Did Guan Yu attack Yan Liang? Judging from the strength of the two, what will be the result of a fair one-on-one fight?

Guan Yu beheaded Yan Liang in Chapter 25 of The Romance of The Three Kingdoms. Let's talk about the background of this event first. This is the skirmish between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, the battle of Guandu and the battle of White Horse. Yan Liang led 65,438+10,000 troops to fight Cao Cao, and the two sides kicked off with military commanders. Yan Liang began his performance, first killing Song Xian in three rounds, then killing Xu Wei in one round, and then defeating Huang Xu in twenty rounds.

Then Li Ran, Cao Cao's general, got scared, so Cao Cao withdrew his troops and dared not fight again. On the one hand, no one dared to challenge Yan Liang; on the other hand, Cao Cao was unwilling to let his generals die again. Cao Cao was killed by two generals, Song Xian and Xu Wei, and his heart began to be depressed. These two men were originally eight masters under Lu Bu, and their martial arts were third-rate. In less than three rounds, they were all cut by Yan Liang, which shows that Yan Liang's force is superior.

The other is that Huang Xu was defeated. Huang Xu is a first-class military commander with an upper-middle level. He once drew with Super Chu Xu in 50 rounds. Because of Huang Xu's failure, even Chu Xu dare not challenge Yan Liang, because Chu Xu can't beat Huang Xu in 20 rounds, but Yan Liang can. This is the force gap. According to this record, Yan Liang is also a superb Athens.

Some people say that Chu Xu is not present. Logically speaking, Chu Xu is Cao Cao's bodyguard. How can he not be present in such an important battle? He just didn't want to go to war, or Cao Cao didn't want him to go to war. Then Cheng Yu gave Cao Cao an idea. Cheng Yu said: It's only about slaying Yan Liang. If Guan Yu slays Yan Liang, Liu Bei will be killed by Yuan Shao, so that Yan Liang can be killed and Guan Yu can stay in Cao's camp.

Guan Yu was Cao Cao's favorite person at that time, and Cao Cao never dreamed that Guan Yu would really take refuge in him. Cao Cao's attitude towards Guan Yu is: three-day small banquet, five-day big banquet, getting on the horse with a gold, getting off the horse with a silver, a beautiful woman, a marquis, and even Lu Bu's red hare.

Guan Yu was not at the front. Cao Cao and Cheng Yu invited Guan Yu to the front to deal with Yan Liang. Because no one in the whole Cao Cao camp dared to challenge Yan Liang, the battle had to continue, so Guan Yu went on stage.

In the eyes of Cao Cao and Cheng Yu, if Guan Yu was no match for Yan Liang, they would not ask Guan Yu to deal with Yan Liang. In the eyes of Cao Cao and Cheng Yu, Guan Yu's martial arts are higher than Yan Liang's, which is the premise of the whole thing.

Cao Cao said: Hebei people are so magnificent. Guan Yu disdainfully said: in my opinion, it's like a dog's ear! Cao Cao said, "It was Yan Liang who embroidered the robe and put it under the cover and mounted the horse with a knife. Guan Yu replied lightly: My view of Yan Liang is like selling the first ear!

Guan Yu's attitude is completely dismissive of Yan Liang. Didn't Guan Yu know that Yan Liang defeated Huang Xu in the 20th round? Of course, Guan Yu and Huang Xu have a friendship. Since Guan Yu's attitude is so, it shows that he has a complete grasp of fighting Yan Liang. You know, if you don't do it, it's a capital crime.

Looking back now, Cao Cao and Cheng Yu thought that only the relatives were Yan Liang's enemies, but Guan Yu himself did not take Yan Liang seriously. Guan Yu was full of confidence before the two men fought one-on-one. Where does this confidence come from?

Finally, how did Guan Yu slay Yan Liang?

Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Duke Guan rode his horse backwards with dragon sword and ran down the mountain. His eyes were wide open and the silkworm's eyebrows were straight. Hebei army is like stormy waves, and Guan Gong is heading for Yan Liang. Yan Liang, under the cover, saw Guan Yu coming and wanted to ask, Guan Yu reacted quickly and ran to the front; Yan Liang caught off guard and was stabbed by Yun Chang. Dismount abruptly, cut off Yan Liang's head, tie it under the horse's neck, fly on horseback, and go out with a knife, like nobody's business. According to the complete records of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Guan Yu rode a red hare and armed with dragon sword, and rushed into Yan Liang's army alone. And Guan Yu went straight to Yan Liang under the cover of the people. His goal is clear, that is, to kill Yan Liang. There are two words in this record that seem very special:

One: When Yan Liang saw Guan Yu coming, his action was: Fang wanted to ask when. In other words, when Yan Liang looked at Guan Yu, he was not ready to meet them, but to ask questions. What does Yan Liang want to ask? We can speculate. It is nothing more than asking: who is the new person? Tell me your name.

Two: When Guan Yu rushed to Yan Liang on a red hare, Yan Liang was caught off guard. Caught off guard is unprepared, or completely unprepared, and then directly killed by Guan Yu. Guan Yu dismounted and cut Yan Liang's head, and then returned to Cao Ying. No one dared to stop Guan Yu.

In other editions of The Romance of The Three Kingdoms, there is a story that Liu Bei once told Yan Liang: I have a younger brother named Guan Yunchang, who is with Cao Cao. If you see him, you can teach him. Liu Bei also described Guan Yu's appearance to Yan Liang, so when Guan Yu rushed in, Yan Liang was caught off guard, which led to his death.

