Jiang Wei inherited Zhuge Liang's unfinished business and continued his northern expedition to the Central Plains. At this time, after years of war, the national strength and military strength of Xishu gradually declined, and many generals died one after another. Jiang Wei continued his Northern Expedition, and only Wang Ping, Liao Hua, Zhang Yi and Zhang Ben were considered capable of fighting. Later generations commented: "There is no general in Shu, and Liao Hua is the pioneer." Before that, Cao Wei killed Cao Shi's generals because Sima Yi seized the military power, forcing Xia Houba to take refuge in Xishu and become Jiang Wei's assistant in the Northern Expedition.

In the 16th year of Shu and Han Dynasties (AD 253), Jiang Wei took up 200,000 troops, with Liao Hua and Zhang Yi as the left and right pioneers, Xia Houba as the staff officer, and the soldiers went to Yangpingguan to attack Wei. He also joined forces with the King of Qiang and raised 50,000 troops to help. At this time, Sima Shi, who was in charge of Cao Wei's military and political power, sent his brother Si Mazhao as the viceroy and Xu Zhi as the pioneer to lead the troops to Longxi. The two armies fought in Dongting, Liao Hua and Zhang Yi were defeated by Xu, and the Shu soldiers retreated three miles to the village. Jiang Wei and Xia Houba discussed: "Xu Chu is very brave. We should use a plan to defeat him." It was agreed to transport grain and grass behind Tielongshan with wooden cows and flowing horses, which was a long-term plan of Wei Jun and attracted the attention of Si Mazhao. Xu Chu will be sent to intercept and cut off the supply route of the Shu army. When Xu Chu intercepted, the Shu soldiers pretended to be defeated and ambushed to win. Si Mazhao's plan made Xu Chu lead five thousand soldiers to Tielong. When the Shu soldiers came, they abandoned their food and grass and left. Xu divided the troops into half groups, escorted the hay back to the village, and led half the troops to catch up. Less than ten miles away, the road was cut off by the traffic ahead, and there was a gunshot. Liao Hua and Yi Cheung were ambushed and killed, and Wei Bing was defeated. Xu Zhi struggled to death and left alone. Xu Zhi was at a loss when he met Jiang Wei. Stabbed by Jiang Wei, sitting on horseback. Xu Zhi fell from his horse and was hacked to death by all the troops. Wei Bing surrendered completely. Xia Houba ordered Wei Jun to put on armor for the Shu soldiers and came to Wei Village from a small road under the banner of Wei Jun. When Wei Bing saw his troops coming back, he opened the door and let them in. Shu soldiers were killed in the village. Si Mazhao was frightened and got on the horse in a hurry, but Liao Hua led his troops to kill him. When he retreated, he killed him from the path. Si Mazhao had no choice, so he had to go to Tielongshan. Jiang Wei surrounded Tielongshan, and there was no intersection. There are not enough springs on the mountain, and people are thirsty. Si Mazhao sighed: "I died here!"

At this time, at the invitation of Qiang Wang Fan, he led 50,000 soldiers to help. On the way, Guo Huai stopped him, and his fans were captured and surrendered to Wei. With the help of the Qiang king, Guo Huai put Gao Wei among the Qiang soldiers and headed for the Shu military camp in Tielongshan. Jiang Weiwen was overjoyed and rushed out with Xia Houba. Before King Qiang became fascinated, Wei Bing killed people from behind. Jiang Wei was frightened, got on the horse and left, unarmed, with only a bow at his waist. He left in a hurry and dropped all the arrows. Jiang Wei was walking in the mountains, and Guo Huai led the troops to chase after him. Looking at the approaching ginger, I pulled the bowstring and rang it more than ten times. Knowing that Jiang Wei had no arrow, Guo Huai shot with a bow. Jiang Wei flashed by, conveniently took the arrow and buckled it on the bowstring. When Guo Huai chased him, he tried his best to shoot at the facade, but Guo Huai fell. Guo Huai was saved by Wei Jun, and he was shot by an arrow and bled to death. Si Mazhao chased down the mountain and returned halfway. Jiang Wei lost many troops and retreated to Hanzhong. Although defeated, he killed Xu Chu, shot Guo Huai and defeated Wei Jun's forces.

