Battle of Red Cliffs's comments on Zhou Yu?

In Battle of Red Cliffs's pre-war period, Zhou Yu was the one who really helped Sun Quan to resist Cao.

Zhuge Liang was sent to Chaisang, which angered Sun Quan's competitive heart. Lu Su analyzed the truth of falling and dying with a pragmatic attitude. But in the end, what prompted Sun Quan to make up his mind was Zhou Yu's remarks. This remark is really eloquent and generous, and Zhou Yu's talent and strategy can be seen from it:

"Although Cao Cao is known as a Han Xiang, he is actually a Han thief. With SHEN WOO's outstanding talent and the strength of his father and brother, the general has set up a separatist regime in Jiangdong, which is thousands of miles away. The soldiers are full of talents and heroes are happy. It is still time to spread all over the world and get rid of the evils for the Han family. What's the evil that Cao Cao can meet when he dies? Please raise it for the general: now that the northern land has been settled, Cao Cao has no internal worries, can he fight for the territory for a long time, and can he win or lose with our school? Now that there is no peace in the north, Jia Ma Chao and Han Sui are still in Kansai, which is a future trouble for Cao Cao. And give up the pommel horse, fight the boat, and compete with Wu Yue, which is not the director of China. In this cold weather, there is no grass on the horse, which drives China scholars to travel far between rivers and lakes. If they are not used to water and soil, they will get sick. These four people are also suffering from fighting, but Cao Cao is taking risks. General, fuck birds, it should be today. Yu invited 3, elite soldiers to live in Xiakou, and he was guaranteed to be broken by the general. "

● Zhou Yuxian sent troops to "clear his name" to fight against Cao Cao

In this statement, Zhou Yu positioned Cao Cao as a "thief of the Han Dynasty" and proposed "removing the residue and filth for the Han family". Make the anti-Cao a well-known military action, so as to be obedient and rebellious.

In this regard, Xiang Meng 'an, a scholar in the Republic of China, once commented that the elegance of Zhou Yu is also the biggest difference between Zhou Yu and Lu Su, that is, "never say anything against the Han people". I quite agree with this evaluation. Looking at the History of the Three Kingdoms, Zhou Yu always takes "destroying Cao Qing and Han Zuo" as the core idea every time he offers suggestions and strategies in front of Sun Quan. What Lu Su planned was always based on the actual interests of Sun Quan Group, and the "Emperor" was always on his lips. This not only reflects the differences between Zhou Yu and Lu Su in terms of equipment and sentiment, but also shows that Zhou Yu has always skillfully grasped the degree between the interests of Han Dynasty and the interests of Jiangdong. Therefore, Zhou Yu's "Chibi Pre-war Talks" first achieved the moral guarantee for Dongwu to send troops.

● Zhou Yu analyzed the reasons why Cao Cao was doomed to defeat and Dongwu was victorious

At that time, Cao Jun had an absolute advantage and seemed to be an invincible enemy to the Wu people. Only Zhou Yu figured out all the people, was expert and arbitrary, and saw what Cao Jun could defeat. It is said in the ballad of Romance of the Three Kingdoms that Zhuge Liang "can pinch and calculate", but in fact, Zhou Yu's foresight is really amazing. The development of the war was really like Zhou Yu's proposal before the war: Cao Jun didn't learn water warfare, so he "retired from Jiangbei" at the first encounter, and the consequences were as Zhou Yu expected. Similarly, as Zhou Yu promised in advance, Zhou Yu really defeated Cao Cao with less than 3 thousand soldiers as Sun Quan.

● The infectious speech inspired Sun Quan's determination

In Zhou Yu's short life, there were only two letters and three paragraphs of discussion, namely, "preparing for Wu Shu as a disciple", "dying", "discussing without proton", "discussing before Chibi War" and "discussing from Shu". These two discussions are not only a summary of Zhou Yu's life strategy, but also reflect Zhou Yu's language art. Zhou Yu is proficient in music, which makes his words full of appeal and motivation, and also reflects the strategic style of being brave and fearless. With clever planning and touching speech, Zhou Yu persuaded Sun Quan to follow his advice many times in his life.

not only that, Zhou Yu's confidence in resisting Cao's victory is even more lamentable. Mr. Li Dongfang, an overseas Chinese historian, said in his book The Three Kingdoms: "Good Zhou Yu! How magnificent the word "fuck yourself and die" is! Zhou Yu, you really deserve to be Zhou Yu! At that time, was there another person in Jiangdong and China who dared to say that Cao Cao had come to die? "
