is popular nowadays, with not only TV series, but also games.
I don’t know if everyone has played the Glorious Group’s “Wilson Snake Z”. In the world view of the game, the heroes of the Three Kingdoms period in China and the heroes of the Warring States period in Japan were included in a virtual world.

Later, characters such as Fuxi, Nuwa , Sun Wukong, Daji were also added.
The interaction of the characters in this game adds a new layer of fun to the stories of historical characters outside of history. The stories created are magical but also very attractive.

and other characters are benchmarks in their design, such as the strongest of the Three Kingdoms Lu Bu and Warring States first book Duo Tadasheng, and the same domineering Cao Cao and Oda Nobunaga .
Of course, the most impressive ones are the same handsome and brave Zhao Yun and Sanada Yukimura.
Zhao Yun vs Sanada Yukimura
However, there is no similarity between Zhao Yun and Sanada Yukimura.
Whether it is seven in and seven out in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", or the defeat of Cao's army in "The Three Kingdoms" in "The Three Kingdoms", Zhao Yun showed his bravery. Zhao Yun in the
94 version of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", originated from the Internet
, but Zhao Yun's most eye-catching performance is his goodness in choosing a master.
Zhao Yun was originally a subordinate of Gongsun Zan. After meeting Liu Bei , he took the initiative to follow. Although he left the entrepreneurial team due to objective reasons in the middle, his prestige was not as good as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei , but at least he was the "Yuan Cong" of Liu Bei Group.
In other words, the organization Zhao Yun joined is in the entrepreneurial period.
Although, after Liu Bei entered Shu, Zhao Yun did not become the "Five Tiger Generals" as in the Romance of the Romance, compared with Guan Yu and the four generals in front, back, left and right, Zhao Yun's status as the general of the Yi Army is not low.

Moreover, when Hanzhong front line, Huang Zhong was already the general of the Western Expedition. Sending troops to Tiandangshan also requires Zhao Yun's consent. It can be seen that Zhao Yun's voice in Liu Bei Group is also worthy of it.
When the great cause was first completed, he advised Liu Bei not to spend too much money, and also demonstrated Zhao Yun's overall view.
Zhao Yun in the official history is also both wise and brave, and does not have any special shortcomings. Therefore, after the Romance of the Romance, Zhao Yun became the most perfect general in people's minds. Zhao Yun in

In contrast, Yukimura Sanada originated and started from much better than Zhao Yun.
In the era when the Three Kingdoms were concerned about their origins, Zhao Yun's family did not help him much.
Sanada Yukimura's father, Masayuki Sanada, is the leader of a force. Sanada Yukimura was once given the name Toyotomi Nobuhima by Toyotomi Hideyoshi .

, which is undoubtedly extraordinary.
But at that time, Toyotomi Hideyoshi was already on the decline, and he died soon after, Toyotomi even more dissatisfied with the scheming Tokugawa Ieyasu .
And whether it is due to gratitude to Toyotomi or dissatisfaction with Tokugawa, the father and son have stood opposite to Ieyasu .

was exiled to house arrest after fighting against in . Masayuki Sanada passed away suddenly in this difficult life and disappointed waiting. At this time, Yuki Sanada's heart was filled with resentment towards the Tokugawa family:
"One day, one day, he will take the first of two generals, and promote Sanada's name The world...! ”
Just between such resentment and dreams, the youth of Yukimura Sanada quietly slipped away, and the difficult life made him grow old and grow old day by day...
fought fiercely in Osaka , Sanada fell
If Zhao Yun took the initiative to follow Liu Bei, it would be a reflection of Zhao Yun's wisdom of choosing a leader; Yukimura Sanada stood on the opposite side of Tokugawa , it would be helpless.
But after Yukimura came back, he reflected a completely different trajectory from Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun rarely led the large army to fight independently in the official history and Romance of the Chinese, but The Battle of Hanshui can still see Zhao Yun's strategy;
After the failure of the first Northern Expedition by Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun's army system was the most complete, and the retreat was relatively complete and orderly.
This can be seen, Zhao Yun is still full of famous general styles and cannot be simply defined as "bodyguard".
However, even the Shu Han regime where Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had withered one after another, Zhao Yun never acted as a pillar.
He has always been an important role, but he is not a core person.
But Yukimura Sanada is not the case. He can be said to be the most important figure in the end of the Toyotomi family.

When Sanada Yukimura arrived at the stronghold of Toyotomi's house Osaka Castle , he was immediately appointed as the commander of the army and frequently attended high-level military meetings as a military advisor.
Sana Yukimura's suggestion is to build a "Sana Maru" fortress in the south of Osaka Castle, which can not only block the Tokugawa army outside Osaka Castle, but also make up for the disadvantage of this area that is not dangerous to defend.
In the battle of the "Osaka Winter Formation", it confirmed the vision of Yukimura Sanada. Under the continuous increase in troops of Tokugawa's army, "Sana Maru" remained unmoved. Tokugawa Ieyasu had to come forward in person to persuade the frontline officers such as Maeda Takito to retreat.

