Hello, everyone, Xiaobian and everyone have met again, today is another day full of vitality, what have you done? After a hard day, it is also time to take a break and see what Xiaobian will share with you today?
If Liu Chan didn't have talent, would Liu Bei cultivate it so vigorously? If Liu Chan was a useless person, would the Shu Han Qunchen still bother so much to carry out the Northern Expedition? Friends who know the history of the Three Kingdoms know that before Liu Bei died, he had certain doubts about whether Liu Chan could take over the heavy responsibility of Shu Han, which was of course normal, and every old emperor had this kind of worry before his death. Zhuge Liang replied, "The imperial court is eighteen years old, gifted and benevolent, and corporal Ed." This means that Liu Chan is talented, benevolent, and loves the people, and has the resources of a master. Liu Bei was relieved to pass the throne to Liu Chan.
So what about Liu Chan? Liu Chan reigned for 41 years, the longest reigning monarch of the Three Kingdoms. During his reign, Liu Chan supported Zhuge Liang and Jiang Wei in the continuous Northern Expedition and sat in the rear to coordinate the dispatch. Although there was a shortage of food and grass in the former army, most of the time it was sufficient grain, grass and armaments. To know that Shu Han only has one state, liu Chan's ability to do so is not low. As for the demise of the Shu Han Dynasty, in fact, it is also expected by everyone, after all, Cao Wei's time, geographical advantages, and people all prevailed, and the Northern Expedition of the Shu Han Dynasty was just to attack and defend, to prolong the life expectancy a little. However, if you carefully read the historical materials, it is not difficult to find that Liu Chan should indeed be responsible for the fall of the Shu Han Dynasty. He made two of the worst mistakes during his administration, which was to kill a person who should be released, but to release a person who should be killed.
The person to be released was the Shu general Wei Yan. Wei Yan was a famous general under Liu Bei, who came to prominence when Liu Bei entered Sichuan, and was promoted to general of Yamen for his military achievements. In the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an (219 AD), Liu Bei said that the queen wanted to return to Chengdu, and when he sent the general Zhen Shou Hanzhong, everyone thought it would be Zhang Fei, but Liu Bei promoted Wei Yan to be the governor of Hanzhong and the Taishou of Hanzhong, and the town guarded the northern barrier of Shu Han, and Liu Bei's army was shocked. One day, Liu Bei gathered his ministers and asked Wei Yan what he wanted to say, and Wei Yanhao said, "If Cao Cao comes from all over the world, please refuse for the King; if you want to have a crowd of 100,000 people, please swallow it for the King." Everyone was impressed.
As for the person to be killed, it was The eunuch Huang Hao, who was favored by Liu Chan. As a close confidant of Liu Chan, Huang Hao and Chen Qi, the attendants, manipulated the government, arbitrarily abused power, and excluded the general Jiang Wei at every turn. In the sixth year of Jing Yao (263 AD), the general Jiang Wei heard that Zhong would train troops in Guanzhong, so he wrote to Liu Chan and asked him to send troops to guard the border pass. Liu Chan consulted Huang Hao on this matter, but Huang Hao perfunctorily used the theory of ghosts and gods to perfunctory Liu Chan, believing that Wei Jun would not come. Therefore, Liu Chan did not take any defensive measures, which eventually led to Deng Ai smuggling into YinPing and hitting him by surprise. In this way, Liu Chan, under the persuasion of Yu Zhou, went out of the city and surrendered, and the Shu Han declared its demise.
