In the long history of ancient history, the Three Kingdoms period can be called an era of heroes. During the period from 220 to 280 AD, the Han Dynasty fell and the three kingdoms of Cao Wei, Shu Han, and Eastern Wu rose. Among them, the Shu-Wu alliance once confronted the powerful Cao Wei, but this alliance was not indestructible. In the context of the two countries' attacks on each other, the two ministers of Shu Han, Liao Hua and Zhang Yi, were exiled to Eastern Wu, but successfully returned to Yizhou and experienced a magnificent life journey.
Liaohua: The road of the military generals of the Shu Han Dynasty.
Liao Hua, whose real name is Chun, was born in a wealthy family in the south of the country. At the beginning, he was the main book of Guan Yu, a former general under Liu Bei. In the winter of the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an (219), when Guan Yu was on a northern expedition to Xiangfan, Sun Quan took the opportunity to attack Jingzhou, Guan Yu was defeated and killed, and Liao Hua was exiled to Eastern Wu.
In Eastern Wu, Liao Hua did not choose to work for Sun Quan. Missing the Han lord Liu Bei, he adopted the strategy of lying about death, and successfully left Soochow with his mother and went to Shu Han. In the spring of the second year of Zhangwu (222), Liu Bei personally led an army to conquer Eastern Wu and met Liao Hua in Zigui. Happy, Liu Bei appointed Liao Hua as the Taishou of Yidu County.
Despite the twists and turns, Liao Hua finally succeeded in returning to Yizhou and became an important military general in the late Shu Han period. After Liu Bei's death, Liao Hua continued to follow Zhuge Liang on his northern expedition to the Central Plains. In 234 AD, after the death of Zhuge Liang, Liao Hua followed Jiang Wei's Northern Expedition and became the general of the right chariot cavalry, served as the assassin of Bingzhou, and was the marquis of Zhongzhong.
However, Liao Hua also experienced setbacks in the course of the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains. In the autumn of the fifth year of Jingyao (262), Jiang Wei went on a northern expedition to Cao Wei, and Liao Hua advised Jiang Wei to be cautious in using his troops. Unfortunately, Jiang Wei did not listen to the advice, and as a result, he was defeated by Deng Ai in Hou He, and the Shu Han army retreated. In August of the sixth year of Jingyao (263), Sima Zhaoxing's troops attacked, and Shu Han faced the battle of Wei's destruction. Liao Hua was ordered to support Jiang Wei, but eventually witnessed the tragedy of the demise of Shu Han.
Liao Hua died of illness on the way to Luoyang in the spring of the fifth year of Jingyuan (264), ending his loyalty to Shu Han and leaving behind a magnificent military career.
Zhang Yi: Wenchen's bumpy fate.
Another Shu Han minister, Zhang Yi, was born in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and grew up during the Three Kingdoms period. Zhang Yi, with his outstanding literary talent and political achievements, was promoted to filial piety and honesty when Liu Zhang was in charge of Yizhou, and was appointed as the county magistrate of Yufu County. However, in the seventeenth year of Jian'an (212), Liu Bei broke with Liu Zhang, and Zhang Yi was defeated and retreated to Chengdu.
After Liu Bei pacified Yizhou, Zhang Yi was canonized as the Taishou of Ba County, the General of Sijin Zhonglang, and the Taishou of Yizhou County. However, on the way to Yizhou County to take office, Zhang Yi was escorted to Wu by Yonghong, a native of Yizhou, and was exiled in Eastern Wu for a long time. In the second year of Zhang Wu (223), after Liu Bei's death, Prime Minister Zhuge Liang sent Deng Zhi as an envoy to Wu and successfully won back the Zhang descendants.
After Zhang Yi returned to Shu, he was valued by Zhuge Liang and was appointed to join the army in the Prime Minister's Mansion, replacing Zhuge Liang to deal with the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and concurrently serving as the governor of Yizhou. He showed outstanding talent and won Zhuge Liang's deep trust. Zhang Yi's loyalty and talent played an active role in the internal affairs of Shu Han.
In 227 AD, Zhang Yi, who was also the captain of the shooting sound and the governor of the prefecture, continued to contribute his wisdom and talent to the Shu Han. In the eighth year of Jianxing (230), Zhang Yi died, ending his officialdom in Shu Han. Although his life experience was full of ups and downs, Zhang Yi still made outstanding contributions to Shu Han.
Epilogue. Liao Hua and Zhang Yi, two Shu Han ministers, wrote their own legends with loyalty, resourcefulness and talent during the magnificent Three Kingdoms period. Although they were exiled to Eastern Wu, they became witnesses of history in the process of finally returning to Shu Han. Their stories tell us that in troubled times, loyalty, tenacity, and wisdom were the most precious treasures of the Shu Han ministers who had gone through vicissitudes.

First of all, the story of Liao Hua shows the tenacity and loyalty of a military general in troubled times.

He did not want to serve Eastern Wu, but fled by fraudulently dying, and finally succeeded in returning to Shu Han, making great achievements for the war in the later period of Shu Han. Liao Hua's persistence and loyalty make people think about the far-reaching impact of individual loyalty and belief on the direction of history in troubled times.