Toyotomi family also signed a peace agreement with the Tokugawa family.
For Tokugawa, this is a delaying strategy; although Sanada Yukimura did not advocate peace agreement, the Toyotomi group, which was on the decline, decided to agree to Tokugawa's peace talks.
However, Yukimura Sanada knew that the war would come again.
Sure enough, Tokugawa Ieyasu launched the last battle against Toyotomi in the summer of the following year.
In this battle, Yukimura Sanada had a conflict with his friend Goto Kiji 's strategy. In order to calm the dispute, Toyotoshi divided the troops into two and took into account both plans.

, but when his strength is far inferior to Tokugawa Ieyasu, it is not a wise move to divide the troops.
Sure enough, Sanada Yukimura had already died before she arrived at the battlefield.
Sana Yukimura still relied on his outstanding command ability to severely damage Tokugawa's vanguard Ida Iron Artillery Team (actually musketeers).
In the final decisive battle, Yukimura Sanada once again showed his command ability and pointed directly at Tokugawa Ieyasu's team under the heavy siege.

, but because Ieyasu ordered the fall of the Shin-shi flag while running away, the Toyotomi Army could not find his place. This seemingly indecent practice instead highlights Ieyasu's superb commanding ability as an experienced conductor.
Finally, the exhausted Yukimura Sanada ended up with a grand life.
Jiang Wei is his confidant
It can be seen that Yukimura Sanada is very different from Zhao Yun in terms of origin, experience and ending.
However, there was really a general in Shu Han, whose life journey was similar to that of Yukimura Sanada.
That is Jiang Wei, and Jiang Wei switched from Cao Wei to the Shu Han camp. Jiang Wei from

Sanada Yukimura's father, Masayuki Sanada, first dated Takeda Shingen frequently, and even hugged Kenshin Uesugi, and later defected to Toyotomi Hideyoshi.
Sanada Yukimura's brother was also Tokugawa Ieyasu's son-in-law, which became the reason why he was rejected when he first arrived in Osaka Castle.
Jiang Wei could not get full support in Shu Han. He was first constrained by Fei Yi, and later because of Hu Ji's "lost time" in , he was defeated by Deng Ai in Duan Gu.
At the same time, the tactical style of the two is also focused on bold and risky. Jiang Wei from the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is from the Internet
Under the premise of insufficient strength, the first task is to protect yourself, and then to eliminate the enemy.
Whether it is Sanada Yukimura's proactive attack or Jiang Wei's "closing the door and beating the dog", they are actually a bit radical.
Moreover, both of them support a regime that is about to perish, and they both meet the lord who is not enterprising. Liu Chan of

Liu Chan's final choice is "sense of wiseness" or "can't help it", which proves that he is not the hero.
Sanada Yukimura repeatedly persuaded Toyotomi Hiderai to fight in person to boost morale.
But while Sanada Yukimura was fighting hard, Toyotomi Hidera secretly asked for peace with Tokugawa Ieyasu.
What's even more tragic is that both of them forced themselves in a situation where it was almost impossible to win, and they almost turned the tables, but failed again.
Jiang Wei pretended to surrender after the demise of Shu Han, and secretly instigated Zhonghui and to rebel successfully. He almost made a fortune and used Zhonghui to restore the country. Unfortunately, he died in the army in the end. Jiang Wei from the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is from the Internet
Yukimura is nearly three times the strength of the Xia Zhi formation and the city cannot stand firm and can only fight in the field. Tennoji charges to the death, and Maori Katsunaga breaks through the Tokugawa Army's main formation in desperate situation. If Ieyasu hadn't reacted quickly, he would have completed the beheading operation. Unfortunately, he failed and died in the end.
In the end, neither of them ended up well and wrote a hymn of loyal souls with full enthusiasm.
Jiang Wei was raised in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and Yukimura Sanada even reached Zhao Yun's popularity in Japan, which may be the result of each of us's promotion.

No matter which era, people always feel that dreams are out of reach, but the passion hidden in people's hearts will always exist. In these tragic heroes, they have more or less their own shadows, satisfying their psychological projection.
This makes the tragic hero who knows that he cannot do it has a natural halo in the East Asian cultural circle.
However, it is indeed wishful thinking that the Glorious Group compared Sanada Yukimura to Zhao Yun.
I can only say that the popularity of Sanada Yukimura in Japan is like that of Zhao Yun in China. The basis of this forced CP grouping is not based on real history.
