""One Tiger and One Kirin" is about Sun Jian and Jiang Wei. Although Sun Jian is known as the descendant of Sun Wu, the master of the art of war, by the time it was passed down to his generation, his family situation had become ordinary and he had to travel all over the country with his father. Once Encountering a large group of pirates, everyone was very frightened. 17-year-old Sun Jian went forward alone and killed the pirate leader with a single blow, repelling the entire group of pirates. Later, he led an army to revolt, making Dong Zhuo do the same. He was so fearful that he was called the "Jiangdong Tiger"."
"Jiang Wei, known as "Youlin", inherited Zhuge Liang's legacy and made many northern expeditions to the Central Plains. Before Cao Wei invaded the Shu Han, he wrote a warning to Liu Chan in advance and suggested strengthening armaments on key roads. However, Liu Chan ignored it and only focused on seeking Having fun and having fun eventually led to the demise of the Shu Han. After Liu Chan was captured, Jiang Wei still did not lose heart. He accumulated strength and incited the leaders of Cao Wei to rebel, hoping to revive the Shu Han, but was eventually killed in the rebellion."
"There are countless such celebrities in the Three Kingdoms. Lu Bu, the "Red Rabbit among Horses", Zhao Yun, the "Victorious General", Guan Yu, the "Martial Saint" and other famous people throughout the ages, as well as Diao Chan, known as the "most beautiful woman", are also passed down to future generations."
Li Shimin: During the Three Kingdoms period, there were indeed many talented people, but it was a pity that all the empires built by Cao Cao were made into wedding dresses for others.
Zhu Yuanzhang: That one can’t do it either! If you seize the country, you will still be defeated by your descendants.
Cao Cao really couldn't sit still at this time. Miss Zhang said that when he massacred the city, he was a little remorseful and killed everyone. He had to be more careful in handling things in the future. He had no regrets. He wanted to be king. He has to be ruthless enough, but what does he mean by making a wedding dress for someone else? Could it be that if Liu Bei were to swallow him up, he would be able to compete with Wei State, but Wu State was still far behind.
"What was said on the barrage is indeed true. I can only say that this person "knows how to pretend" and does it well!"
"The Three Kingdoms were established not with Cao Cao, but after Cao Pi became emperor. Although his achievements were not as high as those of Cao Cao, his achievements were still very good. Like our Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty, no matter how great his achievements were in his early years, he could not stop him. His mediocrity in his later years.”
"But let's return to the topic. This time we are talking about Cao Cao, not Liu Che. Let's continue talking about what Cao Pi did after Cao Cao died."
Liu Che:......
The topic was brought up, and my heart was in my throat, but I stopped talking.
"Before Cao Pi became emperor, although Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan had been fighting against each other, the main struggle had always come from Cao Cao and Liu Bei. In contrast, Soochow has always been either a bystander or a leader. Because of their own interests, they temporarily formed a short-term alliance with either Cao Cao or Liu Bei to deal with the other force together. There was almost never an example of a war against a certain force alone."
"But after Cao Pi became emperor, all this changed drastically, and the situation in the entire Three Kingdoms suddenly changed. The war between the three kingdoms gradually began to tilt towards Soochow. Cao Wei did not focus on the Shu Han, but launched an attack on Soochow. Another onslaught.”
"In the first month of the first year of Yankang, Cao Cao died in Luoyang. Cao Pi moved from Yecheng to Luoyang to succeed the prime minister and the king of Wei. The 25th year of An'an was renamed the first year of Yankang. In October of the first year of Yankang, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty formally abdicated the throne. After Cao Pi submitted letters of resignation three times, he ascended the Zen platform and proclaimed himself emperor, changing the Yuan Dynasty to Huangchu. From this, Cao Pi officially ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, prompting Cao Wei to replace the Eastern Han Dynasty. After ascending the throne, Cao Pi naturally hopes to realize Cao Cao's long-cherished wish to unify the world."
"So, after Cao Pi became emperor, why did he give up the confrontation with his old enemy Shu Han and instead put more energy into Soochow, which has always been more unknown than other countries?"
"Because of Guan Yu's carelessness, he lost Jingzhou. After the Battle of Jingzhou and the Battle of Yiling, Soochow's power is on the rise. On the contrary, Shu Han is the weakest. If this momentum cannot be curbed, Soochow will The threat to Cao Wei is obviously relatively large."
"If Soochow wants to attack Soochow, they can either start from Jingzhou or send troops from the Jianghuai area. However, if the Shu Han wants to invade the hinterland of Cao Wei, they need to first pass through Yongliang, then attack Guanzhong, and finally go straight to Luoyang , considering the strength of Shu Han, this is almost an impossible goal."
"Moreover, the Shu Han is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Cao Cao also tried to fight with the Shu Han during his lifetime and sent Xia Houyuan to guard Hanzhong. However, Huang Zhong attacked him in a surprise attack and even his capable general Xia Houyuan was killed."
"Although Cao Pi also understands that the Shu Han is very weak, the terrain in Hanzhong is complex, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and is not suitable for large-scale attacks. Even if the Shu Han is defeated in the end, it will definitely cost a lot."
"This was a thankless option for Cao Pi, who had just ascended the throne and the situation was not stable. What's more, the Shu Han was severely defeated by Sun Quan at this time, and it was impossible to threaten him for the time being, so Cao Pi gave up attacking the Shu Han. "
"Especially after Guan Yu carelessly lost the battles of Jingzhou and Yiling, the Shu Han Dynasty was already like a clay Buddha crossing the river and could not protect itself. How could it have any ability to threaten Cao Wei. Therefore, from Cao Pi's point of view, the Shu Han Dynasty will not be able to protect itself in the short term. It threatens Cao Wei, but if Soochow is not weakened, it is likely to continue to strengthen. This is a real and urgent threat."
"I only attacked Wu three times, but the opponent easily resolved them all."
"It's a pity that after the Battle of Yiling, Cao Pi's army had the upper hand and had broken through the core city of Wu State. At this critical moment, Cao Pi actually fell seriously ill. Coupled with Soochow's defense Extremely stubborn. So Cao Pi could only shake hands with Soochow and make peace, stop fighting, and the war ended in a draw."
"The second time was when Liu Bei died and Liu Chan ascended the throne. For the sake of friendship between the two countries, Zhuge Liang personally went to the State of Wu to seek peace. The two countries shook hands and made peace and attacked the State of Wei together. This made Cao Pi very angry and sent troops to attack. Unfortunately, after arriving at Jinling, There was a violent storm and there were many kinds of suspicious walls on the road. We were afraid of an ambush on the other side, so we had to retreat."
"The third Battle of Shiting was a battle between the two countries over the Jianghuai region. In this battle, Cao Jun was fooled by Wu's scheme. Naturally, Cao Jun did not benefit from the scheme. Cao Xiu Deeply trapped in a tight siege, we had to rely on reinforcements from behind to retreat with a group of remnants, and this battle was lost again."
"Cao Pi really wanted to complete the great cause of unification that Cao Cao had not completed. He personally conquered Soochow three times, but was easily resolved by Sun Quan. Cao Pi was too far away from Sun Quan. He really fulfilled Cao Cao's words - having children should be like Sun Zhongmou!"
