Nishikawa fortune telling

Anyone who has read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms knows that Zhou Yu died of the anger of Ge Liang. Before he died, he looked up at the sky and sighed, "I gave birth to Yu, but I gave birth to Liang." In fact, there is no intersection between Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang in history, and it is not easy to compare who is more capable.

Zhou Yu's most outstanding talent is military talent. He helped Sun Ce to start a business in Jiangdong, defeated the separatist forces in Jiangdong such as Lu You and Yan Baihu, and surrendered the famous Taishi Ci. Unfortunately, when Sun Ce was assassinated, Zhou Yu wholeheartedly assisted Sun Quan, destroying Huang Zu in Jiangxia and revenging Sun Quan's father.

Zhou Yu's most commendable achievement is, of course, Battle of Red Cliffs. Facing the strong enemy's command, he laughed and shattered Cao Cao's dream of pacifying Jiangdong. Zhuge Liang returned to Liu Bei after completing the task of uniting Wu against Cao, and did not participate in the war at all. The warship was picked up by Cao Cao himself, but Huang Gai didn't fight. The east wind was blown by himself, not borrowed by Zhuge Liang.

After Battle of Red Cliffs, Zhou Yu fought hard with Coss in Jiangling for a year, and was stabbed in the back, and finally won Jiangling. In AD 2 10, Zhou Yu proposed a plan to capture Xichuan and split the world in two. On my way to Jiangling to pack my bags, I unfortunately died in Baqiu.

Influenced by the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, people think that Zhuge Liang is a military genius. In fact, Chen Shou said in the "Three Kingdoms" that Zhuge Liang "managed the people for a long time and was short-sighted, and managed the people better than the generals." It means that Zhuge Liang's political talent is higher than his military talent. Zhuge Liang's real achievement is to stabilize the rear of Shu, let the people live and work in peace and contentment, and provide logistical support for the army, which is equivalent to Xiao He under Liu Bang.

Zhuge Liang's fledgling first contribution was not to burn Bowangpo, but to promote the alliance between Sun and Liu. After Battle of Red Cliffs, he captured four counties of surprisingly until he captured Hanzhong. Zhuge Liang did not take part in the war, but provided food, ammunition and soldiers as logistics minister.

One of Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang is good at governing the country and the other is good at military affairs. It is difficult and unnecessary to compare the two people who are evenly matched.
