Huang Zhong (145——220) was born in Nanyang, Henan.
Huang Zhong was 40 years old when the Yellow turban insurrectionary (184) took place. Huang Zhong may play for Liu Biao, because Dong Zhuo's subordinates Li Jie and Guo Huai invaded Chang 'an in 192, and Huang Zhong was appointed as a corps commander.
