Chapter 8 Cao's Tradition
At the end of the Han Dynasty, natural disasters and man-made disasters came together. Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Shi Changshi rebelled, Dong Zhuo went to Beijing, princes challenged Dong, and Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor.

More than [-] years of wars have produced heroes and heroes, revealed capable ministers and generals, but also trampled the lives of more ordinary people in the muddy water.

Selling children and selling daughters, eating turf to satisfy hunger, locust pests, and even "human cannibalism", everyone in Jingzhou has more or less seen or heard of it over the years, but what Cheng Yu did...

"Cheng Zhongde is so cruel and merciless?" Liu Bei was surprised.

"It's no wonder that in Xuchang, others commented that Cheng Yu had a violent personality and was so friendly with others. He was such a villain!" Guan Yu shook his head, very disdainful.

"It's because of Cao Mengde's foolish loyalty." Kong Ming also shook his head and sighed.

Even if Cao Cao wins the world, what can Cheng Yu get?Even if he is ranked third, Cheng Yu's hometown will always remember this shameless butcher who used the flesh and blood of his elders to feed the army.

Going back 400 years, Xiang Yu slayed himself because he had no face to see Jiangdong's elders and refused to cross the river!

"Then why do future generations want to discredit big brother?" Zhang Fei was very unconvinced.

Liu Bei took it lightly: "If it's fake, it can't be true, and if it's true, it can't be fake. Even if the younger generations are separated from us by 700 years, they can still know that it's just a rumor."

With such a broad mind, Huang Zhong couldn't help thinking "As expected of Liu Jingzhou".

Only Zhang Fei was still aggrieved, and he planned to go back and find two storytellers to arrange stories for Cao Mengde!Doesn't he like widowed mothers?Give him five... no, eight and ten!
[Of course, the selective blindness to Cao Cao in the Romance is not the only case of Cheng Yu, just a few typical ones.

The Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms records that Cao Cao conquered Lu Bu in October, slaughtered Pengcheng, and captured Pengcheng's prime minister Hou Xie.Romance didn't write this paragraph directly, skip it.

The Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms records that Zhang Miao and Zhang Chao rebelled against Cao Cao. Cao Cao besieged Yongqiu for several months, and after breaking through the city, slaughtered Yongqiu, beheaded Zhang Chao and all his family members.The city massacre was hidden in the novel, and the cause of Zhang Chao's death was changed to self-immolation.

According to the records of the later Han Dynasty, Yuan Shao killed [-] soldiers in the battle of Guandu, and the Romance changed the [-] to beheaded in the war.

It is clearly recorded in the Later Han Dynasty that Cao Cao slaughtered Yecheng and occupied Yuan's women.After the Romance was changed to breaking the city of Ye, it is strictly forbidden to disturb the people and the Yuan family. This is simply to take care of Cao Cao's face. After all, this time breaking the city of Ye took away Yuan Shao's daughter-in-law Zhen Mi. She later became the wife of Emperor Wei Wen and the biological mother of Emperor Wei Ming.

The Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms has repeatedly recorded that Cao Cao had a military order that "those who surrender after being encircled will not be pardoned", and this military order was completely hidden in the Romance.

The Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms also recorded many times that under Cao Cao's rule, the corvee was heavy, and the people suffered so much that they even directly revolted.It is also directly hidden in the romance.

The various embellishments in the Romance lead the audience to see that Cao Cao's evil deeds are just that, so some people say that this is true temperament, and even turn around and criticize Liu Bei's love to cry as a hypocrite and hypocrite, which is ridiculous. 】

"Brother loves to cry?" Zhang Fei's ears perked up.

"This should be just a rumor from later generations." Guan Yu laughed loudly: "I remember the last time my elder brother cried because Tian Guorang said goodbye, and wept that he wished we could achieve great things together. I remember that my elder brother cried this time, and I definitely don't like to cry."

