The conquest of the Three Kingdoms of Wei Shu and Wu is already well known. Since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when the world was in chaos, the world had begun to be in chaos at this time. As a result, many powerful figures have emerged, and it is undeniable that from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was an era of talents. Countless talents emerged during this period.
Among the Three Kingdoms of Wei and Shu, only Shu Han was the most difficult to establish, and Liu Bei still did not have a place for more than half a hundred years at that time. After arriving, Liu Bei, who had been displaced for half a lifetime, established the Shu Han. The establishment of Shu Han was the most difficult, so Liu Bei attached the greatest importance to the development of Shu Han. It was only in Liu Bei's later years that he began to faint.
Liu Bei's fainting performance was to launch the Battle of Yiling, and it was precisely because of the emergence of the Battle of Yiling that the Shu Han Dynasty appeared to decline. After the Battle of Yiling, Liu Bei died of illness in the White Emperor City, and after that it was the world of Liu Chan, the lord of The Shu Dynasty. Liu Chan's evaluation in history has been mixed, and people today have different views of Liu Chan.
Most people think that Liu Chan was a faint monarch, and it is undeniable that during Liu Chan's reign, the early period was still very good, and in the later period, he began to faint and incompetent, especially after Zhuge Liang's death. Liu Chan began to spoil the villain, which made Liu Chan faint. Eventually, Cao Wei launched a campaign to destroy Shu, after which Shu Han perished.
In 263, the Wei army began to counterattack, and Sima Zhao sent Zhong Hui, Deng Ai, and Zhuge Xu to divide into three routes and vigorously attack Shu. In the face of the Shu army, Liu Chan chose to surrender on his own initiative, and Liu Chan survived. After arriving at Cao Wei, Liu Chan was not killed, but was made the Duke of Anle until his death in Luoyang in the seventh year of the Tai Dynasty (271), at the age of 64.
Although Liu Chan surrendered to Cao Wei, Sima Zhao must have been wary of Liu Chan. The Spring and Autumn of the Han Dynasty records an incident in which Sima Zhao watched Liu Chan's reaction at a banquet. As a result, the old officials of the Shu Han Dynasty all wept with grief after seeing it, and only Liu Chan looked at him with a relaxed look. So Sima Zhao asked Liu Chan if he wanted to miss Shudi?
At that time, Liu Chan replied wittily: "Happy here, don't think about Shu." "This is where the idiom Lebu Comes From. However, these six words became the manifestation of Liu Chan's great wisdom and foolishness. Liu Chan, as the second emperor of the Shu Han Dynasty, reigned for 41 years, and with the assistance of Zhuge Liang in the early stage, Liu Chan was very relaxed, and in the later period, Zhuge Liang died of illness, and problems occurred during Liu Chan's reign.
For example, the reuse of eunuch Huang Hao, fighting crickets and so on. Liu Chan's cleverness was to save his life by pretending to be stupid and clumsy after surrendering, so that he, the king of the fallen country, could die well. It is undeniable that after Liu Chan surrendered, all aspects of his life were still good. Liu Chan could not have imagined that 50 years later, there would be a descendant who would avenge the destruction of the country.
Later, the Western Jin Dynasty was established, and at the same time, ethnic minorities in northern Shanxi began to rise. Their leader was named Liu Yuan. In the first year of Yongxing, Liu Yuan claimed to be a descendant of Liu Chan. At this time, Liu Yuan established himself as emperor and formally established the country, with the name of the Great Han. At the same time, Liu Yuan posthumously honored Liu Chan as Emperor Xiaohuai, and posthumously honored Han Gaozu and other Western Han emperors as distant ancestors and were worshipped.
Liu Yuan and his son Liu Cong (劉 Cong) marched south to conquer the Western Jin Dynasty. At this time, the Western Jin Dynasty experienced the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, so the national strength of the Western Jin Dynasty was greatly reduced, which gave the Hu people in the north a chance. Liu Yuan is undoubtedly one of them. In the fifth year of Yongjia, Liu Yuan led a large army into Luoyang, the capital of the Western Jin Dynasty, and captured Emperor Huai of Jin in the Western Jin Dynasty. It is worth mentioning that in this war, all five sons of Liu Chan died.
Later, Emperor Huan of Jin ascended the throne in Chang'an and wanted to continue the rule of the Western Jin Dynasty, but Liu Cong did not spare Emperor Huan of Jin at all. So the Western Jin Dynasty perished, and it is worth mentioning that in the process of the fall of the Western Jin Dynasty, Sima Rui survived, so he went south to establish the Eastern Jin Dynasty. It's just that the emperors of the Eastern Jin Dynasty were almost all puppets, even Sima Rui.
This prospective descendant of Liu Chan avenged Liu Chan. It is undeniable that Liu Yuan recognized Liu Chan as his ancestor in order to have a good reputation for uprising. Liu Yuan established himself as emperor and began a war to destroy the Western Jin Dynasty. Under such circumstances, Liu Yuan undoubtedly avenged liu Chan's subjugation of the country. It is worth mentioning that among all the kings of the fallen country, Liu Chan's ending is undoubtedly very good.
