Zhuge Liang is a controversial figure. When Mr. Shuijing heard that Zhuge Liang came out of the mountain, he sighed and said that he was born at the wrong time, and Shuijing knew the ending of "often making heroes cry" from the beginning. Let's talk about the romance of the Three Kingdoms first, not about history and materialism. Wolong's road number has explained his mentality, and he can have his own ambitions. It's a pity that the weather is wrong, so he can only sit at the head of Wollongong alone and let his thoughts gallop. Mr Zhuge's most controversial issue is his use and cultivation of new talents. The loss of Jingzhou and Jieting affected the whole strategic layout. These two major turning points are all due to their mistakes in employing people. Let's take a look at the generals in West Shu. Apart from the five tiger generals and Wei Yan, it is difficult to count people. When the five tiger generals died one by one, the general camp in West Shu became clearer. Here, I want to discuss it from another aspect and see if it is really like what you see from the book. Besides, Guan Yunchang guarding Jingzhou. Now everyone commented that Guan Yunchang was too stubborn and arrogant to obey anyone, which brought disaster. But as we all know, things are constantly moving, and contradiction is the inherent law of things' development. No matter who guards Jingzhou, there will definitely be a big war in the end, because Jingzhou is an important strategic pass. However, looking at the results of Guan Zhen's guarding, Jingzhou has been guarding for decades, without disasters and waves. What is this? Because of Guan Yunchang. Guan Yunchang is the god of war, and no one wants to break ground at the traditional age. What's more, Guan Yu likes reading Spring and Autumn Annals, so who is in Spring and Autumn Annals? Lu's chronicle. It can be seen that Guan Yu himself is capable of writing and fighting. As such a general, other countries and counties will not attack Jingzhou unless they have to. What if someone else is watching? Will it reach the result of Guan Yunchang? For who? If you were Zhuge, who would you choose? Of course Zhang Fei can't. Maybe someone will say, isn't there Zhao Yun? This is the problem. Zhuge is a man who is very considerate of his master Liu Bei. He is a very qualified staff officer. He only participates in politics, not in power. In this regard, I will discuss it below and just mention it here. Zhuge chose Guan Yunchang because he was Liu Bei's righteous brother and the most trusted person, and Liu Bei's intention at that time was to choose Guan Yu. Of course, the situation forced the army to give up, and Jingzhou was the only guarantee. If Jingzhou falls, Liu Bei may be caught between Scylla and Charybdis, and he is likely to return to the point of being defeated by others. What's more, people may be beheaded. Therefore, Jingzhou must not be lost, and there must be capable people guarding it. Although Zhao Yun is also a warrior, he lacks the majesty of Guan Yu. It can be seen from the whole Three Kingdoms that Guan Yu is a god. Facts have proved that choosing Guan Yunchang is a very wise choice. Not only was Jingzhou foolproof in the first few years when the army entered Xichuan, but Jingzhou remained stable after Liu Bei officially became the king of Shu. There are no absolute things in the world. We can't deny Guan Yu's achievements because he lost Jingzhou, which he guarded for decades, when he was 58 years old and Chi Mianma was 32 years old, nor can we say that Zhuge made mistakes in employing people because Yun Chang lost Jingzhou. Do you want others to see it? Maybe not for a few years. Ma Su beheaded in the Lost Street Pavilion, which was also a great blow to Zhuge itself. Why did Zhuge choose Ma Su at that time? Wang Ping, the assistant general in the book, seems to have a slightly higher strategy and ingenuity than Ma Wei. Moreover, Wang Ping is not a simple person. He revealed his name in many places, often pointing out the coach's strategic mistakes. So what our descendants see, Zhuge can't see it? There are many problems here that need our careful analysis. First of all, is it appropriate for Wang Ping to be the deputy commander and Wang Ping to be the main commander? Won't you make such a mistake? We have never been able to verify this point, except for an old saying: the authorities are fascinated and the bystanders are clear. It is precisely because Wang Ping is in a non-decision-making position that he can analyze the situation very carefully and logically. What will happen if Wang Ping is put in the position of commander-in-chief? Could it be worse? It can be seen that Zhuge has considered the existence of risks, so Wang Ping is useless. In addition, the book also explains that Ma Su became a master because of Ma Liang. Zhuge is a very caring person. This is much better than some leaders turning their faces and denying people. There are many leadership styles in management science, and the two most extreme examples are complete centralization and complete decentralization. Zhuge has used both of these leadership styles and used