The real Cao Cao in history: Cao Cao was actually a martial arts master with special skills. The following text materials were collected and published by Xiaoyisou. Let’s take a quick look!
What kind of person Cao Cao is has been evaluated differently in the past. Yi Zhongtian said that Cao Cao was extremely smart and stupid; treacherous and cunning, frank and sincere; broad-minded, generous and suspicious; generous and narrow-minded. It can be said that this is everyone's style and villain's face; heroic style, children's feelings; strict nature, Bodhisattva heart. In short, he is a complex character. Luo Guanzhong even slandered Cao Cao as a treacherous minister, while Tai Wei Qiao Xuan, a contemporary of Cao Cao, said: The world is in chaos and there is no cure. The one who cannot be cured must be the king! He believed that Cao Cao was a talented person in life. Xu Shao, a critic in the Eastern Han Dynasty, said: An expert who rules the world is a traitor in troubled times. Throughout Cao Cao's life, I secretly believed that Cao Cao was not only a political, military and literary master, but also a martial arts master.
First of all, using special skills to break into the Forbidden City at night
According to the similar and different stories recorded in Sun Sheng's miscellany, Cao Cao once broke into Chang Zhong's bedroom without permission. Zhang Ren felt that he had not done well and asked people to arrest Cao Cao. Cao Cao danced his way out of the siege with a halberd and jumped off the city wall to escape. This Zhang Rang was one of the ten most popular attendants around the emperor. His uncle's blade died in his hands, and his guards were not taken for granted. Even if Cao Cao had higher means to assassinate him, he would definitely fail. In addition, Cao Cao's grandfather was an ordinary waiter, and Zhang Rang knew that Cao Cao was absolute, so he had to choose to kill Zhang Rang at night, but Cao Cao escaped the siege of the guards, which really shows Cao Cao's superb martial arts.
Second, chivalry, bravery and bravery
In order to eliminate Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao volunteered to assassinate him. After being discovered, he fled Beijing without stopping. Although the assassination failed, if Cao Cao did not have two sons, how could he dare to do such an earth-shattering thing?
Cao Cao fled to Gaocheng and lived in the home of his old friend Lu Boxe. Because he was too suspicious, he killed several people in Lu Boshe's house. There are three versions of this story: First, Shu Wei said that Cao Cao rode to Lu's house many times. Lu's son and his guests robbed Cao Cao's property, and Cao Cao killed several people with his sword. Second, Shi Yu said that Lu Boshe was not at home at the time, and his five sons and Cao Cao were regarded as guests and hosts. Cao Cao ran away because he was desperate and suspected that the Lu family wanted to harm him and killed eight people with his sword at night. Third, there are similarities and differences, saying that when Cao Cao heard the sound of sharpening a knife, he suspected that it was not good for him, so he took the initiative and killed the Lu family. Regardless of whether these three versions are right or wrong, there is no doubt about Cao Cao's killing. Killing several people shows that Cao Cao's martial arts is extraordinary. After the murder, Cao Cao did not forget to leave a sentence, "I would rather be a loser than a loser." Some murderers also had the heroic spirit to fight against tigers and Song Wu.
Kill a man within three or ten steps, and do not leave a line within a thousand miles
During the crusade against Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao was defeated and his soldiers were seriously injured. . He and Xia Hou went to Yangzhou to recruit people. The governor Chen Wen and the governor of Danyang Zhou Xin donated 4,000 troops. A rebellion broke out on the way. The rebels burned Cao Cao's camp at night, and Cao Cao struggled to escape. At that time, dozens of rebels were killed by him.
Cao Song was killed, Cao Cao massacred Xuzhou, Lu Bu attacked Cao Cao's base camp in Puyang, Cao Cao rose up to fight back against Lu Bu, but was defeated by Lu Bu's Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Zang Ba, Xu Wei, Hou Cheng, Hao Meng, and Cao Xing Wait for pursuit and blockade. Although Cao Cao had generals such as Cao Hong, Yu Ban, Yue Jin, and Dian Wei. , The enemy is strong and we are weak, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms says: Everyone will die, the first to fight. Later, Cao Cao defeated himself, but escaped from Lu Bu's encirclement. His escape was really beautiful: in the light of the fire, he grabbed Lu Bu and jumped forward. Fuck, cover your face with your hands, whip, lead the horse. Lu Bu came from behind, bumped his helmet, and asked, where is Cao Cao? Go to hell and point back, saying: The person riding the yellow horse in front is the same. When Lu Bu heard about it, he abandoned Cao Cao and rode forward to pursue him. Cao Cao turned his horse's head and looked at the east gate.
Fourth, a hundred steps can penetrate a Yang and a hundred hairs can reach Zhongbai
According to Shu Wei, Cao Cao could shoot birds with his hands and bow to birds and beasts. He shot 63 pheasants a day in Nampi. It seems this is true. Emperor Cao established his capital in Xuchang, accepted Feng's suggestion, and asked the emperor to hunt. Although the emperor was reluctant, he could not refuse. While hunting, Dickian even missed three arrows.
Cao Cao took the precious eagle bow and golden T-shaped arrow in the emperor's hand, tightened the string, and shot an arrow into the center of the deer's back. The princes would look at the golden T-arrow, thinking that it was shot by the emperor, and shout "long live" in unison. Although Cao Cao's purpose of besieging Xu Tian was not to show off his force, he did not have the capital to show off his force.
V. Eighteen kinds of martial arts are proficient in everything
On the eve of the Battle of Chibi, I was upright in May, so I ordered the wine to be served. When the wine was drunk, Cao Cao suddenly became poetic and picturesque, standing on the bow of the boat and arrogant: I punted the boat to defeat the Yellow Turban, captured Lu Bu, defeated Yuan Shu, captured Yuan Shao, penetrated into the northern part of the Great Wall, reached Liaodong, and traveled around the world: I have not achieved the ambition of a gentleman. Then I wrote a tanka, which is a song about wine. What is the geometry of life? For example, the morning dew in Japan is very bitter, the moon and stars are few, and the black magpies fly south. Go around the tree three times, which branch should you follow? Just when Cao Cao was in high spirits, Liu Fu, the ungrateful governor of Yangzhou, suddenly pointed out that Prime Minister Cao was unlucky to face the battle, and became furious and said: How dare you break my spirit! ! He raised his hand and stabbed Liu Fu. Drunk Cao Cao danced with a six-foot-long heavy weapon - slimming, and raised his slimming hand. This shows that Cao Cao is not only outstanding in literary talent, but also good at drunken boxing and slimming martial arts.
According to martial arts novels, martial arts masters are generally people with special skills, who are courageous and brave, can dance with swords, and can travel around the world. However, Cao Ah Man has all these conditions.
