Liu Xiu: With my big brother Liu? Nanyang Baishui village rebelled against Wang Mang, known as Fuling Army in history, Liu? Known as General Zhu Tian. Later, he was defeated by Zhen Fuliang and Qiu Ci under the command of Wang Mang in Xiao Chang 'an, and took refuge in Liu Xuan, the emperor who turned over a new leaf and the outlaw hero. After the Battle of Kunyang, Li Yi, a general under the new emperor, instigated the killing of Liu in order to eradicate dissidents. Xiu didn't make a fuss when she heard the news. Instead, he pleaded guilty and waited for the opportunity. Later, Zhu was captured alive, not killed, and the revenge of killing his brother was gone.
Liu Bei: After Battle of Red Cliffs, Liu Bei led his troops into Sichuan and ordered Guan Yu to stay in Jingzhou. Zhuge Liang captured Chengdu, and Sun Quan of Soochow claimed Jingzhou, so he took advantage of Guan Yu's northern expedition to Cao Wei to send troops to capture Jingzhou, and then captured Guan Yu and his son. Guan Yu and Liu Bei have been together for a long time, and they have a loyal feeling for him. Liu Bei was furious. In order to avenge the killing of his brother and the city, he led the soldiers of the whole country to attack Wu. As a result, Yiling was defeated and died in Baidicheng.
The same brotherhood, why did they make different choices?
The first is the victim. Liu? He is Liu Xiu's eldest brother, the first leader of Fuling Army, and the object of Liu Xiu's assistance. In other words, Liu? If you don't die, you will be an emperor in the future. And in the Fuling army's reputation, as Liu? In addition to martial arts, it is slightly inferior to Liu? Outside, ingenuity and knowledge are far better than Liu? Even if he is willing to be in Liu? As a general, his generals will certainly not stand up for him, and what about Liu? I'm afraid I won't give up the throne to my brother. What about Liu? Liu Xiu's death also saved a family tragedy and pushed Liu Xiu to the position of the first leader. Guan Yu is Liu Bei's sworn brother and poses no threat to Liu Bei's position. At the same time, he is also a general in Liu Bei's army. Guan Yu is skilled in martial arts and has both wisdom and courage. He is called "the enemy of ten thousand people" and is Liu Bei's right-hand man.
Second, the situation. The Fuling army merged with the outlaw hero, and the momentum was growing. The battle of Kunyang made Liu Xiu's fame reach its peak. And Liu Xiu and his men * * * are only 20,000 to 30,000 people. In the face of follwed and chaos in the world, if Liu Xiuruo retaliates, it will inevitably be the result of both sides, and it will inevitably be the death of people. When Liu Bei entered Sichuan, the situation had already appeared. It is only a matter of time before Wu attacks Wei, just a matter of time. Since entering surprisingly, Liu Bei has been practicing martial arts in the garrison. When sending troops to attack Wu, there was Zhuge Liang, the prime minister, and Ma Chao, the general, guarded the border. Cao Wei benefited from the fisherman, and Liu Bei was not in danger of being destroyed.
There is another point worth noting ―― age. When Baishui Village revolted, Liu Xiucai was in his twenties. Later, Liu Xiu was thirty-one when he proclaimed himself emperor in Hebei, forty-three when he finally unified the world and revived the great man, and died at the age of sixty-two. Liu Bei was in his thirties when he started to suppress the Yellow turban insurrectionary uprising, and he was 60 when he proclaimed himself emperor. The life span of the ancients was relatively short. People who are over 60 know very early that they are going to die. Liu Bei, who is 60 years old, certainly knows that there is nothing he can do, and the revival of the Han Dynasty can only be entrusted to the next generation. He must also know that his son is not the material, so he wants to fight again in his lifetime, and strive to win Wu Dong in one fell swoop, so as to draw a satisfactory full stop for himself. Sure enough. Shortly after Wu Bing's defeat, Liu Bei died for various reasons!
Because of Liu Xiu's forbearance, he won the glory in the future. He gave up revenge for various reasons and won the world. Due to various reasons, Liu Bei was defeated, and this battle lost the capital that the Shu army would dominate in the future: hundreds of thousands of troops, hundreds of generals and a strategic place-Jingzhou. This also directly led to the failure of Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition in the future. So a grudge and a decision become the key to success or failure.
