Chapter 16 Tianshui Qilin
The scene on the sky changed, and instantly they arrived at a simple cemetery.
The cemetery looks very old.
But the tombstone was filled with flowers and offerings.
There are three big words written on the tombstone.
Jiang Wei’s Tomb!
The ancient people, who were originally drooling over the delicious food, were a little dissatisfied when they saw that the delicious malatang suddenly turned into a person's grave.
Emperor Xin: "I was just planning to make a spicy hot pot, but I haven't learned how to make it yet, why is it suddenly over?"
Liu Bang: "Although there is no spicy hot pot at the banquet, it is still a wonderful thing to look at the sky and drink good wine. The sky should not be changed again."
Even Ying Zheng, who possessed a strong self-control ability, shook his head with some regret and said:
"This sky curtain is really unromantic and a real bummer!"
"Who is this kid named Jiang Wei?"
“Is it necessary to have a canopy over his grave?”
As Jiang Wei's tomb appeared in front of the camera, the sky screen began to change constantly.
The first to appear were two girls with modern makeup, who were talking privately.
[Girl A: "I can't believe my boyfriend didn't cry when he watched Titanic."]
[Girl B: "Oh my god, what on earth is he thinking? Doesn't he have any emotions?"]
The camera turns and Girl A's boyfriend appears.
I saw my boyfriend looking at a screenshot and crying.
The screenshot shows the scene in the old Romance of the Three Kingdoms where Jiang Wei is holding his chest and pointing his sword at the enemy before his death.
The narration starts!
[I have a plan that will definitely capture Zhuge Liang alive.]
[Old General, do you know Tianshui Jiang Boyue? ]
[The situation is over, how can we force it? 】
[Prime Minister, Jiang Wei is incompetent and has failed to live up to your trust. I, Jiang Wei, may be a little talented but my loyalty is worthy of admiration.]
[We are ready to fight to the death, why did Your Majesty surrender first? ]
[I have a plan that can restore the Han Dynasty to its former glory.]
[I, Jiang Wei, would rather die than not protect the foundation created by the late emperor! ]
[My plan failed, it is fate! ]
After a quick screen switch, the up master's figure entered the video. He toasted a glass of wine to Jiang Wei, and then slowly said:
[Jiang Wei was born into an official family in Tianshui, Liangzhou, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.]
[His father died in a Qiang rebellion when Jiang Wei was very young, and Jiang Wei decided to join the army from then on.]
[When Jiang Wei was twelve years old, he followed Xiahou Yuan to quell the rebellion of the Qiang people in Liangzhou.]
[Because he shined at a young age, he was called Tianshui Qilin. 】
[When Zhuge Liang launched his first northern expedition, the people in the Tianshui area were in turmoil, and no one had the courage to resist Zhuge Liang's army.]
【Only Jiang Wei saw through Zhuge Liang's plan. 】
[He also used the enemy's trick against him, sending troops to attack Zhao Yun while he was surrendering, and beat him into a state of great embarrassment.]
[At this time, Jiang Wei, who was only 26 years old, not only saw through Zhuge Liang's plan. ]
[He even fought a tie with Zhao Yun, one of the Five Tiger Generals, and thus attracted the attention of Zhuge Liang.]
【Zhuge Liang defeated Jiang Wei on the battlefield.】
[Jiang Wei was also suspected of treason by other Wei generals, and he was eventually left with nowhere to go.]
【And under the persuasion of Jiang Wei's mother. 】
【Jiang Wei decided to inherit his father's will and become a general of the Han Dynasty. 】
……
Late Han Dynasty.
Zhang Fei pointed at the young Jiang Wei on the screen and said with a smile: "Zilong, look, you fought this young boy to a draw."
Zhao Yun did not feel embarrassed, but said with an appreciative attitude:
"I wonder how old I will be by then?"
"But since he can go with the army, he must not be too old to be unable to move."
"Being able to tie with me back then, this young man named Jiang Wei must be pretty good."
