During the Three Kingdoms period, there were constant disputes between the major political powers, and during that period, many outstanding figures also appeared, some of whom were super strong in combat effectiveness and made meritorious achievements on the battlefield, and some of whom were polite in humanity and temperament, and with their own wisdom and strategy, commanded the soldiers to easily win victories. Stories about these people have also survived.
It still appears on the screen today, so that we can enjoy it in modern times. The two very famous strategists in the Three Kingdoms period should be counted Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi, both of them each assisted by a lord, both of them are very good, the confrontation between each other also seems to be fascinating, once Zhuge Liang used the empty city plan to deceive the other party, and before the other party died, he said a word, so that our later people understand that things are not so simple.
Mountain
Liu Bei had a good reputation at first, he had no land and no troops in his hands, and he did not have a lot of money, but he had high ambitions, and he worshiped with two brothers, who had excellent combat effectiveness, and there was a lack of strategists around, so he began to recruit sages everywhere, and at that time he found a person first, but this person and his mother were under house arrest by Cao Cao, and he had no choice but to be loyal to Cao Cao, and before leaving, he gave Liu Bei a suggestion, asking him to find Mr. Wolong to ask him to come out of the mountain. Liu Bei later went to visit and repeatedly invited the two to talk freely in front of the hut.
Liu Bei saw that Mr. Liu was very knowledgeable, had his own judgment on the overall situation of the country, and felt that the other party was an excellent politician and a strategist, and if he had his assistance by his side, there would inevitably be a world of Shu in the future. After inviting him out of the mountain, Zhuge Liang conscientiously assisted each other after leaving the mountain, and the relationship between the two was very close.
In ancient times, the battle on the battlefield was the number of soldiers and the combat effectiveness of soldiers, and after Zhuge Liang left the mountain, he met a fierce general of Cao Cao at that time, who was brave and good at fighting, leading an army of 100,000 to attack Liu Bei. Zhuge Liang did not panic after seeing this situation, he made a plan to set up an ambush, sent a general to lure the other side into the encirclement, and then ambushed the soldiers on both sides and then jumped out to besiege this person, so that the other side's 100,000 troops were defeated.
Through this battle, Zhuge Liang also showed his strength. In the years that followed, he used tactics many times on the battlefield, and Cao Cao suffered many losses under his hands, and even nearly killed. Later, Liu Bei's forces came from scratch and squeezed into one of the Three Kingdoms.
Ingenious
After Liu Bei's death, Zhuge Liang led the Army to the Northern Expedition, which was very smooth at first, but then there were problems, he sent his subordinates to guard a dangerous place in ma Mo Town, which was very important but was lost by it, this position was occupied by the enemy, the situation of the Northern Expedition changed greatly, and Zhuge Liang had no choice but to announce the withdrawal of his troops. He himself stayed in the rear to arrange things, but he did not expect to be pursued by the Wei army, and at this time the leader of the army was Sima Yi, who had only a few thousand men and horses around him at that time, facing the 150,000 troops of the Wei state, and had no resistance.
At this time, if you choose to escape, it is difficult to escape the pursuit of the other party, plus at that time Zhuge Liang was also relatively old, plagued by illness, and could not run fast, helplessly he came up with a brilliant plan.
Directly open the city gate where the city is located, and then hide all the flags in the city, ordering everyone in the city not to make a loud noise, and then he took two boys to stand on the top of the city tower to burn incense and bathe, played the guqin, the two boys behind him, one with a fan, one holding a sword, looked very calm, and standing outside the city can also see the inside of the open city, only some old people and children sprinkled water on the street, Sima Yi saw this scene, thinking that there must be an ambush in the other city, dare not rush to attack, Even choosing to retreat, Zhuge Liang successfully used this strategy to buy time for the Shu army, and he also successfully escaped to heaven.
A dying word
These two were very good strategists during the Three Kingdoms period, and at that time, an empty city plan scared Sima Yi into retreat, which also made it difficult for many descendants who loved him to accept, and they always felt that this matter was too coincidental, unlike Sima Yi's style, so they also read a lot of books and wanted to prove their point of view.
Finally, finding the truth found in the Book of Jin, Sima Yi once said a sentence before his death: He said that I had served the State of Wei for many years, and had achieved such a high position as Taifu, which was the highest position among the courtiers, and everyone suspected that I had two hearts for the Wei royal family, and I had always been very afraid.
This remark shows that he was not so comfortable in wei, and although he held a military power and worshiped a high position, he was always questioned by others and even wanted to replace it.
Among the Three Kingdoms at that time, his biggest opponent was Zhuge Liang, and the biggest opponent of the State of Wei was the State of Shu, at that time Liu Bei had died, and only Zhuge Liang was left to support the State of Shu, if in this pursuit he saw through the other party's plan, captured it, or even killed it.
There was no more Zhuge Liang in the Shu Kingdom, and the Shu Kingdom was no longer the target of the Wei State, without this big trouble, Sima Yi would not be of much use in the Wei Kingdom, and only by keeping Zhuge Liang to ensure that the Shu Kingdom continued to remain, he could always hold the military power and finally exert his ambitions.
