However, Jiang Wei was leaving and encountered Sima Shi's troops to intercept him. It turned out that when Jiang Wei took Yongzhou, Guo Huaifei reported to the court. The Wei Lord discussed with Sima Yi to stop. Yi sent his eldest son Sima Shi to lead 50,000 troops to Yongzhou to help with the war. When the army heard that Guo Huai's enemy retreated to Shu, the army expected that the Shu troops were weak, so they came to attack him halfway. They rushed to Yangping Pass, but Jiang Wei used the crossbow method taught by Wuhou, and secretly hid more than a hundred crossbows on both sides. One crossbow fired ten arrows, all of which were medicine arrows. The crossbow arrows on both sides were fired at the same time. The front army and his horse were shot to death. Sima Shi was in the chaos.

After escaping, he returned. However, he said that the Shu general in Qushan City, Ju'an, saw that reinforcements did not arrive, so he opened the door to surrender to Wei. Jiang Wei broke tens of thousands of troops and led the defeated soldiers back to Hanzhong. Sima Shi returned to Luoyang. In the autumn of the third year of Jiaping, Sima Yi fell ill and gradually became heavier. He called his two sons to the bed and told him, "I have been in Wei for many years. I have been appointed as the Grand Tutor, and the position of the minister is extremely high. Everyone suspects that I have a different ambition, and I have been afraid. After my death, you two are good at managing the country's affairs. Be careful! Be careful!" After saying that, he died. The eldest son Sima Shi, the second son Sima Zhao, and the two reported to the Wei lord Cao Fang.

Fanghou gave a funeral sacrifice and Youxi was given a posthumous title; he was appointed as the general, and the general of the Shangshu, and Zhao was the general of the cavalry. However, it was said that the prince of Wu, Sun Quan, had the crown prince, and was born to Mrs. Xu. He died in the fourth year of Chiwu in Wu, and then made the second son, Sun He the crown prince, and was born to Mrs. Langya. Because of his disagreement with Princess Quan, he was slandered by the princess, and Quan deposed him. He died of his worries, and he also made his third son, Sun Liang the crown prince, and was born to Mrs. Pan. At this time, Lu Xun and Zhuge Jin were both destroyed, and all the affairs of all were returned to Zhuge Ke. In the early August autumn of the first year of Taiyuan,

One day, a strong wind suddenly broke out, the rivers and seas were surging, and the water was eight feet deep. The pine and cypress planted by the Master of Wu Xianling all rose up and flew straight to the south gate of Jianye City, and fell on the road. Quan was frightened and became sick. In April of the following year, his illness was severe, so he summoned the Grand Tutor Zhuge Ke and the Grand Marshal Lu Dai to the bed and asked for the future. He died after the instructions. He was reigned for twenty-four years and lived in seventy-one years, which was the fifteenth year of Yanxi of Shu Han. Later generations wrote a poem saying: "Purple beard and green eyes are called heroes, and they can make their ministers loyal. In the 24th year, they have made great achievements, and the dragon and tiger occupies in Jiangdong."

After Sun Quan was destroyed, Zhuge Ke made Sun Liang the emperor, and the world was pardoned and changed the reign to the first year of Jianxing. Quan was posthumously named Emperor and buried in Jiangling.

He had already done a detailed investigation and reported to Luoyang. When Sima Shi heard that Sun Quan had died, he proposed to raise an army to attack Wu. Shangshu Fu Ji said, "Wu is dangerous in the Yangtze River. The previous emperors repeatedly fought against each other, but they were not satisfied. It is better to defend the borders. It is better to defend each other's borders. This is the best strategy." The teacher said, "The way of heaven changes every thirty years, how can we always make a tripod? I want to attack Wu." Zhao said, "Now that Sun Quan is newly destroyed, Sun Liang is cowardly, and his gap is right." So he ordered Wang Chang, the general of the Southern Expedition, to lead 100,000 troops to attack Nanjun, Hu Zun, the general of the Eastern Expedition, to lead 100,000 troops to attack Dongxing, Wuqiu Jian, the governor of Zhennan, to lead 100,000 troops to attack Wuchang: three routes advanced. He also sent his younger brother Sima Zhao as the general and commanded the three routes of army horses.