In the second year of Wei (AD 255), Sima Shi just died. At the beginning of Si Mazhao's power, he dared not leave Luoyang. Jiang Wei took the opportunity to attack Wei. Jiang Wei and Xia Houba discussed, and took the counties in southwest Tao Tao first. After reaching an agreement, Jiang Wei led 50,000 people to Bao Han. When the soldiers arrived in Taoshui, the king of Yongzhou Secretariat came to meet them with 70,000 infantry. Jiang Wei took the final resistance plan and ordered Yi Chang and Xia Houba to ambush behind Wei Jun. Jiang Wei led the troops to fight with Wang Jing, and after several battles, he led the troops to Taoshui. Jing Wong drove six soldiers and came together. Near Taoshui, Jiang Wei shouted, "It's urgent, why don't you work hard!" People fought back together, and Wei Bing was defeated. After Zhang Yi and Xia Houba copied Wei Jun, they divided into two ways and surrounded Wei Wei at the core. Jiang Wei courageously entered Wei Jun, killed about, and Wei Bing was defeated. Wang Jing led the defeated troops to fight for the first world war, rushed into Didao City and held on behind closed doors. Jiang Wei won a great victory and led the troops to attack Didao City. Jiang Wei surrounded Didaocheng on all sides and could not attack it for a while. At this point, Si Mazhao sent Wargo to help. Wargo's plan to suspect soldiers alarmed Jiang Wei and led his troops back to Hanzhong.

Jiang Wei led Shu soldiers back to Hanzhong to discuss sending troops. At this point, Wargo has sealed General Anxi, and General Chen Tai has been stationed in Yong and Liang. Wargo expected Jiang Wei to come, so he drilled military forces in Yong and Liang and camped in Qishan. When Jiang Wei led his troops to Qishan, he saw that there were nine villages in Qishan first, like snakes, and they looked after each other from beginning to end. Jiang Wei turned around and said, "The situation in this village is wonderful, and only Prime Minister Zhuge can do it." Seeing that Wei Jun was ready, Jiang Wei retreated to the next village, leaving a small number of Shu soldiers to guard the village, bluffing and leading an army to steal Dong Ting and head for Nan 'an. Wargo realized that Shu Zhai was empty and had expected that Jiang Wei would attack Nan 'an, so he led troops to save Nan 'an. Jiang Wei led the troops to Wucheng Mountain, which Wargo had seized. Wei Bing on the mountain; Middle and lower, unstoppable. Jiang Wei can't occupy Wucheng Mountain, so he can't get Nan 'an. Jiang Wei discussed with him that it was better to take Zheng first and then Nan 'an. So Xia Houba stayed in Wucheng Mountain, and Jiang Wei led his chosen men to fetch the mound. Wargo knew that Jiang Wei would be captured if he didn't take Nan 'an, so he ordered his sons Deng Zhong and Bian Shi to ambush Duan Gu with 5,000 troops each. Jiang Wei led his troops to Duangu and was ambushed by stones. Jiang Wei left in battle, and Wargo led the troops to kill him. Shu soldiers were defeated three times. Fortunately, Xia Houba led the troops to kill and saved Jiang Wei. At this time, the Qi stronghold has been breached by Chen Tai, and the whole village has returned to Hanzhong. Jiang Wei did not dare to take Dong Ting and hurried back to the secluded mountain road. Wargo hurried behind, and Jiang Wei ordered the armies to move forward, so as to break their own lines. Chen Tai led the troops to battle, and Jiang Wei was trapped in the core. Zhang Ben led more than a hundred riders into the encirclement and rescued Jiang Wei. Zhang Ben was shot dead by random arrows. Jiang, break back to Hanzhong. It is Jiang Wei's fault that many Shu soldiers were killed. Jiang Weinai was demoted from the above table to a post-general and served as a general.

In the 20th year of Shu-Han Yan Xi (AD 257), Zhuge Dan in Huainan attacked Si Mazhao, and Sun Lin in Soochow helped him, while Si Mazhao fought for the two capitals. Jiang Wei took advantage of dispatch troops to attack Wei. Jiang Wei chose two generals, Uncle Jiang and Fu Qian, who were very courageous. When Jiang Wei sent troops, Fu Jian said, "Wei Bing's grain and grass are all beyond the Great Wall. Now we can take gongs and drums and Shen Ling to the Great Wall. Burning grain and grass first, and then taking Qinchuan directly, the Central Plains can take it every day. " Jiang Wei agreed, so dispatch troops looked at the Great Wall. When Sima Wang heard that Shu soldiers had arrived, he and his men left the city 20 miles and went to the village. The next day, the two armies fought, and Sima Wang went out one after another. Both were beheaded by Fu Qian, the general of Shu, and Jiang Wei led his troops out. Sima Wang abandoned the village and ran to the city, never leaving home. Jiang Wei led the Shu army to attack the city and smashed it with rockets. There are no straw houses in the city. The Shu army piled up the gate with dry wood and set fire to the sky together, and the city was captured. At this point, Wargo led Wei Bing to solve the danger of siege. Wargo camped in Weishui, and Jiang Wei camped opposite two mountains. Wargo stood by and surrendered without fighting, waiting for reinforcements from Guanzhong. After the stalemate, Jiang Wei learned that Si Mazhao had put down the rebellion in Zhuge Dan, Huainan, and moved troops back to Luoyang to lead the troops to save the Great Wall. Jiang Wei was surprised and said, "This time, cutting Wei became a cake!" Withdraw troops and return to Hanzhong.

