As we all know, Zhuge Liang in the Three Kingdoms has always been a representative of loyal subjects and wise men, and his whole life was bowed down to death for the great cause of Shu Han, but he had not yet completed the great cause of six qi mountains and restored the Han dynasty, Zhuge Liang fell ill and died in Wuzhangyuan, after his death, the Shu state supported for more than ten years before it perished, and many people pushed this black pot to the later lord Liu Chan, believing that it was his fainting and cowardice, which caused the demise of the Shu Han regime.
Is that really the case? Let's first analyze a wave based on the background at that time, the Shu kingdom because of Zhuge Liang's effect of persuading farmers in Hanzhong and implementing military tun cultivation warfare, the population reached one million, and in the face of the Cao Wei clique with a population of four million, Zhuge Liang and his disciple Jiang Wei chose to fight for many years and launched more than a hundred battles in decades.
The State of Shu chose to fight with weakness and strength, while the State of Wei was passively defensive, during which Zhuge Liang's five Northern Expeditions, although it achieved certain results, did not hurt the foundation of Cao Wei, but on the contrary, the State of Shu, because of the invasion of troops throughout the country, resulting in the busy time of farming, there were not even men harvesting wheat in the country, and the front war required a large supply of grain and grass, in order to cut down Wei, the State of Shu could be said to have hollowed out its national strength, which was an important reason for the overthrow of the Shu Han regime.
Besides, is Liu Chan really weak and incompetent? In the film and television drama, he favored the eunuch Huang Hao, which led to the decline of the Shu Han regime, and because of the "happy not to think of Shu", posterity said that he was Liu Adou who could not be supported. (The origin of Lebu Sishu: After the fall of the Shu kingdom, Sima Zhao set up a banquet to entertain Liu Chan, and Sima Zhao asked Liu Chan if he missed his hometown, at this time Liu Chan said: "Here is happy, do not think about Shuye.") ”）
Is this Liu Chan's fainting and cowardly side? In fact, if Liu Chan said that he missed his hometown, it is estimated that Sima Zhao would definitely think that he had the heart of restoration, and killed the killer, even if he did not kill, for his dominance, he just let Liu Chan return to his former residence, Liu Chan's answer was to let Sima Zhao dispel his doubts, implying that he was not a threat, Sima Zhao listened to it, and sure enough, he laughed, and also sealed Liu Chan as the Duke of Anle, so Liu Chan thus had a good ending, so from another aspect, Liu Chan was still very smart.
During Zhuge Liang's reign, it can be said that the chancellor of the DPRK was basically brought up by him, and zhang Fei Guanyu, the only one who could contain Zhuge Liang at that time, was already dead, and Zhao Yun was the head of the horse for Zhuge Liang at that time, so when he went to the dynasty, seeing the powerful Zhuge Liang, Liu Chan, who had no right to speak, only had one line left, "Everything is decided by the father."
After Zhuge Liang's five Northern Expeditions, his body was already overwhelmed, but he still held his breath strongly, and he did not expect that when Wu Zhangyuan's illness was onset and the limit was approaching, Ah Dou heard the news and immediately sent Li Fu to come, and at the same time listened to Zhuge Liang's last words, and seeing Zhuge Liang dying on the bed, Li Fu rushed forward and asked: "Minister, Your Majesty asked me to ask you, what should Zhuge Zhan do after you die?" ”
Zhuge Liang reacted instantly in his heart, he had always thought that the lord of the future only knew pleasure and ignored the government, it turned out that he was hiding very deeply, Liu Chan was smart, he was afraid that Zhuge Liang's son would unite with other ministers in the DPRK to commit the following crimes and stage a usurpation drama, Zhuge Liang replied intermittently at that time: "Your Majesty is assured, there are still 800 mulberry trees in the old minister's home, which is enough to feed him." ”
Hearing this, Liu Chan also relaxed his heart, he knew that the Zhuge family had no ambitions, so after taking power, Liu Chan directly sealed Zhuge Zhan as a Pingshang scholar and commanded the central affairs, and later the Wei state invaded, Zhuge Zhan also died in battle in Jinzhu, and the Zhuge family was also called a loyal martyr.
In the end, although Liu Chan was an emperor who knew the way of moderation, he still could not reverse the fact that the Shu state was weak, and after the fall of the country, he also recognized the reality and chose to be a comfortable nobleman, which was also a good ending.
