Historical figures of the same period related to Zhou Yu

Sun Ce (175-200), courtesy name Bo Fu (伯符), was a native of Fu Chun (present-day Fuyang, Zhejiang Province), Wu County. He was the son of Sun Jian and the eldest brother of Sun Quan. Sun Ce was one of the most powerful men in Jiangdong at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and was nicknamed "Little Bastard". He was nicknamed "Little King". He died at the age of 26 after being stabbed by an assassin with poison. After his brother Sun Quan became emperor, he was posthumously named King Huan of Changsha.

Sun Ce (Sanguo Zhi 11) Sun Ce was born of the Wu Clan and was the eldest son of Sun Jian. In the turbulent times of the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Sun Jian, as a local general, was often on the battlefield all year round, and the heavy responsibility of raising and educating his children fell to Mrs. Wu. And Mrs. Wu's education of children is also a very good way, always tolerant, coaxing, teaching, so that the children themselves understand, right and wrong, so Sun Ce, Sun Quan brothers courtesy, respect for talent, the two took over their father's base, and ultimately the state of Wu pushed to the highest peak, and Shu, Wei was a tripod situation.

In 192 AD, Sun Jian was killed in battle at the age of thirty-seven. Sun Ce was eighteen years old at the time, and he brought back Sun Jian's coffin and buried it in Qu'a County (present-day Danyang County, Jiangsu Province). After the incident, Sun Ce crossed the river and stayed in Jiangdu (present-day Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province), where he organized a group of handsome men to avenge his father's death.

Sun Ce is cheerful, straightforward, generous, good at listening to the views of his subordinates, very good at employing people, and speak with a sense of humor, so he won the support of the people, the people are willing to fight for his loyalty.

The famous scholar Zhang Vast lived in Jiangdu because he lost his mother. Sun Ce paid several visits to him and studied with him the general situation of the world. Sun Ce first expressed his views: "At present, the Han Dynasty is in decline, and the world is in a flurry, with heroes and heroes, all of whom have their own armies, each trying to develop their own way of life. No one is acting out of a sense of fairness to help the crisis and chaos. My late father and Yuan **** to break Dong Zhuo, failed in his endeavors, and was unfortunately killed by Huang Zu. Although I am young and illiterate, I am determined to do something. Now, I want to go to Yuan Shu and ask him to hand over my father's old ministry to me, and then go to Danyang (Xuancheng, Anhui Province) to rely on my uncle, Wu Jing, to collect scattered soldiers, and to the east according to the Wu County (Wu County, Jiangsu Province), Huiji (Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province), to take revenge for the shame, and to be the court's foreign clan. What do you think?"

Zhang Vast puts off: "I know the simple, and there are clothes in the body, on your business, it is difficult to help."

Sun Ce further pleaded, "Your fame is known far and wide. The people of the four directions, aspire to admiration. Today's matter, my intention, success or failure, by your word. You must be frank with me. If I can realize my ambition and avenge my blood, I will never forget your teaching." When he said to the emotional point, Sun Ce's eyes can not help but fall tears.

Zhang Vast saw Sun Ce's generous words, and the expression of loyalty, y touched, and finally said to Sun Ce his own views: "When the king of Zhou Dynasty was late, Duke Huan of Qi and Duke Wen of Jin were able to rise up; once the royal family is peaceful, the vassals can only pay tribute to the Zhou Dynasty, and do their duty as a vassal. You have inherited your father's valor and warlike spirit. If you can stay in Danyang and gather the troops of Wu County and Huiji, then Jing and Yang can be swept away, and you can avenge the shame of your father's death in a matter of days. At that time, you rely on the Yangtze River, to develop the power and virtue, sweep away the group, Kuangsui Han, the work built, will never be inferior to the Qi Huan, Jin Wen, will certainly be immortalized for generations to come, not just as a foreign clan it? At present, the world is chaotic and difficult, if you want to build a career, when the south ferry, I will go with my friends to support you."

Sun Ce listened to Zhang Vast's words, the heart drumming difficult to calm: "A word is a deal! I'll start moving right away! I have an old mother and a weak brother, it is inconvenient to travel with me, now all entrusted to you. I hope you take care of it, so that I have no worries."

Sun Ce immediately rushed to Shouchun to see Yuan Shu. He told Yuan Shu his thoughts with tears in his eyes. Yuan Shu listened to his words and observed his demeanor, and knew that he had a great deal to offer. However, he was reluctant to return Sun Jian's old troops to him immediately. Yuan Shu said, "I have appointed your uncle Wu Jing as the governor of Danyang and your cousin Sun Ben as the captain. Danyang is a place that produces elite soldiers, so you can go to join them and gather soldiers and bravery."

Sun Ce then picked up his mother and took Lu Fan, a native of Ru Nan, and Sun He, a fellow clansman, to Qu'a in Danyang. Relying on his uncle's strength, Sun Ce soon recruited hundreds of soldiers. But unfortunately, he was attacked by Zulang, the marshal of Jing County, and almost lost his life.

Sun Ce had to go to see Yuan Shu again. Yuan Shu then returned more than a thousand of Sun Jian's old troops to Sun Ce's command. From then on, Sun Ce gradually showed his heroic character and attracted people's attention.