In the winter of that year, Jiang Wei sent troops to attack Wei again and remained in the village of Qishan Gukou. At this time, Wargo was in the stronghold of Qi, and Longyou military forces were on the hour. Wargo predicted Jiang Wei's Xiazhai area and dug the tunnel early. When the Shu soldiers arrived, they took things from inside. Jiang Wei went to Taniguchi and was divided into three villages. The tunnel was in Zuozhai, Wang Han and Jiang Bin. On the second watch that night, Deng Ailing's lieutenant Zheng Lun led 500 troops to dig from the tunnel to Zuo Ying, and Deng Zhong and Bian Shi led 10,000 troops to attack. The army of diggers rushed out from behind the tent, and Deng Zhong led his troops to kill them from outside the village. Attacked from inside and outside, Wang Han, unable to resist, abandoned the village and left. Jiang Wei heard Zuo Zhai shouting, expecting that there were soldiers inside and outside, so he stood in front of the Zhongjun account and ordered, "Whoever dares to make a move will be beheaded!" If an enemy comes to camp, just shoot it with a bow and arrow. " And ordered the right battalion not to move. Wei Bing called more than ten times, but they were all called back. Only to kill until dawn, Wei Bing dare not enter. Deng Ai went back to the village and sighed, "Jiang Wei has learned the method of Kong Ming. Soldiers don't panic at night, and if they don't mess up, they will change news. What a good general. " The next day, Jiang Wei took the gauntlet and made an appointment with Wargo. The two armies lined up in front of Qishan, and Jiang Wei arranged them according to Zhuge Liang's Eight Arrays. Wargo saw Jiang Wei's Eight Diagrams Array, and he also made a fortune. The left and right portals are the same as the Eight Diagrams Array. Then, the two armies surrounded each other and marched in procession. Wargo was deployed by Zhong Jun. The two armies have had conflicts, and the array is never wrong. Jiang Wei went to the middle, waved the flag and shouted, and suddenly became a "long snake rolling array", trapping Wargo in the core. Wargo didn't know its array and was frightened. Shu soldiers will arrive, and Wargo will lead the troops into conflict. Wargo sighed: "I boasted for a while and fell into Jiang Wei's trap!" " Is critical, Sima Wang led an army into, wargo return to fight. Jiuzhai, Qishan and Wei Jun have been occupied by the Shu army. Sima Wang knew the Eight Diagrams Array because he studied in Jingnan as a child, made friends with the famous Cui and talked about the Eight Diagrams Array. Wargo said to Sima Wang, "Since you know this rule, you will use it to recapture the stronghold of Qi in the future. The next day, Deng Aiyue fought with Jiang Wei. Wargo was at war with Sima Wang and Jiang Wei, but with Zheng Lun as the pioneer, he led an army to attack Qishan. When Jiang Wei learned of Wargo's plan, Liao Hua and Zhang Yi ambushed behind the village. When Jiang Wei was fighting in Sima Wang, he pointed out Wargo's plan. Sima Wang just wants to get into a scuffle. Jiang Wei whipped out his wings, killing Wei Bing and fleeing. After Wargo and Zheng Lun captured Qishan, just over the foot of the mountain, Liao Hua ambushed them. When the two horses crossed, Zheng Lun was beheaded by Liao Hua. Wargo was frightened. When he retired, Zhang Yi led his troops to kill him. Wei Jun suffered a crushing defeat. Wargo fought hard and was shot with four arrows. Wargo rushed to Weinan Camp to discuss with Sima Wang the plan of withdrawing troops. Sima Wang proposed to use double agents to return the late master to Jiang Wei. Wargo ordered all party member to go to Chengdu with the golden ball treasure, and formed a relationship with Huang Hao, the favorite of his late master. It was rumoured that Jiang Wei held a grudge against his late master and was about to defect to Wei. Huang Hao learned of his death, and sent someone to announce Jiang Wei's entry into the DPRK overnight. Jiang Wei didn't know what was going on, so he had to move troops back to Korea.

