He helped build the state, directed its government after Liu Bei\u2019s death and led campaigns against Wei.<sup>[1][2]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Service:<\/strong> He joined Liu Bei late in the Han dynasty and advised him on building a territorial base.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Government:<\/strong> He managed Shu Han\u2019s affairs under Liu Bei\u2019s son and successor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Campaigns:<\/strong> He led expeditions into Wei territory and died during the campaign of 234.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Legend:<\/strong> Later fiction gave his strategic reputation dramatic form in scenes such as the Empty City story.<sup>[1][2][4][5]<\/sup> <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p1\">His biography, later annotations and the novel provide different kinds of evidence about him.<\/p><\/section>\n<figure class=\"tcjdi-infographic\" style=\"width:500px;max-width:100%;margin:24px auto;text-align:center\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Zhuge-Liang-infographic-on-Shu-Han-campaigns-and-literary-memory.webp\" alt=\"Zhuge Liang infographic on Shu Han campaigns and literary memory\" title=\"Zhuge Liang infographic on Shu Han campaigns and literary memory\" width=\"1440\" height=\"2560\" style=\"width:500px;max-width:100%;height:auto;margin:0 auto\" \/><figcaption>Five stations trace Zhuge Liang\u2019s service, campaigns and later reputation in literature and objects.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"p1\">Zhuge Liang is remembered as the strategist who could make a stronger army retreat by opening a gate. His career also included work that rarely makes a dramatic scene, from selecting officials to finding ways to supply an army. The historical and literary records are easiest to read when each is used to answer a different question.<sup>[2][4][5]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h2>Liu Bei and the Longzhong Plan<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Zhuge Liang was born in 181 CE. He entered <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/liu-bei\/\">Liu Bei\u2019s<\/a> service during the breakdown of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/han-dynasty\/\">Han dynasty<\/a>. His biography preserves a strategy associated with Longzhong (\u9686\u4e2d, L\u00f3ngzh\u014dng), where the two men discussed how Liu Bei could build a position among stronger rivals. It proposed a base in Jing, around parts of the middle Yangzi region, and Yi, centered on the southwest. Cooperation with Sun Quan in the southeast would help Liu Bei hold his ground against <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/cao-cao\/\">Cao Cao<\/a>.<sup>[1][2]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The plan matters because it describes the circumstances in which Liu Bei could survive and expand. Zhuge Liang later helped negotiate an alliance with the southeastern leader Sun Quan. The resulting balance of power changed as territories changed hands, so the plan is best read as an early strategy for a fluid situation. The conflict eventually produced the rival states covered in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/three-kingdoms-history\/\">history of the Three Kingdoms<\/a>.<sup>[1][2]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h2>Governing Shu Han<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Liu Bei proclaimed himself emperor in 221 and made Zhuge Liang chancellor. When Liu Bei died in 223, his son Liu Shan (\u5218\u7985, Li\u00fa Sh\u00e0n) succeeded him. Zhuge Liang continued as chancellor and directed major affairs of state. His responsibilities included appointments, relations with allies and military preparations. A southern campaign in 225 helped consolidate his authority behind the lines before he turned his attention north.<sup>[1][2]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Memorial on Sending Out the Troops (\u51fa\u5e08\u8868, Ch\u016bsh\u012b Bi\u01ceo) survives in his biography. It is addressed to Liu Shan and is usually dated to 227. Before going to the front, Zhuge Liang recommended officials and argued that standards of reward and punishment should apply to the palace and the wider administration. It is an example of advice on governing from a minister about to lead an army.<sup>[2][3]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h2>The Northern Campaigns<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">From 228, Zhuge Liang repeatedly led armies against Wei. Shu Han was based in the southwest, and its forces had to move supplies through difficult terrain. In 228, a defeat at Jieting disrupted the first campaign. A later expedition ended when provisions ran low. These setbacks show the separate problems of securing an army\u2019s position and keeping it supplied.<sup>[1][2]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In 234 the Shu Han army faced the Wei commander Sima Yi (\u53f8\u9a6c\u61ff, S\u012bm\u01ce Y\u00ec) at the Wuzhang Plains (\u4e94\u4e08\u539f, W\u01d4zh\u00e0ng Yu\u00e1n). His soldiers cultivated fields as a way to support a longer deployment. Zhuge Liang died during the campaign, and his army withdrew. His expeditions put pressure on Wei, although they did not secure the strategic breakthrough he sought.