The Han court's Taifu Ma Ribei, who held a festival to pacify the Guandong, recruited Sun Ce with a gift in Shouchun, and reported to the court to appoint Sun Ce as a lieutenant of the school of Huaiyi. Yuan Shu's generals Qiao Lei and Zhang Xun also adored Sun Ce's style. Yuan Shu saw Sun Ce's youthful hero, often sighed and said: "so that the art of having a son such as Sun Lang, death is no longer hate" ("Three Kingdoms Zhi-Wu Shu-Sun Chuan Rebellion Biography")!

Sun Ce a cavalry, after committing a crime to avoid punishment, fled into Yuan Shu's barracks, hiding inside the stables. Sun Ce sent a man in pursuit, straight into Yuan Shu's camp, searched out the criminal and beheaded him on the spot. It was only after the incident was over that Sun Ce went to pay a visit to Yuan Shu, explaining the situation and apologizing to him. Yuan Shu said, "Soldiers are good at rebelling, so when ****ing them, why thank them?" (Three Kingdoms Records - Wu Shu - Sun Zhaoyi Biography). This incident, further enhance the reputation of Sun Ce, the army also more reverence for Sun Ce.

Yuan Shu was repetitive and often went back on his word. At first, he promised to appoint Sun Ce as the governor of Jiujiang, but soon changed to Chen Ji, a native of Danyang. Later, Yuan Shu attacked Xuzhou, and asked Lu Kang, the governor of Lujiang (Shu County, southwest of present-day Lujiang, Anhui Province), for 30,000 ducats of grain, which he refused to give, and Yuan Shu was furious. Coincidentally, Sun Ce had previously visited Lu Kang, Lu Kang only let the chief reception, they do not come out to meet, for this reason, Sun Ce harbor a grudge. Yuan Shu sent Sun Ce to attack Lu Kang, and also made a wish, saying: "Before the wrong use of Chen Ji, I hate the original intention is not realized. Today, if you get Kang, Lujiang real secretary has also" ("Three Kingdoms - Wu Shu - Sun Zhaoyi biography").

Sun Ce was ordered to attack, take Lujiang. Yuan Shu actually went back on his word and appointed his old subordinate Liu Xun as the governor of Lujiang. The first time I saw him, I was disappointed. Previously, Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty sent Liu Cao to be the assassin of Yangzhou, which used to be ruled by Shouchun, which was occupied by Yuan Shu, so Liu Cao crossed the Yangtze River southward with the assistance of Sun Ce's uncle, Wu Jing, and his cousin, Sun Ben, and set up a state capital in Qu'a. This time, Sun Ce attacked Lujiang, which was the capital of Yangzhou, but it was not the capital of Yangzhou. This time, when Sun Ce attacked Lujiang, Liu Cao was worried because he knew that Wu Jing and Sun Ben were appointed by Yuan Shu, and he was worried that they would join hands with Yuan Shu and Sun Ce to annex himself, so he forced them to drive them out by force, and Wu Jing and Sun Ben had to retreat to Lixiang (present-day Hexian County, Anhui Province). Liu Cao sent Fan Neng and Yu Mo to be stationed in Hengjiang County, and had Zhang Ying stationed in Dangli Kou to fight against Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu, on the other hand, appointed his old subordinate Hui-Qu as the assassin of Yangzhou, and Wu Jing as the governor of the army, and together with Sun Ben, they led the troops to attack Zhang Ying. The two sides confronted each other for a long time, and there was no result.

Zhu Zhi, the captain of Danyang, used to be Sun Jian's lieutenant, and when he realized that Yuan Shu's political virtue was not established, he advised Sun Ce to take advantage of the opportunity to collect Jiangdong. So Sun Ce went to see Yuan Shu. Sun Ce said to Yuan Shu, "My family has been kind to the people of Jiangdong in the old days, so I would like to lead my troops to help my uncle to conquer Hengjiang. After Hengjiang is conquered, I can still recruit soldiers in the area, about 30,000 men. At that time, I will then lead them to help you pacify the world and seek a great cause." Yuan Shu knew that Sun Ce was dissatisfied with himself, but he thought that Sun Ce might not be able to do much when Liu Careless occupied Qu'a and Wang Lang occupied Huiji, so he agreed to his request and sent a petition to the court to appoint Sun Ce as the Folding School Captain. Sun Ce then led his father's old army and hundreds of his disciples to the east.

Along the way, people kept coming to join him, and Sun Ce's team kept expanding, and by the time he got to Liyang, it had reached 5,000 to 6,000 people. At that time, Zhou Yu's uncle Zhou Shang was the governor of Danyang. Zhou Yu brought his troops to welcome Sun Ce and sponsored his army food. Sun Ce was overjoyed and said to Zhou Yu, "With your support, the great thing will surely succeed." So, Sun Ce immediately led his troops across the river (see Sun Ce's Battle of Ping Jiangdong) and attacked Hengjiang and Dangli, which were conquered one after another, and Fan Neng and Zhang Ying were defeated. Then, Sun Ce successive attacks, "all broken, no one dares to be its front, and the military order is clean, the people pregnant" ("Three Kingdoms Zhi-Wu Shu-Sun Zhaibei biography").

