Cao Cao and Liu Bei boiled wine to discuss heroes. Let Liu Bei tell us something about heroes in the world. When Liu Bei listed a lot of names, Cao Cao told Liu Bei that the heroes in the world can only be princes, not covering their ears. There is nothing wrong with Cao Cao. Just look at the background development of the reflection, and the problem comes. We really need to compare Cao Cao and Liu Bei to see who is the real hero. Who deserves more praise?
Cao Cao is a controversial historical figure, and I hate the word "controversy". This is a politically motivated trick played by some so-called historians. Cao Cao in operas is always white-faced, treacherous and not a good person.
Later, someone reversed his conviction, affirmed Cao Cao's historical position, compared Cao Cao with Liu Bei, and kept comparing Liu Bei. The reasons are clear: first, Cao Cao has made outstanding achievements; Secondly, and most importantly, Cao Cao is the first of the seven sons of Jian 'an, a writer and a poet. Cao Cao left us some top-grade ancient poems for us to recite.
What about Liu Bei? There is no fart poem. In XXX's words, Sun Quan and Liu Bei joined hands to show their intentions to each other, and Cao Cao fled to the north with a fire. And "the moon stars are rare, and the black magpies fly south", but I can't say a word. This secular and snobbish way of comparison has blinded many kind hearts and simple eyes.
Of course, if your father leaves you a few works, antiques, even yellow and white things, real estate villas, it will obviously be much more affordable than the family precepts such as "Don't be good and small, don't be evil and small". The war of that year was far away from us, far from being as close as "drinking poison to quench thirst". When those literati shouted "the moon"
Now let's put aside those smelly poems and compare Cao Cao and Liu Bei carefully.
According to the Records of the Three Kingdoms of Life, Emperor Wu recorded that Cao Cao's father was killed in Xuzhou, and he thought it was Tao Gan. Just when Bush decided that 9 1 1 was pulled away by a lamp, he sent troops to Xuzhou. "Too many people have been killed." On this basis, Luo Guanzhong wrote in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Chickens and dogs don't stay, and Chen Shou wrote the history of the Three Kingdoms with great care. Here, he still can't help but write a little too much. It can be seen that Cao Cao slaughtered many innocent people in Xuzhou at that time. I'm afraid there are at least a few thousand people. You know, at that time, the total population of the country was only 10 million.
More than a thousand years have passed, and those thousand bones have long since disappeared, but the poems written by Cao Cao have been handed down. Who else will study ordinary people who have died unjustly? What a boring thing it is, but we often read that "the old horse is willing to go to Wan Li Road". If you can still read "Autumn Wind Bleak, Rough Waves", there will definitely be young literary women watching with envy.
Not long ago, a newspaper reported that the name of the former Italian Prime Minister was sentenced to life imprisonment for a murder case more than ten years ago. Our Comrade Cao Aman killed thousands of innocent people, but he was spared from historical criticism because of his political achievements and literary achievements. This view is precisely because modern people must be modern people. Just read modern history.
Liu Bei is indeed inferior to Cao Cao in strategy and literature. Chen Shou wrote in "Biography of the Predecessors", "My ancestors were generous, knowledgeable and responsible, with ancestral demeanor and lofty sentiments." And the whole country entrusted to Zhuge Liang, but no mind, this is for the public, but also ancient and modern prosperity. The right to do so is not to catch up with Wei Wu, but the space of the base is also very narrow. However, if you don't bow your head, you are not next. If you slap the other person, you will not tolerate yourself, not only for the benefit, but also to avoid harm.
I think Chen Shou's comments on Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Sun Quan are the most appropriate. Cao Cao didn't kill Liu Bei in his early years, and Guan Yu also had many ideas, which can't be simply understood as knowing heroes and cherishing heroes. Didn't Zhou Yu also persuade Sun Quan to get rid of Liu? People like Liu Bei, in fact, Cao Cao and Sun Quan can't tolerate him. It's just that the time hasn't come yet, and it's not easy to do it, because Liu Bei also ran away later.
Cao Cao, Sun Quan and Liu Bei are all harmonious but different. Liu Bei is the most pitiful, with no funds and no base. He was chased in Liu Yuzhou, an empty title. He often runs too late and even his wife is abandoned. However, Liu Bei has one advantage. Wherever he went, the first thing he did was to win the hearts of the people.
In the attitude towards the people, the common people, the literati and the ranks, it should be said that Liu Bei has the most human rights thoughts among the three people, which is commendable. Only by this article, I put Liu Bei above Cao Cao, and Luo Guanzhong didn't have to regard Shu Han and Shu Guo as orthodox, but obviously his kindness to Liu Bei was admirable.
The classic thought of Confucianism is benevolence, which is well explained in Liu Bei's works. Although Liu Bei's talent is not outstanding, it is his benevolent demeanor that attracts groups of talents around him and makes breakthroughs for himself. And charity deserves our admiration at any time.