However, this does not mean that Guan Yu's attack on Yan Liang is a sneak attack, because Guan Yu rushed up alone and wanted to fight Yan Liang one-on-one. Guan Yu didn't know what Liu Bei told Yan Liang. Guan Yu didn't attack Yan Liang. He just wanted to kill Yan Liang, and he rushed to his face. Have you ever seen a face-to-face attack?

As for Yan Liang's listening to Liu Bei, he was not ready to fight. That's Yan Liang's problem. Besides, what is a sneak attack? A sneak attack is a sneak attack, one-on-one face-to-face. One side is not ready and is killed by the other side. How can you say that the other party is a sneak attack? That doesn't make sense at all.

Therefore, Guan Yu's beheading of Yan Liang was not a sneak attack at all, but a problem of Yan Liang's own negligence. Besides, it also involves the martial arts of two people. How do Guan Yu and Yan Liang compare in martial arts?

Guan Yu's best record before killing Yan Liang was beheading Hua Xiong in several rounds. Hua Xiong's power is underestimated. Facing Hua Xiong, the 18th Route Warlord was beheaded and defeated in succession. Hua Xiong is definitely a first-class military commander. Even Jiang Donghu Sun Jian is no match for Hua Xiong, but Hua Xiong's sharpness was covered by Lu Bu and beheaded by Guan Yu, so he was not so famous.

Yuan Shao once said: It's a pity that my generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou didn't arrive! If you want to be here alone, why are you afraid of Hua Xiong? Yuan Shao said that Yan Liang and Wen Chou each have one person, so don't be afraid of Hua Xiong. He dare not say that Yan Liang and Wen Chou cut Hua Xiong, so the gold content of Guan Yu's cutting Hua Xiong is actually quite high, and it is when there is no red hare.

Guan Yu also joined hands with Zhang Fei to fight Lu Bu for 30 rounds, regardless of the outcome, and there were three British battles against Lu Bu. The three men teamed up to defeat Lu Bu. As far as martial arts are concerned, Guan Yu's force is actually superb. And Yan Liang beat Huang Xu by force for 20 rounds, which is considered to be superb. What would happen if two first-class Athens fought one on one?

Take Huang Xu as a reference first. In the Battle of White Horse, Yan Liang defeated Huang Xu in only 20 rounds. 19 later, Guan Yu and Huang Xu were injured in their right arms at that time, and they fought for eighty rounds, regardless of the outcome. If Guan Yu's right arm is not injured, Huang Xu is definitely no match for Guan Yu.

In the battle of heaped-up mountains, Huang Xu and Chu Xu surrounded Guan Yu, and Guan Yu struggled to kill them. This is Guan Yu's desperate state, which has aroused the greatest fighting spirit. Guan Yu didn't have a red hare at this time. Judging from Guan Yu's record, his fighting capacity will soar in desperation. Even the martial arts of Lu Bu, Huang Xu and Chu Xu cannot be easily repelled. Lu Bu can beat Chu Xu in 20 rounds at most.

Another feature of Guan Yu is that the first three knives are very explosive. Yan Liang and Wen Chou were both killed by Guan Yu's first three knives for two main reasons: First, Guan Yu's Qinglong knife was very heavy, which was the heaviest weapon in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, weighing 82 Jin. It is difficult to swing it out again, and the acceleration caused by the heavy knife is so great that sometimes non-human beings can't resist it.

Second, Guan Yu has a red hare bonus, which is characterized by quickness. It turns out that Guan Yu is only heavy with weapons. Now, the red rabbit horse has brought Guan Yu speed, and speed+heavy weapons have become Guan Yu's two characteristics. General military commanders can hardly resist Guan Yu's first three knives.

What are the characteristics of Yan Liang?

Yan Liang has two characteristics: high martial arts and simple mind.

Ju Shou once said to Yuan Shao: Yan Liang is narrow-minded, brave and fearless, but he can't be immune. It shows that Yan Liang's character is strict and narrow-minded. Brave as he is, he can't shoulder the heavy responsibility alone. In fact, to put it bluntly, he just means foolhardy. This can also be seen from Yan Liang's murder. His martial arts are really high, but his mind is really simple.

Liu Bei told him to call Guan Yu, and he listened stupidly. He didn't think about it? What if Guan Yu doesn't want to come? In addition, Guan Yuming rushed over on a red hare. He has no intention of staying at all. As the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, Yan Liang, who has been through many battles, can't see it. What kind of stupid thing is this? In fact, Yan Liang's death is not wronged at all. He is a giant with simple mind and high martial arts.

If Guan Yu challenges Yan Liang, Guan Yu will slay Yan Liang in 20 rounds. In terms of martial arts, they are of the same level. At that time, Guan Yu was at his peak, and Guan Yu, like Zhang Fei at his peak, could single out Lu Bu for a hundred rounds without being defeated. Although Yan Liang is a martial artist, Guan Yu is his nemesis.

There is a saying that Guan Yu is the bane of Yan Liang and Wen Chou. Yan Liang is foolhardy and simple-minded. Fight Guan Yu one-on-one, and he will suffer a lot. Don't always think that one-on-one combat is a purely military confrontation. There are many places to think. Sometimes a little strategy can beat each other.

In terms of speed, Guan Yu rode a red rabbit horse, and speed is the biggest advantage. Yan Liang will be beheaded by Guan Yu no matter how high his martial arts are. In terms of strength, Guan Yu's weapons are much heavier than Yan Liang's, and Guan Yu's strength is far more than Yan Liang's. When Guan Yu moves with speed and strength, Yan Liang can't resist, and it is inevitable to be beheaded by Guan Yu.
