Historical evaluation:

Chen Shou:
① At the end of the Han Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and the heroes rose together, but Yuan Shao looked down on the four states and was invincible.Taizu strategized and planned, lashed out at Yu Nei, applied spells of Shen and Shang, the ingenious strategies of Gai Han and Bai, and was taught by officials, all because of their implements. , but its clear and slightly optimal.It can be said that he is an extraordinary person, an outstanding man beyond the world. ②Cao Gong took advantage of the capital of the Han Dynasty, took the emperor to sweep the crowds, and made a new move in Jingcheng, fighting for the power of Dongxia.

Wang Chen: Taizu has been in the army for more than [-] years, and he never let go of books.Books talk about martial arts, and nights think about scriptures.Ascending a high level must compose poems, and creating new poems, which are orchestrated by them, all become movements.

"Book of Wei": Taizu himself ruled the sea, and the barbarians were ugly. His military divisions were much more in accordance with Sun and Wu's methods.There are more than 63 words in his own book of war, and all the generals are engaged in expeditions with new books.In the face of affairs, one's hand is the measure of festivals. Those who obey orders will succeed, and those who disobey the teachings will lose.When confronting the captives against Chen, they want to be at ease, if they don't want to fight, but when it comes time to take advantage of the decisive opportunity to win, the momentum is overflowing, so every battle must be overcome, and the army has no luck to win.Knowing people is good at observing, it is difficult to dazzle people with falsehoods, pull them out of the ban, enjoy their progress in the line of Chen, take Zhang Liao and Xu Huang among the captives, all of them are ordered to make meritorious service, and they are listed as famous generals; ,innumerable.Therefore, he created a great cause, practiced both civil and martial arts, and fought in the army for more than [-] years.He is extremely talented, shoots birds with his hands, and bows to birds and beasts. He tasted shooting pheasants in Nanpi and captured [-] pheasants in one day.As well as building palaces and repairing equipment, there are no rules of non-compliance, and they all do what they want.Elegant and frugal, not gorgeous, the harem clothes are not beautiful, the imperial court shoes are of the best quality, the curtains and screens, if they are broken, they will be repaired, the shackles are warm, and there are no predestined decorations.Siege cities and towns, and get beautiful things, and they will all be rewarded for meritorious service. They will be rewarded for their meritorious service, and they will not spare a thousand gold.

Cao Man said: "Taizu is a frivolous man with no prestige, and he is good at music."

Zhong Rong: Mr. Cao is very straightforward, with very sad words.

Xu Zijiang: Zi is a capable minister in governing the world, and a traitor in troubled times.

Zheng Xuan (referred to as Taizu): "The world will be in chaos, and the world will not be able to help if it is the destiny of the world. Those who can make peace depend on the king!"

Liang Mao: Mr. Cao was worried about the danger and defeat of the country, and out of the bitterness of the people, led the righteous soldiers to punish the remnant thieves for the world.

Li Tong: Mr. Cao is wise and wise, and he will surely conquer the world.

Zhuge Liang: Cao Cao's wisdom and tactics are unparalleled among others, and his use of troops is also like Sun and Wu.

Lu Su: Mr. Cao is very powerful.

Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty: Only one general is more than enough, but ten thousand chariots are not enough.

Zhong Yao: Nowadays, there are heroes all over the world, each of them pretends to be autocratic, but Cao Yanzhou is the royal family at heart, and it is not the hope of the vice-future that he rebels against his loyalty.

Liu Fang: In the past, Dong Zhuo rebelled, the heroes rose together, blocked the soldiers, and the people were self-confident, but Cao Gong was able to pull out the dangers, wear the emperor with his wings, and punish crimes with his words.

Sun Sheng: Wei Wu thus lost his power and was punished.It is easy to call it "Ming Shu Shu Prison", and it is said that "it is wrong to act directly". You can accept the world, but only the Qing Jixi.In the past, Xiao He, who was jailed in Han Gao, came out to be a prime minister, and he was responsible for it. He was expelled forever, and the two masters weighed him.

Bao Xin: The husband is not born in the world, and the one who can always be a hero to set things right is a gentleman.Gou is not his own person, even if he is strong, he will die.You are inspired by the sky!
Lu Ji: Although the Cao family has made great contributions to all China, the abuse is also deep, and the people resent it.

Zhu Ling: There are many people in Lingguan, and there is no one like Cao Gong. This is the true master.

Yang Fu: Mr. Cao has a great talent and a long-term strategy. He has no doubts about his decision-making. He has the best methods and the best soldiers.

Tian Yu: The one who can finally decide, must be the Cao family.It is advisable to return to fate quickly, and there will be no future disasters.

Leading move: Cao Gongyun respects Mingzhe, hopes to wear the emperor, defeats rebels and obeys softly, and calms the world.

Xu Jing: In the past, Qiu Yizhou was in the camp, and the Zhangyue was dedicated to levying.Today, I support the danger with one step, and I am the pillar of the country.Five Marquis and Nine Uncles are in control. From ancient times to the present, the respect of people and ministers has never been as high as that of the people under their feet.Those who are high-ranking husbands and nobles are deeply worried, and those who are rich in wealth have heavy responsibilities. According to the responsibilities of the high-ranking princes, they should be in the place of heavy responsibilities. Words come out of the mouth, which is reward and punishment;If you act in the right way, you will see peace in the country; if you act in a wrong way, you will be scattered in all directions.The safety of the country lies with one step; the life of the people depends on the deacon.From China to Yi, Yong Yong watched.If you do this, how can you not look at the reasons for the abolition of records, the opportunity of honor and disgrace, forget the old and evil, be lenient with the group, examine the five talents, and select people for the official?If you get someone, you will be promoted; if you are not someone, you will not teach it even if you are relatives.To Ning Sheji, to benefit the people, and to achieve success, the sound is attached to the orchestra, and the honor is given to the gold and stone. The original king encourages it!Self-respect for the country, self-love for the people.

[222] Cao Rui was granted the title of King of Pingyuan, but he was not established as the prince because his mother, the Zhen family, was abolished.

[226]
Cao Pi was critically ill, so he made Cao Rui the crown prince, and entrusted him to Cao Zhen, Sima Yi, Chen Qun, Cao Xiu and others.Soon, Cao Pi passed away, and Cao Rui succeeded to the throne, posthumously posthumously named Empress Wenzhao by his mother, Mrs. Zhen.In the eighth month, Sun Quan attacked Jiangxia, but Wenpin stood firm.The courtiers discussed sending troops to rescue, but Cao Rui believed that Sun Quan was planning a sneak attack, and the stalemate would not last long, and soon Sun Quan really withdrew.In December, Cao Rui enfeoffed all the ministers, Taiwei Zhongyou as Taifu, Cao Xiu, General of Zhengdong, as Grand Sima, General of the Chinese Army Cao Zhen as General, Situ Huaxin as Taiwei, Sikong Wang Lang as Situ, Zhenjun General Chen Qun is Sikong, General Fujun Sima Yi is General Hussars.

Sima Yi sent troops to conquer Liaodong and won.At the end of the same year, Cao Rui was critically ill, and Cao Yu, the king of Yan, was made a general. He wanted to be in the future, but Cao Yu declined, so Cao Rui listened to the words of Zhongshu Liu Fang and Sun Zi and changed Cao Shuang to be a general. .

[239] Cao Rui died of illness.

Historical evaluation:

Chen Shou: Emperor Ming Shen Yi cut his consciousness and acted according to his heart.At that time, the common people cheated, and the world fell apart. They did not first cultivate their ancestors and expound Hongji, but hurriedly pursued Qin Huang and Han Wu.

Sun Sheng: Emperor Ming of Wei had a beautiful appearance, his hair stood straight on the ground, he stuttered and seldom spoke, and Shen Yi was judgmental.In the early days, the princes were counseled by the legacy, and the emperor dealt with them according to the prescription, and the government came out by himself.And the minister of Youli, open-minded, kind and upright, although he offends his face and remonstrates him, he will not kill him, so the amount of his monarch is so great.However, if you don't think about building virtue and hanging on to the wind, if you don't consolidate the foundation of the city, you will make the power partial, and the country will be unguarded, and you will be sad!
Liu Ye: The first emperor of Qin and Xiaowu of the Han Dynasty had insignificant talents.

Cao Cao: I am based on your third life.

"Book of Wei": The emperor's appearance is impressive, and he looks like it.Freedom in the East Palace, no courtiers, no political affairs, only pondering books.After ascension to the throne, the Minister of Praise and Courtesy, the functions of the ministers, the authenticity and the falsehood cannot be traded, and the ends of the vanity and slander should be avoided.Personality is very strong and knowledgeable, even if the left and right ministers and officials keep records of their sexual behavior, their famous deeds, and their father, brother and children, once they are seen by the eyes and ears, they will never be forgotten.Containing dirt and disease, accepting outspoken words, listening to letters from officials, people and common people, there are dozens of hundreds of letters in one month, although the diction is crude, you can still read the details without getting tired.

Sun Quan: Today, Rui is young and weak, and he follows others. Cao and others must behave accordingly.On such a day, treachery and slander arose side by side, and became even more hostile to each other, turning into suspicion.As soon as you pass, the group competes for profit, and the master and the young do not resist, how long will it take to lose?Therefore, those who know this, from ancient times to the present, there have been four or five people who hold the handle of punishment, and they are not separated from the stabbing and hoof-biting!The strong should be weak, and the weak should ask for help. This is the way of chaos and death.

Pei Songzhi: My minister Songzhi thought that Emperor Wei Ming was in power for a while, and he came out on his own. Sun Quan's theory is unconvincing. However, according to historical records, he will be suspected of ruling a young country. Words should be recorded as a warning.Or it should be said that although it was lost to the Emperor Ming, it was done by the King of Qi, and the life of the King of Qi is not a test!Don't dare to reprimand, and suppress the micro-remarks of the foot.

Posthumous title: Jinghou

Family Members: Son: Man Wei

Historical Chronology:

At the time of Manchong, it was the postal supervisor of the county (all counties in the Han Dynasty had postal supervisors, who were in charge of monitoring and reporting illegal things in the county, and also in charge of conveying policies handed down from above, arresting fugitives, etc.).At that time, Li Shuo and others in the county each had their own divisions and did harm to the people.The prefect sent Man Chong to picket. After Li Shuo heard about it, he came to plead guilty and said that he would no longer harm the village.Later, Manchu favored Gao Pingling, and Zhang Bao (not Zhang Fei's son) from the county was the postal supervisor in the county. Zhang Bao took bribes and interfered in the administration of officials.Man Chong sent someone to arrest him and interrogate him. Perhaps because of excessive punishment, Zhang Bao died in prison, and Man Chong had to abandon his official position and go home.

After Cao Cao arrived in Yanzhou in the third year of Chuping (192), Man Chong was hired as a minister.In the first year of Jian'an (196), Cao Cao was appointed as a general, and Man Chong was appointed magistrate of Xu County.At that time, General Cao Hong, as Cao Cao's clan, was very valued by Cao Cao.However, some of Cao Hong's guests relied on their power to break the law many times in Xu County, which is under the jurisdiction of Man Chong.Man Chong is not afraid of power, arrests offenders and deals with them according to law.Cao Hong wrote to Man Chong to intercede for his guests, but Man Chong did not accept Cao Hong's request.Cao Hong told Cao Cao directly that he was going to use Cao Cao's power to save his guests.Cao Cao summoned the person in charge of Xu County.After Man Chong heard about it, he knew that Cao Cao was going to release these people, so he quickly killed them before Cao Cao's order was issued.When Cao Cao found out, he was happy instead of angry, and said, "It's not a good thing to be a human being.

In September of the second year of Jian'an (197), Yang Biao, the former Taiwei, was married to Yuan Shu, which aroused Cao Cao's suspicion, so he was arrested, and he was going to be executed for the crime of treason, and Man Chong was interrogated.Because Yang Biao was a celebrity at that time, he was wronged again.So Shangshu ordered Xun Yu, Shaofu Kong Rong, etc. to come to see Man Chong, and told Man Chong, "Just ask, please don't use torture."Unexpectedly, Man Chong acted as if he hadn't heard it, and tortured him as usual.A few days later, Man Chong begged to see Cao Cao and said, "I tortured Yang Biao, but I didn't find anything. This man is a well-known celebrity in the country. If he is beheaded without a definite charge, it will definitely disappoint the people." , if that's the case, I feel sorry for Mr. Cao in private."Cao Cao immediately released Yang Biao.At first, Xun Yu and Kong Rong were shocked and angry when they heard that Man Chong tortured Yang Biao; but later Yang Biao was released because of this, and they praised Man Chong even more.After Yang Biao was released, he saw the decline of the Han Dynasty and the Cao family was in power, so he claimed that his feet had spasms and he had not walked for more than ten years, so he was saved from disaster.In dealing with this matter, Man Chong did not violate Cao Cao's intentions, nor did he offend Xun Yu and Kong Rong, which can be said to be very wise.If he did what Xun Yu and Kong Rong suggested, Cao Cao might be suspected of perverting the law for personal gain. Not only might he not be able to rescue Yang Biao, but he might also be trapped in infidelity.

At that time, Yuan Shaoxiong dominated Hebei, and Runan was Yuan Shao's birthplace. His disciples and guests were distributed in various counties, and they all supported soldiers and refused to defend.Cao Cao was very worried, so he appointed Man Chong as the prefect of Runan.Man Chong recruited 500 people who obeyed the order, and led these people to capture more than 20 military camps.He also designed to trap and kill more than a dozen leaders who had not surrendered, so Runan was pacified by Man Chong.As a result, Manchong got more than 2 households and 2000 soldiers, and ordered him to go home to farm.In the 13th year of Jian'an, Man Chong followed Cao Cao to the southern expedition to Jingzhou, but was defeated by the combined forces of Sun and Liu in the Battle of Chibi.Cao Cao ordered Man Chong to be General Fenwei and stationed in Dangyang.Sun Quan attacked Wei many times, and Cao Cao transferred Man Chong back to Runan, served as the prefect, and bestowed the title of Marquis of Guannei.

