Meng Yu (born and died unknown), the leader of the Southern Central region during the Three Kingdoms period, rebelled against the Shu Han dynasty in 225 AD, was pardoned after being captured by a large army led by Zhuge Liang, and surrendered, leaving behind the beautiful talk of "seven captures and seven columns", and then returned to Chengdu with Zhuge Liang to serve as a royal historian.
Zhuge Liang quelled the rebellion in Nanzhong and defeated Meng Yu, which was very tortuous and arduous, during which he paid a relatively large number of casualties and time costs, which had a considerable degree of loss of military money and grain of the Shu Han regime, and also greatly damaged Zhuge Liang's body and mind. It can be said that the Rebellion in South China was a war forced to fight shortly after the founding of the Shu Han, although there is not much ink in history, but it is a key battle in the rise and fall of the Shu Han, Meng Won a not-so-remarkable figure in the Three Kingdoms era, it is precisely he who dug a grave for the emerging Shu Han regime, why do you say so?

️ The South Central region is roughly located in today's Yunnan and Burma regions, the climate is humid and hot, and most of the Shu Han soldiers come from the Land of Jingxiang River and Shaanxi, and I have never seen such a harsh natural environment. Coupled with the many dense forests in the south and central regions, not only are there many poisonous snakes and beasts, but also poisonous pools of miasma are everywhere. Don't you know that the natural environment is comparable to a million male soldiers, how can it be won quickly, and the result of not being able to fight a quick battle is that the troops are tied down in this area for a long time, and there is no time to look north and east.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="02" data-track="7" > of heavy military attrition</h1>
The rebels in the south and central china guarded the countryside, the number of cultural terrain, and waited for work; on the contrary, the Shu army came from afar, its eyes were black, its life was not familiar, and it had become a tired division after thousands of miles. Moreover, the rebels relied on favorable terrain in the dark, the Shu army was vast and mighty in the bright place, the open gun was easy to hide from the dark arrow, and it was difficult to defend, coupled with the command of Meng Yue and Zhu Rong, who could both deceive people's minds and have extraordinary skills, and fought a guerrilla war with the imperial court, and the Shu army did not suffer losses, so the casualties caused to the Shu army were very considerable, and it was even more obvious for the Shu Han regime, which was already weak in military strength!
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="03" data-track="7" > huge consumption of money and food, Kong Ming was hurt</h1>
The southern central region is far from Chengdu, and the Shu land is notoriously rugged and difficult to travel, resulting in the elongation of the supply line, and it is inevitable that the people will lose money. Originally, the capital of the Central Plains was not thick, and then it was consumed by the civil war, and the money bag of the Shu Han was even more deflated. Moreover, the decisive victory of the Shu army was to burn the elite troops of the Southern Army---- the vine armor soldiers, and the raging fire took away tens of thousands of lives, after all, those were all the people of the Shu kingdom, although Zhuge Liang led the army to achieve military victory, but in the depths of his heart, he was extremely guilty and tormented by the civil war, Zhuge Liang's body and mind were seriously damaged by this battle, so that kong Ming had to use the method of seven star lamps to redeem the sins of that year in the Northern Expedition.
In 225 AD, when the Shu Han regime was thriving and full of ambition, the Rebellion of Nanzhong was like a basin of cold water poured on the Shu Han Dynasty, although it did not extinguish the Shu Han regime, but it made the Shu Han regime never flourish again, and the initiator of all this, the leader of the South Central ---- Meng.
