Liu Bei, an outstanding politician and military commander during the Three Kingdoms period, benefited from the resourcefulness and assistance of many strategists around him in his career after twists and turns. Among them, Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng, Pang Tong and other ten strategists are the most outstanding. This article will take an in-depth inventory of the ten strategists under Liu Bei's command, reveal their contributions and fates, and jointly compose the legendary story of Liu Bei in the troubled times.
The first to bear the brunt was Zhuge Liang, who lived in seclusion in Longzhong with his uncle Zhuge Xuan in his early years, but stepped onto the political stage at the invitation of Liu Bei's three visits to the thatched house. The Battle of Chibi, the capture of Jingzhou, and the battle of Yizhou, Zhuge Liang's wisdom and strategy all shined. However, the long-term efforts of the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains eventually became ill due to overwork, and he died of illness in Wuzhangyuan in the 12th year of Jianxing (234) at the age of 54.
Fa Zheng, one of the strategists who provided Liu Bei with excellent resourcefulness. He persuaded Liu Zhang to surrender and offered a plan to behead Xiahou Yuan, which won Liu Bei's trust. In the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an (219), Fa Zheng died at the age of forty-five. Liu Bei deeply felt the pain of his death, and posthumously named him a winged marquis, highlighting his status in Liu Bei's heart.
Pang Tong, who is as famous as Fa Zheng, is also an outstanding strategist under Liu Bei. He died during the siege at the age of thirty-six. Pang Tong's untimely death deprived Shu Han of an important force with excellent strategy.
Xu Shu, who first followed Liu Bei into Shu, left because his mother was captured by Cao Cao. After Xu Shu entered Cao Ying, he became Cao Wei's advisor, and once left a good story of "Xu Shu entered Cao Ying without saying a word". This act of surrender made Liu Bei feel regretful.
During Liu Bei's period, Huang Quan once advised Liu Bei to crusade against Eastern Wu, but because Liu was defeated and surrendered to Cao Wei. In Cao Wei, Huang Quan was valued by Emperor Wen of Wei Cao Pi, and was named Marquis of Yuyang and General of Zhennan.
Ma Liang was one of Liu Bei's five talented strategists. In the Battle of Yiling, Liu Bei was defeated by Lu Xun and died at the age of forty. His death brought a painful blow to Liu Bei.
Liu Ba became famous at a young age and worked for Liu Bei for many years. When Liu Bei ascended the throne and became emperor, he personally wrote relevant documents. In the second year of Zhang Wu (222), Liu Ba died, leaving Liu Bei without a loyal advisor.
Yi nationality provided Liu Bei with an important document "Shu Family". He worked for Liu Bei for a long time, served as the general of Zuo, and worked together with Zhuge Liang and Fa Zheng to plan the prosperity of Shu Han.
Jian Yong met Liu Bei when he was young, persuaded Liu Zhang, the pastor of Yizhou, and made great achievements for Liu Bei to end the Battle of Yizhou. His assistance enabled Liu Bei to pacify Yizhou and he was appointed General Zhaode.
Sun Qian was originally recommended by Zheng Xuan and became Liu Bei's engagement. He served as Liu Bei's envoy many times, providing Liu Bei with loyal advice. However, his death shortly after his tenure as general Bingzhong deprived Liu Bei of a loyal advisor.
Overall, the ten strategists under Liu Bei's command, whether they died of illness, died in battle, or took refuge in Cao Wei, all made outstanding contributions to Liu Bei's career. However, the fate of these strategists is also full of twists and turns, which is embarrassing.
