The two tragic generals of the Shu Han Dynasty: one fought alone for a month after Guan Yu died, the other was more tragic

Why did "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" abandon Cao Wei, who had a great family and a great career, and the emperor "sid", and instead regard the weak and weary Shu Han as the orthodox? In fact, the reason is very simple! Because in Shuhan, there is always a spirit or power that can shock you and me.

Regardless of the early life and death of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, the perseverance, or the mid and late stages, Zhuge Liang and Jiang Wei's dedication and devotion against the sky, the Shu Han was shining from beginning to end, shining with ears. Even if you close your eyes, you can still feel an unyielding sorrow of iron and blood...

One: the eternal "Shaoling Prefect"

The winter of 219 AD A little bit cold, the first general of the Shu Han Guan Yu defeated Jingzhou and died this winter. As news of Guan Yu's death spread in Jingzhou, all parts of Jingzhou surrendered to Soochow. But Xizhen, the captain of the northern Lingling, had no intention of surrendering at all. In order to preserve the city, he began to prepare.

Xi Zhen has a younger brother named Xi Hong, he is very calm, and said to his brother: "Now all parts of Jingzhou are rapidly falling apart. It is too difficult for us to hold the city with this strength. It is better to surrender and wait. The time comes back to the Shu Han.”

Xi Zhen agreed after thinking for a moment. But after all, Xi Zhen has too few staff. If he wants to achieve real results, he must contact other officials who are interested in Shuhan. So Xi Zhen quickly got in touch with Fan Zhou, and the two of them were ready to stand by and work together. Unexpectedly, this news was learned by Sun Quan.

So Sun Quan ordered Jingzhou general Pan Jun to lead five thousand elite soldiers to fight against Xi Zhen. For a while, black clouds fell over the city, and Xi Zhen was calm and composed, and led the troops of the seven counties under his jurisdiction. He proclaimed himself the "Shao Ling Prefect" and began to resist. But where is Xi Zhen's opponent? In the end all counties were lost, and Xi Zhen led only a few hundred people and retreated to a hill.

Pan Jun, originally engaged in the governance of the Shu Han Dynasty, Liu Bei ordered him to assist Guan Yu in guarding Jingzhou, but finally surrendered to Soochow. Faced with the unyielding Xi Zhen, Pan Jun was ashamed after all, so he ran down the mountain to persuade Xi Zhen to surrender. However, Xi Zhen shouted: "I will be a ghost of the Han, not the Wu Chen, and I can't force it." Then he raised his hand with an arrow, and Pan Jun was shocked to return, followed by furious, personally supervised the formation and ordered Wu Binggong Mountain was beaten back! Attacked again, still beaten back.

So, within a month or so, the flag of Shuhan still flutters on this hill. But at this moment, Xi Zhen has run out of ammunition and food, and can no longer resist Wu Bing's attack. Xi Zhen draws the sword in his hand, and the opponent speaks humanely: "Because of the kindness of the Han, I have to report it to death. What do the kings do?" After the words, Xi Zhen committed suicide!

On an inconspicuous hill in Jingzhou, a lonely Shaoling prefect, he fought blood for more than a month, until his food was exhausted! The so-called iron and blood tragedy is nothing more than this! Afterwards, Liu Bei learned of the great grief and died in Chengdu for Xi Zhen's funeral, and named Xi Zhen as "Prefect of Shao Ling"! (From "The Old Story of Xiangyang")

This is the soul of Shu Han, even if the building is overturned, there is still a generosity and tragedy, wrapped in iron horses and golden ge, came across thousands of years, just to maintain that loyalty!

Second: "Yong'an" De'an

Yong'an City is very famous, because after Liu Bei defeated Yiling, he left Zhuge Liang and died here. 40 years later, Liu Beituo's voice echoed in Yongan, but Zhuge Liang had passed away for many years, but news of Liu Chan's surrender suddenly came.

Yongan is in chaos, and many officials are so frightened that they all want to flee. Luo Xian, who was stationed in Yongan, was furious. After beheading several officials who wanted to escape, he stabilized Yongan City.

Soon, the Yibiao army of Soochow came and shouted to the city: "Brother Kaicheng, we Soochow are here to help you resist Cao Wei." Luo Xian stood at the head of the city and shouted: " The dynasty is overthrown, Wu is lip and tooth, and I don't appreciate my difficulties, but invite the benefits, I would rather be a captive!" (The Shuhan was subjugated, but you Wu Guoben was dependent on our lips and teeth, but came to take advantage of the fire to rob, what do you think of us Shu Han? Dream, how can I return to shameless villains like you!)

Wu Bing did not lie to open the city, onlyGot back. Unexpectedly, he came back shortly afterwards. This time it was the son of the famous general of the State of Wu, Lu Xun. Wars in Yong'an City followed.

Yongan has become an abandoned solitary city, and no one is relying on it. But Luo Xian stubbornly resisted for six months in order to preserve the last dignity of the Shu Han.

At this moment, there was a plague in the city. The sergeant suffered most of the damage. Some people advised him to flee, but Luo Xian shouted: "The husband is the master and the people admire him. My life is here!" (I Luo Xian is the support of all the people in the city, but now the situation is critical but let me escape. This is not the work of a gentleman, I want to live and die with Yongan!)

If Liu Bei Yingling is still in Yong'an, after hearing Luo Xian's words, he will smile at Jiuquan! Yongan, where Liu Bei died of illness, did not lose the face of Shu Han!

But can Yongan keep it? If there was the Shuhan court behind, it would have sent troops to rescue, but now who will rescue? Deng Ai, Zhong Hui, and Jiang Wei also all died in Jiang Wei’s rejuvenation not long ago, and Xichuan has long been a mess. But Luo Xian still clenched his teeth, what is iron-blooded sadness? Look at Luo Xian!

Perhaps Luo Xian's persistence moved God, Cao Wei Jingzhou governor Hu Lie suddenly led an army to attack Soochow, Lu Kang led the army back to help, Yongan was "safe", this can be called Created a miracle! In the end, Luo Xian obeyed Liu Chan's order and handed over Yongan City to Cao Wei. (From "Book of Jin")

Why can Shuhan become the orthodox in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"? Look at this shock when Luo Xian stayed alone in Yong'an City, even if the country was subjugated, he still fought bloody for six months, just to preserve the last dignity of the Shu Han!
