Zhuge Liang A talented but ill fated genius of the Three Kingdoms

Mondo History Updated on 2024-02-03

Zhuge Liang, the superstar of the Three Kingdoms era, was born in 181 and died in 234. He did not come from a bustling city, but from a small place in Yinan, Shandong, but this did not affect his strong mark in the history of Shu Han. He is the embodiment of wisdom, talented, and is known as Mr. Wolong by later generations, and he is simply a legendary existence!

At the beginning, when Zhuge Liang was still following his uncle Zhuge Xuan around, he had already shown a unique intelligence. But gold always shines, and in Longzhong's secluded life, he is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Finally one day, Liu Bei looked at the thatched house and invited out this Mr. Wolong. As soon as Zhuge Liang came out of the mountain, he teamed up with Sun Quan to give Cao Cao a "burning company camp" in Chibi, and became famous in a battle!

With the addition of Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei was like a tiger with wings, conquering the city, and soon formed a situation of the Three Kingdoms. When Liu Bei was proclaimed emperor in Chengdu, Zhuge Liang naturally became the undisputed candidate for prime minister. After Liu Chan succeeded to the throne, Zhuge Liang was named the Marquis of Wuxiang and became the real power of Shu Han.

Speaking of Zhuge Liang, that's really a thumbs up! He is diligent and cautious, and he is simply a workaholic. Shu Han was well governed by him, and his relationship with Eastern Wu was also quite good. Not only that, but he also pacified the Nanzhong region and allowed Shu Han's territory to continue to expand.

But ah, this thing of fate is really not covered! Zhuge Liang made five northern expeditions, and each time he boasted that he wanted to dominate the world, but every time he returned home because of insufficient food. In the end, in 234, he collapsed from exhaustion and died of illness in Wuzhangyuan, leaving at the age of fifty-four. Liu Chan felt that he was too good, so he posthumously named him the Marquis of Zhongwu, and people in later generations called him Marquis Wu, which is a great honor!

Don't look at Zhuge Liang as a cow, he also has regrets! He failed to realize his dream of supporting the Han family, do you think it's a bit of a pity? However, his talent and wisdom have been praised by future generations for thousands of years! Shu Han originally had three super bull strategists who could help him, but unfortunately, they all died young. This luck is no one!

Back then, Liu Bei, who was forty or fifty years old, was just a down-and-out household, and was chased by Cao Cao all over the world. At that time, everyone knew that it was more promising to take refuge in Cao Cao or Sun Quan. But Zhuge Liang just didn't take the usual path, he chose Liu Bei, who was not favored, and also proposed a strategy of dividing the world. The result? He did it! not only made Liu Bei the emperor, but also made Shu Han one of the Three Kingdoms!

What's even better is that Zhuge Liang also showed superb wisdom in handling the relationship with Soochow. After Sun Quan attacked Jingzhou and killed Guan Yu, the relationship between Wu and Shu fell to a freezing point. But Zhuge Liang ignored his previous suspicions, proceeded from the overall situation, repaired the relationship between the two countries, and joined forces with Eastern Wu to fight against Cao Wei. This kind of mind and wisdom is really admirable!

Now some people on the Internet like to question and even slander Zhuge Liang, but in my opinion, Zhuge Liang is a genius and a great talent! He can put the down-and-out Liu Bei on the throne, unite allies, and suppress Cao Wei with a state. To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that Shu Han's national strength was too weak and Zhuge Liang had too few cards in his hand, he would have been able to dominate the world! Prime Minister through the ages!

Zhuge Liang's story tells us: choice is more important than hard work! He chose the right path and the right partner, and eventually went to success. Although fate made people and failed to dominate the world, his wisdom and talent still make us admire!
