He was a great general of Wu during the Three Kingdoms period. He was a powerful young man who read the sons of Confucius and served as the Chancellor of Shu County when he was about 18 years old. In 204 A.D., he led eight hundred soldiers to follow Liu Biao, but because he lived in Nanyang, he did not see any advancement. In 205 A.D., he was transferred to Huang Zu, who was a mortal animal. During this period, he shot Ling Cao, the father of Ling Tong, and thus had a fatherly feud with Ling Tong. In 208 A.D., he returned to Wu to be used by Sun Quan and made great achievements.

He was buried in Fuchi Town, Yangxin, Hubei Province. (Note: In the Battle of Yiling, none of Wu's generals, including Pan Zhang, Gan Ning and Ma Zhong, were killed in action. It is false that Gan Ning was shot to death in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.)

[edit]History books

Gan Ning was "a young man of great vigor and strength, and a good traveler" (Three Kingdoms Zhi-Wu Shu-Gan Ning Biography). But he did not do his job, and he used to gather a group of young boys and make himself the leader. They roamed around in groups, carrying bows and arrows, with bird feathers on their heads and bells on their bodies. At that time, when the people heard the bell ringing, they knew it was Gan Ning's gang that had arrived. The people called them the "Jin Fan Thieves".

Gan Ning had a great reputation in the county for killing people and hiding their lives. Whenever he went out or entered, he was very powerful. On foot, he displays his carriage and horseback, and on the water, he connects his light boat. His attendants were all dressed in brocade, and wherever he went, he shone with splendor. When they stayed, they used to tie up the boats with brocade, and when they left, they had to cut them off and abandon them to show that they were rich and luxurious.

(First of all, Gan Ning was an official under Liu Yan. People said that Liu Yan raided the people's fat and wealth, and Gan Ning avenged for the people by assassinating Liu Yan, which was unsuccessful, and then threw himself to the east.)

The local officials of his city or those who interacted with him, if they received him in a grand manner, Gan Ning would be devoted to him and would go through fire and water for him; if they did not, Gan Ning would indulge his men in looting the other side's assets, and even thieving and murdering the officials and officials. This situation has lasted for more than twenty years. After that, Gan Ning stopped attacking and plundering others. He read some books and studied the doctrine of the Hundred Schools of Thought, and wanted to make a difference, so he led more than 800 men to attach himself to Liu Biao and stayed in Nanyang.

Liu Biao was one of the famous "Eight Junes" at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and was then the assassin of Jingzhou. But just as Zhuge Liang analyzed Liu Biao's inability to keep Jingzhou in the "Longzhong Pairing", Gan Ning also found that Liu Biao was not a military man, and would not be able to achieve anything in the situation of the world's instability and the disputes between the generals at that time. At that time, he heard that Sun Quan was "recruiting handsome and famous men in Jiangdong, and Lu Su and Zhuge Jin were the first guests" (Three Kingdoms Zhi-Wu Shu-Wu Zhuan), so he decided to go to join him.

About the eighth year of Jian'an (203), Gan Ning passed through Xiakou (present-day Wuhan, Hubei) and was retained by Huang Zu, the governor of Jiangxia, for three years. Huang Zu kept Gan Ning, but treated him as a "mortal". Huang Zu's subordinate governor Su Fei recommended Gan Ning several times, but Huang Zu not only did not appoint him, but also sent people to seduce Gan Ning's subordinates, which led to the gradual departure of Gan Ning's subordinates. Gan Ning knew that Huang Zu could not stay with him, and wanted to abandon him, but he did not have a safe way to do so, and thus, he was sad and depressed, and could not do anything about it.

In the twelfth year of Jian'an (207), Sun Quan led his troops to attack Jiangxia in the west, and Huang Zu was defeated and fled in distress. Gan Ning broke the back of the army for him. He was so calm and collected that he raised his bow and shot Sun Quan's lieutenant Ling Cao. Sun Quan's army dared not pursue him any further, and Huang Zu's life was saved. But Huang Zu still did not use Gan Ning, and Gan Ning decided to leave.

Su Fei, aware of Gan Ning's intention, invited him to a banquet, and when he was drunk, he said to him, "I have recommended him several times, but the Lord refused to appoint you. The days and months pass by, life geometry? You should make long-term plans, find a confidant, and achieve great things!" Gan Ning paused for a moment and said, "I also want to leave, but unfortunately there is no suitable opportunity." Su Fei said, "I'll ask the Lord to send you to be the governor of Zhu Mu (northwest of present-day Huanggang, Hubei), and at that time, you can decide to go on your own." Gan Ning was very happy.

