Chapter 601: The Vast Heaven! How Could You Be so Unkind to Me? !
"From a scientific point of view, the heat from the fire caused heavy rain due to the intersection of updrafts and cold air..."
"I have learned in geography class that the valley terrain suddenly heats up and the air flow rises, and the possibility of rain is very high."
"Uncomfortable!!"
"It's up to people to plan things, but it's up to God to make things happen! It's God's will, alas!"
"I didn't expect that the Prime Minister would end up like this..."
…
Countless people sighed, seeing the Shu army march west to camp at Wuzhangyuan, and Sima Yi, who survived the catastrophe, was naturally still confronting the Shu army across the river. They would not be fooled again this time. No matter how provocative Zhuge Liang was, Sima Yi ignored it.
I was fooled once, can I be fooled a second time?
As a result, it was difficult for the Shu army to advance, and Zhuge Liang finally fell ill due to long-term overwork...
Seeing this, few viewers could smile on their faces.
Many viewers vaguely felt that the prime minister's end was approaching.
In fact, from a literary point of view, it is not difficult to guess that the battle in Shangfang Valley was already destiny and was Zhuge Liang's last plan!
Zhuge Liang fell ill from overwork in Wuzhangyuan, vomited blood and fell into a coma. He could only tell Jiang Wei some of his military techniques and tips before his deadline was approaching, hoping that Jiang Wei could succeed him, and he tirelessly wrote military books to benefit future generations.
Lying on the sick bed, he knew that his life was in danger, but because the important thing had not been accomplished, he was still worried about it, so he placed his hope in the Jianxing technique to delay his life and achieve his great cause.
"Are you going to change your destiny against the will of heaven..."
In "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there are many such ancient magic techniques. To this day, modern people advocate science, and they don't know whether they are true or false.
But just when the main life lamp is shining brightly, it is about to break through the boundary of life.
Because Sima Yi's troops attacked the camp, Wei Yan broke into Zhuge Liang's tent in surprise!
When they saw this scene, the hope that was ignited was extinguished again. The audience sat quietly in their seats with solemn expressions!
A gust of wind blew out the main life lamp, and Zhuge Liang's efforts to break through the realm of life failed.
"it's over."
"Congratulations, Prime Minister!"
"In tears..."
"Woooooooooo..."
Du Fu, the poet saint of the Tang Dynasty, once wrote a poem called "The Prime Minister of Shu", which can be said to be the most suitable poem for Zhuge Liang.
There are two sentences in it: "Three visits have troubled the world, and two dynasties have helped the hearts of old ministers."
He died before he left the army, which made the hero burst into tears!
…
At the last moment of Zhuge Liang's life, he asked Fei Yi to return to Chengdu as soon as possible to report to His Majesty. He then passed the twenty-four pieces he had learned in his life into books to Jiang Wei and called Ma Dai into his tent to secretly teach him a plan.
He also summoned Yang Yi and gave him a tips bag, telling Yang Yi that after his death, Wei Yan would rebel!
When Wei Yan rebels, open the bag and make your own decision!
"Even though he knew his end was coming, Zhuge Liang only thought about Shu!"
"At this moment, you are planning to die!"
"Liu Bei's virtue is almost hypocritical, and Kong Ming's wisdom is almost demonic!"
"He was a god from the first appearance at the beginning, and he was a god until the last moment of his life. Unfortunately, God's will cannot be violated!"
Looking at Zhuge Liang's arrangements and tips one after another, the audience knew that these Zhuge Liang's worries may become a reality, because Zhuge Liang has always been such a man of scheming and clever calculations.
The sunset is like blood, and the sunset is brilliant.
I don’t know how beautiful this scene of "Three Kingdoms" is.
Under the dim sunset, countless Shu soldiers were practicing. What was an ordinary scene in the past seemed so precious to Zhuge Liang, or to thousands of spectators.
Zhuge Liang forced the sick body out of the camp and chatted with the soldiers he loved for the last time.
Seeing the flag of the restoration of the Central Plains still fluttering in the dust, countless viewers couldn't help but shed tears...
After explaining his funeral affairs, Kong Ming looked at these beloved sergeants, and these sergeants also knew that the prime minister's body was exhausted, and they all knelt down and shouted:
"Prime Minister! Take care!"