"Fortunately, Tian Guorang ran fast. Later, when we defeated Lu Bu in Xiaopei and met Cao Cao, we fled here and there. If Tian Guorang is still there, his body may not be able to withstand the wind and rain." Zhang Fei said quietly.

Liu Bei didn't speak, but just gouged out Zhang Fei with his sharp eyes: "Third brother, don't you think about why Lu Bu turned against the guest!"
Kong Ming and Zhao Zilong were still burying their heads in copying, but Kong Ming's eyes lit up after copying: "Look at the meaning, there was someone who compiled the history for us later."

Xiushi is not treated normally!It's just that I don't know what my position is in this history book?How do future generations evaluate it?

Huang Zhong was the only one in the hall with a confused face. As a warrior, he became the general of Liu Biao in Jingzhou when he was 40 years old.

But he understood the sum of events in the light curtain, and listened to the meaning of the lord. This is the story of the younger generation more than 1000 years later, so... an unrealistic wish emerged in Huang Zhong's heart.

"Then Cao Aman later became Emperor Wei Wen? Shameless!" Zhang Fei didn't see his elder brother's eyes that wanted to kill someone, but turned his attention to a new aspect.

"This Wei Wendi may be Cao Aman's son..." Guan Yu disagreed.

"Everyone knows that Cao Cao likes married women! Isn't that how his eldest son died!" Zhang Fei plausibly said, "Break the city and rob him, and this is Yuan Shao's daughter-in-law. Isn't this just what Cao Cao was interested in?"

Guan Yu was speechless, and reminded: "Cao Aman and Yuan Shao are friends of the same generation. If you invade your daughter-in-law, it is not in accordance with etiquette."

"Do you think Cao thief cares about these things? But what you said is the second brother, but if this Wei Wendi is his son, it is not surprising. Both father and son like married women. Is this the tradition of their Cao family?" Zhang Fei laughed loudly.

The hall was silent for a while, Zhang Fei said vulgar, but it seems that this is really the case.

"Cao Cao is really a human butcher." Zhao Zilong sighed while copying. Human Tu was originally used to call Bai Qi, because Bai Qi killed 40 soldiers in the first battle.

[After talking about the real face of Cao Cao in history, let's talk about today's theme: When did the Cao family lose the world?

It's still Romance, because it only looks at the surface, and Sima Yi is also considered half of the protagonist in the later stage, so everyone feels like the emperor of the Cao family is doing well, eating hot pot and singing, and suddenly being robbed by the Sima family!

If we talk about it in general, it can be summed up in one sentence: Cao Weiming died on the surface of the Sima family, but in fact he died from internal fighting.

If it is said that Sun and Wu could not be unified because the master is weak and the guest is strong, then the problem of Cao Wei is that the two tigers are fighting each other.

Cao Wei's internal power strife is the most blatant manifestation, just look at Cao Zhi's "Seven Steps Poem", this poem also gave birth to a famous allusion: it is too urgent to be born from the same root. 】

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Liu Bei said that he had a common discourse. In the early years, when Cao Cao was still a Hanchen, he wanted to kill him countless times.

Unexpectedly, Cao Cao's own son would fight more fiercely later?This is really... Liu Bei picked up the tea on the table and drank it in one gulp, cool!

[There are two traditional groups within Cao Wei.

The Ruying clan group represented by counselors such as Guo Jia and the Xun family.

The Qiaopei military group with the Xiahou Cao family as its core.

In the early days of Cao Cao, a vassal power, he spent far more time fighting than engaging in politics, so at that time military power was in the hands of the Qiaopei Group.

However, after the Battle of Chibi in the later period, Cao Wei's territory was basically determined, military operations were reduced, and Cao Cao's old age led to the establishment of a reserve to be put on the agenda, and the friction between the two groups increased.

The two groups officially started fighting because in 219 A.D. a character named Wei Xi set off a rebellion: Ye voted for Han! 】