In the first year of Wei Jingyuan (AD 260), Si Mazhao killed Wang Wei Cao Hui and made Cao Huan Yuan Di. Jiang Wei took the opportunity to attack Wei again, with 150 thousand troops, and came to kill Qishan in three ways. Wargo summoned all the generals of Qi Shanzhai to discuss, and Wang was willing to enter the Shu army by pretending to surrender and take things. Wargo also divided the king's five thousand soldiers and went to meet the Shu soldiers overnight. Wang Kui told Jiang Wei that his uncle Wang Jing was killed by Si Mazhao, and he joined the Shu army to avenge his uncle. Jiang Wei knew his trick, so he echoed it and ordered Wang Kui to lead 3,000 people to transport grain and grass, leaving 2,000 people to lead the way to attack Qishan. Afraid of Jiang Wei's suspicion, Wang Kui led 3,000 people. Jiang Wei let people lurk in the dark to prevent Wang Kui's spies. Ten days later, the messenger sent by Wang Kui to Wargo was arrested, and the letter was found out, asking Wargo to send troops to the altar valley to meet the grain delivery on August 20. Jiang Wei changed the letter from August 20th to August15th, and sent someone to deliver it disguised as Wei Jun. There are hundreds of grain wagons, unloading grain and rice, loading dry wood to light a fire, covering them with green cloth, and letting Fu Qian lead two thousand troops to surrender to Wei under the banner of transporting grain. Jiang Wei and Xia Houba each led an army and ambushed in the valley. And make Jiang Shu, Liao Hua, yi cheung each lead troops to take Qishan. Wargo was overjoyed to see this book. When it expired, Wargo led fifty thousand soldiers to the altar valley. Wargo just crossed the mountain, and Fu Qian led the troops to fight, and the car caught fire. Jiang Wei and Xia Houba saw the fire and killed Wei Bing together. Wargo dropped his armor and helmet, his war horse, mixed with the infantry, and fled over the mountains. Wang Ben prepared the grain and grass vehicles in advance and waited for the big event. Unexpected things leaked out, and Wargo was defeated, so he set fire to grain and grass vehicles and led troops westward. Jiang Wei led the army to chase, and Wang Kui returned to Hanzhong and burned the plank road and pass. Jiang Wei was afraid that Hanzhong would fall, so he didn't chase Wargo. He set out to hunt down Wang Kui from the path. The king was besieged by Shu soldiers and threw himself into the river. Although Jiang Wei defeated Wargo, he fought many defeats and destroyed the plank road, so he led his troops back to Hanzhong.

In the fifth year of Jing Yao in Shu Han Dynasty (AD 262), Jiang Wei sent people to repair the plank road, reorganize weapons and hay, and send troops to attack Wei. The purpose of this invasion of Tao Yang is to hoard food and grass in this city and contact the Qiang people for long-term planning. After Wargo got the news, he consulted with Sima Wang, and made Sima Wang lead an army to ambush in Taoyang City, opening four doors wide to end the matter. Wargo led an army to crouch in the Houhe River, leaving some commanders to guard Qishan. Jiang Wei took Xia Houba as the front line and led an army to take Tao Yang. When Xia Houba saw that there were four doors wide open in Taoyang City, he thought there were no soldiers in the city, so he went in first, followed by others. Just arrived at the urn, suddenly a gunshot, the city was littered with stones, and all the 500 soldiers died at the gate. Sima Wang fought our way out, and the Shu soldiers were defeated. Then Jiang Wei led reinforcements and defeated Sima Wang to a village not far from the city. It was the second watch of the night, and Wargo entered Shu Village from Houhe City Army. Sima Wang led the troops into the city, attacked twice, and the Shu soldiers were defeated. Jiang Wei took advantage of Qi Dazhai's emptiness and made Zhang Yi lead his troops to attack Qishan. Wargo was afraid that Shu soldiers would attack Qi Shanzhai, so he left Deng Zhongshou behind and led his troops to Qishan. Jiang Wei learned that Wargo was going to Qishan, so he left Fu Qian to guard the village and led his troops to Qishan to meet Zhang Yi. Jiang Wei and Zhang Yi were under attack, and Wargo folded for a while, but he couldn't get out of the Qi stronghold.

The late Lord listened to the nonsense of eunuch Huang Hao: "Jiang Wei has been defeated in many wars, so he can order Yan Yu to take his place." So he wrote back to Jiang Wei. Jiang Wei retired from Hanzhong and returned to Chengdu, knowing that Huang Hao was in trouble. After the fight, the Lord asked Huang Hao to kill him, and the latter only asked Huang Hao to confess to Jiang Wei. Jiang Wei left to see Zheng Zheng. Xi suggested that Jiang Wei go to the middle to level the field. On the one hand, he must be cooked to help the army. Both can be used in Longyou County; Among the three, Ren Wei did not dare to face up to Hanzhong; Fourth, the general has the military power outside, and people can't figure it out, so they can avoid disasters. Jiang Wei was overjoyed and regarded it as a treasure. Jiang Wei invited the queen and the queen followed him. Jiang Wei returned to Hanzhong, assigned his generals to guard the pass, and led 80,000 troops to settle the fields in the stack, thinking that it would be a long-term solution.

Jiang Wei failed to finish Zhuge Liang's unfinished business, so the Northern Expedition ended.
