Chapter 022: The Hanzhong Group in History

There are not many talents under Zhang Lu's command in history, including Yang Ren, Yang Song, Yang Bai and others are still fictional characters in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which do not exist in real history.

In fact, Zhang Lu's subordinates only have his younger brothers Zhang Wei, Yan Pu, Yang Ang, Yang Bai, Cheng Yin, Hou Xuan, Liu Xiongming, Ma Chao, Ma Dai, Pang De, Dong Chong and so on.

【Zhang Lu and Wudou Mijiao】

There are different historical records about the time of Zhang Lu's death.

According to the "Legend of the Dragon, Volume 5", Zhang Lu died in 245 years of the Western calendar - Shi Lu, the character of the Gong period, the heir of the master and the son, the general of Zhennan in the Great Wei Tejie, and the assassin of Liang and Yi Erzhou. After the hermitage of the posthumous training, in August of the sixth year of the Zhengshi, he also ascended to heaven in Yangpinghua.

According to the record of "True Message, Volume 4, Fortune Chapter", Zhang Lu died in 259 years of the Western calendar - according to Zhang's division, he was the general of Zhennan, died in the twenty-first year of Jian'an, and was buried in Yedong. Forty-four years later, to Wei Ganlu four years, when the coffin was opened, the corpse was like life, out of bed, because of the dust tail covered, laughing, and died, but still more funeral. Outside of the book, slightly. What method should be used for the night of the trial. is like Xu Peng, it seems that it is not a sword and a staff.

At present, the mainstream date of Zhang Lu's death is the twenty-first year of Jian'an (216), that is, one year after Cao Cao's capture of Hanzhong, but I have not found any record of this time in the Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms: The Biography of Zhang Lu, the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, and the Zizhi Tongjian.

However, if Zhang Lu died in the twenty-first (216) of Jian'an, it would be a little confusing, because Zhang Lu's younger brother Zhang Wei also died at about this time, which is too much of a coincidence. But if it is Cao Cao who secretly removed Zhang Lu, Meng De's classmate treated Zhang Lu very well, and after Zhang Lu surrendered, he was still made a marquis, and his five sons were also named liehous, and he couldn't see Cao Cao's dissatisfaction with the old Zhang family, if there was no conspiracy, Zhang Lu and Zhang Wei also died too quickly, too coincidentally.

After Zhang Lu surrendered, Cao Cao moved the local people on a large scale, and the Wudou Rice Sect also took the opportunity to further develop, when Cao Cao moved Zhang Lu and a large number of other Hanzhong people to Chang'an, Luoyang, Yecheng and other important towns, they took advantage of the Cao Wei regime's leniency to the Zhang Lu family, or explicitly or covertly spread the Five Dou Rice Road to the lower and upper classes of society. After Cao Wei and the Western Jin Dynasty, to the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Wudou Midao made great progress, so that the power of Wudou Midao developed to the north and the Central Plains.

【Under Zhang Lu】

In history, Zhang Lu's subordinates can be said to be pitiful, and even Mr. Luo Guanzhong may not be able to see it, so he helped Zhang Lu add Yang Ren, Yang Song, and Yang Bai in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Zhang Lu's subordinates basically recorded only a few people such as Zhang Wei, Yan Pu, Yang Ang, Yang Bai, etc., and the rest like Cheng Yin, Hou Xuan, Liu Xiongming, Ma Chao, Ma Dai, Pang De, Dong Chong and others were all the original Guanzhong princes who were defeated by Cao Cao in the battle of Guanzhong in Hanzhong and took refuge in him.

Zhang Wei was a native of Pei Guofeng (now Feng County, Jiangsu) at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the younger brother of Zhang Lu, and the word Gongzhi. When Cao Cao captured Hanzhong in the twentieth year of Jian'an (215), Zhang Lu wanted to surrender, but Zhang Wei led the battle, although Zhang Wei finally failed, but he did block Cao Cao for a time, but in the end his luck was not very good. According to the "World Language", "Wei was afraid, thinking that the army was hidden, so he surrendered", and was later named General Zhaoyi, and died in the twenty-first year of Jian'an (216).

