Jingzhou, the Three Kingdoms period has always been a place for soldiers, first owned by Liu Biao, after Liu Biao's death, his son Liu Cong dedicated Jingzhou to Cao Cao, after the Great War of Chibi and Jiangling, the northern part of Jingzhou was owned by Cao Cao, and the south was basically occupied by Liu Bei, after Liu Bei obtained Yizhou, Sun Quan and its Xiangshui demarcation, occupied three counties, after eliminating Guan Yu, the six southern counties of Jingzhou were basically occupied by Sun Quan.

【Jingzhou returns to Wu】

Historically, Jingzhou has long been one of the targets that Sun Wu has planned, and the "Jiangdu pair" planned by Sun Ce and Zhang Hong has been clearly put forward to seize Jingzhou, and later after Sun Ce's death, Lu Su took refuge in Sun Quan and put forward a "couch pair" for him, which directly has the plan of "exterminating Huang Zu and attacking Liu Biao, which is actually the extreme of the Yangtze River, and there is a plan".

It can be said that before Sun Ce established the Jiangdong Group, Jingzhou was already the target of the Sun family, and the three generations of Sun family leaders Sun Jian, Sun Ce, and Sun Quan had all captured Jingzhou.

In the second year of Chuping (191), Sun Jian attacked Liu Biao under the order of Yuan Shu, and once surrounded him in Xiangyang, but it was Sun Jian's carelessness that led to the defeat.

In the fourth year of Jian'an (199), Sun Ce sent troops to attack Huang Zu who was stationed in Jiangxia, killed Liu Hu, the nephew of Liu Cousin, and Han Na, a native of Nanyang, and defeated Huang Zu, when Huang Zu fled alone, the number of soldiers drowned reached 10,000, and Sun Ce captured 6,000 warships.

After Sun Ce's death, Sun Quan ascended to the throne and attacked Huangzu three times in the eighth year of Jian'an (203), the twelfth year of Jian'an (207), and the thirteenth year of Jian'an (208), finally eliminating him and occupying part of the territory of Jiangxia.

In the thirteenth year of Jian'an (208), Liu Biao died of illness, and Lu Su personally sent an envoy to Jingzhou to Sun Quan, trying to ally with Jingzhou, exploring the reality of Jingzhou, and even preparing to take the opportunity to seize Jingzhou, but Cao Cao went south first, Liu Cong, the son of Liu Biao, surrendered without a fight, Jingzhou fell, Sun Quan, Liu Bei and others fell into a passive situation, not to mention the capture of Jingzhou at that time, the Jiangdong Group even had the danger of extinction.

Later, under the lead of Lu Su, Sun Quan strengthened his determination to fight against Cao Cao, and at the same time united with Liu Bei, and the two allied against Cao, and finally the coalition army first defeated Cao Cao's army at Chibi, and then defeated Cao Ren, completely driving Cao's army south of the Yangtze River.

At this time, Sun Quan had already occupied part of the territory of Jiangxia County and Nanjun in Jingzhou, but later Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou, and Sun Quan lent the area of Nanjun to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei became the new Jingzhou Mu, occupying part of Jiangxia County and Nanjun in Jingzhou and most of the territory of Jingzhou in the south, including Lingling County, Wuling County, Changsha County, and Guiyang County.

After that, the relationship between Sun and Liu deteriorated, in the fifteenth year of Jian'an (215) Sun Quan asked Liu Bei to return Jingzhou after seizing Yizhou, Liu Bei did not give, Sun Quan retreated and asked for the next request to seize the three counties, Guan Yu also did not give, Sun Quan was angry and sent Lu Meng to send troops to seize Changsha, Guiyang, Lingling three counties, the two sides of the war was about to break out, and then because of Cao Cao's pressure, Liu Bei had to choose peace talks, the two sides of Xiangshui demarcated, Jiangxia, Changsha, Guiyang three counties belonged to Sun Quan, Nanjun, Wuling, Lingling three counties to Liu Bei.

In the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an (219), Guan Yu launched the Battle of Xiangfan, and Sun Quan secretly united with Cao Cao and sent Lü Meng, Lu Xun and others to attack Guan Yu's rear, and finally eliminated Guan Yu and captured the remaining three counties. In the following year (220), Meng Da betrayed Liu Bei and returned to Cao, and Shangyong and other places were also seized by Cao Pi's troops, and Liu Bei's territory in Jingzhou was completely lost.