"Prime Minister! Take care!"
"Prime Minister! Take care of yourself!"
"Prime Minister! Take care of yourself!"
Needless to say, Zhuge Liang's prestige in the Shu army was the most respected person among the Shu army. Seeing the prime minister's posture, these soldiers couldn't help but shed tears.
Zhuge Liang looked at the flag that conquered the Central Plains, and tears flowed down the corners of his eyes, and he murmured:
"Liang, you can no longer beg for help in battle..."
"Yuyou Cangtian..."
"What's wrong with me?"
…
When Zhuge Liang murmured these last two words full of regret, the audience in front of the screen only felt their emotions splashing out of control, and they couldn't stop their tears!
In the story of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", they had already regarded Zhuge Liang as the protagonist, but even so, in the story of the old thief, Zhuge Liang did not fulfill his lifelong wish before his death.
Zhuge Liang tried his best and truly fulfilled the life philosophy of "dedicate himself to death and die" that he pursued throughout his life.
"Uuuuuuuuuu——"
"Don't……"
On the screen, all the sounds disappeared, leaving only Zhuge Liang's last bleak figure.
When Zhuge Liang slowly closed his eyes and the feather fan fell to the ground, both the soldiers of Shu and the thousands of spectators from Kyushu knew...
The prime minister who was respected by thousands of people left.
"August 23, autumn of the twelfth year of Jianxing."
"Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, died of illness in Wuzhangyuan at the age of fifty-four."
When the narration in the TV series pierced the hearts of the audience word by word, everyone finally accepted the fact that the prime minister had passed away.
But even so, the audience was still sad as never before. The death of so many characters in so many episodes of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" had never brought them such a feeling.
This is an extremely sad emotion.
Because even a god like Zhuge Liang would have many regrets in his life.
Zhuge Liang's regret was that he failed to complete the heavy responsibility entrusted to him by the late emperor and died.
Life and death are both vague, not the long parting hatred.
Want to ask where spring goes? A bright moon shines on Xiaoxiang!
Died before the mission was accomplished, always makes heroes cry.
How can it not make people feel heartbroken to see the tragic ending of a life of dedication? !
This is the unique sense of knife in Lao Zei's works. It is obviously an extremely artistic ending of life, but the audience is moved to tears. Zhuge Liang devoted his life to the cause, and the tragic ending, how can it not make people feel heartbroken?
And unlike the death of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei before, Zhuge Liang himself did not make any mistakes, unlike Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who can be said to have causes and consequences if it is lighter, and can be said to be self-inflicted if it is heavier.
But Zhuge Liang did everything, and he was almost able to kill Sima Yi in the Shangfang Valley. Who knew that it would rain heavily, extinguishing the hope of the revival of the Han Dynasty and the hope of the Shu Kingdom to flatten the Central Plains, giving people a sad color shrouded in the vastness of heaven and earth.
From Shangfang Valley to the Seven Stars Lamp, the continuous accumulation of emotions, the sudden change, and the fateful reversal, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" can be said to be textbook-level. It can only be said that in the previous life, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" can be called one of the four great masterpieces, and it is very likely to be the most read of the four great masterpieces, which is not unreasonable.
"Gather and then disperse, gain and then lose, rejoice and then cry. Flowers bloom and fade, spring and autumn pass. Beauty withers, heroes end their lives."
"When Kong Ming first came out of the thatched cottage, he had a face as beautiful as jade and lips as white as painted with rouge. What a heroic figure! He burned Xinye and angered Zhou Yu three times. How high-spirited he was! He wore a feather fan and a turban, was gentle and elegant, and was calm and composed in both advance and retreat."
"Call the wind and get the wind, call the rain and get the rain, attack the city as easy as taking something out of a bag, and fought for more than ten years in the south and the north, but failed at the last moment."
"Zhuge Liang, who wore a turban and a crane cloak, and looked like a fairy, has fallen to this point."
"The spirit is gone, the candle is dim, and he survived to the end. He wanted to kill the enemy, but he was powerless to save the world!"
...
When Zhuge Liang died and the hot searches in various states exploded, Zhu Xiahua, a famous writer in Xiazhou, wrote an article, expressing his deep emotion for Zhuge Liang's life.
In fact, Zhu Xiahua said in public long before that the original work of the book "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" must be a stunning work.