……
【Young Jiang Wei began to learn from Zhuge Liang. 】
【Step by step, Jiang Wei became the general of Shu Han regime. 】【After Zhuge Liang's death, Jiang Wei inherited his will and continued to insist on the Northern Expedition. 】
[During the many years of the Northern Expedition, there were great victories such as the Battle of Taoxi. ]
【There was also a disastrous defeat like the Battle of Dangoya. 】
【But the situation at that time was that the whole country was divided into ten parts, and Cao Wei in the north occupied seven-tenths. 】
[The Shu Han regime, which only had one state, gradually declined after repeated efforts, and the gap between them widened, and eventually it perished.]
[And it was not until the demise of Shu Han was a foregone conclusion.]
【Jiang Wei finally ushered in the last highlight of his life.】
【When Shu Han fell, Jiang Wei was not defeated on the front battlefield. 】
[He knew that the rear was attacked by the enemy, and was still considering leading the army back to provide support.]
【But what Jiang Wei didn't expect was. 】
[What I was waiting for was a notice of surrender from the rear. ]
【The cowardly Liu Chan surrendered to the Wei Kingdom.】
【The Shu Han Dynasty fell.】
When Liu Bei saw this and Liu Chan's surrender, he felt very bitter.
I can only sigh.
"According to what Tianmu said, our Han Dynasty was finally usurped by that thief Cao?"
……
[Even the emperor has surrendered, what else can Jiang Wei, as a minister, do? ]
[Generally speaking, at this time, Jiang Wei, who held military power, would have surrendered directly, and would have remained a high-ranking official with generous salary even if he had gone to Wei.]
【but! 】
【Jiang Wei chooses to refuse! 】
[On the one hand, Jiang Wei pretended to accept the surrender and befriended Zhong Hui, the commander-in-chief of Wei's southern expedition.]
【When two people go out, they ride in the same car and sit at the same table. 】
[On the other hand, he secretly contacted other Shu generals who were unwilling to surrender, and actively worked for the restoration of the country. ]
[He secretly wrote a letter to Liu Chan, who had already surrendered.]
[The letter reads: I hope Your Majesty can endure the humiliation for a few days. I hope that the country will be safe again and the sun and moon will be bright again.]
[Taking advantage of the ambitions of Wei's generals and the dangerous political environment within Wei, Jiang Wei walks a tightrope among various forces, looking for the last hope.]
[When the country was already destroyed, he used up his last energy to start a rebellion in Shu! ]
【According to Jiang Wei's plan.】
[Not only did he want to restore Shu Han, but he also wanted to use this rebellion to capture Chang'an and Luoyang in one fell swoop and revive the Han Dynasty! ]
【This is a strategy that has never been seen in history.】
[It is so difficult that it is almost impossible to achieve. ]
[Jiang Wei once saw hope of success and also killed the Wei general Deng Ai. ]
【But everything turned into nothing in the end. 】
[Jiang Wei, the man who tried his best to revive the Han Dynasty even though the Shu Han regime had already perished.]
[The last great general of the Han Dynasty also died in the mutiny. ]
[After Jiang Wei died, the Wei soldiers cut open his stomach.]
【It turns out that he is as bold as a lion. 】
[The former Tianshui Qilin, now the last great general of the Han Dynasty, bows out! ]
[And his loyalty, his adventurous spirit and his last hurrah of romanticism are extremely rare in all of history.]
[One plan harms three wise men! ]
[Jiang Wei's final fight was absolutely worthy of Zhuge Liang, worthy of Liu Bei, and worthy of the Han Dynasty's final grand funeral! ]
Early Han Dynasty.
When Liu Bang saw the words "the last great general of the Han Dynasty", he felt a little disappointed.
But then, Liu Bang burst into laughter again!
"My Han Dynasty was destroyed in the end."
"But the Han Dynasty fell in a spectacular way!"
"The Qilin child of Tianshui, the great man Jiang Boyao!"
"I, Liu Bang, toast to you!"