Sun Ce attacked Liu Cao's Niuzhu camp and captured all the food and weapons in the warehouse.

At that time, Xue Li, the prime minister of Pengcheng, and Bao Rong, the prime minister of Xiapi, both attached themselves to Liu Cao and worshipped him as their allies; Xue Li occupied the city of Moling, and Bao Rong was stationed in the south of the county. Sun Ce first attacked Bao Rong and killed more than 50,000 people. Bao Rong was so scared that he closed the gate of his camp and did not dare to move. Sun Ce then attacked Xue Li, who broke through the siege and fled. At that time, Fan Neng and Yu Mo gathered soldiers to seize Niu Zhu. Sun Ce immediately returned to his army, defeated them, and captured more than ten thousand men. Then he re-attacked Bao Rong: during the battle, Sun Ce was hit by an arrow in his leg and could not ride a horse, so his men carried him back to the camp to heal his wound. Someone said to Bao Rong, "Sun Lang was killed by an arrow!" At that time, Sun Ce was young, although he had an official title, people called him "Sun Lang". When he heard the news of Sun Ce's death, he was overjoyed and sent his generals to fight against Sun Ce's troops. Sun Ce first sent a few hundred soldiers to challenge and lure the enemy, while setting up an ambush at the back. When the enemy attacked, Sun Ce's troops pretended to be defeated and lured the enemy into the encirclement, then with a signal, the ambushers rose up and beheaded more than 1,000 enemies. Sun Ce took advantage of the victory and attacked Bao Rong's camp, and ordered his generals to shout loudly, "How is Sun Lang?" The sound shook the enemy camp, shaking the ground and the mountains, scaring many enemy soldiers to run away in the night. Board rong see Sun Ce is still there, more and more vigilant and careful, deep ditch and high barriers, tightly guarded.

Sun Ce saw that the board rong negative risk defenses, a moment difficult to attack, then led the troops southward, first in the Meiling (now Nanling County, Anhui Province) to defeat Liu Carefree, and then turned the troops to capture the lake (now Jiangning County, Jiangsu Province, South Lake ripe town), Jiang multiply (now Jurong County, Jiangsu Province, north). Then, he reorganized his troops and went to Qu'a to attack Liu Cao.

Liu Cao fought with Sun Ce, defeated, fled to Dantu (present-day Zhenjiang City, Jiangsu Province), Sun Ce into the basis of Qu'a (see the Battle of Qu'a), when the second year of Xingping.

At first, the people heard the arrival of Sun Lang's soldiers, all fearful, soul dispersed, to avoid, the officials also tend to abandon the city, scurrying among the grass. Later, people gradually found that, Sun Ce army wherever they went, the soldiers strictly abide by the orders of the general, do not dare to capture the people, chickens, dogs, vegetables and ru, the autumn without offense. So, the people are very happy, scrambling to use cattle, wine to reward the troops.

Sun Ce, who had been working hard to give the soldiers, issued an announcement, telling the subordinate counties: "If the townspeople of Liu Cao and Bao Rong and their subordinates surrender, they will be asked nothing; if they are willing to join the army, they can join the army and exempt the whole family from taxes and corvée service; if they are not willing to join the army, they will not be forced to do so!"

After the announcement, the people who came to the subordinate by the four sides of the clouds set the wind surging, not a long time, it recruited more than 20,000 soldiers, more than 1,000 horses were collected. Yuan Shu was in Shouchun, knowing that Sun Ce had won a great victory, and he asked Sun Ce to be the exterminator. Sun Ce's victory was a great success and he was able to win the battle against the enemy.

Soon after, Liu Cao abandoned Dantu and fled to the west, and Sun Ce moved east to seize Wu County. In the eighth month of the first year of Jian'an (196), Sun Ce led his troops across the Zhejiang province and pushed his way to Huiji. Huiji Gongcao Yu翻 advised the governor Wang Lang to avoid Sun Ce for the time being, but Wang Lang refused to listen to him and sent his troops to stop Sun Ce at Gu Ling (west of Xiaoshan County, Zhejiang Province). Sun Ce launched several attacks from the water, but failed to work.

Sun Ce's uncle, Sun Jing, suggested that the sound of the east to attack the west, from the Chadu into the army, surprise, attacking their unpreparedness. Sun Ce followed the plan. So, at night, one side lit torches everywhere to confuse and restrain the enemy in the front, and the other side of the soldiers and horses quietly attacked from Chashu. Wang Lang out of surprise, greatly surprised, sent Zhou Xin led troops to meet the battle in a hurry, Sun Ce killed Zhou Xin, long drive straight people. Wang Lang was defeated and fled to Dongye (present-day Fuzhou, Fujian) by boat with Yu翻. Sun Ce's courageous pursuit, Wang Lang, Yu翻 surrendered.

Sun Ce pacified Jiangdong, appointed Wu Jing as the governor of Danyang, Zhu Zhi as the governor of Wu County, and himself concurrently as the governor of Huiji, and still Yu turned as the Cao Gong.

