Lv Meng, Zi Ming, was Mrs. Pi from runan county (now southeast of Funan County, Anhui Province). When I was a teenager, I crossed the river with my brother-in-law Deng Dang. Monroe's brother-in-law, Deng Dang, was a ministry of Sun Ce. When he was only fifteen or sixteen years old, he went to war with the army. After Deng Dang's death, Monroe led his army and Sun Quan to various places. Monroe was a pioneer in the battle against Liu Biao's Huang Zu department, and he was appointed as the commander of Yoko.
At the beginning of Monroe's study, Sun Quan enlightened him and another brave general, Jiang Qin, saying, "Now you are all in important positions, in charge of state affairs, so you should study more and make progress." Monroe pleaded, "You often suffered a lot in the military camp, so I'm afraid you can't study any more." Sun Quan patiently pointed out: "Do I want you to learn classics to be a doctor? I just ask you to read more books, understand the past and increase your knowledge. Who do you think has as many affairs as me? When I was young, I read The Book of Songs, Shangshu, Book of Rites, Zuo Zhuan and Guoyu, but I never read Zhouyi. Since I took office, I have carefully studied the "Three History" (Historical Records, Hanshu, Dongguan Han Ji) and the laws of sending troops, and I feel that I have gained a lot. Like you two. You should read Sun Tzu's Art of War, Six Towers, Zuo Zhuan, Mandarin and Three History first. Grandson once said,' You can't dream without eating all day and sleeping all night. It is better to study. "In charge of directing the war, Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty continued to write. Cao Cao also said that he was old and studious. Why can't you encourage yourself? "Since then, Monroe began to study and concentrate on his research. Even the old Confucian scholar can't catch up with the books he reads.
After Zhou Yu took charge of Wu Jun, Lu Su passed Monroe's station on his way to office, and Monroe hosted a wine for him. Lu Su still looks at people with old eyes and thinks that Monroe is brave and foolhardy, but when they talk about what's going on in the world at the banquet, Lu Su is shocked. After the banquet, Lu Su sighed, "I always thought my brother had only a little martial arts. Today, my brother is outstanding in knowledge, and he is really not under Wu. " But more people are impressed. The dude is not as good as Zhou Gongjin (Zhou Yu) today, and he is Guan Yu's neighbor. It's really hard. Although Guan Yu is old, he never tires of learning. He reads Zuo Zhuan fluently, is honest and straightforward, and has a heroic character, but he is quite conceited. Buddy is adjacent to him, so there should be a good way to deal with him. "He planned three schemes for Lu Su, and Lu Su was very grateful.
