In the long history of the Three Kingdoms period, the Shu Han dynasty founded by Liu Bei was once a regional power, but ultimately failed to escape the fate of extinction. Today, we will explore how the Shu Han dynasty was destroyed.

First, we need to understand the establishment of Shu Han. Liu Bei established the Shu Han dynasty during the Three Kingdoms period, claiming to be a descendant of the Han dynasty and established a powerful regime in the name of restoring the Han dynasty. However, over time, many problems arose within Shu Han, coupled with external pressure, which gradually weakened its strength.

In 263 AD, Deng Ai, a general of the Cao Wei dynasty, took advantage of the internal emptiness of Shu Han and led an army to attack it. He adopted a surprise attack tactic, successfully breached the defense line of Shu Han, and advanced directly towards Chengdu. At this time, Liu Shan, the last emperor of Shu Han, was incompetent and unable to organize effective resistance. In November of the same year, Liu Shan surrendered to Deng Ai, marking the official extinction of Shu Han.

It is worth mentioning that although Shu Han was destroyed by Cao Wei, not all descendants of Liu Bei were killed. According to the "Records of the Three Kingdoms", Liu Shan was relocated to Luoyang after surrendering and was granted the title of Anle Duke. His descendants were also allowed to retain their noble status and live in Luoyang. This indicates that Cao Wei adopted a lenient attitude towards the descendants of Liu Bei and did not carry out massacres.

In summary, the Shu Han dynasty, once glorious after being founded by Liu Bei, was ultimately destroyed by Cao Wei. This was mainly due to corruption within Shu Han and external pressure. However, despite the destruction of Shu Han, the descendants of Liu Bei were not completely killed, but were treated leniently by Cao Wei. This history teaches us that no matter how powerful a dynasty may be, there will always be a day of decline, but we can avoid repeating history by remembering it.
