Brief introduction of Zhou Yu
Zhou Yu (175-2 10), a native of Shucheng, Lujiang, Gong Jin, was the first of the four great British generals in Soochow. I have known Sun Ce since I was a child, and I have become a friend of life and death. After Sun Ce became independent from Yuan Shu, Zhou Yu took the initiative to go to Sun Ce. In Sun Ce's war to pacify Jiangdong, he played the dual role of counselor and military commander, and conquered Taishi Ci by stratagem. After Sun Ce pacified Jiangdong, Zhou Yu was appointed commander-in-chief of the water army. In 200, Sun Ce died young. Before he died, he said to Sun Quan, "Ask Zhou Yu about diplomacy." . After Sun Quan succeeded to the throne, he also trusted Zhou Yu very much. In 2003, Sun Quan made a westward expedition to Huang Zu, and Zhou Yu played an important role. In 207, Cao Cao went south, aiming at Jiangdong, and Sun Quan went to war, which was undecided. Zhou Yu rushed back from Poyang Lake in time, correctly analyzed the disadvantages of Cao Cao's long journey, and made Sun Quan decide to fight Cao Cao. As the commander-in-chief of the water army, Zhou Yu defeated Cao Cao with fire, which is the famous Battle of Red Cliffs.

After Battle of Red Cliffs, Zhou Yu was killed by an arrow when he attacked Nanjun. In desperation, he had to retreat to Chaisang County to recuperate. During Zhou Yu's illness, remind Sun Quan to beware of Liu Bei. In 2 10, Zhou Yu led the troops to attack Xichuan. Arriving in Baqiu City, he was wounded by an arrow and died young at the age of 36. After hearing the news, Sun Quan immediately welcomed Zhou Yu's coffin back to Chai Sang in plain clothes. Zhou Yu in history was charming and broad-minded.

Cheng Pu, a veteran of Wu Dong, followed Sun Jian in his early years, thinking highly of his achievements and despising the young Zhou Yu. However, Zhou Yu didn't care about Cheng Pu, and finally persuaded Cheng Pu himself. Cheng Pu said, "You and Zhou Jin's bus friends won't get drunk." In the Song Dynasty, the world still liked Zhou Yu very much, as can be seen from Su Shi's Niannujiao. However, after the Yuan Dynasty, people gradually vilified Zhou Yu, and by the time the Romance of the Three Kingdoms was published, Zhou Yu had completely changed.

Speaking of heroes in the Three Kingdoms period, we can't help but mention Zhou Yu.

Since ancient times, heroes have emerged as teenagers, and Zhou Yu is one of them. Zhou Yu helped Sun Ce establish the inheritance of Jiangdong when he was a teenager. Zhou Yu is young and handsome. People in Wuxian love to call Zhou Weilang. Before he died, Sun Ce told his younger brother Sun Quan, "Never ask Zhou Yu about foreign affairs." . This shows that Zhou Yu's ability is different.

After Cao Cao seized Jingzhou from Liu Bei, his strength was already very strong. At this time, Soochow was divided into two factions: the main war faction and the main peace faction. Zhou Yu tried his best to fight the main battle, knowing Cao Jun's weakness, and joined hands with Liu Bei to defeat Cao Jun in Chibi, which was the famous Battle of Red Cliffs. So Cao Cao stayed in the north for many years and dared not go south.

As one of the main figures in Battle of Red Cliffs, Zhou Yu went down in history with this famous battle. 900 years later, Su Shi is still hanging by the river: "... to the west of the old base, humanity is the red cliff of Zhou Lang in the Three Kingdoms ..."

Zhou Yu died young, 2 1 1 year. Zhou Yu died of illness on the way out at the age of 36. After learning the news, Sun Quan was deeply saddened and personally took care of the affairs. The so-called death of Zhou Yu in a rage by Zhuge Liang belongs to the story of "romance". In fact, Zhou Yu is cheerful, modest and easy-going. The people of Wu Jun not only admire this outstanding man who has made great achievements in military affairs, but also win the respect of his opponents.

