The death of Zhou Yu
Hua Tuo, a famous miracle doctor in Chinese history. He has created the first set of health gymnastics "Five Poultry Play" and the first anesthetic formula "Ma Boiling San" in history
Hua Tuo said to Cao Cao: "Your head wind disease cannot be cured in a short time. But not long ago, I received a letter from home saying that my wife was sick, and I begged to go home to take care of my wife temporarily." Cao Cao sent people to urge him several times, but Hua Tuo never returned. In the end, Cao Cao was so angry that he directly ordered someone to visit the patient: if Hua Tuo's wife was really sick, he would give Xiaodou 40 Hu and give him a grace time to return; If Hua Tuo's wife is not sick, Hua Tuo will be directly arrested and put to death! Before Hua Tuo died, he wanted to give his posthumous work "The Book of Green Bags" to the prison officials for future generations, but the prison officials did not dare to accept it. Hua Tuo sighed and burned the "Green Capsule Book".
In March 209, Cao Cao led his army to Peiguo County to retrain the navy.
Sun Quan besieged Hefei for several days, and wanted to lead a light cavalry to break through the enemy. was stopped by Zhang Hong. Cao Cao sent Zhang Xi to lead his troops to rescue Hefei, but he did not arrive for a long time. Yangzhou Don't drive Jiang Ji to forge Zhang Xi's letter, saying that he had led 40,000 foot cavalry to Lujiang County, and asked the messenger to be deliberately captured by Sun Quan. Sun Quan believed it and ordered the withdrawal of troops.
In July, Cao Cao led the water army from the vortex into the Huai, out of the fertilizer water, came to Hefei, dug Shaobei, and carried out Tuntian. In December, he returned to Qian County.
This year, Chen Lan, Mei Cheng and others occupied Lujiang County, Liuer County rebelled, Zhang Liao was ordered by Cao Cao to behead them, and then led more than 7,000 people to garrison Hefei with Le Jin and Li Dian.
This year, Cao Ren finally couldn't stop Zhou Yu's onslaught and abandoned the city to the north. Sun Quan named Zhou Yu as the Taishou of Nanjun, Cheng Pu as the Taishou of Jiangxia, Lü Fan as the Taishou of Peng Ze, and Lü Meng as the commander of Xunyang County of Lujiang County.
This year, Liu Qi died of illness. Liu Bei played Sun Quan as the general of the chariot and the pastor of Xuzhou. Sun Quan praised Liu Bei as the pastor of Jingzhou, and ordered Zhou Yu to cede the land on the south bank to Liu Bei. Liu Bei established a base in Youkou and renamed it Gong'an (the 51st chapter of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" writes that Nanjun was captured by Zhao Yun, and said that this is "Kong Ming and Zhou Yu")
This year, in order to consolidate the Sun-Liu alliance, Sun Quan took the initiative to marry his sister to Liu Bei (the 54th-55th chapter of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" wrote that this matter was set up by Zhou Yu as a matter of "Kong Ming's two qi Zhou Yu"), and Cao Cao secretly sent the debater Jiang Gan to lobby Zhou Yu in order to break up the Sun-Liu alliance. But Zhou Yu is elegant and elegant, not moved by words, and answers with great righteousness and awe-inspiring: "The husband is in the world, the master of the confidant, the righteousness of the monarch and the minister outside, and the grace of the flesh and blood inside." Words and deeds are followed, and blessings and misfortunes are shared. If Su Qin and Zhang Yi are resurrected, they can't change their intentions" (when the 45th chapter of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" moved this matter to the Battle of Chibi, it was called "The Heroes will meet Jiang Ganzhong")
In the spring of 210, Cao Cao accepted Heqia's suggestion and issued the first order of the "Three Orders for Seeking Talents".
In winter, Cao Cao ordered the construction of three platforms in Yecheng: the middle is the Tongque Terrace, the left is the Jade Dragon Terrace, and the right is the Jinfeng Terrace (so the 44th episode of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" "Kong Zhizhi provokes Zhou Yu" is all fiction. Because before the Battle of Chibi, Tongque Tai was not built, and Cao Zhi did not write "Tongque Tai Fu", how could Zhuge Liang use this to provoke Zhou Yu)
In December, Cao Cao issued the "Order to Let the County Know Its Own Aspirations", which clearly stated that he would not seek fame and deal with real disasters. They will not hand over the power in their hands so as not to be victimized. However, the emperor recently gave himself a total of 30,000 households in 4 counties, which is really unnecessary. The so-called "rivers and lakes are not quiet, and they cannot give way." As for the Yi soil, it can be resigned, "so I am willing to give up a total of 20,000 households in Yangxia, Zhe, and Ku counties, and only enjoy the food of 10,000 households in Wuping County."
