What is the character of Liu Bei, a figure in the Three Kingdoms?

Friends who like to see the Three Kingdoms will know that history. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty (A.D. 184), the Yellow Scarf Uprising led to the demise of Soochow (A.D. 280), and the Three Kingdoms returned to Jin. The history of nearly a hundred years is the most turbulent period in China's history. It was an era of war and smoke, and it was also an exciting era. It just verified the old saying that "there is a hero in troubled times". In this historical period, a large number of outstanding military strategists and politicians emerged, all of whom showed their magical powers and wrote the most brilliant page of their lives in troubled times. This period of history is the most valuable in military history, from the arrangement of troops on the ancient battlefield to the development of new combat weapons; Military strategy is a glorious period in history. The great battles that can leave their names in the history books on the land of China all took place in this period, such as the battle of Guandu by Cao Yuan and the battle of two victorious soldiers in Chibi in the later period.

There are many people's favorite names in the Three Kingdoms, such as Cao Cao, resourceful Zhuge Liang, Jiangdong talent Zhou Yu, Guan Yu with unparalleled loyalty and righteousness, and Zhao Yun with superior martial arts. Among them, Liu Bei, the founding emperor of Shu Han, will also be mentioned. Everyone has a different opinion of him. Some people say that he is a hypocrite and a cowardly villain. Some people will say that he is fishing in troubled waters, very pretentious and opportunistic. I think his position in people's minds is probably far inferior to that of Cao Cao, but there are some misunderstandings in this concept. Personally, I think that in the history of China, Liu Bei is by no means an ordinary person. He is an indomitable hero, and his talent is absolutely not inferior to that of Cao Cao.

In Shu Shu Shu Shu Shu, this is an evaluation of Liu Bei's childhood:

Without loneliness, I work as a mother vendor weaving mats. There are mulberry trees on the fence in the southeast corner of the shed. When you see Tong Tong as a car cover from a distance, people blame this tree for being extraordinary, or it is a noble person. During the Spring and Autumn Period of Han and Jin Dynasties, Li Dingyun, a distinguished man, said, "There must be noble people in this family." When my ancestors were young, they played with the children of Zhongzong under the tree and said, "I must use this feather to build a car." Uncle and son respectfully said, "Don't talk nonsense and destroy our door!" " "

A child of a civilian family dared to say that he wanted to be an emperor, which was beyond the imagination of ordinary adults in that feudal society. It can be seen that Liu Bei was quite ambitious when he was young. He is not willing to be poor, but he is thinking of building a career with indomitable spirit. This kind of superman's foresight is mostly an important factor contributing to his invisible and silent character. Because the teenager's family was poor (this can't be compared with Cao Cao who grew up in a honey pot), Liu Bei paid more attention to the sufferings of the people in his actions, which was impossible for people who grew up in ordinary feudal aristocratic families. This is what distinguishes Liu Bei from other feudal clans: he can look at everyone with an ordinary eye. And this is a moral standard that a person who is good at discovering and using talents should have; Liu's ideological realm was beyond the reach of all governors including Cao Cao at that time, which also made him recruit a large number of dead souls who were willing to work for him in his later journey. Liu's subordinates are mostly moved by his benevolence and righteousness, while Cao's subordinates are mostly from fame and fortune or family power, which is the fundamental difference between the two. Cao Cao himself is an outstanding strategist, so he pays more attention to the training of military commanders. So when he defeated Yuan Shao, Xu Jun killed Xu You in a rage, which was just a reprimand. Sun Quan, however, was born in a wealthy family since childhood and didn't care much about the working people at the lower level. According to official records, under his rule, civil strife often occurred in Dongwu area, which made him stay away from Pang Tong, Feng Chu, who came to him. From my personal point of view, Liu Bei is far superior to Cao Cao, Sun Quan and others in the exploration and utilization of talents. Otherwise, why did he come from humble origins and become a generation of emperors?

On liu bei's character. Liu Bei's personality is very unrestrained, and this person is very loyal, so he will have a deep affection for life and death with Zhang Guan. This is something that modern people cannot imagine and do. On the other hand, Liu Bei is more upright than Cao Cao. At first, Liu Bei organized volunteers to follow Zou Jingzheng's Yellow Scarf Army and was appointed as An Xiwei. Later, Du You, who was dissatisfied with his arrival in Han on business, was arrested, beaten up again, and then abandoned his official position and fled. Then, General He Jin sent Wu to Danyang to recruit soldiers, and Liu Bei joined him on the way. When he arrived in Xiapi, he fought against thieves and served as Xiami County Cheng. Soon, he resigned because he was dissatisfied with the court. In his early career, he resigned twice, showing that he is not a snob living in troubled times. He would rather give up his ambition than do something against his will. Cao Cao, on the other hand, "would rather lose the world than the world", and he is good at grasping the opportunity of the world. By comparing their personalities, the pros and cons will be clear.

The early period of troubled times was the most turbulent period in Liu Bei's life. He fought several wars and failed several times in exile. In such an environment, he is still indomitable and ambitious. Such perseverance is beyond the reach of ordinary people. When I lived in Liu Biao, I went up to Mao and found that his ribs were falling off. I couldn't help sighing, which showed his mind. Unfortunately, although Liu Biao treated Liu Bei with courtesy, he had some scruples about him, and Liu Bei made many heroes in Jingzhou, and he was more suspicious of him. Living in a tiny place in a new field, under such circumstances, Liu Bei can invite Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountain for reuse and defeat Cao Bing twice, thus gradually realizing the grand strategy of "three points in the world". If Liu Bei is a weak-willed person, how can his life be brilliant in the future? Liu Bei's success is not only his luck, but also his tenacious perseverance and the strength of everyone's little efforts. His country is hard-won.

Let's talk about Liu Bei's character again. Hehe, I admit that Liu Bei is a very "dramatic" person. There are also many stories about Liu Bei's acting skills in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. The most famous jokes are "Boiling wine on heroes" and "Liu Bei throwing dice". In fact, before this, Liu Bei did a lot of drama work. For example, when he took refuge in Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao tried to kill him three times, but Liu Bei killed him with tears in time. It was the sincerity of his tears that saved his life. We shouldn't read this character's jokes, but should be considerate of this character's inner difficulties. When the hero is frustrated, if he can't learn to save himself, how can he realize his ambition? The hero was also very helpless, but Yuan Shao and Cao Cao misunderstood his behavior and mistakenly thought he was a coward. Otherwise, Cao Cao's defeat in Hanzhong would not have issued: "I shouldn't have disobeyed Yu Xun and killed Big Ear Thief to avoid future trouble." I sighed.

Liu Bei is a straightforward person with both ability and political integrity. He is bold, generous and sociable. This is his advantage, but his thought of benevolence and righteousness is still limited and quite emotional. Otherwise, after Guan Yu's death, he would not give an excellent opportunity to destroy Wei, but went to war. I think it is a very happy thing to correctly understand a historical figure from a historical perspective; Among the many figures in the Three Kingdoms, I still admire Liu Bei. Although he is not a good emperor or a good politician, he is definitely a hero in the world, a hero in troubled times with an open mind and an iron frame.
