao from the beginning, but later made a mistake and defected to Cao Cao, and finally made a big mistake and was killed by Cao Cao. Liu Biao also has a fierce general named Huang Zhong

is a very brave and warlike person, that is, he killed Xiahou Yuan, Cao Cao was very jealous of him, and later Huang Zhong defected to Liu Bei, but he has no merits, and there are not many records of him.

In addition to the first two generals, Liu Biao also has a very powerful general, this person is Wen Ping. He is a very loyal person, once served under Cao Cao, and defeated Guan Yu twice, and was also very powerful in military affairs, when he fought against Sun Quan, he put on an empty plan to win the final victory, it can be said that he is a powerful general, but later after following Liu Biao, there was no vigorous record recorded. It can be seen that Liu Biao's subordinates did not have generals who could handle them, but that he did not have much ambition, so these generals were hidden.
