"When Liang governed Sichuan, the fields were opened, the granaries were full, the equipment was profitable, and the accumulation of fertility was not prosperous. The road was not intoxicating."

Related historical materials have described the Shu Kingdom under Zhuge Liang's rule. Whether it is Chen Shou, who wrote the Three Kingdoms, or later generations, they have given Zhuge Liang a high praise. The most valuable thing is that while Zhuge Liang gave the Wei Kingdom huge pressure and consumption strategically, he still maintained the abundant and stable domestic materials.

Some people believe that Zhuge Liang was willing to dominate the military and military force without hesitation. In fact, every Northern Expedition was moderate and the interval was orderly. Most of the military expenses consumed came from the Shujin trade and the plunder of the wealth of the Southern Barbarians. The pressure to spread to the domestic people was greatly reduced. In addition, the fertile soil of the Sichuan-Shu Plain provided excellent agricultural conditions and sufficient food and grass supply, so it was impossible to say that military and military force were rigorous.

With Zhuge Liang's death, although his successor Jiang Wan and Fei Yi effectively maintained the national strength of Shu, they judged the situation and changed Zhuge Liang's strategic policy to turn off attack to defense. They did not launch a large-scale war against Cao Wei again. During this period, they successfully blocked Cao Shuang's offensive and created good objective conditions for the recovery and development of Shu's economy. Although they did not achieve brilliant military results during their rule, the Shu Han regime could last for more than 40 years with the national policy of rest and recuperation.

Until Fei Yi was assassinated and the military power of Shu Kingdom was completely in the hands of Jiang Wei. Jiang Wei, who inherited Zhuge Liang's strategic policy, began to frequently launch wars against Wei Kingdom despite national strength, which was truly a powerful military force. Due to years of offensive battles, his achievements were not made, and the death of Chen Zhi, an allies who supported Jiang Wei's Northern Expedition, and the attacks of the Yizhou Group led by Qiao Zhou, led by Jiang Wei gradually lost power and did not even dare to go back to Chengdu.

Walking on the official road to Chengdu, Chen An saw many people of Shu who were fond of food and living a hard life. After all, the family wealth accumulated by Shu Kingdom for many years had already been squandered by Jiang Wei. Frequent wars would inevitably increase the burden on the people of Shu Kingdom. No wonder the local Yizhou Group, which was infringed on the interests, strongly opposed Jiang Wei. During Zhuge Liang's reign, he suppressed the local Yizhou Group and could not raise their heads up. Until Chen Zhi, a heavyweight figure, died, no one could suppress the Yizhou Scholar Group.

When Sichuan and Shu were still under the rule of Liu Yan and Liu Zhang, they relied on the local Yizhou Group and the Dongzhou Group. When Liu Bei led the Jingzhou Group to conquer Sichuan and Shu, they broke this political pattern. As an outsider, Shu Han's political policy has always been to use the Jingzhou Group, win over the Dongzhou Group, and suppress the most powerful local Yizhou Group. When Shu Han no longer had anyone to suppress the Yizhou Group, it was reasonable for Liu Chan to open the city and surrender after Deng Ai approached Chengdu.

If Liu Chan decided to defend Chengdu to the death, the Yizhou Group, which controls the military power of Chengdu, might really kill Liu Chan and surrender to Deng Ai. The Shu Kingdom was destroyed and the Liu family was destroyed, but their Yizhou Group was not hurt at all. It was still the local emperor of Sichuan and Shu. Whoever ruled Sichuan in the future will rely on them.

It is often said that A Dou, who cannot be helped, and A Dou, who is happy with Shu, if Liu Chan is really useless, how can he rule Sichuan and Shu for more than 40 years, how can he enjoy his old age? You must know that both Wei and Dongwu continued to have civil strife during the same period. Although Shu Han also had many factions and internal struggles continued, they were generally calm, and there was no fierce power-grabbing coup like Wei and Wu.

The bystanders are clear, while the authorities are confused.

History has always been like this.

There are politics in small offices, and people are upset in it, let alone governing a country?

Through the distortion of light, Chen An seemed to be wearing a layer of invisibility that no one could see, so as not to encounter unnecessary trouble. Ancient society was different from modern society. Ordinary people would go wherever they wanted. In this era, there was no scholar's identity, which was hard to move forward. The old saying that the sound of chickens and dogs was heard, and the people would never interact until they were old and died is no joke.

Perhaps due to the influence of the war, the whole Chengdu seemed a little deserted. The officials and pedestrians on the road were all in a hurry, with tight faces. Nearly half locked doors and windows on the street, they climbed into a rare and lively restaurant. The guests were neatly dressed scholars, either loudly criticizing current affairs and whispering to each other about Cao Wei's massive attack.

Sitting in the hidden corner seat, Chen An took the bamboo slips from where he got them and looked at the classics written in official script on the bamboo slips. The contents above mostly describe the history of the Spring and Autumn Period.

Judging from a brief account, people had already used this strange power in the world as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, but most of them were closely related to war politics. As the bamboo slips disappeared, the bamboo slips appeared in their hands, he soon read the classics collected in the Chengdu Palace treasury. The ancients used the words "Five Cars to learn" to describe a person's knowledge, but the five cars were all books written by bamboo slips, with a maximum of only 100,000 words. In modern society, a hardcover paper book was enough to cover the books written by these bamboo slips.

Although it has been more than two hundred years since Cai Lun invented paper, precious documents and materials are still written and preserved in bamboo slips. It was not until the Eastern Jin Dynasty that the output and quality of paper were comprehensively improved, and bamboo slips gradually withdrew from the stage of history. Therefore, bamboo slips after the Eastern Jin Dynasty were rarely found in archaeological excavations in later generations.

According to the bamboo slips, especially when I accidentally browse the "Book of Taishi Gong", the strange power that appeared in this world even dates back to the period of the Five Emperors, and is a long history. However, there is no detailed record and speculation on how this power was born.

Chen An believed that the friction and collision between parallel universes caused the strangeness of the world in front of him. As long as he could find the source, he would be able to follow the clues of other plain universes. He did not doubt Gaia's will, because the sleeping Gaia's will was not the initiator of the immediate results. Everything has traces to follow. If Gaia's will really modify the environment of the earth, Chen An would have discovered it in the process of exploration, otherwise why would he have read historical books and investigated them without any clue.

"Who are you? Why is it here?"

When Chen An was about to leave, someone suddenly looked at Chen An in surprise and shouted.

"Bo Ren, there is no one here, why is there such a question?"

"Bo Ren, are you looking at it wrong? There is no one here!"

After following the speaker, the companions following Chen An followed the sound, they immediately persuaded him in confusion.

Because except for the speaker, no one saw Chen An.

Chen An left the table indifferently. Shortly after leaving the restaurant, the speaker hurriedly chased after him, and pulled out the ring-headed knife from his waist in his hand and stopped him in front of Chen An and spoke loudly.

"Bold maniac! Don't go!"

"Who are you?"
