    The ** of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has been widely circulated among the Chinese people and has a far-reaching influence, including "Taoyuan Three Knots", "Liu Bei Sangu Thatched House", "Zhuge Liang Burns Xinye", "Zhuge Liang Borrowed the East Wind in the Battle of Red Cliffs", and burned Sima Yi in the upper valley in "Six Out ......of Qi Mountain"., all show Zhuge Liang's extraordinary wisdom and fierce loyalty to Liu Bei's Shu Han regime, bow to the best, and die.

    Sima Yi is a member of Cao Cao's favorite generals, both civil and military, brave and strategic, and able to fight well. And his life span is super strong, he has survived four generations of Cao Cao's children and grandchildren, made great contributions to the Cao Wei regime, and at the same time used intrigues and tricks to take away the power of the great benefactor Cao family for several generations, and finally became the founding father of the Jin State who was the unification of the Three Kingdoms.

    Zhuge Liang had to throw Sima Yi a few streets in terms of strategy, military affairs, and loyalty to the monarch and patriotism. But the plan is in the people, and the success is in the sky, Zhuge Liang has already explained through the "lesson before the horse": the first lesson before the horse, the power to return to the sky, do your best, yin and yang, eight thousand female ghosts.

    In the second lesson before the horse, there is fire on the fire, the wax is in the earth, the name is not right, and there is a tiger in Jiangdong. ”

    The first lesson has already made it clear, "powerless to return to heaven......, Eight Thousand Female Ghosts", which was taken over by Wei at the end of the Han Dynasty; Lesson 2 has already stated, "There is fire on fire......, there are tigers in Jiangdong", Sima Yan usurped Emperor Wei Yuan to build Jiangdong Jiankang. It shows that the will of God is like this, and it is powerless to reverse it.

    So why did Zhuge Liang continue his Northern Expedition? The main thing is to repay Liu Bei's kindness, loyalty, and dedication, reflecting a word of loyalty. What we really do is to "do our best and obey the destiny of God".

    Why have people been able to speak highly of Zhuge Liang for thousands of years? is that he can faithfully do his best and obey the destiny of heaven, although he knows the result, he is still loyal to Liu Bei's father and son, shining the sun and the moon.

    Therefore, in history, Zhuge Liang vs Sima Yi in the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang is definitely superior. In any aspect, Sima Yi is inferior to Zhuge Liang.

    In the Three Kingdoms in history, Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi, I think Zhuge Liang is better, because I think Zhuge Liang is very righteous in terms of qualifications and in terms of dealing with people, so I think Zhuge Liang has more advantages.

    Zhuge Liang is even better, Sima Yi did not win a complete victory when Cao Wei's strength absolutely crushed Shu Han, which means that Zhuge Liang is better than him.

    In the Three Kingdoms in history, Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi were opponents, and Zhuge Liang still had to be better. Because Zhuge Liang defeated Sima Yi many times.

    Of course, Zhuge Liang is better, Zhuge Liang can help Liu Bei divide the world with his own ability.

    Zhuge Liang has a slight advantage, because although Sima Yi's grave has not been excavated, its location has been determined, and Zhuge Liang's grave is still unknown.

    Whether it's great or not, it depends on which aspect. In my opinion, Sima Yi is powerful, but Zhuge Liang is even more popular. The most respected thing in traditional Chinese culture is the "choice of righteousness and benefit".

    In other words, when morality and interests conflict, the person who chooses morality will be remembered in history. Let's take a look at Zhuge Liang's life, in the past, he was Mr. Wolong, and Liu Bei, a down-and-out imperial prince who sold straw shoes, visited the thatched house and invited him out of the mountain. After coming out of the mountain, Mr. Liu Bei, who was a mercenary everywhere, actually won one-third of the world and became the emperor.

    This shows Zhuge Liang's ability. And when Liu Bei died, he told Zhuge Liang, Liu Adou, this kid, you see that he can become a weapon, and if he doesn't succeed, you will directly become the emperor. Zhuge Liang immediately expressed his loyalty to Liu Chan, and then he was loyal, he died, and his son Zhuge Zhan committed suicide in defeat.

