Zhang Bao is the son of Zhang Fei, and Guan Xing is the son of Guan Yu, both of whom inherited their father's powerful genes, known as "Xiao Guan Zhang".
Zhuge Liang from the beginning of the separation with Guan Zhang and the two, to the later Guan Zhang and the two slowly accepted Zhuge Liang, the three of them in the process of struggle has established a life and death relationship. After the death of Xiao Guanzhang's father, they were not only the second chair of the Shu Han generals, but also the living force of Zhuge Liang to stabilize the court.
Zhang Bao died unexpectedly, and Zhuge Liang was deeply devastated
The general died in a hundred battles, the brave soldier returned for ten years, and the foreign conquest was all knife licking blood, and if he did not die suddenly one day, the general would not have one more life than the small soldier, and Zhang Bao died unexpectedly in the process of Zhuge Liang's second Northern Expedition.
After Zhuge Liang attacked the counties of Yinping and Wudu, he sent Guan Xing, Jiang Wei, Zhang Bao, and other generals to attack the Wei forces of Guo Huai and Sun Li. The Shu Han soldiers were on the defensive, and the Wei army that had been beaten threw away their armor, and Zhang Bao, seeing that Wei Jin had signs of escape, chased after them. But unexpectedly, on the way to chase the defeated soldiers, lianren fell into the cliff with his horse, and by the time the soldiers found him, Zhang Bao was already unconscious.
When the news of Zhang Bao's death in the army reached Zhuge Liang's ears, he was commanding the battle, but when he heard about it, he cried loudly, and then vomited blood and fainted to the end. When the people woke him up, Zhuge Liang, with no intention of fighting again, ordered the three armies to withdraw to Hanzhong.
Why did Zhuge have such a drastic performance on Zhang Bao's death?
After so many years of contact between Zhuge Liang and Liu Guanzhang, although they were colleagues of the monarch and the subject, they were actually brothers in life and death.
Yu Privately, with Zhuge Liang's feelings for Zhang Fei, Zhang Bao was his son and nephew, and he naturally cherished this son and nephew who was not flesh and bone; Yu Gong, Zhang Bao was the strength of the new generation in the Shu Han Dynasty, and with the support of Jiang Wei, Guan Xing, Zhang Bao, and others behind Zhuge Liang's back, his northern expedition could be smooth, after all, the court at that time had a lot of complaints about Zhuge Liang.
Before Liu Bei's death, he entrusted himself to the White Emperor's city, in fact, he entrusted the Shu Han's Jiangshan and the living forces of the dynasty to Zhuge Liang, and he hoped that with the assistance of these new generations, Zhuge Liang could represent them to complete Liu Bei's unfinished business. But no one expected that not long after the northern expedition had just begun, Zhang Fei's eldest son had died unexpectedly.
Zhuge Liang's pain and vomiting blood were due to the guilt in his heart, he felt guilty that Zhang Fei did not take good care of Zhang Bao, and he felt guilty that Liu Bei had entrusted shu Han Jiangshan to him, and he had lost a heavy general at the beginning of the Northern Expedition. If Zhang Bao had not died, with the relationship between him and Liu Chan's brother-in-law, as a heavy minister of Shu Han, such an identity could suppress Huang Hao to death and cooperate with Zhuge Liang to deter the group of subjects.
Because after Zhuge Liang's death, the situation in the Shu Han Dynasty Hall began to tilt, Jiang Wei gradually became weak and had to retreat to the Sword Pavilion, if Zhang Bao was alive, its deterrent power was not a star and a half stronger than Jiang Wei.
Zhuge Liang's pain was also considering the situation in the court after his death, so he really attacked his heart with a fierce fire, vomiting blood and fainting. We can also see the importance of Zhang Bao in the Shu Han Dynasty, and Zhuge Liang also took this into account.
