Zhuge Liang during the Three Kingdoms period was a magical figure of great wisdom and was regarded as a representative of loyal ministers and good looks.
As a politician and military strategist, he was brilliant and was known as the "good man of the ages".
However, there are mixed opinions about his talent and political achievements.
How did Zhuge Liang in history become a good face through the ages?
What are some of his commendable heroic feats?
Zhuge Liang was born in the first year of Emperor Guanghe of the Han Dynasty (181), and grew up in a famous family in Langya, and his family held important positions in the Western Han Dynasty.
However, the family's glory gradually withered, and his father only served as a county governor for a short time in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, with limited power.
Unfortunately, Zhuge Liang lost his mother when he was young and his father when he was seven years old, leaving him and his younger brother to depend on each other.
They relied on their uncle Zhuge Xuan to live, but their uncle's political situation was not stable.
Although Zhuge Liang's family declined, he still studied hard in this unstable environment and had lofty ideals.
With the passage of time, Zhuge Liang lived in seclusion in the grand scenic area of Xiangyang.
Although it may seem like he has given up on national affairs, in fact, he has plans for the future in his heart.
During this period, he studied diligently, thought about the safety of the country, and carefully planned a huge political chess game.
His friends may think that he thinks of himself as high, but Zhuge Liang doesn't care about this, because he cares about national affairs and has his own long-term plans.
Zhuge Liang's insufficient use of talents has become one of the reasons for the inconsistent evaluation of him in history.
Despite his boundless wisdom and important contributions to the country, his propensity to take matters big and small into his own hands weakened his effective use of talent.
However, Zhuge Liang, as a good minister through the ages, his talent and achievements are still indelible in history.
During his auxiliary administration, he put farmers first, promoted agricultural development, dug Dujiangyan, and achieved the country of abundance.
He not only had outstanding works in literature, but also made outstanding contributions to Shu in military and civil affairs.
However, although the battle of Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition was significant, it was also one of his last regrets in history.
He made several northern expeditions to Cao Wei and achieved many successes, but he also suffered setbacks in them.
The first time failed due to improper use of personnel, and the subsequent times also failed to achieve the final victory due to the inappropriate timing or the preparation of the opponent.
The Northern Expedition became a regret for him, but his efforts, wisdom and talents during this period are still worthy of admiration.
Zhuge Liang's life is full of legends and charm, he may be deficient in employing people, but his contribution and wisdom are remembered by history, and he has become a generation of loyal ministers.
