pass by

On this day, Zhou Yu was discussing in the account, and his subordinates reported that "an old friend Jiang Gan was visiting". Zhou Yu had guessed Jiang Gan's purpose when he heard the news. He frowned and his plan came to mind. He hurried to tell people to follow the plan, and then he took the crowd out to meet him. When they met, they exchanged pleasantries. Zhou Yu took Jiang Gan's arm into the tent. He gave a banquet in honor of Jiang Gan and invited officials from civil and military departments to accompany him. During the dinner, Zhou Yu took down his sword, gave it to Taishi Ci, and put him in charge of wine. He said, "Jiang Gan and I are old classmates and friends. Although we are from Jiangbei, we are not lobbyists of Cao Cao. Don't doubt. Today's banquet is only allowed to talk about old friends. Some people mentioned two wars and improvised! " Jiang Gan listened, forward, which dare to say more! Zhou Yu also said to Jiang Gan, "I have never drunk a drop of wine since I led the army. Today, old friends met. It is because of meeting good friends on the river that the army will know each other. Be sure to drink it and get drunk! " Say and command the army to play the joy of victory, with a drink.

Halfway through the wine, Zhou Yu raised his glass and said, "Everyone here is a hero in Jiangdong. Today's meeting can be called a hero's party! Really-students must be' heroes', and Jiangdong heroes must be arrogant! " Later, in a drunken mood, he got up and danced with his sword and wrote a song: "My husband has lived a good life, made contributions, and comforted his life by saying that I would be drunk, and I would be drunk."

I was as drunk as a fiddler. After the banquet, Jiang Gan helped Zhou Yu back to the tent. Zhou Yu said, "I haven't slept with Ziyi's brother for a long time. I want to sleep with him tonight. " He fell asleep as he talked. Jiang Gan has something in his heart, remembering that he once boasted in front of Cao Cao. I don't know how to explain it when I go back Listening to the knocking outside, where can I sleep? When he saw Zhou Yu snoring like thunder, he touched the table and picked up a stack of papers to peek. When I turned it over, I suddenly saw a letter inside. A closer look reveals a letter from Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, commanders of Cao Cao's water army, to Zhou Yu. Jiang Gan was surprised and quickly hid the letter in his clothes. I want to go through other documents again, but I hear Zhou Yu's dream: "Ziyi, I'll show you Cao Cao's head in a few days!" " "Jiang Gan mouth vaguely promised, hurriedly blew out the lamp and hurried to sleep.

Early in the morning, someone entered an account to wake up Zhou Yu and said, "Someone is coming from Jiangbei ..." Zhou Yu quickly stopped him and looked at Jiang Gan. Jiang Gan just pretended to be asleep. Zhou Yu and the man walked out of the tent gently and heard the man whisper, "Cai Mao and Zhang Yun said we can't start now ..." The voice became lower and lower. Jiang Gan was in a hurry, but did not dare to touch. After a while, Zhou Yu came back to lie down and sleep. Jiang Gan is afraid to disturb Zhou Yu. When Zhou Yu fell asleep, he got up secretly and went straight out of the barracks. The garrison sergeant didn't stop him. He came to the river, found a boat, flew over the Yangtze River, and later met Cao Cao.

Zhou Yu's strategy

In fact, all this is a double spy set by Zhou Yu. He knew that only Cai He in Cao Jun was good at water warfare, so he set this plan and wanted to kill the two men by Cao Cao's hand. Cao Cao was fooled and beheaded Cai Mao and Zhang Yun. When they put the heads of Cai Mao and Zhang Yun on the table, Cao Cao realized that it was late, so he had to replace the other two naval commanders. As a result, Cao Cao's water army was defeated in Battle of Red Cliffs.

Jiang Gan is a man.

Jiang Gan, a native of Jiujiang, was Cao Cao's guest at that time. Han Jiujiang and Zhou Yu's hometown Shu County and Lujiang County (now southwest of Lujiang, Anhui Province) belong to Yangzhou, so Jiang Gan claimed to be a fellow countryman with Zhou Yu, and they had contacts. This may be one reason why Cao Cao sent him to lobby Zhou Yu. Then there is Jiang Gan, who is very eloquent. Biography of Jiang Biao said that he was handsome and unique between Jianghuai. Cao Cao's talents chose Jiang Gan to lobby Zhou Yu. Take great pains, but there is no result.

Relevant historical materials

This is the basic historical fact that Jiang Gan lobbied Zhou Yu. The question is when and where Jiang Gan met Zhou Yu. The Biography of Jiangbiao is not clearly recorded, so there are three versions.

Battle of Red Cliffs said after. Zi Jian recorded it as the winter of the fourteenth year of Jian 'an (AD 209), that is, the beginning of AD 2 10. By this time, Zhou Yu had captured Jiangling, moved to Nanjun and led Nanjun as the prefect of Soochow. So Jiang Gan lobbied Zhou Yu when he was in Jingzhou. Some books, such as ZhuGeLiangChuan (written by Liu Chunfan, published by China Youth Publishing House in July 1997), also put this matter in Zhou Yuling's southern county satrap. This book tells the story that after Battle of Red Cliffs, Cao Cao adopted the strategy of dividing and disintegrating the enemy politically, so he sent Zhou Yu's old friend Jiang Gan from Jiujiang to see Zhou Yu's rebellion, but Zhou Yu refused. As I said before, Battle of Red Cliffs. As Liu Yisheng said in the "Three Kingdoms". Mr. Liu thinks that it is unreasonable for Sima Guang to put Jiang Gan's lobbying time for Zhou Yu in the winter of the 14th year of Jian 'an. Because at this time, Zhou Yu made great contributions and became the first person in Wu Dong, which was by no means impressed by Cao Cao, and Cao Cao would not persuade Zhou Yu to surrender after the defeat of Chibi. If so, Cao Cao is really a fool. This is Mr. Liu Yisheng's opinion. Then the Romance of the Three Kingdoms said that when Battle of Red Cliffs was in China, Jiang Gan lobbied Zhou Yu. This is obviously contrary to the records in Biography of Jiang Biao, and it is just an artistic technique of the novelist. When Battle of Red Cliffs was written in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the words "Heroes will be recruited by Jiang Gan" came from the story of the Three Kingdoms in the Yuan Dynasty, not all of which were invented and created by Luo Guanzhong. Luo Guanzhong just made some changes to Pinghua to make the story vivid and reasonable. Jiang Gan in Pinghua is an immortal. Cao Cao worshipped him as a teacher and sent him to lobby Zhou Yu, but Zhou Yu caught him. The Romance removes the immortals and apprentices, and elaborately embellishes the story, which makes the return of Heroes' Club Jiang Gan's Trap vivid and beautiful. Jiang Gan has also become a clown figure who is full of books and has made more contributions than others, just like in Heroes' Club.