    It can be said that he did his best and died.

    Let's take a look at Sima Yi, he was not taken seriously in the early days of Cao Agui's post-queen group. Later, after Cao Cao's strategists repeatedly reduced the number of members, Cao Apu reluctantly used it, and was very suspicious of Sima Yi's character, thinking that he was not loyal enough and was suspected of usurping the throne. Sima Yi is old and serious, the city is very deep, and in order to save his life, even pretending to be crazy and stupid seems so real, and he has deceived wave after wave of spy eyes.

    It is estimated that Sima Yi thought in his heart, Cao Cao, Cao Cao, Lao Tzu followed you to the north and south, and there is no merit and hard work. I am not a usurper, so why do you force me to die? Rather than my whole family dying on trumped-up charges in the future, I should find an opportunity to take his place!

    When Cao Cao didn't die, Sima Yi didn't make any moves. When Cao Pi was not dead, Sima Yi did not make any moves. The level of the later emperors was too poor, and Sima Yi got the opportunity to establish his own Jin Dynasty.

    The ancients said: Those who steal the country are marquis, and those who steal hooks are punished. We won't talk about the deep words.

    Zhuge Liang is at stake. Sima Yi said it himself, I might as well too! You can take a look at the Romance of the Three Kingdoms! After several battles, he lost, and then defended the city, not daring to come out to fight.

    Many people feel that Luo Guanzhong is more biased towards Liu Bei's group in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", so there is an over-exaggeration of people such as Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Zhuge Liang, etc., prompting them to become too good. In fact, in my opinion, Luo Guanzhong still has many places that combine history, so his description of Sima Yi is also more exciting.

    In Luo Guanzhong's pen, Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang actually have a lot of wits and courage, such as the most classic empty city plan, which is the best embodiment of the two people's battle of wits and courage, many people feel that in the empty city plan, Sima Yi was fooled by Zhuge Liang, and Zhuge Liang defeated Sima Yi in strategy.

    In fact, this is just a superficial view, if we study it deeply, in fact, it is not difficult to find that there is a deeper meaning in the empty city plan, did Sima Yi really not realize that Zhuge Liang was fooling himself at that time? In my opinion, Sima Yi is not so ignorant.

    Sima Yi obviously saw Zhuge Liang's plan, but he wanted to plan and lead the troops away, why would Sima Yi do this? The main reason is that Sima Yi had just gained the trust of Cao Wei Group at that time, but the foundation was still unstable, only Zhuge Liang still existed, Sima Yi's value would be more obvious, if Zhuge Liang was destroyed, Sima Yi's existence would be unnecessary.

    In other words, at this time, Sima Yi was ostensibly fooled by Zhuge Liang, but in fact, he was looking for a way out for his future and acting in partnership with Zhuge Liang, so purely from the perspective of the empty city plan, we can't compare who is more powerful between the two, but this does not mean that we can't compare who is more powerful between the two.

    If Luo Guanzhong really distinguishes the victory or defeat of Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang, it should be after Zhuge Liang put the seven-star lantern and died under the influence of Wei Yan, when Zhuge Liang understood that his life had come to an end, he arranged for Jiang Wei and others to put themselves in their seats and carry Zhuge Liang away, so that Sima Yi could not see that Zhuge Liang had died.

    Sima Yi wanted to lead the army to attack Zhuge Liang at that time, but he saw Zhuge Liang sitting in his seat from a distance, and he seemed to be very calm, so Sima Yi thought that Zhuge Liang was still alive, so he was fooled into letting go of the Shu Han army and allowing them to go home.

    Judging from this simple matter, in fact, Sima Yi is still far behind Zhuge Liang in all aspects of ability, so he will continue to fall into Zhuge Liang's schemes, it can be said that if we combine the many details of the entire "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Zhuge Liang is indeed slightly better than Sima Yi in terms of ability.

    Both have their advantages.