them on different people. It can be seen that Zhuge himself still knows the essence of management For high-level talents like Ma Liang and Ma Su, it is understandable to adopt a democratic and people-oriented leadership style. On weekdays, Ma Su often discussed problems and the war situation with Zhuge, and Ma Su was Zhuge's good friend at that time. Under such circumstances, who would Zhuge choose if the war suddenly came? Masu just lacks actual combat. After all, there is a big difference between actual combat and theory, so Masu lost. This brings out another controversial shortcoming of Zhuge Liang, who will not train new talents and will do everything by himself. In addition to the number of papers and projects undertaken at or above the provincial level, the current talent evaluation system also has an important content: development potential. Liu Bei's concept is relatively backward. At first, he has been fleeing from east to west, and there is not even a foothold. Even if there is, it's somebody else's territory. Who would go to such a master? After Zhuge came out of the mountain, he finally found a place for Liu Huangshu, but he found it was too late. After arriving in Xishu, it is more difficult to find talents with high IQ because of its remote location and sparse population. To cultivate successors, loyalty is more important on the one hand, but also depends on his development potential. With a bad geographical position, it is difficult to find talents, let alone top talents. On the one hand, the geographical position of Shu is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and the geographical position is far from Sun and Cao, so the road is difficult to walk, but on the other hand, the bad side is also obvious. So, can we understand that it's not that Zhuge doesn't want to train talents, there is really no one to train them, and it's not that Zhuge doesn't want to find a right-hand man, and he really can't find top talents with development potential. Finally, Mr. Kong Ming had to settle for the second best, trying to impart his lifelong skills to Jiang Wei. Unfortunately, Jiang Wei's understanding was limited, and he ended up being defeated and killed. From this point of view, it is very understandable that Zhuge did everything himself, especially the conquest of the Qiang nationality, which made Meng Huo prostrate, because it was a first-class event in terms of the situation at that time. If Zhuge doesn't do this top priority, what else can he do? As I said before, Zhuge is a very qualified staff officer, but he does not take power in politics. Why? We might as well look at Liu Bei's defeat in the fire. Liu Bei lost his righteous brother and made a personal expedition. Zhuge warned Liu Bei not to send troops, but Liu Bei insisted on going out. How did Zhuge react? I tried my best to discourage it, and even cried. Today's opinion says why Zhuge didn't go out with Liu Bei? Or already know that sending troops will be thankless. Why did Liu Bei send troops? Then ask, Liu Beida or Zhuge Da? Zhuge is the best official, and Liu Bei is his master. He will listen to Liu Bei in the end. Besides, as we said before, there are too few talents in West Shu. If Liu Bei and Zhuge play in Wu Jun at the same time, who will defend West Shu? According to the present situation, one of the two people must look after the house. Liu Bei is going to war, which can only be Zhuge's defense. No one can blame Liu Bei for his failure, except that he did not listen to Zhuge. From this point of view, Zhuge is a very competent aide. He can point out the advantages and disadvantages of the decision to the master and make his own suggestions, but he will not hesitate to implement the master's final decision, even if it goes against his will. Wu Zhuge died. In my opinion, his cause of death was "karoshi". I watched the news the other day and said that most of the current researchers are facing the crisis of "karoshi". Therefore, it is not surprising that Zhuge Liang, a mental worker who worked day and night in military affairs, died of overwork. It can only be said that Zhuge has been engaged in civil service for a long time. He was in poor health when he was young, let alone when he was old. Wei Yan's reaction is normal from the perspective of probability theory. Because there are not a few people who run counter to other monarchs and surrender, it is completely acceptable to have one or two people in Xishu barracks. It is not entirely because of Zhuge's oppression of Wei Yan or his distrust of Wei Yan. Only by being meticulous, without desire and ego, indifferent and wise, quiet and far-reaching, can Zhuge's psychological state be truly reflected. Work hard in everything, but don't care about fame and fortune; One model is detailed domestic politics, but Liu Chan is always respected; Thousands of troops rushed ahead, but they could keep their faces unchanged; They have the Liu family, but they never cross the line. Taoism says that seeing through the world of mortals and living in a hot intestine, Zhuge's ideological realm is an almost insurmountable mountain peak for modern people.
