The first type: according to the three major wars that contributed to the tripartite confrontation, the basis is that these three wars directly promoted the formation of tripartite confrontation. There are three wars respectively.
1, the battle of Guandu.
In this battle, Cao Cao defeated the strong with the weak. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms says that Yuan Shao has hundreds of thousands of troops, claiming to be millions. In fact, the strength is only 1 10000. It is said that Cao Cao has an army of 250,000, but it is actually 40,000-50,000. Cao Cao belongs to the weaker side, and the two sides confront Guandu. After more than a year of confrontation, Cao Cao finally captured Yuan Shao's granary in Wu Chao, which
The influence of this war is that Cao Cao has since become the most powerful military force in the north of the Three Kingdoms, laying the foundation for unifying the north in the future and becoming one of the Three Kingdoms.
2. Battle of Red Cliffs
The outbreak of Battle of Red Cliffs was actually a part of Zhuge Liang's strategy of uniting Sun and Cao. The alliance between Sun and Liu was defeated in Chibi, and Soochow avoided the crisis of being annexed by Cao Cao. In this battle, Liu Bei got part of Jingxiang and became Liu Bei's base. Taking Yizhou by virtue of the base area made Liu Bei a pole in the Three Kingdoms.
3. The Battle of Yiling
In order to avenge Guan Yu and recapture Jingzhou, Liu Bei personally led troops to attack Wu Dong. As a result, he was defeated by Lu Xun in Yiling, and Liu Bei was very depressed. Soon he died of illness in Baidicheng. The impact of this war was that Shu was greatly weakened. Shu wants to explore the central plains in the north, and it is even more difficult to unify the whole country. Although Zhuge Liang ruled the middle of Shu, he lost Jingzhou and was greatly weakened. It is difficult for Shu's military strength to return to its peak. Of the three kingdoms since then, only Wei has the strength to complete reunification, while Shu and Wu exist only to maintain the situation of the three kingdoms for a long time.
The second type: the war based on the three major forces of the three countries has completed regional reunification. But every war is made up of many battles, not just a big war.
1, the battle of Cao Cao's unification of the north, Cao Cao completed the unification of the north through many battles, and since then Cao Cao has become the only force in the north and the first pole of the Three Kingdoms.
2. The Battle of Uniting Jiangdong. After Sun Ce led the army to Jiangdong, he completed the control of Jiangdong through several battles. From then on, Sun Ce became the hegemon in the south of the Yangtze River, confronting Cao Cao in the north and Liu Biao in Jingzhou in the south, which laid the foundation for Jiangdong to become one pole in the three countries.
3. Liu Bei captured the battle of Yizhou. Liu Bei was based in Jingzhou, and after many battles, he successively captured Yizhou and Hanzhong. From then on, there were only three princes in the world, Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Sun Quan, and Liu Bei's capture of Yizhou directly made him a strategy of three countries and one pole.
