"Deploying troops is like setting up a chessboard… one wrong move, and regret is useless…" The unique singing style was full of charm. The story tells of how Zhuge Liang, after losing Jieting due to his misuse of Ma Su, had no choice but to lay out the Empty City Strategy to deter Sima Yi.

Sichuan Province has East Ma Chao Road, Ma Chao West Road, Huang Zhong District, and so on. But Zhuge Wu Marquis got an entire major district named after him: Wuhou District.
