Throughout the ages, when talking about brave and capable heroes, everyone may think of Yue Fei, who served his country loyally, Huo Qubing, who fought in Mobei, or Hua Mulan, who joined the army in place of his father. In fact, Guan Erye, Guan Yu, who was named the "Martial Saint ", is also a great hero who must be mentioned.
In the era of the Three Kingdoms when heroes emerged in large numbers, Guan Yu relied on a Qinglong Yanyue Sword to kill everyone, and successfully became a well-known god of death. Many people even chose to admit defeat directly when they met Guan Erye. , or run away.
In the film and television drama "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the author vividly demonstrated the domineering appearance of Guan Yuyi and Bo Yuntian, bravely championing the three armies . Among them, the most amazing thing is that there were as many as seventeen generals who died under Guan Yu's sword.
However, some people think it is nineteen, because they feel that Wen Chou, a general in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and Hua Xiong, who was under Dong Zhuo's account in the late Han Dynasty, were also killed by Guan Erye. According to official historical records, Wen Chou and Hua Xiong were indeed not killed by Guan Yu, so who was their murderer?
Which generals did the martial sage Guan Yu kill in his life? How did these generals die under the Qinglong Yanyue Sword? Today, let’s talk about the story.
List of generals killed by Guan Yu
In the film and television drama "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Guan Yu met gods and killed gods and Buddhas along the way, and beheaded more than ten generals. The first one was Yellow Turban Army General Cheng Yuanzhi. At that time, it was the late Han Dynasty, and the Yellow Turban Army caused chaos in the world and made the people miserable.
As Liu Bei brother and subordinate Guan Erye, naturally he must follow Liu Bei's steps and work together to quell this chaos. And Cheng Yuanzhi, an unlucky old man, suddenly met Guan Yu, the God of Death, and naturally became a dead soul under the Qinglong Yanyue Sword.
Immediately afterwards, another general of the Yellow Turban Army, Guan Hai, also came to die. Guan Yu naturally accepted his head without ceremony. One wave after another broke out, and Dong Zhuo's rebellion once again made people panic. A group of heroes gathered by the Sishui River.
It was also at this time that someone rumored that Guan Yu had killed Hua Xiong, the general under Dong Zhuo's account. This rumor made Guan Yu, who was originally unknown after Liu Bei's death, famous. However, Guan Yu still only listened to his elder brother Liu Bei's words, and even helped his elder brother kill General Xun Zheng under Yuan Shu.
Later, Liu Bei slowly showed the strength of his Han clan and faintly ascended to the three-legged position. What followed was the betrayal of his allies. Seeing Liu Bei shocked and angry, Guan Yu immediately picked up the knife to avenge his eldest brother.
He first lured the enemy deep and eliminated the two generals Han Siam and Yang Feng under Lu Bu . He also killed Chariot under Cao Cao with one blow, which can be described as extraordinary bravery. Later, Liu Bei was defeated at the hands of Cao Cao, and the victorious general Guan Yu could only follow Cao Cao.
According to legend, Guan Yu also killed Eastern Han general Wen Chou for Cao Cao. It was at this time that Guan Yu learned that Liu Bei was not dead. Guan Yu, who knew the news about his elder brother, immediately rushed back to Shuhan. Along the way, he met gods and killed gods and Buddhas.
He successively killed six generals: Dongling Pass Kong Xiu, Luoyang Han Fu, Meng Tan , Sishui Pass Bian Xi , Xingyang Wang Zhi, and Yellow River Ferry Qin Qi . After all, "Martial Saint" Guan Yu is a complete "brother control", and no one can stop him from meeting his brother Liu Bei.
In this way, Guan Yu guarded Liu Bei all the way and was used by his sworn brother, killing seventeen generals in his life. Of course, the lives of these seventeen generals were more or less mixed with some moisture.
Because he wanted Guan Yu to look more loyal and brave, the author of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" Luo Guanzhong adapted it based on historical facts. In official history, Guan Yu only killed two famous generals, and they were not Wen Chou and Hua Xiong.
