In the Three Kingdoms, for the death of Zhuge Liang, I believe that many readers feel very sad and regretful. When Zhuge Liang was not out of the mountains, he divided the world into three parts, and even helped Liu Bei, who had no soldiers, no land, and no power at that time, to obtain one-third of the world, and Zhuge Liang's ambition was known to be "to restore the Han Room and still be with the old capital", which is why after Liu Bei's death, Zhuge Liang has always insisted on the Northern Expedition. At the time of Zhuge Liang's last Northern Expedition, the night watching the sky knew that his time was not long, so he wanted to use the "seven star lamp to extend his life", if this move was successful, he could extend his life for a period, and as a result, everyone knew that Zhuge Liang's "seven star lamp life extension" failed, in fact, on the surface, Zhuge Liang was continuing his life, but in fact, it implied two major strategies, so what are these two strategies?
Resolve internal conflicts
There is a way is "tree big move", Zhuge Liang has always been the number two figure of Shu Han, has always been above the high hall. Before they died, these people may not dare to act rashly, because they are afraid of Zhuge Liang's power, and after Zhuge Liang's death, it is difficult to say, and some people will surface. When Zhuge Liang deeply felt that his life expectancy was not long, he used the "Seven Star Lamp" to prolong his life. Jiang Wei was ordered to lead thirty-nine soldiers outside to guard outside, and Zhuge Liang distributed seven big lamps in the camp tent, plus forty-nine small lamps, one lamp for inner peace, and after everything was ready, Zhuge Liang prayed to the heavens, and after Zhuge Liang insisted for seven days, he could increase his life for another time In the camp of Shu Han, Zhuge Liang knew the celestial signs, and Sima Yi in the Cao Wei camp also understood the celestial signs, Sima Yi found that the stars in the sky were out of place, and it was expected that Zhuge Liang would die soon, so he sent Xiahou Ba to the Shu camp to find out, Xiahou Ba was discovered by Wei Yan when he was investigating the situation of the Shu camp. Wei Yan hurriedly walked into Zhuge Liang's camp, and coincidentally extinguished Zhuge Liang's main lamp, causing Zhuge Liang's "Seven Star Lamps" to prolong his life.
Zhuge Liang, who knew that his life was short, constipated Jiang Wei, Yang Yi and others, and the content of the secret move was simply to say that Wei Yan wanted to oppose. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms describes: When I die, Wei Yan will rebel; when it is reversed, Ru and Linfeng will open this bag. At that time, there were also people who cut Wei Yan.
Why did Zhuge Liang expect Wei Yan to oppose? As early as when Zhuge Liang in Changsha saw Wei Yan, he saw that Wei Yan had a backbone behind his head. So why did Zhuge Liang still use Wei Yan? Because at that time, the shu Han talents were withering, and Wei Yan was the first pioneer general of the Shu Han at that time, so he still had to use Wei Yan, and he could still suppress Wei Yan in his lifetime, who would suppress Wei Yan after his death? At this time, Wei Yan could be said to be the first person under Liu Chan, and looking at the soldiers around him and the descendants of Shu Han, he was afraid that he was not capable of eradicating Wei Yan. Therefore, Zhuge Liang took advantage of the opportunity of continuing his life to eliminate the internal threat of Shu Han. After Zhuge Liang's death, Wei Yan did rebel, and because Zhuge Liang had a plan in advance, Yang Yi and Jiang Wei successfully put down the rebellion against Wei Yan, so that after Zhuge Liang's death, the Shu Han was united internally.
Confuse Sima and retain the power of Shu Han
Before Zhuge Liang's death, Zhuge Liang used a strategy to besiege Sima Father and Son in the Upper Valley, and used the fire to almost burn Sima Father and Son alive, but unfortunately, Tiangong did not make a beautiful rain, saving Sima Father and Son's life. After this battle, the Shu army won a great victory, and after that, Cao Wei always adopted a strategy of refusing to defend, even if Wei Yan went to scold the front and Zhuge Liang sent women's goods to Sima Yi to insult Sima Yi, Sima Yi still endured, because Sima Yi was looking for an opportunity to take Zhuge Liang in one fell swoop, and this opportunity was Zhuge Liang's general.
Before Zhuge Liang's death, Zhuge Liang ordered people to put seven grains of rice in their mouths and a bright lamp under their feet after their own death, so that they could hide the heavenly opportunity and make their own general stars not fall in the sky. Used to confuse Sima Yi and Jiang Wei to retreat in an orderly manner according to Zhuge Liang's strategy, placing the wooden statue of Zhuge Liang on the wheelchair that Zhuge Liang often sat in, and if Sima Yi came to chase, he would beat the flag and drum to fight. Sure enough, Sima Yi saw the Shu army retreating far away and rushed to chase after it, but when he saw "Zhuge Liang" in a wheelchair, he began to retreat, because in the middle of the speech, Sima Yi did not suffer a loss at zhuge Liang's hands. In this way, the Shu Han army retreated to the valley in an orderly manner, and the white flag was raised in the army. Sima Yi learned that the Shu army had withdrawn, and Sima Yi returned to the dynasty with a large army, and Sima Yi sighed: "It is really the wizards of the world."
In summary, Zhuge Liang, who struggled all his life for Shu Han, until the end of his life, was also considering the future of Shu Han, Zhuge Liang really achieved "bowing down and dying after death", but unfortunately, the lord of Shu Han wasted the painstaking efforts of Zhuge Liang's life and reused the eunuch Huang Hao, and Jiang Wei, the only top pillar of the late Shu Han Dynasty, had to stay away from the court because he was afraid of Huang Hao's power. When Sima Annihilated Shu, Liu Chan chose to surrender on his own initiative, and after surrendering, he left behind a faint talk of "happy here, not thinking about Shu".
