The weakest of the Five Tiger Generals, obviously the lowest position in the world, was blown into the God of War!
Speaking of the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", I believe that whether it is a senior reader or a person who knows a little, they will not be unfamiliar with the Five Tigers of the Shu Kingdom. Zhang Fei, who has experienced hundreds of battles and is incomparably brave: Guan Yu, who is excellent in martial arts and heavy in love and righteousness: Ma Chao, who was famous all over the world at a young age: Huang Zhong, who was brave and strategic, was not only used by Liu Bei at that time, but also became a household name now, and Zhao Yun, one of the five tigers, was slightly inferior compared to them. Neither the official position nor the record is at the same level as the other four. As the weakest of the Five Tiger Generals, he obviously had the lowest ability and the smallest position, but he was blown as the God of War, why was this? This is worth taking a closer look.
This person is Zhao Yun. Some people may be unconvinced by this, because Zhao Yun was the first person to follow Liu Bei besides Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Compared with Guan Yu's arrogance and Zhang Fei's recklessness, Huang Zhong is too old, and Ma Chao is a halfway monk. Only the role of Zhao Yun is perfect, and there are no shortcomings.
Although that being said, in terms of ability, Zhao Yun was indeed inferior to the other four generals. Zhao Yun did not seem to have any other legendary things except for riding the savior alone and killing seven in and seven out of Changshanpo. The only thing worth mentioning is his martial arts prowess. However, if you only have a martial art in the air, you can only be called a warrior and cannot be a general.
Since Zhao Yun had not made many military achievements, why was he still in the Five Tiger Generals of the Shu Kingdom?
First of all, this weakest is also relative, and secondly, there is no five tigers in history to rank this ranking, which is a change made by Luo Guanzhong in order to make the image of the three kingdoms more three-dimensional, so this is not difficult to understand.
Zhao Yun's biggest position was the general of Zhendong, and calling Zhao Yun the God of War actually had a little moisture in it.
Zhao Yunming has the lowest ability and the smallest position, so where does his title of God of War come from? Part of the reason can be attributed to artistic creation, because Luo Guanzhong did have a certain degree of fiction and exaggeration when writing a book, because if it is guaranteed to be completely consistent with history, it will lose the original interest and entertainment of the work, and the public will not accept it. This is a novel in itself, and there is no need to be as rigorous as a history book. So maybe the author exaggerated Zhao Yun's exploits, so that the title of God of War was planted on him.
