Zhuge Liang's first Northern Expedition entrusted Ma Ji with a heavy responsibility, who else but him could guard the street pavilion?

In the course of Zhuge Liang's first Northern Expedition, the street pavilion was a strategic place, although there were many elephants that could be used under Zhuge Liang's hands at that time, but this time for this fortress land, Zhuge Liang's appointee was Ma Ji. On the one hand, it is because the relationship between the two people is relatively good in private, and on the other hand, Ma Ji can be regarded as Zhuge Liang's proud protégé. But Ma Ji, who had wanted to be entrusted with a heavy responsibility, finally let Zhuge Liang lose a defeat in this Northern Expedition. This makes people puzzled, those generals under Zhuge Liang's hands, who in the end can guard the street kiosk?

It's imperative

In the course of this first Northern Expedition, Zhuge Liang properly gained the upper hand. Moreover, all kinds of uncontrollable factors had been predicted before the troops were dispatched, and the troops of the Shu Han were also recuperating and recuperating, and they were greatly adjusted and buffered. Although the Battle of Yiling brought great sorrow to the Shu Han dynasty, when Zhuge Liang launched the First Northern Expedition, the troops and other aspects were already much stronger than before.

On the other hand, on Cao Wei's side, larger cracks continued to appear in the civil unrest. Cao Rui had just sat on the dragon chair, and at this moment, Sima Yi was sitting on a mountain watching the tiger fight. Under such a favorable time and place, Shu Han seems to have occupied all the advantages. According to Zhuge Liang's initial prediction, once the Northern Expedition was successful, many of Cao Yu's cities would be owned by Shu Han, and it would no longer be a distant dream to lead thousands of troops and horses into Chang'an.

Talents

There are many generals on the Shu Han side, such as the great general Zhao Yun, who has experienced hundreds of battles, Wei Yan, who is famous and powerful, and Jiang Wei, who has just surrendered. People like these were all perfectly capable of guarding the kiosks at the time. If Zhuge Liang had sent Zhao Yun to garrison at that time, the probability of success was also relatively large. Although Zhao Yun was already a little old at that time, Zhuge Liang also had some concerns, after all, the prestige of his youth was indeed relatively large, in order to keep such a prestige alive, so Zhuge Liang did not appoint Zhao Yun at that time.

Although Wei Yan was very capable, it seemed that he had never been recognized by Zhuge Liang, let alone reused. After all, when Wei Yan was taken over by Shu Han at that time, Zhuge Liang directly stated that this person was bound to rebel or cause rebellion in the future.

After all, at this time, Jiang Wei had just surrendered, even if Jiang Wei had three heads and six arms, Zhuge Liang could not give him this kind of crucial place to garrison, because people's hearts were separated, what if he turned against him?

epilogue

Under this pre-thought arrangement, Zhuge Liang finally sent his own proud protégé Ma Ji, but who would have thought that Ma Ji had actually chosen the place to camp on the mountain, which was surrounded by Cao Wei's army, and the street pavilion was lost, thus causing an irreparable tragedy.
