In the Three Kingdoms, Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang, who is more skilled? The answer is simple
Introduction: If you want to say that the two most talented people in the entire Three Kingdoms period, it is naturally Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi. The two are of similar age, of the same origin, and the positions held by their respective forces are also like natural enemies, and the two are destined to have a duel, destined to earn a life and death. Therefore, because of the existence of their two people, the Three Kingdoms period will be so wonderful, and their intellectual strategy competition will make us so fascinated. Some netizens asked a question, the two of them, who is more skilled?
First of all, let's first look at Sima Yi's resume, he was born in the Wang clan of Hedong, he showed a very high IQ in his early years, and when he grew up, people even commented that he could be determined. Cao Cao wanted to recruit him, but Sima Yi did not want to do anything for Cao Cao in the early days, so he pretended to be ill and resigned. However, Cao Cao was a traitor after all, not only sent assassins but also threatened the lives of their families, sima Yi had no choice but to go to Xiangfu to take up his post, so cao Cao arranged for Cao Pi to serve as an aide. At that time, Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were vying for the position of Shizi, because with Sima Yi's assistance, they were defeated and won, and finally succeeded in ascending the throne and establishing the state of Wei, and Sima Yi thus entered the core of power of the state of Wei.
Zhuge Liang was also from the Jingzhou Clan, and because of Sima Hui's gifts and Zhuge Liang's extraordinary talent, he was recognized by Sima Hui at a young age that he could settle the world. Zhuge Liang also knew his own abilities and often compared himself to great men like Guan Zhong and Le Yi. Later, after he came out to assist Liu Bei, he burned Cao Cao's army and dreams in Chibi, and turned Liu Bei from a small general into the Shu Han Emperor sitting in Jingzhou and Yizhou, and he himself served as the chancellor of Shu Han. After Liu Bei's death, he entrusted his son to him, and Zhuge Liang became the de facto ruler of Shu Han.
The contest between the two of them also began during Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition, when the western battlefield of the Wei state was beaten by Zhuge Liang without the ability to fight back, and Sima Yi was ordered to resist when he was in danger, and the two had won and lost each other after many confrontations. The two most exciting matches between the two of them, Sima Yi almost killed Zhuge Liang in Xicheng, but finally won the empty city plan to retreat. Zhuge Liang almost burned Sima Yi's family to death in the upper valley, and finally the heavy rain fell on the sky to save them, which can be said to be equally divided. Neither can help the other.
But in the end, it turned out that Sima Yi was superior in skill, why? Zhuge Liang died of illness at the age of 54 because of years of overwork, and although Sima Yi was also old, he was very healthy, and after returning to China, he was able to personally suppress two rebellions, the first was the rebellion of Gongsun Yuan in Liaodong when he was more than 60 years old, Sima Yi personally led a large army to attack Liaodong, and solved the Liaodong problem in a world war. The second was when he was 70 years old when Wang Ling of Shouchun rebelled, and Sima Yi personally marched on the battlefield in the same rare year, killing Wang Ling on the spot and destroying his three clans. Just as the so-called winner is the one who laughs to the end, and the contest between the two of them is completely won by Sima Yi in the final victory.
Conclusion: There are many natural enemies in history, such as Zhang Yi su qin during the Warring States period, Sun Bing Pang Juan, and Zhu Yuanzhang Chen Youyu in the Ming Dynasty. Because of the other party, you can force out your own potential, and because you have the other party, you can completely show your talents. Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi are also such people, if they are not their own masters, I believe they will be a pair of very good friends.
