Zhuge Zhan is a precocious talent, and he has been very clever since he was a child. In the 12th year of Jianxing (234), Zhuge Liang wrote to Zhu Gejin, the younger brother of the army, saying, "Jin Zhan is 8 years old, smart and lovely. I don't think he will be a Zhong Er." (Biography of the Three Kingdoms Shu Shu Zhuge Liang, quoted below) shows his expectation and worry about his son's growth. 17 years old, married Princess Shu. To this end, Shu named him the captain of the ride. This is a military attache slightly below the general. The following year, he was promoted to commander Yulin, who was in charge of guarding the palace. Later, he was promoted to shoot a captain, lieutenant, assistant minister and general as military advisers. At that time, people in Shu cherished Zhuge Zhan's virtue, affection and talent because they didn't forget the old virtues and missed Zhuge Liang very much. All the achievements were attributed to him, saying that he suggested and advocated them. In fact, he borrowed the shadow of his father Zhuge Liang, which is just a reputation. In the fourth year after Shu (26 1), Zhuge Zhan took charge of the generals and made peace with Dong Jue, the general of the auxiliary country. In the winter of AD 6 (263), Wei entered Sichuan from Yinping via Jinggu Road (now south of Wenxian County, Gansu Province), and Zhuge Zhan led the whole army to stop in Fucheng (now east of Mianyang, Sichuan Province). His vanguard troops were defeated by Wei Jun and had to retreat to Mianzhu. At this time, Wargo sent him a letter to persuade him to surrender, which said, "Those who surrender will be regarded as evil kings." Zhuge Zhan was furious after reading the letter and beheaded the envoy sent by Wargo. Then, he led the troops against Wei Jun, and was defeated and died on the battlefield. At the age of 37.
