    Speaking of the general trend of the world, it will be together for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time. "From the unification of the Seven Kingdoms by the Qin Dynasty, to the struggle between Chu and Han at the end of Qin, and then to the end of the Han Dynasty. And "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" uses vivid images to tell the history of the Three Kingdoms Wei, Shu and Wu in this period.

    It is true that each country has its own rise and fall of each country, let's talk about it, after Liu Bei's death, why did Zhuge Liang lose many battles? Jiang Wei explained the reason before he died.

    In the first aspect, Shu has gradually become unavailable. Before Liu Bei's death, Ma Chao was killed by Sima Yi, and Huang Zhong was killed by several arrows in Eastern Wu. After Liu Bei's death, none of the three Taoyuan brothers survived, and only Zhao Yun was left among the five tiger generals, and Zhao Yun also died of illness before the last Northern Expedition, and there were few talents left in Shu.

    As the saying goes, "one general is worth three armies", and what is most needed to lead troops to fight is talent, and at this time, the talents of Shu are gradually thinning, so the national strength is constantly weakening.

    Second, after Liu Bei's death, Liu Chan succeeded to the throne. The relationship between Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang is not as good as the relationship between Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang. And Liu Chan didn't have such trust in Zhuge Liang, and actually let Zhuge Liang return to the dynasty during the Northern Expedition, which delayed the fighters of the Northern Expedition.

    You must know how important time is in war, especially on the battlefield, even if it is only for a moment and a half, it may lead to the defeat of the war, but Liu Chan called Zhuge Liang back to the palace at this time, delaying the fighter. At the same time, we also know the sentence "will be outside the king's life will not be affected", but Liu Chan listened to slander and could not give Zhuge Liang enough trust, if you can't trust your own general, you will give others a chance to take advantage of, isn't this also one of the reasons for failure?

    The third aspect, as Jiang Wei said before he died, "I can't do it, it's the destiny of heaven", when Zhuge Liang decided to burn Sima Yi and lure Sima Yi into the trap with a trick, Sima Yi fell into the trap, but it rained when victory was in sight, making all efforts in vain. Maybe that's the same state of mind for Zhuge Liang.

    The time is not as good as the place, and the place is not as good as the people". The time was delayed due to Liu Chan's distrust, but it rained in the place where Sima Yi was burned, but the distrust of the monarch and the lack of generals, so there was no time, no location, no people, this helplessness, quite "the sky died me, not the crime of war." "Helpless.

    After Liu Bei's death, Zhuge Liang was defeated repeatedly because there were no generals available, and he knew that Adou couldn't support him, so he suffered more defeats.

    Because of the gradual decline in the strength of the Shu State, many talented people either grew old or died, and they were simply unable to defeat the powerful Wei State.

    Because at this time, Shu no longer had particularly good generals, and Shu broke with Wu and had become the weakest of the three kingdoms.

    Zhuge Liang was a military advisor, and his actual combat ability and on-the-spot military command ability were not as good as Liu Bei's, so he was defeated.

    In the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang can be said to be the embodiment of wisdom. Liu Bei invited him out of the mountain when he visited the thatched cottage three times, Zhuge Liang proposed to Liu Bei a plan to divide the world, and in the battle of Chibi, Liu Bei assisted Sun Quan in defeating Cao's army, and established the situation of the Three Kingdoms in one fell swoop. After Liu Bei became emperor, Zhuge Liang was named prime minister and was in charge of the grain and grass in the rear for Liu Bei.

    After Liu Bei's death, the White Emperor was lonely in Zhuge Liang, and Zhuge Liang inherited the will of the first emperor, and waved the Northern Expedition five times, which was immense, but in the end they all ended in failure.

    The reason why Zhuge Liang's five Northern Expeditions all ended in failure.

    First, because Zhuge Liang was unladylike, he mistakenly used Ma Jian to lose the street pavilion, misused Li Yan to escort grain and grass, and delayed the fighter.

    The second is because there is no successor to Shu Han and there is a lack of military talents.

    Third, because Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition had to cross the Qinling Mountains, and the logistics support was insufficient.

    Fourth, because Cao Wei is becoming more and more powerful, Shu Han is difficult to shake.

    Zhuge Liang repeatedly delayed the fighter plane because of unsatisfactory employment during the Northern Expedition. In the first Northern Expedition, Zhuge Liang beat Cao Wei by surprise and originally had the upper hand, but he mistakenly used Ma Tan to garrison the street pavilion, and as a result, Ma Tan insisted on going his own way, did not obey Zhuge Liang's command, and lost the street pavilion. Later, Zhuge Liang ordered Li Yan to escort grain and grass, but Li Yan failed to deliver grain and grass on time, and finally the Shu Han army could only retreat.

    When Liu Bei was alive, there were fierce generals in the Shu Han camp, such as Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong and other fierce generals, but when Zhuge Liang waved the Northern Expedition, only Zhao Yun was left, and there were only a handful of effective generals in the Shu Han camp, so it was difficult for Zhuge Liang to succeed in his crusade against Cao Wei under such difficult conditions.