In June of the 24th year of Jian'an (219), after Liu Bei took Hanzhong, he sent Mengda and Liu Feng to capture Fangling, Shangyong and other places in the eastern part of Hanzhong County, and his power expanded.In July, when Sun Quan wanted to attack Hefei, most of the Wei army mobilized Huainan to defend Wu army.Guan Yu, the former Shu general guarding Jingzhou, took the opportunity to stay in Nanjun (Jiangling, now Hubei Jiangling) Taishou Mi Fang guarding Jiangling, and general Fu Shiren guarding Gongan (now Hubei Gongan Northwest), leading the main force to attack Jingxiang in the north.At that time, General Cao Ren of Wei Zhengnan was stationed in Fancheng (now Xiangfan, Hubei), General Lu was stationed in Xiangyang, General Yu Jin and General Pang De of Liyi were stationed in the north of Fancheng, General Pingkou Xu Huang was stationed in Wanwan (now Nanyang, Henan).In August, it rained heavily and the Han River rose sharply, and Yujin's seven armies were all flooded.Therefore, Yu Jin surrendered to Guan Yu, and Pang De was defeated and killed.Guan Yu took advantage of the victory to besiege Fancheng and surrounded Xiangyang with a part of his troops.There were only a few thousand defenders in Fancheng, and the city walls collapsed in many places due to flooding, causing the entire army to turn pale with fright.Someone said to Cao Ren, "Today's crisis cannot be solved by us. But before Guan Yu's siege is completed, if you escape in the dark by light boat, even if you lose the city, you can still save your life."Cao Ren also considered abandoning Fancheng. At that time, Man Chong was assisting Cao Ren in Fancheng. Man Chong dissuaded him and said, "The mountain torrents are fast and fierce, and it should not last long. I heard that Guan Yu has sent other generals to attack Jiaxia. Since the south of Xu, the people are disturbing, Guan Yu The reason why we dare not attack immediately is because we are afraid that our army will still be behind them. If we flee now, the south of the Hong River will be out of our country’s control. You should stick to it.”Cao Ren thought it was reasonable, so Shen Baima made an oath with the soldiers to encourage them to work together to resist bravely.Although Guan Yu's army attacked fiercely by boat, they were still unable to take it for a while.Later, Xu Huang led the army to rescue Fancheng, Man Chong also fought hard to make meritorious deeds, and Guan Yu was also attacked by Wu general Lu Meng from the rear.
Had to retire.Because of the achievements of this station, Man Chong was named Anchang Tinghou.

In the first year of Huangchu, Cao Pi came to the throne and was promoted to General Yangwu.Later, because of his meritorious service in defeating the Wu army in Jiangling, he was appointed as General Fubo and stationed in Xinye.

In the third year of Huangchu (222), Man Chong followed Wei Wendi Cao Pi to conquer Soochow in the south.There are different opinions about the time when Man Chong followed Cao Pi to conquer Soochow. (Generally, according to Lu Bi's "Three Kingdoms Collection" Volume 26, it is said that in the sixth year of Huangchu, Man Chong went out with Cao Pi as General Fubo. But according to "Three Kingdoms; Wei Shu; Man Chong Biography", Man Chong Favored in the fifth year of Huangchu, he was worshiped as a former general. Moreover, according to historical records, Cao Pi only attacked Wu twice in his life, one for the third to fourth year of Huangchu, and one for the fifth year of Huangchu, so the third year of Huangchu is used here as the standard .) When they arrived at Jinghu, Man Chong led all the troops in front, facing Wu Jun across the river.Man Chong warned the generals: "The wind is strong tonight, and the enemy will definitely come to attack our army. We should prepare early."So he ordered the troops to seriously prepare for the enemy's surprise attack.In the middle of the night, Wu Jun really came to attack the burning camp.As soon as Man Chong waited for the Wu army to arrive, he led his army to attack suddenly, defeating the Wu army who came to sneak attack, creating a successful example of a surprise attack against a sneak attack.Man Chong was granted the title of Marquis of Nanxiang because of his meritorious service, and he pretended to be a festival axe.Foreseeing the enemy first, you can't help but sigh at Man Chong's excellence.

In the fifth year of Huangchu (222), Man Chong was appointed as a former general.

In the first year of Taihe (227), Emperor Ming Cao Rui came to the throne and granted Manchong the title of Marquis of Changyi.

In the second year of Taihe, he led the governor of Yuzhou.In May, Wu Poyang prefect Zhou Bream sent a personal letter to Yangzhou Mu Caoxiu, falsely claiming that he was reprimanded by the king of Wu, intending to abandon Wu and surrender to Wei, and asked to send troops to respond.Cao Xiu didn't know the authenticity, so he led 10 infantry and cavalry soldiers to Wancheng (now Qianshan, Anhui) to meet him.Wei Mingdi Cao Rui (who ruled Jinyang, now southwest of Taiyuan) ordered General Sima Yi to lead his army to Jiangling (now Jiangling, Hubei); General Jianwei Jia Kui led his army to Dongguan (now southwest of Hanshan, Anhui) to support Cao Xiu.In August, Sun Quan entered Wankou (now where the Wanshui river flows into Huaining, Anhui), and sent Lu Xun as the governor of Dadu, with a fake Huangyue, and appointed General Fenwu Zhu Huan and General Quan Cong of Suinan as the left and right governors, each commanding the troops. 3 attacked Cao Xiu.
Man Chong said on the table: "Although Cao Xiu is shrewd and courageous, he rarely uses troops. Now the route he has chosen is back to the lake and next to the river. It is easy to enter and difficult to retreat. This is a low-lying place for marching. If you enter, I am afraid it will be very dangerous. You should be careful. ".But before the above list was delivered, Cao Xiu fought Lu Xun in Shiting (now northeast of Qianshan, Anhui). Cao Xiu was defeated, beheaded more than [-] people, lost [-] cattle, horses, mules, donkey carts, and countless military equipment.The remnants of Cao Xiu were lucky enough to be rescued by Jia Kui, so they survived, but soon died of a fit of anger.

After Cao Xiu's death, Emperor Ming made Man Chong the governor of Yangzhou.When Man Chong was about to take office, the people under his jurisdiction were reluctant to leave when they heard that Man Chong was leaving. The history books describe that "big and small follow each other, and follow the road, which cannot be prohibited. For this reason, the guards made a statement and planned to kill the leader. In order to prevent the people from migrating with Man Chong, Emperor Ming issued an edict that only Man Chong would lead thousands of soldiers to accompany him, while the rest were not allowed to follow.

In the fourth year of Taihe (230), Man Chong was worshiped as General Zhengdong.In the winter of the same year, the Wu army was about to send troops to attack Wei Hefei (now Hefei, Anhui). After hearing the news, Man Chong reported it to the imperial court, requesting that the troops of Yan and Henan prefectures be summoned to defend the Wu army.When the Wu army entered Hefei, seeing that the Wei army was prepared, they retreated on their own.When Emperor Wei Ming learned that the Wu army had retreated, he ordered to stop gathering troops.Man Chong believes that "now that the bandit army (Soochow army) has made a large-scale attack but retreated, it must not be their original intention. This move must be a fake retreat in order to make our army paralyzed, and their army is unprepared to attack our army. .”Therefore, while asking the imperial court not to disband the assembled army, they stepped up their combat readiness.Ten days later, Wu Jun really attacked Hefei City again.Because Man Chong had prepared in advance, the Wu army failed to attack the city and returned without success.

In October of the fifth year of Taihe, Wu Zhonglang entrusted Sun Bu with the will of Emperor Wu and Sun Quan, and sent someone to contact Wang Ling, the governor of Wei Yangzhou, expressing his intention to surrender, but said, "The road is too far, so I can't come to see you by myself. I hope you can send troops to meet you." "I" (the meaning of the letter is that because the distance between the two sides is too far, I am afraid of being stopped by other troops in the process of surrendering, and I hope that Wei Guo will send troops to respond) ) preset ambushes, standby for attack.Wang Ling didn't know the authenticity, so he asked to send troops to meet him.Man Chong judged that there was fraud and did not agree to send troops. (Of course, Zhou Bing also used this strategy in the past.) Wang Ling wrote, "(Sun Bu) can distinguish the difference between evil and good, intend to stay away from evil and return to our country, and abandon the tyranny of Soochow and return to the righteous way. It is really worthy of praise. Ah. Now I plan to send troops to respond. However, if there are too few soldiers, it may be difficult to protect Sun Bu who has surrendered. If there are too many soldiers, the secrets may be leaked. I hope that an agreement can be reached in secret so that I can temporarily dispatch suitable troops."At that time, Man Chong was summoned to the imperial court, and Man Chong warned Chang Shi: "If Wang Ling is going to meet him, don't give him soldiers." Wang Ling failed to ask for soldiers, so he made his own decision and sent a superintendent to lead 700 infantry and cavalry to meet him.Sun Bu attacked at night, and most of the Wei army was killed or injured.

When Man Chong and Wang Ling were at odds, Wang Ling sent his henchmen to discredit Man Chong, saying that he was old and ridiculous.So Emperor Ming ordered Manchong to enter the court, but found that Manchong was in good health, so he ordered him to return.Man Chong was unwilling to work with Wang Ling and asked to stay in Beijing.Emperor Ming issued an edict and said: "Although Lian Po is old, he can still eat well. Although Ma Yuan is old, he can still sit on the saddle. Now that you are not old, you think you are old. How can you be so different from Lian Po and Ma Yuan? I hope you can keep the state safe, so that the place can benefit from you"

In the sixth year of Taihe (232), Lu Xun, the great general of Wu, led his army to Wei Lujiang (governing Lu'an, now northeast of Lu'an, Anhui).Lujiang is in an emergency, and many people advocate going to the rescue immediately.Man Chong believed that "Although the Lujiang River is small, its generals are capable and its soldiers are shrewd, and they can defend for a relatively long time. Moreover, the enemy army came with a boat two hundred miles away. I plan to lure him. Now we should let them attack, or I am afraid that they will escape and we will not be able to catch up." Therefore, Man Chong did not rush to send troops to rescue Lujiang, but instead led his elite troops to set up an ambush at Yangyikou (the confluence of Yangquanshui and Jieshui, northeast of Huoqiu, Anhui today) to meet them. Wu Jun.Lu Xun detected the movement of the Wei army, so he led his troops to retreat overnight.In this battle, I am full of favors to use slowness to control urgency, and to defeat others without fighting.How can Man Chong be counted like this?I can't accept it.

At that time, Emperor Wu and Sun Quan planned to attack Hefei basically every year.Man Chong then wrote a letter saying: "Hefei is adjacent to rivers and lakes in the south and Shouchun in the north. If the Soochow army comes to attack, they can rely on the advantage of water (the Soochow navy is far stronger than the Wei State's navy); and we will send The rescue of the army must first defeat the main force of the enemy army, and then it is possible to break the siege. It is easy for the enemy army to attack from the water, but it is very difficult for our army to go to the rescue. In the thirty miles of Hefei City, there are extraordinary dangers to rely on. But building a new city there and relocating all the soldiers in the city to the new city is more conducive to defense, and it can lure the enemy to land and intercept their return route, which is more suitable for our army's strategy." .Jiang Ji, the general of the guard army, thought: "This way we will be weak to the world, and we will abandon Hefei City as soon as we see the enemy's attacking beacon smoke. This means that the enemy army has captured our Hefei City before attacking. As I said, there will be no limit to the enemy's plunder, and it should be guarded in Huaibei." (With Man Chong's strategy, the construction of a new city can only move the soldiers there, and the people are not able to do so because of the soil, family property and other reasons. It may have been relocated, so Jiang Ji made such remarks).Therefore, Emperor Ming did not agree to Man Chong's letter.So Man Chong wrote again and said, "Sun Tzu said that soldiers are deceitful. So we can show weakness to the enemy, make the enemy proud because of profits, and show them intimidation (I really don't know how to explain this sentence. This is the foreign minister. It doesn’t have to be exactly the same as the reality. Sun Tzu also said, “Those who are good at moving the enemy form it”. Now we move the city inward before the enemy army arrives. This is the so-called lure the enemy with illusion. And lure the enemy away from what they are good at In water warfare, choose the terrain that is beneficial to us to fight, and if you hold it outside, you will be blessed inside (these two sentences can’t explain it again)". Shangshu Zhao Zi thought that what Man Chong said was very true, and Emperor Ming agreed to move Hefei to the west Another new city will be built within 30 miles.

In the first year of Qinglong (233), Sun Quan's army wanted to attack Xincheng.Because the city was far away from the waters, the Wu army did not dare to give up their ships to fight on land, so they had to stay on the water for more than 20 days.Man Chong said to the generals: "Sun Quan learned that I moved the city. There must be some arrogant words in the army. This large-scale attack was originally intended to succeed in one fell swoop. Although he dare not give up the navy to attack us now, he will definitely send some The sergeants came ashore to show off their bravery," so they secretly dispatched 6000 infantry and cavalry to lie in wait in a hidden place in Hefei City.Soon, Sun Quan really sent troops ashore to show off his strength, Wei Fubing launched a surprise attack, Wu Jun was beheaded hundreds of people, many drowned.

