In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhao Yun recorded 38 one-on-one fights (including the battles of Zhao Yun and many others). In these 38 battles, Zhao Yun only took the initiative to retreat in two battles: the first time, when Zhao Yun and Adou of Changbanpo broke through, after Zhang He fought for more than a dozen times, Zhao Yun dared not continue to fight, so he took the initiative to retreat. The second time was during Zhuge Liang's first Northern Expedition. Zhao Yun met Jiang Wei at the gate of Tianshui. After several encounters, the two men were tied. Because Ma Zun and Liang Qian were killed by Wei Jun, Zhao Yun couldn't care for each other, so he had to break through and leave. These two wars are special, and Zhao Yun is not at a disadvantage in the one-on-one fight, so Zhao Yun cannot be judged to have failed.
Zhao Yun also had two defeats to lure the enemy: Zhao Yun's first defeat was the battle of Bowangpo. Zhaoyun first went out to fight Xia Houdun, and after several battles, he cheated him out. The second time, when Zhuge Liang was conquering barbarians, Zhao Yun was also cheating and luring the enemy in the battle with Mrs. Zhu Rong.
Besides, Zhao Yun also recorded two draws: the first time Zhao Yungang came out of the mountain, he met Wen Chou, and they played fifty or sixty times, regardless of the outcome. Finally, because Gongsun Zan's rear troops came, Wen Chou took the initiative to retreat. The second time, Zhao Yun played against Chu Xu, and the two played 30 times, regardless of the outcome. Finally, because Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were killed, Chu Xu failed to follow Cao Jun. Although the other side took the initiative to retreat first, Zhao Yun had no obvious upper hand in the one-on-one hit, so it was a draw.
In the remaining 32 one-on-one hits, Zhao Yun won a total victory, among which 23 people were killed (excluding the unnamed military commander who was killed by Zhao Yun in Changbanpo) and 2 people were captured alive. In terms of the number of enemy generals killed, Zhao Yun is the most romantic novel, the real ultimate killer, the terminator of Cao Jiang. Looking at Zhao Yun's record comprehensively, there is no real defeat in one-on-one combat, and he can naturally be called a victorious general.
