Zhuge Liang's late Eastern Han Dynasty was a chaotic era. At that time, the information transmission was not smooth, and there was no developed media to broadcast news. If you want to know the outside world and the situation, you have to rely on word of mouth. Zhuge Liang lives in Longzhong and can understand the situation in the world. Naturally, he has his own way. To sum up, Zhuge Liang has three channels to understand the situation in the world: First, Zhuge Liang lives in Longzhong, but he has many friends. For example, Xu Shu, who introduced Liu Bei to visit the thatched cottage, was Zhuge Liang's good friend. Besides Xu Shu, Zhuge Liang has three good friends, namely Shi Tao, Cui and Meng Jian. Together with Xu Shu, they are called "Four Friends of Zhuge Liang". Xu Shu and Shi Tao, from Yingchuan, were exiled to Jingzhou because of the war in the Central Plains, and met Zhuge Liang. Cui was a native of Hebei, the son of Cui Lie, the commander-in-chief at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, or met Zhuge Liang when he was demoted to Jingzhou, or Zhuge traveled around the world.
Zhuge Liang in Xu Shu once chatted with these friends and talked about the land. As the saying goes, like-minded people can be friends of Zhuge Liang. Everyone's ambition must be the same, especially Cui and Xu Shu. They all think that Zhuge Liang's talent is equal to Guan Zhonghe's. Biography of the Three Kingdoms Zhuge Liang: Liang Geng cultivated Long Mu, which is a good Song of Fu Liang. He is eight feet long, and every time he compares himself with Guan Zhong and Le Yi, he is incomparable. Cui and Yingchuan of Boling are straightforward and bright, friendly and honest. While chatting with friends, Zhuge Liang will talk about the world situation at that time. As a young man and thinking that he can make a career in the future, Zhuge Liang will naturally pay special attention to the situation in the world. When people in different places chat, they will talk about the situation in different places, which also gives Zhuge Liang some understanding of different places, which is also a channel for Zhuge Liang to obtain information.
On the surface, Zhuge Liang lived in seclusion, farming and studying in Longzhong. In fact, Zhuge Liang did not make a living by farming. Zhuge Liang was born in a declining official family and had a certain economic source, so he also had the conditions to travel around the world. Zhuge Liang once traveled with Shi Tao, Xu Shu and Meng Jian and often talked all night. When four people were talking, there was a short story: Zhuge Liang said Shi Tao, Xu Shu and Meng Jian. Zhuge Liang just smiled and didn't speak. In fact, he understood that Zhuge Liang compared himself to Guan Zhong and Le Yi, Guan Zhong and Le Yi, but they were the same. Zhuge Liang laughed because he didn't want to say that he could do it.
Later, when Meng Jian wanted to go home because he was homesick, Zhuge Liang also said: There are many literati in China. If you want to travel around the world, why rush home? It can be seen that Zhuge Liang often travels around the world. As for where he went, there is no record in the history books, so it is not clear. So traveling around the world, looking around and understanding the local situation is also a channel for Zhuge Liang to understand the situation in the world. Third, weaving Jingzhou network Zhuge Liang's network in Jingzhou is quite amazing. Besides, Zhuge Liang himself. Zhuge Liang married Huang's daughter, who was the son-in-law of Cai Yan, the leader of Jingzhou cremation, and married Cai Yan's eldest daughter. Cai Yan's youngest daughter married Jingzhou Biao, and Cai Yan's son's name was Cai Mao. Cai Jia, the most powerful gentry in Jingzhou, helped Liu Biao unify Jingzhou. In this way, Zhuge Liang and Jingzhou cremation Cai Jia broke up.
Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei and Pang Tong Zhuge Liang's sister married ZhuanZhuan, the second largest family in Jingzhou. Kuai Kuai is the brother of Kuai Tong and Kuai Yue, and also the gentry whose power is second only to Cai in Jingzhou, which also helped Liu Biao unify Jingzhou. Kuai later became the prefect of the house order and was killed by Meng Da. Zhuge Liang's second sister married Pang Shanmin, the son of Pang Degong. Pang Degong is a celebrity who lives in seclusion in Jingzhou, and also a famous family in Jingzhou. Zhuge Liang's title of Wolong was given by Pang Degong. Through Pang Degong, Zhuge Liang also met Mr. Si Mahui, a water mirror. These are all famous people in Jingzhou. In addition, Pang Shanmin's cousin is Pang Tong, and Pang Tong is related to Zhuge Liang.
How about Mr. Water Mirror? Zhuge Liang's network in Jingzhou is very strong. Zhuge Liang hardly knew anyone from Liu Biao, the secretariat of Jingzhou, Cai and Kuai, the great gentry, to Pang Jia, the famous man in Jingzhou. Through this network, Zhuge Liang can get to know some prominent people in Jingzhou, and then through chatting and drinking tea with these people, Zhuge Liang can learn a lot about the world at that time. It is even possible to know some undisclosed situations inside Jingzhou. Zhuge Liang learned about the world situation at that time through three channels: friendship, traveling around the world and Jingzhou Net. Combining his own views on the situation at that time, Liu Bei made a strategic analysis of the world situation long before he found Zhuge Liang. Longzhong was tailor-made for Liu Bei, and it was precisely because Zhuge Liang had a large number of communication channels in his early days that he could make such a famous strategy. Only 12 years later, Liu Bei Group analyzed its strategy in Longzhong.