So, Su Fei offered to make Gan Ning the chief of Zhu, and Huang Zu agreed. Gan Ning recruited back some of his men who had left, and gathered some more who were willing to follow him, and led them to Sun Quan.

Because of Zhou Yu's and Lu Meng's recommendations, Sun Quan held Gan Ning in very high regard and treated him as he had been treated by his old ministers. Gan Ning was in a happy mood, and immediately offered his advice to Sun Quan: "Now the Han Dynasty is waning, and Cao Cao's marriage will be a usurpation. South Jing land, mountains and hills shape convenient, river circulation, is the country's western potential. Ning has been watching Liu Biao, and he is not far away. Son and inferior, not able to inherit the base of the industry also. The supreme father when early regulation, not after manipulation. Figure of the plan, it is appropriate to take Huang Zu first. Zu this year, the old, fainting has been very much, the wealth and lack of grain, around the deception, the business of goods and profits, invasion of mandarins, mandarins heart resentment. Boats and warships, not repaired, idle farming, the army can not be. The supreme father is now going, its broken can be sure. A broken Zu army, drum line and west, west according to the Chu Pass, the momentum is wide, you can gradually regulate Ba, Shu "(The Three Kingdoms - Wu Shu - Gan Ning biography"). Sun Quan appreciated this opinion and strengthened his determination to use troops.

Then Zhang Zhao was present, and was not impressed by Gan Ning's opinion. He said, "Wu Xia Ye Ye, if the army is to be carried out, I am afraid it will lead to chaos." Gan Ning nonchalantly retorted, "The country to Xiao He's appointment to pay the king, the king live in the guard and worry about chaos, Xi Xi Mu ancient people?" Sun Quan saw the two arguing, so he raised his cup to Gan Ning to persuade him to drink, and said: "Xingba, this year, so the wine, decided to pay the Secretary. Qing, but when you are reluctant to build a strategy, so that must be Kezu, then the work of the Secretary, why do not you think Zhang Changshi's words" ("Three Kingdoms Zhi-Wu Shu-Gan Ning biography").

In the spring of the thirteenth year of Jian'an (208), Sun Quan ordered Gan Ning to go on a westward expedition to Jiangxia, where he captured Huang Zu, and routed and captured all of his men. After the victory, Sun Quan assigned a troop to Gan Ning to command, and he was stationed at Dangkou.

Sun Quan captured Huang Zu and made two boxes to hold the heads of Huang Zu and Su Fei. Su Fei entrusted someone to ask Gan Ning for advice. Gan Ning said, "Even if Su Fei doesn't say anything, will I, Gan Ning, forget his kindness?" At that time Sun Quan set up a banquet to celebrate the success of his generals. Gan Ning stepped down from his seat to kowtow to Sun Quan, exchanging tears of blood and tears, telling Sun Quan of Su Fei's past kindness to him and stating, "Gan Ning, if I had not met Su Fei, I would have died long ago to fill the gutter, and of course I would not have been able to do my best to serve you. Now that Su Fei's crime is punishable by death, I take the liberty of pleading with you to spare his life." Sun Quan was touched and said, "I can spare him, but what if he escapes?" Gan Ning vouched, "Su Fei is spared from decapitation, and is favored by your regeneration; even if he were driven away, he would not leave, so how could he run away! If he runs away, put my head in the box instead of his!" Sun Quan agreed to Gan Ning's request and pardoned Su Fei.

In the winter of the same year, when Cao Cao marched into Jingzhou, Gan Ning followed Zhou Yu to defeat Cao Cao at Wulin (see the Battle of Red Cliff), and made his mark. Then, he went to the southern county to attack Cao Ren, but failed to capture it. Gan Ning suggested that he should lead his troops to take Yiling (present-day Yichang, Hubei), upstream of Jiangling, by a small road, in order to attack Cao Ren from the east and west and force him to retreat northward. Zhou Yu ordered him to lead his troops there, and Gan Ning traveled day and night, and indeed captured it, and thus, defended the city.

When Cao Ren saw the situation, he immediately sent 5,000 to 6,000 men to besiege Yiling in an attempt to recapture this strategic location. At that time, Gan Ning had only a few hundred soldiers under his command, and with the new soldiers added after the city was broken, there were only about 1,000 of them. Cao's army set up a high platform outside the city and shot arrows from above into the city for several days, the arrows were as dense as rain, the military officials were scared, but only Gan Ning smiled and laughed. Gan Ning sent his men out of the city to ask for help from Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu adopted Lu Meng's plan and led his generals to lift the siege of Yiling. Cao Ren lost more than half of his men and fled in the night. On the way, they were intercepted and lost more than 300 horses. Gan Ning took advantage of the victory to pursue Cao Ren's army and prepared to fight with him. Cao Ren did not dare to fight again and withdrew his army to the north.