In the summer of the second year of Jian'an (197 AD), Cao Cao sent Cao Cao's advisor Wang Pu to carry an imperial edict from Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty to Sun Ce, appointing him Cavalry Lieutenant, inheriting his father's title as Marquis of Wucheng, and part-time Taishou of Houji, as well as ordering him to crusade against Yuan Shu together with Lü Bu, Chen Yu, and others. Sun Ce felt that his position as riding captain was a bit low as he was in command of the army, and wanted to get the title of general, in order to honor himself. He sent someone to Wang Pu to reveal his intention. Wang Pu immediately announced in the name of the emperor Sun Ce right on behalf of the Ming Han generals.

At that time, Chen Yu's army was stationed in Haixi (present-day Donghai, Jiangsu Province), and Sun Ce, as required by the edict, reorganized his soldiers and horses, and was going to meet with Lv Bu and Chen Yu, to plan military affairs and attend to the same situation. But when he led his army to Qiantang, the situation changed. It turned out that Chen Yu wanted to take the opportunity to seize Sun Ce's territory. He sent someone to secretly cross the river and took more than thirty seals and letters to the scattered bandits and marshals of all the dangerous counties, asking them to act as insiders, and then attack Sun Ce's counties as soon as his troops drove away. When Sun Ce found out about this plot, he was furious and sent Lu Fan and Xu Yi to attack Haixi with their troops, defeating Chen Yu and capturing more than 4,000 of his generals, wives and children***. Chen Yu fled to Yuan Shao.

In the third year of Jian'an (198 AD), Sun Ce sent Zhang Jie to contribute square objects to the Han court, and Cao Cao settled on this Sun Ce and made a connection with him, petitioning for permission to appoint him as a general of the rebellion, and making him a Marquis of Wu.

At this time, Yuan Shu appointed Zhou Yu as the head of Jiuzhao and Lu Su as the head of Dongxian, but they knew that Yuan Shu would not be able to achieve greatness, so they abandoned their posts and crossed the river to follow Sun Ce.

In December of the same year, because Sun Ce did not support Yuan Shu's claim to the throne, Yuan Shu enlisted the help of Zulang, who had fled to Anhui Province, and asked him to mobilize the mountainous Yue*** to fight against Sun Ce. Tai Shi Ci also occupied Jing County and called himself the governor of Danyang to stop Sun Ce's westward march. At that time, the east of Xuancheng had already belonged to Sun Ce, and only the west of Jingxian was not attached. Sun Ce had to pull out these two nails first in order to open up Yuzhang and conquer Huang Zu in the west. Therefore, he first attacked Lingyang (southeast of Qingyang County, Anhui Province) and captured Zulang, and then attacked Yongli (northwest of Jing County, Anhui Province) and captured Taishi Ci.

Soon after, Liu Cao died of illness in Yuzhang, and his men wanted to elect Hua Xin as their leader, but Hua Xin resigned. Sun Ce sent Tai Shi Ci to explore the news. When Tai Shi Ci returned, Sun Ce strengthened his determination to annex Yuzhang.

Jian'an four years (199 AD), Sun Ce is preparing to crusade with Cao Cao, Dong Cheng, Liu Zhang, Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, the army has been ready to go, Yuan Shu died of illness.

Yuan Shu's chief historian Yang Hong and general Lu Mian wanted to lead their troops to Sun Ce, but they were intercepted by Liu Xun, the governor of Lujiang, and all of them were captured. The first time I saw this, I was in the middle of a long journey, and it was a long time ago that I was in the middle of a long journey, and it was a long time ago that I was in the middle of a long journey, and it was a long time ago that I was in the middle of a long journey, and it was a long time ago that I was in the middle of a long journey, and it was a long time ago that I was in the middle of a long journey. Liu Xun's strength increased dramatically, but he could not keep up with the food and supplies. Liu Xun sent cousin Liu Kai to Yuzhang governor Hua Xin to borrow food, Hua Xin is also lack of food, had to send people led Liu Kai to Haihun (today's Jiangxi Fengxin County West), on the dazzling (today's Jiangxi Yongxiu County), to Liu Cao's old ministry of borrowing 30,000 dendrobiums. Liu Kai went for more than a month, only to borrow two thousand dendrobiums, so he reported Liu Xun, and let Liu Xun lead the troops to come to attack.

At that time, Liu Xun's army was too strong, Sun Ce wanted to take the opportunity to cut him off, and also wrote a letter to persuade Liu Xun to attack Haihun and Shangliu. In the letter, Sun Ce bent himself to the next person, said: "Shang Liao place is very rich, I hope that you can raise troops to crusade, I would like to send troops to be your foreign aid."

Liu Xun decided to attack Shang Diao. He quietly led his army through Pengze and came to Haihun place. The local guards were so determined that they left an empty city, and Liu Xun found nothing.

At that time, Sun Ce led the troops to the western expedition of Huang Zu, is walking to Shicheng (today's Anhui Guizhi County, West), heard that Liu Xun has arrived in Haihun, and immediately let Sun Ben, Sun auxiliary rate of men and horses stationed in Pengze, ready to stop Liu Xun, himself and Zhou Yu rate of 20,000 troops into the attack on Liu Xun's base camp of Anhui City, a one-off attack, captured more than 30,000 people. Then, he appointed Li Shu as the governor of Lujiang, and allocated him 3,000 men to keep the city of Anhui, and the rest of the people, all of them moved to the land of Wu.

