Who are the two saints who are both civil and military?

The sage who is both civil and military refers to Confucius and Guan Yu. Guan Yu, a military commander, was nicknamed bearded and long-worded. He was a famous soldier in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and was respected as a military commander by later generations. Since Guan Yu became sworn in Taoyuan, he has fought with Liu Bei in the world, leaving behind all kinds of heroic deeds, and is even more famous for his martial arts. Emperors of past dynasties also regarded Guan Yu as the embodiment of loyalty and became the material for educating loyal monarch and patriotic belief.

Wen Sheng refers to Confucius, whose name is Zhong Ni, because Confucius was honored by the rulers of later generations as Confucius' saint, the most holy teacher. He was a famous thinker and educator in ancient China. He was honored as a saint and the founder of Confucianism. Confucius constructed a complete ideological system of virtue: advocating the virtue of benevolence, righteousness and propriety at the individual level.

The Life of Characters in Guan Yu's Works

Guan Yu, formerly known as immortal, was later changed to Yun Chang. In his early years, he fled his hometown and came to Zhuo Jun in Youzhou. In the first year of Zhong Ping 184, the Yellow Scarf Uprising broke out, and Liu Bei organized volunteers in Zhuoxian.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei all joined in and fought the Yellow Scarf Army around Liu Bei. Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had a good relationship and slept together. Liu Bei appointed Guan Yu and Zhang Fei as another Sima to unify the headquarters. When attending the event with Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei stood beside Liu Bei to protect him.

In the first year of Xingping (194), Cao Cao was angry at Tao Qian because Cao Song was killed, so he sent troops to attack Xuzhou. Tao Qian asked Liu Bei for help, and Liu Bei and Guan Yu led thousands of people to come to the rescue. Cao Caobing retired, Tao Qianli Liu Bei was the secretariat of Yuzhou, and Guan Yu and Liu Bei stationed troops for Xiao Pei. So, under the repeated compromise of Tao Qian and others, Liu Bei led Xuzhou Pastoral.
