After Sun Quan failed to make peace, he decided to face Cao Wei directly and avoid fighting on two fronts. At the same time, Lu Xun was appointed commander-in-chief to command the army. After seven or eight months of stalemate between Lu Xun and Liu Bei, the Shu army was finally defeated in the battle of Yiling (also known as the battle of Yiling or the battle of Xiaoting [xiāotíng]).
In this World War I, Liu Beijun was almost completely annihilated, with tens of thousands of casualties, and only Liu Bei was spared. After fleeing to Bai Di, Liu Bei fell ill and died in Bai Di.
Liu Bei's death, the official history of Chen Shou's "Three Kingdoms" records: Zhang Wu was three years old and died in Yong 'an Palace in the summer of April at the age of 63.
A word "Mimi" is over-it doesn't explain clearly how Liu Bei died. Therefore, the cognition of Liu Bei's death in later generations is: he died of illness in Baidicheng.
However, more than a thousand years after the Three Kingdoms, an ancient book unearthed in Shanshan, Xinjiang, is enough to reshape people's cognition.
Transcript of Notes on the Three Kingdoms by Shanshan Pei, Xinjiang
Zhu Pei's earliest Romance of the Three Kingdoms was discovered in Shanshan, Xinjiang. Because of the dry climate in Xinjiang, it has been preserved for thousands of years.
In this incomplete volume, there is a sentence that is not recorded in the official history, which involves Liu Bei's death: I was sick at first, but my ears were loose, and then I turned to other diseases, and I was almost helpless.
Diarrhea:
Emergency prescription for elbow in the eastern Jin dynasty: short for dysentery,
Tang Sun Simiao's "Emergency Use: A Thousand Women's Recipe": It is called diarrhea if it is unpleasant.
There is something wrong with Liu Bei's toilet.
Liu Bei later said that he turned to other diseases because of diarrhea, which was fatal: there was almost nothing he could do. I just can't do it myself.
Obviously, Liu Bei may be terminally ill because of some complication caused by diarrhea, and then his whole body has changed because of gastrointestinal diseases.
I boldly speculate that Liu Bei's terminal illness may be a terminal illness such as gastric cancer or intestinal cancer.
At that time, Liu Bei was an old man in his sixties. On the one hand, he was defeated by Lu Xun, a "nobody" who was eager to attack the heart; On the other hand, he is terminally ill. It is strange that he is still alive.
Liu Bei's death is so sad that Chen Shou, who was born in Shu, will not be described in detail in the official history.
