Historical Information
A native of Yiyang, Hu Ji served directly under Zhuge Liang and was noted for his constructive admonishments which the prime minister often encouraged. He was appointed as commander of Hanzhong after Wang Ping's death.
In 256, he was supposed to lead a separate unit and meet with Jiang Wei at Shanggui, but ended up getting lost. His tardiness partially caused Jiang Wei's defeat at Duangu. Two years later, Shu was now on the defensive after their campaigns to invade Wei failed. Hu Ji was at Hanzhong with Wang Han and Jiang Bin at the time, though he had been ordered by Liu Shan to retreat to Hanshou.
