In the era of the Three Kingdoms (220 to 280), in just sixty years, wars raged, and political struggles were complicated and twists and turns.

Against this background, many heroes emerged on the historical stage, and their respective talents and deeds are worthy of careful study.

Cao Cao is the founder of Wei State. He is a rare military and political all-rounder.

He was born in Peiguoqiao County during the war years, and he showed outstanding leadership skills at a young age.

Cao Cao made good use of talents and was not limited to family background. He gathered talents from all walks of life in his camp.

For example, Guo Jia is an extremely effective counselor under his command.

Furthermore, Cao Cao continued to expand his sphere of influence in war after war.

In the Battle of Guandu, he defeated Yuan Shao with a small victory and laid the foundation for the unification of the north.

This battle example fully reflects his outstanding ability in military command.

Cao Cao is a person who is good at summing up experience. After the war, he will always conduct a detailed analysis of the entire strategic layout and tactical implementation, which allows his military talents to continue to improve.

Cao Cao was also a man of great political foresight.

During the period when he was managing his territory, he vigorously implemented the policy of farming, ensuring that the people had food to eat and the army had fodder, thus stabilizing social order to a certain extent.

This action significantly enhanced his popularity while laying a solid economic foundation for his rule.

Liu Bei, the founder of Shu Han, was famous for his benevolence.

Liu Bei has always regarded the revival of the Han Dynasty as his own mission. Starting from Zhuozhou, he moved to many places.

He is surrounded by loyal brothers such as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

In this process, he paid great attention to his reputation and tried his best to protect the people wherever he went.

In the Battle of Dangyang, although Liu Bei was defeated, he insisted on escorting many people to retreat together. This move was crucial to establishing his image as a benevolent king.

In order to seek talents, Liu Bei visited the thatched cottage and asked Zhuge Liang to help him.

Zhuge Liang's ingenuity played a key role in the subsequent development of the Shu Han Dynasty.

Liu Bei established the Shu Han regime in Chengdu, and he also adopted a soft policy towards local governance.

He showed respect to the local wealthy families and worked hard to coordinate the rights and interests of all parties, thus allowing Shu Han to maintain its own strength for a period of time and form a balanced confrontation with Wei and Wu.

As the founder of Soochow, Sun Quan had a strong desire to rule.

After Sun Ce passed away, the important responsibility of Soochow fell on Sun Quan's shoulders. Despite his young age, he has shown extraordinary stability and sophistication.

The center of his rule was in the Jiangdong area, with Jianye as his capital.

Sun Quan was good at appointing talented people, and Zhou Yu was a general he relied on very much.

Before the Battle of Chibi broke out, the court was divided into two factions: those who supported the war and those who advocated peace. Sun Quan resolutely adopted Zhou Yu's main battle strategy. It was this decision that enabled the victory of the Battle of Chibi, thus laying the foundation for the stability of Soochow.

Sun Quan also valued communication with the outside world, so he sent envoys to inspect the Nanhai Islands to see if trade could be carried out.

Historical records record that Soochow ships sailed to many Southeast Asian islands, which promoted regional exchanges at that time.

During Sun Quan's reign, he focused on expanding the naval force. Soochow's navy was among the top among the Three Kingdoms at that time.

Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, reached extremely high levels in the fields of politics, military affairs, and inventions.

After he came out of the mountain, he planned a strategy for Liu Bei to divide the world into three parts.

He comes from Langya County and has great ambitions since he was young.

In military terms, the six expeditions out of Qishan demonstrated his strategic vision.

Although he ultimately failed to realize his wish to revive the Han Dynasty, his military talents were still outstanding and should not be ignored.

He grasped the battle situation very accurately, arranging troops and arranging food and fodder, everything was done down to the smallest detail.

During the Shu Han period, Zhuge Liang was committed to implementing the rule of law in the political field, suppressing the power of powerful families, and strengthening centralization of power.

The series of policies he formulated made the Shu Han, although weak, well-organized in governance.

He also invented the wooden cow and flowing horse and the Zhuge Liannu. These inventions greatly facilitated the transportation of food. Zhuge Liannu also showed amazing destructive power on the battlefield.

Sima Yi was an outstanding military strategist and politician in the Wei State. He was one of the founders of the Jin Dynasty.

He was inside the Cao Wei regime and faced a complex political situation.

In the contest with Zhuge Liang, although Sima Yi was passive most of the time, he demonstrated excellent military deployment and response skills.

During Zhuge Liang's Fifth Northern Expedition, Sima Yi chose not to fight, which ultimately led to Zhuge Liang's death in Wuzhangyuan.

After Cao Cao's death, the Cao Wei regime gradually fell into the hands of Sima Yi. He has been the monarch of the Cao family for many generations, and in the power struggle, he has continued to accumulate power for his own family.

He claimed to be loyal to Cao Wei externally, but privately, he cleverly used various strategies to continuously expand his family's power. All this stems from his outstanding political wisdom.

Guan Yu was a fierce general of the Shu Han Dynasty, known for his loyalty and bravery.

He came from Xieliang, Hedong County. When Liu Bei raised troops in Zhuo County, Guan Yu followed him.

When Guan Yu was guarding Jingzhou, he flooded seven armies and shocked China.

His loyalty to Liu Bei was unwavering, and even though Cao Cao offered him a prominent official position and generous benefits, he still wanted to return to Liu Bei's command.

Guan Yu's character of loyalty and bravery was highly praised by later generations, and he was revered as "Emperor Guan" among the people.

Zhang Fei is also a fierce general of the Shu Han Dynasty.

He was brave and fearless. In the battle of Changbanpo, with only more than 20 cavalry, he successfully cut off the rear. The roar that shook the sky made Cao's army retreat in fear.

Like Guan Yu, he was loyal to Liu Bei.

He stood firm in Langzhong and assisted Liu Bei in participating in many key battles. Together with Guan Yu, he became the pillar of Shu Han.

During the Three Kingdoms period, many heroes had distinctive personalities, and their magnificent deeds are still widely sung today.