Liu Xun was shocked by the news, starry night back to the army Pengze, Sun Ben, Sun Fu sent troops to intercept, Liu Xun defeated, fled to Liuji (now Hubei Echeng), to Huang Zu for help. Huang Zu sent his son Huang Shou to reinforce him with 5,000 sailors. Sun Ce attacked and Liu Xun fled to Cao Cao, and Huang Shou also fled. Sun Ce got more than 2,000 soldiers and more than 1,000 ships from Liu Xun. Thus, he took advantage of the victory to attack Huang Zu.

On December 8, Sun Ce advanced to Sha Xian (north of present-day Jiayu County, Hubei). Liu Biao sent his nephew Liu Hu and Han Xi, a native of Nanyang, to lead a spear team of 5,000 men to support Huang Zu. On the 11th, Sun Ce led Zhou Yu, Lu Meng, Cheng Pu, Sun Quan, Han Dang, Huang Gai and other generals to advance at the same time, and fought with the enemy, Huang Zu was almost wiped out, Han Xi was killed in battle, Huang Zu escaped and fled, the soldiers drowned up to ten thousand people, and Sun Ce captured 6,000 warships.

In a letter to the Han court, Sun Ce described the battle, saying: "(I) crossed the horse before the music array, and beat the drums, in order to align the war situation. The officials and soldiers were excited and enthusiastic. The heart is fine and the intention is fruitful, each competes with the life. Crossing the heavy moat, as fast as flying. Fire flying upwind, soldiers stirred smoke down, bows and crossbows were fired, streaming vectors rained." Can be described as thrilling.

Sun Ce, a drum, east into the Yuzhang, stationed in Jiaoqiu (north of Jiangxi Xinjian County), Yu turned to say: "Huaxin famous, but never my opponent. If you do not surrender early, in the future, when the golden drums vibrate, the war situation is open, harm invasion, inevitable. You go into the city first, and tell him what I mean." Yu turned orders into the city, see Hua Xin, explain the advantages and disadvantages, Hua Xin raised the city to surrender.

Sun Ce set up Luling County from Yuzhang County, appointed Sun Ben as the governor of Yuzhang, Sun Fu as the governor of Luling, and left Zhou Yu to guard Bachu.

Sun Ce also successively broke Zou Lun, Qian Tong, Wang Sheng, Yan Baihu and other departments, so the territory was pacified.

Cao Cao heard Sun Ce pacified Jiangnan, sighed and said: "The mad dog is difficult to compete with the front also!" So, he promised the daughter of his younger brother Cao Ren to Sun Kuang, Sun Ce's younger brother, and had his son Cao Chang marry Sun Ben's daughter. He also enlisted Sun Quan and Sun Yiyi with a gift, and ordered Yan Xiang, the assassin of Yangzhou, to promote Sun Quan as a maojie.

But Sun Ce's character also has a tough, stubborn side, which in turn is very much like his father, Sun Jian, there are flaws, sometimes dealing with affairs appear rash, impatient, and once launched temper, it is reckless, stubborn and tenacious, and can not listen to different opinions.

According to the "Three Kingdoms" note cited "Huiji record" records: Huiji County, Wei Teng, the word Zhou Lin, is a blunt character, tough people, do adhere to the principle, will never act on the will of the chief. Once, Wei Teng went against Sun Ce's wishes and angered Sun Ce. Sun Ce was furious and determined to kill Wei Teng. When his subordinates saw Sun Ce's anger, they were so afraid that they did not dare to persuade him and could not think of any good way to save Wei Teng. When Mrs. Wu found out, she stood at the edge of the well and wanted to jump to her death. The attendants reported to Sun Ce, who rushed to visit his mother. Mrs. Wu leaned on the edge of the well and said to her son: "You have just established a foothold in Jiangnan, it is not easy to create a new situation, many matters are still in the process of creation, the foundation is not yet solid. The most important thing to do is to pay respect to the wise and virtuous, give up their faults and recognize their merits, so that people will come to you. Wei Teng Gongcao has obeyed the law and done his duty. If you kill him today, then people will turn their backs on you tomorrow. I can't bear to see you in great trouble, so I'd better throw myself into the well first to save my heart." Sun Ce was shocked to hear his mother's words, and immediately realized his mother's good intentions and released Wei Teng immediately.

The Wei family is one of the most famous families in Huiji County, and they have a lot of influence in Huiji County and even in the Jiangdong area. Sun Ce has just been based in Jiangdong, at the time of the foundations of the business, the foundation is not yet solid, the power has not yet been strengthened, Huiji County and some of the great clans in Jiangdong, some are still in the state of hostile recalcitrance, not completely submissive; some are still in the hovering wait and see. If Sun wants to get a foothold in Jiangdong, handling the relationship with them is a permanent plan. For Wei Teng's disposition, Sun Ce killed him in a fit of rage, in that era of turmoil, it is not a big deal, but its impact will be great, it will affect some of the major clans to submit to go on, and even provoke more determined resistance. Mrs. Sun was able to recognize the seriousness of the situation and its negative impact, and was able to show up in time to preach and explain to Wei Teng, which had a significant impact on stabilizing the people's hearts in Jiangdong.

