Among all Cao Cao's subordinates, Dian Wei was at least the most loyal to Cao Cao, if not Cao Cao's most trusted and capable general. However, because Cao Cao insulted Zhang Xiu's aunt, Dian Wei was killed.
So, is the responsibility for Dian Wei's death really on Cao Cao?
Hi! Hello everyone! I'm a bug in the world, follow me and continue to update more reviews about literary stories!
After reading the novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", many people feel that Cao Cao killed his right-hand man Dian Wei on the battlefield because of his own selfishness. Although Cao Cao cried bitterly afterwards, everyone knew that he was against his will.
As a result, almost everyone felt that Cao Cao killed Dian Wei.
It's just that when the insect world calmed down and read the original book carefully, there was a sudden feeling that Dian Wei's death really can't be blamed on Cao Cao, if you want to blame it, you can only blame Dian Wei himself.
Because, you only have to carefully read what is written in the book about the death of Dian Wei to know what the reason is.
It is said that because Zhang Xiu wanted to crusade against Cao Cao, Cao Cao personally led a large army to fight. However, Zhang Xiu was a paper tiger, and when Cao Cao came to him, he took the initiative to surrender.
But what Zhang Xiu didn't expect was that Cao Cao was actually mixed with his aunt, so Zhang Xiu couldn't swallow this breath, and at Jia Xu's suggestion, he planned to start with Dian Wei.
Why start with Dian Wei?
It is because Dian Wei is deeply trusted by Cao Cao, when Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu's aunt are messing around, he is to let Dian Wei wait outside the big tent, "unless called, not allowed to enter".
In other words, Dian Wei's main duty at this time is to protect Cao Cao's safety, in other words, Dian Wei at this time is Cao Cao's most loyal bodyguard.
However, Cao Cao trusted Dian Wei so much, but Dian Wei was not self-respecting.
Everyone knows that for bodyguards, the most taboo is drinking. Although on the surface at this time, Zhang Xiu is obedient to Cao Cao, but for Dian Wei, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, he should know his responsibilities, and before Cao Cao is absolutely safe, he should not drink a drop of alcohol.
However, in the face of Zhang Xiu's invitation, Dian Wei did not hesitate at all, and drank directly with Zhang Xiu, and finally got drunk.
Here's what the book says:
The embroidery is very happy, prepare bows and arrows and armor soldiers in advance, and announce the villages. When the deadline came, Jia Xu greeted Dian Wei and invited him to the village and treated the wine diligently. When he returned drunk in the evening, Hu Cheer was mixed in the crowd and went straight to Dazhai.
Because Dian Wei was drunk, he was drunk. So much so that when Zhang Xiu attacked Cao Cao, as the general who protected Cao Cao, Dian Wei had no power to fight back. Although in the midst of the panic, Dian Wei also showed his loyalty, but loyalty could not kill the enemy after all, but caused him to be killed by the enemy.
Although it is said that the fuse of this incident is because of Cao Cao, in the final analysis, Dian Wei himself should be blamed. If Dian Wei was really loyal to his duties, if Dian Wei didn't drink a drop of alcohol before returning to Xudu, then no matter what strategy Zhang Xiu adopted, he would not be able to hurt Cao Cao, let alone kill Dian Wei.
Therefore, judging from the process and the final result, Dian Wei's death was completely his own fault, and he completely brought about his own death. The responsibility for Dian Wei's death really can't be blamed on Cao Cao.
