Journal mercedo's Journal: Truth Of The Battle Of Jieting

In 228 the battle between Shu led by Zhuge Kongming and Wei led by Cao Cao, Zhuge sent a general Ma Su here and ordered to position at the bottom of the hill. But he positioned Shu army on the hill since it was written in a book of military tactics. There's an exception for everything, in this area because water was obtained fully at the bottom of the valley he had to place his troops under the valley. Shu army was surrounded and defeated by Wei army. Later Ma Su was captured by Zhuge Kongming and said to be executed. Ma Su had been very well evaluated by Zhuge Kongming, but he executed Ma Su without mercy. He should have given him a second chance, but he took his life for his one time failure. Zhuge Kongming had been admired one of the most intelligent figures in the Thee Kingdoms Era, many his enemies feard his wisdom. After the death of Zhuge Kongming in the Battle of Wuzhang Plains, 234, Shu had no wiser strategist than Zhuge Kongming. If a wise strategist like Ma Su were alive, Shu would not have to keep Zhuge Kongming's death secret.
