As a martial saint, why did Guan Yu defeat Maicheng?

Guan Yu was defeated by Maicheng and killed by Lu Meng, which may be Guan Yu's most tragic and regrettable end, Guan Yu did not die on the battlefield, but what was the reason for such an end? Why didn't anyone come to his rescue at this time?

Some people say that Liu Bei actually doesn't want to save Guan Yu. Use the hands of Soochow to eradicate Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Of course, this argument may be true. But the analysis of the reasons should also start from the main reason for finding out how Guan Yu died with himself.

First: Guan Yu can't do it well. When Guan Yu was king in Jingzhou, he had not participated in the battle for many years. It's still the same way it was played in the past. Guan Yu did not clear the internal enemies in time, cultivated many potential enemies, and did not unite the internal contradictions.

Second: Guan Yu's foreign policy is unbalanced. provoked Sun Quan, Sun Quan has always had the idea of capturing Jingzhou, but the time is not ripe. At that time, Cao Cao planned to join forces with Soochow and share a piece of the pie.

Third: Guan Yu's personality is too strong. In this case, Guan Yu's defeat is inevitable.

Otherwise, how could Guan Yu fall from a high position to smash? Guan Yu's defeat of Maicheng is mainly related to Guan Yu's conservative character. Guan Yu is a very powerful person, but he doesn't see the changes around him clearly, and he can't be as good as he is.

Because of Guan Yu's strong personality, he lost his internal unity and unity. So Guan Yu ended up losing Mai Cheng in the end.

Guan Yu's defeat in Maicheng may be doomed, I have seen in many places that Guan Yu's death is actually a trap designed by Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu himself does not look down on Zhuge Liang, and feels that he is nothing more than a scholar who has read books, and it is too early to go into battle to kill the enemy, it is nothing more than talking on paper.

At that time, Guan Yu's age was also very high, and he didn't have the might of "warm wine and slashing Huaxiong" at the beginning, this is a hard injury, the most important thing for a military general is to be in good health, be able to swing his **, and kill countless enemies, but these are all once.

The main reason is that Guan Yu has no one in his eyes, and he didn't put Lu Meng and Cao Jun in his eyes at all, thinking that he was a big man in that period, the fierce general Lu Bu of the Three Kingdoms was killed, and his battlefield experience was already considered a veteran, so when he was chasing and killing Cao Jun, he was attacked by the Wu army in Jingzhou, and finally led to a two-sided attack.

Because the troops were not enough to resist the armies of the two countries, the final result could only be the defeat of Maicheng, captured by the Wu State, and finally killed.

The fundamental reason for Guan Yu's defeat of Maicheng was that he was too arrogant.

Indeed, on the surface, Guan Yu at that time was already a world-famous general, whether it was personal force value or the ability to lead troops to fight, Guan Yu was second to none, but Guan Yu's character slowly became more and more arrogant, which is the fundamental reason why Guan Yu finally lost Maicheng, I believe everyone has heard Guan Yu say that the tiger girl can marry the dog, the tiger girl is naturally her own daughter, the dog is the son of Sun Quan, Sun Quan is also one of the emperors of the Three Kingdoms, how can you give up after this humiliation, This also became the fuse for Guan Yu's defeat of Maicheng and his carelessness in Jingzhou.

Of course, there are two main reasons:

1. Don't listen to Zhuge Liang's opinions

Zhuge Liang has repeatedly warned Guan Yu not to leave Jingzhou no matter how big things happen, just holding Jingzhou is a great achievement, but Guan Yu at the critical moment due to complacency or arbitrariness, the handsome soldiers took the initiative to attack and fell into the enemy's tricks, especially the enemy's main force is Eastern Wu Lu Meng, Lu Meng almost engraved the hatred of Jingzhou in his bones, and how could he let Guan Yu go, naturally fought with his life, at this time Guan Yu was exhausted after fighting with many generals, and the victory or defeat can be imagined.

2. Refuse to bow your head

In fact, according to the situation at that time, even if Guan Yu defeated Maicheng, the strength of Shu Han was still there, and it was not impossible to gather millions of troops, so whether it was Cao Wei or Eastern Wu, there was a mustard psychologically, as long as Guan Yu was willing to bow his head at that time, the generals on either side would not dare to kill Guan Yu rashly, because they were afraid of getting angry, but Guan Yu just refused to bow his head, so he was killed by Lu Meng.

In fact, Guan Yu's defeat of Maicheng is in response to a sentence, that is, to destroy a person in advance must first make him crazy, Guan Yu is arrogant and complacent, in a high position without knowing it, which leads to carelessness in Jingzhou, and finally defeats Maicheng with hatred, imagine that if Guan Yu is cautious and low-key, Jingzhou may really be able to play the greatest role under the rule of Shu Han.

Because Jingzhou was lent to Liu Bei by Sun Quan, but Guan Yu was too arrogant, so Sun Quan would send troops. The second is that he asked Dr. Mi Fang to be benevolent, Pan Rui to guard the city, and Dr. Mi Fang to be benevolent on the right. causing the two of them to surrender. There is also the fact that the soldiers of the beacon are too loose. Let Lu Meng cross the river in white.

Because Guan Yu violated the strategic guidelines formulated by Zhuge Liang. The fundamental reason for the defeat of Maicheng was that Guan Yu was too masculine and domineering, proud and conceited.

Because Guan Yu fled from the place of Maicheng after losing the war. It was because he fell for the other party's scheme and was intercepted by the other party, so he was defeated by Maicheng.

Guan yu. In Maicheng, he was defeated by the Eastern Wu generals Pan Zhang, Zhu Ran and others.

The Battle of Maicheng was a battle in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms

is depicted in thick ink. At that time, Guan Yu had already lost Jingzhou and suffered heavy losses. Only 300 people came to Maicheng (now Lianghe Town, Dangyang City, Yichang, Hubei). Guan Yu went far away to destroy Liu Bei in Sichuan (present-day Sichuan) in the west.

and Liu Fengye and Meng Da of Shangyong (now Zhushan County, Hubei) asked for help.

However, Liu Bei was far away in Xichuan, and the rescuers could not arrive in time, while Liu Feng and Meng Da did not save them when they saw death. Guan Yu had no choice but to break through, but was ambushed by the Eastern Wu generals Pan Zhang, Zhu Ran and others. Guan Yu was captured by Eastern Wu, and would rather die than give in, and was beheaded by Sun Quan.

The story of the Battle of Wheat City was later famous all over the world by the success or failure of Romance.
