First, Liu Beituo isolated Zhuge Liang
In fact, for the emperor to say, it is not a good thing to be alone.
Before Cao Cao died, he did not leave him alone, but instead said to his wives and concubines: After I die, you will live here, weaving cloth, etc., and your little days will not be affected, don't think too much about me.
Why didn't Cao Cao trust him? Cao Pi has grown up and has his own power, surrounded by a vote of little brothers, enough to take on the girder. And Cao Cao also explained Cao Pi's task: I Cao Cao was the King of Zhou Wen. Then Cao Pi's task was naturally to overthrow Emperor Xian of Han and open the country of Cao Wei.
On the other hand, Liu Bei, what did he compare with Cao Cao? Most of his life ran from east to west, and Liu Chan naturally followed the bad luck, which doomed Liu Chan's enlightenment education to be better than Cao Pi. It was easy for Liu Bei to have Xichuan and Hanzhong, but Guan Yu lost Jingzhou, and in an instant, Liu Bei had to play for his life again.
In this state of Liu Bei, let alone teach by example, educate his children well, it is not easy for Liu Chan to survive. Moreover, Liu Bei was defeated by a Yiling army, and he also lost almost all the top beams and pillars of the Shu Han Mesozoic Dynasty. And Shu Han is also in turmoil. So he had to be alone.
Liu Bei said to Zhuge Liang: If the heir can be supplemented, he can be supplemented; if he is not talented, he can take it upon himself!
Kangxi despised it and said: "Treat each other with deceit, despise!
The problem is, I really think that Liu Bei handed over a "rich splendid country", wake up! Shu Han was a thunder that could explode at any time. At this moment, Huang Yuan rebelled, and Liu Chan scattered all his relatives and soldiers to quell the rebellion. If Huang Yuan really gets his hands on it, Liu Beitou is alone? Hold a "hammer". [(Huang Yuan) raised the county to rebel and burned Linqiong City.] Shi Liang went east to the provincial disease (in the White Emperor City to be isolated), Chengdu single virtual, is (Huang) Yuanyi has nothing to worry about. 】
Therefore, Kangxi despised Liu Beituo's loneliness, and the author has reservations.
Obviously, Liu Bei entrusted the lonely Zhuge Liang, not so much to the world, but rather to the hope of "reviving the Han Dynasty and returning to the old capital"!
Anyone can say that Liu Bei is hypocritical, a hypocrite, etc., but they can't deny his spirit of unyielding resistance. It is precisely because of this spirit that Shu Han is obviously different from Cao Wei or Eastern Wu. It is called by many: The Shu Han was a regime established and maintained by "spiritual strength (ideals)."
Isn't the same with Zhuge Liang? Knowing that it could not be done, five northern expeditions (six out of Qishan), and finally tired of the stars fell to the five Zhangyuan, that is: bow down to exhaustion, and then die! Strong ideals and beliefs as a support!
It should be known that as long as Zhuge Liang was willing, Shu Han surrendered to Cao Wei, and he was still a high-ranking official Houlu. However, Zhuge Liang carried the entire Shu Han Dynasty, frantically flattened Cao Wei, and raised the banner of "Kuang Fu Han Room, Return to the Old Capital", and left behind these seeds such as Jiang Wan, Fei Yi, and Jiang Wei.
Don't think that Liu Chan is a Ming Jun, and also washes all kinds of baptisms, Liu Chan is not at all, he is at most a lord of shoucheng! It was these seeds left by Zhuge Liang that grew into the heavenly trees of Shu Han and supported the sky of Shu Han! This is actually the reason why posterity generally despised Liu Chan's surrender, but respected Shu Han.
In a long historical drama dominated by materialism and utilitarianism, a group of idealists rushed onto the stage and stood in the center of the stage. And Liu Beituo's lone Zhuge Liang is undoubtedly the climax of this drama.
Second, Liu Beituo was alone with Li Yan
If you say that Liu Beituo is lonely and Zhuge Liang, it is the inheritance of faith! Then entrusting Li Yan is a transfer of power!
After Liu Bei got Xichuan, the local Yizhou powerful forces became a force that he had to cooperate with but also strictly guard against. Just like when Liu Bei was in Xuzhou, Chen Qun and Liu Bei were so iron, why didn't they follow Liu Bei into the rivers and lakes? Chen Qun belonged to the representatives of the local powerful forces.
