Let's first understand the door valve system at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the door valve clan controls the leading power in politics, economy, culture and other fields, up to the court, down to the countryside, the door valve clan has a strong right to speak, want to enter the court, you have to rely on the recommendation of the door valve clan, to put it bluntly, you want political resources You have to have the support of the door valve clan, although Liu Bei claims to be a descendant of the Han family, but in the eyes of the clan magnate is a straw shoe seller, because you do not have the political resources of the clan behind you, This is also the fundamental reason why Liu Bei ran around to rely on the bosses in the early stages, until Liu Bei met a key figure Fazheng, and with the support of Fazheng, he was supported by the Yizhou Group behind him, which made Liu Bei have a base camp.
Before Liu Bei had his own territory, although Zhuge Liang had political means, but his boss had no political resources, but also powerless, just like a small African country to sanction the United States of America at the United Nations, everyone felt that it was a joke, and later after Liu Bei entered Shu, there was a problem in the strategic development direction of the Shu State, which led to Liu Bei's death, Zhuge Liang could only attack and defend in order to save Shu Land, and eventually died on the road of the Northern Expedition. Secondly, the economic foundation determines the superstructure, and the time of Liu Bei's rise determines that Ji Han's territory is limited, and there is a lack of time to consolidate the basic disk, which led to the Jingzhou army collapsing at the time of Amun's sneak attack, and the lack of a stable and sufficient basic disk determined that the Ji Han fault tolerance rate was low, which led to the fact that after the loss of Jingzhou, ji Han's unification of the world was basically impossible; lack of people, lack of money, lack of grain, unless the Central Plains became a pot of porridge, otherwise there was no chance.
Geographically, during the two Han Dynasties, there were many earthquakes along the Qinling Mountains in Central Han, and the terrain around Yinping in Wudu changed, resulting in a great increase in the difficulty of entering and leaving the Central Plains, and by the time of Zhuge Chengxiang's Northern Expedition, it was much more difficult to transport grain and transport troops than when Emperor Gao attacked the Three Qins, and the objective reasons were not transferred by the will of the people, not a problem of one or two people, whether it was Liu Bei or Liu Chan, who could not assist in unifying the world. First of all, Zhuge Liang's own reasons, Zhuge Liang in order to repay Liu Bei's kindness, painstakingly bowed down, did everything himself, although it was touching, but such a desperate work, that is, a model worker, and finally his body collapsed, and finally Sima Yi said: "Kong Ming eats less and is annoyed, how can it be long?" "Zhuge Liang is not a qualified leader, a qualified leader knows how to delegate power, knows people and is good at taking responsibility, has the insight to discover talents, creates opportunities to promote talents, finds opportunities to train talents, Ma Moben is a talent, equivalent to a senior staff officer of military advisers, and the strategies given to Zhuge Liang's staff officers in peacetime are also very insightful, and it is even more worthy of the mission to send an envoy to Eastern Wu. But because of the lack of exercise, it has always been a piece of paper.
Finally lost the kiosk. And Zhuge Liang did not give him a chance, directly to a "tears to cut the horse". Wei Yan was also a personal talent, and during the Shu and Han dynasties, he guarded one side alone and governed the army strictly. The tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command have always been the elite of Shu Han, and just because Zhuge Liang is not accustomed to him, he has always said that he has anti-bones, and even when he is dying, he has not forgotten to arrange for people to get rid of Wei Yan. Moreover, the general trend I am talking about is the general trend of economic and cultural talents, Cao Cao blackmailed the Heavenly Son to order the princes, controlled the cultural source of the whole world, the source of financial resources, the complete number of culture and weapons, the great power, the tolerance rate is also large, we look at Cao Cao's team of strategists, each of them is more and more famous, Jia Xu, Xu You, Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Yang Xiu, Sima Yi, and so on, these powerful literati are on Cao Cao's side, constituting his powerful think tank team.
Moreover, behind them, quite a few of them actually represented the Haoqiang family at that time, the famous and prestigious families, the super martial generals of the same period, Xu Chu, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Huan, Yu Ban, Dianwei, Zhang Guo, Cao Ren, Manchu (no order) and so on, countless of them, constituting a powerful military team of Cao Wei. Cao Wei, to be precise, the northern regime is waiting for the unification of the world, as long as the helmsman of the northern regime is not dimwitted, this momentum will be in his hands at any time, but Shu Han can not do it, he can only fight, if we have God's perspective, Eastern Wu and Shu Han want to really win cao Wei, can only always unite, and in a peaceful state without internal friction to complete reunification, north and south confrontation, this is a chance. But they had to compete with each other for resources, and the game was basically unsolvable. The Sima brothers said that compared to Cao Pi, it was still a little worse, and it was precisely like this that it was particularly zhuge liangniu, Shu Han was the weakest of the three kingdoms, but he was able to pacify the surroundings, cut the most powerful Wei, Zhuge Liang was eager to achieve success, do things, and want to be fast.
