Chapter 14 The merits and demerits of Lu Bu's life
Lu Bu was the first fierce general of the Three Kingdoms. There is no doubt about that. Although his military strength is too high, Lu Bu's emotional intelligence is low, and he is not a military general with high emotional intelligence. In terms of emotional intelligence, I feel that it is even inferior to Zhao Yun. So what kind of person is Lu Bu?
What are Lu Bu's achievements and faults in his life?
Lu Bu's life can be described as magnificent.
Lu Bu is not the same as ordinary people. Do things honestly, but Lu Bu is different. The reason is that he will toss. Toss to come, toss to go. In the end, it ended up with ordinary people. It's to die.
So how did Lu Bu toss?
Lü Bu was the first to take up his post under Ding Yuan's account. He is a fierce general under Ding Yuan's account.
Lu Bu also recognized this former Bingzhou assassin Shi Ding as a "godfather". But this godfather can't do it long.
Later, under the battle between Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuocai saw Lu Bu's martial arts. Dong Zhuo admired Lu Bu very much.
So, Dong Zhuo's advisor Li Su used red rabbit horses and a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry to buy Lu Bu.
As soon as Lu Bu saw wealth and famous horses, his eyes turned red.
Under the temptation of this huge profit, Lu Bu gradually lost his mind. Emotional intelligence has also been lowered a lot.
Lu Bu really admitted at this time, immediately killed Ding Yuan, and took Ding Yuan's head to see Dong Zhuo. and began to recognize Dong Zhuo as his "father-in-law".
It can be seen from here that after Lu Bu killed the first "godfather". With his emotional intelligence. is heading towards Dong Zhuo, the second "godfather" is coming.
It is said that Lu Bu has two hobbies in his life. One is to recognize "godfather". The other is to kill the "godfather". So Lu Bu also has a nickname on the rivers and lakes. It is called "three surname house slaves". The inventor of this nickname is Zhang Fei.
Since Lu Bu recognized Dong Zhuo as his "godfather", Dong Zhuo was not afraid of the opposition secretly assassinating him. Because there is always a "personal bodyguard" Lu Bu standing next to him.
It's such a special relationship. Lu Bu also worked for Dong Zhuo. The more famous allusion is the scene of the Tiger Prison Pass Sanying fighting Lu Bu.
Lu Bu was desperate to fight with Liu, Guan, and Zhang at that time.
Later, Lu Bu followed Dong Zhuo to Chang'an.
At this time, a person appeared in Chang'an. This person is Situ Wang Yun.
Wang Yun is very eloquent and good at psychological analysis.
At this time, Wang Yun conspired with Lu Bu to kill Dong Zhuo.
This stems from the split in the relationship between Lu Bu and Dong Zhuo.
Later, Lu Bu was under the city of Chang'an. killed Dong Zhuo, the "father-in-law" he had known for many years.
From this point, it can be seen that Lu Bu killed Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo because Lu Bu could not always be loyal to his lord. And Lu Bu is also a person who is undecided. And Lu Bu is also a greedy and lustful person. Rather for some small desires. And kill your own lord. and killed his two lords with his own hands. The first Ding Yuan was wronged. The killing is not clear.
The second one to kill was Dong Zhuo. Although later generations commented that Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo in order to eliminate harm to all the people in the world. Meritorious work. But it can expose Lu Bu's disloyalty. So the foreshadowing was laid for his later death.
Later, when Lu Bu was guarding Chang'an City, he was defeated by Dong Zhuo's old subordinate Li Dao. Escaped from Chang'an. Become a real tramp.
is a homeless man like Lu Bu, after escaping from Chang'an. I want to defect to Yuan Shu. But a person like Yuan Shu is still an elder. He was afraid that Lu Bu would treat him like Dong Zhuo in the future. Therefore, Yuan Shu would rather accept Sun Ce than Lu Bu. Therefore, Yuan Shu naturally refused.
After that, in desperation, Lu Bu defected to Yuan Shao, and he could not be called a defector. It's okay to call it attachment.