    Zhuge Liang is good at politics, and in terms of military talent, he is also the chief of the army and the use of soldiers for his short, and he is more wise. Sima Yi's military talent is better than Zhuge Liang, he can write and martial arts, and he praises Zhuge Liang as a genius in the world in terms of military governance, but he himself is not inferior to Zhuge Liang. For the prediction and grasp of the situation in the world, Zhuge Liang is obviously better; However, the use of soldiers as generals can pay attention to "Zhengqi", and this talent Zhuge Liang is not as good as Sima Yi.

    Sima Yi not only 'consumed' Zhuge Liang, but his own strength (strategy, courage) was also a few points stronger than Zhuge Liang.

    Sima Yi....But Zhuge Liang is more prominent....But Sima's defensive skills are unbeatable.

    It's all amazing. However, the positions are different, and they cannot be compared. It's like when I was a child, I often asked if Shu was good or Wei was good. The answer is different depending on the position.

    When Zhuge Liang went out of Qishan to attack Wei, due to the suddenness of the incident, the situation was very favorable to Shu, and Wei was invincible, so he was forced to re-use Sima Yi - from then on, Sima Yi and Zhuge Liang officially confronted each other, but in general, each confrontation was exchanged: step by step, if each sent troops to fight, Zhuge Liang was advantageous; If he can't hold on and turn the positional battle into a strong wall, Sima Yi will have an advantage - this is not only related to the personal talents of the two (official historical documents such as the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms" generally believe that Zhuge Liang is a management wizard, and his management ability and level are higher than Sima Yi's - Sima Yi himself once said:

    Zhuge Liang is a genius in the world, especially better than generals, I might as well do it! "In military operations, it is not enough to rely on an excellent management system alone, but also to have a strategy for action, which is what Zhuge Liang does not have and Sima Yi is good at. It is also closely related to geographical and other factors, Shu Han has become a steel safe after losing control of the six counties of Jingzhou:

    Others want to enter, it's hard; If you want to go out by yourself, it is even more difficult - Sima Yi just saw that the Shuhan Mountains are mainly located and it is difficult to transfer personnel and grain and grass, so he has been focusing on defending the exit of the "Chencang-Jieting", but Zhuge Liang has been in vain every time!

    Therefore, the two should determine the merits and inferiority, just like a sturdy ordinary person and a drunken boxing champion in the same situation: it is difficult to unify the right time and place and people to be the same - it is difficult to say who is both wise and brave.

    The earliest battle in history in which Zhuge Liang participated was the Battle of Chibi - but only as Liu Bei's envoy to say that he was in the "Sun-Liu Alliance", and did not transfer troops to the actual battle; Then there were six counties such as Changsha and Wuling in Jingzhou, which was the beginning of Zhuge Liang's real participation in the actual battle and the deployment of troops - but it was only "strategizing" and did not visit the former enemy in person; As for Liu Bei's annexation of Hanzhong, it was also Fa Zheng and Pang Tong who advocated and participated, until Pang Tong died in ambush (Pang Tong was a practical talent, but unfortunately he was a little hasty, so that he died young, otherwise Pang was stationed outside, Zhuge was in the master, and the Liu family would definitely be different in the world - it's a pity) Zhuge Liang joined (Zhuge Liang had been in charge of the rear of Jingzhou before, so it can be seen that Zhuge Liang himself also understood: fighting in battle is not his specialty. But at this time, he was already responsible for the penalty kick at the goal, and there was not much hardship at all; Later, the recovery of the Southern Barbarian Meng, although Zhuge Liang personally led the troops, but the basic strategy was Ma Tan's "siege for the bottom, attack the heart for the top", the march route was the "Pingnan Finger Map" provided by Lu Kai, and the actual battle was Liao Hua and Ma Dai - Zhuge Liang was in the middle of the dispatch and coordinated the distribution of manpower; After that, six out of Qishan, because at this time Zhao Yun and other fierce generals died one after another, Ma Tan was beheaded because of a mistake, Wei Yan was overjoyed, and Liao Hua and others were not experienced and strong enough to ......Zhuge Liang was unexpectedly unavailable, and in the end he died ...... in vain

    To sum up, Zhuge Liang's actual most advantageous talent is "good leadership, good knowledge, rigorous handling, and good management" - he is a top politician and management scientist - the real military is not very capable, and he cannot be regarded as an outstanding military strategist.