Zhou Yu

Zhou Yu (A.D. 175-2 10) was born in Shu County, Lujiang (now southwest of Lujiang County, Anhui Province). Wu Dongjie is a strategist and politician.

Help Sun Ce open up Jiangzuo.

In the 4th year of Emperor Xi of Han Ping (AD 175), Zhou Yu was born into a noble family. His great-grandfather Zhou Rong served as a bookkeeper in the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty. From ancestors to uncles, they are all officials, ranking third. Zhou Yu's father, Zhou Yi, was ordered by Luoyang.

When Zhou Yu was a child, the rule of the Eastern Han regime was facing a serious crisis. Political corruption, economic depression, and unprecedented intensification of various social contradictions. During the suppression of the yellow turban insurrectionary, various factions within the ruling class took the opportunity to expand their military strength. The competition between them is fierce and the conflict is escalating. Political instability and frequent wars accelerated the weakening of imperial power and the formation of separatist regime. In the sixth year of Zhong Ping (AD 189), Emperor Han Ling died of illness. Some counties in kanto region were dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo's dictatorship, so they sent troops to crusade. Sun Jian, an aristocrat belonging to Yuan Shu, also took part in Dong Lianjun's election. Before he left, Sun Jian settled his family in Shu County. Fourteen-year-old Zhou Yu met Sun Jian's eldest son, Sun Ce. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are the same age, both ambitious teenagers. The two have the same interests and have a good relationship. Zhou Yu gave part of his house to Sun Ce and often helped him financially.

In the second year of Xingping (AD 195), Zhou Yu was twenty years old. He will cross the river to visit his uncle Shang Zhou, who is the prefect of Danyang. At this time, Zhou Yu received a letter from Sun Ce from Liyang (now Anhui County), inviting him to Jiangdong. Four years ago, in the second year of Chuping (A.D. 19 1), Sun Jian attacked Xiangyang and was killed by Huang Zu by Liu Biao. After his father's death, Sun Ce defected to Yuan Shu in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and Huaihe River. Due to long-term suspicion and depression, Sun Ce decided to leave Yuan Shu. He borrowed 3,000 soldiers to return to his native land in Jiangdong and develop his own power. After receiving the letter, Zhou Yu, who was looking for a political way out, immediately led his own thousands of private soldiers to Liyang. At the same time, he also brought a lot of boats and boats. Sun Ce was overjoyed and Zhou Yu was invited. He said: With you, Zhou Yu, my career can be successful.

Sun Ce's military action to attack Jiangdong is progressing very smoothly. Zhou Yu, Jiangdong celebrities Cheng Pu, Zhang Zhao and others assisted Sun Ce, successively laid Moling, Hu Zhe and Jiangcheng, drove out Liu You, the secretariat of Yangzhou, and occupied Qua (now Danyang, Jiangsu). Within ten days, Sun Ce's army increased by more than 20,000 people, with thousands of horses, making it a sublime city in Jiangdong. Before continuing eastward, Sun Ce entrusted Zhou Yu with the important task of guarding Danyang (now Nanjing, Jiangsu) and told him that I had captured Wu Jun (now Suzhou, Jiangsu) and Huiji (now Shaoxing, Zhejiang) and pacified Shanyue (the ethnic minorities in Jiangdong), and these forces were enough. Just watch Danyang for me.

Danyang is a strategic location leading to the south of the Yangtze River. Yuan Shu didn't want Sun Ce to own Danyang, so he sent his younger brother Yuan Yin to replace Shang Zhou as the magistrate of Danyang. Unable to resist, Zhou Yu was forced to obey Yuan Shu's orders and left Danyang with his uncle to Yuan Shu's residence Shouchun (now Shouxian County, Anhui Province).