In February of the second year of Qinglong (234), Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu, attacked Wei for the fifth time, and sent envoys to contact Soochow to attack Wei together.In May, Sun Quan personally led an army of 10 to Chaohukou, preparing to attack Hefei New Town.Emperor Ming heard the news that he sent guard Qin Lang to lead 2 infantry and cavalry to assist Sima Yi in resisting the Shu army, and sent Man Chong to lead 8000 infantry and cavalry as the vanguard to assist Xincheng.In July, Emperor Ming personally led the navy to advance.Sun Quan sent troops to attack Xincheng many times, but the guard Zhang Ying and others tried their best to fight and resist, but Sun Quan's army was still unable to take Xincheng.Man Chong recruited dozens of soldiers, folded pine branches into torches, poured sesame oil on them, set fire from the upper wind, burned the Wu army's siege equipment, and shot Sun Quan's nephew Sun Tai.At that time, there were many sick people in the Wu army. Wei reinforcements arrived, and the army led by Emperor Ming was about to arrive. Sun Quan had to retreat.

In the spring of the third year of Qinglong (234), Emperor Wu Sun Quan sent thousands of families to live in Jiangbei.In August, Man Chong believed that "Tian Jian is harvesting mature crops, and there are men and women harvesting all over the sky. The soldiers of the guards are hundreds of miles away from the city, and they can take advantage of the opportunity to attack." So he sent Chang Shi to lead the army along the east of the river. Next, destroy the warehouses of various grain stores, and return after burning the grain.Emperor Ming issued an edict to praise Man Chong, and rewarded all the things he got to the soldiers.

In the second year of Jingchu (238), Man Chong returned due to old age. In March, Man Chong was promoted to Taiwei.

Full of pets, the family has no money left.The imperial edict said: "The king's soldiers are away, and they concentrate on worrying about the public. They have the style of obeying their fathers and offering sacrifices. Give ten hectares of land, five hundred hu of grain, and 20 yuan in money. It is based on the festival of loyalty and thrift in the Ming and Qing Dynasties." There are a total of [-] households, and the two descendants are Tinghou.

In the third year of Zhengshi (242), Man Chong died.

Historical evaluation:

Chen Shou's evaluation of Man Chong is "Man Chong is determined, resolute, courageous and resourceful", but in fact, I think there is another point that "it is considered exhaustive strategy".However, Man Chong was not reused during Cao Cao's period, and basically appeared as a supporting role all the time. This is probably related to the fact that he is neither a relative of Cao Cao nor a famous celebrity in the world.

Cao Fang

Word: Lan Qing
Time: 232-274 (Shou 43)

Birthplace: Same as Cao Cao
Official Title: Emperor

Posthumous title: Duke Li

Family members: Father: Cao Rui

Historical Chronology
Cao Fang, the adopted son of Emperor Wei Ming Cao Rui, had secret affairs in the palace, but the origin is unknown ("Wei's Spring and Autumn Annals" states: He is the son of Cao Kai, the king of Rencheng).

[235] Cao Fang was made king of Qi.

[239]
In the first month, Wei Ming Emperor Cao Rui was seriously ill, so Cao Fang was named the crown prince.On the same day, Cao Rui died of illness, so Cao Fang succeeded to the throne at the age of eight. General Cao Shuang and Taiwei Sima Yi assisted the government.In August of the same year, Cao Fang began to visit the government in person and listen to ministers' performances.

[244] Cao Fang issued an imperial edict to attack Shu at the suggestion of Cao Shuang, but the result was in vain.

[249]
Cao Fang left Luoyang to pay homage to Gaoping Mausoleum, the tomb of Emperor Wei Ming, and Cao Shuang and his brothers followed him.Sima Yi took the opportunity to play the Empress Dowager Yongning, please abolish Cao Shuang brothers, and lead troops to station Simamen to control Kyoto.Cao Shuang finally succumbed and asked himself to be removed from his post. Soon after, he was convicted by Sima Yi and wiped out the three clans.From then on, the military and political power of Cao Wei fell into the hands of Sima Yi.

[251] Wang Ling sought to set up Cao Biao, the king of Chu, but was attacked by Sima Yi, and Cao Biao was bestowed to death.In the same year, Sima Yi died of illness.

[252] Sima Shi was appointed as a general, and Sima continued to control the government of Wei State.

[254]
In February, Zhongshu ordered Li Feng, Empress Zhang's father Zhang Ji and others to plot to abolish Sima Shi and change Li Xiahouxuan to be a general.The matter was revealed, many people were implicated and killed, and Queen Zhang was deposed.In September of the same year, the empress dowager Sima Shi Shangzuo abolished the emperor Cao Fang, and made Gaogui Township Duke Cao Mao the emperor.Cao Fang moved out of Luoyang and built the Qi Palace in Chongmenying, Hanoi County. All the etiquette systems are like the feudal kingdom of princes and kings.

[266] The Western Jin Dynasty replaced the Wei Dynasty, and Cao Fang, the king of Qi, was named the Duke of Shaoling County.

[274] Cao Fang died.

Historical evaluation:

Chen Shou: The ancients regarded the world as the public, and only the virtuous are the ones.For future generations, establish a son to be suitable; if the suitable heir does not succeed, it is advisable to adopt the next-of-kin's Mingde, such as the literature and propaganda of the Han Dynasty, it is not easy and often accurate.Emperor Ming couldn't do that, he was in love with himself, he raised his children, he passed on a great treasure, he was not dedicated to entrusting him, so he had to join the Zhi clan, and finally Cao Shuang killed the barbarians, and the king of Qi replaced him.

Cao Mao

Word: Yan Shi
Time: 241-260 (Shou 20)

Birthplace: Same as Cao Cao
Official Title: Emperor

Family Members: Father: Cao Lin

Historical Chronology:

Cao Mao is the grandson of Cao Pi, Emperor Wen of Wei Dynasty, and the son of Cao Lin, Ding Wang of the East China Sea.

[244] Cao Mao was granted the title of Duke of Gaogui Township in Tan County.

[254]
Wei Emperor Cao Fang was deposed, and Cao Mao was established as Wei Emperor.After ascending the throne, Cao Mao ordered to reduce the expenditure of the harem and prohibit luxury.In the same year, Cao Mao was forced to bestow Huang Yue, the great general Sima Shi, and the privilege of playing an unknown role and walking on the sword.

[255]
Zhendong general Wu Qiujian and Yangzhou governor Wenqin rebelled because of the abolition of the establishment. Sima Shi led his troops to successfully attack, but died of illness on the way home.Cao Mao was unable to prevent Sima Zhao from succeeding as a general, so the government continued to be controlled by the Sima family.

[257] Zhuge Dan rebelled, and Sima Zhao led his troops to conquer it, and it was put down the next year.

[260]
Cao Mao was very angry when he found out that the authority was gone, so he summoned Wang Shen, Shangshu Wang Jing, and Sanqi Changshi Wang Ye to discuss with them, and wanted to go out of the palace to attack Sima Zhao.Wang Jing urged Cao Mao not to listen.Wang Chen and Wang Ye secretly reported the matter to Sima Zhao, so Sima Zhao made preparations.Cao Mao himself led hundreds of servants and came out with a clamor. Sima Zhao's younger brother, Sima Ni, came to dissuade him, but Cao Mao's men shouted back.Jia Chong, the Central Guard, came out to stop Cao Mao, who drew his sword to fight in person, and the crowd retreated, but the crown prince Sheren Chengji stepped forward with a spear at Jia Chong's instruction, and stabbed Cao Mao to death.After hearing the news, Sima Zhao pretended to be shocked, beheaded Cheng Ji to apologize, and in the name of the queen mother, Cao Mao's title of emperor was abolished on the charge of disrespecting the queen mother and seeking his own death.

Historical evaluation:

Chen Shou: A noble man who has been talented and intelligent for a long time, who likes to ask questions before saying goodbye, is also like Emperor Wen;

Achievement: planning

Family members: father: Xun Yu, uncle: Xun Shuang, nephew: Xun You, son: Xun Yun

Historical Chronology:

[189]
He served as the county magistrate of Kangfu after he promoted Xiaolian, and soon resigned and went home. Before leaving, he said to his elders: "Yingchuan is a place of war, and the world will change. You should go far away and not stay for long." He led the people to join Han Fu. , but was greeted by Yuan Shao.Yuan Shao treated Yu as a guest of honor.Xun Yu's younger brother Xun Chen, Xin Ping and Guo Tu of the same county were all used by Shao.

[191]
Cao Cao was in Dongjun as General Fenwu. Xun Yu knew that Yuan Shao would not be able to achieve great things, so he left Yuan Shao and joined Cao Cao.Cao Cao said in great joy: "My Zhang Liang is also." He was used as Sima at the age of 29.At this time, Dong Zhuowei ruled the world. Cao Cao asked Xun Yu for advice, and Xun Yu said: "Dong Zhuo's tyranny is too violent, and he will end in chaos. He is powerless." , Chen stayed and returned.Most of the villagers who stayed were killed.

[192] Cao Cao led Yanzhou Mu, later became General Zhendong, and Xun Yu was an official to Sima.

[194]
Cao Cao conquered Tao Qian, and Ren Yu stayed behind.Zhang Miao and Chen Gong rebelled in Yanzhou and sneaked in to meet Lu Bu.As soon as Lü Bu arrived, Miao sent Liu Yi to tell Yu, "General Lv has come to help Emissary Cao attack Tao Qian, and you should provide him with food." Everyone was puzzled.Knowing that Zhang Miao had rebelled, Xun Yu immediately mobilized troops to set up defenses, and summoned Xiahou Dun, the prefect of Dongjun, and all the cities of Yanzhou should be deployed.At this time, Cao Cao's army was modest in attack, and there were few soldiers left behind, and most of the guards were in collusion with Zhang Miao and Chen Gong.When Xiahou Dun arrived, he punished dozens of traitors at night, and everyone was determined.The governor of Yuzhou, Guo Gongshuai, tens of thousands of people came to the city, or he said that he was conspiring with Lu Bu, and the crowd was very afraid.Guo Gong asked to see Xun Yu, and Xun Yu was going.Xiahou Dun and others said: "It depends on you to control this state. You can't go. It's dangerous to go." Even if it is not useful, it can be neutralized, but if you doubt it first, you will be angry and plan." Seeing that Xun Yu had no fear, Guo Gong told Lu Bu that the city was not easy to attack, so he led his troops away.Xun Yu and Cheng Yu planned to successfully defend Fan and Dong'e, and died in the three cities to wait for Cao Cao.Cao Cao fought back against Lv Bu at Puyang from Xuzhou, and Lv Bu left.After Tao Qian's death, Cao Cao wanted to take Xuzhou, and then attacked Lu Bu.Xun Yu advised Cao Cao to conquer Yanzhou first and defeat Lu Bu before he can enter the world.Cao Cao stopped.After harvesting the wheat fields, he fought with Lu Bu and divided the troops to pacify the counties.Lu Bu was defeated and Yanzhou was flattened.

[196]
Cao Cao defeated the remnants of the Yellow Turbans.Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty returned to Luoyang from Hedong.Xun Yu persuaded Cao Cao to obey the will of the people, sing the first song of righteous soldiers, and welcome back the emperor.Cao Cao then went to Luoyang to welcome the emperor Xu Du.The emperor named Cao Cao the general, entered Xun Yu as a servant of the Han Dynasty, and obeyed the order of the minister.Although Taizu was away on an expedition, all military and state affairs were organized with Xun Yu.Xun Yu recommended Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia, and Chen Qunqun to Cao Cao many times.Cao Cao is used as an official.Since Cao Cao welcomed the emperor back, Yuan Shao was dissatisfied.Yuan Shao unified Hebei, and everyone in the world feared his strength.Cao Cao worried about Lu Bu in the east, and rejected Zhang Xiu in the south, and Zhang Xiu defeated Cao Cao in Wan.Yuan Shaoyi is arrogant, and his words are contrary to the Taizu's book.Cao Cao was furious, and the movement in and out was abnormal. Everyone said that the failure was due to Zhang Xiu's reason.Cao Cao showed Xun Yu the book of Yuan Shao, and said, "Now I want to attack Yuan Shao, but I am no match for it, what should I do?" Xun Yu said, Yuan Shao is the only one who is competing with you now.Xun Yu enlightened Cao Cao with the saying of ten victories and ten defeats, and Cao Cao was very happy.Xun Yu said: "If you don't take Lu Bu first, Hebei should not be taken lightly." Cao Cao listened to Xun Yu.

[198]
Taizu defeated Zhang Xiu, captured Lu Bu in the east, settled Xuzhou, and rejected Yuan Shao.Kong Rong said to Xun Yu: "Yuan Shao has a vast land and a strong army; Tian Feng and Xu You are wise men who plan for him; officials who judge and meet discipline are loyal ministers and do whatever they want; Yan Liang and Wen Chou are brave men. It is too difficult to attack!" Xun Yu said: "Although Yuan Shao has many troops, his law is not organized. Tian Fenggang committed crimes, and Xu You was greedy and did not deal with it. The judges are dedicated but have no plan, and they use it when they meet the rules. The two of you will keep the future in mind, if your family breaks the law, you will not let it go, if you don't let it go, you will change. Yan Liang and Wen Chou, the brave ears of a husband, can be killed in a single battle."

[200]
Cao Cao went to war with Yuan Shao.Cao Cao guarded Guandu, and Yuan Shao besieged it.Cao Cao's army rations were exhausted, so he wrote a letter to Xun Yu, saying that he wanted to return to Xuchang to lure Yuan Shao.Xun Yu said: "Although there is little food in the army today, you have used one-tenth of Yuan Shao's strength to paint the land and defend it. It has been half a year since you choked his throat and were unable to advance. This is a strange time, so don't miss it." Cao Cao Attacked Yuan Shao's Bietun with surprise troops, beheaded his general Chunyu Qiong and others, and Yuan Shao retreated.Xu You's family was lawless in the trial match, and Xu You accepted his wife. Xu You betrayed Yuan Shao angrily; Yan Liang and Wen Chou were awarded the leadership;

[201]
Cao Cao lacked food and was not enough to support Hebei. He wanted to attack Liu Biao because of Yuan Shao's new breakup.Yu said: "Now that Shao is defeated, the people are alienated. It is better to take advantage of the difficulties and decide it; and to carry Yan and Yu, and to learn from Jiang and Han. If Shao collects the remaining ashes and inherits the emptiness to get out of others, the official business will go away. ’” Taizu said that he was next to the river.Shao died of illness.Taizu crossed the river and attacked Shaozi Tan and Shang, while Gao Gan and Guo Yuan invaded Hedong, Guan You was shaken, and Zhong Yao, commander of Ma Teng and others defeated them.

