In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhang Bao feels like a young hero. White robe and silver armor, high martial arts, no empty arrows. Liu Bei sent troops to attack Wu, with Guan Xing as the pioneer, and made outstanding achievements. After Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, Zhang Bao and Guan Xing were both effective generals. Three trips to the battle of Qishan, chasing Guo Huai and Sun Li, fell into the stream with men and horses, and died below his head. Zhuge Liang burst into tears, vomited blood in his mouth and fainted to the ground. So I'm sick and bedridden. Forced to interrupt the Northern Expedition and return to Chengdu to recuperate. Luo Guanzhong also asked later generations to write a poem, lamenting: "Zhang Bao, who is brave, wants to make contributions, and the poor gods don't help heroes! Wu Hou shed tears in the west wind, and no one helped him. " But the record of Zhang Bao in the official history is only "the eldest son died young." Just five words. After Zhang Fei's death, his second sons Shao Si and Zhang Bao died before Zhang Fei was killed. Zhang Xing's story is probably that the storyteller thinks that Zhang Fei's death is a regret that is not worth making up a tail. Zhang xing revenges his father, and the audience is psychologically balanced.
Later, Zhang Shao became an official, serving middle school officials and ministers, and was an important official of Shu Han. Of course, sisters are queens, and as a prince's uncle, officials can't be small. For the consorts and eunuchs of the Han Dynasty, it was a disaster to control the political power. There are eunuchs doing evil in Liu Chan, but there is no record of consorts interfering in politics. Zhang Shao seems to be honest. It's just that Zhang Fei is a famous soldier of Shu Han, but his son has no shadow of a military commander. Zhuge Liang came out of Qishan six times, and Zhang Shao may be young, but after Jiang Wei cut the Central Plains nine times, there was no Zhang Shao in the battle.
Zhuge Zhan defeated Mianzhu and committed suicide. At the same time, Zhao Yun's son Zhao Guang, Huang Quan's son Huang Chong, Li Hui's nephew Li Qiu, Zhuge Zhan's son Zhuge Shang, Zhang Bao's son Zhang Zun and others died one after another. Zhang Shao played a disgraceful role in the process of conquering Shu Han. Liu Chan sent Zhang Shao, Qiao Zhou and Deng Liang as envoys to surrender to Wargo in Wei Ying, Luo County.
"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" wrote: Here, Ai is welcome. The three men prostrated themselves at the steps and declared their surrender. Ai opened the book and looked at it with ecstasy. He accepted the decree and treated Zhang Shao and others with great kindness. Ai wrote back and sent three people back to Chengdu to reassure people. The three men bowed to Wargo and returned to Chengdu. They went to see the late Lord and submitted a final letter detailing Wargo's kindness to each other. . . I really don't know what Zhang Shao was feeling at that time. Have you thought about his father Zhang Fei and his nephew Zhang Zun? Zhang Shao later went to Luoyang with Liu Chan, and was named a liehou by Cao Wei, continuing his extravagant life.
