Zhou Yu in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is very smart. How does Zhuge Liang evaluate him?

Looking through the official history, you can find that Zhou Yu in this biography has no shortcomings and is indeed a perfect person. It can be said that he is a virtuous person. Talented; personable person.

De: He can compare his recommendation with Uncle Bao; his politeness and loyalty are unparalleled;

Talent: He made great contributions to the establishment of Soochow; Chibi also turned the tide, He made great efforts; later he took the initiative to develop Jingzhou for Wu Dong and did not mention his great achievements. It was just people's evaluation of him at that time. His versatility in both civil and military affairs attracted much attention in the eyes of people at that time. "Talents are different"; "Wang Zuo's talents"; "Young and talented"; "Civil and military strategies, the wisdom of thousands of people", these were the evaluations of Zhou Yu's talents by people at that time, and the people who said these words were all first-class figures at that time. Zhou Yu's talent has been recognized, so there is no need to make a fuss.

As for his demeanor, Zhou Yu was a famous Confucian general. He was very elegant and had a popular song called "Song Cuo Gu". He was not as elegant as those rough warriors. Just saying "thinking of Gong Jin back then" makes people fascinated by his appearance.

Finally, let’s talk about his spirit. Zhou Yu is not only virtuous and talented, but also has a unique spirit. He is a brave, confident and heroic hero. He is humble and courteous to his people, but displays contempt and fearless heroism towards enemies and challenges: when Liu Bei and Zhou Yu met before the Battle of Chibi, when Liu Bei said that the troops were too few, Zhou Lang's answer was "Self-sufficient? Self-destructive?" So majestic, Liu Bei's delay was so insignificant compared to others. Zhou Yu's strategies all reveal this preemptive and resolute temperament, which is the most enviable "genius". However, there is an essential difference between Zhou Yu's heroism and Guan Yu's arrogance, because his self-confidence is based on reasonable analysis and planning, which is also the reason for Zhou Yu's success. His temperament is similar to that of Sun Ce, but Sun Ce is frivolous and bloodthirsty, while Zhou Yu is calm and refined. Some people say that his temperament is a combination of Sun Ce and Zhuge Liang. In Zhou Yu, the balance of strength and softness is just right.

Such a man of both strength and softness has an impeccable character and impressive civil and military talents. In addition, God also gave him a special preference for handsome appearance. He is beautiful both inside and outside, and has a graceful demeanor. He's not perfect, but who can be? One sentence is really suitable to describe Zhou Yu. He can be described by his name: Zhou Yu, like his name, is a piece of flawless jade.