P.S.: Mrs. Wu dreamed of the sun and moon, and the birth of Sun Ce Sun Quan's story

According to "So Shen Ji"

Sun Jian, Mrs. Wu, pregnant and dreaming of the moon into its bosom, and then gave birth to Ce. And power in pregnancy, and dreamed of the day into their arms, to tell Jian said: "The former gestation, dreaming of the month into my arms, and now also dreaming of the day into my arms, why?" Jian said, "The sun and the moon are the essence of yin and yang, and the image of the most precious, and my children and grandchildren will prosper."

Zhuge Liang (July 23, 181 ~ August 28, 234), the word Kong Ming, the number of the Wolong (also known as the Folong), Han nationality, Langya Yangdu (present-day Yinan County, Linyi City, Shandong Province), the prime minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms period of the outstanding politicians, diplomats, inventors, militarists. When he was alive, he was named Marquis of Wuxiang and posthumously named Marquis of Zhongwu. The later Eastern Jin Dynasty regime, in order to honor Zhuge Liang's military prowess, posthumously named him King Wuxing.

There are too many Zhuge Liangs, so I won't post them one by one

Xiao Qiao was a woman in the Three Kingdoms period of China at the end of the Han Dynasty, a native of Wanxian County in Lujiang (present-day Qianshan, Anhui Province), the second daughter of Qiao Gong, and the wife of Zhou Yu, a general of the Eastern Wu Dynasty. Legend has it that she and her sister, Da Qiao, were both extremely beautiful women. She was also featured in China's classic novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

In the fourth year of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Sun Ce received 3,000 soldiers from Yuan Shu, and returned to Jiangdong to restore his family business, and with the support of his friend Zhou Yu, he conquered the city of Anhui. On the eastern outskirts of Anhui City, surrounded by streams and covered by pines and bamboo, there was a village, Qiao Apartment, which was called the former residence of Qiao Gong by later generations. Qiao Gong has two daughters of great color, and intelligent, known far and wide. The two daughters were known far and wide for their beauty and intelligence, and they were invited to send someone to hire them as a courtesy, and they were invited to send in a pair of sisters with Duke Qiao's permission. Thus, there is Sun Ce Na Da Qiao, Zhou Yu married Xiao Qiao rhyme.

In the backyard of Qiao Gong's former residence, there is an ancient well with clear and deep water. Legend has it that the two Qiao sisters often dress up here, which can be described as "trimming the eyebrows to write the spring mountains, pine and bamboo xiao pei huan". Every time the makeup, they will be the residual fat leftover powder discarded in the well, over the years, the well water rose rouge color, water flavor also has rouge fragrance. So, this well will have the elegant name of rouge well. There is a poem that says: "Qiao Gong two women show color bell, autumn water and open hibiscus."

From the two Qiao, a pair of sisters, married to two of the world's heroes, one is a strong strategy, the mighty Sun Lang Jiangdong, a suave, literary and military Zhou Lang, can be said to be a perfect marriage. Lang talented women, harmonized into a couple, of course, two love cozy, love lingering. However, two Qiao is really very happy? In fact, the life of Da Qiao is very bitter. Sun Ce married Da Qiao that year was twenty-four years old, but unfortunately, heaven is jealous of good luck, two years later, just when Cao Cao and Yuan Shao war Guandu, Sun Ce was preparing to attack Xuchang to welcome Emperor Xian, from Cao Cao's hands to take over the "hostage of the emperor to command the vassals," the authority of the Sun Ce was Xu Gong's family assassination, died at the age of only twenty-six. Da Qiao and Sun Ce had only been married for two years. At that time, Da Qiao was at most in her early twenties, young and widowed, with only her son Sun Shao in infancy by her side, so it was really very miserable! Since then, she has only crowing marks, night lonely bed, hard work, raising the orphan. The years are long, the red face dark fade, a generation of beautiful people, I do not know when to fade! Xiao Qiao's situation is better than her sister, she and Zhou Yu, the qin and sepulchral harmony, love together for twelve years. Zhou Yu was a handsome man, skilled in music, and there is still a folk proverb that says, "If there is a mistake in the song, Zhou Lang will take care of it". Xiao Qiao and Zhou Yu were y in love and lived together, accompanying the army in the eastern and western battles, and taking part in the historically famous Battle of Red Cliff. Two years after the battle, "Yu returned to Jiangling, for the traveling clothes, and the road in Bachiu, sick and died at the age of thirty-six". In these twelve years, Zhou Yu, as the general in charge of the troops of the Eastern Wu, defeated Huang Zu in Jiangxia and Cao Cao in Red Cliff, and was highly decorated and famous throughout the world. Unfortunately, he did not live forever, and died of illness in Bachiu when he was preparing to attack Yizhou at the age of thirty-six. At this time, Xiao Qiao was only about thirty years old, and it is understandable that she lost her lover at first. The beauty of life is thin, two Qiao in the picturesque Jiangnan, living a lonely life. Wu Huangwu two years Xiao Qiao died at the age of forty-seven (the age of controversy, one said that its tomb for Zhou Yu fourteen years). A Ming Dynasty poet once said, "Two mournful graves are located in the city outline, one for Zhou Lang and one for Xiao Qiao." Xiao Qiao's tomb was sealed without a table, and the grave was built on flat ground with Han bricks. By 1914, Yueyang Xiao Qiao tomb on the tomb hut. Now there are still engraved with the official script "Xiao Qiao tomb hut" stone monument.