In December of the winter of that year, Sima Zhao's troops arrived at the border of the Eastern Wu, stationed troops and called Wang Chang and Hu Zun. Wu Qiu Jian came to the tent and discussed, "The most important part of the Eastern Wu is Dongxing County. Now he built a large embankment and built two cities on the left and right to prevent attacks from behind Chaohu Lake. All the dukes must be careful." So he ordered Wang Chang and Wu Qiu Jian to lead 10,000 troops each and placed them on the left and right: "Don't advance; wait until Dongxing County is taken, we will advance together." Chang and Jian took the order and left. Zhao ordered Hu Zun to be the vanguard and lead three troops to go: "First build a floating bridge and take the Dongxing embankment; if you seize the left and right cities, it will be a great achievement." Zun led his troops to build a floating bridge.

However, the Grand Tutor Zhuge Ke of Wu heard that the Wei soldiers came from three directions and gathered to discuss. General Ding Feng, the Pingbei, said, "Dongxing is an important place in Eastern Wu. If there is any loss, Nanjun and Wuchang will be in danger." Ke said, "This statement is in line with my intention. You can lead three thousand navy soldiers to go out of the river. I then ordered Lu Ju, Tang Zi, and Liu Zan to lead 10,000 horses and infantry each to respond in three directions. But when I heard the sound of a continuous cannon, I advanced together. I led the army from behind." Ding Feng received the order and immediately led three thousand navy soldiers into thirty ships, looking at Dongxing.

However, Hu Zun crossed the floating bridge and stationed his troops on the dike. He sent Huan Jia and Han Zong to attack the two cities. In the left city, the generals of Wu Duan guarded the commander, and in the right city, the generals of Wu Lulu guarded the commander. These two cities were high and strong, and they were eager to attack. Quan, Liu and the two men saw that the Wei soldiers were strong and did not dare to fight, so they defended the city to death. Hu Zun came to the camp in Xutang. It was cold and it was snowing heavily. Hu Zun and all the generals set up a high meeting. Suddenly, thirty warships arrived on the water. Zun went out of the village to look at it, and saw that the generals were on the shore, with about a hundred people on each ship. So he returned to the tent and said to the generals, "It's only three thousand people, so why are you afraid!" He ordered the generals to post and wait for a visit and drink.

Ding Feng threw the boat on the water, and said to his generals: "A real man has made great achievements and wealth, today!" So he ordered the soldiers to take off their armor, take off their helmets, do not use spears and halberds, and only carry short swords. The Wei soldiers laughed loudly when they saw it, and were even more unprepared. Suddenly, three consecutive cannons rang out, and Ding Feng pulled the knife first and jumped to the ashore. All the soldiers drew their short swords, followed Feng and chopped into Wei village, and the Wei soldiers caught them off guard. Han Zong quickly pulled the halberd in front of the tent.

Wearing this, Ding Feng had been snatched into his arms, and he had a knife and fell to the ground. Huan Jia turned out from the left and quickly stabbed Ding Feng, but was Feng held the gun. Jia abandoned the gun and left, Feng flew away with a knife, and hit the left shoulder. After Jia Wang, he fell down. Feng rushed to the place with a gun. Three thousand Wu soldiers rushed to the Wei village. Hu Zun rushed to the road and took the road. The Wei soldiers rushed to the floating bridge, but the floating bridge was broken, and most of them died in the water. Those who fell to the snow would not

Knowing the number of chariots, horses, and weapons were all captured by the Wu soldiers. Sima Zhao, Wang Chang, and Wuqiu Jian heard that Dongxing's troops were defeated, so he also retreated. However, Zhuge Ke led his troops to Dongxing, and after he was rewarded, he gathered the generals and said, "Sima Zhao's troops were defeated and returned north, and he was just right to take advantage of the situation to advance to the Central Plains." Then, he sent someone to Shu with a letter, asking Jiang Wei to advance to attack the north, and promised to divide the world equally. At the same time, he raised 200,000 troops to attack the Central Plains. Before leaving, he suddenly

Seeing a white air, he rose from the ground and blocked the three armies, but he did not see him opposite him. Jiang Yan said, "This air is Baihong, which is a sign of losing troops. The Grand Tutor can only return to the court, not attack Wei." Ke was furious and said, "How dare you make unfavorable words to slow down our army's morale!" He scolded the warriors to kill him. Everyone told him to dismiss him, but Ke demoted Jiang Yan to a commoner and still urged his troops to advance. Ding Feng said, "Wei regards the new city as the main pass. If we first obtain this city, Sima Shi will be brave."

Ke was very happy and rushed to Xincheng. Zhang Te, the general guarding the city, saw that the Wu soldiers arrived and held their doors behind closed doors. Ke ordered the soldiers to surround them from all sides.

