Like many separatist regimes, Cao Cao made his debut under the banner of suppressing the yellow turban insurrectionary uprising. As a historical figure, Cao Cao was indeed a man who made great achievements in politics, military affairs and literature in China feudal society. However, as a typical representative of the exploiting class, Cao Cao also has very prominent evil morals and bad behaviors.
First of all, when he attacked Xuzhou, he slaughtered the city three times. For example, in the fourth year of Chuping, the Xuzhou massacre, "Enqian, pulling out the embankment, Luoling, and all slaughtered, killing hundreds of thousands of men and women. Chickens and dogs are no longer there, and Surabaya does not flow. " Excuse me, is this the behavior that Cao Cao's most outstanding politician should hold? At least I'm sorry for his behavior. His outstanding politician should be questioned.
Second, Liu Zhiji in The Stone? Cao Cao said in the chapter "Exploration": "It is the common sin and disaster of Qian Qian's ten thousand follies that a thief kills his mother and steals his master." At that time, Cao Cao's contribution to the country was indeed considerable, but can this kind of behavior be done by courtiers? History has a clear answer. Cao Cao must be a traitor. Although he also has a masculine side, it can't be offset by merits and demerits.
Third, Cao Cao killed Lv Boshe. This story is familiar to everyone. When Cao Cao was in trouble, he lived in the home of his old friend Lv Boshe. The old friend treated him warmly and told his family to kill the chicken and prepared a dinner for Cao Cao. Unexpectedly, Cao Cao suspected that the other party was going to kill him and left in a hurry in the middle of the night. Unexpectedly, he met an old friend who came back from drinking on the road. Seeing something bad, Cao Cao killed such an innocent good man in extreme tension and fear. After the murder, Cao Cao not only failed to reflect, but even said arrogantly, "It is better to die than to die." In other words, I can fail everyone in the world, and everyone in the world can never fail me. We should not only deny this extreme egoism, but also severely criticize it.
Fourth, Cao Cao killed the hero "two Xun orders" and so on. Yu Xun Xun You was a famous politician in the Han Dynasty, a hero and loyal minister in the Han Dynasty and, of course, a confidant of Cao Cao. After Battle of Red Cliffs, Cao Cao stepped up his efforts to expand his strength. His selfish desire for power swelled his ambition. He promoted Gong Wei and Wang Wei successively and established his own court. Erxun also saw this and tried to dissuade him. Unexpectedly, at this time, Cao Cao couldn't control his desire and killed Erxun one after another. Things like this are endless, such as killing Kong Rong.
Next, let me talk about Cao Cao's military situation. As we all know, when Cao Cao died, only Sun Quan and Liu Bei were left in the world. He fought many beautiful battles in his life, such as the battle of Guandu, which laid the foundation of northern rule, and the destruction of Yuan Shu and the killing of Lu Bu. But I want to tell you that some problems should not be located by results. Because the greatest success can never replace the past experience, just as the noise of the day can never replace the silence of the night.
So, I want to discuss the process with you. For example. When Cao Cao attacked Zhang Xiu for the first time, Zhang Xiu decided to surrender without resistance. Cao Cao was overjoyed and went to Zhang Xiu and Zhong Jun. Unfortunately, due to the busy military affairs, he took a fancy to Zhang Xiu's aunt. You can think how old Zhang Xiu's aunt should be. But at this time, Cao Cao, who was in his prime, actually took a fancy to this older woman and tried to have sex with her after playing. This move made Zhang Xiu very angry and ashamed, so he decided to take action on the spot. Caught off guard, Cao Cao finally saved his life after losing Dian Wei, a famous soldier, and Cao Anmin, the nephew of his eldest son Cao Ang. Is this what a famous senior general should do?
Let me give you another example. When Cao Cao went to Chen, he joined the vassal to crusade against Dong Zhuo. Zhuo was defeated by Sun Jian and left Luoyang. But Cao Cao was eager for success, and he was proud of his courage. Without Cao Hong's help, he would have died under ten thousand arrows. We can see Cao Cao's greed and imprudence. He gave up Luoyang easily, which is undoubtedly a taboo for military strategists. Therefore, I don't think Cao Cao is an outstanding strategist.
Cao Cao in history was originally a very complicated figure. He is a hero who swept the pack and gradually unified the north, and a murderer who brutally suppressed the peasant uprising; He is not only a hero who restores and develops social production, but also a sinner who is "ruined"; He is not only an entrepreneur who is good at recruiting talents, but also an unjust person who is treacherous, jealous and kills people at will. Comrade Li Xifan put it well: "Ordinary people can't always remember Cao Cao's short-lived political and economic measures that are beneficial to historical development, and at the same time, they should erase the blood of" mutilation "and" slaughter "left by him in the war of annexing heroes. Recently, there have been many discussions in the society to reverse Cao Cao's conviction. In my opinion, it should be admitted that some books in history do reflect certain historical truth, and I am sure of it, such as Romance of the Three Kingdoms. We should fully affirm their educational significance and cognitive value, but we can't deny them just because they don't reflect Cao Cao's contribution in politics, let alone take them as a reason to "reverse Cao Cao's conviction".
I don't just understand talent and ability. More should be excellent, outstanding, Jie Jun. Cao Cao's above points have nothing to do with Jie Jun and Excellence
