Chapter 519: Fateful Duel
Wu Di didn't know what Wu Di had done, she soon found that Liao Yaoqing seemed to disappear from sight, which made her feel very happy, and naturally agreed to Wu Di's request to cook and eat herself.
Wu Di didn't go to the bottom of it, she just had to live a quieter and more leisurely life like this.
Wu Di, who was harassed by others before, became a housemaid, but completed the fifth "Three Kingdoms" at an unbelievable speed, written from the perspective of two people, one is Zhuge Liang, and the other is Sima Yi, these two are undoubtedly the souls of Shu and Wei.
And now Wu Di's sixth "Three Kingdoms", which is the work that ends this epic masterpiece, is naturally written from multiple perspectives, mainly depicting Jiang Wei and Deng Ai, two outstanding generals of Shu and Wei. And the essential reason why the Wei State, which was eventually usurped by the Sima clan, was able to unify the Three Kingdoms was actually the strength of the productive forces.
In the face of such a general trend of comprehensive national strength, any conspiracy and trickery are floating clouds, as long as you can operate, you can just pass through it......
In fact, in Wu Di's view, the story of the Three Kingdoms after the Battle of Chibi is no longer as wonderful as when the heroes were divided in the past, as the gap in comprehensive national strength is getting bigger and bigger, the role of generals and strategists is not as big as the huge source of soldiers, even if it is consumed, it can consume you to death!
Why is Zhuge Liang always in a hurry for the Northern Expedition? It is because he also knows that with the passage of time, the Wei State, which occupies the Central Plains, the most developed place in terms of productivity during the Three Kingdoms, will have a greater and greater gap in strength, not to mention the revival of the Han dynasty and the unification of China.
And Zhuge Liang is a person who pays attention to the use of soldiers, and he cannot say that this method of using troops is not good, in fact, this is the real bright art of war. Unlike a ghost talent like Guo Jia, who gambles too much, not very much, and loses all the games, there are so many people in Wu Di's world who like Guo Jia, precisely because he won all the bets. And died young, such a tragedy is lamentable.
It's a pity that this way of using troops is not suitable for Shu, which is not strong in national strength, and Zhuge Liang also met his lifelong opponent - Sima Yi, this scheming opponent is actually as stable as Zhuge Liang, so it is a pure comparison of national strength, so as time goes by, Wei is getting stronger and stronger, and Shu is getting weaker and weaker. Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition was also becoming more and more weak.
Therefore, the surprise attack plan proposed by Wei Yan at the beginning is very reasonable, in the case of asymmetry of national strength, he can only gamble with risks, if Wei Yan succeeds, it may not be impossible to achieve the previous battle of Guandu and the battle of Chibi, which defeated the strong with the weak. It's a pity that Zhuge Liang's character makes him destined not to do this, and this has also become a place where many people black Zhuge Liang.
Of course, the biggest reason why Zhuge Liang was hacked. Of course, it is because he was blown into a god of wisdom and demons by "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and everyone understands the truth of one powder and ten blacks. What is militarily incompetent, politically in power, of course, this is also a fact, but it cannot be denied Zhuge Liang's contribution to Shu, he did "do his best, and then die".
There is also Liu Bei. Just because he was praised very high by Luo Guanzhong, and he especially loved to talk about benevolence and virtue, and liked to cry, so that he was ridiculed in various ways, and later almost all of them belittled Liu and Cao.
But in Wu Di's opinion. Luo Guanzhong is actually Liu Bei's senior black, many people feel that Liu Bei is really incompetent after watching the impression of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but Liu Bei in history is the only one among the monarchs of the Three Kingdoms who was born at the grassroots.
The biggest selling point of Wu Di's fifth "Three Kingdoms" is naturally the fateful duel between Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi, and in the end, Zhuge Liang's fall in Wuzhang Yuan is obviously more sensational, in fact, Zhuge Liang is also a tragic figure.
"Where to find the Prime Minister's ancestral hall, Parson Sen outside Jinguan City. The green grass is from the spring, and the yellow oriole is hollow and has a good sound. Three times to worry about the world, two dynasties to help the old ministers. He died before he left the school, which made the hero cry. Du Fu's "Shu Xiang" may depict Zhuge Liang's pathos very well.
He died before he left the school, which made the hero cry.
Sima Yi naturally sympathized with Zhuge Liang, because Wu Di made a "Water Mirror Eight Wonders", which is different from the original version, Sima Yi has also become one of the Eight Wonders of the Water Mirror, as a "Tomb Tiger", and "Wolong" Zhuge Liang is a senior brother, when they were in the Water Mirror Villa, they had played happily together, the two were close in age, Sima Yi was two years older than Zhuge Liang, and he was equally talented, so he naturally had a common topic.
When Wu Di depicted the fateful duel between the two, he also interspersed a good memory of getting along as friends in the past, but unfortunately now they are their own masters and want to see each other, this strong contradiction is actually quite attractive to readers.
And in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", the fake Zhuge scared away the living Sima, obviously suspected of belittling Sima Yi's IQ, so in Wu Di's pen, this plot was deliberately done by Sima Yi in order to achieve the name of Zhuge Liang.
Moreover, Sima Yi is quite ambitious, and if he wants to seize the military power, it is naturally impossible to kill Shu Han without Zhuge Liang at once, anyway, he will slowly grind it, and by the way, he can expand his prestige in Wei and make more soldiers return to his heart.
All in all, this novel may not be as exciting as the previous ones, because basically no tricks are played in the later stage, and even the fighting generals before the battle are already boring, the reason is, of course, that the famous generals are old, and in the later stage, Jiang Wei and Deng Ai are probably real famous generals, and these two are still rare handsome talents, which can be described as both wise and brave.
Wu Di decided to finish these two films and put them on the market together, so that readers can watch them happily, and then she can finally start the journey of other "Civilization" series, but in addition to the official history, she will definitely not write in such detail as "Three Kingdoms", it is too costly, after completing "Three Kingdoms", her next masterpiece will be the beginning of the "Myth" series.
Just when Wu Di was concentrating on writing, there was always someone who bothered her, and this person was naturally the campus public known named Liu Tengfei in Zhongdu University, who used the big summoning technique of the @ username frequently, and then various double reeds, and finally successfully stirred up the "Ten Sins of Wu Di" he wrote.
Of course, among them, Wu Dihei has contributed a lot, they always do not give up every opportunity to smear Wu Di, but there are other people who provoke Wu Dihei. (To be continued......)