Who knows, from the middle period, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" not only did not go mediocre, but became more and more exciting. The death of Guan Yu is an important node. Since Guan Yu's death, the atmosphere of the entire "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has become desolate, and a series of familiar characters have died one after another!
There is such a saying in the history circle, that is, in real history, a great epidemic occurred in 220 AD. After all, wars were frequent, and those corpses could not be properly handled, which led to the death of many famous generals and civil officials.
Zhuge Liang's charm is really too great.
Not only because of his unparalleled wisdom and his ability to predict things, but also because of his will to go against the will of heaven2, the kind of sincerity that knows it is impossible to do, the reason why heroes are heroes is all here.
Six trips to Qishan, each time represents Zhuge Liang's resolute will!
Lao Ze created many characters in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but only Zhuge Liang is the one who has almost no shortcomings and is admired by everyone.
"Most heroes are like this!"
"Farewell, Prime Minister!"
"The fire is extinguished in Shangfang Valley, and the autumn wind blows on Wuzhangyuan! How sad and lamentable!!"
"Live towards death, gather towards separation, and unite the beginning of the Three Kingdoms. The great forces in the world will unite after a long period of separation, and separate after a long period of unity. Zhuge Liang did everything. I don't know what language to use to express my feelings now. Thousands of words converge into one sentence: Farewell, Prime Minister! Take care, Prime Minister!"
"Humanity and destiny cannot be violated. It is said that the decline and fall of the Han Dynasty is destined by heaven, but Liu Bei said: 'How dare I leave it to destiny?' Zhuge Liang came out of the mountains and gambled with Liu Bei! It's a pity that Liu Bei was a man of ambition and died for his brothers. Otherwise, if Liu Bei was still there, the Han Dynasty might not have perished! It's also fate..."
"Prime Minister Zhuge, knowing that it is impossible to do it, he still did it. His loyalty is as bright as the sun and the moon, but how can the vast heaven treat me so poorly? Two lines of tears can only sigh that right and wrong, success and failure are in vain. How sad!!"
Death of Zhuge Liang
This is the most discussed episode in the whole series so far.
This huge influence is not only in Xiazhou, but also spread all over Kyushu!
This should be the only time that Lao Zei keeps stabbing people in his works, and the audience and fans all over the world do not scold Lao Zei's works. There is no way, the history of Xiazhou is like this, brilliant and sad.
Any historical figure who is the best of the times will eventually be unable to withstand the years!
Compared with the aggrieved deaths of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Zhuge Liang's death can be said to be full of artistry, especially Zhuge Liang's last two sentences: "How can the vast heaven be so unkind to me?", which makes the whole plot sublime.
Now looking back, it is really a pity for the character of Liu Bei.
Although he is not a decisive and wise king in the eyes of the audience, he started from scratch and helped his brothers. In the end, when he died, he left Zhuge Liang alone in the Imperial City and left his last words: "If he is not talented, you can do it yourself." Pick!"
Who knows what this sentence meant in this day and age!
If Zhuge Liang really takes the position of Lord of Shu, history may be changed, but Zhuge Liang is not the same Zhuge Liang.
Liu Bei is benevolent and righteous, but Zhuge Liang is disloyal?
In the end, I can only sigh, there are endless things in this world, and there is no escape from the days.
…
The impact of Zhuge Liang's death seemed to exceed many people's expectations.
He even became the most famous ancient figure in Xiazhou overseas.
As for the true history of Zhuge Liang, it was also gradually revealed during this period that this character was really not made up by the old thieves, but a real person. However, most of the stories about Zhuge Liang in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" are Made up.
In its previous life, as a romance work, "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" could make many people across the country think it was real history, which is already a miracle.
This episode of Autumn Wind Gojohara is not over yet.
After Zhuge Liang died of illness, Yang Yi slowly withdrew his troops in accordance with the prime minister's will. He used the wooden statue made by Kong Ming to scare off Sima Yi's hundreds of thousands of chasing troops, causing Sima Yi to exclaim: "Kong Ming is a wizard in the world..."
Even if he died, he would have left behind a plan that was enough for the Shu army to retreat.
…
"It's so unbelievable. He is truly a god in predicting things!"
"Wei Yan actually rebelled! I once thought that Wei Yan and Jiang Wei were the only hope after Zhuge Liang of the Shu army..."