Yuan Shu appreciates Zhou Yu's talent. He took Jian 'an for three years (AD 198) and wanted to appoint him as his general. At this point, Zhou Yu has been under Yuan Shu's account for three years, and he despises Yuan Shu's short-sightedness and arrogance. Especially in the second year of Jian 'an, Yuan Shu ignored the opposition of his subordinates and became the target of public criticism. This foolish self-restraint aroused Zhou Yu's disgust. However, Sun Ce gradually pacified the separatist forces in the counties in the south of the Yangtze River, seized Wu Jun, Huiji and other places, then broke with Yuan Shu, set up another court, appointed a long history, and initially established the Sun Shi regime in Jiangdong. Zhou Yu, who decided that Yuan Shu would never achieve anything, didn't want to stay in Shouchun any longer and decided to return to Sun Ce. Zhou Yu refused the title of general and asked Yuan Shu to stay in Juchao (now Tongcheng South) for a long time. Juchao is close to the Yangtze River, and Zhou Yu's attempt is to go down the river from Juchao to Jiangdong. Yuan Shu didn't know the intention of Zhou Yu's false trip to the East, but he met Zhou Yu's requirements. In Juchao, Zhou Yu met Lu Su, a famous family east of Huaihe River (now Dingyuan, Anhui Province). Under his persuasion, Lu Su gave up his position as mayor of Dongcheng, betrayed Yuan Shu and went with Zhou Yudong.

After arriving in Jiangdong, Zhou Yu received a grand courtesy. Sun Ce specially prepared a first-class mansion and a generous reward for him, and personally went out of the city to meet him. Sun Ce made Zhou a corps commander and allocated 2,000 infantry and 50 cavalry. I was twenty-five years old last week. Because of his handsome appearance and charming charm, Jiangdong people nicknamed him "Zhou Lang". Sun Ce took him as the guardian of Niuzhu, and soon he was reassigned as the leader of Spring Valley. Niuzhu, Chungu and Lujiang are all important places to guard the throat of Jiangdong, separated by a river. Considering that the Zhou family in Shu County is a famous family in Lujiang, Sun Ce appointed Zhou Yu as the governor, which can make full use of the social influence of his family to recruit talents, recruit talents and expand his strength. In June of the fourth year of Jian 'an (AD 199), Yuan Shu died of illness. Most of his troops surrendered to Liu Xun, the satrap of Lujiang who occupied Anhui (now Anhui Buried Hill). Sun Ce was afraid that Liu Xun would become the second Yuan Shu and decided to design and destroy him. So, he deliberately induced Liu Xun to attack Xuanshanyue, then took advantage of it and led more than 20,000 people to sneak into Anhui with Zhou Yu. After taking Anhui City lightly, Zhou Yu followed Sun Ce to find Yang and Sha Xian, and defeated Huang Zu, who came back to Li to save Anhui. After several battles, Sun Ce captured more than 30,000 soldiers and 7,000 warships of the other side, which greatly increased his strength. Through this westward journey, Zhang Yu (now Nanchang, Jiangxi) and Luling (now northwest of Jishui, Jiangxi) were all owned by Jiangdong. After the war, Zhou Yu led Jiangxia County (Sun Ce awarded Zhou Yu this position before taking Anhui City) to defend Baqiu (now Yueyang, Hunan Province) and prevent Liu Biao from occupying Jingzhou (now Hubei, Hunan Province) from invading eastward.