After the Battle of Red Cliff, Zhou Yu and Gan Ning persuaded Sun Quan to go west to take Sichuan. Sun Quan was hesitant and went to seek Liu Bei's advice. Liu Bei, who had already planned to take over Ba Shu, skillfully discouraged him. Sun Quan missed the opportunity to take over Ba Shu, which was then in Liu Bei's hands.

Later, Gan Ning accompanied Lu Su to defend Yiyang (present-day Hunan) against Guan Yu. At that time, Guan Yu's army was in full bloom, claiming to be 30,000 strong, and selecting 5,000 of his own troops to gather at a shallow beach more than 10 miles upstream, claiming that he wanted to make the transition on foot by night. Lu Su summoned his generals to discuss countermeasures. Gan Ning had three hundred soldiers at that time, said: "can be repeated with five hundred people benefit me, I go to the right, to ensure that Yu heard me spit, do not dare to wade in the water, wade in the water that is my bird" ("Three Kingdoms Zhi-Wu Shu-Gan Ning biography"). Lu Su immediately chose a thousand men to give him. Gan Ning rushed to the upper reaches of the river to set up defense. When Guan Yu heard of Gan Ning's arrival, he gave up his plan to cross the river when he saw that the other side was prepared, and instead bundled firewood on the bank as a military camp. Later people called this place "Guan Yu Set". Sun Quan honored Gan Ning's achievement and made him the governor of Xiling, in charge of Yangxin and Xiapian counties.

In the first month of the 18th year of Jian'an (213), Cao Cao attacked the mouth of the Moo Shu River (south of Chao County, Anhui Province) with 400,000 men and drank from the Yangtze River. Sun Quan led 70,000 troops to meet the attack, and sent Gan Ning to lead 3,000 people as the front governor. Sun Quan secretly ordered Gan Ning to attack Cao's camp at night to frustrate him, for which he was given rice wine. Gan Ning chose more than a hundred elite **** food. After eating, Gan Ning poured wine in a silver bowl, drank two bowls himself first, and then poured it to the governor under him. The governor fell on his knees and refused to take the wine. Gan Ning drew his sword and placed it on his knee, and shouted: "If you know the Supreme Being, who is the same as Gan Ning? If Gan Ning is not willing to die, why is he willing to die alone" ("The Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms - Wu Shu - Gan Ning's Biography")? Seeing the stern look on Gan Ning's face, the Dudu immediately stood up and saluted, respectfully accepting the cup of wine and drinking it. Then, pouring wine to the soldiers, each with a silver bowl. At the second watch of the night, Gan Ning led his men, wrapped in armor and armed, to sneak under Cao Cao's camp, pull off their antlers, and rush into the camp. Cao Cao's army was in chaos, Gan Ning took advantage of the chaos and led his soldiers out of Cao Cao's camp without losing a single soldier, and the whole division returned. Sun Quan was overjoyed and rewarded Gan Ning with 1,000 silks, 100 swords, and 2,000 more soldiers. When Cao Cao saw that it was difficult to win, he stayed for more than a month and returned to the north. From then on, Sun Quan thought more highly of Gan Ning.

In the spring of the nineteenth year of Jian'an (214), Cao Cao sent Zhu Guang to be the governor of Lujiang, stationed in Wancheng (present-day Qianshan, Anhui Province), opened up rice paddies, and sent spies to secretly cross the river, recruiting forces opposed to Sun Quan that were tempting Duyang (present-day Jiangxi Province), in a desperate attempt to attack Sun Quan from the inside and from the outside. When Lu Meng learned the information, he suggested to Sun Quan: "The area around Wan Cheng, the land is fertile, if it is harvested in one season, Cao Cao's power is bound to be strengthened, and if it is harvested for several seasons in a row, it is bound to become a big trouble. In my opinion, it should be gotten rid of immediately." Sun Quan took this advice and personally conquered Wan Cheng. Sun Quan asked the generals for advice. All of them said that to take down the city, they had to pile up mountains of soil and make attacking tools. Lu Meng said, "It will take a lot of time to build up the soil mountain and build up the attacking tools. Once Cao's reinforcements arrive, it will be difficult to capture the city. The only way is to make a strong attack and take down the courtyard city in one go." Lu Meng recommended Gan Ning as the governor of the ascending city.

