Since 2 1 year-old, he went to the battlefield with Sun Ce to pacify Jiangdong. After the assassination of Sun Ce, Sun Quan succeeded to the throne. Zhou Yu sent soldiers to the funeral, and he and Zhang Zhao, who have a long history, were in charge of everything as China guards. In the 13th year of Jian 'an, Zhou Yu led the army of Jiangdong Sun-style Group to unite with Liu Bei's army, and Battle of Red Cliffs trounced Cao Jun, which laid the foundation for a three-point world. In the 14th year of Jian 'an, General Bai Qing led the Southern County Governor. Jian 'an died of illness in Baqiu in fifteen years, at the age of thirty-six.
In the official history, Zhou Yu is beautiful in spirit and true in talent, while Fan Chengda is known as a hero in the world and a romantic beauty in Jiangzuo.

Brief introduction of Zhou Yu's life
In the second year of Han Xingping, Sun Ce retreated to Jiangdong, and Zhou Yu, under the guidance of his uncle Danyang, helped Sun Ce to cross the river and defeated Liu You, the secretariat of Yangzhou at that time, which played an important role in pacifying Jiangdong. Zhou Yu 2 1 year. Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were in the same year. Previously, when Sun Ce's father Sun Jian went out to ask Dong Zhuo to move to Shu County, Zhou Yu went out to live in his big house and gave it to Sun Ce. Their friendship is deep. So Sun Ce returned to Jiangdong and Zhou Yu went to help. Sun Ce was very happy. He told Zhou Yu that he could get your help and his career would be successful.
After Sun Ce defeated Liu You, there were tens of thousands of troops. He thought it was not a problem to pacify Wujun and Huiji County, so Zhou Yu and his uncle went back to guard Danyang. Soon, Yuan Shu sent his cousin to replace Zhou Yu's uncle as the Danyang satrap. Zhou Yu and his uncle came to Shouchun. Shouchun was the hometown of Yuan Shu, a great warlord who occupied Jianghuai at that time. Yuan Shu took a fancy to Zhou Yu and wanted to appoint Zhou Yu as Minister of Industry. Zhou Yu thought that Yuan Shu had done nothing, so he left Shouchun in Jian 'an for three years and returned to Sun Ce and Wujun. Sun Ce personally greeted him and awarded him the post of corps commander. At that time, Sun Ce himself was just a general, and the corps commander was privately established by Sun Ce, and his rank was lower than that of the general. Zhou Yu was 24 years old.
Zhou Yu, a young man, was appointed as a corps commander. When he arrived in Wudong, Wu soldiers called him Zhou Lang. As Zhou Yu is from Lujiang, he has a high prestige in Lujiang. Sun Ce sent him to Niuzhu, an important ferry in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River in Lujiang County, and later served as the magistrate of Chungu County. Soon, Sun Ce wanted to seize Jingzhou, so he appointed Zhou Yu as the guard of China and served as the prefect of Jiangxia. Zhou Yu and Sun Ce took Jingzhou together and conquered Anhui. At the end of the Han Dynasty, they married the daughters of two ministers. Both the public bridge and the public bridge are beautiful and look like a collapsed city. Sun Ce married Da Qiao and Zhou Yu married Xiao Qiao. Later, it occupied Xunyang and went to Jiangxia County, but it did not succeed. Back to the army, Zhang Yu and Luling counties were pacified, and Zhou Yu stayed in Luling to keep Baqiu.
From the second year of Xingping to the fifth year of Jian 'an, before Sun Ce was stabbed to death, Zhou Yu emerged at the beginning of the warlord scuffle at the end of Han Dynasty and became the first hero to help Sun Ce establish Jiangdong. There were six counties in Sun Ce at that time: Danyang, Wu, Huiji, Lujiang and Luling. Among them, Zhou Yu didn't participate in the recruitment of Wujun and Huiji County, but he also made his own contribution, because if he didn't help Sun Ce to cross the river and defeat Yangzhou secretariat Liu You, Wujun and Huiji County, Sun Ce wouldn't gain anything.
When Zhou Yu became the founding father of Sun Shi regime, Zhuge Liang was far from debut. When Kong Ming was fourteen years old, he left home and went to Zhang Yu as a satrap with his uncle. Occasionally go to Jingzhou with my uncle to take refuge in Liu Biao. 17 years old, his uncle died, and Kong Ming moved to Longzhong, 20 miles west of Xiangyang, and began to live in seclusion for ten years. So, when Zhou Yu helped Sun Ce to establish Jiangdong inheritance, Zhuge Liang was immersed in his studies. Yu and Liang can't be compared naturally at this time, and it's not good to be compared. Only after Zhuge Liang came out of the mountain in the winter of 207 AD can we really compare Zhuge Liang.
In the fifth year of Jian 'an, Sun Ce was assassinated and Sun Quan became a father and brother in Jiangdong. Zhou Yu went to Xiao Wei, Wu, via Baqiu, and then stayed in Wu to jointly manage the military and political affairs with Chang Zhao. At that time, Sun was nineteen years old. Zhou Yu made great contributions to establishing Sun's prestige and consolidating the six countries, and defeated Liu Biao's Jiangxia satrap Huang Zu's attack on Chai Sang. In the spring of the 13th year of Jian 'an, Sun Quan attacked Huang Zu again, and Zhou Yu served as the governor, leading the generals to assassinate Huang Zu, which won a great victory. After conquering Huang Zu, Zhou Yu was ordered to guard Poyang Lake.
