First, the world has changed
When Liu Beisan was looking at Maolu, Zhuge Liang planned a strategy for capturing the world in the "Longzhong Pair". In a nutshell, there are two. The first is to occupy Xichuan and cross Jingzhou. The second is to accumulate strength, and once the time comes, it will attack from Xichuan and Jingzhou and sweep through the Central Plains.
Unfortunately, with Guan Yu's defeat of Jingzhou, this strategy was also equivalent to being abolished. Thus came Zhuge Liang's "Six Out of QiShan".
One is that Cao Wei cannot be allowed to develop with peace of mind, otherwise with Cao Wei's big head, even if the Shu Han opens and hangs, it will not be comparable. This is actually why Cao Wei talents stubble after stubble, but Shu Han is "Liao Hua pioneer". This is no way, the population base and economic development status determine.
The second is to create chaos through the Northern Expedition. When one side is weak, what it wants most is chaos, so as to win in chaos and fish in muddy waters. Zhuge Liangzhen had achieved this goal. For example, during the First Northern Expedition, Cao Rui was forced to sit in Chang'an personally. However, rumors spread in the capital city of Luoyang, saying that Cao Rui was killed by Zhuge Liang.
For a time, the people of Luoyang were panicked, and the chancellor of Cao Wei and Empress Guo almost sent Cao Zhi to the throne. Thanks to Cao Rui's timely return, if he took a step late, it was estimated that Cao Wei would fight first. After all, at that time, Cao Rui had just ascended the throne, and his foundation was still unstable.
Therefore, Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition was considered by many to be useless. However, considering the overall pattern of the Three Kingdoms, it was the best choice for the Shu Han dynasty at that time. And it was Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition that led sima yi to "Chengjing"...
As Zhuge Liang's star fell to Wuzhangyuan, Cao Wei and Shu Han all invariably opened a period of cultivation. Just like that, 16 years later, as Zhuge Liang's "Longzhong Pair" expected, "there is a change in the world" arrived, and Shu Han and others came to the opportunity to overturn, which was the change of Sima Yi's GaopingLing that occurred in 249 AD!
Second, Jiang Wei's 10,000 partial teachers cut Wei
The so-called "Gaopingling Change" was a gladiatorial struggle between two forces within Cao Wei. On the one hand, the Door Valve Clan headed by Sima Yi, and on the other side, Cao Wei Xungui, who had Cao Shuang as the eldest brother. As for The Emperor Cao Fang, it is a "rubber stamp" that has always been held by Cao Shuang in his hand.
And no matter who Sima Yi or Cao Shuang wins, Cao Fang will not sit still, otherwise why would Cao Shuang squeeze Sima Yi so much, not only breaking the balance between the Gate Valve Clan and Cao Wei Xungui, but also taking the concubines left by Cao Rui for himself? The attitude has been made clear.
Therefore, the change of Gao Pingling can be called a major reshuffle of Cao Wei. So much so that Xiahou Yuan's son Xiahou Ba, he fled to Shu Han and was recognized by Liu Chan as a relative—Zhang Fei married Xiahou Yuan's niece and gave birth to two daughters, two daughters, and both became Liu Chan's empresses.
Therefore, it is not exaggerated to call the change of Gao Pingling as an opportunity for Shu Han to turn the tables. That is to say, if Shu Han had seized this opportunity to attack Cao Wei on a large scale, perhaps he would have really changed the state of strength and weakness of the two sides.
Unfortunately, on the Shu Han side, only Jiang Wei led a partial division of less than 10,000 horses to attack the Yongliang area. Blocked by Guo Huai and Deng Ai, he failed to succeed, and did not turn over any waves at all, so that this excellent opportunity to flip the plate slipped away. Sima Yi took the opportunity to wash Cao Shuang and others in blood and control the situation in Cao Wei.
Seeing this, natural questions also came, obviously Jiang Wei had keenly captured the fighter plane of this overturn, but why did he only bring less than 10,000 horses to the partial division of Wei Wei? Jiang Wei really can't be blamed for this, if you want to blame it, you can only blame it, The Great General of the Shu Han Dynasty, Fei Yi!
Third, kill Wei Yan
Fei Yi's most famous thing is probably that after Zhuge Liang's death, he and Yang Yi killed Wei Yan together!
According to the Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms, before Zhuge Liang died, he had realized that it was difficult to get Wei Yan to withdraw his troops. Therefore, he left a last word: let Yang Yi return to Hanzhong with a large group of people and horses. As for Wei Yan, if he wants to retreat, he can retreat, and if he doesn't want to, you shouldn't take care of him.