In order to realize the ideal of "Zhongxing Han", he was eager to achieve success, and he fought for years, so that the national strength had no time to recover. Li Yan was different from his political views, and Sima Yi's divisive plan was also secretly in line with his wishes, which caused the Shu army to stop marching when it was preparing to march in a high-pitched manner, and returned to Chengdu to meet Liu Chan to dispel his doubts, saying that it was fun, such a famous scholar in the Three Kingdoms period, You Heng, provoked Cao Cao to die when he was unhappy, which actually reflected an essence, Cao Wei was really talented, killing a few talented people was not a matter, the famous Seven Sons of Jian'an, except for Kong Rong, all the others were people of the Cao family.
In the Battle of Fancheng, Guan Yu fought Cao Ren, Pound De, Yu Ban, Xu Huang, and Man Yu, on the one hand, he did witness Guan Yu's strength, on the other hand, it can also be fully seen that the Shu Han generals were difficult to support, the Shu Han three-point army line, there was only one place that could fight, and Cao Wei was a famous general like a cloud, and they could fight alone, but they could fight in groups, and the collective wisdom and strength also made their fault tolerance rate very high, which is why Guan Yu beat Cao Ren to run, and when he was a thousand gunshot, heeded the advice to stick to it. Therefore, the comprehensive situation is that the entire north has strong financial resources, a large population, and can always firmly lock in the general trend of the world, Liu Bei's account, to say that there are really few talents, almost only one Zhuge Liang in Wen, although there have been Pang Tong, Jian Yong, these people, but their role is indeed limited, Zhuge Liang used troops to follow the rules, the soldiers have always paid attention to the combination of "Qizheng", from the point of view of the fact that the soldiers went out of Qishan several times without success, this kind of flat march, the loss of money and grain is very large, which is for the Shu Han who established the regime not long ago. Overburdened.
Wei Yan suggested that the surprise soldiers take the Meridian Valley, and the plan of the soldiers to point directly at Chang'an City was regarded by Zhuge Liang as adventurism, Sima Yi thought that if the Shu army surprised the Meridian Valley, the Wei army must be defeated, and it was estimated that half of the Central Plains would be lost, just imagine, hundreds of thousands of troops followed the rules of the attack of one city and one city, and when it reached Luoyang, people were also old, and grain and grass were a big problem, and Zhuge Liang's several futile efforts were all due to grain and grass. In fact, the Shu kingdom also has a little chance to unify the world, that is, if Liu Bei can defeat the State of Wu, rectify the Northern Expedition for a few years, it may be really a bit of a drama, but unfortunately, with the battle of Yiling, a fire is all gone, a state to Kyushu, how do you fight? You just two sets, the opponent has been six gods, and then Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition is knowingly against the sky, carrying the Shu kingdom forward for more than ten years has been very remarkable, replacing Zhuge Liang with other people in the Martial Temple, I feel that it will not be better than Zhuge Liang, Shu Jianxing in the first year of 223, 43 years old Liu Bei defeated the White Emperor City, entrusted to Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang is too clever, the ability of the lord can not be greater than the lord, once the lord is powerful, all he has is the power minister to help him to win, the power minister is too smart will cause the lord to rebound, do not doubt, this is the heart technique, if the lord does not have the heart skill, there will be no one to assist, of course, the power minister will have the corresponding suppression of the power lord, and Zhuge Liang is also smart enough, feel his own problems, but also will try to avoid, but also save a death to disappear the end! Zhuge Liang wanted Liu Bei to copy Liu Bang's path, but ignored Liu Bei's starting point and the changes in the environment in which he competed for the world. In fact, it is somewhat subjective dogmatic meaning, not to mention that the three masters of the Han Dynasty belong to the government, the army, and the team is neat, Liu Bei's team has always been in a state of incomplete team, the general environment is not good, the microclimate is unstable, so it is futile, and the other Jiang Huan Fei Yi Dong Yun Fazheng, these people can not form a strong group of strategists like Jia Xu Xunyu, the role is not obvious, or to be precise, there is no core skill, enough to assist Liu Bei to compete for the world.
In addition to Guan Zhang Zhao Ma Huang, there are few other fierce people, there is a strong comprehensive strength and Cao Wei general fighting, the speech says that there is no general Liao in Shu to become a pioneer, it is not simply exaggerated, Shu Han people are really one less, without, can not find the same type, the same ability to supplement. But Cao Wei is different, their civilian and military generals will be endless, even the blue is better than the blue, the situation in Eastern Wu is similar to that of Shu Han, which also creates a big fact, Shu Han and Eastern Wu can not afford to drag, a drag of soldiers will be broken, the economy is also crotch.
Finally, this is mainly a matter of cooperation, Zhuge Liang from Liu Bei's account to put his position in the position of cooperation with Liu Bei, then in Liu Bei's team there will be two factions out, thus dividing the cohesion of this team, in addition, Liu Bei this person only knows to stimulate the morale of the team with emotional righteousness, so that the morale of the team is weak, Liu Bei himself from the heroic spirit and black houxue can not form a leadership charm, but make the team more like a family of parents short, can not form a long-term and firm belief And Zhuge Liang, or Liu Bei, the two have a weak grasp of the inner personnel's mental aspect!
