Chen Gong is a short-lived little character in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Originally, he followed Cao Cao well. If Chen Gong does not oppose Cao Cao, when Cao Cao becomes the king, Chen Gong will be regarded as a veteran with high authority. Gong just didn't know the goods, and Cao Cao, who had high-quality stocks, didn't want it. He didn't even choose potential stocks like Liu Bei, so he chose Lu Bu, a junk stock. Chen Gong's vision was really problematic.
The reason why Chen Gong rebelled against Cao Cao has always been that Cao Cao killed Bian Rang and some Yanzhou celebrities. Chen Gong was angry and rebelled against Cao Cao to meet Lv Bu, but the deeper reason was obviously not Chen Gong’s revenge, but Yanzhou’s back. Power struggle.
From Chen Gong’s subsequent behavior, it can be seen that Chen Gong is a man with a strong desire for power. From his opposition to Cao Cao, only three cities in Yanzhou are loyal to Cao Cao and the rest can be seen. In fact, Cao Cao did not get the support of the local gentry.
The local forces at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty were basically in the hands of the elites. Most of the rising forces chose to cooperate with the elites, such as Yuan Shao and Liu Biao. Jingzhou.
So the ultimate goal of Chen Gong betraying Cao Cao is to rely on Yanzhou native gentry to gain political power, or to say that Yan people rule Yan, Chen Gong is a native of Yanzhou East County.
Since Chen Gong has a desire for political power, he does not want anyone to share his power. Chen Gong asked Zhang Miao to join, and the fundamental reason for Yingli Lu Bu to join was to use them against Cao Cao, but Chen Gong did not I hope they are strong, Chen Gong just used Zhang Miao and Lu Bu, and after the use of them, they would abandon them, and then they would take power.
Lu Bu just meets Chen Gong’s requirements. Lu Bu has the courage and no ambitions, three betrayal of his master, no loyalty test, no strategy, only courage, I am afraid that the entire Three Kingdoms best meets Chen Palace condition people.
Why didn't Chen Gong choose Liu Bei's assistant?
In fact, when Chen Gong saw Liu Bei for the first time and was defeated by Cao Cao and driven out of Yanzhou and came to Xuzhou, Liu Bei was Xuzhou Mu at that time. After Tao Qian passed away, Xuzhou was surrendered to Liu Bei. Spokesperson-Xuzhou Mu.
When Cao Cao defeated Chen Gong and Lu Bu and asked Liu Bei for help, Liu Bei kindly took them in, but Chen Gong and Lu Bu attacked Liu Bei’s rear when Liu Bei and Yuan Shu were fighting on the front line. what? This is called En will revenge.
One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers. There can only be one lord of Xuzhou. It turned out to be Liu Bei. Later, he was robbed by Chen Gong and Lv Bu. Liu Bei lost Xuzhou and turned his head to take refuge in Lv Bu. This operation of Liu Bei can be regarded as invincible , But in order to survive, Liu Bei dared to surrender to Lu Bu in spite of his face.
At this time, Chen Gong’s status is better than Liu Bei. How can Chen Gong be Lu Bu’s partner and Liu Bei is Lu Bu’s vassal. Could Chen Gong take refuge in Liu Bei? Of course not. After
Liu Bei and Lu Bu fell out again. Lu Bu sent people to attack Liu Bei. If Liu Bei failed to win, he turned to Cao Cao. He became Chen Gong and Lu Bu’s enemy completely, and Chen Gong was even less likely to take refuge in Liu Bei.
Why did Chen Gong abandon Cao Cao to assist the brave and inexperienced Lu Bu, instead of assisting the ambitious Liu Bei?
Chen Gong and Liu Bei met at that meeting. Since Lu Bu's attack on Xuzhou, Liu Bei's status has plummeted. Before Lu Bu's attack on Xuzhou, Chen Gong and Lu Bu had taken refuge in Liu Bei, but later they defected and seized Liu Bei's. Xuzhou.