[203] Taizu recorded Xun Yu's previous achievements, and named him Longevity Tinghou.

[204]
Cao Cao captured Ye and led Jizhou Mu.At this time, Xun You was often the mastermind.Xun Yu's older brother, Xun Yan, guarded Ye as the captain of the military academy, and supervised the affairs of Hebei.When Cao Cao conquered Yuan Shang, Yuan Shao's nephew, Gao Qianmi, sent troops to attack Ye. Xun Yan found out and punished him.

[207]
Cao Cao was about to attack Liu Biao, and asked Xun Yu what strategy he had. Xun Yu said, "Now that China has leveled off, the southern lands know that it is in danger. We can make light advances from Chuwan and Ye to cover up his surprise." Taizu went ahead .Soon after Liu Biao died of illness, the Taizu went straight to Wan and Ye Ruxun, and Liu Cong, Liu Biao's son, asked to surrender from the state.

[212]
Dong Zhao and others persuaded Cao Cao to take the throne, but Xun Yu believed that Cao Cao's original purpose of raising righteous soldiers was to restore the Han Dynasty, which should not be the case.Cao Cao was unhappy.Soon after, he went on an expedition to Sun Quan, and invited Xun Yu to join the expedition, to serve Dr. Guanglu of Zhongzhong to hold festivals, and to participate in the prime minister's military affairs.Because in the past when Cao Cao sent troops, Xun Yu always stayed behind, so Xun Yu was worried and afraid. When Cao Cao's army arrived at Ruxu, Xun Yu stayed in Shouchun due to illness, and soon died of worry.

Historical evaluation:

Chen Shou: Xun Yu is delicate and elegant, with the style of Wang Zuo, but he learned from his forerunners and failed to fulfill his ambitions.

He Yong: Wang Zuocai also.

Cao Cao: ①My son's house is also. ②Servant in charge of ministers and orderlings, accumulating virtue and deeds, no regrets for young adults, troubled by the world, cherishing loyalty and thinking about governance.From the beginning, the minister raised volunteer soldiers, traveled around and conquered, worked together with Yu, controlled the king's strategy, spoke and gave advice, and nothing was ineffective.Yu's meritorious deeds are aided by ministers, and they are used to cover the floating clouds to show the sun and the moon.Fortunately, His Majesty, you are close to the left and right, loyal and obedient, like walking on thin ice, researching the essence very sharply, so as to care for common affairs.The order of the world is determined by Yu's merits. ③Er Xun Ling's theory of people will gain trust over time, and I will never forget it in this world. ④ Zhongzheng conspires, Funing inside and outside, Wen Ruo also.

Zhong Yao: Since there is no Yan Zi, he can prepare for the nine virtues, and there are no faults, but Xun Yu is the only one.

Sima Yi: From what I have heard and heard, in the past hundred or so years of my arrest, I have never been as talented as Xun Lingjun.

Pei Songzhi: Don't you know that Wei Wu's ambition is not a loyal minister of the declining Han Dynasty?It is good because at that time the kingly way was weak, the tide was already extreme, the heroes and tigers looked at it, people had different ideas, and there was no capital to bring order out of chaos.Husband wants to praise Shi Ying with his wings, and he will be lucky, who will give it to the people of Fesz?Therefore, if Jinglun is ill, if he saves his life and uses his energy to move in the middle of the mountain, as for the tycoon, the common people will be connected by boats and sails, and Liu Zongyan's success in the second century, isn't it Xunsheng's original plan, the far-reaching of benevolence and forgiveness?When the hegemony was prosperous, the traces of Jian Han were written, and then he died in martyrdom, in order to express his love, the whole is upright in the year, and the sincerity is in the hundred generations.Calling it unfulfilled is almost a false accusation!

"Jinyang Autumn": Yu Li's morality is high, and his rituals are used to train things.

"The Biography of Yu Farewell": Yu is well-behaved and well-behaved. He does not care about the righteous way. He is famous all over the world. Everyone thinks of it as an appearance.

Historical Chronology:

In the first year of Zhongping [AD 184], He Jin took charge of the government and recruited more than [-] people including Xun You, a famous scholar in China.When Xun You arrived, he paid homage to the servant of Huangmen.

In the sixth year of Zhongping [AD 189], Dong Zhuo's rebellion, the Kwantung Army rose, and Dong Zhuo moved his capital to Chang'an.Xun You conspired with Yilang Zheng Tai, He Yong, Shizhong Zhongji, Yueqi School Wei Wu Qiong and others, saying: "Dong Zhuo has no way, and the whole world complains about him. Although he has a strong army, he is really a brave man. We should assassinate him as a thank you." The people, then assist the king to order the world, this is Huan Wen's move." When the matter was not found out, He Yong and Xun You were taken to prison, and Yong was afraid of committing suicide.Xun You abandoned his official position and returned, and asked the government to become an official in Rencheng, but failed.Xun You thought that the Shu Han was dangerous and strong, and the people were prosperous, so he asked to be the prefect of Shu County. Because the road was too difficult to walk, he lived in Jingzhou.

In the first year of Jian'an [AD 196], Cao Cao welcomed the emperor to Xuchang. Cao Cao had heard of Xun You's name, and wrote a book to recruit Xun You, so he promoted Xun You to be the prefect of Runan and entered as a minister.When Cao Cao saw Xun You for the first time, he was overjoyed, and Zhong You said to Xun Yu and Zhong Yao, "Gongda is a strange man. I have learned from him, so why worry about the world!" He was used as a military adviser.

In the third year of Jian'an [AD 198], he followed Cao Cao to conquer Zhang Xiu.Xun You said to Cao Cao: "Compared with Liu Biao, Zhang Xiu is stronger than Zhang Xiu. However, Zhang Xiu used his army to serve Liu Biao. If Liu Biao can't give up, he will inevitably separate. It's better to slow down the army and lure the enemy to come; if you are in a hurry, it will be inevitable. Help each other." Taizu refused, so he marched into the army and fought.Zhang Xiu was in a hurry, but Liu Biao rescued him.Cao Cao was defeated.Cao Cao said to Xun You, "Sure enough, it's as you said." Then he set up a surprise army to fight back and smashed it.

In the third year of Jian'an [AD 198], Cao Cao conquered Lv Bu from Wan to Xiapi. Lv Bu retreated and defended firmly.Xun You and Guo Jia said: "Lü Bu is brave but has no plans. Today he has lost all three battles, and his vigor is gone. The three armies are dominated by generals. If the leader is weak, the army has no will to fight. Even if Chen Gong has a plan, it is too late. Now Lü Bu's morale has not yet recovered, and Chen Gong's plan is still undecided, and he will make a quick attack." He then flooded the city with water from Yi and Si, the city collapsed, and Lü Bu was captured alive.

In the fifth year of Jian'an [AD 200], Liu Yan was rescued from Baima, and Xun You planned to behead Yan Liang.Break through the white horse and return, and send the baggage across the river to the west.Yuan Shao's army crossed the river in pursuit, and met Cao Cao's army.All the generals were afraid, and told Cao Cao to go back to guard the camp. Xun You said, "Now is the time to defeat the enemy, why go back!" Cao Cao looked at Xun You and smiled.He lured Yuan Shao's army by throwing away his luggage, and Yuan Shao's soldiers competed to grab him, causing chaos.Cao Cao ordered the Hui army to attack, defeated them, and beheaded their cavalry general Wen Chou, so Taizu and Yuan Shao refused to go to Guandu.When the food for the army was exhausted, Xun You said to Cao Cao: "Yuan Shao transported the food, and he will destroy Han Mengrui and underestimate the enemy." Taizu said: "Who can make it?" Xun You said: "Xu Huang can." He sent Xu Huang Reach Shi Huan and destroy it, and burn its baggage.Later Xu You came to surrender and said that Yuan Shao sent Chunyu Qiong and others to transport more than ten thousand soldiers to transport food, and the arrogant and lazy soldiers could be attacked.Everyone is puzzled.Only Xun You and Jia Xu advised Taizu to attack him.Cao Cao stayed with Xun You and Cao Hongshou.He led his troops to break it, beheading Qiong and others.Then Yuan Shao sent Zhang He and Gao Lan to surrender, but Cao Hong dared not use it. Xun You called Cao Hong and said, "Yuan Shao didn't use Zhang He's plan, and he came here in anger. Why was he confused?" Cao Hong accepted it.

In the seventh year of Jian'an [AD 202], he followed Cao Cao to discuss Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang in Liyang.

In the eighth year of Jian'an [AD 203], Cao Cao had just conquered Liu Biao, and Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang were fighting for Jizhou.Yuan Tan sent Simpi to ask for help, Cao Cao agreed, and asked the generals.Most of the generals believed that Liu Biao was strong and should be attacked first, while Tan and Shang were not enough to worry about.Xun You said: "The world is in chaos, and Liu Biao sits between Jiang and Han. There is no four local chronicles. The Yuan family occupied the land of the four states and had a hundred thousand armor. Ye, brothers are doing evil today, and this situation is not perfect. If two people work together, it will be difficult. Now take advantage of the chaos to attack, Hebei is settled, and you can't lose it at this time." Cao Cao said: "OK." He agreed. Yuan Tan asked for peace and went back to defeat Yuan Shang.Then Yuan Tan rebelled, and Xun You followed Cao Cao to kill Tan Yunanpi.In the peace of Jizhou, Cao Cao played the Son of Heaven and said: "Military commander Xun You, who has served as minister since the beginning, has never been conquered, and defeated the enemy before and after. It is all You's plan." So Xun Youling was named Shutinghou.

In the 12th year of Jian'an [AD 207], Cao Cao ordered to reward meritorious service, increase the city by [-], merge the first [-] households, and turn them into military divisions.At the beginning of Wei State, it was the order of Shangshu.

In the 19th year of Jian'an [AD 214], Xun You followed Cao Cao to conquer Sun Quan and died on the road.

Historical evaluation:

Chen Shou: ①Xun Youshu has almost exhausted his strategies, and he has been persuading them to change. ② You are deeply secretive and intelligent.

Cao Cao: ① Gongda is a very human being. I have to deal with him, so why worry about the world! ② Gong Da is stupid on the outside and wise on the inside, cowardly on the outside and brave on the inside, weak on the outside and strong on the inside, does not attack the good, does not work hard, wisdom is attainable, stupidity is beyond reach, although Yan Zi and Ning Wu cannot pass. ③Xun Gongda is also a true sage, the so-called "gentleness, courtesy, thrift, and humility".Confucius said that "Yan Pingzhong is good at making friends with others, and respects them after a long time", and Gongda is his person.

A certain history book: ① You Zhongzheng conspired, Funing inside and outside, resourceful and decisive. ②Your benevolence is based on morality, Ming is used to promote virtuous people, and there is no need to move around, seeking opportunities and opportunities. This can be called a great virtuous gentleman in modern times.

Historical Chronology:

[189], Dong Zhuo invaded Luoyang and began to control the central government.Jia Xu became the captain of Pingjin as a subordinate officer of the Taiwei, and was later promoted to the captain of the Kolu school.At that time, Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu was stationed in Shaanxi, and Jia Xu was in Niu Fu's army.

[192], Dong Zhuo was murdered by Wang Yun, Lu Bu and others.Soon, Niu Fu was also killed by his subordinates while fleeing, and everyone was terrified.Dong Zhuo's subordinates Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji and others had nothing to rely on, so they sent envoys to Chang'an to ask for pardon.Wang Yun was so upright that he didn't agree. Li Jue and others were even more frightened and didn't know what to do. They planned to disband their troops and flee back to their hometowns.In order to protect himself, Jia Xu came forward to stop them, saying: "I heard that Chang'an is going to kill all the Xiliang people. If you abandon the crowd and go alone, a pavilion chief can catch you. Why don't you lead the troops to the west and walk along the way?" Rein in the soldiers, then attack Chang'an, avenge Dong Zhuo, if you are lucky enough to succeed, you can conquer the whole country in the name of the court, if not, it is not too late to escape." This plan was adopted by everyone.In the name of avenging Dong Zhuo, Li Jue contacted Xiliang generals and led an army to attack Chang'an. By the time of Chang'an city, more than 10 people had gathered.Li Jue, Fan Chou, Li Meng and others besieged Chang'an City, but they were unable to conquer it because of its strong defenses.Later, the rebel soldiers in the city led Li Jue's army into the city and started a street battle with the guard Lv Bu. Lv Bu was defeated and fled with only a hundred cavalry.Li Jue and others plundered and plundered. More than ten thousand officials and civilians died, and the corpses piled up all over the road.For a time, there was a bloody storm in the capital, and the government and the people were in chaos.After the incident, Jia Xu was appointed as Zuo Fengyi.Li Jue and others wanted to make him a marquis based on Jia Xu's merits. Jia Xu said, "This is a strategy to save life. How can there be any credit?"Li Jue and others asked Jia Xu to serve as Shangshu Pushe. Jia Xu said: "Shangshu Pushe is the teacher of all officials and a role model for the world. I, Jia Xu, have never had much reputation and it is difficult to convince others. Even if I can enjoy vanity, What good will it do for the country?" So he changed his name to Jia Xu as Minister, in charge of selecting talents, and made many contributions in personnel affairs. Li Jue and others were close to Jia Xu, but at the same time they were very afraid of him.Soon, Jia Xu's mother died, Jia Xu resigned from office, and was later worshiped as Doctor Guanglu.