On the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, Cao Cao invaded Jingzhou in the south, and Cao Cao, Liu and Liu fought for Jingzhou in an all-round way, resulting in the famous Battle of Red Cliffs in history. Battle of Red Cliffs, Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu each showed their magical powers, but Zhou Yu was the leading role and Kong Ming was only a supporting role, which could not be compared with Zhou Yu. Zhuge Liang undoubtedly played an important role in promoting Sun and Liu Lianhe to resist Cao, but this was only the diplomatic mediation before Battle of Red Cliffs, and in this diplomatic mediation, Lu Su of Soochow played a greater role. It was after Lu Su promoted Liu Bei-dong's alliance with Wu Kang-cao that he had the wisdom to stimulate Sun Quanlian's Liu Kang-cao. At the critical moment when Cao Cao's army marched eastward, Zhuge Liang personally persuaded Sun Quan Lian Cao, who was still hesitating, to show his wisdom and ability on the spot for the first time, which was fully affirmed by history. However, Zhuge Liang just came out of the mountain, young and not famous. In addition, Liu Bei's national strength was weak at that time and he needed the help of Soochow. Sun and Cao are the main resistance forces, while Liu Bei Group is in a subordinate position, and its role is limited. On the other hand, Zhou Yu is a key figure from decision-making to military action.
At that time, after Cao Cao got Jingzhou, he set out from Jiangling and traveled eastward along the river, hand in hand with land and water. Cao Cao immediately sent a letter to Sun Quan, saying, "Today, there are 800 people in the water army, leading troops to attack Wu." . This is a diplomatic language intended to persuade Sun Quan to submit as soon as possible. Sun distributed his books to county officials, which greatly shocked the ministers. Zhang Zhao and others all advocate the surrender of the meeting. Lu Su quietly told Sun Quan that anyone who advocated surrender was out of self-interest and should not obey. It was suggested that Sun Quan immediately recall Zhou Yu. After returning from Poyang Lake, Zhou Yu severely criticized the capitulators, insisted on fighting Cao, and analyzed the truth and falsehood of Cao against Sun Quan, prompting Sun Quan to finally decide to unite Liu and Cao. In other words, Lu Su, Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu promoted Sun Quan and Cao Cao respectively, and Zhou Yu played a key role in Sun Quan and Cao Cao. Only Zhou Yu made it clear that he could resist the capitulators headed by Zhang Zhao. Zhou Yu showed that at the critical moment, his political mind was incomparable to ordinary people.
In military action, Zhou Yu was not only the governor of Wu Jun, but also the commander-in-chief of the allied forces and Battle of Red Cliffs, and Zhuge Liang was just a participant. There are many reasons why Sun Liulian's army can win. No one can enjoy this honor, but Zhou Yu, as the coach, is undoubtedly the first hero who defeated Cao in Chibi. To say the second hero, it should be Huang Gai. Because fraud and fire attack were put forward by him, and he carried them out under the command of Zhou Yu. What role Zhuge Liang played in this battle has never been recorded in history. Zhuge Liang's biography only describes that he left Wujun and went to Liu Bei, and rejected Tsao Gong with Soochow. In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Kongming was very active and extremely clever in Battle of Red Cliffs. He borrowed the arrow of the strange grass boat, worshipped the sky of the seven-star altar and borrowed the east wind. He also has his share. When he attacked by fire, he seemed to be a key figure in defeating Cao, but these descriptions were only literary creation.
At that time, Zhou Yu shouldered the heavy responsibility of commander-in-chief and ruled the army strictly, which made Liu Bei awe. Xuande came to see Zhou Yu from Fankou. Knowing that Zhou Yu only led 30 thousand soldiers, he consulted Lu Su and others. Zhou Yu said that he accepted military orders and could not entrust an agent at will. If you want to see Lu Su, you can visit him another day. Liu Bei was ashamed and happy because he saw Zhou Yu commanding the army. After Cao Cao's defeat, he wrote to Sun Quan, saying, Battle of Red Cliffs can't be good. He burned his boat and retired alone. Zhou Yu got this name. . This is Cao Cao's view of saving face, which also reflects that Zhou Yu is the protagonist of Battle of Red Cliffs.
What kind of person is Zhou Yu?
The Romance of the Three Kingdoms portrays Zhou Yu as a typical narrow-minded and jealous person. When he found that Zhuge Liang was more intelligent than himself, he tried every means to kill him. He wants to get rid of Kong Ming as soon as possible. As a result, Zhuge Liang saw through one plan after another and he was defeated by Zhuge Liang's plan. He was angry and vomited blood again and again. When he was desperate, he let out a sigh of Yu and He Shengliang. A series of battles between Battle of Red Cliffs and Liang are vividly written in the novel, which is quite successful from the perspective of characterization, but from the perspective of historical authenticity, they are all pure literary creations of pseudo-novelists.
Zhou Yu in history, of course, is not Zhuge Liang sad, and there is no trace of Zhou Yu's anger. Judging from the historical background of Zhou Yu and Kong Ming at that time, as well as their political status and historical role before and after Battle of Red Cliffs, the real winner was Zhou Yu, not Kong Ming. Zhou Yu's talent and shrewdness, in fact, far exceeded the budding hair.
