Chapter 484 Zhuge Liang's Death at Wuzhangyuan
Chapter 484 Zhuge Liang's Death at Wuzhangyuan
At this moment, after posting the comment, Liu Xiu's brows were furrowed with sorrow, and a sense of helplessness arose in his heart.
He has now accepted the fact that the Han dynasty is gone, and he is not the only one who understands that the possibility of Shu Han's Northern Expedition is slim!
The Mandate of Heaven no longer protects the Han Dynasty, but what about Liu Bei's son—doing absolutely nothing?
Wouldn't this exhaust Zhuge Liang to death?!
……
This is the timeline of the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
Sun Ce closed his eyes, clenched his fist and then relaxed it. He didn't know how to face his good younger brother!
Should we beat him up or scold him? His father followed Yuan Shu, often serving as the vanguard, advancing straight towards Luoyang!
Even he, with his reputation for being upright and honest, never expected that Sun Quan's actions would lead to him being called a "Jiangdong rat"!
But! Why did Gongjin die so young? If I had known, I should have advised him to take better care of his health!
Sun Quan, who was suddenly beaten up by his own brother: ???? ? ?
Zhou Yu, suddenly receiving frequent attention from Sun Ce: ( ˙-˙ )?!
……
Back to the live broadcast room.
"Ma Su's failure came at a price, which is why there is the story of Zhuge Liang executing Ma Su with tears in his eyes."
"But in reality, the gap between Cao Wei and Shu Han was enormous."
"To turn the tide, unless something like Liu Xiu's founding of the Eastern Han Dynasty happens, a giant meteorite will hit the other side."
Wan Chaozhongren: It's unlikely; history is constantly changing.
"Subsequently, due to Shu Han's northern expeditions, Cao Wei took notice of the Longxi region and strengthened its defenses there."
"After that, Cao Rui and Sun Quan fought a war, and Zhuge Liang continued to attack Cao Wei on the grounds that 'the Han and the traitors cannot coexist, and the royal cause cannot be achieved by partial peace'."
"At this time, Shu Han had lost a number of elite troops and talents. Even in this predicament, Zhuge Liang still managed to launch a counterattack. Overall, both sides had experienced victories and defeats."
"In 229 AD, Cao Wei was ready to overturn the table. Every day, our neighbor Shu Han was chasing after us and attacking us! After all, we obtained our kingdom through legitimate abdication, not by stealing it!"
"Therefore, Cao Wei decided to attack Shu, and the main people in charge were Cao Zhen and Sima Yi."
There is a poem in Shu that says: "The road to Shu is more difficult than ascending to heaven." This shows that it was not easy for Cao Cao's army to conquer Shu by taking the plank road. In addition, they did not check the weather before they set out, and then the heavens rained heavily for more than 30 days.
"Even if Cao Zhen only covered half the distance, it would still take a month. So, the campaign against Shu was halted by an edict from Emperor Ming of Wei, but the campaign was counterattacked by Shu Han en route."
"In 231-234 AD, although Shu Han achieved many victories, it was ultimately an internal accident that led to the retreat. It's hard to say whether luck was on Cao Wei's side or on the Sima family's side!"
Lin Ke couldn't help but sigh as she finished speaking.
The people in front of the screen looked at each other, feeling that what was about to happen was not a good thing!
"And in the autumn of 234 AD, Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of Shu Han, was about to meet the end of his life."
"At Wuzhang Plains that year, Zhuge Liang led an army of 100,000 to launch his fifth Northern Expedition, which was also his last."
"During the standoff between the two armies, apart from other reasons, Zhuge Liang himself experienced health problems."
"Even those hard-working emperors, those who practically work overtime all night, aren't exactly long-lived people!"
Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty: Just say my name already!!
"Moreover, compared to Liu Shan, the last emperor of Shu Han, Zhuge Liang had far too many things to deal with, and he was too worried to keep up. That's why there's the saying: 'No matter how big or small, everything is decided by Liang.'"
"He devoted himself to the Shu Han state and worked tirelessly to fulfill Liu Bei's trust, even unto death. At this point, his body could no longer hold on, and it was time for him to come to his end."
"The Han Dynasty is over, and the Shu Han Dynasty has ended. There are still several decades left. Sooner or later, Cao Wei will annex Wu and Shu. As the saying goes, the will of Heaven is hard to defy."
"Therefore, Prime Minister Zhuge Liang finally died of illness in the army at Wuzhangyuan in August of 234 AD, at the age of 54."
