Jiang Wei, the--successor of Liang

Though Jiang Wei was scold for not attacking the Shu soldiers, Zhuge Liang sees him as a person capable of carrying on the Plans of Shu in case he couldn't. Upon his leave of Wei, Jiang Wei met with Zhuge Liang in a moment of desperestion to be the one who carries his legacy forward.

Jiang Wei Vs. Yue Ling

Although Jiang is a very good warrior on the field, I still believe that Zhuge Liang's Wife should've been the one for taking up his legacy and not being in the Battle of Zhang Plains. Due to Yue Ling's experience at land and geometry, she should've been a better choice to carry the plans for the Shu kingdom instead of Jiang Wei. If not for her death, Yue Ling could've seen and performed more for Shu rather than Jiang Wei be the lead on Liang's Southern or Northern Plans.

history of jiang wei life

Jiang Wei 姜維 (204-263) was a general during the Three Kingdoms period of Chinese history. Originally a general of the Kingdom of Wei, he joined the Kingdom of Shu after his mother was invited by Zhuge Liang (the prime minister of Shu), and he himself had fallen into a trap laid by Zhuge Liang. He was taken by Zhuge as his protégé and earned a reputation as a great warrior as well as a gifted strategist. After the death of Zhuge Liang, he succeeded him as the commander of the Shu armies and started a series of attacks against Wei.

From 247 until the demise of Shu, Jiang Wei made nine invasions to the north. Under the circumstances described by the famous saying "Within Shu there are no great generals, such that even Liao Hua (a mediocre general) is at the front lines," Jiang Wei fought against the numerous famous generals of Wei, winning some battles and losing others. Once, he had Sima Zhao, the Wei Commander-in-Chief, surrounded around Tie-long Mountain, almost costing Sima Zhao his life. However, he was ultimately unsucessful in his attempts to conquer or establish a foothold in the Kingdom of Wei, and as a result of all of these efforts, Jiang Wei depleted the strength of Shu.

In 263, Wei conquered Shu. Jiang proposed to restore the kingdom by persuading the Wei general Zhong Hui to rebel, but his plot was discovered and Jiang himself was killed along with the general by the Wei Army next year.

Untrustworthy

Why is it right when Zhuge Liang dies he kills Wei Wan, I mean he could not have known Wei Yan's side and can not distrust him just because the prime minister said. And I thought his supposed weapon Trident was invented in England in the 5th century. Whopper 18:41, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wei Yan Vs. Zhuge Liang

Although Wei Yan was the sixth most important man to the 5 tiger of Shu, he, I would say, to Zhuge Liang, posed a threat to the kingdom later on (Of course I'm only guessing.)

None the less, Zhuge Liang did know that Wei Yan was ready to do something outside of the line that Shu would not just easily turn a blind eye to.--Zhang Liao 02:21, 23 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thats true

That is true, anything can be true or false in these conditions. Whopper 19:52, 22 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

not English

There's no such English word as paramountcy, you mean supremacy. Have somebody who knows English better and also the language translated from, and fix the wording and grammar. 100.15.120.162 (talk) 21:56, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Changed paramountcy to authority to align with the text, as he was the "supreme authority" of the Shu military. Hy Brasil (talk) 00:21, 28 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