[195], Li Jue, Guo Si, and Fan Chou were suspicious of each other and fought for power and profit. When they fought, Li Jue sent the riding captain Hu Feng to stab Fan Chou to death.Soon, the conflict between Li and Guo became more and more intensified, and they began to fight. Li Jue asked Jia Xu to be General Xuanyi to help him.Later, Li and Guo made peace and released the hijacked Emperor Xian and courtiers. Jia Xu made great efforts for this, and then Jia Xu returned the official seal.At that time, General Duan Yan and Jia Xu were stationed in Huayin in the same county, and Jia Xu went to join Duan Yao.Jia Xu has always been well-known and admired by Duan Yan's army. Duan Yan is afraid that Jia Xu will seize his military power, but on the surface he treats Jia Xu very politely.After Jia Xu saw it, she felt uneasy.Nanyang Zhang Xiu had a secret relationship with Jia Xu, so Zhang Xiu sent someone to meet Jia Xu.When Jia Xu was leaving, someone said to Jia Xu, "Duan Yan treated you so well, why did you leave?" Rely on me, if I stay for a long time, I will definitely be harmed by him, and he must be very happy when I leave him, and he expects me to connect with foreign aid, and he will treat my family well. Zhang Xiu lacks counselors, and he is very willing to get me, so that my family and I will be happy It can be preserved." When Jia Xu arrived at Zhang Xiu's place, Zhang Xiu was overjoyed and led his descendants to greet him.And Duan Yan knew that Jia Xu had left, so he really treated his family kindly.

[198], Cao Cao marched south to Zhang Xiu, and besieged Rang City, where Zhang Xiu was defending.Not long after, Cao Cao heard that Yuan Shao wanted to take advantage of the false attack to take Xudu, so he immediately withdrew from Rangcheng.Zhang Xiu led his troops to follow and pursue, Liu Biao also sent Jingzhou troops to occupy Anzhong, cut off Cao Jun's retreat, and attempted to attack Cao Jun with Zhang Xiu.After Cao's victory, he quickly retreated northward.Zhang Xiu personally led his troops in pursuit, but Jia Xu dissuaded him, saying: "Don't pursue, you will lose if you pursue." Zhang Xiu refused to listen, and forced to pursue him, but was defeated by Cao Cao himself.At this time, Jia Xu said to Zhang Xiu: "Hurry up and chase again, and you will definitely win." Zhang Xiu said: "I didn't listen to your advice to get to this point. Now that I have lost, why should I chase again?" Said: "The situation has changed, and it will be profitable to go after it as soon as possible." Zhang Xiu followed Jia Xu's advice, collected scattered soldiers, and pursued them again, defeating Cao Cao's rearguard.After the victory, Zhang Xiu asked Jia Xu why he asked for advice. Jia Xu explained: "It's easy to understand. Although the general is good at using troops, he is not Cao Cao's opponent. Cao Cao has just withdrawn, and Cao Cao must personally kill the rear. Although our pursuers are skilled , but the generals are not as good as them, and their soldiers still have high morale, so I know you will be defeated, general. The reason why Cao Cao withdrew his troops before he tried his best must be that something happened in the rear, so after defeating the general's pursuers, he will definitely be defeated. Retreat with all your strength and leave others behind. Although the generals he left behind are powerful, they are not as good as the general, so I know that the general can win with defeated troops." Zhang Xiu was greatly impressed.

[199], Yuan Shao sent people to recruit Zhang Xiu, and made a friendship with Jia Xu.Zhang Xiu was about to agree, but Jia Xu rejected Yuan Shao's envoy in front of Zhang Xiu, and pointed out accurately that Yuan Shao could not tolerate others, and Cao Cao had three advantages in surrendering: Cao Cao coerced the emperor to order the princes, and his name was justified; Willing to win over allies; Cao Cao has great ambitions, and he will definitely be able to ignore the past.Zhang Xiu followed Jia Xu's suggestion and led the crowd to surrender to Cao Cao.Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard the news. He personally met Jia Xu, held his hand and said, "You are the one who makes my reputation known to the world!"Since Jizhou was occupied by Yuan Shao at that time, Jia Xu stayed to join the Air Force.

[200], Cao Cao and Yuan Shao fought at Guandu.Cao Jun's army was exhausted, Cao Cao asked Jia Xu for advice, Jia Xu said: "You are better than Yuan Shao in shrewdness, bravery, employing people, and decisiveness. If you have an opportunity, you can win quickly." Cao Cao praised him, and later seized the opportunity to attack Wuchao and defeated Yuan Shao in one fell swoop.After Hebei was pacified, Cao Cao led Jizhou Mu and appointed Jia Xu as Taizhong doctor.

[208], Cao Cao occupied Jingzhou and wanted to take the opportunity to go down the river eastward.Jia Xu dissuaded him, saying that he should appease the people and wait for the opportunity, but Cao Cao refused, and was defeated in the Battle of Chibi.

[211], Cao Cao fought Ma Chao in Weinan.Later, Ma Chaojun was unfavorable and asked for the land to be demarcated, and sent his son as a hostage.Jia Xu believes that he can pretend to agree on the surface to paralyze the opponent, but actually actively prepares and waits for an opportunity to wipe out the enemy.Cao Cao asked Jia Xu how to defeat the enemy, and Jia Xu said, "Separate them." Cao Cao adopted his strategy and wrote a book to separate Ma Chao and Han Sui, causing them to strife.Seeing that the time was right, Cao Cao took the initiative to attack the Guanzhong Army and returned with a big victory.

[217], Cao Cao still did not establish a prince.Cao Pi once sent someone to ask Jia Xu for advice, and Jia Xu said: "I hope that the general will cultivate moral character, study hard, work tirelessly day and night, and not violate the morality of being a son. This is enough." Cao Pi followed his advice and deliberately honed his skills. Own.Later, Cao Cao asked Jia Xu privately what he thought of Li Si, Jia Xu kept silent, Cao Cao asked him why he didn't answer, Jia Xu said, "I'm thinking of Yuan Shao and Liu Biao." Prince.Jia Xu thought that he was not an old minister of Cao Cao, but he had profound strategies, so he was afraid of Cao Cao's suspicion, so he adopted a self-protection strategy, kept himself behind closed doors, did not communicate with others in private, and his children did not marry powerful people. All scholars admired him very much.

[220], Cao Pi came to the throne, granted Jia Xu the title of Taiwei, and became the Marquis of Weishou Township, adding 300 food towns, with a total of 800 households before and after.He also divided Shiyi into 200, made the youngest son Jia Fan the Marquis of Liehou, and made the eldest son Jia Mu the captain-in-law.

[223], Cao Pi's first expedition to Soochow ended in failure.At the beginning, Cao Pi asked Ji Yu Jia Xu: "I want to unify the world, which one should be conquered first, Wu or Shu?" Jia Xu suggested that the country should be governed first and then use force.In the same year, Jia Xu died.

Historical evaluation:

Chen Shou: Jia Xu, there are almost no strategies left behind, and after reaching the contingency, it is good and flat!
Yan Zhong: It is strange to boast that you are good and flat.

Historical Chronology:

[196] Cao Cao's powerful counselor Xi Zhicai died, and he sought talent from Xun Yu, who was Cambodian Guo Jia.Cao Cao summoned Guo Jia to discuss major events in the world. He said with great joy: "He is the one who can help me achieve great things!"The table is the sacrificial wine of the Air Force.

[197] Cao Cao was defeated by Zhang Xiuxin, and Yuan Shao and Xin were humiliated.Cao asked Ji Xunyu and Guo Jia about the situation in the north.Guo Jia, who had just arrived, made a detailed and three-dimensional analysis of the situation between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, and put forward the famous theory of ten victories and ten defeats, persuading Cao Cao to conquer Lu Bu.Guo Jia's analysis was smooth, meticulous and convincing. It not only revived the fighting spirit of Cao Jun's soldiers, but also helped Cao Cao draw up long-term and short-term combat goals, thus formally sending himself into the core of Cao Cao's military think tank.

[198] Lu Bu defeated Liu Bei and Cao Cao's reinforcements and took over some bandit troops from Mount Tai, which became stronger and occupied Xuzhou.Cao Cao shifted his strategic focus to the Eastern Front and launched an offensive against Lu Bu.Lu Bu stood firm after suffering setbacks in the early stage. The battle lasted for more than half a year. Cao Cao saw that the soldiers were exhausted and prepared to give up.Guo Jia and Xun You saw a chance of victory.Guo Jia used Xiang Yu as an example to persuade Cao Cao, and put forward the point of view that if the spirit of the brave but not resourceful is exhausted, he will soon be defeated, and persuaded Cao Cao to attack urgently.Cao Cao followed the remonstrance, and indeed he captured and killed Lu Bu in one go.

[199] Cao Cao sent Liu Bei and Zhu Ling to unite with Yuan Shu.Guo Jia saw through Liu Bei's wolfish ambitions, and remonstrated with Cheng Yu and Dong Zhao, "Liu Bei cannot be condemned!"Later, Liu Bei killed Che Zhou and rebelled. He joined forces with the East China Sea bandits and gathered tens of thousands of people to join forces with Yuan Shao. (For this section, refer to "Fu Zi" and "Zi Zhi Tong Jian". There is no relevant record in "Three Kingdoms", only see Pei's note. However, there is a completely opposite record in "Wei Shu", saying that someone persuaded Cao Cao to kill Liu Bei , Guo Jia persuaded Cao Cao not to hurt the hearts of the people because of one harm, Cao Cao laughed and attached.)
[200 years] Cao Cao condemned the general to attack Liu Bei, but he couldn't overcome it, and wanted to ask for it.All the generals were afraid of Yuan Shao's sneak attack to dissuade Cao Cao. Cao Cao was uncertain and asked Guo Jia for advice.Guo Jia said: "Yuan Shao's character is slow and suspicious. Even if he wanted to attack secretly, he would not be very quick. But Liu Bei's power has just gathered, and the hearts of the people are not attached. If we carry out a blitzkrieg, we will surely win." So Cao Cao sent his troops to the east and defeated Liu Bei. He captured his wife, captured Guan Yu, and defeated the East China Sea bandits who joined forces with Liu Bei.

The little overlord of Jiangdong had just achieved the hegemony of Jiangdong. At that time, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were confronting each other in Guandu, so they had the heart to seek the original.Cao Jun was terrified when he heard the news. Only Guo Jia said: "Sun Ce just annexed Jiangdong, and all he killed were heroes who won the hearts of the people and supported the dead. Sun Ce himself was reckless and neglected to guard against it. There are many people, but it is still as easy to deal with as a lone family. If there is an assassin who ambushes, he can only rely on the bravery of one person. I think he must die at the hands of ordinary people." (Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao have been assassinated before) Sure enough, Sun Ce He died in the assassination of Xu Gong's family guest in that year, and his plan to advance northward was ruined in infancy.

[203] Yuan Shao was dead, and Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan were driven back to Liyang.The generals wanted to take advantage of the victory to break through Eryuan.Guo Jia said that Cao Cao said that Tan Shangsu had always been dissatisfied with each other, and there was Guo Tu. Every time a counselor like Ji Ji gets involved, he must turn against each other.It is better to conquer Liu Biao in the south first, wait for his change, and then attack him after he changes.Cao Cao agreed very much, so he marched south. When the army reached Xiping, Tan Shang turned up, and Yuan Tan was defeated and left Baoping.Cao Cao easily defeated Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan respectively.That year, Guo Jia was granted the title of Marquis of Weiyang Ting.

[205] Guo Jia suggested that Cao Cao recruit more famous people from Qing, Ji, You, and Bing prefectures to win the hearts of the people and thoroughly consolidate the current control and resistance.Cao Cao adopted his opinion, and even reused Chen Lin, who had once slandered him, which really had the effect of a thousand dollars.

[207] Yuan Shang fled to Wuhuan.All the generals said: "Yuan Shang is like a bereaved dog. The barbarians outside the Guan are greedy and unjust and will not support them. If there is another expedition, Liu Bei will definitely provoke Liu Biao to attack Xuchang. What if there is any change?" Guo Jiajin said: "The Hu people are far away, so they must be unprepared now. A sudden attack will definitely destroy them. Yuan Shao is kind to the Hu people. If Yuan Shang is still alive, it will be a hidden danger sooner or later. Now that the four states are not stable, the Yuan family still has a great influence. At this time, when the barbarians make a move, the old ministers will respond, and the people and barbarians will move and the rear will be unstable. Liu Biao is a politician who only knows how to sit and talk. He knows that his ability is not enough to control Liu Bei, so he will definitely do his best to guard against him. Use. Although it is an expedition to the Void Kingdom, once it is done once and for all, there will be no future troubles." Cao Cao followed Guo Jia's advice and immediately marched into Liaodong.

When they arrived in Yicheng, Guo Jia felt that the advancing speed was still too slow, so he said: "Soldiers are precious. Speed ​​is the most important thing. Now that you are traveling thousands of miles, you have too much luggage, and you are moving slowly. If the other party notices it, you must take precautions. It is better to leave the luggage and lighten it. Advance quickly, and attack them unprepared." Cao Cao then asked Tian Chou, who was familiar with the geography of Liaodong, to take a small road to attack Liucheng by surprise, and smashed the enemy's haste.This battle has also become a classic battle example in the history of Chinese warfare, which has a far-reaching impact.On the way back from Liucheng, perhaps because of unacceptable water and soil, bad weather, overworked day and night, Guo Jia died of illness, and a generation of stars died.

