Zhuge Shang

Zhuge Shang (240s[2] - c.November 263)[3][1] was a Chinese military general of the state of Shu Han in the Three Kingdoms period of China.

In 263, Deng Ai, a general from Shu's rival state Cao Wei, led an army to attack Shu and showed up in Fu (涪; in present-day Mianyang, Sichuan) after taking a shortcut from Yinping (陰平; present-day Wen County, Longnan, Gansu).

Zhuge Zhan led the Shu forces to Fu to resist the enemy but retreated to Mianzhu (緜竹) when he heard that the Shu vanguard had been defeated.

In the ensuing battle at Mianzhu, the Shu forces were defeated and both Zhuge Zhan and Zhuge Shang were killed in action.

Our failure to eliminate Huang Hao earlier on resulted in our State being stuck in this disastrous situation now.