Understanding this point, we can understand that the so-called local powerful forces have always been who came and cooperated with to seek benefits. For example, Cao Pi used the Nine Pins Zhongzheng system to recognize and cede benefits to the door valves haoqiang in exchange for their support and replacing Emperor Xian of Han.
Nishikawa is the same. It was Fa Zheng who initially undertook this function, and all kinds of revenge and retribution for his kindness were all troubled by Zhuge Liang, so why did Zhuge Liang not care, but instead supported it? Because Fa Zheng is performing this kind of function, do you obey Liu Bei? Well, let's cooperate, be good buddies. Dare to disobey Liu Bei? Just make an excuse to hit you – what did you mean when you sneered at me?
After Fa Zheng died, he became Huang Quan. During the Battle of Yiling, Huang Quan had no choice but to surrender to Cao Wei and became Li Yan!
Therefore, Liu Beituo isolated Li Yan, obviously dividing him into regions and responsibilities, and there was no "ideal and belief" exchange at all.
"Unify the internal and external military forces, supervise Yong'an". He gave Li Yan military power and ceded interests, but let him garrison Yong'an and face Eastern Wu, which was the most serious danger to Shu Han at that time.
It was equivalent to having Li Yan resist Eastern Wu and ensure the safety of Shu Han, while Zhuge Liang took the opportunity to complete internal rectification as soon as possible and assist Liu Chan.
Therefore, Liu Bei's painting style of Li Yan is not the same as that of Zhuge Liang, the target person is different, the role (function) is different, and Liu Bei distinguishes it very clearly. To use an inappropriate analogy, "Zhuge Liang and Liu Chan, this is pro, family, Li Yan is an outsider who needs to cooperate."
Therefore, one jun can take matters into his own hands, and the other is to unify the internal and external military, and Liu Bei is shrewd!
3. Why ignore Zhao Yun?
Zhao Yun was the most influential of the Shu Han warlords after Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. It belongs to the rank of elder, although the position is not high, but it has great influence within the Shu Han Dynasty, and the outside is Ma Chao.
Now that Liu Bei was about to die, and Shu Han was in danger, why did Liu Bei Tuo ignore Zhao Yun? Logically this should not be. Three reasons.
First, Liu Beituo's lone Zhuge Liang and Li Yan took a balance. One inside and one outside, one internal affairs and one military, one Shu Han top pillar, one Yizhou power spokesman.
Then at this moment, if Liu Bei entrusts Zhao Yun again, this balance will be broken, which is worse. How to arrange Zhao Yun? Helping Zhuge Liang? Sorry, what would Li Yan think! Assist Li Yan, sorry, Li Yan will be happy? Everyone was a lonely minister, and it was obvious that Zhao Yun listened to Zhuge Liang. Two to one, Li Yan will still do a good job?
You let Zhao Yun supervise Yong'an, guard against Eastern Wu, and Li Yan return? Wouldn't that just create an opportunity for Li Yan to play in tandem and add blockage to Zhuge Liang?
Second, Zhao Yun's level was not enough. At that time, Zhao Yun was the governor of Jiangzhou, one of the four major governors of shu and Han, and the other three were the governors of Yong'an, the governors of Yu, and the governors of Hanzhong. Now that Li Yan, as the minister of "unifying the internal and external military forces," has sat in Yong'an and assumed the duties of the governor of Yong'an, how can he entrust Zhao Yun with solitude again?
Third, leave room for Liu Chan. Many old emperors would do unreliable things before they died. For example, Kangxi, who severely criticized Liu Beituo's loneliness, deliberately tossed Zhang Tingyu, Ma Qi and other important ministers. It's just that Kangxi didn't play well, let Zhang Tingyu guess it, not only was he not frustrated, but he was secretly happy, and said to his son: Wait, as soon as the new emperor ascends the throne, dad's official will be bigger.
Liu Bei ignored Zhao Yun, why not this kind of means? In case Liu Chan reached a critical moment, once Zhao Yun was sealed, zhao yun was originally Liu Chan's life-saving grace, and this time Zhao Yun was not small cosmic explosion?
Zhao Yuntuo was the guardian deity beside Liu Chan! However, there is a difference between public and undisclosed!
Therefore, Liu Beituoguo ignored Zhao Yun, not only shrewd, but also very clever. The sharpest and deadliest knife was hidden, and no one else could feel it. Not only did it allow the Situation of Shu Han to be balanced, but it also increased the insurance coefficient for Liu Chan!
Therefore, Liu Bei is worthy of being a "tyrant", and the White Emperor ignored Zhao Yun when he was alone, which can be described as killing three birds with one stone!
