A chapter on the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty
In history, Yuan Shao had a lot of talents, and his son Yuan Tan captured Qingzhou independently. It was very impressive. Sun Ce failed to capture Yangzhou completely. Yuan Shang was too selfish. After Yuan Shao died, he fought for the throne. Yuan's career was defeated in this person. The son-in-law, Bingzhou, was well-managed, and they were all talents who were in charge of the position.
The defeat in the Battle of Guandu was not that Yuan Shao was not capable of military capabilities, but Xu You's betrayal. In the early stage of the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao defeated Cao Cao in a very embarrassing way. It can be said that Yuan Shao's victory is just around the corner. The paradox of history is that everything is unexpected. Xu You's sudden betrayal led to Yuan Shao's weakest point being captured by Cao Cao; the most regrettable thing is that even if the Battle of Guandu was failed, Yuan Shao's strength was still better than Cao Cao. Cao Cao didn't dare or had the ability to go north to destroy Yuan. Unfortunately, Yuan Shao was in poor health and died just two years after the Battle of Guandu. Then everyone knew that Yuan Shao divided his son and son-in-law to take charge of the four prefectures. Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang fought for the throne, and they had a lot of fun. After that, Cao Cao picked up a hot soup cake with cold hands, and Bian Zhuang stabbed the tiger and won!
Xu You turned out to be Cao Cao's friend. History cannot be tested. The ancients wrote history very briefly. We cannot know that this person was a secret in which Yi had colluded with Cao Cao for a long time, or that he had failed in the political struggle under Yuan Shao, or that he was bribed by greed for money.
Yuan Xi is a very humorous and free-spirited person. He is the governor of Youzhou and does not participate in the throne. Later, he took in Yuan Shang, who was defeated. After his general betrayal, he and Yuan Shang defected to the prefect of Liaodong Gongsun Kang. Gongsun Kang grabbed this guy and wanted to behead him. It was cold in winter. Yuan Shang thought it was cold and said to Gongsun Kang, "You want to kill me. Before you die, can you put a mat on your butt? The ground is too cold. Yuan Xi said next to him: "The head is traveling thousands of miles apart, so what is the mat!" It means that the head is about to be sent thousands of miles away, so why do you want Zhang mat to do!
Having said that, the position of the 1st place in ancient times was always bloody, and Yuan Shao didn't handle it well
In fact, Cao Cao's son also fought for it, but Cao Pi's political ability is far stronger than Yuan Tan, and he is also the eldest son, so he himself suppressed Cao Zhi and Cao Zhang.
If Yuan Shao had not been biased, he would have established Yuan Tan long ago, and it is unknown who would have won the battle!
When I was writing the final chapter, the act I arranged for Zhang Yan was to burn out all the autumn grains. This guy was so tenacious that he was recruited by Cao Cao.
The cavalry of the Han Dynasty did not have high bridge saddles and stirrups, so their combat effectiveness was actually not particularly strong. They could not walk far away. Long-distance marching was not as good as infantry. Horse hooves were easily damaged. Cavalry and shooting were even more difficult to do, and only a very small number of elites could do it.
At the beginning of the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty, the golden age of cavalry was basically fully equipped, and the Mongolians were born on horseback. When they met a wise boss, they killed all over Europe and Asia.
Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others do not have such strong ambitions, and it will be easy to settle if they lose Liu Bei, the backbone. Any political group must have a core of big ambitions. Without this core, this political group will not go far.
If Sun Ce did not die, Jiangdong would collapse. He relied on the heroes of Huai Si, and had more of a hostile relationship with the Jiangdong gentry. After Sun Ce's death, Sun Quanxun merged with the local forces, and the war in the north gave Sun Quan time to integrate Jiangdong. If Sun Ce did not die, there would inevitably be rebellion in his rear, but this thing would be dead and the lights would be gone.
The number of troops in the work is extremely exaggerated. Yuan Shao and Cao Cao confronted only more than 100,000 people in Guandu, and the two sides were only 250,000. Yuan Shao did not become a military force like Sun Ce. In today's words, although Yuan Shao went south, he did not change to a wartime mechanism and did not really mobilize the power of the four prefectures of Hebei. Otherwise, he would have really been able to build a million troops.
Zhang Yan's millions of troops and the later 300,000 were both old, weak, sick and disabled. The real combat troops were considered to be overly high in 10.
In history, high-ranking officials were defeated by Ma Teng, Han Sui and Zhong Yao.
Han Sui rebelled before the Yellow Turbans. This guy was foolish and had great ambitions. He surrendered and rebelled at times. He was a typical warlord thinking. Whoever believed him died quickly. Therefore, Cao Cao used the counter-espionage strategy and was deceived. Because Han Sui had a bad character, in the end Han Sui was just like that. He had strong political ability, high emotional intelligence, and low IQ.