Mid-stream anti-pillar, to resist Cao

In April of the fifth year of Jian 'an (AD 200), Sun Ce was killed and his brother Sun Quan succeeded to the throne. At that time, the Sun Shi regime in Jiangdong only took shape and was not consolidated: there were strong enemies Cao Cao and Liu Biao outside; There are still many small separatist forces in some depths of the territory, and many people in the ruling camp look around. "Go for security and do whatever it takes" (Biography of the Three Kingdoms Wu Shu Wu Quan), the situation is urgent and people are in panic. This situation was not changed until Zhou Yu came from Baqiu with a great army. Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao took the initiative to take charge of some trivial administrative affairs, fully supported and assisted Sun Quan, and quickly settled the situation in Jiangdong. Zhou Yu personally came forward to retain Lu Su, who was preparing to go north, and recommended to Sun Quan the political talent who had not been reused by Sun Ce. Later, Lu Su became an extremely active politician on the political stage in Jiangdong. After the battle of Guandu, the political situation in the northern region has undergone major changes. Yuan Shao, who had a huge army, died after being defeated by Cao Cao. The two sons attacked each other and killed each other, and their strength weakened. Cao Cao began to dominate the Central Plains and his strength increased greatly. In order to test the reality of Jiangdong, Cao Cao took Sun Quan as a hostage in the seventh year of Jian 'an (AD 202). Sun Quan called the generals to discuss countermeasures. Faced with Cao Cao's threats, many people hesitated. Zhou Yu resolutely opposed giving in to Cao Cao. He believes that Jiangdong has superior natural environment, convenient transportation, more soldiers and better food, and has the conditions for separatist regimes. It should never bow to Cao Cao. Sending hostages will be negatively restrained by Cao Cao. Zhou Yu's opinion was unanimously endorsed by Sun Quan's mother and son. Sun Quan's mother also told her son to respect Zhou Yu like her brother.

Since the fifth year of Jian 'an (AD 200), Zhou Yu has been sitting in Wu County, making suggestions for Sun Quan, pacifying chaos and seeking rebellion. In the meantime, in order to stabilize the internal affairs, Zhou Yu led the troops to suppress the rebellion in Shanyue many times. In the 11th year of Jian 'an (AD 206), Zhou Yu personally supervised the ethnic minorities in Ma, Bao 'ertun and other places. The war was so cruel that Zhou Yu showed off all the tribal leaders he captured and forced more than 10 thousand people to move to the heart of Jiangdong regime.

During his stay in Wu, Zhou Yu was repeatedly ordered to attack Liu Biao. Sun Quan and Liu Biao vowed to be at loggerheads. First, Jingzhou, occupied by Liu Biao, is adjacent to Yangzhou and belongs to the object of the westward development of Jiangdong regime. Second, Sun Quan's father, Sun Jian, died at the hand of Liu Biao's Ministry, and there was a feud between the two sides. Sun Quan inherited Sun Ce's policy and continued to advance westward. Zhou Yu often served as his coach.

In the 13th year of Jian 'an (AD 208), Zhou Yu suggested to Sun Quan that Liu Biao surrender. Sun Quan accepted Gan Ning's suggestion and personally attacked Huang Zu in Xiakou (now Hankou, Hubei). Zhou Yu was appointed as the former minister. The two armies fought a fierce water war, and Jiang Dongjun finally captured Xiakou and killed Huang Zu. The elimination of Huang Zu cleared the way for Sun Quan to seize Jingzhou.