How beautiful is Xiao Qiao? The Three Kingdoms did not write, Du Mu did not write, Luo Guanzhong did not write, this beauty is too vague. However, for thousands of years, this "fuzzy beauty" has been moving. Shanghai museum collection of the qing dynasty wu zhi fán bamboo carving "two qiao and read the picture pen holder", wang shixiang "bamboo carving appreciation" book has photos and topography, said the carving is "two women high bun, a hold fan sitting on the couch, a sitting stool, finger a few scrolls, seems to be in the conversation. On the couch, there is an ancient statue with a branch of peony, and there are cages, baskets, kilns, inkstones, water pots, seal boxes, and other literary utensils. On the back of the brushpot is engraved a seven-character poem in Yangwen: "Bird's nest is a good gift for Jiangdong, and the talented people in the car pay homage to it. There were even two handsome eyes in the golden chamber, and all of them said that Zijian was a hero." As a beautiful woman, Jiangdong Qiao naturally became the object of literature and art. In ancient times, the beauty of women depended on the rendering of ink and brush strokes, which may not be reliable. Gaoqi's "Over Two Qiao's House" of the Ming Dynasty says: "Sun Lang's martial arts strategy, Zhou Lang's wisdom, and the meeting will end in the righteousness of the ruler and the minister. The strange posture of the joint jade annoyed Jiangdong, all with the Qiao family as a good son-in-law. Although Mr. Qiao is in the middle of displacement, the lintel is overflowing with two dragons. Big Qiao is graceful and little Qiao is charming, and the autumn water is full of hibiscus. Though he is married to a woman, he is still aware of the festival, and he is happy with his poetry and books. Do not learn to share the fragrance of song and dance children, copper platform night crying Xiling moon." Cao Cao's life failed to take Jiangdong, otherwise two Qiao may have spent the rest of his life in the bronze bird platform.

The Talents

In the Han Dynasty, Qiao and Qiao were originally two surnames. Xiao Qiao was surnamed Qiao instead of Qiao, and in later times the surname Qiao was simplified to Qiao. In Jin-Chen Shou's Three Kingdoms Zhi-Wu Shu IX-Zhou Yu Biography, the record of Xiao Qiao is extremely brief. Only in Jian'an three years (198 years), there is "(Sun) Ce wants to take Jingzhou, with Yu as the center guard, leading the Jiangxia governor, from the attack on Wan (Western Han Dynasty county, that is, Qianshan County, Meicheng Town), pulled out. At the time of the bridge, two women, both national color. Ce since the big bridge, Yu Na Xiaoqiao." Here "Xiaoqiao" means "Xiao Qiao". Zhou Yu took Xiao Qiao in the third year of Jian'an (198), when Yu was twenty-four years old. Yu was twenty-four years old when he died at the age of thirty-six, which was the fourteenth year of Jian'an (209). By this reckoning, Yu and Xiao Qiao lived together for only twelve years. Yu and Xiao Qiao had two sons and a daughter. "The female was married to Prince Deng (Sun Quan's eldest son). The male was Princess Zhuan Shang (married to Sun Quan's daughter), a riding lieutenant, with Yu's style, who died early. Zhuan brother Yin, initially worship Xingye lieutenant, wife to the Zong female, authorized troops of one thousand people, tun public security." With the above simple record, it seems difficult for the later generations to spread the story of Yu and Qiao as a rumor in the folklore. Of course, there will not be the appearance of Xiao Qiao's multiple tombs later.

The circulation of the story of Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao, in addition to their own factors, but also with Ming Luo Guanzhong in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, around the story of the Copper Sparrow Terrace of the two elaborate arrangements and rendering. The thirty-fourth episode of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" describes how Cao Cao, after pacifying Liaodong, was in a good mood and wanted to build the Bronze Sparrow Terrace to entertain himself in his old age. Cao Zhi, the youngest son, advises, "If you build a tier of platforms, you must erect three." The center is named Copper Sparrow, the left is Jade Dragon, the right is Golden Phoenix. "And make two flying bridges across the sky, it is spectacular." Cao was delighted, and left Cao Zhi and Cao Pi to build a platform in Yecheng County. This is the origin of the construction of the platform, and has nothing to do with Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao. In the 42nd chapter, after Cao Cao won Jingzhou, he wanted to lead a million troops southward, and asked Sun Quan to "****capture" Liu Bei. At a time when Sun-Wu main war, main and, boisterous, difficult to advocate. Forty-third narrative: Lu Su and Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang's conspiracy, Kong Ming would like to go to Chaisang with Lu Su (the former city of Jiangxi Jiujiang County, southwest of twenty miles) to see Sun Quan in person, in order to show the advantages and disadvantages of firm Sun Quan joint resistance to Cao.

