Third place: Chun Yuqiong, on an equal footing with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.
His most famous World War I was successfully attacked by Cao Cao and lost his lair, which led to Yuan Shao's defeat in Guandu. In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Chunyu Qiong's reputation can be compared with that of the fictional character General Pan Feng beheaded by Hua Xiong.
However, Chunyu Qiong was an awesome figure in history. In A.D. 188, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty set up "Eight Commanders of Xiyuan" in order to seize the military power. The most famous of them were Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Chunyu Qiong, which meant that the three were equal.
Later, Chunyu Qiong followed Yuan Shao, although his reputation was not as loud as that of war generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou, but his level was much higher than that of Yan Liang. For example, when Yuan Shao decided whether to "accept" Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty, that is, when studying and deciding on strategic issues, Chunyu Qiong was able to speak out and opposed it with Guo Tu!
So judging from this historical data, if Yan Liang and Wen Chou are generals, Chunyu Qiong is equivalent to marshal level. So in the battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao gave Chunyu Qiong his lifeline, Wu Chao. Unfortunately, due to Yuan Shao's ability, Xu You surrendered to Cao Cao, which made Cao Cao's raid on the Wu Dynasty successful, and Chun Yu Qiong was cut off, so he was ruined and brought to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao bears a grudge and asks, Do you know why you got mixed up like this? Chunyu Qiong said: The outcome is in the sky. Why do you ask me? Cao Cao wanted to stay in Chunyu Qiong, but Xu You told him: You'd better kill him. When he looks in the mirror, he will see his face without a nose. Doesn't he hate you to death?
Cao Cao killed Chunyu Qiong. Throughout the life of Chunyu Qiong, the starting point is very high. Unfortunately, he followed the wrong boss, was disfigured by his classmates, and was killed because of the serious consequences of disfigurement, becoming a historical clown.
Second place: Li Yan, Commander-in-Chief of Han Shu Group.
Many people have a serious misunderstanding about Li Yan, thinking that he is a civilian. But in fact, when Liu Bei Baidicheng asked Zhuge Liang and Li Yan for help, he made it very clear that Li Yan's "unification of internal and external military affairs" is equivalent to today's "commander in chief" role.
Liu Bei attached great importance to Li Yan and asked Li Yan to take his place, defend Yongan and fight against Wu Dong. Because for Shu Han, after the defeat of Yiling, the most important thing is to guard against Wu Dong, because Liu Bei died and didn't return to Chengdu, not because he lost face in the defeat, but because he guarded the border as an emperor. Naturally, the resources of Shu Han are inclined to this area.
However, the commander-in-chief of Shu and Han, who was so valued, became more and more incompetent after the "reconciliation between Wu and Shu", so that he changed his name to Li Ping after returning to Chengdu. Maybe I want to change my name, maybe I am dissatisfied. But in a word, after Li Yan changed her name to Li Ping, she did everything she could, which led to bad luck.
Zhuge Liang was in charge of grain and grass during the Northern Expedition, but lied to Zhuge Liang that there was not enough grain and grass, which made Zhuge Liang return to the army. When Zhuge Liang saw this, he pretended to be stupid and asked, "There is enough food and grass. Why did you come back? "
You can imagine how angry Zhuge Liang should be. If it weren't for Li Yan's trust in an orphan, he would be beheaded and finally demoted to a civilian. Later, after learning of Zhuge Liang's death, Li Yan knew that no one could re-enable himself and eventually died of depression.
Li Yan used a joke that "renaming is a disaster", because before renaming, he was a senior official anyway and died of depression because of renaming. Unfortunately, it is also very chic.
First place: Wei Yan, general of the Western Expedition in Shu and Han Dynasties.
I don't think anyone will object to putting Wei Yan first. Looking around the Three Kingdoms, I really can't find such an unlucky general as Wei Yan. In fact, in Liu Bei's eyes, Wei Yan is the second Guan Yu! The most important Jingzhou is for Guan Yu. In the second city of Hanzhong, Zhang Fei, the third master, was left behind, and Wei Yan was appointed to sit in the town.
This kind of honor and trust is unique in Shu Han. Maybe it's how high he was lifted and how hard he fell. After Liu Bei's death, due to Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition, Wei Yan became a "brave warrior" in the Shu-Han army. The so-called handsome is the soul of the army and will be the courage of the army.
Unfortunately, Wei Yan was too courageous to leave the Meridian Valley, but Zhuge Liang, the soul of the army, stopped him. But in any case, although Wei Yan was not convinced, he was obedient and respectful to Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang actually appreciated Wei Yan very much, and even before he died, he specially emphasized: Yang Yi, go back with the troops and leave Wei Yan alone.
But Yang Yi forced Wei Yan in disguise. As a result, Wei Yan was killed and three families were killed. He also stepped on Wei Yan's head with his foot and said, "I think you are still arrogant!" " Even more humbled, although Liu Chan seemed to understand Wei Yan's injustice, he just pulled Yang Yi aside, but did not avenge Wei Yan.
Wei Yan is still described as "rebellion" in history. Romance of the Three Kingdoms is an excuse. In order to make Wei Yan hate people, he also invented it: Wei Yan kicked over the seven-star lamp and made Zhuge Liang unable to extend his life. ...
Wei Yan was originally a favorite general of Liu Bei, but he was loyal to Shu Han despite his personality problems. Even though he didn't leave Shu Han when he fled for his life, he was said to be a traitor! This unlucky guy is just the first person in the Three Kingdoms.