At this time, Sun Quan had completely controlled the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and the central and southern parts of Jingzhou were also owned by him.

[Mi Fang surrendered, Mi Zhu died]

In history, Mi Fang will surrender to Sun Quan is actually very incredible, because he and Liu Bei have a kinship, his sister is one of Liu Bei's wives, his brother Mi Zhu's status in Yizhou is even higher than Zhuge Liang's line, after he surrendered, no matter how the status and treatment can not be higher than in Yizhou, at that time, although Lü Meng has been in the city, but Jiangling is an important town in Jingzhou, easy to defend and difficult to attack, Mi Fang is likely to be able to hold out until Guan Yu comes back if he insists.

After Mi Fang surrendered, he was also very despised, once, Lu Fang traveled by boat, and encountered Yu overturned the boat, and the people on Mi Fang's boat wanted Yu to get out of the way, and shouted forward: "Avoid our general's ship!" Yu said sharply: "Why should those who have lost their loyalty serve the monarch?" Is it okay for a man to lose two cities and be called a general? Mi Fang was very ashamed, closed the window of the boat and let Yu turn first.

Later, Yu Flip traveled by car, passing Mi Fang's camp, but the officials did not open the door, and Yu Flip's carriage and horses could not pass. Yu Chuan said very angrily: "What should be opened is closed, what should be closed is opened, how can there be such a thing?" When Mi Fang heard this, she was even more annoyed.

After Mi Fang defected, Mi Zhu tied himself up and went to Liu Bei to ask for guilt, and Liu Bei comforted him in turn, thinking that his brother's sin had nothing to do with his brother, and treated him as polite as ever. But Mi Zhu became ill of shame and hatred, and died more than a year later.

【Conquer Jingzhou】

After Sun Quan eliminated Guan Yu and captured Jingzhou, he also obtained a number of talents, the most representative of which was Pan Jun, a native of Wuling.

Pan Jun, whose name is Chengming, is a native of Hanshou County, Wuling County. He studied with Song Zhongzi as an adult. When he was less than thirty years old, Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao recruited him to work for Jiangxia in Benzhou. At that time, the magistrate of Shaxian County was corrupt and did not cultivate his conduct, and Pan Jun killed him in accordance with the law, and the whole county was shocked.

Later, Pan Jun was the county magistrate of Xiangxiang County, and his political achievements were quite famous. Liu Bei worked part-time in Jingzhou, and was engaged in Pan Jun's governance. After Liu Bei entered Shu, he left Pan Jun in charge of Jingzhou affairs. Sun Quan attacked and killed Guan Yu, annexed the land of Jingzhou, and appointed Pan Jun as the lieutenant general of the auxiliary army, and awarded it to the soldiers. He was promoted to General Fenwei and knighted as Marquis of Changqianting.

According to the "Biography of Jiangbiao", Sun Quan sent troops to attack and kill Guan Yu, and after occupying Jingzhou, all the generals and officials were attached, but Pan Jun said that he was missing. Sun Quan personally came to visit, Pan Jun was still in tears, bedridden, Sun Quan took Guan Ding's father, Peng Zhongshuang and other captive Chu sages as an example to comfort Pan Jun, and sent someone to wipe his face with a handkerchief, Pan Jun went down to thank him, and told Sun Quan in detail about the military deployment of Jingzhou, and was worshiped as the general of the auxiliary army, and led the troops.

At that time, Wuling engaged in Fan Guan's attempt to incite the Wuxi barbarians to dedicate Wuling to Liu Bei, Sun Quan asked Pan Jun, Pan Jun thought that it was enough to send 5,000 people, Sun Quan asked why he despised him, Pan Jun replied: "Fan Xuan is quite able to show off his lips, but in fact he has no talent for debate, he has prepared a banquet for the people in the state before, but at noon there is nothing to eat, more than a dozen people left on their own, which is like seeing only a part of the dwarf, you can know the whole picture." Sun Quan laughed and sent Pan Jun to lead 5,000 people, and sure enough, he killed Fan Guan.