A meteor horse had already reported to Luoyang. The chief clerk Yu Song told Sima Shi: "Now Zhuge Ke is trapped in the new city and cannot fight with him. Wu soldiers are far away, with too many people and too little food, and he will leave by himself. Wait until his generals leave, and then attack him, and he will win. But he is afraid that the Shu soldiers will invade the territory, so he must guard against it." The troops said this and ordered Sima Zhao to lead an army to help Guo Huai defend Jiang Wei; without Qiu Jian, Hu Zun refused to stop the Wu soldiers.

However, Zhuge Ke did not attack Xincheng for a month, and ordered all the generals: "To attack the city together, those who are negligent will be killed immediately." So the generals fought hard. The northeast corner of the city was about to fall. Zhang Te made a plan in the city: He ordered the quarrels who were slandering and went to Wuzhai to see Zhuge Ke, and said, "The law of Wei State: If the enemy traps the city, the generals of the city will hold on for 100 days without any rescue, and then go out of the city to surrender the enemy, the family will not be punished. The general has been besieging the city for more than 90 days. I hope to let him go for a few more days. A master general led all the soldiers and civilians out of the city to surrender. Now he will submit the book to the city first." Ke firmly believed it, and took the army and horses, but did not attack the city. It turned out that Zhang Te used a slow-down strategy to coax the Wu army, then demolished the houses in the city and repaired them in the broken city. Then he climbed up

The city cursed and said, "I have half a year's food in the city, how can I surrender Wu Gou? It's okay to fight all the battle!" Ke was furious and urged his troops to attack the city. The arrows shot down the city. Ke hit a arrow on his forehead and turned over and fell off the horse. The generals rescued him and returned to the camp. The golden wounds were raised. All the soldiers had no intention of fighting. Because the weather was too hot, the soldiers were sick. Ke wanted to urge his troops to attack the city. The camp officials told him, "Everyone is sick, how can they fight?" Ke said, "If you talk about the sick, behead him!" The soldiers heard that there were countless fleeing people. Suddenly, the generals reported that the army led the army to join Wei. Ke was shocked and rode horses to look at each camp. As expected, they saw that the soldiers looked yellow and swollen in their faces, and they all looked back with illness. So they ordered their troops to return to Wu. He had already reported that Wu Qiu Jian had all the soldiers. He then covered them with a lot of killing.

When the Wu army was defeated, Ke was very ashamed and refused to court. The Wu leader Sun Liang was very lucky to ask for his wishes at home, and all the civil and military officials came to pay their respects. Ke was afraid that people would discuss it, so he searched for the faults of the officials first, and sent them to the border at the least, and beheaded at the worst. So the bureaucrats inside and outside were all afraid.

He also ordered his confidant general Zhang Yue to take charge of the Imperial Army. He thought it was tooth and claws. However, he said that Sun Jun's courtesy name was Ziyuan, and he was the great-grandson of Sun Jian's younger brother Sun Jing and the son of Sun Gong. Sun Quan loved him very much and ordered him to take charge of the Imperial Army. Now he heard that Zhuge Ke ordered Zhang Yue to take charge of the Imperial Army and seized his power. He was furious. Taichang Qing Teng Yin, who had always had a slight relationship with Zhuge Ke, so he took the opportunity to say Jun: "Zhuge Ke was the only one who was powerless and abused, and killed the public ministers, and would have the intention of being unjust. The Gongzong Zong

Why not plan to him early in the room? "Jun said, "I have been thinking about this for a long time; now I will report to the emperor and ask for an order to punish him." So Sun Jun and Teng Yin came to see the Lord of Wu Sun Liang and reported to him secretly. Liang said, "I am also very scared when I see this person. I often want to get rid of him, but I have not obtained the right to do so. Now you are loyal and righteous, so you can plan to him secretly." Yin said, "Your Majesty can set up a seat to summon Ke, secretly hide the warrior in the wall cloak, throw a cup as a trumpet, and kill him in the table to eliminate future troubles." Liang followed it.

However, Zhuge Ke returned to the court after his defeat, and was ill at home. He was in a daze. One day, he occasionally went out of the central hall and suddenly saw a man wearing a silence in his arms. Ke scolded him and the man was at a loss. Ke ordered him to torture him. He told him, "I have lost my father because I have entered the city and asked a monk to recommend him. When I first saw that it was a temple, I didn't think it was the mansion of the Grand Tutor. How could I be born here?" Ke was furious and summoned the soldiers guarding the gate to ask him. The soldiers told him, "Does of people, all of whom have the sword, have not left for a while, and have not seen him.

