In the chaotic world, Imakawa Yoshimoto and Yuan Shao, who were also in the period of dynastic change, occupied the heavens and places, and they knew that as long as they occupied the mountains and rivers with more than 10,000 troops, they could compete with the crowd of heroes, have the ambition of the birds, and act like a fierce tiger, but in this history, there were only two more deer chasers, and their final outcome was to be destroyed and become a stepping stone for others to go to the peak of power.

Some people say that Imagawa Yoshimoto is the Japanese version of Yuan Shao, but their experiences are similar, but in terms of details, the talent strategy Imakawa Yoshimoto is better!
Both Imagawa Yoshimoto and Yuan Shao came from a famous family, and they raised their arms and called everyone to respond. From the perspective of his family background, Imagawa Yoshimoto was a member of the Ashikaga shogunate and was one of the famous people who inherited the status of shogun. At the same time, the Imakawa clan has already served as the guardian daimyō of the Yuanjiang and Junhe rivers for several generations, and its roots are deep and the capital is strong, and it really has the right to win the crown. Yuan Shao was born in a family of eunuchs, and his ancestors, the Fourth And Third Duke, were the sons of the family with a very high reputation at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Since the two had occupied such a favorable situation, in the era of strife at that time, it was necessary to compete with various heroes and heroines, including many of their own brothers and sisters. With the help of Shou Guini and Taiyuan Yukisai, Imagawa Yoshimoto won the Battle of Iwato and began his life as a tyrant, first forming an alliance with the Takeda clan of Kai and the hojo clan to the east, and at the same time seizing control of Mikawa in the hands of the Owari Oda clan, thus becoming the daimyō of the Tokai. In this way, the Imakawa family under the leadership of Imakawa Yoshimoto reached its peak and became one of the most powerful daimyōs in Japan during the Sengoku period, but the world is unpredictable, history always likes to create accidents, Imakawa Yoshimoto lost in the barrel narrow room under the condition of holding heavy troops to Oda Nobunaga, who had less than one-tenth of his strength, and he himself was killed in this battle, and since then, the death of the "first bow to the Tokaido" has brought a near-devastating blow to the Imagawa clan.

And Yuan Shao took advantage of the reputation of the Yuan family and the deeds of the eunuchs to gather many heroes in the world, Hao Jie, who was supported by various princes as allies, and its momentum forced Dong Zhuo to move the capital to Chang'an, and then Yuan Shao used his soldiers and horses to expand his sphere of influence and occupied the four major states of Ji, You, and Qing, so that Yuan Shao became one of the biggest warlords in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. After the First World War of Guandu, Yu Guandu was devastated, and the people rebelled and separated, and finally ended up depressed.

Imagawa Yoshimoto and Yuan Shao were both powerful princes for a while, and in the end they were also defeated by forces weaker than themselves, so it can be seen that fate will not be biased towards the innate superiority of conditions and cold after the heavens, and whoever dies of the deer still has to rely on hard power.
If you only talk about the ending of the two, Imakawa Yoshimoto and Yuan Shao are not much different, but judging a historical figure is not only from merit to right and wrong, but also to success or failure as a hero, Yuan Shao is brave and unscrupulous, has a heart of blood, and is not as talented as Imagawa Yoshimoto in terms of strategy. In the Battle of the Barrel Narrow Room, Imagawa Yoshimoto did not have any fault in command, and the main reason for his defeat was that Oda Nobunaga was more adept at surprise, a surprise attack, a desperate bet to the Imakawa army was caught off guard, making a big mess, helpless Imakawa Yoshimoto hated Jiuquan.
Compared with the defeat of Imakawa Yoshimoto, Yuan Shao's defeat of Guandu was completely self-inflicted, first because of Xiao'er's illness and did not listen to advice, and chose to watch the fire from the other side when Cao Cao and Liu Bei fought fiercely, missing the opportunity to attack Cao Cao. The second is that Yuan Shao's knowledge is unknown, he does not listen to the advice of Frustrated Zhi and Xu You, and insists on going his own way, so that he loses everything. In terms of employment, Imagawa Yoshimoto has Shou Guini in charge of internal affairs and Taiyuan Xuezhai outside to advise, and his generals abound. And Yuan Shaowu had Yan Liangwen ugly Zhang Guo frustrated, Wen Youtian Feng Xuyou, although there were countless able ministers under his command, but most of them were snubbed, which made people's hearts lose a lot, and his defeat was not accidental.
In terms of art, Imagawa Yoshimoto has a high degree of achievement in both piano and chess painting and tea ceremony poetry, exemplified by the continuous poems with Renhe Temple Zun Hai and Taiyuan Xuezhai, and he is also a master of keju, and Yuan Shao can only appreciate these eyes. In terms of domestic politics, Imagawa Yoshimoto also had extraordinary achievements, he integrated and optimized the policies of his fathers, strengthened business administration, and established a transportation system, which enabled the rapid development of commerce in Junyuan and Qingyuan, and the improvement of people's strength also brought about the strengthening of the military strength in the hands of Imagawa Yoshimoto. Moreover, compared with Yuan Shao's practice of excluding the imperial family in pursuit of power freedom, Imagawa Yoshimoto was more enthusiastic about Kyoto culture, and regarded the spread of Kyoto culture to the Kanto region as a mission, which was a means of winning the hearts and minds of the people in the chaotic world at that time.
Imakawa Yoshimoto left to future generations not only the military victory in the Battle of Kodousaka and the Battle of the Barrel Panjian, but also left a political and legal system such as the "Imakawa Kana Catalog" politically, which was also imitated by later generations, and its influence cannot be described as deep, while Yuan Shao was much more bleak, in addition to being able to record the history of the annals of history, I am afraid that only his own experience is left to warn future generations.