Historical evaluation:

Chen Shou: ①Guo Jia is talented in strategy and strategy. He is a rare scholar in the world. ② Jiashentong has a strategy to achieve things.

Cao Cao: ① It has been ten years since the military sacrificial wine to Guo Jia.Every time there is a big discussion, make changes in front of the enemy.The minister's policy is undecided, and Jia Zhe will make it.To pacify the world, seeking merit is the highest.Unfortunately, he was short-lived and his career was not over.The memory of Si Jiaxun is truly unforgettable. ②Guo Jia, the military sacrificial wine, is loyal, good-natured, and well-rounded.Every time there is a big discussion, the court is full of speeches, and it is dealt with in the middle, and there is no strategy left.Zizai army, for more than ten years, rode together, sat on the same seat, poultry Lu Bu in the east, and Suigu in the west, beheaded Yuan Tan, and the crowd of Pingshuo land, crossed the dangerous fortress, settled Wuwan, shocked the power In Liaodong, Yuan Shang is the owl.Although the power of heaven is false, it is easy to be used as a guide, but when facing the enemy, he will swear his life, vicious and rebellious, and he will be honored and honored. ③ Only filial piety is the only way to know loneliness, and all the kings are lonely, but filial piety is the least.Everything in the world is going to happen, and if you want to deal with it in the future, if you die in middle age, your life will be your husband.Cherishing and honoring filial piety cannot be taken to heart.His people see current affairs and military affairs, and they are more than others.In addition, many people are afraid of disease, and there are epidemics in the south. As the saying goes, "If I go to the south, I will not survive."However, with a total discussion, Yun first decides Jing.This is not only the loyalty of the plan, but also the desire to make meritorious deeds and abandon fate.It's all about people's hearts, how can people forget it! ④ Those who make a great cause alone must be this person.

Zhong Yao moved the residents of Guanzhong to Luoyang, recruited rebels, and took in refugees.A few years later, the population of the first generation in Guanzhong was enriched.Cao Cao used Zhong Yao's hard work to show him that he was a former military adviser.

Historical Chronology:

In 192, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan fought at Jieqiao, and Gongsun Zan was strong, so Julu prefect Li Shao and others defected from Yuan Shao and went to Gongsun Zan.Yuan Shao sent Dong Zhao to serve as the prefect of Julu. After Dong Zhao took office, he falsely passed on Yuan Shao's call to action and beheaded Sun Husband and others who were planning to commit crimes in the county. The entire county was shocked.Dong Zhao immediately appeased Julu County, which was praised by Yuan Shao.At this time, Li Pan, the prefect of Wei County, was killed by soldiers, and Yuan Shao asked Dong Zhao to be the prefect of Wei County.At that time, there was a great chaos in Weijun County, and tens of thousands of enemy troops sent envoys to ask for business.Dong Zhao agreed on the surface, but secretly used estrangement, and took the opportunity to conquer, and delivered three good news within two days.

In 194, because Dong Zhao's younger brother Dong Fang was in Zhang Miao's army, and Zhang Miao had conflicts with Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao listened to the slander and wanted to punish Dong Zhao.Therefore, Dong Zhao asked to go to see Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and took the opportunity to leave Yuan Shao, but Zhang Yang stayed in Hanoi halfway.At this time, Cao Cao was in command of Yanzhou and wanted to use the road to meet Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty. Zhang Yang refused at first, but finally agreed under Dong Zhao's persuasion.Dong Zhao also wrote letters for Cao Cao to contact Li Jue, Guo Si and others.

In 195, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty returned east and arrived in Anyi.Dong Zhao followed Zhang Yang to meet him and was worshiped as Yilang.

In 196, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty arrived in Luoyang, and Han Xian, Yang Feng, Dong Cheng and others were at odds and fought for power with each other.Dong Zhao faked a letter from Cao Cao to win over Yang Feng. Yang Feng was very happy, and urged all the generals to submit a letter to Cao Cao as General Zhendong, and Dong Zhao was promoted to Fu Jie Ling.Soon, Cao Cao came to see Emperor Xian of Han and asked Dong Zhao for advice. Dong Zhao suggested that Cao Cao move Emperor Xian of Han, and Cao Cao welcomed Emperor Xian of Han to Xuchang according to his plan.Yang Feng and others were dissatisfied and sent troops to stop them, but they were defeated and took refuge in Yuan Shu.

In 198, Dong Zhao was promoted to Henan Yin.At this time, Zhang Yang was killed by his subordinates. Cao Cao sent Dong Zhao to win over Zhang Yang's remnants. Dong Zhao successfully completed the task and was promoted to Jizhou Mu.

In 200, Yuan Shao sent Yan Liang to attack Dongjun, and Dong Zhao became the prefect of Weijun, and followed Cao Cao to conquer Yan Liang.

In 207, when Cao Cao made an expedition to Wuhuan, it was difficult to transport grain. Under Dong Zhao's suggestion, he dug the Pinglu and Quanzhou two canals into the sea to transport grain, which solved the problem of grain transport.Cao Cao granted Dong Zhao the title of Marquis of Qianqiu Ting on the table, and transferred him to Sikong to offer wine.Dong Zhao suggested restoring the fifth-class title, and lobbied the officials, suggesting that Cao Cao be given nine tins.The titles of Wei Gong and Wei Wang that Cao Cao later accepted were all created by Dong Zhao.

In 219, Guan Yu besieged Fancheng, and Sun Quan secretly contacted Cao Cao. The officials believed that it should be kept secret, but Dong Zhao thought that the news should be leaked to Guan Yu, which made Guan Yu and Sun Quan suspicious of each other and led to internal strife.Cao Cao acted according to his plan, but Guan Yu hesitated, and soon failed due to the surprise attack of Soochow.

Birthplace: Chengde, Huainan

Posthumous title: Jinghou

Achievement: planning

Family Members: Father: Liu Pu, Mother: Xiu, Brother: Liu Huan, Son: Liu Tao

Historical Chronology:

Ye was seven years old, and his mother was sick and sleepy.

In the thirteenth year of Ye's year, his elder brother Huan said: "The words of the deceased mother can be carried out." Huan said: "That's OK!"

Ye was more than twenty years old at the time, and he was worried about it, but he had no fate.Hui Taizu sent envoys to the state to ask questions.Ye went to see him and stayed for a few days in order to discuss the situation.

From Taizu to Shouchun, there was a bandit Chen Ce in the border of Lujiang River, tens of thousands of people, guarding in danger.When the enemy is defeated, the strategy must be restrained, as Ye said.Taizu returned, and Biye was Sikongcang Caozhu.

Taizu conquered Zhang Lu, and Zhuan Ye was the master book.When we arrived in Hanzhong, the mountains were steep and difficult to climb, and the army food was quite scarce.Taizu said: "How can there be no such monsters in this country? Our army has less food, so it is better to return quickly."Ye Ce Lu Keke, adding food and roads did not continue, even though he went out, the army still could not be complete, Taizu Chibai said, "It is better to attack." Then he marched in and sent out more crossbows to shoot at his camp.Lu Ben ran, and Hanzhong was leveled.Ye Jin said: "The Duke of Ming executed Dong Zhuo with [-] soldiers, defeated Yuan Shao in the north, conquered Liu Biao in the south, merged ten counties in nine prefectures, and consolidated eight of them. He shocked the world and frightened overseas. Now let us take Hanzhong and the people of Shu to watch the wind, Break the courage and fall, push forward, Shu can be passed down. Liu Bei, an outstanding man, is too late, and the days of Shu are shallow, and the people of Shu are not confident. Now that Hanzhong is broken, the people of Shu are terrified, and their momentum is self-defeating. The gods of the public can suppress them because of their inclinations. If you are small and slow, Zhuge Liang is good at governing and you are the prime minister, and Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are the leaders of the three armies and you are the generals. If you don't take it now, you will worry about it later." Taizu refused.The army then returned.

Ye returned from Hanzhong and became the commander of the marching army and the leader of the army.

In the first year of Yankang, Meng Da, the general of Shu, surrendered.Da was tolerant and talented, and Emperor Wen loved him so much that he made Da the prefect of Xincheng, and he was a regular attendant on cavalry.Ye thought that "Da has the heart to win, and if he relies on his talents and skills, he must not be grateful. The new city is connected to Wu and Shu. If there is any abnormality, it will cause trouble for the country." It was not easy for Emperor Wen, and Hou Da finally rebelled.

In the first year of Huangchu, he took Ye as his servant and conferred the title of Marquis of Guannei.

In the fifth year of Huangchu, fortunately at Sikou in Guangling, he ordered the armies of Jing and Yangzhou to advance side by side.Gathered the ministers and asked, "Should the power come by itself?" Xian said: "Your Majesty's personal conquest, the power is terrifying, and the whole country will respond. I dare not think that the ministers entrusted by the public will come by themselves." Ye said: "He It is said that your majesty wants to lead himself with the weight of ten thousand times, but the one who surpasses the rivers and lakes lies in other generals, and he must rein in his troops to deal with things, and he has not advanced or retreated." The king stopped for a long time, and the power and fruit did not come. The emperor is the master.Yun: "Qing's plan is right. You should think about killing the two thieves for me, but you can't just know their feelings."

Emperor Ming ascended the throne and entered the Marquis of Dongting, with three hundred households in the town.

In the sixth year of Taihe, he worshiped the doctor of Taizhong with illness.

For a while, he was Da Honghe, who abdicated in the second year of his reign, and returned to Taizhong doctor, died.

Historical evaluation:

Fu Zi: With Ye's wisdom and authority, if you live with virtue and righteousness, and act with loyalty and trust, how can you add to the ancient sages?It is not a pity to rely solely on talent and wisdom, not to share the latitude and longitude with the world, not to push the heart on the inside, and to be trapped in the vulgar outside, so that the pawn cannot be at ease in the world!

Chen Shou: Although Liu Ye is clear about his morality and career, he is different from Xun You, but his planning is expected to be his ethics.

In 209, Jiang Ji came to Qiaocheng. Cao Cao wanted to relocate the people in Huainan and asked Jiang Ji for his opinion.Jiang Ji objected, but Cao Cao refused to listen.

In 249, Sima Yi launched a coup, and Jiang Ji sent troops to Luoshui floating bridge to attack Cao Shuang.Afterwards, Jiang Ji was enfeoffed as the Marquis of the capital, with 700 households in Shiyi. Jiang Ji resolutely refused, but was not allowed.In the same year, Jiang Ji died.

Historical evaluation:

Chen Shou: Jiang Ji's strategy and strategy, a rare scholar in the world, although he is clear about his morality and career, is different from Xun You, but his plans are expected, which is his ethics.

Cao Pi: Qing is both civil and military, and his ambition is generous.

Cao Rui: The minister of the husband's bones is also the battle of the master.Economical talent and civil and military, service and diligence, every military and state event, there are always memorials, loyalty and hard work, I am very strong.

Pei Songzhi: Although the analogy of helping jackals and otters is similar to haiku, its meaning and purpose can be sought.

("Wei and Jin Shiyu" said: Liu Fang and Sun Zi were in charge of the central affairs for a long time, Xia Houxian, Cao Zhao and others were dissatisfied, Liu and Sun were afraid that these people would lose power after they assisted the government, so they urged Cao Rui to change to Cao Shuang and Sima Yi to assist the government .)

Historical evaluation:

Chen Shou: ①Liu Fang Wenhan, Quan heard that at that time, he was elegant and bright, which is why the voice of ridicule and flattery was too much. ② Putting talents aside is considered superior to Sun Zi, but self-study is not as good as it.He was good at obeying the Lord, but he didn't show his gains and losses. He suppressed Simpi and helped Wang Si, so he was ridiculed in the world.However, because of the remonstrance of the officials, they support and praise their righteousness, and they also report the profits and losses closely, and do not exclusively guide flattery.

Pei Songzhi: At that time, Liu was appointed as a full-time official. He kept secrets and dealt with all kinds of political affairs.Let go of the question of being entrusted, when it is judged by safety and danger, and it is even more in violation of its right, there is nothing appropriate.Is it reasonable to be appointed by others?

Historical Chronology:

Sun Zi was very smart when he was young. He lost his parents at the age of three and was raised by his brother and sister-in-law. Wang Yun of the same county attached great importance to him.When Cao Cao was appointed as Sikong, he was conscripted as an official, but Sun Zi was unable to take up the post because he moved to avoid his enemies.Later, Sun Zi became an official under the persuasion of his friend Jia Kui. He successively served as county magistrate and joined the prime minister's military.

[213] Cao Cao was called Wei Gong, and the Wei State regime was first established, and Sun Zi and Liu Fang were both secretary ministers.

[220] Cao Pi succeeded to the throne, and Liu Fang and Sun Zi were transferred to the secretary Zuo Cheng.Later, Wei Guo changed his secretary to Zhongshu, and Sun Zi was appointed as Zhongshu Ling, added to Shizhong, granted the title of Marquis of Guanzhong, and mastered the secrets together with Zhongshu Supervisor Liu Fang.

[222 years] Sun Zi entered the Marquis of Guannei.

[226] Weiming Emperor Cao Rui succeeded to the throne, and Liu Fang and Sun Zi were even more favored and trusted, and they added Sanqi as regular servants.Liu Jinfang was the Marquis of Xixiang, and Sun Zi was the Marquis of Leyangting.

[227]
Zhuge Liang, Prime Minister of Shu, came out of Tunnan Zheng. Some people persuaded Wei Mingdi Cao Rui to attack Shu. Sun Zi thought that it would be better to defend according to the danger and wait for Wu Shu to be exhausted. Therefore, Cao Rui gave up the plan of attacking Shu.Later, when Peng Qi rebelled in the state of Wu, someone proposed to take the opportunity to attack Wu. Sun Zi dissuaded him again, thinking that Peng Qi's rebellion would not cause great harm to the state of Wu, and soon Peng Qi was defeated.

