Compare General Tien to Red Thread Maiden

     I’m going to write about some similarities and differences between General Tien and Red Thread Maiden. First of all, both are respectful. Although General Tien intended to invade General Hsueh Sung’s area, I can realize he is actually a respectful person because if he were not respectful, he would be mad at the incident that Red Thread Maiden stole his golden box and would try to get his injured honor back. But he didn’t attack General Hsueh but recognized how terrific General Hsueh’s power was after he got a letter from General Hsueh. Likewise, Red Thread Maiden didn’t kill any people. She seems to always respect her lord and she is respectful of life. Moreover, both are active. General Tien tried to attack General Hsueh because of uncomfortable weather, which is not a vital problem. Meanwhile, Red Thread Maiden stood for a spy in spite of the fact it was none of her business.
     Although they share some similarities, they have also differences. One of them is a courage. While General Tien was coward, Red Thread Maiden is brave. In other words, while the former needed three thousand to change unstable situation, the latter needed only herself. Secondly, although General Tien seems to be stupid, Red Thread Maiden seems to be smart. Red Thread Maiden had known how she could change the situation although even General Hsueh hadn’t. Meanwhile, General Tien couldn’t do anything but surrendering without fighting after the horrible incident. It may show us how horrible it was for him, but I can’t say he is smart.
