After the fall of the Shu Han Dynasty, Deng Ai chatted with Liu Chan and said, "You can keep the first rank only because you met me, because I am not only powerful, but also a good person." If you had run into a horizontal one, you would have been cut off long ago! Liu Chan quickly nodded and said yes. Deng Ai said again: "Jiang Wei is also a Haojie, but his life is not good, and when he meets me, he can only tie his hands and capture him." Alas, what a pity..."
In August 263, Sima Zhao sent 180,000 troops to attack the Shu state in three ways. Among them, Deng Ai led more than 30,000 people to march into Di Dao to contain Jiang Wei; Zhuge Xu led more than 30,000 people to march into Wudu to block Jiang Wei's retreat; and Zhong Hui led more than 100,000 main forces to take Chengdu directly from Hanzhong.
After the war began, the Shu army shrank in an all-round way, abandoning important passes such as Xiegu Valley, Luo Valley, and Meridian Valley. Zhong Hui then entered Hanzhong generously, passed the pass and drove south. Jiang Wei smelled the change and immediately got rid of the entanglement between Deng Ai and Zhuge Xu, and Yin Ping crossed the bridge, joined forces with Liao Hua and others, and blocked Zhong Hui at the Sword Pavilion.
This place of Sword Pavilion is known as "one husband and one man, ten thousand people can not open". Although the Clock Society had already annexed Zhuge Xu's army, it could not be defeated dead or alive, and it was very depressed. Coupled with the poor supply of food and grass for the Wei army, Zhong Hui was discouraged and prepared to withdraw.
When Deng Ai saw that Jiang Wei and Zhong Hui were both pinned down in the Sword Pavilion, wasn't this a great opportunity for him to make a name for himself! So he marched south from Yinping, bypassed the Sword Pavilion, chiseled the mountain all the way, crossed the mountains and mountains, and went through all kinds of hardships, and finally arrived at Jiangyou and forced Mianzhu! Zhuge Liang's son Zhuge Zhan heard the news and immediately returned to the army to support.
After the battle, Deng Ai sent Deng Zhong and Shi Lu to attack Zhuge Zhan's left and right flanks. The second general was defeated and retreated. Deng Ai was furious and threatened to behead them both. The second general was afraid and quickly returned to the army to fight again, and Deng Ai personally took command and finally defeated the Shu army. Zhuge Zhan was killed and martyred.
After the Mianzhu was broken, the Shu army collapsed for thousands of miles, and Deng Ai marched forward in a high song, conquering Luo County and approaching Chengdu in one go. Liu Chan was very frightened, and in order to save his life, he immediately sent Yuxi to Deng Ai's camp and asked for surrender. Deng Ai agreed, so he led his army into Chengdu, and shu Han perished. After Jiang Wei received the news, he surrendered zhong hui on the spot.
In the face of the huge victory, Deng Ai was carried away. Without Sima Zhao's consent, he appointed a large number of officials without authorization. He also arranged for his cronies to hold such important posts as the assassin of Yizhou and the counties and counties of Shudi. In addition, he also buried the fallen warriors of Wei and Shu together, built a high platform as a beijing temple, and commended his outstanding martial arts!
Two months later, the imperial court issued an edict affirming Deng Ai's exploits. Sima Zhao not only compared Deng Ai to Bai Qi, Han Xin, and Zhou Yafu, but also promoted him to Tai wei (太尉) and enfeoffed 20,000 households! Zhong Hui was also promoted to the throne of Situ and increased the number of households. But he was rewarded, obviously much less than Deng Ai, and he was very jealous.
Therefore, Zhong conspired with the overseer Wei Ou to tamper with Deng Ai's letters sent to Sima Zhao, changing Deng Ai's tone to be extremely arrogant, which aroused Sima Zhao's disgust. Seeing that the heat was almost brewing, the two of them wrote a letter again, framing Deng Aiju for his self-confidence, making a wish for the officials without authorization, and sending his cronies to control the important lands of Yizhou, suspected of great rebellion and conspiracy rebellion!
For such a thing as rebellion, Sima Zhao had always preferred to believe in what he had, and would never believe in nothing! He immediately ordered Wei Ou to arrest Deng Ai's father and son, and to arrest them first. Deng Ai looked up at the sky and sighed: "Two days ago, I just said that I was like a white up, but now I have really become white, alas!" ”
On the fifteenth day of the first month, Zhong Hui also arrived in Chengdu. At this time, the armies of Wei and Shu were in his hands, and the number was as high as more than 200,000. After Deng Ai was arrested, no one could cure him, and Old Zhong moved his mind and wanted to be Liu Bei! In this regard, the conspiracy master Sima Zhao had already taken precautions, and he first sent Jia Chong to lead 10,000 steps to enter Lecheng, and then personally led 100,000 troops into Chang'an, ready to enter Shu at any time.
Soon, Zhong took all the Wei generals and, together with Jiang Wei, forged a "Testament of the Empress Dowager", claiming to depose Sima Zhao. And Jiang Wei is also playing his own small calculation, he wants to encourage Zhong Hui to do his best to curse the Wei generals, and then assassinate Zhong Hui, annex the Wei army, and restore Shu Han!
But Zhong Hui hesitated, and finally missed the wind. At noon on the eighteenth day, Hu Yuan, the son of Hu Lie, took the lead and rushed into the Shu Palace with the officers and men of the battalions. The detained generals also broke through the door and joined the people. During the melee, Jiang Wei, Zhong Hui, and their men were all wiped out, and Liu Xuan, the prince of Shu Han, was also killed.
After that, the Wei army plundered in Chengdu, and the supervising army Wei Ou restrained the generals, and finally stabilized the chaos. However, Deng Ai was not saved by the "Bell Society Rebellion".
Because Wei Wan was afraid that the imperial court would pursue him for slander, he sent Tian Xu to hunt down Deng Ai's father and son to Mianzhu. Soon, Deng Ai's son who remained in Luoyang was also killed, and his wife and grandson were sent to the Western Regions. A generation of famous players, the end is so unbearable!
