At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the flock of heroes chased after deer, and finally Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan divided the world and established the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu, and Wu respectively. Among the Three Kingdoms, shu Han was the weakest, so the earliest demise can be said to be expected. Liu Chan, the king of the Shu Han Dynasty, had a famous saying that has been passed down through the ages, "Here is happy, do not think of Shu", which was ridiculed by posterity. However, although the Later Lord was not happy to think about Shu, it did not mean that there were no loyal and righteous people among the Shu Han. In the battle to destroy Shu, there were ten fierce generals who rose up to resist and expressed their unswerving loyalty to Shu Han with their lives and blood. So who are these heroes? Let's take stock.
Ten: Jiang Bin
Probably the vast majority of people are unfamiliar with the name Jiang Bin, but his father is very famous, and he is Jiang Huan, a heavy minister of the Shu Han Dynasty. After Jiang Huan's death, Jiang Bin served as the general of Suiwu and was the defender of Seoul. After the Battle of Shu, he and Jiang Wei were forced to surrender to Zhong Hui. When Zhong Hui secretly formed a rebellion against Jiang Wei, but the incident triggered a mutiny, Jiang Bin died in the rebel army. In the "Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms, Biography of Jiang Huan", it is recorded: "(Jiang Bin) went to Chengdu with him and was killed by the rebel army. ”
Nine: Zhao Guang
Like Jiang Bin, Zhao Guang was not as famous as his father, who was the world-famous "Changsheng General" Zhao Yun. Zhao Guang was the second son of Zhao Yun, who served as a shu Han ya gatekeeper under Jiang Wei, and zhao Guang accompanied Jiang Wei in Tuntian with him. After the outbreak of the Battle of Shu, he fought against the Wei army with Jiang Wei, and eventually died on the battlefield, and Ma Ge was wrapped in a corpse. Although Zhao Guang was not as brave and good at war as his father Zhao Yun, he did not insult Zhao Yun's prestige in terms of loyalty to the country.
Eight: Zhang Zun
Zhang Zun was the grandson of Zhang Fei, the founding general of the Shu Han Dynasty, and the son of Zhang Bao. During the Battle of Shu, he was ordered to accompany Zhuge Zhan to defend against the Wei army. Although he was not as "ten thousand enemies" as his grandfather Zhang Fei, as Zhang Fei's grandson, his loyalty to the country was unquestionable, and he tried his last bit of strength and the last drop of blood for Shu Han.
Seven: Li Qiu
Li Qiu is also a strange name, and his grandparents have no reputation, but he has a famous uncle, the Anhan general Li Hui, who can also be regarded as a famous general. He served as the right governor of Yulin in shu Han, which was supposed to be in charge of the forbidden army, not a general who fought on the front line. However, Deng Ai smuggled across Yinping and came straight to Chengdu, the situation was critical, Liu Chan could only send part of the forbidden army in a panic, Li Qiu was in danger, and followed Zhuge Zhan to fight with Deng Aijun, and finally died in the battle. (The Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms records that He disciple Qiu, the right governor of Yulin, followed Zhuge Zhan to reject Ai, lin chen ordered, and died in Mianzhu.) ）
Six: Zhuge Zhan
Zhuge Zhan, Zhuge Liang's son in the battle to destroy Shu, when Deng Ai's army was directly approaching Chengdu, he was in danger and was given the order by Liu Chan, who had high hopes. Zhuge Zhan led his army to resist Deng Ai's army, but his mistake led to a retreat to Mianzhu, Deng Ai sent envoys to surrender, and Zhuge Zhan beheaded Mingzhi, so wei Shu's last battle, the Battle of Mianzhu, broke out.
Before the decisive battle, Zhuge Zhan said sadly: "I can't get rid of Huang Hao internally, I can't balance Jiang Wei externally, and I can't defend the country when I march." I have three sins, what face do I have to go back? In the battle, he led his army to repulse his opponent several times, but in the end he was defeated by the Wei army, and he died on the battlefield with his son Zhuge Shang, who was only thirty-seven years old at the time.