During this period, Cao Cao in the north has completely eliminated the residual strength of the Yuan family and defeated Wuhuan in the three counties. He moved100000 Han households captured by Wuhuan and 30000 Wuhuan in Youzhou and Bingzhou to Sene, basically unifying the north. Cao Cao is ambitious, trying to win victory and complete the great cause of reunification in the south. In July this year, Cao Cao led an army to attack Liu Biao, ready to seize Jingzhou. Before Cao Jun arrived, Liu Biao died long ago, and his son Liu Cong surrendered without a fight. Liu Cong surrendered without informing Liu Bei who lived in Fancheng in advance. Liu Bei was outnumbered and did not dare to fight, so he had to retreat all the way to the south and fled to Xiakou in a panic. Cao Jun went south to Jingzhou, posing a serious threat to Jiangdong regime. In particular, Cao Cao got a large number of navy warships in Jingzhou, and it is said that Jiangling (now Jiangling, Hubei Province) has sufficient food and weapons reserves, which made Jiangdong court very uneasy. In September, Sun Quan inspected the front line of Jingzhou. Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei's counselor, also rushed to Chaisang (now southwest of Jiujiang, Jiangxi) to pay his respects to Sun Quan, and tried to persuade Sun Quan and Liu Bei to jointly defeat Cao Cao. At the same time, Sun Quan received a letter from Cao Cao, in which he threatened to fight to the death with 80 Wan Shuijun. The situation is grim and Jiangdong is very frightened. Zhang Zhao and others were frightened by the momentum of Cao Jun. They thought it was very powerful and conquered all directions in the name of the emperor. The confrontation with Cao Jun is nominally passive. Moreover, the advantage of Jiangdong lies in the natural barrier of the Yangtze River. Cao Cao got Jingzhou, took away Liu Biao's water army and acquired a large number of warships. The natural barrier became something shared by both sides. Strength disparity, Jiangdong only meet Cao Cao is the way out. Sun Quan accepted Lu Su's suggestion and recalled Zhou Yu who was ordered to Poyang to discuss countermeasures. Zhou Yu opposed surrender and fought hard for the main battle. He repeatedly emphasized to Sun Quan the possibility of a separatist regime in Jiangdong. He said that Jiangdong has a vast territory, sufficient food and ammunition, internal stability and political consolidation. Cao Cao is a famous Chinese thief. Sun Quan, with outstanding talent, can inherit the business of his father and brother and clean up the filth for the court. He also thinks that Cao Cao has a series of fatal weaknesses. For example, the north is not completely pacified, and the rear is not very stable, especially Ma Chao and Han Sui in Kansai are still harassing the west of Hangu Pass, which makes Cao Cao very uneasy. In addition to his worries, Cao Jun also faced many insurmountable difficulties: his soldiers were mainly northerners, who came to the south to "abandon the pommel horse and stick to the boat" to confront the Jiangdong army, which was used to fighting on water. Because northerners don't adapt to the water and soil in the south, it is easy to have an epidemic. Cao Cao violated the taboo of military action, regardless of the consequences, and rashly used troops, which was bound to pay the consequences. Zhou Yu also exposed Cao Cao's so-called scam of 800,000 troops, pointing out that its actual strength is only 150,000 to 60,000, and it is exhausted after a long battle and its combat effectiveness is not strong. Liu Cong's Jingzhou Army dropped to 70,000 to 80,000 at most, and he was full of doubts and low morale. Although the number of Cao Jun is slightly larger, it is actually not terrible. Zhou Yu resolutely challenged Sun Quan, saying that Cao Cao could be defeated by allocating 50,000 chosen men. Zhou Yu's analysis inspired Sun Quan's spirit and strengthened his confidence in defeating Cao. Sun Quan cut off a corner of the chopping board with a knife and warned the surrender generals that anyone who dared to say hello to Cao Cao again would end up like this. He patted Zhou Yu affectionately on the back and said, "Gong Jin, your words touched my heart. Everyone else is thinking of themselves, only Lu Su and you are United with me. It is still difficult for me to muster 50,000 soldiers at once. At present, I have chosen 30 thousand troops, and the rations of warships are very sufficient. You, Lu Su and Cheng Pu go first, and I will be the backup and continue to plan the hay. Immediately, Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu were appointed as the left and right governors by Sun Quan, and led the army upstream to join forces with Liu Bei Cao Jun. At Fankou (near Hubei), the Jiangdong Navy led by Zhou Yu joined Liu Bei's army. Sun and Liu are about 50,000 people.

Chibi is famous all over the world.

