The burning of Chibi in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is actually completely different from the historical battle of Chibi. The battle of Chibi in history is actually very simple. Huang Gai gave Zhou Yu a plan to surrender Cao Cao by himself. The agreed surrender day led the Meng Chong warship to rush towards Cao Ying, and in the process lit the combustibles on the warship, and achieved the final victory by attacking Cao Ying by fire.
So, The battle of Chibi in the history, Huang Gai is the most credited, because the strategy was proposed and implemented by Huang Gai, Zhou Yu just made the right decision, of course Zhou Yu has the leadership. , in addition to them, the other people in the history of the Battle of Chibi have done little, including Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong.
But from the perspective of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the burning of Chibi is very exciting, including one after another classic stories, such as Jiang Qian’s stealing the book, the group of heroes Jiang Qianzhongji, Zhou Yu Fanjian, Zhuge Liang Caochuan borrowed an arrow Putting these stories together, Huang Gai’s bitter meat plan, Kan Ze’s fraudulent surrender plan, Pang Tong’s serial plan, Zhou Yu’s fire attack plan, and Zhuge Liang borrowed from the east wind, it is a complete Three Kingdoms version of the Battle of Chibi.
To put it simply, The Romance of the Three Kingdoms version of the Battle of Chibi has the greatest contribution to Zhou Yu, followed by Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang, Jiang Gan, Huang Gai, Kanze .
1, Zhou Yu
Although Zhou Yu was defeated by Zhuge Liang in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it was still the primary credit in the Battle of Chibi. Zhou Yu’s first credit was to trick Jiang Gan into passing Jiang Gan conveyed the wrong message to Cao Cao, inducing Cao Cao to kill the only generals who knew the navy, Cai Hao and Zhang Yun. Cao Cao killed his navy generals, which was tantamount to self-destruction of the Great Wall, and the battle on the Yangtze River was trapped. Passive situation, and this situation is the credit of Zhou Yu.
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhou Yu's contribution is called the countermeasure. The reason why Zhou Yu was able to successfully implement the countermeasures was based on the calculation of Jiang Gan, who was regarded as a clown in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and was easily deceived by Zhou Yu. The key is that Zhou Yu lasted twice. He didn't even notice it, and set off Zhou Yu's cleverness through Jiang Qian's stupidity.
In addition to Zhou Yu’s contribution to the fire attack, when everything was ready, Zhou Yu took advantage of Huang Gai’s opportunity to surrender to Cao Cao and ordered the warship to catch fire and rush towards Cao Ying. Cao Cao’s defeat in Chibi It was because of the fire attack. In fact, whether in history or in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the fire was not set by Zhuge Liang, but by Zhou Yu. At that time, Zhuge Liang could borrow the wind from the altar.
In addition, Zhou Yu was also the commander of the Soochow Army. All strategies were implemented by Zhou Yu’s decision. As the commander of Sun Quan, Zhou Yu’s leadership was the greatest contribution. All three armed forces will be able to win, so Zhou Yu is the biggest hero of the Three Kingdoms Battle of Chibi.
2, Pang Tong
The reason why Pang Tong is a secondary skill is that Pang Tong has seen through Zhou Yu’s tactics, and at the same time offered a series of tricks to Cao Cao. Pang Tong persuaded Cao Cao to use it. The iron chain locks all the warships together, which can reduce the bumps on the river surface, so that the northern soldiers under Cao Cao will not get seasick on the ship and can walk more freely. The key is that Cao Cao also accepted Pang Tong's strategy.
Even the Romance of the Three Kingdoms also said:
Chibi's fierce soldiers use fire to attack, and the operations and decisions are all the same. If it is not Pang Tong's serial strategy, can Gong Jinan make a big contribution?
means: If it weren’t for Pang Tong’s serial plan for Cao Cao, how could Zhou Yu make a big contribution? From these two sentences, we can see two things:
One is that Zhou Yu made great contributions in the Battle of Chibi.
The second is that the key to Zhou Yu's meritorious service is Pang Tongxian's serial plan.
So if Zhou Yu contributed the most, Pang Tong was second.
3, Zhugeliang
Zhuge Liang's performance in the Battle of Chibi was mainly fighting against Zhou Yu, and he also did two major things:
One is to borrow arrows from Cao Cao. Within three days, he borrowed one hundred thousand arrows from Cao Cao.
The second is by the east wind. Sun and Liu's coalition forces are on the south bank of the Yangtze River, and Cao Cao is on the north bank of the Yangtze River. If you want to attack from south to north, there must be a southeast wind. The ship can use the southeast wind to blow to Cao Cao’s camp. The Battle of Chibi took place during the extremely cold winter, where the southeast wind came from, so Zhuge Liang opened the altar and borrowed the southeast wind from God.
The fire attack can be carried out with the wind, so Zhuge Liang's borrowing from the east wind has a lot of credit, even without Zhuge Liang's borrowing from the east wind, it is really unknown whether the Battle of Chibi can burn Cao Cao, so Zhuge Liang's credit ranks first three.
4、蒋乾
Jiang Qian’s stupidity created Zhou Yu’s cleverness. As Cao Cao’s lobbyist, Jiang Qian persuaded Zhou Yu, if he didn’t succeed. , But Jiang Gan had many stupid things. First, Zhou Yu borrowed a false letter written by Cai Hao to let Jiang Gan steal and inform Cao Cao. All of a sudden, Cao Cao killed his navy generals and was in the middle of the water battle on the Yangtze River. Disadvantage.
It’s enough to be deceived by one person once, but Jiang Gan was deceived by Zhou Yu one after another, and Jiang Gan thought that he was smart, which is equivalent to being sold to help the kind of money, and brought Pang Tong to In front of Cao Cao, Pang Tong successfully implemented a series of strategies. Jiang Gan is really Cao Cao’s pig team and also a hero in the Battle of Chibi. Without his stupidity, Zhou Yu might not have won, so Jiang Gan’s contribution ranked fourth. .
5、Huang Gai
Huang Gai was the first contributor to the Battle of Chibi in history, but in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Huang Gai’s contribution was divided, and at the same time He gave Huang Gai a credit, which was the bitterness. Huang Gai deliberately violated the military order and was beaten with fifty spine sticks by Zhou Yu. He was beaten to the ground and bloody. Huang Gai could bear this bitterness. It was not easy. Then Huang Gai Using this as an excuse to surrender to Cao Cao, this is Huang Gai's hard work.
In addition, when Huang Gai surrendered, he personally led the army as a forward and drove the fireboat towards Cao Ying. This was risking his life for the final victory of the war, so Huang Gai ranked fifth in credit. .
6、Kanze
Kan Ze is Sun Quan’s counselor. He was the first double-reel play in Dongwu to identify Zhou Yu and Huang Gai, and did not say anything, but Volunteer to send a letter to Cao Ying for Huang Gai’s surrender, and with words to convince Cao Cao of Huang Gai’s bitterness, then Huang Gai took the opportunity of surrender to lead the fleet to attack Cao Cao. So in sum, Kan Ze also had credit. It's just that he contributed the least.
So , Zhou Yu, Pang Tong, Zhuge Liang, Jiang Gan, Huang Gai, Kanze These six people are all the heroes of the Battle of Chibi in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. They all have credits, but the credits have large and small. Zhou Yu’s contribution is the greatest, Pang Tong takes the second place, Zhuge Liang takes the second place, Jiang Gan takes the second place, and Huang Gai takes the second place. The least contribution is Kan Ze. This is the ranking of the contribution.
