At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were three kingdoms, and many heroes appeared in the chaotic world. As a history with war as the main theme, the most talked about should be the military generals on the battlefield, such as Guan Yu and Zhao Yun. However, it is the military divisions on the battlefield that really determine the victory or defeat, and if you want to say that the most famous military divisions in the Three Kingdoms era are still Zhuge Liang. For Zhuge Liang, everyone will not be too strange, Zhuge Liang was originally a person from Xuzhou Langya Yangdu. In his early years, he traveled to Jingzhou with his uncle Zhuge Xuan, and after the death of his uncle Zhuge Xuan, Zhuge Liang lived in seclusion in the Longzhong area. It was not until 207 AD that Liu Beisan invited Zhuge Liang under Gu Maolu. Just because he was impressed by Liu Bei's Three Gu Maolu, he focused his whole life on the revival of the Han Room. Some people say that if Zhuge Liang died a few years later, the Shu kingdom would be able to unify the three kingdoms under his leadership, but where is there so much? Zhuge Liang, under years of hard work and effort, accumulated fatigue and illness, and finally died, and a generation of talents fell, which is really regrettable!
The Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms records: "In the second year of the Qinglong Dynasty, Zhuge Liang came out of the Xie valley and landed in Lankeng ... In August of his year, Liang fell ill and died in the army at the age of fifty-four. That is to say, Zhuge Liang died of illness, and overwork is one of the reasons, but what strange disease did Zhuge Liang get? The Seven Star Array could not continue to live, and the name of the disease made people's backs chill.
The Seven Star Array is the formation used by Zhuge Liang to continue his life when he was terminally ill in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but the historical records only record Zhuge Liang's throat before he swallowed his breath, and after arranging all the aftermath, he slowly closed his eyes and passed away, and later generations speculated about several diseases that Zhuge Liang had acquired.
First, Zhuge Liang was unfortunately infected with schistosomiasis. This disease just listens to the name and makes people's backs chill. Everyone knows that this is a terrible disease of schistosomiasis infection that destroys the function of the body and causes death, schistosomiasis is more common in the south, and at that time Zhuge Liang had led troops to the south many times to go deep into the barren land, and the possibility of contracting schistosomiasis was quite large. If Zhuge Liang suffers from this disease, it may be accidentally infected when he crusades mengyu, there was no internal medicine surgery and no insect medicine in ancient times, this disease is difficult to cure, it may be schistosomiasis that eats away at Zhuge Liang's life expectancy little by little.
The second type: stomach disease. Zhuge Liang's early death is likely to be suffering from diseases such as stomach cancer. According to historical records, in Zhuge Liang's later years, Sima Yiyou once asked him about his diet, but the answer was not more than a few liters. This proves that Zhuge Liang's daily diet is very small, coupled with irregular eating habits, and the huge pressure on the body, it is most likely to suffer from stomach diseases.
The third is lung diseases, including pneumonia, tuberculosis, etc., at that time there was no corresponding antibiotic, so the number of people who died of tuberculosis in ancient times was quite high, and those who suffered from lung disease were generally old people with weak resistance, Zhuge Liang worked day and night in the military camp, coupled with high age, it was inevitable that he would be contaminated with bacteria.
The most common coughing up blood disease is usually a disease of the respiratory system, especially the problems in the lungs, so it is speculated that Zhuge Liang died because of common lung infection bacteria.
