According to the Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms, Sima Zhao of the State of Wei launched the Shu-Han War. The battle ended very quickly, and it took only two months to take the Shu Kingdom. One of them is worth noting, that is, when Deng Ai smuggled across Yinping, there was a general in the Shu state who wanted to go to Chengdu to rescue, but Liu Chan thought that he would not lose his hand and reject this person's proposal, if Liu Chan listened to this person's advice at that time, then when the reinforcements of the State of Wu arrived, the State of Shu would not perish. Who is this person? He was one of the generals that Zhuge Liang had left for Liu Chan, Huo Ge.
Huo Ge was Huo Jun's son, and his father made great contributions when Liu Bei seized Yizhou. Coupled with the fact that his own talents were reused by Zhuge Liang. During the Northern Expedition of the Shu Kingdom, he followed Zhuge Liang in the Northern Expedition. At the end of the Three Kingdoms period, Huo Ge held several important positions in the Shu state.
After Zhuge Liang's death, he was promoted to the rank of Yellow Gate Attendant and became the most important official in the Shu kingdom. Because Huo Ge was the general left by Zhuge Liang, Liu Chan trusted him very much and even asked him to assist his son. Later, there was a rebellion in Yongchang County, the Shu state, and Huo Ge was ordered to go to Yongchang to be a taishou. So Hogo took Yongchang as the center and commanded the forces of the six counties.
In 263, the Sima family completely seized power in the State of Wei, and after the power was stabilized, Sima Zhao began the Shu-Han War. At the same time that the State of Wei sent troops out, Huo Ge knew the news that Deng Ai was going to attack the State of Shu, and he was very worried about the State of Shu, and the troops were on the front line and there was no one to guard Chengdu, so he wanted to lead the army to Chengdu to escort him.
However, Liu Chan was too confident, thinking that Jiang Wei in front of him could definitely guard Deng Ai and Zhong Hui. But the fact is that Deng Ai went around from Yinping and went straight to Chengdu. Liu Chan was also very cowardly, and surrendered before he could fight with Deng Ai and Zhong Hui's army.