Because more and more of Liu Biao's subordinates attached to Liu Bei, Liu Bei felt that the territory that Zhou Yu 'borrowed' last year was too small to accommodate the public. So he took the opportunity of the newlywed to go to Jingkou in Wujun to see Sun Quan in person, and asked to 'borrow' the entire territory of Jingzhou to himself. After Zhou Yu and Lu Fan learned about this, they both wrote to persuade Sun Quan to take this opportunity to put Liu Bei under house arrest in Wu. However, Sun Quan did not adopt it out of consideration for the two alliances to resist Cao. However, the matter of borrowing land has not been agreed to for the time being. Liu Bei returned to the public security.
Zhou Yu couldn't help but be anxious when he heard the news of Liu Bei's return, and he also ran to Jingkou to see Sun Quan and said, "Cao Cao's Chibi is newly defeated, don't worry about it for the time being." Now I would like to send troops with your cousin, Sun Yu, the general of Fenwei, to destroy Liu Zhang in Yizhou and Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, and then let Sun Yu stay there and join forces with Ma Chao in Guanzhong, while I will come back and capture Xiangyang again, so that I can fight Cao Cao."
Sun Quan approved Zhou Yu's plan on the spot. On the one hand, he sent someone to contact Liu Bei, and on the other hand, he asked Zhou Yu to go back to Jiangling to prepare, but Zhou Yu suddenly fell seriously ill on the way, casting a shadow on this plan in the womb. And for this plan, Liu Bei was also extremely nervous. Because according to Zhuge Liang's "Longzhong Pair", Yizhou is the most important piece of territory in the world in the future for Liu Bei, how can it be occupied by Eastern Wu?
Yin Guan, the chief secretary of Jingzhou, said to Liu Bei, "We can let the Wu army attack Shudi, but we must say to Sun Quan: We have just pacified the counties of Jingzhou, and the people's hearts are undecided, so we can't send troops to help at that time." In this way, Sun Quan was afraid that we would cut off his way back, and he would not dare to cross us to fight Liu Zhang" Liu Bei acted according to the plan, which aroused Sun Quan's anger, and he refused to give up, and ordered Sun Yu to lead the naval army into Xiakou, and put on a posture of not hesitating to fight.
Liu Bei also immediately sent troops to block Sun Yu's way: "I have written to your lord, persuading him to take another road if he wants to capture Shu. If you have to go from my side, Liu Bei will go into the mountains to not lose his trust in the world" After saying this, Liu Bei immediately made corresponding arrangements: Guan Yutun Jiangling, Zhang Feitun Zigui, Zhuge Liang according to Nanjun, Liu Bei stationed in Xiaoling, almost blocked all the passages for the Wu army to enter Shu. Sun Quan had no choice but to recall Sun Yu.
Zhou Yu, who was recuperating in Baqiu on the border of Changsha County and Nan County, was also angry to death after learning the news. He was 36 years old. Before his death, the above table recommended Lu Su to succeed him. Sun Quan was heartbroken and personally went to Wuhu County, Danyang County to greet the funeral. Zhou Yu has two sons and one daughter. The daughter married Sun Deng, the eldest son of Sun Quan. The eldest son, Zhou Xun, married the daughter of Sun Quan and served as a lieutenant. The second son, Zhou Yin, married the daughter of the Sun clan and served as the captain of Xingye.
According to Zhou Yu's last wishes, Sun Quan named Lu Su as the captain of Fenwu and succeeded Zhou Yu's troops. Feng Chengpu is the Taishou of Nanjun.
After the Battle of Chibi, Lu Su returned first. At that time, Sun Quan led the generals out of the city to greet him. Lu Su bowed to Sun Quan, and Sun Quan also sat down and replied, "Zijing (Lu Su Zijing) works hard." Lone went out of the city to greet Qing today, Qing thought that Xianyang was no" I didn't expect Lu Su to answer directly, "yet" Everyone was stunned. Lu Su raised his whip and said, "May you add Wei Dejia to the four seas, Kyushu will become the emperor, and then use the soft wheel of the car to meet Lu Su, and then I will feel prominent" Sun Quan stroked his palms and laughed.
