    Guan Yu, the word cloud is long, and he is from Yuncheng, Shanxi. As a famous general during the Three Kingdoms period of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he was known for his loyalty. From Liu Bei's birth to the beheading of Yan Liang, and then to the siege of the city, General Guan Yu's career is full of legends.

    Guan Yu was attacked by Cao Cao in Maicheng, and after being defeated, he was ambushed by Ma Zhong and fled to Linju. For Guan Yu, a historical figure, the evaluation of him by successive dynasties is polarized. Some people commented that Guan Yu was an out-and-out hero.

    Others see him as stubborn, arrogant, and blind.

    Martial Saint Guan Yu is by no means an ordinary person, and at the same time, his loyal liver and righteous courage are not in vain. After Guan Yu's death, he has been known as "Guan Gong" for many years. Guan Yu fled to Youzhou in his early years and joined Liu Bei's army.

    Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei are known as the "Taoyuan Three Loyalties". When Guan Yu accompanied Liu Bei, he always paid attention to protecting Liu Bei. Later, Guan Yu was captured alive by Cao Cao.

    During this period, Guan Yu killed Yan Liang and launched an attack. The general of the Yuan family was defeated and, eventually, eliminated under the leadership of Guan Yu.

    Guan Yu's bravery was favored by Cao Cao. Cao Cao attached great importance to Guan Yu and wanted to keep Guan Yu in his account for his own use. In the face of Cao Cao's repeated flattery, Guan Yu remained loyal to Liu Bei.

    Privately, he expressed his true thoughts to Zhang Liao, who was sent by Cao Cao. He said that he could not turn his back on Liu Bei's love for him, he had vowed to advance and retreat with him, and he would carry the kindness of Cao Gong. Therefore, Guan Yu's praised loyalty, justice, and courage are also genuine.

    After Guan Yu returned to Liu Bei's army, he was given the important task of defending Jingzhou.

    Guan Yu, who returned to Liu Bei's military camp, found that Liu Bei had a famous scholar, Zhuge Liang. Unlike Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang is a military advisor. Liu Bei has many generals around him who can fight well, but what he lacks is a military advisor.

    Zhuge Liang's arrival made Liu Bei very happy, so he paid more and more attention to Zhuge Liang. This made Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, who were close to Liu Bei, feel very depressed and unhappy. Later, Liu Bei had to explain in person the importance of explaining Zhuge Liang to himself with Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, thus reducing their public complaints about Zhuge Liang.

    But in private, Guan Yu still has many criticisms of Zhuge Liang. It just so happened that at this time, Ma Chao, who was both civil and military, gave in to Liu Bei. Therefore, he wrote to Zhuge Liang to test Ma Chao's current strength.

    Zhuge Liang knew Guan Yu's thoughts. Therefore, he also welcomed Guan Yu in his reply and called him a handsome bearded man, which made Guan Yu very happy and gave it to the guests at the banquet. Since then, Guan Yu's opinion of Zhuge Liang has also changed.