<sup>[1][2]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h2>How the Novel Remade Zhuge Liang<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/romance-three-kingdoms\/\">Romance of the Three Kingdoms<\/a> (\u4e09\u56fd\u6f14\u4e49, S\u0101ngu\u00f3 Y\u01ceny\u00ec) turns decisions about loyalty and government into scenes with dialogue, suspense and reversals. In the Empty City Stratagem (\u7a7a\u57ce\u8ba1, K\u014dngch\u00e9ng J\u00ec), Zhuge Liang opens the gates and plays a stringed instrument while the enemy approaches. The calm display persuades Sima Yi that there may be an ambush.<sup>[4][5]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">An earlier version of the open-gates story survives in a later annotation to the historical biography. The annotator, Pei Songzhi, quotes the account and then challenges it, arguing that the commanders\u2019 postings at the time do not fit the story. The history therefore preserves both the anecdote and an early argument against accepting it. The novel makes uncertainty part of the scene. The approaching army can see an open gate but must decide whether it signals weakness or a trap. The historical annotation asks a different question about where the commanders actually were.<sup>[2][5]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h2>How His Reputation Endured<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">The National Palace Museum holds a calligraphic album of the memorial copied by an unidentified hand. The object shows that later readers treated the memorial as a work worth copying. Its text preserves Zhuge Liang\u2019s advice in a form made by a later reader, rather than in a surviving original from the campaign.<sup>[2][3]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Wuhou Shrine (\u6b66\u4faf\u7960, W\u01d4h\u00f3u C\u00ed) complex in Chengdu commemorates both Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei. The site also contains Liu Bei\u2019s tomb. Its arrangement lets visitors see why Zhuge Liang was remembered in relation to a ruler and a state as well as for his individual ability. Among <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinaculturepro.com\/famous-chinese-historical-figures\/\">Chinese historical figures<\/a>, Zhuge Liang offers an unusually clear example of the different forms a reputation can take across biography, fiction, calligraphy and commemoration.<sup>[4][6]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h2>FAQs About Zhuge Liang<\/h2>\n<h3>Did Liu Bei really visit Zhuge Liang three times?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">The historical biography says that Liu Bei went three times before meeting him. Zhuge Liang\u2019s memorial also refers to three visits. Those passages support an early account of the visits, while the novel supplies its own dialogue and scenes.<sup>[2][4]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h3>Did Zhuge Liang use the Empty City Stratagem?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">It is a famous literary episode. An earlier account appears in an annotation to the historical biography, but the annotator disputes it. The historical record leaves the event unconfirmed.<sup>[2][5]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h3>Who did Zhuge Liang serve after Liu Bei died?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">He served Liu Shan, Liu Bei\u2019s son and successor, as chancellor of Shu Han. He continued to lead government affairs and military campaigns.<sup>[1][2]<\/sup> <\/p>\n<h2>Sources<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">[1] Academy of Chinese Studies. <a href=\"https:\/\/chiculture.org.hk\/en\/china-five-thousand-years\/1905\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Zhuge Liang<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">[2] Chen Shou with annotations by Pei Songzhi. <a href=\"https:\/\/zh.wikisource.org\/zh\/%E4%B8%89%E5%9C%8B%E5%BF%97\/%E5%8D%B735\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Records of the Three Kingdoms: Biography of Zhuge Liang<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">[3] National Palace Museum. <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalarchive.npm.gov.tw\/Collection\/Detail\/2610?dep=P\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Album of Calligraphy of Zhuge Liang\u2019s Memorial<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">[4] University of Washington Press. <a href=\"https:\/\/uw.manifoldapp.org\/read\/the-scholar-and-the-state-fiction-as-political-discourse-in-late-imperial-china-a1419098-d7a3-4ac1-b2ae-84a90423e4cf\/section\/b3e11c4a-05ea-47a2-85be-e76ab1dc5d6a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Romance of the Three Kingdoms: The Mencian View of Political Sovereignty<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">[5] Journal of Peace Research. <a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/0022343310396265\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">One Hundred Horsemen and the Empty City<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">[6] Chengdu Wuhou Shrine Museum. <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wuhouci.net.cn\/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">About the Chengdu Wuhou Shrine Museum<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meet Zhuge Liang as Liu Bei\u2019s adviser and Shu Han chancellor.