One person came in." Ke was furious and beheaded them all. That night, Ke was sleeping and restless, and suddenly heard the sound of the main hall like thunder. Ke came out and looked at it, and saw the middle beam breaking into two sections. Ke was shocked to return to his bedroom. Suddenly, a gust of cold wind rose, and saw dozens of people killed in the Pima people and the gate guards, each asking for their lives. Ke fell to the ground in shock and had been washed. After a long time, he washed his face early and heard the water was very bloody and smelly. Ke scolded his maids and changed dozens of basins, which were all smelly. Ke was shocked and sued, and suddenly reported that the emperor had sent an envoy to the banquet.

Ke ordered a car to arrange a car. Just as he was about to leave the house, a yellow dog held his clothes and whimpered, as if crying. Ke said angrily, "The dog is playing with me!" He scolded him and drove him away, and then took the car out of the house. After walking for a few steps, he saw a white rainbow in front of the car, which rose from the ground, and ran away like Bai Lian soared into the sky. Ke was very surprised, and his confidant Zhang Yue entered the car and secretly told him, "Today, the banquet is held in the palace, and it is unknown whether it is good or bad, and the lord should not enter lightly."

After hearing this, Ke ordered to go back to the car. After walking less than ten steps, Sun Jun and Teng Yin rode their horses to the carriage and said, "Why did the Taifu go back?" Ke said, "I suddenly had a stomachache and couldn't see the emperor." Yin said, "The court returned as the Taifu army, but he never talked about it in person, so he held a special banquet to summon them to discuss major events. Although the Taifu felt that he was sick, he should force him to join him." Ke followed his words and then joined Sun Jun, Teng Yin and Zhang's answer.

Ke saw the Lord of Wu, and after he gave the tribute, he sat down at the table. Liang ordered the wine to enter. Ke was suspicious and said, "I can't drink the sick body." Sun Jun said, "You can take medicinal wine in the mansion of the Grand Tutor often. Can you drink it?" Ke said, "It's okay." Then he ordered people to return to the mansion to get the medicinal wine. Ke had just drunk it with confidence. After the wine came, he asked Sun Liang, the master of Wu, to get it in advance. Sun Jun went down to the palace, took off his long clothes, wore a short garment, and put on a ring armor. He went to the palace and shouted, "Heaven, God."

I have an edict to kill the rebels!" Zhuge Ke was shocked and threw the cup to the ground. He wanted to draw his sword to meet him. Zhang Yue saw Jun killing Ke and waved his sword to greet him. Jun quickly flashed past, and injured his left finger. Jun turned around and stabbed Zhang Yue's right arm. The warriors rushed out together, chopped Zhang Yue down, and chopped it into meat paste. Sun Jun ordered the warrior to take over Ke's family, but asked someone to wrap Zhang Yue and Zhuge Ke's body, wrapped it with reed mats, carried it out in a small cart, and abandoned it at the turmoil of Shizigang outside the south gate of the city.

In the pit, Zhuge Ke's wife was in a daze at the center of the room and was restless. Suddenly, a maid entered the room. Ke's wife asked, "How is your blood and smelly?" The maid suddenly turned her eyes and cried, jumped, hitting the beam of the roof, and shouted, "I am Zhuge Ke! I was murdered by the traitor Sun Jun!" Ke's family and young were crying in panic. At that time, the army and horses arrived, surrounded the mansion, tied up the whole family and young, and tied up the city to beheaded. At that time, the winter of the second year of Wu Jianxing

October. When Zhuge Jin was still alive, he saw that Ke was full of intelligence and sighed, "This son is not the head of the Bao family!" Zhang Ji, the chief official of Wei Guanglu, once said to Sima Shi, "Zhuge Ke will die soon." The master asked him why, Ji said, "How can he be powerful for a long time?" At this point, he said that Sun Jun killed Zhuge Ke, and the Wu Lord Sun Liang appointed Jun as prime minister, general, Fuchun Hou, and governor of military affairs in China and abroad. From then on, all power has been returned to Sun Jun.

Let’s talk about Jiang Wei’s letter in Chengdu and received Zhuge Ke’s letter. He wanted to help attack Wei, so he entered the court and reported to the latter lord, and then launched a large army to attack the Central Plains in the north.