After Lu Su succeeded Zhou Yu, he strongly persuaded Sun Quan to lend all the land of Jingzhou to Liu Bei in order to reject Cao Cao. Sun Quan eventually followed Lu Su's advice. It was ordered to divide Yuzhang into Fanyang County and Changsha into Hanchang County. Cheng Pu was appointed as Jiangxia Taishou. Lu Su was the Taishou of Hanchang and was stationed in Lukou.
When the news of Sun Quan's loan of Jingzhou to Liu Bei reached Cao Cao's ears, Cao Cao was writing a book at that time. Frightened, he put pen to the ground, "Liu Bei, the dragon among people, has never tasted water in his life." Now Jingzhou is a dragon into the sea. Lonely and unmoved"
When Lu Su went to Lukou to take up his post, he passed through Xunyang County, Lujiang County, and visited Lu Meng, who would take over his post in the future. When he was young, Lu Meng was a good martial artist and did not read scriptures. was forced by Sun Quan to read, "You said that there are many things in the army, can you have more than me, Wu Hou?" I read a lot and I often feel that it is very beneficial. You have also made a county order now, so you have to read some books" Lu Meng, who read the book, surprised Lu Sudu, "Your current talent is not the Wuxia Ameng of the past" Lu Mengdao "Shibei three days, he should be impressed. Big brother, you are too underestimated," Lu Su laughed, went to worship Lu Meng's mother, and said goodbye to Lu Meng.
This year, Pang Tong defected to Liu Bei's account, but Liu Bei didn't realize the talent of this 'Feng Xiao' at first, and only appointed Pang Tong as the county magistrate of Leiyang County, Guiyang County. Pang Tong was disappointed, so he ignored everything in the county order and was dismissed. Later, after being recommended by Lu Su and Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei personally met with Pang Tong, and only then did he discover the talent of the 'phoenix', so he appointed Pang Tong as the governor of the country, and served as the general of the military division with Zhuge Liang.
During Dong Zhuo's rebellion, Jiaozhou assassin Shi Zhu Fu was killed by thieves, and Jiaozhou was in turmoil. In 200, Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty appointed Zhang Jin as the assassin of Jiaozhou. But Zhang Jin was a good ghost, and in 205 he was killed by the general Ou Jing. After that, Liu Biao sent Lai Gong to succeed Jiaozhou Assassin without the permission of the imperial court. and then sent Wu Ju to replace the dead Shi Huang as the Taishou of Cangwu. But Wu Ju and Lai Gong were at odds, and Wu Ju raised troops to drive Lai Gong back to his hometown of Lingling County. Jiaozhou was in turmoil for many years, and the imperial court finally realized that this place still needed to be managed by locals, and at the same time, Cao Cao would not let Liu Biao's people control Jiaozhou, so a Cangwu man named Shixie walked into Cao Cao's field of vision.
Shi Xie served as the Jiaozhi Taishou very early. Taking advantage of the chaos in Jiaozhou, Shixie also let his three younger brothers serve as county guards: Hepu Taishou Shiyi and Jiuzhen Taishou? , Nanhai Taishou Shiwu. At once, he took control of 4 of the 7 counties in Jiaozhou. The history is called "a state, partial to thousands of miles, and the prestige is supreme." The entry and exit guards were very prosperous, and the barbarians were subdued" so Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty specially issued a seal book, appointing Shi Xie as the general of Suinan Zhonglang, Jiaozhi Taishou, and the governor of the seven counties.
But this year, Sun Quan appointed Fanyang Taishou Buqi as the assassin of Jiaozhou, and the Shixie brothers immediately expressed their willingness to obey Buqi's leadership. Cangwu guarded Wu Ju too much and violated the inside, and was lured and beheaded by Buqi. Sun Quan canonized Shi Xie as the general of Zuo, and Shi Xie also sent his son Shi Xi to Wu to hostage. In this way, Sun Quan successfully opened up a state on the foundation of Yangzhou laid by his brother Sun Ce: Jiaozhou.
