The Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a novel, not a real history, which is the fact that we must first understand. It is unfair to talk about historical figures according to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. In my opinion, Zhuge Liang is a politician with strong desire for power. After Liu Bei's death, all the power was monopolized by him, and Li Yan, the successor arranged by Liu Bei, was killed by him for a reason. However, it is probably unreasonable to say that he is unfaithful. The most fundamental reason is that he insists on using the banner of Han orthodoxy. Although it was later agreed with Dongwu that the two emperors would stand together and carve up Cao Wei's territory in advance, what Fei Yi said when he went to Dongwu exposed, or Zhuge's true intention (to the effect that if the king did not know his fate after the destruction of Wei, the two sides would beat drums and fight again). As we all know, Fei Yi, as an envoy of a country, it is really taboo to say such things. We can only think that this is the basic strategy of destroying Wei first. Zhuge Liang's adherence to the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty, just like Cao Cao's holding the emperor to make a vassal, will bring greater resistance to his self-reliance. Presumably, with Zhuge's cleverness, he should not do so. Besides, does Zhuge really get along with others? I'm afraid not. Zhuge should be self-reliant and harmonious with others. However, Zhuge ruled Shu according to law, and Shu people often complained that he gave the military power to Wei Yan, who he never trusted, instead of Jiang Wei, which shows that he was bent on the northern expedition. But! As mentioned in the article, I think Zhuge Liang is loyal to Shu Han, not Liu Bei, and his ambition is to establish a new regime governing the country according to law. This determines that he can't compromise like Sima, who occupies the general trend, but can only continue the Northern Expedition. To know what you can't do is to make a final effort for your ambition.

As for the proportion of Wolong in Feng Chu, I think Feng Chu's plan is really better. His death is only the so-called inevitable death of the general. There are some flaws in the author's argument in the article. For example, Pang Tong asked Wei Yan to be a former army, but he went deep into the unknown. It seems understandable to put a good soldier in the former army to prevent being intercepted. Zhuge Liang sent Guan Yu to Jingzhou, which can't be said to be sinister. Jingzhou is by the river, and Shu Han can take the water army to fight. Guan Yu didn't seem to discuss the feasibility with Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang when he attacked Fancheng. Liu Bei was attacking Hanzhong at that time. All the advisers either dealt with civil affairs in surprisingly, or attacked Cao Wei with troops. It is impossible to go to Jingzhou to assist Guan Yu. Guan Yu's death was just a politically naive Guan Yu. Conspiracy theory is not established.
