Zhuge Liang's first cut to the Wei Dynasty, like a broken bamboo, in just a few months, he occupied the three counties of Tianshui, Nan'an and Anding in Longyou, and captured Chang'an in a big way. The situation of the Central Plains. However, Emperor Ming Emperor Cao Rui of Wei Ming re-activated Sima Yi and General Zhang Xun, who led an army of 150,000 to occupy the important military area Jieting, and crushed Zhuge Liang's first attack on Wei. After Zhuge Liang lost the street pavilion, he could only use the empty city plan to retreat in a hurry. So, Jieting is related to the entire battle, so important, why didn't Zhuge Liang send three generals, Zhao Yun, Wei Yan, and Jiang Wei, to guard, but instead reuse Ma Di who has no experience in leading troops alone? Based on the history, the analysis is as follows.
赵云
When Sima Yi and Zhang Yun led their troops to take the Jieting, Zhao Yun was dispatched by Zhuge Liang to Shi Jigu as a partial division of Cao Wei. Although Zhao Yun was serious and neat, he was far away in Jigu and couldn't quench his thirst. Therefore, Zhuge Liang did not consider sending the veteran and prudent Zhao Yun to guard the street pavilion. After Jie Ting's miss, Zhuge Liang suffered heavy losses when the rest of the army retreated, but when Zhao Yun and Deng Zhi's army retreated back to Chengdu, they did not lose one person or one horse, nor did they lose their food, grass, and equipment. Zhuge Liang was happy to meet them. The relevant description in the novel is as follows:
The two are about to get up, and suddenly report the arrival of Zhao Yun and Deng Zhi, and they have not broken one person and one ride; the luggage and other equipment are also missing. Kong Ming was overjoyed and invited the generals to welcome him.
魏延
Wei Yan is the best candidate to guard the street pavilion. If he guards the street pavilion, he is foolproof. However, Zhuge Liang believed that Wei Yan had bones in the back of his head. When he first defected to Liu Bei, he was almost executed by Zhuge Liang. But this incident left a deep impression on Wei Yan. He always remembered that he had been targeted by Zhuge Liang and was not trusted by Zhuge Liang. When Zhuge Liang attacked Wei for the first time, he reused Ma Di to guard the street pavilion and Gao Xiang to guard Lieliu City, only letting Wei Yan be stationed behind the street pavilion. Wei Yan was not convinced, thinking that he was a vanguard general, how was he left idle, was fooled by Zhuge Liang's clever words, and happily went to station behind the street pavilion. The relevant description in the novel is as follows:
Then Wei Yan is called to lead the troops to the street pavilion and then go to the station. Yan said: "A certain is the front, it is reasonable to break the enemy first, so why put a certain in a peaceful place?" Kong Ming said: "It is a matter of favor for the front to break the enemy. Now you are ordered to meet the street pavilion, and when Yang Ping Guan Chong Yao Road, always guarding the throat in Hanzhong, this is a great responsibility. What is peace? Don't take it lightly and lose me. You should be careful!"
The above arrangement of Zhuge Liang clearly shows that he does not trust Wei Yan, put it in an unimportant place, and re-use you in the name. Just imagine, if the street pavilion has been lost and Wei Yan becomes passive, can he regain the street pavilion? is that useful? This kind of situation is often encountered in the unit. If there are important tasks and good jobs, the leaders give priority to their direct relatives, while the others can only do hard and tiring tasks. It is also known that you work hard and are not afraid Don't be afraid of being tired.
姜维
Jiang Wei had no choice but to surrender to Zhuge Liang in the battle of Tianshui. Whether he surrendered sincerely is still unknown. At this time, Jiang Wei, although on the surface surrendered to the Shu Han, who knows whether it is true or false, in case he comes to a "being in the camp of Shu, and the heart is in Wei", at the critical moment, hand over the street pavilion to Sima Yi and Zhang Yun, who Zhuge Liang will look for Reason. If Wei Yan is not Zhuge Liang's cronies, but just ordinary subordinates, then Jiang Weilian's general subordinates have not passed through, are still in the probation period, and failed the assessment. Therefore, Zhuge Liang could not send Jiang Wei, who had just surrendered, to guard the street pavilion. The relevant description in the novel is as follows:
Kong Ming called Jiang Wei and said: "Boyue, why don't you surrender at this time?" Wei searched for a long time. There was Kong Ming in the front and Xing in the back, and there was no way to go, so he had to dismount and surrender.
马谡
Ma Di followed Zhuge Liang early in the war in the south and made plans for Zhuge Liang, many of which coincided with Zhuge Liang’s heart. , He and Chang Shi Yang Yi are Zhuge Liang's true henchmen. Zhuge Liang launched a battle to capture Meng Huo seven times after Liu Bei died of an illness. Ma Di’s “attack the city as the bottom and the heart as the top” coincided with Zhuge Liang's desires, which made Zhuge Liang favored.
This time, Ma Di took the initiative to ask for a battle. Zhuge Liang believed that Ma Di could freely read the military books and commanded many battles with him and was competent. He also knew that Ma Di had too little actual combat, and this time he focused on the idea of cultivating Ma Di, so after Ma Di issued a military order, he and Wang Ping were asked to guard the military powerhouse. The relevant description in the novel is as follows:
Zhan said: "Xiu Dao Sima Yi and Zhang Xi, it is Cao Rui who came to kiss him, what's the fear! If there is a mistake, beg to cut the whole family." Kong Ming said: "There is no joke in the army. ." Zhan said: "I wish to establish a military order." Kong Ming followed it. He then wrote a military order and submitted it.
Before Liu Bei was dying, he had asserted that Ma Di had a false name and could not be reused, but Zhuge Liang did not believe it and reused Ma Di, but lost Jie Ting. The first time Wei Gong was defeated. This is Zhuge Liang's own guilt and the consequences, so he can only kill Ma Di with tears.
Summary: Because Zhao Yun was sent to Jigu by Zhuge Liang to attract the attention of Cao Wei’s army as a suspected soldier, Wei Yan was rebellious and not trusted, Jiang Wei just returned and was still in the assessment period, he had no choice but to choose himself The trustworthy horses guard the military powerhouse street pavilion. Even Wang Ping, the lieutenant who followed Ma Di, could still hold the street pavilion.
