[No matter what you do, there is a process of gradual improvement, even a genius like Zhuge Liang is no exception.

In Zhuge Liang's five Northern Expeditions, this gradual process of improvement was very obvious.

The first, second, and third Northern Expeditions were the process of Zhuge Liang learning actual combat experience.

In these battles, Zhuge Liang went from the initial defeat to gradually grasp the initiative on the battlefield, and his combat style gradually matured. By the time Zhuge Liang went on his Fourth Northern Expedition, his combat style had matured and he had developed a set of tactics to defeat the enemy.

By the time Zhuge Liang went on his fifth Northern Expedition, the strength of the Shu army had reached the point where the opponent did not dare to confront him head-on.

It was the Shu army led by Zhuge Liang, who came and went freely in the enemy's control area, and even Sima Yi, the "Tomb Tiger" who was as famous as Zhuge Liang, did not dare to shake its edge head-on.

Moreover, if it weren't for the sudden heavy rain from the sky, Sima Yi would probably have been burned into fertilizer by Zhuge Liang in the mouth of the gourd.

The Wei army led by Sima Yi could not hold out, and the Wei army could only endure Zhuge Liang's wanton insults, and also watched Zhuge Liang Tuntian under his nose.

This situation has also become a spectacle in the history of Chinese warfare.

Even, when Zhuge Liang died and withdrew the army, and Sima Yi led the troops to pursue, he was frightened back by the bluffing counterattack of the Shu army. From this, we can see how powerful Zhuge Liang's deterrence of the enemy is.

Even his opponent Sima Yi couldn't help but sigh after visiting the ruins of the military camp left by Zhuge Liang and said that Zhuge Liang was a genius in the world.

Therefore, if you want to say that Zhuge Liang's military talent is not good, Sima Yi is afraid that he will be the first to disagree. 】

[It's a pity that the day is not a holiday.]

When Zhuge Liang was only fifty-four years old, he died of illness due to overwork.

If Zhuge Liang can live a few more years, he is likely to really be able to realize the ideal of reorganizing the Han dynasty. At that time, no one dared to question Zhuge Liang's military talent anymore. 】

"Alas, Zhuge Liang has indeed done his best."

"Yes, if it weren't for Guan Yu and Liu Bei's repeated defeats and defeats, they lost all of Shu Han's family background, and with Zhuge Liang's ability, Shu Han might not be able to succeed in the Northern Expedition."

"Zhuge Liang is unwise and helpless to fight against Kyushu with the land of one state."

"After the Battle of Yiling, the state of Shu has actually gone away, but with one Zhuge Liang, Shu Han can last for several more decades."

Countless people sighed, both affirming Zhuge Liang and disdainful of Zhuge Liang's "stubbornness".

Descendants commented that Zhuge Liang was just using his life to practice his ideals and Longzhong's strategic layout against the times.

Without further ado, let's continue watching the video,

[Zhuge Liang's fifth major achievement: White Emperor entrusted Gu, and was ordered in danger.

In the first year of Zhang Wu, in 221 AD, Guan Yu lost Jingzhou and was killed by Eastern Wu, and Zhang Fei was killed by his own soldiers on the way to avenge Guan Yu; In order to avenge his brothers, Liu Bei brazenly raised the whole country's troops to crusade against Eastern Wu!

Liu Bei led the generals Feng Xi, Zhang Nan, and Huang Quan to supervise hundreds of thousands of water and land troops, all of which were the core forces of the Xishu group, but they were defeated by Lu Xun of Eastern Wu, hundreds of thousands of troops were lost, Zhang Nan and Feng Xi were killed in battle, Huang Quan was blocked by the Eastern Wu naval army, surrendered to Cao Wei, and Liu Bei was defeated and retreated to the White Emperor City.

After this battle, the Western Shu family was defeated, and the vitality was greatly damaged, and Sun Wu and Cao Wei Bingfeng all pointed to Shu! 】

[But at this time, Liu Bei couldn't afford to be sick.

In 223 AD, in the first month, Liu Bei summoned Zhuge Liang to the White Emperor City, and in February, Zhuge Liang arrived in Yong'an, at this time Liu Bei was bedridden.

Zhuge Liang told Liu Bei that Liu Zhang was taken to Jiangling by Sun Quan and gave him an official position as the assassin of Yizhou.

Liu Bei understands what Zhuge Liang wants to express, and the biggest task now is to quickly determine the successor and stabilize the situation.

