Is Kong Ming s military ability in history really scum?

As one of the most famous figures of the Three Kingdoms era, Zhuge Liang has become a label in Chinese history and a part of Chinese culture.

Zhuge Liang has long been known to the world as a politician, diplomat and inventor, so how much is he outstanding as a military strategist?

Today we will talk about Zhuge Liang's military command talent.

First of all, we must explain that Zhuge Liang in history is different from the Zhuge Liang who can pinch and calculate and can do everything in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Zhuge Liang in history did not have such magical deeds as "burning Bowang", "burning Xinye", "borrowing arrows from grass boats" and "borrowing east wind".

Zhuge Liang in history is more like a rigorous military strategist.

It was not until after Liu Bei's death that Liu Chan, the queen of Shu, ascended the throne, that Zhuge Liang began to emerge at the military level.

Zhuge Liang's most important achievement was to train the Shu army into a disciplined, well-equipped, and ideologically sound army.

Historically, in the Han Dynasty, the military strength of the north against the south was crushing, because the south had a small population and a lack of war horses, and talents were concentrated in the north.

However, Zhuge Liang trained the Sichuan people into an "iron army", and he called for "restoring the Han family", which greatly stimulated the combat effectiveness of the army, and the equipment he designed and manufactured was also unique at that time.

This made Zhuge Liang "go against the sky" and use the Shu army to chase the powerful army of Cao Wei in the north.

Sima Yi sat on 200,000 "Yongliang soldiers", but he was beaten by Zhuge Liang's Shu army of less than 100,000 and did not dare to go out.

Zhuge Liang used soldiers, and the Northern Expedition lasted for 6 years, but in the end he returned in vain, and he died of illness in Wuzhangyuan.

It is inappropriate for some people to belittle Zhuge Liang's military talent because of the futility of his Northern Expedition for many years, as mentioned earlier, Zhuge Liang is a weak attack on the strong, and he takes the initiative to attack, which actually shows his military ability.

In the Tang Dynasty, Zhuge Liang was one of the "Ten Philosophers", and his status was higher than that of many famous generals of the same era, which was the best proof of his military strength.

Of course, no one is perfect, we insist on picking bones from "eggs" and looking for Zhuge Liang's fault, then there is only one "conspiracy is short". This sentence comes from Chen Shou, the author of "Three Kingdoms", Chen Shou believes that Zhuge Liang is good at governing the army, but he is not good at commanding the enemy to win by surprise.

This statement is not unreasonable, Zhuge Liang has taken a steady path in the past 6 years, and he has never been willing to take risks, which may be the threshold that hinders him from becoming a super famous general like Bai Qi Hanxin.

But from another point of view, Zhuge Liang is not only a "general", but also a prime minister is a politician, as the pillar of Shu Han, he is responsible for the country if he does not take risks, once he fails, then the consequences will be unimaginable.

Kong Ming's military ability is actually not bad, he once led 100,000 troops to defeat Sima Yi, and in the Northern Expedition War, he did not fail every time, there were victories and defeats, but failure does not mean that his military ability is poor, it can only be said that the forces of Shu are too weak.

I don't think Kong Ming is weak militarily, because he is a very scheming person and can have a lot of strategies in military affairs, so his military ability is not weak.

Not scum, because Zhuge Liang has strong military ability, and every Northern Expedition makes Cao Wei lose talents.

I think Zhuge Liang's military ability in history is not scum, whether it is from the capture of Jingzhou in the Battle of Chibi or the capture of Dingjun Mountain, it can be seen that Zhuge Liang's military talent is very strong, and only a capable person like him can make Liu Bei develop.

First name. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang, a military strategist and politician of the Shu Han Dynasty, was known as Kongming. There is also the character Kong Ming in "Water Margin", one of the hundred and eight generals of Liangshan, ranked sixty-second, and is located in the Earth Evil Star.

Kong Ming is the table character of Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period. In the narrative part of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Zhuge Liang is called "Kong Ming". Kong Ming (July 23, 181 - August 28, 234), known as Wolong (also known as Fulong), Han nationality, a native of Langya Yangdu (now Yinan County, Linyi City, Shandong), was the prime minister of Shu Han, and an outstanding politician, strategist, inventor and military strategist during the Three Kingdoms period.

When he was alive, he was named the Marquis of Wuxiang, and he was said to be loyal to the Marquis of Wu; In order to admire Zhuge Liang's military talents, the later Eastern Jin Dynasty regime posthumously named him the king of Wuxing. His representative works include "The Table of the Former Teacher", "The Table of the Later Teacher", "The Book of Commandments" and so on. Invented wooden oxen and flowing horses, Kong Ming lanterns, etc.

Chengdu has Wuhou Temple. In addition, the great poet Du Fu has a famous article "Shu Xiang" handed down. For details, see the encyclopedia entry "Zhuge Liang".

Liu Bei's military advisor Zhuge Liang is actually not as good as in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, his military ability is only average, and Zhuge Liang's administrative ability is his specialty.

Very strong. Because Zhuge Kongming's art of war is like a god, and he rarely defeats battles, his military ability is very strong.

Personally, I think Zhuge Liang's political talent is excellent, and he can know people well, and the most important thing is that he analyzes the situation very accurately, etc.

Zhuge Liang's combat effectiveness is very strong. Especially after Liu Bei established the Shu State, Zhuge Liang can be said to have supported everything by himself.
