Let's list some military commanders who were particularly alive during the Three Kingdoms period and see what's special about them.
I. Liao Hua
Liaohua can be said to be a living fossil of the three-point era at the end of Han Dynasty, which almost witnessed the whole process from the three-point to the end of Han Dynasty.
Liao Hua participated in the Yellow Scarf Uprising. As we all know, the Yellow Scarf Uprising broke out in A.D. 184. Even if Liao Hua was only 15 years old at that time, his birth date must have been earlier than 170.
Guan Yu rode a thousand miles alone and met Liao Hua, 30 miles away, in the suburb of Xudu. This Liao Hua has a lot of courage. He even took the mountain as the king and plundered everywhere near Cao Cao's territory, Xudu. Is Guan Yu worried? The yellow turban insurrectionary? Don't want to take him in, Liao Hua disgruntled. When Liu Bei led the troops into Sichuan, Liao Hua appeared again.
Guan Yu went north to Xiangfan, and Liao Hua was the pioneer. He went out with the army and took part in the battles to capture Xiangyang, drive the Seventh Army and fight against Huang Xu in Sizhu. Until Guan Yu lost Jingzhou, his father went to Maicheng and died. But Liao Hua escaped because he volunteered to break through and went to the army for help.
Zhuge Liang made several northern expeditions to the Central Plains, and Liao Hua went to war with the army. When Zhuge Liang came out of Qishan (AD 230), 59-year-old Liao Hua served as a pioneer general and attacked Qin Liang, the leader of Wei Jun.
In 234 AD, Zhuge Liang went out to Qishan six times. Liao Hua was 63 years old at that time. In the battle, he almost killed Sima Yi, the coach of Wei Jun, and seized a handsome helmet, which was recorded as the first meritorious service.
After Zhuge Liang died. In the 16th year of Yan Xi (AD 253), Jiang Wei led his troops to the Northern Expedition again. Liao Hua, who was 82 years old at that time, was the pioneer and was defeated by Xu Zhi, the arch-rival.
In the first year of Jing Yao (AD 258), 87-year-old veteran Liao Hua led the Northern Expedition. Liao Hua is still a pioneer, bravely killing Zheng Lun, a pioneer general in Wei Jun.
In 260 AD, Wei Di Cao Mao was killed by Si Mazhao, and Jiang Wei went north again. Liao Hua, 89, continues to be a pioneer.
In the sixth year of Jing Yao, in 263 AD, Zhong Hui, Wargo and Wei Guan led an army to attack Shu. 92-year-old Liao Huaqiang supported his old body and led his troops to Jiange to support General Jiang Wei.
In 264 AD, the surrendered Liu Chan was escorted to Luoyang by Wei Jun, when Liao Hua was at least 93 years old. He didn't accompany him and died soon.
Second, Ding Feng.
Liao Hua is the best survivor of Shu Han and Ding Feng is the best survivor of Dongwu. This is also a wonderful work.
In 200 AD, Sun Ce was assassinated, and Sun Quan inherited the Soochow Foundation. Sun Quan set up a hall to recruit talents from all over the world, during which Ding Feng and Lv Meng were recruited.
How old was Ding Feng when he invested in Sun Quan's account? Let's analyze it. At that time, who was he? Jiang Yong? The identity and age of the recruits cannot be young. If Ding Feng is a boy of 15 or 16 years old, and he is as brave as Ma Chao and Sun Ce, then his martial arts will certainly improve with the increase of age and combat experience, and he will inevitably become at least as brave as Taishi Ci and Gan Ning in the future. But in fact, Ding Feng's martial arts has not made much progress, so his strength value should have been formed long ago, at least 20 years old. In this way, by the time he arrived in Battle of Red Cliffs (AD 208), Ding Feng would have been 28 years old.
In 252 AD, in the winter of Sun Quan's death, Cao Wei invaded and Ding Feng led the troops to war. Fighting in the snow? , slay Cao Jiang Han Zong and Jia Huan, Ding Feng was 72 years old at this time.
