The general trend of the world, the division of long will be united for a long time, and the Three Kingdoms period has been disturbed, and there are countless people and strangers, the most worth mentioning is Zhuge Kongming. Zhuge Liang was born in a family of officials, because he had insight into the world and his ability was outstanding, so he was invited out of the mountains by Emperor Liu. After leaving the mountain, he devoted himself to assisting Uncle Liu Huang and bowing to Shu Han.
From the Longzhong countermeasures to the Chibi War, posterity can see Kong Ming's wisdom and his loyalty to Shu Han. After the death of Emperor Liu, he was also bent on recovering the Central Plains in order to fulfill the monarch's wishes. Even if the monarch died of illness, he did not have two hearts, and in order to answer the favor of Emperor Liu's appreciation, he faithfully assisted the Lord, but eventually died in Wuzhangyuan.
In 234 AD, Zhuge Liang gathered 100,000 soldiers and horses to prepare for the last war. At that time, he had already arrived in Wuzhangyuan, south of Weishui, and built a fort here to stock up on military food. This was a good scene of harmony between the military and the people, and he was also fully prepared to launch an attack on the State of Wei. The time and place are favorable, but I did not expect that he had calculated the world's affairs accurately, but he did not count himself.
During the protracted battle against the State of Wei, Kong Ming eventually died at the age of 54 due to overwork. The generals in the army also followed the arrangements of his life, and no one revealed the news of his death, but only wrapped his body up and retreated in a hurry.
I have to say that Kong Ming is indeed a generation of strange people, and he has long expected his own death, and he has been prepared before. Before his death, Zhuge Liang entrusted the three armies to Yang Yi, Jiang Wei, and others, and also gave Ma Dai a bag containing a clever plan. He asked Yang Yi and Fei Yi to lead the troops to retreat first, and Wei Yan and Jiang Wei broke off.
In addition, he clearly knew that Wei Yan and Yang Yi were at odds, but he still asked Wei Yan to obey Yang Yi's orders, and ordered that if Wei Yan did not obey the arrangement, he would immediately kill him.
From these arrangements, we can see that Kong Ming has extremely distrustful of Wei Yan, and this person has also made many meritorious contributions in the army, and it can be said that he is also a capable person. However, because Wei Yan thought that his failure to fully exert his talents was all the fault of Kong Ming's obstruction, he became dissatisfied, and the two were also at odds. After Kong Ming's death, this discord also became more intense.
After Zhuge Liang's death, the generals returned safely to Chengdu according to his arrangement, and Liu Chan posthumously honored Kong Ming as the Marquis of Zhongwu, and was eventually buried at Dingjun Mountain in Hanzhong. Without Kong Ming, the Shu kingdom also lost a great help, and eventually could not escape the end of destruction. In fact, the demise of the Shu Congress can see some clues from before, and the main reason is internal and external troubles and poor talents.
For a country, the strength of the country is particularly important, and in the later period of the Shu kingdom, there was an extreme shortage of talents, and almost no one in the DPRK and China was available. The only powerful general was Wei Yan, but this man was too radical. So much so that Zhuge Liang was not allowed to reuse it when he was alive, and he was not even called a will entrusted to him before his death.
So what did Wei Yan do wrong, so that Zhuge Liang wanted to reject and suppress him everywhere, tit-for-tat with him? In fact, the reason for this is also very simple, and it is not surprising. Before the two had had friction many times before, when Wei Yan came to defect to Liu Bei, Kong Ming thought that he was resilient. There will be a rebellion in the future, so he is very displeased with him, but the lord admires him.
In the late Three Kingdoms period, the shu state's military strength has not been strong, and zhuge liang has always acted cautiously for the sake of safety. However, Wei Yan's personality was extreme, so the two also clashed on the issue of the Northern Expedition. Kong Ming knew that if he died, Wei Yan would definitely fight. However, the Shu state was not strong and was not easy to attack, so he did not call Wei Yan when he formulated a plan before his death.
What's more, Kong Ming always felt that Wei Yan would rebel, so he reused Yang Yi, who was a vendetta against him, and handed over power to the defensive generals. In order to completely get rid of this aftermath, he had already thought of a plan to get rid of Wei Yan before he died. He knew that Wei Yan was extreme, so he informed Yang Yi that if he did not comply, he would kill him immediately. It can be said that all of Kong Ming's plans were for the sake of shu han, and he did not allow any danger to appear and undermine the stable development of the Shu state.
After Kong Ming's death, Yang Yi and others slowly retreated according to Kong Ming's last words. However, Wei Yan did not agree, and burned down the Pavilion Road where he was doing, and eventually he led his army to attack Yang Yi's troops. This was Kong Ming's plan, and Wei Yan was eventually beheaded by Ma Dai during his escape.
I have to say that Kong Ming's talent is indeed admirable, and he felt that this person would rebel from the first time he saw Wei Yan. Since then, he has always insisted on his own views and never gave Wei Yan any chance. In the end, Wei Yan was also calculated to die by Kong Ming, although his death made Shu Han one less general, but if he grew up, Shu Han might be more dangerous.
