Zhuge Liang, Shu Han Dynasty Minister of the Three Kingdoms period, was an outstanding politician, military expert, writer and inventor in ancient China. Thanks to the popularity of the novel, Zhuge Liang's reputation in the ancient military circles is still quite loud, and the three Gu Maolu are out of the long. He helped Liu Bei to unite with Eastern Wu in the battle of Chibi to defeat the Cao army, thus forming the three kingdoms of the great power, taking Jingzhou, Yizhou, and capturing Hanzhong to establish the Shu Han. After Liu Bei died and Liu Chan succeeded to the throne, he handled political affairs conscientiously, and the so-called bowing down and dying was over.
He paid his last effort for Shu Han, and finally died of illness in Wuzhangyuan of the Fifth Northern Expedition due to overwork. Even if the exaggerations in the novels are not exaggerated, in terms of the history of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms alone, they have extremely outstanding military and political talents. He is considered to be a representative of the loyal subjects and wise men of traditional Chinese culture, but many people evaluate that he has four major regrets in his life: believing in the wrong person, following the wrong person, marrying the wrong person, and killing the wrong person. But is this really the case? Maybe not
Believe the wrong person
Zhuge Liang believed that this person was Ma Mo, who had more energy than ordinary people and liked to discuss military strategy. Zhuge Liang had great trust in him, but Ma Mo had a big problem with this man, that is, exaggeration. Liu Bei clearly pointed it out before his death, and the Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms records that the ancestor Lord Linxue said liang yue: Ma Mo was exaggerated and could not be of great use. Zhuge Liang, who had always been intelligent, did not think so, and continued to let Ma Mo join the army, often talking to him about military strategy from day to night.
Even if it was talked about, the key was also entrusted with a heavy responsibility, let him go to the town to guard the street kiosk. The street pavilion was the place of throat, and Zhuge Liang arranged for him to go for the purpose of promoting him in the future, afraid that he would lose his advice again and again. As a result, Ma Mo did not listen, so the street kiosk was lost, and other unfavorable first Northern Expeditions ended in failure. Zhuge Liang realized that he believed in the wrong person, but it was a pity that it was too late to regret it. For the sake of military discipline, he had to tearfully chop off the horse, and from the lost street kiosk, it was undoubted that the wrong person was believed.
Follow the wrong person
It is often felt that Zhuge Liang had followed the wrong person, and if he could follow Cao Cao or Sun Quan, he would have achieved greater success. This is a judgment based on the territory of Shu Han, after all, as far as the territory of Shu Han is concerned, no matter what Zhuge Liang does, it is difficult to laugh to the end. But is this really the case? No, Zhuge Liang can only shine by following Liu Bei, and in the other two camps, he may be drowned in the corner of history.
Cao Cao was suspicious, and it was impossible to believe him wholeheartedly, let alone to ask him out of the mountain. If you don't come, you can directly use the knife, Sima Yi will not obey because of the danger of his life, and there are not many strategists under Cao Cao's hands. Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Sima Yi, and Xun You were all extraordinary, and Zhuge Liang did not seem to be much better than them, Sun Quan needless to say.
There are not many strategists, but most of them are elder-level figures, especially Zhang Zhao is still very pedantic and stubborn. From the wisdom of the big family, he was not suitable for these two camps, because his brothers Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Shi were already in these two camps. Going to Liu Bei's Shu Han was his best choice, and the claim of the wrong person did not hold.
Marry the wrong one
The idea of marrying the wrong person is also untenable, and people think that the wrong marriage is nothing more than feeling that Huang Yueying is spicy and ugly. This seems to be somewhat unworthy of the clever and loyal Zhuge Liang, and even the proverb that Mo Zuo Kong Ming chose a woman and was getting an ugly woman to spread. But since ancient China, there is also a saying that a virtuous wife should marry a virtuous wife, and the help of a virtuous wife to the family is very great, and Huang Yueying just happens to have the talent worthy of Zhuge Liang. Facts have also proved that although Huang Yueying did not look good, he was of great help to Zhuge Liang.
Kill the wrong person
Killing the wrong person refers to Wei Yan, and the history does not explain that Zhuge Liang had the idea of killing Wei Yan, but his death cannot be said to have nothing to do with Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang rejected Wei Yan's strategy several times and handed over power to Ma Dai and Yang Yi, which led to Wei Yan and Yang Yi's feud. This in turn caused the disaster of Wei Yan's killing, and Wei Yan's killing was directly related to Zhuge Liang, and it could be regarded as his "killing". For shu Han, who had lost a general one after another, Wei Yan was a rare fierce general, so it seemed that "killing the wrong person" did not seem to be wrong.
