| | |  Zhuge Liang: Encyclopedia II - Zhuge Liang - Rise to prominenceThe warlord Liu Bei harbored in the neighboring city Xiangyang under his distant relative and the governor of the Jing Region, Liu Biao. Legends recounted that Zhuge Liang joined Liu Bei in 207 only after Liu visited him in person three times. In reality, one of Zhuge Liang's works accounted for three visits. Zhuge Liang soon presented his famous Longzhong Plan before Liu, and he travelled in person to the Kingdom of Wu and formed an alliance with its ruler Sun Quan. His elder brother Zhuge Jin ...

| | | | Zhuge Liang: Encyclopedia II - Chinese style name - Zi Zi, sometimes called Biao Zi or courtesy name, is a name traditionally given to Chinese males at the age of 20, marking their coming of age, or sometimes to females when they are married. This practice is not very common in modern Chinese society. According to the Book of Rites (礼记), after a man becomes an adult, it is disrespectful for others of the same generation to address him by his given name. Therefore, the given name is reserved for oneself and one's elders, while zi would be used by adults of the same generation to refer to one another in formal occasions or ...

| | | | Zhuge Liang: Encyclopedia II - Land mine - Landmine varieties
Land mine - Anti-tank mines AT.
Anti-tank mines are designed to immobilise or destroy vehicles and their occupants. Anti-tank mines can achieve either a mobility kill (m-kill) or a catastrophic kill (k-kill). A mobility kill destroys one or more of the vehicle's vital drive components (for example, breaking a track on a tank) thus immobilising the target. A mobility kill does not always destroy the weapon system or injure the crew. In a catastrophic kill, ...

| | | | Zhuge Liang: Encyclopedia II - Liu Shan - Reign
Liu Shan - Zhuge Liang's regency.
During the early years of his reign, Liu Shan was not an unwise ruler. While Zhuge Liang was alive, Liu Shan treated him as a father, allowing the chancellor to handle all state affairs. Zhuge Liang recommended many trusted officials, including Guo Youzhi (郭攸之), Fei Yi (費禕), Dong Yun (董允) and Xiang Chong (向寵) into key positions. Also under Zhuge's advice, Liu Shan entered into an alliance with Eastern Wu, helping both states to survive against the much larger Ca ...

| | | | Zhuge Liang: Encyclopedia II - Sima Yi - As a Strategist
Sima Yi - Early Career.
In the year 219, the general Guan Yu of the Kingdom of Shu had progressed very far in his campaign in Jingzhou (荆州), defeating several armies and encircling Fan Castle (樊城), threatening to take it. There was much panic among Cao Cao and his advisors, with serious discussion of changing the capital to a further away location to be safer in the event of Fan Castle's fall. Sima Yi strongly opposed this idea, and instead proposed an alliance with the Kingdom of Wu in order to surround and defeat Guan Yu. His proposal was used, and was a great success. Guan Yu ...

| | | | Zhuge Liang: Encyclopedia II - Three Kingdoms - Three emperors In the first month of 220, Cao Cao died and in the tenth month his son Cao Pi deposed the Emperor Xian and ended the Han Dynasty. He named his state Wei and made himself emperor at Luoyang. In 221, Liu Bei named himself Emperor of Han, in a bid to restore the fallen Han dynasty. (His state is known to history as "Shu" or "Shu-Han".) In the same year, Wei bestowed on Sun Quan the title of King of Wu. A year later, Shu-Han troops declared war on Wu and met the Wu armies at the Battle of Yiling. At Xiaoting, Liu Bei was disastrously defeated by ...

| | | | Zhuge Liang: Encyclopedia II - Cao Rui - As emperor Cao Rui's reign was a paradoxical one in many ways. He was clearly intelligent and capable, and yet never fulfilled his potential in his governance of the country or in his military campaigns. He showed great compassion at times, and yet was capable of great cruelty. He carried out many acts that were beneficial for the empire and yet at least as many that were hurtful. Despite his uncle Cao Zhi's successive petitions, however, he continued the severe prohibitions against princes' holding of offices that his father Cao Pi had put in place, a ...