When the city was attacked, Lu Meng himself beat the war drums in support. Gan Ning was the first one to climb up to the city, and finally captured the city of Anhui and captured Zhu Guang. (Gan Ning was not covered with armor, only a brocade coat, holding a thick iron chain, feet up the ladder to the city, stray bullets can not get close to his body...) He could be a fireman...) Zhang Liao heard the news, the rate of reinforcements to the clip stone (now Tongcheng North), heard that the city of Anhui has been lost, but had to retreat. After the battle, Gan Ning was assessed to be the second most meritorious, after Lv Meng, and was honored as the General of the Folding Charge.

Gan Ning was "rough and fierce, but he had a good plan, and he was light on money and respect for the soldiers, so he was able to feed the soldiers, and the soldiers were happy to use their lives for him" (Three Kingdoms Records - Wu Shu - Gan Ning Biography).

In the 20th year of Jian'an (215), Gan Ning accompanied Sun Quan to attack Hefei (see Battle of Hefei). The battle was unfavorable, and with a plague epidemic in the army, he had to order a withdrawal. The large army had already withdrawn from the battle. Only Lu Meng, Jiang Qin, Ling Tong, Gan Ning, and more than 1,000 tiger soldiers under the carriage followed Sun Quan and were stationed north of the city of Changjin (east of present-day Hefei, Anhui Province).

Cao Cao's general Zhang Liao, who had been scouting the area, took the opportunity to attack with his foot soldiers, and Chen Wu was killed in battle. Sun Quan general Gan Ning, Lv Meng to resist, general Ling Tong rate guards fight to the death, in combat, Gan Ning bow shooting the enemy, asked why the drums do not sound, the courage of the brave and resolute, the courage to crown a moment. Sun Quan witnessed all this and increased his respect for Gan Ning. Under the heroic resistance of Gan Ning and the others, the speed of Cao's attack slowed down. Ling Tong led 300 soldiers to protect Sun Quan from the siege. Sun Quan fled to the river bridge, which was half dismantled with no boards, so Sun Quan hurriedly urged his steed to cross it. General He Qi led 3,000 men to meet Sun Quan at the south of the river, and Sun Quan was spared. The battle came down to 300 soldiers, except for Ling Tong, and none of them survived.

Ling Tong was the son of Ling Cao, who was shot to death by Gan Ning during the attack on Huang Zu. Because of his father's death, Ling and Gan were in deep conflict, and Gan Ning was thus on the defensive against Ling Tong, avoiding meeting him as much as possible. Sun Quan ordered Ling Tong not to fight against Gan Ning.

On one occasion, Gan Ning and Ling Tong met at Lv Meng's place for a drink, and when the wine was flowing, Ling Tong stood up and danced with his sword, and Gan Ning stood up and said, "I can dance with two halberds!" Lu Meng saw that the two had the intention to fight, so they separated in the middle, said: "Gan Ning can dance, but still not as exquisite as I dance." So he used his sword and shield to separate them. Later, Sun Quan knew that Ling Tong could not forget his father's revenge, so he let Gan Ning lead his troops to a place in the semi-state instead. But at the critical moment when the enemy was at hand, the two were able to put aside their personal grudges and unite against the enemy, which was rare and precious.

Gan Ning's temperament is rough and fierce. A boy in his kitchen made a mistake. He fled to Lu Meng, who was afraid that he would be killed by Gan Ning, so he hid him and did not send him back immediately. After Gan Ning brought gifts to visit Lu Meng's mother, to see his mother, Lu Meng called out the boy to return to Gan Ning, Gan Ning promised not to kill him. However, after a while, when he returned to the ship, Gan Ning tied the boy to a mulberry tree and shot him to death with his bow. Then he ordered the men on board to reinforce the ship's cables, and took off his clothes and lay down in the ship. Lu Meng was furious and sounded the drum to gather troops, ready to attack Gan Ning on the boat. Gan Ning heard the commotion and deliberately lay down and did not get up. Lu Meng's mother ran to Lu Meng with bare feet to dissuade him: "Your father treats you like flesh and blood, and you have a great thing to do, why do you want to attack and kill Gan Ning out of personal anger? On the day of Ning's death, even if the Supreme Father does not ask, you are an illegal subject." Lu Meng usually very filial, heard his mother's words, heart to understand over. He personally came to Gan Ning's ship and greeted him with a smile, "Xingba, my old mother is waiting for Qing to eat, hurry up!" Gan Ning was full of shame, and with tears in his eyes, he said to Lu Meng chokingly, "Negative to you" (Three Kingdoms Zhi-Wu Shu-Gan Ning Biography). He then went to see Lu Meng's mother and feasted with her for the rest of the day.

