Chen Shou "Kingdoms" is indeed the five members of the general in a piece of the kingdoms, in the 36th volume, there is a special "closed Ma Huangzhao biography ."
What is the true history of these five generals? First of all, Guan Yu, the history of Guan Yu is indeed a rare tiger generals . Caocao's advisers Cheng Yufan has been called Guan Yu, Zhang Fei for "million Enemy", others call them "Tiger Minister", Zhou Yu praise their brothers have "McDonald of the Wei." Guan Yu's deeds are generally reliable, such as Chopping Yan Liang, to Cao Han, scraping bone and water flooding seven armies are the real thing in history , but as for the warm wine chop huaxiong, chop Wuchou, will hurdles hurdles, that is the play said. Huaxiong was Sun Ce's troops killed, Wuchou died in the chaos of the army. The idea of killing Wuchou first disappeared from the "kingdoms", but it was in the Song Dynasty. By the time of the Yuan Dynasty, there was the saying that Guan Yu killed Cai Yang. Cai Yang in the history books in the name of "Cai Yang", died in pursuit of Liu Bei's campaign, did not say that Guan Yu killed.
As for Zhang Fei, the evaluation of history books is "Majestic and Mighty", Dangyang bridge roar back Cao home, that is true , but also not scared to frighten the Xiahoujie, frightened 100,000 Cao army to run backwards. Caocao will not xiongcheng like that. There is also the takeover of the righteous release is true . The greatest Battle of his life, in the Langzhong Repulse Wei Zhang , but also do, but "kingdoms" record is very simple, a few dozens of words have been sent, in fact, this battle is quite crucial. At that time, Shuhan is not stable, panic, Liu Bei continuous killing many rumors of the people have not been able to stabilize the situation, when, Zhang troops to the Shu for the site and population. Zhang is a military capable, Zhuge Liang later feared him a bit, but he met Zhang Fei, in Langzhong area, was Zhang Fei played armors, only dozens of people, and lost the mount, walk fled back. After the war, Nishikawa's heart was basically stabilized.
As for what Zhang Fei battle taking Ma Chao, pure play said, these two people never hand over.
As for Zhao Yun, the most thrilling in the romance of the long Sakamoto, the lone Savior, in the millions of troops killed three in three, myth just. Zhao Yun did save fools, but no romance in the play so lively, exaggerated. in the historical material, the most can show Zhao Yun hero color, or Hanzhong First war . In order to save Jack Huang, he led the scout team and Cao Army, and then big camp door, so that Cao Army dare not light into, Liu Bei Kua he "fearless", this is practical, this period of history was quoted to "Capital Governance Tong Kam". History books on Zhao Yun evaluation is "fine zhi Zhuang Meng", Height, "kingdoms" cited "Zhao Yun biography" said he "eight feet length."
Ma Chao, the level than Zhao Yun High, "kingdoms" said he "multi-force", Cao also afraid of him, he had to kill Cao is very embarrassed, but what fight Xu Yu, let Caocao cut to abandon robes, are processed, believe not.
Veteran Jack Huang, "kingdoms" on his evaluation is "Sango", the greatest achievement is to seize the military Mountain, the rate of military killing Reggie Xiahouyuan. As to whether he had cut it himself, there was no evidence. Later Xiahouyuan's son Xiahouba to Shu, Liu Chan apologized to him, said: "Your father in the Dingjun died in the army, nor did we deliberately kill." "It can be seen that Xiahouyuan may have died in Jack Huang's army, not in the hands of Jack Huang."
There is also a war in Changsha, and Guan Yu than the knife, is not a thing.
Of course, to thank the folk story-teller, drama, and even "kingdoms", so that the fame of the five generals spread through the ages, literary drama for historical figures, more than the role of history books.
