In fact, Zhang Fei is not only brave and good at fighting, but also resourceful. In the battle of Dangyang Changbanpo, he relied not only on courage, but also on the sound of shouting. At that time, he only had more than 20 riders. In order to create a suspicious soldier's plan, he ordered his soldiers to tie branches to ponytails and run back and forth in the Woods. For a time, "after Qiaodong Woods, the dust began to fly." Later, when Cao Jun arrived, he was afraid to go near. On the way to attack Shu, Zhang Fei was a pioneer. He spread false news and deceived Yan Yan with body double. After catching Yan Yan, he became more righteous. In this way, Yan Yan surrendered to Liu Bei, paving the way for pacifying surprisingly. In the Wakouguan War, he used other people's knowledge about his drinking, pretended to be drunk, and skillfully used a series of tricks to defeat Zhang Tai, who was famous for his wisdom and courage. Even Zhuge Liang praised him: "General Zhang Can is resourceful."
Zhang Fei was born as a butcher, so is he really a lout and illiterate?
Zhang Fei's calligraphy is more impressive than Zhong You, the originator of regular script.
According to research, Zhang Fei is not only a calligrapher, but also a painter who is good at drawing beautiful women. According to Tao Hongjing's Sword Records of the Southern and Northern Dynasties, "Zhang Fei bowed to the new Tinghou and wrote an inscription with a knife:' The new Pinghou will be the commander of Shu. "
In the Ming Dynasty, Zhuo Erchang recorded that Zhang Fei liked to paint beauties in "The Interpretation of Painting"? Good cursive script. It is said that the picture of the goddess mending the sky on the north wall of Zhuozhou Drum Tower was written by Zhang Fei.
The Ming Dynasty's "Dan Yin Zong Lu": "There are Zhang Fei and Diao Douming in Fuling. His writing style is very hard, and he flies into a book to argue, but these physical evidences have been loved by people and cannot be verified. "However, there is a rubbings of Guangxu period in Qing Dynasty, which is Zhang Fei's Writing about Western Beauty at once. In Ming Dynasty, Zhuo Erchang compiled On Painting New Dollars, saying that Zhang Fei:" likes to paint beauties and writes cursive script ",and in Qing Dynasty," Zhang Fei was a native of Zhuozhou and was good at painting beauties ".
Zhang Fei's daughter is a queen! Liu Chan's wife! As the saying goes, "If the daughter is the father, if the child is the mother", if Zhang Fei is really dark-skinned and bearded. If his daughter conforms to the characteristics of genetics and partly inherits the characteristics of Zhang Fei, then her appearance should never be the appearance of a good family!
Ji Xiaolan once commented in the Qing Dynasty that he was generous enough to win every battle, and the writing style of Huan Hou was inevitably sparse, but he didn't know that the couch was a cliff and the general rode a book.

In 2004, the cultural relics department found a stone head on Zhang Feiying Mountain in Jianyang, Sichuan, which made some experts and scholars have a new view on the appearance of Zhang Fei, a famous star of the Three Kingdoms. This stone statue is about four meters high and more than three meters wide. According to local legend, it was specially carved by craftsmen in the Tang Dynasty to commemorate Zhang Fei, the "Five Tiger Generals", in the place where Zhang Fei was a village. It is said that this "Zhang Fei" has a kind heart, long ears, thick lips and no beard on his face, which is quite different from the image of Zhang Fei in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The Sichuan Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology specially measured and identified the head portrait and found that the stone statue was indeed built in the Tang Dynasty. Whether it is Zhang Fei or not, although archaeologists have not given an answer, the discovery of this stone statue has forced people to re-examine Zhang Fei's true face.
Romance really can't be viewed from a historical perspective. Peach Blossom Jieyi, White Face Liu Bei, Red Face Guan Yu and Black Face Zhang Fei are all out of the need of artistic shaping, but only Zhang Fei has suffered. He has changed from a handsome man to a savage.