Liu Bei said his last words to Zhuge Liang tiredly, and told Zhuge Liang: "If you are ten times more talented than Cao Pi, you will be able to stabilize the country and finally decide on a big event." If the heir can be supplemented, it will be supplemented; If you are not talented, you can take it yourself. ”】

Not only Guan Yu, but even Liu Bang, Liu Che, Liu Xiu and others were shocked, "Liu Bei trusts Zhuge Liang to such an extent? ”

[Zhuge Liang listened to Liu Bei's heartfelt words, and wept silently, saying that he would do his best to assist Liu Chan and repay Liu Bei's kindness.

Liu Bei promoted Li Yan of Jingzhou to Zhuge Liang as his deputy and was Shang Shuling.

Liu Bei called out the two sons beside him, Liu Li and Liu Yong, and entrusted them to Zhuge Liang.

In the end, he left an edict to the crown prince Liu Chan, telling him to treat Zhuge Liang as his father. 】

"The monarch is like this, he is really envious of others!"

"That's why Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang are willing to be sung by future generations. It's just a pity that Guan Yu and Liu Bei personally ruined Shu Han's future. ”

[Nowadays, many people like to be unconventional and like to engage in "conspiracy theories" to show their mavericks.

The White Emperor City Tuogu was originally a model of perfect monarch and minister relationship for two thousand years, and Zhuge Liang also fulfilled his promise in twelve years.

Many conspiracy theories actually come from a sentence from Kangxi.

Kangxi believes that Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang to "take it for himself" so that Zhuge Liang would be the emperor himself, which was actually used to test Zhuge Liang.

But judging from the original intention, Liu Bei is more likely to let Zhuge Liang change himself to a prince.

Maybe this is the difference between Manchu and Han cultures, thinking that the Qing Dynasty is the most brutal dynasty in the battle for succession, it is normal for Kangxi to have this idea. 】

Emperor Kangxi Xuanye suddenly clenched his toes in embarrassment, "Su Shangshen is not kind. Isn't this saying in front of countless people in parallel spaces that I, Xuan Ye, am careful? ”

[In the third year of Zhangwu, in 223 AD, Liu Bei was in the White Emperor City, regretted not listening to Zhuge Liang's words, forcibly attacked Wu, and instructed Zhuge Liang to assist the queen Liu Chan After that, a generation of heroes passed away. 】

Guan Yu had already learned about Liu Bei's defeat at Yiling from others.

But when he roughly understood the ins and outs of the whole thing from Su Qian's video, he felt even more remorse and anxiety in his heart.

Guan Yu was lying on the wall of light, and when he looked at Liu Bei, who was about to die, holding Zhuge Liang's hand and asking for the future, he finally couldn't help crying, "Big brother, third brother!" I'm sorry for you!! ”

[Liu Bei died, leaving a dilapidated Shu Kingdom to Zhuge Liang and Liu Chan.

Liu Chan Everyone knows that there is almost no hope.

It was in this extremely unfavorable situation that Zhuge Liang assisted Liu Chan to ascend the throne, wisely retreated from the Five-Way Alliance, stabilized the Shu regime, reunited with Eastern Wu, and resisted Cao Wei together. 】

After hearing these words, Guan Yu finally barely stopped crying and looked up at the light curtain,

[Zhuge Liang's sixth major achievement, pacifying Nanzhong and stabilizing the rear.

After Liu Bei's death, Zhuge Liang took over the control of Shu Han, and he still did not forget the conversation he had with Liu Bei when he was in Longzhong, nor did he abandon his ideal of recovering the Han Dynasty.

However, just when Zhuge Liang was actively governing the affairs of Shu and preparing for the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, Meng Shu, the barbarian chieftain of Nanzhong, rebelled against Yongchang Taishou Yonghong in Shu one after another, directly threatening the rear of Shu.

If you want the Northern Expedition to be worry-free, Zhuge Liang must first pacify Nanzhong and stabilize the rear.

So, in 225 AD, Zhuge Liang supervised 100,000 troops to go deep into the barren land of the south to crusade against the rebels!

After more than 30 battles, the Shu army killed Yonghong, captured Meng Shu seven times, and finally pacified Nanzhong.

Shu Han settled down in Nanzhong and obtained a large amount of resources, and formed the Wudang Flying Army, a strong army.

After a long period of accumulation, Shu Han finally had the strength and foundation of the Northern Expedition. 】

"This Zhuge Liang is really a god and a man!" Liu Che's eyes lit up in admiration.

Liu Xiu muttered to himself: "In my opinion, Zhuge Liang's situation is much worse than Wang Meng's. To say that Wang Meng 'works to cover Zhuge is probably an exaggeration. ”

"Kong Ming, I want to say thank you for the eldest brother and the third brother, and I'm sorry."
