When Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountain, Sima Hui said 10 words, and later the words were magical
Introduction: At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were many hermits and high-ranking people, such as Nanhua Laoxian, who was a cultivator, and when Zhang Jiao, a fallen scholar, went up to the mountain to collect medicine, he accidentally met Nanhua Laoxian, so Lao Xian taught him the Taiping Technique. After Zhang Jiao became a student, he could call the wind and rain to scatter beans and become a soldier, which set off the Yellow Turban Uprising in various regions of the country. There is also Sima Hui, the water mirror gentleman, who was determined to serve the country when he was young, but found that the emperor did not act and the civil and military officials would only fight for power and profit, and there were very few people who did practical things. Discouraged, he returned to Jingzhou to open a college dedicated to cultivating young talents, hoping that they could change the country.
Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, Xu Shu, and Cui Zhouping were the same batch of students of Mr. Shui Jing, and Sima Hui specially gave the title of "Wolong, Fengchi" to the two best students, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong. Liu Bei learned the role of a top military division after he was assisted by Xu Shu, and from then on he began to attach importance to the position of military division. Later, Xu Shu was poached by Cao Cao's design, and before leaving, he recommended Zhuge Liang to Liu Bei, asking Liu Bei to get Zhuge Liang's help, because Zhuge Liang's talent was ten times that of him, so Liu Beisan Gu Maolu asked Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountain.
When Sima Hui learned that Zhuge Liang had been invited down the mountain by Liu Bei, he sighed and said a word: "Although Kong Ming has his master, he must not be at the right time." Why did Sima Hui say that? It turned out that Sima Hui had studied Liu Bei, and he knew that Liu Bei had already emerged in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, but at that time he did not have a detailed plan, nor did he have a deep understanding of the world, more for the sake of fighting, eating, and making meritorious achievements.
We can see that Liu Bei did not know enough, although he killed many enemies and laid down a lot of territory, he did not defend these foundations very well. Cao Cao, who was at the same time as him, was not like this, Cao Cao attached great importance to talent and territory, and the first thing he did after each time he laid a piece of land was to raid local talents and use their talents to help him govern this place, so Cao Cao's territory became bigger and bigger, and now he has become the strongest prince in the world, and he has already had the strength to unify the world. Although Liu Bei was already aware of his problem, in the face of Cao Cao's absolute strength, Zhuge Liang could not change the outcome of Liu Bei's clique no matter how much he tossed.
Zhuge Liang may not have understood this, but when he first came out of the mountains, he was full of spirit, interrupting Cao Cao's process of unifying the world with a battle of Chibi, and then helping Liu Bei to take Jingzhou, Yizhou, and Hanzhong, successfully prompting Liu Bei to divide the world. Liu Bei succeeded Zhuge Liang after the incident, he originally thought that he could restore the Han Dynasty through the Northern Expedition, but by this time Cao Wei already had a population of 5 million and an army of 400,000, while the Shu Han only had 950,000 people and 100,000 troops. In such a disparity in contrast, Zhuge Liang's heart was exhausted, and finally he died of illness in Wuzhangyuan. And Shu Han was also annihilated by Cao Wei after Zhuge Liang's illness, and Sima Hui's 10 words were verified.
??
Conclusion: In fact, in addition to the competition of talents, the competition of a country also has the population of the territory, as well as the scientific and technological and war potential of a country. At that time, Cao Wei's advantage was more than that of shu Han and Eastern Wu, and if Zhuge Liang had not gone out of the mountains, it would only be a matter of time before Cao Cao annexed Jiangdong after taking Jingzhou, and then the unification of the world would be realized in Cao Cao's hands, and Zhuge Liang's greatest ability was to interrupt the process of unifying the world.