According to the record of "The Family of Han Tianshi", Zhang Wei was also the elder brother of Nanjun Taishou Zhang Zheng, and because of his belief in Taoism, he abandoned his official position and went home.

Yan Pu was a native of Anhan in Yizhou, and Zhang Lu's Gongcao was also his actual main advisor. Earlier, he had dissuaded Zhang Lu from being called the king of Hanning, after Yangping Pass was captured by Cao Cao, Zhang Lu was ready to surrender, Yan Pu persuaded Zhang Lu not to surrender for the time being, first retreat to Bazhong, and then sell himself at a good price, and so on Zhang Lu to Bazhong, Yan Pu persuaded him to choose between Cao Cao and Liu Bei as soon as possible, and finally Zhang Lu took refuge in Cao Cao, and Yan Pu was also named a liege.

In the first year of Yankang (220 years), Yan Pu was listed as a persuasion and called "the Marquis of Pingle Pavilion, the general of the Jianjie Festival". In the early Huang Dynasty, Cao Pi increased his fiefdom and was invited again for a long time. More than ten years later, Yan Pu died of illness.

Yang Ang is one of the most powerful generals under Zhang Lu. When Ma Chao captured Liangzhou, he was sent by Zhang Lu to help him besiege Liangzhou Assassin Shi Weikang in Liangzhou Zhizhi Jicheng, after the city was broken, Yang Ang executed Shi Weikang with Ma Chao's acquiescence. In the Battle of Yangping Pass, Yang Ang helped Zhang Wei fight against Cao Cao and lost, after which there is no record.

Yang Bai is one of Zhang Lu's subordinate generals, and he once wanted to harm Ma Chao.

Cheng Yin, Hou Xuan, Liu Xiongming were originally the princes of Guanzhong, in addition to Liu Xiongming, they all participated in the Guanzhong coalition against Cao Cao, after the defeat of the Guanzhong coalition army, Cheng Yin and Hou Xuan took refuge in Zhang Lu, as for Liu Xiongming because he refused to participate in the coalition army was defeated by Ma Chao, and was sent by him to collect the old department after taking refuge in Cao Cao, but was coerced by his subordinates to rebel, was defeated by Xiahou Yuan, and then returned to Zhang Lu, after Hanzhong was occupied by Cao Cao, all three surrendered to Cao Cao, Cheng Yin, Hou Xuan and the two officials were reinstated, and Liu Xiongming was transferred to Bohai County.

Ma Chao seized Liangzhou with the help of Zhang Lu, but soon lost his territory because of the rebellion of his subordinates, and his wife and children were slaughtered.

Ma Dai and Dong Chong are all relatives of Ma Chao, Ma Dai is Ma Chao's younger brother, and Dong Chong is the younger brother of Ma Chao's concubine.

Pang De was originally under the command of Ma Teng, and from Ma Teng he attacked the rebellious Qiang, Di and other foreign tribes, and several of them had military exploits and moved to the school captain. Later, in the Hedong War, Pang De accompanied the horse to the expedition, and beheaded Guo Yuan, the commander under Yuan Tan, and then Zhang Bai rode to rebel against Hongnong, and Pang Defu went to the expedition with Ma Teng, and broke the rebels between the east and west mountains.

After Ma Teng entered the court as a guard lieutenant, Pang De stayed under Ma Chao, and participated in the Battle of Weinan in Guanzhong and the Battle of Jicheng in Liangzhou with Ma Chao, after Ma Chao failed in Liangzhou, he defected to Zhang Lu with Ma Chao, but when Ma Chao went south to join Liu Bei, Pang De did not follow, and after Cao Cao captured Hanzhong, Pang De surrendered with the crowd. Cao Cao had always heard that Pang De was brave and good at fighting, so he worshiped Pang De as the righteous general, and was named the Marquis of Guanmen Pavilion, with 300 households.

Later, Pang De followed Cao Ren to quell the Hou Yin Rebellion in Wancheng, and participated in the Battle of Xiangfan, and after being captured by Guan Yu, he was unyielding to death and was killed by Guan Yu.

Overall, although Zhang Lu has been at ease in Hanzhong for 20 years, it is more because Hanzhong is peaceful and the opponent is not strong that he can survive, and the overall strength of Hanzhong Group is not strong
