"Trap, there is death without life, a little Hanshan arrives first, and then the gun is like a dragon. Even if the enemy is outnumbered, the last general can take the head of the enemy general among the armies! "
Translation: if you decide to take the lead, you must hold the belief that you will die; First I saw a little cold light, and then a pike came like a dragon; Even if the enemy outnumbers us, I can still win the head of the enemy generals in the army. In other words, as a soldier, you should have the spirit of fighting death on the battlefield.
Evaluation of works
summary
The History of the Three Kingdoms is mainly good at narration, concise writing and proper tailoring, which was well received at that time. Xiahou Zhan, who wrote Shu Wei at the same time as Chen Shou, praised the History of the Three Kingdoms, believing that there was no need to write a new history, which actually ruined his original work.
Later generations are even more admired, thinking that among the historical books recording the history of the Three Kingdoms, the History of the Three Kingdoms written by Chen Shou alone can be comparable to Historical Records and Hanshu. Therefore, the chronicles of the Three Kingdoms of other schools have been lost in obscurity, and only the chronicles of the Three Kingdoms have been passed down to this day.