On January 11, 211, in response to Cao Cao's "Decree on the Freedom of the County from Ming" at the end of last year, Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty issued an edict to entitle Cao Cao's three sons: Cao Zhi as the Marquis of Pingyuan, Cao Ju as the Marquis of Fanyang, and Cao Lin as the Marquis of Raoyang, with 5,000 households each, which was 5,000 fewer than the 20,000 households conceded by Cao Cao (in the same year, Cao Yu, Marquis of Duxiang, and Cao Xuan, Marquis of Xixiang)
In January, Liu Xie appointed Cao Cao's son, Cao Pi, as the general of the five officials, who could set up official subordinates as the deputy of Prime Minister Cao Cao.
In January, Gao Yao rebelled in Daling County, Taiyuan County, and Cao Cao sent Xiahou Yuan and Xu Huang to pacify him.
In March, Cao Cao ordered Zhong Xuan, the lieutenant of Sili, to send troops to Hanzhong to conquer Zhang Lu. Xiahou Yuan was ordered to lead his troops out of Hedong and meet Zhong Xuan. Gao Rou advised, "The dispatch of such a soldier will definitely arouse the suspicion of Han Sui, Ma Chao and other generals in Guanzhong, and they will raise troops to resist." Therefore, it is time to pacify the Sanfu area first. If the three assistants are peaceful, Hanzhong can be decided without a fight" but Cao Cao did not listen.
As Gao Rou expected, the ten generals of Ma Chao, Han Sui, Hou Xuan, Cheng Yin, Yang Qiu, Li Kan, Zhang Heng, Liang Xing, Cheng Yi, and Ma Wanguan actually rebelled together, organized an army of 100,000, and settled in Tongguan in Huayin County, Hongnong County (the 57th chapter of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" says that after Ma Teng, who was an official in the court, was killed by Cao Cao, his son Ma Chao raised troops to take revenge. But the historical fact is that Ma Teng was killed in the second year because of Ma Chao's rebellion. Luo Guanzhong deliberately reversed the chronological order and causal relationship)
When the news came, Cao Cao first ordered Cao Ren to lead the generals to refuse to defend it, and not to fight against the wall. Then Cao Pi, Cheng Yu, Xu Xuan, Guoyuan and others were left behind in Yecheng. In July, Cao Cao personally conquered Guanzhong. The generals said, "The Kansai soldiers practice spears more, and they are brave and good at fighting." If you are not a selected striker, you can't resist the enemy, "Cao Cao said" to fight or not, sovereignty is in me, not in the thief. Though he had a spear, I could keep him from stabbing him. Gentlemen, but see me break the enemy."
In August, Cao Cao came to Tongguan and confronted Ma Chao and others in Tongguan. He also secretly sent Xu Huang and Zhu Ling to lead 4,000 steps to ride across Puhanjin at night and set up a camp in Hexi. In leap August, Cao Cao began to cross the Yellow River north. The soldiers crossed first, and Cao Cao led more than 100 tigers to still cross the south bank. Ma Chao seized the opportunity and led more than 10,000 steps to ride halfway to attack, the arrow rained like rain, and Cao Cao sat on the bed without moving. This can be anxious Zhang He, Xu Chu and others beside him, Xu Chu personally helped Cao Cao to get on the boat, at this time the boatman has been shot by a stray arrow, Xu Chu held the saddle with his left hand to cover Cao Cao's arrows, and rowed with his right hand.
Captain Ding Fei was in a hurry and released cattle and horses as enemy bait. Ma Chao's subordinates went to snatch the cattle and horses, and Cao Cao was able to cross the river safely. The generals came to ask for peace one after another, and Cao Cao laughed and said, "I don't want to be trapped by thieves today" (in the 58th chapter of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there is also a description of Cao Cao cutting his beard and abandoning his robe, but there is no record in the history books)
Cao Cao ordered the construction of a road along the riverbank. There were many suspicious soldiers outside the road, and secretly built pontoon bridges, smuggled across Weishui, and set up camps on the south bank of Weishui. Ma Chao led his troops to retreat to Weikou, and attacked Cao's army camp in Weinan at night, but was repelled by ambushes. Ma Chao and others had no choice but to temporarily settle Weinan and send an envoy to Cao Cao to sue for peace, on the condition that the land west of the Yellow River be ceded, which Cao Cao refused.