When the book reaches the 44th episode, Zhou Yu and Xiao Qiao have contact with the Bronze Sparrow Terrace: at this time, Zhou Yu, who was originally training sailors at Poyang Lake, rushed back to Chaisang by night and urgently made an appointment to see Kong Ming that night. Zhou Yu, like Sun Quan before him, was determined to fight against Cao, but was wary of uniting with Liu Bei. At first, Yu tried not to reveal his intention to fight against Cao in order to test Kong Ming, but Kong Ming took the opportunity to say that Cao was too powerful to resist, and used the method of provocation to persuade Yu to surrender to Cao, saying: "I have a plan: I don't need to take a goat and bring a bottle of wine, and I don't need to offer a seal to Liu Bei; and I don't need to cross the river in person, but I only need to send an envoy, and I need to send two people in a flatboat to the river. Fuck a get these two people, millions of people, all unarmored roll flag and retreat." Kong Ming pretended not to know the big and small Qiao for Sun Ce, Zhou Yu's wife, then said: "Liang live in Longzhong, that is, I heard that the play in the Zhanghe River to build a new one, called the copper sparrow, extremely magnificent; wide selection of the world's beautiful women, in order to real which. Fuck this colorful people, long heard of Jiangdong Qiao Gong has two women, long said big Qiao, second said small Qiao, has the face of the fish and geese, the appearance of the closed moon and shy flowers. Fuck had sworn that: I wish to sweep the four seas, to become the emperor; a wish to Jiangdong two Qiao, placed in the Bronze Sparrow Terrace, in order to enjoy the old age, although the death of no hate carry on. Today, although leading a million people, the tiger's eye on Jiangnan, in fact, for this two women also." Zhou Yu do not believe Kong Ming's words, asked: "Fuck want to get two Qiao, what evidence?" Kong Ming also said, fuck had ordered his son Cao Zhi made the "Copper Bird Terrace Fugue", "the meaning of the fugue, only that his family together as the son of heaven, vowed to take two Qiao." In order to prove that what Kong Ming said is true, Yu again asked: "This Fu Gong can remember?" Kong Ming more and more to show his talent, in front of Zhou Yu, Lu Su face recite the Fu, cleverly add oil and vinegar, intended to provoke Zhou Yu. One of the lines reads: "Standing on the left and right platforms, there are jade dragons and golden phoenixes. Take the two Qiao in the southeast Ruoxi, and be happy to be with **** in the morning and in the evening." Recorded in the Acts of Kong Ming recited the "Bronze Sparrow Terrace Fugue" and Cao Zhi's original "Dengtai Fugue" (i.e., the Acts of the "Bronze Sparrow Terrace Fugue") is a mixture of authenticity and falsehood. The bridge is the surname of Xiao Qiao, and the content added to Kong Ming's recitation of the fugue explicitly refers to the two bridges connecting the Jade Dragon and the Golden Phoenix, referring to the two Qiao women, the eldest and the youngest. Zhou Yu heard, "burst of anger, away from the seat pointing to the north and cursed that: 'the old thief deceived me too much! Since then, the determination of Sun and Liu to unite against Cao.

The two Qiao never appeared in the "Acts". Even through the Bronze Sparrow Tower, Xiao Qiao in the book is only false. But Xiao Qiao's national beauty and its position in the hearts of Zhou Yu and Cao Cao, but was shown. The Battle of Red Cliff was fought over Xiao Qiao, which is a big joke made by Kong Ming in the book! This cannot but be said to be Luo Guanzhong's mastery of technique in the compilation of the Shuiyi. It should be said that the book on Zhou Yu, Xiao Qiao, as well as Kong Ming, Cao Cao, through the incident of the Bronze Sparrow Terrace and the development of the colorful and highly legendary description, not only explains the Yu, Qiao love, but also to the later generations of folk about the marriage between the two good story of the circulation of content. This is really one of the reasons why Xiao Qiao can have multiple graves added in later generations.

Zhou Yu married Xiao Qiao, in the & lt; Romance of the Three Kingdoms & gt; and did not record. But, there are some words and phrases can show the relationship between the two. Twenty-nine small king of the rage beheading Yu Ji Bieye child sitting lead Jiangdong: (Sun Ce) and called his wife, Mrs. Qiao said: "I am unfortunate to be separated from you in the middle of the day, you have to filial piety and support your aunt. Sooner or later, your sister into see, you can ask it to transfer to Zhou Lang, dedicated to assist my brother, Hugh I weekday acquaintance of the elegant." Forty-fourth Kong Ming with wisdom to stimulate Zhou Yu Sun Quan decided to break Cao Cao: Yu said: "Gong do not know: big Qiao is the Sun Bo Fu General's mistress, small Qiao is Yu's wife."

In addition, in the <Three Kingdoms magazine>, there is Zhou Yu married Xiao Qiao records, in the <Zhou Yu biography> in. The original text is: Hai Zhi, Ce wanted to take Jingzhou, Yu as the center guard, leading Jiangxia Taishou, from the attack on Wan, pulled out. At that time to get bridge Gong two women, both national color. Ce from the big bridge, Yu Na Xiaoqiao. Ce from the graceful play Yu said: "Although the bridge public two women displaced (for the meaning of the appearance of renewed), to get my two son-in-law, but also enough to be happy."
