What happened to Guan Yu's defeat in Maicheng? Why did he suffer such a fiasco?

Guan Yu is a well-known figure in the Three Kingdoms. People called him Guan Gong and awarded him the title of "warrior sage". After Liu Bei established Shu State, the generals Zhang, Hu, Wei Yan, Li Yan and other famous ministers were called Ma Zhuang. But Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang made an inexplicable decision and sent Guan Yu north to attack Cao Cao, but they did not send troops to support Guan Yu and save his life.

At that time, Guan Yu was no longer young, 58 years old. He sent troops and fought fiercely with Cao Cao's army in the Forbidden Coss and Huang Xu for nearly three months, flooded the seventh army, escaped from the Forbidden City and beheaded Pound, which had a great influence in China. Finally, Coss' army surrounded Xiangyang at the gates. At this time, the troops were very tired and unable to attack the city. Later, when they were at war with Huang Xu, they were defeated by Huang Xu. Jingzhou in the rear was also broken by Lv Meng. Under the attack of Wu Dong and Cao Jun, Maicheng was defeated. Finally, Guan Yu, his adopted son and soldiers were killed.

First of all, Guan Yu's loyalty is beyond doubt. Although Guan Yu was in a critical situation in the early stage, he was definitely not hopeless. At that time, two people could definitely come to save Guan Yu. One is Liu Feng, and the other is Mengda.

Let's start with Liu Feng. Liu Feng was Liu Bei's adopted son, and Liu Bei valued him very much at that time. If Liu Bei didn't give birth to a sinus later, it is not impossible to leave his position to Liu Feng. Theoretically, Guan Yu is Liu Feng's uncle and should be saved, but Liu Feng just can't leave the city. He gave the reason that he was afraid of losing Shang Yong, but it was far from the truth.

At this time, Meng Da's words are crucial. Mengda, an old subordinate of Liu Zhang, surrendered to Liu Bei's troops, but Liu Bei was not at ease with Mengda, fearing that Mengda would betray him, so he let Liu Feng 'an take charge of Mengda's head and monitor him at the same time. However, Liu Feng cannot directly control Mengda. On the contrary, Meng Da has been fighting for military power with Liu Feng.

Not only that, Meng Da is also a swing figure. As long as the form is slightly unfavorable, he may choose to surrender. Later, he betrayed Shu Han and Cao Wei successively. At that time, Shang Yong's strength was insufficient, and Mengda didn't want to save him. And Guan Yu made a big taboo on building a shop. At that time, Liu Bei wanted to set up a shop, so he asked Guan Yu. Guan Yu bluntly said that Liu Feng could not be the heir.

Guan Yu's words directly offended Liu Feng. Guan Yu shouldn't have said such a thing, but he did. And people who talk straight are actually very easy to offend people. At the same time, Guan Yu is too proud, and the value of Guan Yu's force is self-evident, but Guan Yu almost despised the whole world by himself.

When Sun Quan sent someone to marry Guan Yu, he looked down on Sun Quan, thought that Sun Quan's son was not worthy of his daughter, and insulted him, which was one of the reasons why Soochow later killed Guan Yu. Guan Yu's arrogance made the competent military commanders extremely dissatisfied with him and unwilling to have too much contact with him.

Then, when Guan Yu was in a desperate situation, no one came to help him. At the same time, he was killed after being taken down by Soochow Monroe. This kind of straightforward and arrogant personality, mixed together, becomes a fatal flaw, but anyone with this kind of personality in life may not have such a good interpersonal relationship. If Guan Yu could be tactful, he wouldn't have offended so many people invisibly. Even if he didn't escape the fate of being killed in the end, he may not have been separated.

But in the end, Liu Feng didn't end well. Liu Feng committed suicide after returning to Chengdu. After all, Guan Yu touched the whole world with his loyalty, and it is precisely because of his loyalty that a person's personality must have shortcomings. If he knew how to be tactful, maybe he wouldn't be so loyal, so maybe there wouldn't be Mr. Guan, who has been passed down through the ages.
