Liu Chan, the lord of the later dynasty, has a total of seven sons, and the seven children have a very good personality, a kind heart, and can be called a good person, but in the imperial family, such a character is no longer suitable for dominating the world.
Compared with Liu Bei, Liu Chan was already a few grades weaker, and at the level of Liu Chan's son, there was a lot of difference. Shu Han, who only relied on Jiang Wei's bitter support, was in danger, facing Deng Ai's sneak attack, Liu Chan and Shu Han's ministers actively consulted, and for a while, the voices of "Destiny of Heaven" and "Going with the Flow" rose and fell, almost one-sided in favor of surrender.
He had seven sons: the eldest son, Liu Xuan, the second son, Liu Yao, the third son, Liu Xuan, the fourth son, Liu Zhen, the fifth son, Liu Chen, the King of the Northern Lands, the sixth son, Liu Ke, and the seventh son, Liu Xuan. Among the seven sons, Chen Chen was intelligent and wise since childhood, and yu was all good.
Shu Han descended
Shu Han faced Deng Ai's sneak attack troops, with the soldiers of Chengdu, they could completely resist, waiting for Jiang Wei to return to help, in fact, it was not a big deal. At least it was no problem to hold out for a while, but why did Liu Chan choose to surrender so quickly?
For the absolute surrender of Liu Chan, there are two diametrically opposed voices, one is to say that Liu Chan has vision, foresight, and sees clearly the situation of the future Wei state to unify the world, in order to avoid the suffering of the people from war, and finally decided to go with the flow and surrender to Cao Wei.
There is also a saying that is the opposite, saying that Liu Chan is an incompetent person, a tiger father and a dog, who cannot keep the inheritance laid down by his father, nor does he dare to choose to coexist and die with the society, and he is secretly living, coveting the powerful, completely disregarding the eyes of the world, and is a "unable to support Adou".
Jiang Wei is the main battle
Jiang Wei's position was very firm, because Jiang Wei was deeply favored by Zhuge Liang, so even though Jiang Wei was often isolated in the Shu Han and no one supported him, he still insisted on taking the route of Zhuge Liang's life and was determined to fulfill Zhuge Liang's last wishes. Zhuge Liang knew that he could not do it in order to repay Liu Bei's kindness; Jiang Wei knew that he could not do it in order to repay Zhuge Liang's kindness.
When Jiang Wei heard that Liu Chan surrendered, he believed that he must have torn his heart and lungs at that time, and had broken Shu Han in his hands, and he had no face to face Zhuge Liang, so even if he knew that the chances were small, he still carried out the final act of restoring the country, asking for benevolence and benevolence, and then dying.
Self-preservation of rich and noble civil servants
The civilian officials around Liu Chan were very different from Jiang Wei, some of them were from the Jingzhou Group, and some of them were from the Yizhou Group, which belonged to the locals.
Whether they were Liu Chan or Liu Bei, they were nothing more than seeking wealth, there were no ideals and ambitions at all, and they did not want to support any Han room, and at this time, when the Shu Han was destroyed, there was nothing about the Han. This scene is the same as the Battle of Chibi in that year, the civilian officials surrendered, why? Because they can surrender, as a local monk clan, whoever surrenders will reuse them, and they actually don't care who they mix with. Therefore, when they felt that it was unprofitable to fight, they began to advocate surrender and preserve their family power.
In the end, the Shu kingdom surrendered, and Liu Chan retreated completely, living for many years in an almost "brazen" way, without losing his wealth. However, Liu Chan's eldest son, Liu Xuan, did not have such good luck and was killed by Wei Guo.
Death of the Prince
Not killing Liu Chan was to keep Liu Chan, the titular boss, to surrender the country and avoid splitting the forces of the Shu Han and causing the situation to be complicated. But Jiang Wei and the crown prince Liu Xuan were miserable, and Guan Yu's full door.
"Killing Prince Xuan of Han and Jiang Wei's wife, the army was in a state of disarray." Some of the generals of Wei Ou are determined for a few days. "Zizhi Tongjian, Vol. 78"
Sima Zhao had his reasons for killing Liu Xuan, because Liu Xuan at that time was different from his father Liu Chan, and both he and Jiang Wei had no surrender, and both had a move to restore the country with Jiang Wei. This determined the fate of Liu Xuan's death, because Sima Zhao could not keep a time bomb, and if this person was there, the Shu kingdom would not be stable.
Liu Chan's cowardly and incompetent character made him make a wrong decision, it can be said that his wealth was exchanged for enduring humiliation and the blood of the Shu Han people, and his son died at the hands of Sima Zhao, but he could not be angry, and such a person could not be regarded as a kick in the ass.
On the day of Chengdu's surrender, the Wei army slaughtered the city for several days, and the blood in Chengdu was spilled, which is what Liu Chan called to avoid the destruction of life, which makes people feel ridiculous.
Although Liu Xuan was not a talent, his courage was commendable, and he believed that when facing the ancestors and patriarchs below, Liu Xuan at least had a face to see, and Liu Chan did not know how to be reprimanded by his father Liu Bei!