Although Zhuge Zhan was inferior to his father Zhuge Liang, he served the country to the death, and his loyalty could show the sun and the moon, and he did not insult his father who "bowed down and did his best, and died after death".
Five: Zhuge Shang
Zhuge Shang was Zhuge Zhan's eldest son and Zhuge Liang's grandson. At the time of the War of Annihilation of Shu, he was only seventeen years old, but for the rise and fall of the country, and in order not to dishonor the loyalty of his father, he resolutely faced a strong enemy with his father Zhuge Zhan, fought with him to the end, and finally sacrificed for the country with his father.
Four: Fu You
Fu You was the son of the famous Shu Han general Fu Wei, and his father Fu Tong fought to the death in order to give Liu Bei a decisive battle at the Battle of Yiling, and in the face of the persuasion of the general of the State of Wu, he broke his mouth and cursed, and finally fought to the death, which made people moved.
Compared with his father, Fu You did not hesitate to let go. During the Battle of Shu, Fu You defended Yang'an Pass, but his deputy general Jiang Shu secretly surrendered to Cao Wei. In the situation that the enemy army had already entered the pass and the general trend had gone, Fu You did not flinch, but fought bravely to kill the enemy until the soldiers were defeated and killed. This kind of loyalty and righteousness of his was admired even by the people of Wei.
Three: Zhang Yi
Zhang Yi (張翼), courtesy name Bogong, was one of the famous generals of the late Shu Han Dynasty, who participated in the Battle of Pingnan in shu han, and also accompanied Zhuge Liang and Jiang Wei on the northern expedition to Cao Wei many times, all the way to the left car to ride the general, which can be described as a great achievement. During the Battle of Shu, he accompanied Jiang Wei to defend against Zhong Hui at the Sword Pavilion. Later, after the fall of the Shu Han Dynasty, Zhang Yi, Jiang Wei and others surrendered to Zhong Hui. Just when Zhong Hui rebelled and caused a mutiny, he was killed by the rebels during the rebellion.
Two: Huang Chong
Huang Chong was the son of the famous Shu Han general Huang Quan. During the Battle of Yiling, Huang Quan was ordered to monitor Cao Wei's movements, but the way back was blocked by the Eastern Wu army and forced to surrender Cao Wei, while his original family remained in Shu Han, and Huang Chong was his son who remained in Shu Han.
Huang Chong, who served as Shang Shulang in the Shu Han Dynasty, accompanied Zhuge Zhan on a campaign against the Cao Wei general Deng Ai. Before the war, he repeatedly suggested that Zhuge Zhan occupy dangerous terrain and prevent the enemy from entering the plain, but Zhuge Zhan hesitated and did not listen to his advice, and Huang Chong, because zhuge Zhan's mistakes, wept bitterly, and finally died on the battlefield of Mianzhu.
Huang Chong, who inherited Huang Quan's military talents, but unlike his father, chose to defect to the enemy in desperation, even if zhuge Zhan was defeated because he did not listen to his advice, he not only did not flinch himself but also inspired his soldiers to fight together to the end, fighting and dying on this land he loved.
One: Jiang Wei
After Jiang Wei defected to Shu Han, he devoted himself to serving Shu Han, and after Zhuge Liang's death, he was the Northern Expedition Cao Wei, the most determined one in the Xingfu Han Dynasty, and had nine Northern Expeditions. When the Battle of Shu broke out, he did his best to get rid of the attacks of Deng Ai and Zhuge Xu successively, and then insisted on the Sword Pavilion to make it difficult for Zhong Hui's army to advance. However, he and his generals still held the front line, but the later lord Liu Chan surrendered. Filled with grief and indignation, he drew his sword and split the stone, "I am waiting for the death battle, why should I surrender first!" ”。
At this moment, the general trend of Shu Han had gone, but in Jiang Wei's heart, the idea of restoring the country was unswerving. He tricked Zhong Hui into surrendering, then used Zhong Hui's hand to eliminate Deng Ai, and then rebelled with Zhong Hui, but was still defeated and killed, this incident was called "one plan to eliminate three sages".