In the second year of Taiping, in 257 AD, Ding Feng decided to slay Sun Chen, the powerful minister, at the age of 77.
In 27 1 year, Ding Feng, an elder of the four dynasties, died. He struggled for 7 1 year and played for Dongwu, at least he should live to be 90 years old.
Third, Zhong You
As a pampered civil servant, longevity is understandable, but a military commander's longevity is even more severe. In Cao Wei, there was a man with both civil and military skills who lived for a long time. He is Zhong You.
Friends who like calligraphy know that Zhong You is the pioneer of regular script in China and a great calligrapher. Wang Xizhi was greatly influenced by Zhong You.
In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhong You was ordered to guard Tongguan. Ma Chao's Western Expedition led the troops to besiege Tongguan, and Zhong You went out of the city to fight. Ma Chao's cousins Ma Dai and Zhong You are fighting in front. What about Ma Dai? A bite? Zhong You was defeated in one round and returned to the city. Although Zhong You is a martial artist, he is also a military commander.
Zhong You had a famous son, Zhong Hui, who was the commander-in-chief of Wei Jun who later attacked Shu. Zhong Hui gave birth to Zhong Hui at the age of seventy-four, which is really awesome. The old man's kung fu is really admirable to us young people.
According to research, Zhong You was born in 15 1. In AD 2 1 1 year, Ma Chao rebelled against the West, and it was normal for Zhong You to lose to youthful Ma Dai at the age of 60.
In 230 AD, Zhong You died in vain at the age of 80, when his son Zhong Hui was only 4 years old.
Fourth, Huang Zhong
Huang zhong is also a veteran. He was already there when he appeared? Nearly sixty? , but also pull open the bow of the force of two stones, is there? Improper courage? At the gates of Changsha, Guan Yu praised Guan Yu for his battle with several lilies.
In 2 19, Huang Zhong killed Xia, the head coach of Wei Jun, in the battle of Dingjun Mountain, which laid an immortal record for its establishment.
Liu Bei recruited Wu, and Huang invited him to go out with the army. Later, in the battle of Xiaoting, I was stabbed in the back by the enemy. Before I died, I said: I am seventy-five years old this year, and my life is enough. ? Then he died. This shows that Huang Zhong's life expectancy is 75 years.
Five, Zhao Yun
As we all know, during the Three Kingdoms period, Zhao Yun was a super soldier. Not only is his martial arts strong and invincible, but he is also very capable of living. It can be said that among the people who can fight the most, Zhao Yun lived the longest; Of the people who can live best, Zhao Yun can fight best. Zhao Yun appeared in the battle of Panhe between Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao. He didn't say how old he was, only that he was a? Young general? .
Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, Zhao Yun volunteered to join the army at the age of eighty, and led his team out of the valley to attract Wei Jun's main force. In the Battle of Mount Tai, Zhao Yun stepped forward and destroyed the Han family. Deng Zhi praised him and congratulated him. The general is 70 years old and the hero is like yesterday. . So, Zhao Yun should be seventy years old at this time.
Zhuge Liang lost his street pavilion and Zhao Yun was on the defensive. After returning to Chengdu, he was also demoted by the Prime Minister.
; In the sixth year of Jian Xing in Shu Han Dynasty, that is, in 229 AD, Zhao Yunshan, a famous generation, died and announced? Five tigers era? After the curtain fell, the overall combat effectiveness of military commanders fell to a higher level in the post-Three Kingdoms era. Zhao Yun is 72 years old.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, in the troubled times, it was difficult for a military commander to find a way out in the rain of swords and arrows, let alone live a long life. How many heroes died in battle, ended their military career, and lived to be 70 years old and still fought, which is really not simple.
Through the analysis of the above veterans, we find that the one who can live best is not the one who can fight best. If you want to live for a long time, you need to know the battlefield clearly and be good at preserving yourself. Luck is also indispensable.
