Today's Xiangyang City, Hubei Province, was a military stronghold that soldiers had to fight for during the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty. Therefore, Wei, Shu, and Wu all had Xiangyang celebrities. Relatively speaking, xiangyang celebrities who served the Shu Han Group had the most, and there were nine famous ministers in Xiangyang City alone. Among them, one is equally famous as Zhuge Liang, and the other is a famous general who has gone through three dynasties. The nine famous ministers in this article are not sorted, and are only briefly described in order of relevant historical materials.
The first Ponton. Pang Tong, Zi Shiyuan, an outstanding representative of Xiangyang's famous courtiers, was called "Fengyan" by the famous scholar Pang Degong at the end of the Han Dynasty, and was on a par with "Wolong" Zhuge Liang. When Pang Tong was a teenager, he was simple and unpretentious and not valued. Until he reached adulthood, Pang Tong met Sima Hui, a hermit of the late Han Dynasty who was good at understanding people, and gradually became famous, and was later hired by the county as Gong Cao, and from then on he became an official.
Pang Tong was from Eastern Wu in the early days, and although he was an official in Nan Commandery under Zhou Yu, his reputation was well-known in Jiangdong. When Pang Tong escorted Zhou Yu's body back to Wu, he was warmly welcomed by Eastern Wu's heavy ministers and famous soldiers Lu Ji and Gu Shao. After Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou, Pang Tong was attached to his account, but Pang Tong was not reused at first, and was only assigned to the post of concurrently serving as a county commander. Pang Tong was very disappointed in this, passively slackened off work, did not govern government affairs, and was dismissed by Liu Bei as a result. Under the advice of Lu Su and Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei reinstated Pang Tong and appointed him as a zhizhong practitioner, becoming one of the important strategists in the early days of the Shu Han clique.

When Pang Tong sacrificed his body, Pang Hong was still a minor, and Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and others remembered his deeds and gave many kinds of care in the process of Pang Hong's growth and career.

Third place: Pang Lin. Pang Lin is Pang Tong's younger brother. The record of Pang Lin in the Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms is very brief, only at the end of the "Biography of Pang Tong", with twenty or thirty words in one stroke, the reason is that Pang Lin failed to keep his reputation in the later period, and the defeat of the Zhenbei general Huang Quanbing to Wei.

During Zhuge Liang's reign, Yang Yi was heavily valued, but was in the same water and fire as Wei Yanshi. After Zhuge Liang's death, Yang Yi killed Wei Yan.