    In ancient wars, soldiers and horses were not moved, and grain and grass went first, and every time Zhuge Liang waved his army to attack Cao Wei's Guanlong area, he had to cross the Qinling Mountains, where the terrain was steep and the traffic was very inconvenient, this kind of terrain was very unchanged for the actions of the Shu army, especially in the transportation of grain and grass, which was very difficult, so Zhuge Liang returned to Guanzhong many times because of grain and grass problems.

    After Liu Bei lost Jingzhou, in fact, Shu Han occupied only Yizhou, far less than Cao Cao in terms of territory, Cao Cao occupied Jizhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Youzhou, Yongzhou, in addition to Liangzhou, the origin of military horses, so the Shu Han at that time manpower, material and financial resources were far from being comparable with Cao Wei, and as Cao Wei became more and more powerful, Shu Han also lost the opportunity to compete with Cao Wei.

    After Liu Bei's death, Zhuge Liang waved his army to the Northern Expedition five times, and the momentum was mighty. However, Zhuge Liang was not a lady, and mistakenly used Ma Tan to garrison the street pavilion, delaying the fighter plane, which led to the failure of the First Northern Expedition. Later, Li Yan was misused, the grain and grass could not be delivered in time, the logistics support was insufficient, and it ended in failure again.

    And with the passage of time, the older generation of generals quit the dance troupe, Shu Han had no successor, there were only a handful of young generals, and the strength gap between Shu Han and Cao Wei was getting bigger and bigger, Cao Wei became stronger and stronger, and finally Zhuge Liang's five Northern Expeditions all ended in failure.

    It can be said that Zhuge Liang is a very capable person, but why did he return from 5 defeats to no avail? In fact, Jiang Wei's dying words can see the truth, you must know that Jiang Wei is a wizard under Zhuge Liang's command when he captured Wei, and Jiang Wei became Zhuge Liang's heir after Zhuge Liang's death, but in the end he said before he died: I can't do it, but I recognize the destiny of heaven!

    Many people think that this sentence is just a complaint, but in fact, it is not the Mandate of Heaven referred to here, it refers to the Shu Han Emperor Liu Chan, Zhuge Liang and Jiang Wei have failed to succeed in several Northern Expeditions, in fact, the reason is only to blame the queen Liu Chan.

    You must know that when Zhuge Liang went on the Northern Expedition, the military and political power of the whole country was in the hands of the emperor, and Liu Chan as Liu Bei's son was not a fictitious appearance, his talent was also very high, Zhuge Liang made several Northern Expeditions, but the grain and grass transported were all controlled by the emperor, if it wasn't for Liu Chan to restrain Zhuge Liang in terms of grain and grass, then Zhuge Liang would not have been forced to invent the wooden ox and flowing horse, all of this was forced by the emperor, Liu Chan did this because he wanted to live in a corner and be his happy emperor with peace of mind, The manpower and material resources consumed by the Northern Expedition are too great, and whether it is successful or not, it will shake the foundation of Shu Han, so Jiang Wei will say this sentence when he dies.

    Because Zhuge Liang was already relatively old at this time, his intelligence in all aspects was not as good as before.

    Because in the later period, when Zhuge Liang began to assist Liu Chan, Liu Chan did not reuse Zhuge Liang and trust Zhuge Liang like Liu Bei, coupled with some external factors, Zhuge Liang has always been a loser. It is obvious that after Liu Chan succeeded to the throne, he did not show enough support and trust in Zhuge Liang at all. Liu Chan would not hesitate to side with Zhuge Liang in the court, on the contrary, he would listen to gossip and question Zhuge Liang.

    In the face of such a Liu Adou who couldn't be helped, Zhuge Liang slowly became tired, and he was no longer free to show his intelligence as he was before Liu Bei's reign. Because he was suppressed, many of his tricks and tactics were not supported, so he gradually lost his strength before he was defeated.

    Previously, Zhuge Liang was so invincible, but later because of Li Yan's existence, Zhuge Liang had to give up a great opportunity to continue the attack. During the Northern Expedition,Due to Li Yan's mistakes in work, the army had no food to eat, and the army could no longer continue to fight without food and clothing. If we don't withdraw, these people will all have to die here.

    Faced with this predicament, Zhuge Liang could only choose to withdraw his troops and stop the attack.

    But unexpectedly, Li Yan turned out to be a very insidious and irresponsible person. After returning to the court, in front of Liu Chan, Li Yan blamed Zhuge Liang for all his mistakes, saying that the grain and grass were not insufficient, and that this was only done to create a false impression for the enemy. This time, Liu Chan believed Li Yan's words and asked Zhuge Liang to give him an explanation.

    Zhuge Liang was already discouraged in his heart at this time, and he was already very uncomfortable in his heart after losing this battle. Far from understanding him, his own monarch denounced him in the same way.

    From then on, Zhuge Liang was no longer as confident as before, and his heart began to waver. In addition, in the late Shu Kingdom, there were not many talents left to use, so he was defeated.

    Because Liu Bei is a wiser monarch, after Liu Bei's death, his son Liu Chan succeeded to the throne, Liu Chan is relatively mediocre, Zhuge Liang in military battles, sometimes worry about Liu Chan, so he will be distracted, which affects Zhuge Liang will be defeated in every battle.

    Because although Liu Bei entrusted the foundation to Zhuge Liang, some of the generals who led the troops to fight were not convinced, and they disobeyed Zhuge Liang's orders, so they always lost the battle.
