Chapter 083: Liu Bei's Life
Liu Bei's life is mainly divided into two periods, one is the wandering period, and the other is the period of the princes who gradually occupied Jingzhou and Yizhou. The pen "fun" pavilion www.biquge.info Liu Bei was already quite prestigious at that time during the wandering period, and was successively reused by several princes, and then Liu Bei was in the battle of Chibi and Jiangling, and gradually got Jingzhou, Yizhou, Hanzhong, became one of the great princes at that time, and finally called the emperor to establish the country.
[Wandering period (?) ~209)】
Liu Bei lived a considerable displacement in the first half of his life, after the Yellow Turban Uprising, he rose with the waves, first served in the imperial court, but it did not go well, and later had to take refuge in many princes, including Gongsun Zhan, Tao Qian, Lu Bu, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Liu Biao and others.
During this period of time, Liu Bei basically sent people under the fence, the earliest classmate Gongsun Chan not only took in Liu Bei, but also gradually promoted to the plain minister, and then Tao Qian spent a lot of money to dig Liu Bei to Xuzhou in order to fight Cao Cao, Gongsun Chan did not say anything about this, it can be said that he has great kindness to Liu Bei, but then Liu Bei and Gongsun Chan in Xuzhou are far away, and there is not much contact.
Tao Qian treated Liu Bei better, not only recommended Liu Bei as the assassin of Yuzhou, but also left Xuzhou to Liu Bei after his death. As for Lu Bu, Liu Bei hated this ungrateful villain very much in history, Liu Bei accepted him when Lu Bu was defeated, but Lu Bu secretly colluded with Yuan Shu and took away his nest in Xuzhou while Liu Bei was on the front line, and finally Liu Bei had to temporarily submit to it, and then Lu Bu was afraid that Liu Bei would become bigger, so he was expelled from Xuzhou, Liu Bei had no choice but to take refuge in Cao Cao, and after Lu Bu surrendered, Liu Bei persuaded Cao Cao to kill him.
Compared to Tao Qian, Cao Cao was also very good to Liu Bei, but Liu Bei finally chose the Son of Heaven between Cao Cao and Emperor Xian and betrayed Cao Cao. Liu Beihou was actually reused when he was under Yuan Shao, but Liu Bei didn't stay long on Yuan Shao's side, and failed in Guandu Yuan Shao, and Liu Bei didn't dare to sabotage it in Yuzhou, so he went south and took refuge in Liu Biao.
Liu Bei stayed under Liu Biao for eight years (200-208), which may have been longer than the other princes combined, and Liu Biao's attitude towards Liu Bei was also very complicated, he regarded Liu Bei as a northern barrier, but he was careful to watch out for him, and then he had the intention of handing over Jingzhou to Liu Bei, and the two were more delicate.
During Liu Bei's wanderings, he also occupied Xuzhou twice, really had his own territory, became a prince, and did not always send people under the fence. It's just that Liu Bei occupied Xuzhou twice for a short time, first because of Lu Bu's betrayal and lost Xuzhou for the first time, and then rebelled against Cao Cao, but was quickly suppressed by him.
Nominally, Liu Bei was once Liu Cong's subordinate, but Liu Cong is a nominal prince who doesn't talk much about it.
【Period of the Princes (209~223)】
Although Liu Bei had reached an alliance with Sun Quan with the help of Zhuge Liang and others as early as the thirteenth year of Jian'an (208), in fact, Liu Bei was not a prince in the real sense at that time, because Liu Bei didn't even have his own territory at that time, and the Xiakou where he was located was still Liu Qi's, until after the Battle of Jiangling (209), Zhou Yu divided the public security and other places to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei could be regarded as a real prince at this time.
