"The Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves are all true heroes." This famous poem comes from the preface of Romance of the Three Kingdoms. A poem with lofty sentiments and lofty aspirations kicked off the "Battle of the Yellow Scarf", and also showed the fearless spirit of Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, as well as their heroic integrity of "vowing in Taoyuan".
I admire Guan Yu's benevolence and righteousness. Not Cao Cao, but Cao Cao rode thousands of miles alone with a candle. The ancient city beheaded Cai Yang, and later he released Cao Cao in Huarong Road. Guan Yu, who has a single phoenix eye and a heavy jujube face, holds a dragon crescent moon blade and rides a red rabbit horse, has read the Spring and Autumn Annals, and can chop Hua Xiong with warm wine, scrape bones and heal wounds without fear of pain, chop Yan Liang and punish Wen Chou. He never lost his true colors as a hero. Guan Yu interprets the eternal spirit and noble soul. Loyalty, the hero has a clear conscience!
I also appreciate Zhuge Liang's wisdom. He is not only familiar with astronomy and geography, but also knowledgeable, resourceful and cautious all his life. He was also a loyal minister, a loyal minister who devoted himself to the feudal rule and died. I thought Zhuge Liang should be an extraordinary person, but the book only described him as eight feet long, with a face like a crown jade, a black scarf and a crane.
Presumably, Cao Cao is the person who impressed me the most about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Although Liu Bei was written as a traitor in order to highlight his benevolence and righteousness, his military talent has not been obliterated. He occupied a large area of land in several years' crusades to the east and the west, and even ethnic minorities surrendered to him. His most talented monarch, Wei, is also the most powerful of the Three Kingdoms. Cao Cao's thirst for talents is also worthy of appreciation. In order to select more talents, Cao Cao broke the standard of appointing officials according to feudal ideas, put forward the employment policy of "appointing people on their merits" and promulgated the "order of seeking talents" Cao Cao's success lies not only in his outstanding talent, but also in his generosity. After the fiasco in Chibi, Cao Cao was not at a loss, but smiled and said, "Today, the north is still under my control" and smiled three times to show his optimism about the setbacks. At the same time, Cao Cao is also a man with great literary interest. He likes to write poems, and even if war is imminent, his interest will not change. Many of his poems are famous works in Yuefu.
Although these are all fictional characters of Luo Guanzhong, there is no way to verify them, but doesn't this reflect Luo Guanzhong's writing ability? The book Romance of the Three Kingdoms has touched me deeply so far, and I hope more people can read it.
