Zhang Hong was the important minister of the leaders of the Sun family of Sun Ce and Sun Quan, and had unparalleled influence on the old Sun family, but unfortunately he died soon after persuading Sun Quan to move the capital to Moling.

In the seventeenth year of Jian'an (212), Zhang Hong suggested that Sun Quan move the capital to Moling, Sun Quan asked Zhang Hong to go back to Wu County to pick up his family, and Zhang Hong died of illness halfway through, he was sixty years old, and Sun Quan was weeping for it.

【Exhortation to discourage soldiers】

When he was loyal to Sun Ce, Zhang Hong once advised Sun Ce to pay attention to his own safety and not to go out blindly as a commander.

When Sun Quan attacked Hefei for the first time, Zhang Hong accompanied the army to conquer Hefei. Sun Quan led the light cavalry to prepare to surprise the enemy in person, and Zhang Hong advised: "A weapon is a murder weapon, and war is a danger." Now you rely on the vigorous and majestic momentum, despise the powerful and fierce enemy, the officers and men of the three armies, all chilling, although the enemy will capture the enemy's flag and shock the enemy's army, but this is only the responsibility of the general, not the commander's doing. I hope you will restrain the courage and recklessness of Meng Ben and Xia Yu, and have the great plan to become a king. Sun Quan accepted his advice and gave up on the action.

After returning to the division, Sun Quan prepared to send troops again in the second year, and Zhang Hong advised: "Since ancient times, the emperor is the monarch who bears the mandate of heaven. However, martial arts are important when they are taken, and then they are built up to power. Now that you are suffering from the misfortune of the Han family that has not been seen in 400 years, and you have the merit of helping the people in need, you should temporarily hide the army, extensively cultivate agriculture, and appoint the virtuous to enable you, and you must advocate the policy of leniency and benevolence, and follow the mandate of heaven to carry out punishment, so that the world can be pacified without labor. So Sun Quan stopped the military campaign.

【Dying Notes】

Before Zhang Hong died, he instructed his son Zhang Jing to leave a note to Sun Quan, saying: "Since ancient times, people who have a country and a family have wanted to cultivate virtue and politics to prosper the world, but as for their governance, most of them have no ideal results. It is not that there is no support from loyal ministers and good generals, it is not that they do not understand the fundamentals of governing the country, but because the monarch cannot overcome his likes and dislikes and is not good at listening to opinions. It is normal for people to be afraid of difficulties and tend to be easy, and to prefer the same opinions and hate different opinions, which is exactly the opposite of the law of governance. There is a saying in "Yi Chuan" that "being good is like climbing a mountain, and learning bad is like collapsing a mountain", which means that learning is not easy. Isn't it natural that the monarch inherits the inheritance that has been passed down from generation to generation, and by virtue of natural tendencies, holds the authority of the eight powers of the courtiers, and is willing to do good things and listen to good words, without asking for anything from others, and the loyal ministers have the art of governing the country that is difficult to use, and speak against the ear, and the two cannot agree with each other? Disagreement will produce estrangement, clever words will make people take advantage of the void, the monarch will be deceived by false loyalty, covetous love of villains, so the virtuous and foolish are mixed, the young and the old are disordered, the cause of these situations is that human relations disturb the normal ruling order. Therefore, the holy monarch woke up to this, and hungrily sought talents, tirelessly accepted advice, restrained feelings, reduced ****, and gave up love for the sake of morality. You should think twice, endure humiliation, and hide your edge, so as to achieve the great cause of benevolence, righteousness, and the world. "Zhang Hong died at the age of sixty. Sun Quan read his suicide note and wept and exchanged.

Zhang Hong also has considerable literary achievements in the history of the Three Kingdoms, Chen Lin once wrote "Arsenal Fu", Zhang Hong wrote a letter to praise Chen Lin's literary talent after reading it. Chen Lin said that compared with Zhang Hong and Zhang Zhao, they are insignificant. He is the author of more than a dozen poems.

【Three Achievements】

Zhang Hong is one of the important figures of Jiangdong Group, and Zhang Zhao is collectively called "Erzhang", Chen Shou has commented that "Zhang Hong's literary and rational intentions are correct, and he is the world's commander, and Sun Ce treats him inferior to Zhang Zhao, and he is sincere." ”

In addition, according to the "Biography of Jiang Biao", when Sun Quan was in power, he directly called most of his ministers, but called Zhang Zhao Zhang Gong and Zhang Hong the east, which shows Sun Quan's importance to the two.

Zhang Hong made three major contributions to Sun Wu Group in his life, the first was to propose "Jiangdu Pair" for Sun Ce; second, after Sun Ce's death, he dissuaded Cao Cao from going south; The third is to propose to Sun Quan to move the capital to Moling.

"Jiangdu right" is the first systematic strategic policy of Jiangdong Group, Zhang Hong on the basis of Sun Ce further put forward the strategic goal of "sitting in the south and looking north", originally Sun Ce's original goal was only to occupy Wu County, Huiji and other places, as the outer fan of the imperial court, to avenge his father, and Zhang Hong thought that the world was in chaos, and the hero should take advantage of the situation, Sun Ce should further control Yangzhou and Jingzhou after occupying the second county of Yangzhou, and then rely on the Yangtze River, the goal is at least Qi Huan, Jin Wen this level. Zhang Hong was also the first person in the Soochow Group to propose to occupy Yang and Jing Erzhou south of the Yangtze River, after all, when he was talking to Sun Ce about this matter, the Soochow Group actually did not exist.

And after Sun Ce's death, the Jiangdong group fell into a short period of chaos, at this time the successor Sun Quan urgently needed to stabilize the internal, and Zhang Hong's success in dissuading Cao Cao from going south at this time was very critical, first of all, Cao Cao was strong at that time, and had just defeated Yuan Shao in Guandu, he could pull out his hand, in addition, Cao Cao also had great righteousness, if Cao Cao sent enough troops in the name of the imperial court, it would pose a great threat to Sun Quan's position, so Zhang Hong's persuasion temporarily dispelled Cao Cao's intention to do something to Sun Quan, Enough time was bought for Sun Quan to stabilize the interior.

The last great credit was to persuade Sun Quan to move to Moling, which was nothing to say, and later Moling was renamed Jianye and became one of the long-term political and economic centers of South China, and Zhang Hong was very prescient in this regard.