Under Yuan Shao's care, he defeated Zhang Yan again. Some credit has been made. After that, due to the request for additional troops, assistance. connived at the plundering of his subordinates and was alienated by Yuan Shao. and was assassinated by Yuan Shao's faction. Xin Lu Bu fled. or he would have become Yuan Shao's ghost.
So, Lu Bu fled.
Lu Bu got rid of Er Yuan. At the time of passing through Zhang Miao. He took refuge in Zhang Yang again, and Zhang Miao adopted Chen Gong's advice and welcomed Lü Bu as the pastor of Yanzhou, and then went to war with Cao Cao.
Lü Bu was defeated by Cao Cao.
Since Lu Bu was defeated by Cao Cao, he has embarked on a path of sin. He took refuge in Liu Bei.
Liu Bei actually didn't want to take Lu Bu in. But under the pressure of the situation, he could only reluctantly take in this stray dog, Lu Bu.
In this way, the historical Lu Bu began his true path of depravity. Lu Bu took advantage of the war between Liu Bei and Yuan Shu. took the opportunity to take Xiapi.
Later, Lu Buyuan shot a halberd to help Liu Bei reconcile with Ji Ling (Yuan Shujun).
But it's not the same in history.
It was Ji Ling who helped Lu Bu reconcile with Liu Bei.
Later, there was a negative point in "Romance", Yuan Shu and Lu Bu married. Previously, it was said that Yuan Shu failed to marry Lu Bu. But in the official history, it was indeed the marriage of Yuan Shu and Lu Bu.
Then why did Chen Wa persuade Lu Bu not to marry Yuan Shu? There is no detailed explanation of this issue.
In fact, Chen Wa wanted to join forces with Lu Bu and Cao Cao. And Chen Wa later lined up his own son Chen Deng to see Cao Cao. is to join forces with Cao Cao to kill Lu Bu.
Yuan came to break the contract with Lu Bu after the operation. to attack Lü Bu. At this time, Chen Wa came out again. He helped Lü Bu defeat Yuan Shu with a stratagem.
In 198, Lu Bu and Cao Cao turned against each other. wants to unite with Yuan Shu to destroy his old club Liu Bei in one fell swoop.
As a result, there has not yet been a war with Liu Bei. was forced into a desperate situation by Cao Cao.
Cao Cao led his army to Xiapi. Lu Bu was going to surrender at this time. was stopped by Chen Gong and turned to Yuan Shu for help.
As a result, there was no movement on Yuan Shu's side.
The angry Lu Bu fought another battle with Cao Cao. It turned out to be a failure.
In the end, Lü Bu's army was surrounded by Cao Cao.
His subordinates tied up Chen Gong and went to see Cao Cao.
In the end, Lü Bu ascended the White Gate Tower and tried to surrender to Cao Cao.
In the end, Cao Cao adopted Liu Bei's advice and killed Lü Bu.
Throughout Lu Bu's life, there have been merits and achievements.
Kill Dong Zhuo, guard Chang'an, and beat Zhang Yan. also included the later Yuanmen Halberd Shooting, which helped Liu Bei reconcile with Ji Lingjun. This is the credit of Lu Bu.
Lu Bu's fault lies in not knowing his heart. As long as it is his lord, if he wants to kill for some interests, he will be beaten. It's like playing a child's temper.
Especially for Liu Bei, this kind of person is very annoying to Liu Bei.
In desperation, Cao Cao could only kill him.
Liu Bei is really not to blame for Lu Bu's death. He doesn't have the ability to survive in troubled times. It is his strategy to be too heavy on martial arts and light on literature. And only in a hard way. So Lu Bu's defeat was inevitable.
Lu Bu also has a top strategist Chen Gong. But he didn't listen to his words. If you listen to Chen Gong's good strategy early, you won't cry your father and call your mother on the White Gate Tower.
Lü Bu's failure was to use a rabble to manage his team. There is no long-term strategic planning at all. Only care about the present, only care about the present. And in front of you, you can't get any benefit from it.
Therefore, everyone's behavior cannot be learned from Lu Bu.
