introduction
During the Three Kingdoms period, Jiang Wei was definitely a tragic figure, he was a general in Tianshui County, Wei In his early years, he had to surrender to the Shu army after Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition. Zhuge Liang greatly appreciated Jiang Wei, and he was also promoted and reused in various ways, and Jiang Wei did not live up to Zhuge Liang's high hopes, and established many meritorious achievements for Shu Han during Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition.
After the deaths of Zhuge Liang, Jiang Wei and others, Jiang Wei became a great general of the Shu Han Dynasty, and took charge of the soldiers and horses to open the northern expedition against Cao Wei. During Zhuge Liang's reign, a total of five Northern Expeditions were carried out. When Jiang Wei was in charge of the Shu Han soldiers and horses, he surpassed Zhuge Liang in the number of northern expeditions, as many as 11 times.
Jiang Wei's many northern expeditions did not bring fundamental changes to the Shu Han, and he was also labeled as a "poor soldier". Because of the situation faced by Shu Han, Jiang Wei knew that if he did not take the initiative to go north and wait for the inevitable destruction of Shu Han, he inherited Zhuge Liang's legacy and resolved to "restore the Han Room" and repay Zhuge Liang's kindness.
Jiang Weiyi plotted to harm the three sages
In 263, Sima Zhao, who had already controlled Cao Wei's military power, began his road to Shu, and he sent the three armies of Deng Ai, Zhong Hui, and Zhuge Xu to attack the Shu state. Originally, the State of Shu could rely on its geographical advantages to block the Wei army layer by layer, and when the Wei army ran out of grain and grass and the morale was low, it would withdraw.
However, as Deng Ai led a partial division to smuggle through Yinping, Jiang Wei, who was far away in the Sword Pavilion to resist Zhong Hui's army, could not take care of him head-on. Coupled with Liu Chan's weakness and incompetence, under Deng Ai's attack, Liu Chan actually surrendered Kaesong. After Liu Chan surrendered, at the behest of Deng Ai, Jiang Wei surrendered to Deng Aijun.
At this time, although Jiang Wei felt powerless, he quickly came up with a plan, he planned to use Zhong Hui to help Shu Han restore the country. Jiang Wei's army did not follow Liu Chan's wishes to surrender to Deng Aijun, but surrendered to Zhong Hui, who was blocked by himself from the Sword Pavilion.
After making contact with Zhong Hui, Jiang Wei saw that Zhong Hui had a different heart, which happened to be used by Jiang Wei. Jiang Wei first reminded Zhong Huigong gao zhen lord to let him learn Fan Li, and reminded him of the literary genre and the fate of Han Xin. Zhong Hui will say that he is greedy for power, but he will not be slaughtered like Wen Zhong and Han Xin.
Eventually, at the instigation of Jiang Wei, Zhong Hui planned to establish himself as king in Shuzhong as the second Liu Bei. How could Jiang Wei help Zhong Hui to become king in Chengdu, his plan was more "poisonous" than Zhong Hui, first using Zhong Hui to kill all the generals of the State of Wei, and then trying to kill Zhong Hui himself, and finally achieving the purpose of "returning Shu Zuo".
Don't look at this small plan, Jiang Wei's plan not only killed Zhong Hui and Deng Ai, two heroes who destroyed Shu, but also killed by the Wei army because of the failure of the plan.
If Zhong Hui wanted to stand on his own in Chengdu, he first had to get rid of his opponent Deng Ai, Zhong Hui first falsely accused Deng Ai of rebellion, and Sima Zhao asked Zhong to take Deng Ai's father and son to Luoyang, and Deng Ai's father and son were killed in the middle of the road. After getting rid of Deng Ai's father and son, he heard that Sima Zhao personally led the army to Chang'an, and in order to avoid the long night, Zhong hui prepared to rebel.
Unexpectedly, Zhong Hui's rebellion was unanimously opposed by the Wei generals, and Jiang Wei urged Zhong Hui to kill all Wei generals to avoid changes. At this critical moment, Zhong Hui hesitated, so that someone later sent a message to spread the news of Zhong Hui's rebellion throughout the barracks.
One of Hu Lie's rumors made Zhong Hui die without a place to die, and he spread rumors in the army that Zhong Hui had dug a big pit and planned to kill all the generals who disobeyed him. In the end, zhonghui's rebellion was leaked in advance, and many generals of the Wei army were very angry, not only killing Zhong Hui, but also not sparing Jiang Wei.
After Jiang Wei was killed, Wei Jun still did not understand the hatred and cut Jiang Wei's abdomen and took his gall. It is rumored that Jiang Wei's boldness is like a fight, and it is not known whether it is true or not.
Why did Wei Jun treat Jiang Wei so cruelly
It is reasonable to say that Jiang Wei was half a Wei person, and before Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition, Jiang Wei had been living in the territory under the control of the State of Wei, but later due to the compulsion of the situation, he submitted to Shu Han and was impressed by Zhuge Liang's personal charm. After Jiang Wei's plan to "restore Shu Zuo" failed, the Wei army retaliated against him madly, why did the Wei army hate him so much?
In fact, all this can not blame Wei Jun, Jiang Wei almost killed many Wei Army generals. If considered from the perspective of the Wei soldiers, Jiang Wei's death was indeed deserved.
First of all, although Jiang Wei was once a Wei state, after he took charge of the Shu Han military power, he launched eleven northern expeditions against the State of Wei, causing serious casualties to the military and people of the State of Wei, and this debt naturally came to Jiang Wei's head. In fact, this alone is good, after all, the two armies are fighting each other as their masters, and although Jiang Wei was once a Wei national, he was also the commander of the Shu army, and naturally served the Shu state.
If this matter were concerned, Wei Jun would probably not have treated Jiang Wei so cruelly, and the main reason for Jiang Wei's misery was that he directly participated in the plot of Zhong Hui's rebellion. It is precisely because of Jiang Wei's various instigations and plots that Zhong will be led by him into a road of no return.
Zhong hui rebelled, and his generals and soldiers would also be unlucky, because during the Three Kingdoms period, the rebellion of the generals outside the country would affect their wives and children at home, and if Zhong hui rebelled, the wives and daughters of his soldiers in the Wei state would suffer, and this phenomenon Wei Jun naturally did not want to see.
What's more, Jiang Wei also asked Zhong Hui to kill the generals who held official positions above the rank of Governor of Yamen, and when the Wei generals learned about it, the infinite anger in their hearts had no place to be sprinkled, and in the end they could only take Jiang Wei to open the knife, killing Jiang Wei to relieve the hatred in the hearts of the Wei generals.
epilogue
Jiang Wei's loyalty to Shu Han, he is also a very capable commander, as an opponent Deng Ai also highly praised Jiang Wei: "Jiang Wei, Xiong'er also." However, the number of days in Shu Han was so great, Jiang Wei wanted to rely on one of his own strategies to "restore Shu Zuo", and in the general environment at that time, the hope was very slim.
Jiang Wei shed the last drop of blood for Shu Han, and he was the last loyal servant of Shu Han. However, a plan to harm the three sages, although the opponent Deng Aizhonghui was eliminated, but Jiang Wei's own fate was also very miserable, which was sighing.