When Gan Ning died, Sun Quan y deplored it.

Gan Ning's temperament was irritable, and he was easily agitated. When he was angry, he was quick to hit and even kill people, and sometimes he did not listen to Sun Quan's orders completely. But he was brave and resolute, bold and cheerful, resourceful, valued talent, was generous with his money, and cared for his subordinates, and his soldiers were happy to follow his orders. Sun Quan was good at employing people, "not seeking to prepare for one person", and could "forget his shortcomings and use his strengths". Under Sun Quan, Gan Ning developed his own strengths and advantages, and became a famous "fighting general" in the Three Kingdoms era.

Later, he accompanied Zhou Yu in defeating Cao Gong in Wulin. At that time, there were hundreds of soldiers under his command, and the newly acquired, only full of thousands of people. Cao Ren ordered 5,000 to 6,000 people to surround Ning. Ning was attacked for many days, the enemy set up high towers, rain shot in the city, the soldiers were afraid, but Ning smiled and laughed. He sent an envoy to report to Yu, who used Lu Meng's plan to relieve the siege with his generals. Later, he joined Lu Su in Yiyang to reject Guan Yu.

[edit]Folklore

Ganning Learned His Art

To the left of the Qinglong Falls, surrounded by mountains, there is a large pingba several miles in circumference. The land is fertile, and there are hundreds of villagers living here who are farming and weaving without worrying about food and clothing, which is very eye-catching, but they are either robbed by bandits or oppressed by the rich, and the government has imposed a tyrannical levy, which makes it difficult for them to survive here.

Once upon a time, there was a newlywed couple here, the man was called Gantian, the woman was called Weiniang, the two were hardworking and frugal, and the life was very sweet. Soon, a son, named "Gan Ning", twelve, three years old, read all the four books and five classic, the four neighbors of the townspeople praise him for his intelligence.

After the mother and son tearfully sent away the townspeople, the teenager Gan Ning said to his mother, "This world is difficult for the poor to live, I intend to go to find a teacher to learn martial arts, for the folks to get rid of the vermin, to avenge my father." After hearing this, Mrs. Weaving said, "Good is good, but you are still young, no real kung fu, hard fighting is not good!" . That night, the weaver cut off a lock of her own hair, mixed with green hemp into a pair of straw shoes, boiled a dozen eggs, to her son wrapped, the next morning, the weaver sent her son on the road. Gan Ning, carrying his ancestral bow and arrows and holding a hunting dog in his hand, said goodbye to the weaver and headed straight for the mountains. He turned a corner and a corner, over a mountain and a mountain, climbing the steep wall, over the cliff, a force to come to the cloud peak in front of the view, only to see a mountain full of clouds and mist, there is no way to go. Gan Ning is worried, face to face came an old woman, the old woman asked: "children, so big clouds, where do you go ah?" Gan Ning said, "Granny, I'm going up the mountain to learn from the Immortal Master." The old woman said, "It's hard to find an immortal master, so I advise you to go back earlier!" Gan Ning said firmly, "No matter how hard it is, no matter how bitter it is, I will definitely seek the master to learn the art!" Gan Ning said in detail about the bandits, wealthy people and government officials in his hometown, the old woman was touched, so she pointed towards the mountain and said, "Go ahead, there is a small temple not far in front of you, and there is an old Taoist in the temple, who is highly skilled in martial arts, so please ask him to teach you!" After saying this, the old woman disappeared. Gan Ning was puzzled, then the clouds parted, a small temple appeared in front of him, he accelerated his pace straight to the small temple.

Entered the temple, only to see an old Taoist and a small apprentice is hammering a bow and arrow on the red stove, just hit the bow and arrow is still red, that the small Taoist then held in the hand, open the bow and arrow, aimed at the three large incense, "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh," three arrows in a row, unbiased, arrows out of the incense extinguished, Gan Ning watched the dumbfounded, and immediately knelt down in front of the old Taoist: "I hope that the master accepts the gift of bowing to the disciple!" The old Taoist busily went forward to help Gan Ning asked: "Are you Gan Tian's son?" "Precisely." After Gan Ning reported his intentions to his master, the old Taoist nodded his head and said, "I already know that you want to learn the art of ridding the people of evil." He said, "I have already known that you want to learn the art to save the people from harm". He said, "I have already known that you want to learn the art to save the people from harm".

The old Taoist said to Gan Ning with great satisfaction, "All right, go and get rid of the villagers!"