"Even now I'm still worried..."
Since Zhuge Liang handed over military power to Yang Yi, he already relied on his superior martial arts. Wei Yan, who behaved arrogantly, was very dissatisfied and actually raised his troops to rebel!
Zhuge Liang can be suppressed in fashion, but once Zhuge Liang dies, no one can suppress him.
But Wei Yan never expected that before Zhuge Liang died, he had already expected that he would rebel. It was also a trick to let Ma Dai, who pretended to rebel with Wei Yan according to the secret plan given by Kong Ming, use his sword to kill Wei Yan. Get off the horse.
From then on, these six expeditions out of Qishan ended with the Shu army retreating completely.
But no matter what happens, Zhuge Liang, who knows things like a god and wears a feather fan and silk scarf, will no longer appear in front of the audience and thousands of Shu army officers and soldiers.
Over the years, Zhuge Liang has already become the totem of Shu.
After the death of the prime minister, Yang Yi, Jiang Wei, Ma Dai and other Shu army officers helped the prime minister's coffin and marched into Chengdu together.
Everyone in Shu capital paid filial piety, all civil and military officials, and people in the mountains and forests all cried bitterly, and the whole country shook the ground with mourning!
Looking at such a scene, countless viewers couldn't help but burst into tears again, feeling like "the Prime Minister dies, the Three Kingdoms die".
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
Even all the prosperity is just a handful of fine sand.
Liu Chan followed Zhuge Liang's wishes and buried him in Dingjun Mountain without any walls, bricks, stones or any sacrifices. It was one of the few "human things" he had done in the Three Kingdoms.
…
Zhuge Liang is indeed the protagonist in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
Not just the myth, but the entire plot is propelled around it.
As soon as Zhuge Liang died, whether it was the original work or the TV series version, the pace suddenly became faster and entered the final stage of the later period.
With each episode, several years pass.
After Zhuge Liang's death, Cao Rui named Sima Yi Taifu, and Gongsun Yuan of Liaodong established himself as King of Yan. Sima Yi defeated Liaodong and killed Gongsun Yuan in one stroke.
In the third year of Jingchu, 239 AD, which was the fourth year after Zhuge Liang's death, Cao Rui, the lord of Wei, was seriously ill. He followed Liu Bei's example of entrusting an orphan in Baidi City and entrusted the eight-year-old crown prince Cao Fang to Sima Yi. He died without saying a word.
Unfortunately, Sima Yi is not Zhuge Liang.
It can even be said that Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang are two sides of the same coin. Sima Yi lives deep in the Taifu Mansion and does not care about current affairs, but he has been making secret preparations. He finally seized the opportunity and seized the military power of Wei State in one fell swoop, making the Sima family the biggest winner in the Three Kingdoms period. Paved the way.
In 251 AD, Sima Yi died of illness.
His son Sima Shi was named the General of the Wei State, and Sima Zhao of the Sima family was the General of the Hussars. It can also be seen from the ownership of military power that the government of the Wei State was entirely arbitrarily determined by the Sima family.
"I see……"
"Sima Yi is a ruthless man. Sure enough, in real history, only such a ruthless man can become the real winner in the battle for hegemony!"
"I'm crazy too. When I saw Sima Yi die, I felt sad..."
"The old thief wrote the Kingdom of Shu and the Prime Minister as the protagonists, but in real history, the Sima family is the protagonist."
"Sun Quan is also dead, and the people I know are almost dead..."
"That troubled time when all the heroes came together..."
Shortly after Sima Yi died of illness, Sun Quan also died of illness. Since then, the state of Wu has fallen into real internal and external troubles.
Outside, the Wei army was watching with eager eyes.
Internally, the struggle for power continued. Sun Jun, Sun Jian, Teng Yin and other officials took control of the affairs of the Soochow Dynasty, deposed Sun Liang, the leader of Wu, and supported a puppet emperor, Sun Xiu, as the emperor.
As the years go by, the audience gradually realizes why the Sima family became the final winner.
Why in real history, the heroes of the Three Kingdoms rose up together, but eventually three of them fell to Jin.
Wu's country was troubled by foreign aggression, and Shu was also relying on Jiang Wei for support.
In the blink of an eye, we have come to the end of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
