Short videos tell the story of ancient times, bringing tears to the eyes of all dynasties

Chapter 38 Old General, do you know Jiang Boyue from Tianshui?
"Jiang Wei? Who is this?"

Liu Bei looked at the barrage of comments curiously. He could tell that people in later generations had a very high opinion of this man named Jiang Wei.

Especially the sentence that the Shu Han Dynasty came to an end with the departure of Jiang Wei. The fact that a dynasty could be destroyed by the death of one individual instantly aroused the interest of the future Emperor Zhaolie of Han.

"Military Advisor, do you know this Jiang Wei?"

Guan and Zhang on the side were also very curious about who Jiang Wei was.

Zhuge Liang looked at the sentence "48-year-old Zhuge Liang waited for 27-year-old Jiang Wei, just as 48-year-old Liu Bei waited for 27-year-old Zhuge Liang. This is the romance of Shu Han." He lowered his head and calculated lightly.

He smiled and said, "My lord, two generals, according to what Tianmu said, the child is only four years old now."

"I think he is not yet acquainted with us at this moment."

"Is that so? That's a shame."

A look of regret appeared on Liu Bei's face.

……

"Spend 500 tonight to attack the Jiangdong rats?"

Soochow.

Sun Quan's face turned dark instantly when he saw the barrage.

He angrily picked up the sword and smashed the documents in front of him to pieces.

"Bastard!"

"I am the Emperor of Eastern Wu. Jiangdong is full of heroes. There are no rats here!"

Sun Quan was furious.

What does it mean that Shu Han has its own romance, Cao Wei has its own character, and Dong Wu has its own rats? ! !

How come it has become a derogatory word in their Dongwu!
What's the meaning? ! !
In the eyes of this group of later generations, is he, the great Emperor of Eastern Wu, just a rat?

This is simply unreasonable!
……

Late Shu Han.

The white-haired Jiang Wei looked at the sky.

Seems a little older.

"Have I still failed to fulfill the Prime Minister's last wish?"

Jiang Wei showed a bitter smile.

I feel a kind of lonely feeling in my heart.

Since Tianmu called himself a tragic figure and his death represented the fall of Shu Han, he was destined to be a loser.

"I have launched nine northern expeditions, all of which have failed. I have not been able to realize the Prime Minister's last wish, nor have I been able to preserve the achievements left by Emperor Zhaolie. I, Jiang Wei, am a complete loser."

Jiang Wei burst into tears.

Thinking back to the time when the prime minister entrusted the Kingdom of Shu to him, asking him to revitalize the Kingdom of Shu, fight the rebels in the north, and restore the Han Dynasty, he dared not forget it for a moment all these years.

Although he inherited the prime minister's will and led troops to the north many times in recent years, he failed again and again.

The failure was so great that even he himself couldn't help but doubt whether he could really succeed in the Northern Expedition.

"Jiang Wei has no talent. He is ashamed of Emperor Zhaolie and the trust of the Prime Minister..."

Just when Jiang Wei was feeling desperate because of his failure.

Above the sky, images of him were playing slowly.

……

[In the seventh year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty, a baby boy was born in an official family in Ji County, Tianshui. His father named him Jiang Wei.]

[When Jiang Wei was 12 years old, his father died in a Qiang rebellion.]

【After his father passed away, Jiang Wei chose to join the army to serve his country. 】

[At the end of this year, he followed Xiahou Yuan's troops to recover Liangzhou and the Qiang tribes. At a young age, he had already achieved fame and honor, and people at that time called him the "Tianshui Qilin Child."]

"Huh? This Jiang Wei was originally from Cao Wei."

Liu, Guan and Zhang looked at the sky and were amazed at the words that Jiang Wei followed Xiahou Yuan's troops to recapture Liangzhou and the Qiang people.

The young general of Cao Wei will become a key minister of their Shu Kingdom in the future. I wonder if Cao Aman will go crazy when he finds out.

Zhuge Liang looked worried: "My Lord, now is not the time to worry about this matter. I am worried that if Tianmu reveals the secret, Cao Wei will take the initiative and abduct this Qilin child first."

Tianshui is currently within the territory of Cao Wei. If Cao Wei pays attention to Jiang Wei, they might seize it first.

By then, it will be difficult for me to rekindle the relationship with the other person.

After being reminded by Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei quickly realized this and hurriedly arranged for suitable people to sneak into Tianshui to look for Jiang Wei.

...Just as Zhuge Liang expected.

Cao Cao, who was far away in Xuchang, also noticed Jiang Wei's existence.