[232] The state of Wu sent general Zhou He across the sea to Liaodong to lure Gongsun Yuan.Cao Rui wanted to invite him to discuss it, but most of the court councilors thought it was impossible, but Sun Zi agreed to implement the plan, and the result was a big failure.Sun Zi became the Marquis of Zuoxiang because of his meritorious service.

[233] Liu Fang and Sun Zi both joined Shizhong and Doctor Guanglu.

[238]
Sima Yi pacified Liaodong, and Liu Fang and Sun Zi were entrusted with the ranks of the county for their meritorious service.Liu Fang is the Marquis of Fangcheng, and Sun Zi is the Marquis of Zhongdu.In the same year, Wei Ming Emperor Cao Rui was critically ill, and planned to recruit Yan Wang Cao Yu as a general to assist the government together with the leading general Xia Houxian, Wuwei general Cao Shuang, Tunqi school captain Cao Zhao, and Xiaoqi general Qin Lang.Cao Yu was humble and declined the appointment.Liu Fang and Sun Zi took the opportunity to say that Cao Yu was not capable enough, praised Cao Shuang, and urged Cao Rui to recruit Sima Yi back to assist the government. ("Wei and Jin Shiyu" said: Liu Fang and Sun Zi were in charge of the central affairs for a long time, Xia Houxian, Cao Zhao and others were dissatisfied, Liu and Sun were afraid that these people would lose power after they assisted the government, so they urged Cao Rui to change to Cao Shuang and Sima Yi to assist the government .) Finally, Cao Rui summoned Cao Shuang, Liu Fang, Sun Zi, and Sima Yi who had rushed back to be ordered to remove Cao Yu, Xia Houxian, Cao Zhao, and Qin Lang from their official posts.

[239] Cao Rui passed away, Cao Fang succeeded to the throne, and Liu Fang and Sun Zi each added 300 households.Sun Zi merged a total of 1000 households before, and granted his beloved son Tinghou, the second son Qi Duwei, and the remaining sons were all doctors.

[240 years] The imperial court added Sun Ziyou Guanglu doctor, gold seal and purple ribbon, and three divisions of Yitong.

[245 years] Sun Zi served as the general of Wei and still received the order of Zhongshu.

[246]
The imperial court also named Sun Zi's son Tinghou.Both Liu Fang and Sun Zi abdicated their thrones due to their old age, and they still went to court as princes on the first lunar month of each month, and they were specially promoted. ("Zi Bie Zhuan" contains: Cao Shuang monopolized power and changed the old system. Sun Zi didn't want to occupy an important position without power, so he called his illness and abdicated.)
[249] Sima Yi launched a coup to kill Cao Shuang, and Sun Zi was reinstated as a servant, and received the order of Zhongshu.

[250 years] Sun Zi abdicated again and returned home.

[251] Sun Zi died.

Historical evaluation:

Chen Shou: ① Sun Zi was diligent and cautious, and he was in charge of the mouthpiece. Quan heard that at the time, he was elegant and inappropriate. ②Liu Fangcai is superior to Sun Zi, but self-study is not as good.He was good at obeying the Lord, but he didn't show his gains and losses. He suppressed Simpi and helped Wang Si, so he was ridiculed in the world.However, because of the remonstrance of the officials, they support and praise their righteousness, and they also report the profits and losses closely, and do not exclusively guide flattery.

Pei Songzhi: Sun Yu was a full-time official at that time. He was responsible for keeping secrets and dealing with all kinds of political affairs.The question of capital being entrusted should be judged by safety and danger, and there is nothing wrong with going against it.Is it reasonable to be appointed by others?

His real name was changed from Yan to Lang.

The Han emperor was in Chang'an, the Kwantung army rose up, and Lang became Tao Qianzhi.Talk to Zhao Yu and others about Qian and said: "The righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period, there is nothing like asking the princes to be king. Today, Ziyue is in Xijing, and it is appropriate to send envoys to obey the king's orders." Qian then sent Yu Fengzhang to Chang'an.The son of heaven expressed his intentions and paid homage to General Anton.Yi Yu was the prefect of Guangling and the prefect of Lang Kuaiji.

Sun Ce crossed the river to seek territory.Lang Gong Cao Yufan thought that force could not be resisted, it was better to avoid it.Lang thought that as a Han official, he should protect the city, so he raised his troops and planned a battle. He was defeated and floated to Dongye.Policy and pursuit, breaking it.Lang is the policy.

According to Taizu's representation, Lang spread from Qu'a to Jianghai, and even for many years.Pay homage to admonishing the doctor, and participate in the air force.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Wei State, the prefect of Wei County was led by the army to sacrifice wine, and moved to Shaofu, Fengchang, and Dali.

Emperor Wen took the throne, moved to the royal doctor, and was granted the title of Marquis of Anling Ting.

And Emperor Wen Jianyan, changed to Sikong, and entered the title of Marquis of Leping Township.

Emperor Ming ascended the throne, enfeoffed as Marquis of Lanling, increased the town by five hundred, and merged the first thousand or two hundred households.When I went to the Mausoleum of Empress Wenzhao in Ye Province, I saw that the people may have shortcomings.It was time to repair the palace, and Lang Shangshu said: "Your Majesty has come to the throne, and the edicts have been issued repeatedly, and the people and the people are all happy. The ministers are envoys to go north, go against the road, and hear about the corvee, and they can get rid of them. Many. Originally, His Majesty once again kept the listeners of Rijiu in order to control the bandits. In the past, the Great Yu wanted to save the world from great troubles, so he first humbled his palace, frugalized his food and clothing, and used his energy to make use of Kyushu. In order to broaden the borders of his sons, ([-]) his husband was poorer than Gusu, so he also arranged for his body and family, frugal his family to benefit the country, and used his energy to cover the five lakes and sweep the three rivers, to gain power in China, and to dominate China. Han Wenwen , Jing also wanted to expand his ancestral business and increase his admiration, so he was able to cut his mind on the platform of a hundred gold, show frugality in the clothes of Yiti, reduce the eunuchs at home without making contributions, and pay for farming and mulberry in other provinces, and use energy to claim peace The reason why Xiaowu was able to strengthen his military power and expand his foreign territory was because his ancestors had enough food and animals, so he was able to achieve great success. Huo Qubing, a general of the middle class, still thought that the Xiongnu had not been destroyed, and he could not rule the mansion. .Ming’s sympathy for the distant ones is a little closer, while those for outside affairs are simple. From the beginning of the Han Dynasty and its Zhongxing, it was all after the Jin Gelue’s dorm, and then the Feng Que was destroyed, and Deyang started together. Before the founding of the present, it is enough to use the Liechao Hui and Chong The queen of Hua is enough to use the order of internal officials, and Hualin and Tianyuan are enough to use exhibitions and banquets. If they first become the Wei of Changhe and use them to pay tribute from distant people, build cities and use them to surpass them and become a country. , and everything else, and a good year. If one takes hard farming and farming as one's work, and prepares for military preparations as one's work, then the country will have no grievances, the household registration will grow, the people will fill the army, and the invaders will not welcome, and the army will not be enough. "Turn to Situ.

Taihe died in the second year.

Historical evaluation:

"Book of Wei": Lang Gao is talented and elegant, but his personality is strict and generous, he is dignified, respectful and frugal, and he has nothing to show courtesy in marriage.He often ridiculed the world for being good at giving, but he didn't care about the poor and humble, so he used money first.

Chen Shou: ①Wang Lang was rich in culture and wealth, and was honest and magnificent for a while. ②Although they are poor and poor, they don’t plan for the day and night, but they accept relatives and old relatives, divide more and divide less, and do righteousness.

Sun Ce: With elegance, you can give way without harm.

Hua Xin promoted Xiaolian as a doctor; he resigned because of illness.

In [-] A.D. (the sixth year of Zhongping), Hua Xin was appointed as Shang Shulang.

In 1990 AD (the first year of Chuping), Dong Zhuo moved his capital.Hua Xin begged for the order of Gu, and later traveled from Lantian to Nanyang due to illness.Yuan Shu was in Nanyang, so he took Hua Xin in.Hua Xin advised Yuan Shu to attack Dong Zhuo, but Yuan Shu refused.Hua Xin resigned from Yuan Shu and went east to Xuzhou to serve as the prefect of Yuzhang.Hua Xin is honest, fair and efficient, and is deeply loved by the people.

In [-] AD (the first year of Jian'an), Liu Yao died of illness.Liu Yao's former ministry wanted to serve Hua Xin as the main force.Hua Xin refused because he was a minister.

In [-] AD (the fourth year of Jian'an), Sun Ce wanted to take Yuzhang, so he sent Yu Fan to persuade Huaxin to surrender.Hua Xin knew he was powerless to fight Sun Ce, so he surrendered.Sun Ce treated Hua Xin with courtesy.Later Sun Ce died.

In [-] AD (the fifth year of Jian'an), Cao Cao conquered Huaxin and returned to the court under the order of the emperor.Sun Quan intended to keep Hua Xin in Jiangnan.Hua Xin said: "The general should be ordered by the emperor, and at the same time be close to Cao Cao."

In June of [-] AD (the fourth year of Taihe), Cao Zhen attacked Shu.In August of the same year, Hua Xin wrote: "Sending troops is a waste of manpower and material resources, which is harmful to the people and not beneficial to the country. Moreover, the terrain of Shu is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The Taizu and the first emperor successively attacked, and it is not good to send troops." He also advised: "First pay attention to governing the way, and take the conquest as the next thing." When it rained heavily, it was difficult for Cao Zhen to advance with his troops.Cao Rui ordered Cao Zhen to return to his teacher.

Sun Sheng: In the world of great elegance, one must first examine the period of invisibility and magnificence to determine the origin. Otherwise, it is included to protect one's body, and Tai is to act righteously to achieve the way.Xin neither has the style of barbarian, bright Tao, nor the practice of kings and ministers, so he scratches his heart by the theory of evil Confucianism, and puts his arms in the hands of the mausoleum disciples.In the past, Xu and Cai lost their positions and were not allowed to be listed among the princes. When the governor of the state came, the people of Lu thought it a disgrace.Fang Zhi Yu Xin, who is to blame!

Today, the captives will think that the army will have no end, and they will not be able to retreat. If you return to the army, you will cross the danger of Baitan from Lulongkou, and go out. In an empty place, the roads are close and convenient, so as to cover up its unpreparedness, you can kill the birds without fighting." Taizu said: "Good." Then he led the army back, and placed a large wooden watch on the side of the water and said: "Fang This summer and summer, the roads are impassable, and after autumn and winter, the army will resume its march." When the captives waited for the horse to see it, they sincerely thought that the army was going.The Taizu ordered Chou to guide the crowd to the village, went up Xuwu Mountain, left Lulong, Li Pinggang, climbed Bailangdui, and went to Liucheng for more than two hundred li, the captives were shocked.Shan Yu came to Chen by himself, Taizu fought with him, and made a big victory, and chased north to Liucheng.The army also entered the fortress, and was granted the title of meritorious deed, and the title of Marquis of Chou Ting, with five hundred households in the town.

Liaodong beheaded Yuan Shangshou, ordering "those who dare to cry in the three armies be beheaded."Chou thought that taste was established by Shang, but went to hang sacrifice.Taizu didn't ask either.

From the expedition to Jingzhou, Taizu recalled the great achievements of Chou, and hated listening to Chou before, saying: "It is the ambition of becoming a man, but it is a loss of the king's law and great system." So he returned to the former title.Shu Shang Shu Chen Cheng, swear by death.Taizu didn't listen, and wanted to invite him to worship him, but he didn't accept it when he counted to four.It is not acceptable to use Xia Houyuan's persuasion.Taizu knew that he could not be subdued, so he worshiped him as Yilang.He died at the age of 46.

Historical evaluation:

Chen Shou: Tian Chou is good at reading and fencing.

So-and-so: Although Tian Chou is young, he is often called strange.True righteous people also.

Cao Cao: ① Elegant and elegant, loyal to martial arts and written again, harmonious with his subordinates, cautious in matters, time-sensitive, reasonable in advance and retreat.Youzhou began to be disturbed, Hu and Han intertwined, separated and separated, and lost their homes.Chou led his family to take refuge in Wuzhong Mountain, resisting Lulong in the north, guarding the key point in the south, quiet and vague, plowing and then eating, the people obeyed, and the salty shared their support.And Yuan Shao's father and son's power was added to Shuoye, and they married Karasuma far away, and they were the first and last, and they called each other back and forth, and they never fell into trouble.The rear ministers were ordered to take the army to Yixian County, and the long-term drive came here. Chen's power to discuss Hu was like Guangwu's Jianyan policy, and Xue Gong's Huainan.He also made Lubu, the chief minister of the trilogy, go out to lure the Hu people, and the Han people might come because of death, and Karasuma heard the shock.When Wang Brigade went out of the fortress, Tuyou had more than [-] miles in the mountains, and he had five hundred soldiers in command. He guided the valley, then destroyed Karasuma, and cleared the frontier of the fortress.Chou Wenwu is effective, righteousness is commendable, and sincerity should be favored and rewarded for its beauty. ② Lingling Tianchou, who was extremely noble, suffered from the chaos of Rongxia in Zhizhou, led him to the deep mountains, and studied the essence of taste, and the people followed him to become a city.Yuan thief is prosperous, and his orders are unyielding.Be generous and keep your will to honor Allah.And Gu Feng ordered Hebei to be conquered, and then he conquered Youdu, and ordered the Hu Kou to be ordered more politely.After receiving the administration in the first place, Chen Jian attacked the route of Hu Qi Road, and led the people of Qishan to Hua at one time, and opened the frontier to guide them to serve as envoys.After beheading and beheading the white wolf, he drove him to Liucheng for a long time, and he was very powerful.