After Liu Bei took the public security as the base, began the action to seize Jingzhou, he first recommended Liu Qi as the pastor of Jingzhou, with the help of his name to control Jingzhou, and then he went south to seize the four counties of Jingnan on the one hand, on the other hand, he borrowed the south county from Sun Quan, after Liu Qi's death, part of the Jiangxia County he originally controlled was also owned by Liu Bei, so that Liu Bei had controlled Jingzhou's South County, Jiangxia County, Wuling County, Lingling County, Changsha County, Guiyang County and other six counties in a short period of time, although Nanjun and Jiangxia County were not complete, but it can also be said to occupy most of Jingzhou. At this time, Liu Bei had Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Mi Zhu and others, and Wu Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and other generals, which can be described as full of talents.
But this does not mean that Liu Bei's pressure is less, Cao Cao's power in the north is still huge, and it is not something that Liu Bei can challenge at that time, and Sun Quan, an ally in the east, is also ill-intentioned, Liu Bei himself has felt this during his trip to Jingkou, and Mrs. Sun, who is unscrupulous with her brother by her back, is reminding Liu Bei all the time. In the West, Yizhou was one of Liu Bei's inevitable targets in the "Longzhong Pair", and an unsuccessful expedition to the west by Sun Quan, Zhou Yu and others had also informed Liu Bei of the urgency of seizing Yizhou.
Fortunately, the sworn enemy Cao Cao also helped Liu Bei at this time, but he did not take Liu Zhang in his eyes, Liu Zhang sent envoys three times but did not give him a satisfactory answer, and also arrogantly ignored Liu Zhang's envoy Zhang Song, so that Liu Bei had the opportunity to win over Zhang Song, and finally with the help of Zhang Song, Liu Zhang gave up Cao Cao and joined forces with Liu Bei.
Later, it was Cao Cao who gave Liu Bei the opportunity to enter Yizhou, and Liu Zhang originally wanted to express himself to Liu Bei at most, but later because Cao Cao sent Xiahou Yuan and others to send troops to Hanzhong, Liu Zhang was afraid that Cao Cao would further seize Yizhou, so he welcomed Liu Bei into Shu under the persuasion of Zhang Song and others.
Liu Zhang's move is tantamount to luring the wolf into the room, and Liu Bei is worried that he has no chance! After Liu Bei entered Shu, because of Zhang Song's death, the two completely broke up, Liu Bei went south from the north, and in the same year transferred Zhuge Liang, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and others in Jingzhou into Shu to jointly attack Yizhou, and then Liu Bei dug up the fierce general Ma Chao, Liu Zhang finally chose to surrender, and Yizhou was owned by Liu Bei.
But at the same time, there was a crack in the alliance between Liu Bei and Sun Quan, originally Sun Quan was dissatisfied because Liu Bei privately cut down Shu, and then Liu Bei was unwilling to return the borrowed territory, the two almost fought each other, and finally Liu Bei sued for peace under the pressure of Cao Cao, and the two sides took Xiangshui as the boundary and ruled the river.
After Liu Bei also defeated Cao Cao with the help of Fa Zheng and others to occupy Hanzhong, and also sent Meng Da, Liu Feng and others to seize Shangyong and other places, Guan Yu launched the battle of Xiangfan after the flooding of the Seventh Army, captured to kill Pang, shocked China, Liu Bei's group of momentum also reached the highest peak.
Since then, Liu Bei Group has begun to flourish and decline, and Liu Bei has also begun to decline. First, Sun Quan betrayed the alliance, attacked and killed Guan Yu, and captured Jingzhou, and then the change of Shangyong, Meng Da surrendered to the enemy, and Liu Feng was forced to commit suicide. After Liu Bei became emperor, he personally sent troops to avenge Guan Yu, but he was defeated by Lu Xun, lost his troops, and died of illness soon after.
When Liu Bei was dying, the core members of the Shuhan Group had almost been swept away, and the four generals Guan Yu, Huang Zhong, Zhang Fei, and Ma Chao who were personally appointed by Liu Bei had passed away one after another, and Liu Bei's important ministers Pang Tong, Fa Zheng, Mi Zhu, and Xu Jing also left before him, and there were very few people left.