Even though Zhuge Liang had just died on his front foot, Yang Yi, because he had always been in the same water and fire as Wei Yanshi, moved his mind and sent Fei Yi to test Wei Yan's attitude.
In this way, Fei Yi came, and Wei Yan immediately expressed his position: Xiang Xiang is gone, but there is still me Wei Yan, how can it be because of the death of one person that the world will be abolished? After Wei Yan, he began to discuss with Fei Yi and the two of them: who stayed, who escorted the coffin back, and he was very busy.
From this record, it can be inferred that at that time, Fei Yi must have followed Wei Yan's meaning: You are right! Otherwise, Wei Yan would not have been able to discuss with him the list of people to be left behind. And judging from the official positions at that time, after Zhuge Liang's death, Wei Yan was the highest official, and he had military seniority, which was indeed the best candidate.
In this way, after Fei Yi finished discussing with Wei Yan, he said: "I will immediately go back to persuade Yang Yi that he is a long historian and a civilian official, and whoever understands these military strategies will definitely agree with your opinion." As soon as Fei Yi returned, he teamed up with Yang Yi, and the two of them hurriedly withdrew.
Soon after, Wei Yan also turned around and felt that this was not right. So he hurried to ride away on horseback and found that the army had withdrawn one step too late.
Wei Yan was mad at that time, and played me like a monkey? Therefore, they desperately pursued and intercepted. This led to Wei Yan being labeled as a rebel and being accused of killing the three tribes by Yang Yi.
Obviously, Yang Yi was able to successfully kill Wei Yan, and Fei Yi made great contributions, and even played a "catalytic" role. Then Fei Yi did not understand, Wei Yan was already the only famous general of Shu Han at that time, and Shu Han still relied on him to town the field, could not kill, let alone start civil unrest?
Unfortunately, it is not written in the history books, so it is impossible to give a definite conclusion. However, in 248 AD, Fei Yi once said a word in front of Jiang Wei. Not only can we see from this why he assisted Yang Yi in killing Wei Yan, but it was also this sentence that caused Shu Han to lose the final opportunity to turn the tables.
Fourth, a sentence from Fei Yi
In 248 AD, Fei Yi came to Hanzhong. Four years ago, that is, in 244 AD, when Cao Shuang was cutting down Shu, Fei Yi and Wang Ping relied on the strategic arrangement of Wei Yan to defend Hanzhong and won a great victory in the "Battle of Xingshi"—I really don't know if at this moment, when Fei Yi set foot on the land of Hanzhong again, he remembered Wei Yan, who was wrongfully killed.
I'm afraid not! Because after Fei Yi took power, he began to suppress Jiang Wei. Every time Jiang Wei wanted to use troops against Cao Wei, Fei Yi had to exercise restraint and only give Jiang Wei a maximum of 10,000 people. [(Jiang Wei) Whenever he wanted to raise an army in a big way, Fei Yi often did not follow the rules, and his soldiers were not more than 10,000 people.] 】
That's why, during the gaopingling change, Jiang Wei only took 10,000 partial masters to cut Wei!
Fei Yi always pinched Jiang Wei's neck like this, and Jiang Wei naturally did not agree. So Fei Yi said to Jiang Wei like this: "I am not as good as Xiang Xiang and I am already far away; Xiang Xiang still can't set the middle summer, let alone me waiting!" It is better to protect the country and govern the people, respect the society, and wait for the capable people to inherit it with their merits, and do not think that they hope to be lucky and decide to succeed or fail in one fell swoop. If the result is not as good as his will, he will not be able to regret it. ”
This means that neither of our brothers can compare with Zhuge Liang. You see, even if Zhuge Liang's great ability is, he can't break through Cao Wei. Therefore, it is better to be a quiet beautiful man, develop Shu Han with peace of mind, and wait for the emergence of the later generation of cattle people. Don't expect a successful battle, what if you lose? Then it will be too late to regret it.
This was actually the reason why Fei Yi assisted Yang Yi in killing Wei Yan. He and Wei Yan are just the so-called "Tao Difference", Wei Yan wants to forge ahead, but he wants to keep it! Isn't this also the case with Jiang Wei?
In 249 AD, when Jiang Wei seized the perfect opportunity of the "Gaopingling Change" and led 10,000 partial soldiers to fight for his life against Wei, Fei Yi was in Hanzhong (Fei Yi only returned to Chengdu in 251 AD). Obviously, he knew Jiang Weifa Wei, but he should eat melon masses. If he had also raised troops from Hanzhong at that time, or granted Jiang Wei more soldiers and horses, the outcome would have been different.
Therefore, it is said that it was Fei Yi," who "ate melons" and insisted on his "protection of the country and the people, respect for the community", which caused Shu Han's last chance to turn the tables over, which was ruined by him...