Pei Songzhi: Tian Chou should not be ordered by Yuan Shao and his son, because it is not righteous.Therefore, follow the rules of Wei Zu and build Lulong's policy.As a result, Yuan Shang rushed forward and was awarded the head of Liaodong, all because of the domain.Since it is clear that he is a thief, why is it that he sacrifices his head again?If you have been ordered to taste, and righteousness is in it, you should not set up a scheme for others to make it so.Since then, Liang has behaved like this, because he has no right to advance or retreat. He is crying with Wang Xiu and Yuan Tan. They have the same appearance but different hearts.

Zhong Yao: Although it is against the righteousness, it is beneficial to give way, and it should be discussed by the sons of the world.

Appearance: The voice is tall and smooth, the eyebrows are clear and bright, and the beard is four feet long.

Official Position: Lieutenant

Family members: Younger brother: Cui Lin
Historical Chronology:

In the second year of Zhongping [AD 185], Cui Yan was 23 years old, and the township was moved to Zheng. He began to be grateful and read the Analects of Confucius and Han poetry.

In the second year of Chuping [AD 191], in the 29th year of Yan, he learned from Zheng Xuan with Gongsun Fang and others.At the end of the study, Xuzhou Yellow Turban bandits broke through Beihai, and Xuan and his disciples took refuge in Buqi Mountain.At that time, the Guzhen county was exhausted, so Xuan gave thanks to all the students.Yan was dispatched.

In the second year of Xingping [AD 195], Yan Naigui entertained himself with Qin books.

In the fifth year of Jian'an (200 AD), Yuan Shao heard about it and established it.At that time, the soldiers were violent and excavated Qiu Long. Yan remonstrated and said: "In the past, Sun Qing said: 'Scholars are not good at teaching, and armored soldiers are not good, although Tang and Wu can't win with it.' Today's roads are brutal, and the people have no virtue. The county buried its bones and sacks, to show its love, and to pursue the benevolence of King Wen." Shao thought that he was a captain of cavalry.Later Shao ruled Liyang, which was second to Yanjin, and Yan Fu remonstrated: "The emperor is here, and the people hope to help him, so it is better to guard the border and report to the Ning District Yu." Shao refused to listen, and was defeated in Guandu.

In the seventh year of Jian'an [AD 202], Shao died, and the two sons fought against each other, and they wanted to win Yan.Yan said that he was ill and resigned, so he was convicted and secluded in prison. Lai Yinkui and Chen Lin rescued him.

In the tenth year of Jian'an [AD 205], Taizu broke the Yuan family, led the Jizhou herdsmen, and appointed Yan to work for Biejia. He said: "Yesterday's household registration can get 30 people, so it is a big state." Yan said to him. : "Today the world is falling apart, Kyushu is divided, the two Yuan brothers are looking for wars, and the Hebei side is steaming and raging in the wilderness. I haven't heard of Wang Shiren's voice first, and I will ask about the customs and save him from misery, but the school plans the armored soldiers. This is the only way to go first." This is what the gentlemen and women of Bizhou expect from Duke Ming!" The Taizu thanked him instead.

In the 11th year of Jian'an [AD 206], Taizu conquered Bingzhou, and Emperor Fu Wen stayed in Ye.The son still went out to hunt in the field, changed his clothes, and aimed to expel him.Yan Shu remonstrated and said: "Gai Wenpan is in Youtian, the book is a warning, Lu Yin watches the fish, and the Spring and Autumn Period ridiculed it. The aphorisms of Zhou and Confucius are the clear meaning of the two classics. After Yin Jian Xia, the poem is not far away, Zi Propriety is taboo, and the gains and losses of those who are close must be deeply observed. The Yuan family is rich and powerful, the prince is generous, traveling around is extravagant, righteousness is not heard, a philosopher is a gentleman, Russia has the ambition of Sess, and Xiong Yu A strong man falls for the purpose of devouring, so he has millions of disciples, across the river, there is no room for him. Now the country is exhausted, health and well-being are not yet in harmony, scholars and women are heaping, thinking about virtue. Mr. Kuang Royal soldiers and horses work hard up and down. The son of the world should follow the road, be cautious in doing things right, think about the high level of the country, learn from the inside and take precautions, and show the far-reaching integrity from the outside. , Sudden galloping and treacherous mausoleum, aspiring to the small entertainment of pheasants and rabbits, forgetting the importance of the country, Sicheng has knowledge and compassion. Only the son of the world burns and donates pleats, so as to satisfy the expectations of the public, so that the old ministers will not be blamed by heaven."

In the 13th year of Jian'an [AD 208], Taizu was the prime minister, and Yan Fu was the governor of Dongxi Caoyu.

In the 15th year of Jian'an [211 AD], he worshiped Shangshu.At that time, the prince was not established, but Hou Zhi of Lin Sui was talented and loved him.Taizu was suspicious and ordered a secret visit outside.Weiyan Luban replied: "Gai heard about the righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period. Establishing a son to grow up, plus five senses, generals are benevolent, filial, intelligent, and should inherit the orthodoxy. Yan will guard it to the death." Zhi, Yan's brother and son-in-law.Taizu honored his father, sighed, and moved to lieutenant.

In the 21st year of Jian'an [AD 216], Taizu was the king of Wei, and he published praises for meritorious deeds and described Shengde.People at that time laughed and taught the world to be superficial and hypocritical, saying that Yan was a loser.Yan took the example from the training and looked at it, and said in the training book: "Examination of the form is a good thing! The time is about the time, and there will be changes." Yan's original intention is to criticize the critics and not to seek reason.There was a person who slandered Bai Yan's book arrogantly, and the Taizu said angrily: "The proverb 'gives a girl's ears', and 'ears' is not a good saying. 'There will be changes', which means not inferior." So he punished Yan as a disciple , making people see it, and his words are indomitable.The Taizu order said: "Although Yan sees the punishment, he understands the guests. He is like a person in the market. He looks directly at the guests and must be angry." So Yan died.

Historical evaluation:

Cao Cao: You have the style of Boyi, the straightness of Shi Yu, the greedy husband is clear when he is famous, and the strong man is famous and fierce. He can lead the time.

Chen Shou: ① Taizu was taboo by nature, and those who were unbearable were punished by clinging to the old and being ungodly.But Yan is the most deplored by the world, and has been wronged up to now. ② Cui Yangaoge is the best.
It is very majestic, and the court scholars look forward to it, and the Taizu also respects it. ③ Cui Yan knows the truth.

"The Stories of the Sages": Yan Qing is loyal and bright, elegant and knowledgeable, pushes the square and straight the way, and is righteous in the dynasty.In the early days of the Wei family, Quan Heng was appointed as a commissioner, and he was always discussed by Qi Qing for more than ten years.There are many talents in civil and military affairs.The imperial court is high, and the world is peaceful.

Xu You

Word: Ziyuan
Birthplace: Nanyang, Jingzhou (now Nanyang, Henan)

Historical Chronology:

Xu You was friendly with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao when he was young.

Around 184, Wang Fen, the governor of Jizhou, Xu You and others conspired to abolish Emperor Ling of Han and establish Marquis of Hefei, but ended in failure.

In 189, Yuan Shao escaped from Dong Zhuochu and fled to Jizhou. Xu You followed him and became Yuan Shao's counselor, urging Yuan Shao to form an alliance with Cao Cao.

In 196, when Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty returned to the east, Xu You advised Yuan Shao to welcome Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, but Yuan Shao refused to listen, and Xu You was deeply dissatisfied.

In 200, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao began to fight. Xu You persuaded Yuan Shao to delay attacking Cao Cao. Yuan Shao thought he was strong and refused to listen to the advice. Xu You was deeply disappointed.Xu You was greedy for money, and his family broke the law and was sent to prison. Xu You then defected to Cao Cao and suggested that Cao Cao send troops to Wuchao, and the result was a complete victory.After Yuan Shao sent Zhang Yun and Gao Lan to surrender, Cao Hong expressed his distrust, and Xu You came forward to guarantee him.

After the Battle of Guandu, Xu You followed Cao Cao to pacify Jizhou.Once, Xu You went out of the east gate of Yecheng and said to the left and right: "This family cannot enter this gate without me." Someone reported to Cao Cao, so Xu You was taken into custody and eventually killed.

Historical evaluation:

Word: Zibo
Achievement: Breaking the horse and surpassing the army

Biography:

He is old with Taizu.Chupingzhong gathered in the northern boundary of Jingzhou, and later became Taizu.Taizu thought that the general would not use Dianbing, but would often discuss at the table.Zibo had little ambition, so he sighed and said: "A man who lives in the world will be tens of thousands of soldiers and thousands of horses riding behind his ears!" The peers laughed.Later, he sat in Tibet for his life and was tied to death. He had to escape from the prison.When the righteous soldiers from all over the world rise up, Zi Bo also joins the crowd to rely on Liu Biao.Later, it was returned to Duke Cao, and it was used by him, and the military and state plans were often discussed.Liu Biao died, and Cao Gong went to Jingzhou.Biao Zicong surrendered, and greeted Cao Gong with integrity. All the generals were suspicious of fraud, and Cao Gong asked Zibo.Zibo said: "The world is in turmoil, and everyone is greedy for the king's order to respect himself. Now, if you come to festivals, you must be sincere." Cao Gong said: "Great kindness." Then he marched into the army.Doting on Zibo, the family is rich in gold.From Po Ma Chao and so on, Zibo has made more achievements.And Hebei Pingding, followed by Jizhou.Later, the Taizu traveled with the princes, and Zibo also followed.Zibo Gu said to the left and right: "Father and son in this family are happy today." There are white people, and the Taizu thought they had slanderous intentions, so he took them in and cured them.

Historical evaluation:

Cao Cao: ① Zibo's plan is too late. ② Lou Zibo is happy to be lonely, but he is not as powerful as a lonely ear!
Fish cage: The ancients said: "Whoever gets a bird has one eye, but if you open one eye, you will never get a bird. Birds can fly far, and those who fly far have the power of six wires, but without the help of many hairs, Then the flight will not be far away." Inferred from this, although the works of the Great Wei, although there are heroes, it may not be due to the attachment of his descendants.

Historical Chronology:

Xiahoudun is a descendant of Xiahouying, a famous minister in the Western Han Dynasty. When he was 14 years old, he studied with his teacher. Someone insulted his teacher, and Xiahoudun killed that person. Therefore, he is famous for his strong character and courage.

[190], Cao Cao raised troops in Chenliu, and Xiahou Dun served as a deputy general and followed the expedition.Later, Cao Cao served as General Fenwu, made Xiahou Dun Sima, and led troops to live in Baima.

[193], Cao Cao attacked Tao Qian, leaving Xiahou Dun to defend Puyang.Zhang Miao rebelled to welcome Lv Bu. Cao Cao's home was in Juancheng. Dun led his troops to go lightly, and met Lv Bu on the way, and after a battle.Lu Bu returned, but then entered Puyang and attacked Xiahou Dun's army's supply unit.Lu Bu sent his generals to feign surrender and successfully kidnapped Xiahou Dun.Xiahou Dun's general, Han Hao, claimed that according to the national law, the safety of the hostages would not be considered, and made a gesture of recruiting troops to attack the hostage-takers.The hostage-takers were afraid, so they abandoned the hostages and surrendered.After Cao Cao heard about this incident, he made it a decree that attacking hostage-takers should not be concerned about hostages, so there will be no more hostage-taking incidents in the future.Cao Cao returned from Xuzhou, Xiahou Dun followed Cao Cao to conquer Lu Bu, and was shot in the left eye by Liu Ya.Later, Xiahou Dun served concurrently as prefect of Chenliu and Jiyin, general Jiajianwu, and granted the title of Marquis of Gao'an Township.At that time, there was a severe drought and locusts were everywhere, so Xiahou Dun cut off the Taishou River to build a pier, moved the soil by himself, and encouraged the soldiers to farm, and the people benefited from it.

[196], Cao Cao took Han Xiandi to Xuchang, and Xiahou Dun was transferred to Henan Yin.

[200], Cao Cao began to fight Yuan Shao, and Xiahou Dun led his troops to defend Aocang, covering the left side of the army.

[204], Cao Cao broke through Yecheng, and Xiahou Dun was promoted to General Fubo, still concurrently serving as Henan Yin, and was granted the right to deal with affairs according to circumstances without being restricted by regulations.

[207], Cao Cao ordered to count Xiahou Dun's achievements before and after, adding 1800 households in Shiyi, plus the previous total of 2500 households.

In [216], Xiahou Dun followed Cao Cao to conquer Sun Quan. After returning, he was appointed to lead 26 armies and stayed in Juchao. He was also given famous musicians and singing and dancing artists as rewards.

In [219], Cao Cao's troops were stationed in Mopi, and they often invited Xiahoudun to go out by car, which seemed very close, and allowed him to freely enter and leave his bedroom, which other generals could not get.Later, Xiahou Dun was promoted to former general, led the army back to Shouchun, and moved to Zhaoling.

[220], Cao Pi ascended the throne, Xiahou Dun was promoted to general, and died a few months later.

Historical evaluation:

Chen Shou: ①Although Dun was in the army, he personally welcomed his teacher to accept his job.The nature is clean and frugal, if there is surplus money, it will be distributed, if there is not enough money, it will be given to officials, and the property will not be managed. ②Xiahou's love for the old is more valuable than the time, and he controls the meritorious deeds, which is salty and effective.

Cao Pi: Dun, Wei Zhiyuan's meritorious service, honored books and bamboos.In the past, the court insisted on not offering sacrifices, but still mourning them. Besides, I received Zen in Wei Dynasty, so I can forget his heroes!It is advisable to choose Dun to belong to Shaofeng. "