The famous generals who were actually beheaded by Guan Yu
In history, the first famous general who was beheaded by Guan Yu was Yan Liang. Yan Liang was a general under the warlord Yuan Shao in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and Yuan Shao relied heavily on him. Killing Yan Liang was also the first major thing Guan Yu accomplished for Cao Cao when he was forced to surrender to Cao Cao.
At that time, when Yuan Shu was defeated and had completely withdrawn from the stage of history, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were left behind, each seeing the other as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh, The Battle of Guandu was about to break out. However, there is a huge disparity in strength between the two sides. Yuan Shao's 110,000 troops are ready to attack, and the vanguard Yan Liang is the first to attack Baima.
Cao Cao only had an army of 20,000, which made Cao Cao very anxious. Fortunately, the military advisor came up with a way to "make a sound in the east and attack in the west". The method was to have his soldiers pretend to cross the river to attack Yuan Shao, but in fact he sent Guan Yu to Baima for a sneak attack.
As expected, most of Yuan Shao's troops were attracted to Yanjin , leaving only Yan Liang and part of his troops to garrison Baima. By the time Yan Liang reacted, he was already a turtle in the urn, and Guan Yu, who always raised a knife and dropped it, directly took Yan Liang's head.
Since then, the Battle of Guandu has become famous all over the world, and Guan Yu has also become famous. As for General Yan Liang, he can only become a thing of the past. In addition to Yan Liang, there was another general in history who also died at the hands of Guan Yu. He was Pound .
Pang De was originally a military general under Ma Teng , and he repeatedly performed extraordinary feats under Ma Teng. However, Pang De's experience was very tortuous. After leaving Ma Teng, he first defected to Cao Cao, and then was assigned to work under Ma Chao . Later, he defected to Zhang Lu, and finally returned to Cao Cao's staff. A big circle.
When Guan Yu and Pang De met, it was when he was serving as an errand under Cao Cao. At that time, it was the Battle of Xiangfan. Pang De and Yu Jin were guarding Fancheng together. However, Yu Jin was a pig teammate. Guan Yu completely cut off Cao Cao's seven reinforcements with one move and captured Yu Jin and Pang De alive.
However, heroes cherish heroes. Facing the captured Pang De, Guan Yu chose to persuade him to surrender, but Pang De was a tough guy. No matter how good Guan Yu tried to persuade him, Pang De would not let go and even pointed at Guan Yu. The nose scolded.
How could the ill-tempered Guan Erye endure such insults from Pang De? He immediately raised his Qinglong Yanyue Sword and sent Pang De away with one blow. At this point, Cao Cao's famous general completely returned to the west and became Guan Yu's second subordinate. The souls of two generals.
Who killed Wen Chou and Hua Xiong?
As for the widely rumored deaths of Wen Chou and Hua Xiong in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", they were not caused by Guan Yu. Even the deaths of these two people had almost nothing to do with Guan Erye. Hua Xiong died during the Three Kingdoms period and was the founder of the Wu regime Sun Jian's hand.
At that time, when Dong Zhuo was in rebellion, warlords from all walks of life formed an alliance to attack Dong Zhuo. As Dong Zhuo's highly valued general, Hua Xiong naturally had to charge into the battle. It was in this chaos that Hua Xiong was killed by Sun Jian.
Guan Yu never appeared in this melee, so Guan Yu's killing of Hua Xiong was just a rumor, and Wen Chou's death was even simpler. Since Yan Liang was killed by Guan Yu, Yuan Shao could only use Wen Chou as the vanguard general and sent Wen Chou to attack Cao Cao.
However, Cao Cao was accustomed to being the master of intrigues. With one move, he used retreat to advance and instantly disintegrated the army soldiers led by Wen Chou, and Wen Chou, the forward general, also died on the battlefield. It can only be said that Guan Yu pushed Wen Chou in this war, but Wen Chou's death had nothing to do with Guan Yu.
Generally speaking, Guan Yu in history is not as invincible as in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". But it is undeniable that Guan Yu is a great hero who will go down in history, especially Qian Lixun's brother's loyalty, which made him famous for future generations.
