Do one's best to die, this sentence

There were also many talents in the later period of Shu, not to mention Jiang Wan, Fei Yi, Dong Yun, Wei Yan and Wang Ping. After Zhuge Liang's death, there were Liao Hua (Liao Hua was actually a general), Yi Cheung, Zhang Ben, Jiang Wei, Huang Chong and Luo Xian (this is definitely a character). Zhuge Liang himself attached great importance to talents, but due to the contradiction between Jingzhou School and Yizhou School, some talents were hindered and could not do their best for the country. Zhuge Liang obeyed everything, which affected the enthusiasm of Shu officials and hindered the cultivation of new people. However, Zhuge Liang attaches importance to virtue, and the primary criterion for promoting talents is virtue, which is also an important reason why there are no rebels in Shu. Shu is located in a remote place, and its national strength is difficult to compare with that of the Central Plains. The longer the time, the greater the gap. "If the number of years is a complex number, it will cost two-thirds. How can you make enemies? " This is the reason for Zhuge's Northern Expedition. There are many reasons for the demise of Shu:

1: Fei Yi devoted himself to the development of national strength after he took over the administration of state affairs. Following Wuhou's ambition, Jiang Wei intends to explore the north. Because of different political views, Fei Yi could not ignore Jiang Wei, so he only gave him 20,000 people in each Northern Expedition. In this regard, later historians often lament Fei Yi's conservatism when analyzing the situation at this time.

He Chao: "If you want to break the dragon, you should punish Cao Shuang at first, and two or three will become one, so you won't worry about foreign affairs. Wen Wei was stationed in Hanchuan to be transferred to Guanzhong for rescue. Job lured Hu Qiang with thousands of people, cut off the western front, cut off the system and crashed the plane. The Founding Father (Zhuge Ke) held it lightly in the east, while Wen Wei sat in the west. If the holiday in heaven helps the afternoon, then he has been a traitor for too long. "

It is believed that Sima Yi's punishment of Cao Shuang was in the turbulent period of Wei's political situation, and because of Fei Yi's ruling system, he missed the opportunity of the Northern Expedition.

2. Huang Hao is in chaos. Before Dong Yun died, Huang Hao was spoiled by his later master. Dong Yun often criticized Huang Hao seriously. Huang Hao was afraid of Dong Yun and dared not do anything wrong. Before Dong Yun died, Huang Hao was just Huang Chengmen. After Dong Yun's death, Huang Hao manipulated the handle. In the sixth year, Zhong Hui defeated Shu, and this man put down the war situation, which led to the fall of Hanzhong.

3. Internal discord. Jiang Wei turned out to be, and Shu was repelled by him. In the Northern Expedition in 1998, the results were not obvious. Huang Hao wants Yan Yu to be a general, and Zhuge Liang's sons Zhuge Zhan and Dong Jue are all on the list. Jiang Wei was bellicose and useless, and was called to Yizhou to make a secretariat in order to seize his military power. Jiang Wei thought it was a plan to avoid disaster.

4. Zhuge Zhan has no plan. After the fall of Hanzhong, reinforcements Liao Hua and Jiang Wei retreated to Jiange. In front of the clock meeting, there is a Jiange Xiongguan, which is difficult to enter. After that, it passed through Huang Jincheng, Lecheng and Seoul, and the Hanshui River traced eastward, with thorns on its back. "We can't tackle the problem, there is no scattered valley in the wild, and the grain in Li Qian County is naturally tired." Wargo took advantage of Jiang Wei's being pinned down by the clock club to take a fair competition approach in order to turn the situation around. Wargo marched to the fork in the Jinggu road. Chengdu already knew the news and sent Zhuge Zhan to meet him. Huang Chong advised Zhuge Zhan to move forward quickly, occupy it, and don't let Wei Jun enter the flat land. Huang Chong persuaded him repeatedly, and even shed tears in pain, but Zhuge Zhan remained unmoved and stayed in Fucheng. The vanguard troops were defeated by Wargo, and Zhuge Zhan immediately retreated to Mianzhu, giving Wargo the dangerous pass. Zhuge Zhan died in Mianzhu, sighing, "Except for Huang Hao, he didn't make Jiang Wei, and he didn't keep Jiangyou. I have three sins. Why should I face it? "

5. Liu Chan is weak. At that time, Pixian ordered Changxu to refuse to defend the city, while in the west of Chengdu, besides Pixian, there were Kuang Yongbing from Wenshan, Longhe, Ran Yan, Baima and Wenshan. Jiang Wei's army advanced in Xia and Wu. Many Luo Xian in Jiangzhou. Hogo is guarding six counties in the south, and has already deployed to the north, ready to reinforce Chengdu. Luocheng, an important town, has not yet been captured, and Li Jiang is only seven miles away. There are also Liu Yin, Jiang Bin and Wang Hanjian around Hanzhong. In Chengdu at the moment, although Wei Jun is underground, judging from the situation, the main force of Shu and Han still exists, and none of the surrounding passes have been lost, and half of the country depends on it. The morale of the internal army can be fought in World War I, while the external reinforcements from Wu Dong can arrive tomorrow. The situation of Zhong Hui was in jeopardy, and Wargo was desperate. Alas, there are no talents in Chengdu. At that time, many ministers such as Wargo and Jia Chong disagreed, and only Zhong Hui agreed. Judging from the whole process of cutting Shu, Wei was a bit lucky, and destroying Shu was not a war crime.

During Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition, the national strength of Shu was at its peak. But years of fighting need money and food. It was only when Fei Yi, the prime minister, devoted himself to development that Shu's national strength was restored. By the time Fei Yi was assassinated, the radicals represented by Jiang Wei overwhelmed the conservatives. Years of war have exhausted national strength.

Chen Shou spoke highly of Zhuge Liang in The History of the Three Kingdoms. "Zhuge Liang is also a prime minister, caring for the people, showing courtesy, being arbitrary, authoritarian, sincere and fair; Although those who are loyal to the times will get revenge, those who violate the law and neglect their duties will be punished by their relatives, those who confess their feelings will be released, and those who are eloquent will be slaughtered. Good without reward, evil without fiber without degeneration; Ordinary things are refined, physics is the foundation, reputation and responsibility are real, hypocrisy is contemptuous; Finally, people who are afraid and love each other in the national territory, although the criminal law is harsh and there is no complaint, are trying to persuade them clearly. It can be said that he is a talented person who knows how to govern the country, and he is a horse of Xiao. But after years of mobilization, it still failed, and the cover strain will be slightly, which is not its strength! " Chen Shou believes that Zhuge Liang "will respond slightly, not his strengths." But the Northern Expedition was not denied because it was imperative. As for the demise of Shu, the situation is beyond Zhuge Liang's control.