"Tianshui Qilin'er, great. Chong'er just happens to be in need of a suitable book boy. Come on, send someone to Tianshui to find this little fellow named Jiang Wei for me."

Cao Cao touched his son Cao Chong's little head, not hiding his love for him at all.

He didn't notice at all that Cao Pi, who was standing beside him, was staring at his youngest son with a gloomy look.

……

[In 228 AD, Zhuge Liang launched a northern expedition. The elders in the county all responded upon hearing the news. The governor of Tianshui fled to Shanggui overnight.

Jiang Wei and his companions could not catch up with him, and local officials would not let him enter the city. With nowhere else to go, Jiang Wei surrendered to Zhuge Liang.

[This year Jiang Wei was 27 years old and Zhuge Liang was 48 years old. ]

"So that's what happened."

Upon learning what had happened, Liu Bei could not help but laugh and said, "Cao Wei is really incompetent, giving away such a trusted minister to the military advisor for nothing."

Looking at Liu Bei's complacent look, Zhuge Liang smiled slightly, and then became secretly sad.

It is 228 AD. The lord must have passed away by then.

It was just as Tianmu said, Jiang Wei had never even seen his lord.

A man who has never seen the lord, but swears to protect the foundation created by himself and the lord to the death. Such a character is really enough to make people cry and sigh.

[In the same year, Ma Su was defeated at Jieting, the Han army lost its strategic stronghold, and Jiang Wei followed Zhuge Liang back to Hanzhong.]

"Ok?"

Zhuge Liang, who was originally feeling sympathetic, was instantly attracted by Tianmu's next words.

Did this Northern Expedition end with Ma Su's defeat at Jieting?
It seems that Ma Su is not a person who can be reused.

Zhuge Liang kept this in mind secretly.

He put all his national strength into the Northern Expedition, but failed because of Ma Su's defeat at Jieting, which was an insult to his own ambitions.

[Under Zhuge Liang's heavy favor, Jiang Wei was granted a title of nobility and appointed a general in a short period of time. He was so highly favored when he first entered the Han camp. The ambition to revive the Han Dynasty ran through Jiang Boyao's life.]

[In 234 AD, Jiang Wei once again followed Zhuge Liang in the Northern Expedition. ]

[Since Sima Yi refused to fight, as the battle situation changed, Zhuge Liang's health was also worn down. ]

[In the autumn of this year, Zhuge Liang explained his final plans to everyone and died of illness at Wuzhangyuan.]

"military adviser……"

Seeing this, Liu Bei grabbed Zhuge Liang's hand, tears in his eyes.

He knew that the military advisor's Northern Expedition was his lifelong obsession, and the source of this obsession was the promise he had made to Liu Bei.

"Military Advisor, you have sacrificed so much for the Han Dynasty and for me."

Liu Bei's tears finally burst out.

Generals Guan and Zhang standing by were also somewhat moved.

Guan Yu clasped his fists and said, "Military Advisor, I am a bit arrogant. When you first came, I was a bit dissatisfied with you. I have offended you. Please forgive me. From now on, I will obey the orders of the Prime Minister without hesitation!"

Zhang Fei imitated Guan Yu's fist-clasping gesture, but after thinking for a long time, he could not come up with the right words, so he could only shout emotionally: "Me too!"

Zhuge Liang also felt emotional when watching this scene.

It’s not easy to get the recognition of two generals!

But this Jiang Boyue...

Just because of my kindness, he pursued the ambition of reviving the Han Dynasty throughout his life. How similar he is to me.

When I think about it, wasn’t it because my lord visited me three times that I was willing to come out of seclusion in order to repay his kindness?

……

As Tianmu introduced him, Zhuge Liang found himself becoming more and more interested in Jiang Wei.

[The Han army followed Zhuge Liang's arrangements before his death, kept the death a secret, and retreated in an orderly manner.]

[Sima Yi led his army in pursuit, and Jiang Wei ordered his men to raise the flags and beat the drums to scare off the Wei army.]

【Zhuge Liang conquered the Central Plains five times but failed. Behind him, another idealist died a martyrdom.】

【Using offense instead of defense and actively marching north, this was the plan made by Zhuge Liang during his lifetime. 】

[In order to continue his mentor's strategy, Jiang Wei led his army to the north after a four-year break.]

　In the previous chapter, I wrote about a scene where Qin Hui, an iron man, kneeled before Yue Fei. The details were deleted during the review. I feel that I didn’t write anything out of the ordinary… It’s just… hard to comment…
