During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang, the chancellor of Shu Han, led a northern expedition to conquer central China. He encountered strong resistance from the Wei army. The soldiers of Shu Han fought bravely and were countless times in danger of death. However, they remained together in hardship, united against the common enemy, encouraging each other and supporting each other. Once, the Shu army was surrounded in a valley with little food and declining morale. Zhuge Liang personally inspected the camps and saw that the soldiers were exhausted but steadfast and not discouraged. Deeply moved, he ordered that the remaining food be evenly distributed to the soldiers and personally led them in the construction of defensive fortifications to repel the enemy's attacks. Under Zhuge Liang's leadership, the Shu Han soldiers united their forces, resisted bravely, and finally broke through. Their spirit of solidarity in times of hardship has become a story that inspires generations.