Cao Jun's ships touched each other at the stern and went down the river. In Chibi (now Chichi Mountain, Wuchang County, Hubei Province), I met Sun and Liu Lianjun. Zhou Yu's speculation really came true, and the epidemic became popular among Cao Jun. Many people got sick and their combat effectiveness was greatly affected. As a result, the two armies confronted each other, and Cao Jun lost the first battle. Cao Cao retired to the Wulin in Jiangbei (now the Wulin Collection in the northeast of Honghu County, Hubei Province, on the north bank of the Yangtze River), and camped ashore to confront the allied forces advancing across the river. The stalemate between the two armies is not good for the single-handedly allied forces. Zhou Yu proposed to Huang Gai that the enemy was outnumbered and it was not appropriate to fight the enemy here for a long time. In view of the shortcomings of the northern sergeant who was not used to water warfare, Cao Cao adopted the method of connecting warships end to end, which provided us with the opportunity to defeat him with fire attack. Zhou Yu adopted Huang Gai's suggestion.

According to the plan made with Zhou Yu, Huang Gai wrote to Cao Cao to express his willingness to surrender. Cao Cao didn't see that this was a scam and promised to accept Huang Gai. Huang Gai stuffed dozens of boats with firewood and fish paste in advance and covered them with curtains and flags. Then, he chose a night with a violent southeast wind and led the fleet to Jiangbei. On the water two miles away from the Union Army, Huang Gai ordered the ships to ignite at the same time. The fire is fierce and the ship is like an arrow. Because Cao Jun thought it was surrender and was unprepared, the ship lit their warships. When braking, the fire rose, the flame licked to the other side, and soon extended to Cao Jun's camp. Jiangbei suddenly fell into a sea of fire. The soldiers in Cao Jun are in chaos, and it is difficult to count the number of people who were burned to death and drowned. Cao Cao was caught off guard and had no intention to meet the enemy. He just ordered the burning of unlit warships and inconvenient munitions and fled to the north with the remnants. Under the leadership of Liu Bei and Zhou Yu, the allied forces went hand in hand by land and reached Nanjun. Cao Cao didn't want to stay in Jingzhou for a long time, so he appointed Coss to guard Jiangling and retreat to the north himself. Battle of Red Cliffs and Cao Jun suffered serious losses, and more than half of them died. In addition to being killed in battle, a large number of soldiers died of hunger and epidemics. The victory of the war consolidated the separatist position of Sun Shi regime in Jiangdong area, and also avoided the danger of Liu Bei's downfall. The fame of Battle of Red Cliffs and Zhou Yu spread all over the world. After Zhou Yu arrived in Nanjun, he besieged Jiangling City with tens of thousands of troops. There was plenty of food and grass in Jiangling city, and Coss was well defended, so Zhou Yu could never win. In order to disperse Cao Ren's troops, Zhou Yu sent Gan Ning to the western expedition to Yiling (now Yidu, Hubei). After the success of World War I, Coss really split up and tried to recapture Yiling with an army of five or six thousand. Zhou Yu adopted Lv Meng's suggestion, leaving only a few people to continue to besiege Jiangling and lead a great army to save Gan Ning. On the way, Zhou Yu found a dangerous road between Jiangling and Yiling. He hurriedly sent more than 300 people to block the dangerous road with the cut trees. Zhou Yu rushed to Jiangling and fought fiercely with Coss at the gate that day, and more than half of the besieged Cao army was destroyed. Coss couldn't resist Zhou Yu's offensive, worried that Jiangling would fall, and evacuated to Jiangling overnight. Cao Jun walked into a dangerous road and found himself in trouble: there was a tree in front of him, followed by Zhou Yu. In order to escape for their lives, they had to throw away their horses, cross roadblocks and escape on foot. That night, Zhou Yu killed more than 300 horses of Cao Jun. Soon, Zhou Yu camped on the north bank of the Yangtze River, preparing to besiege Coss for a long time. After more than a year, the two armies have been at loggerheads in Jiangling. The two sides fought many times, each winning or losing. Every battle, Zhou Yu will take the lead and cross the horse into the array. In a melee, he was unfortunately hit by a stream vector in his right arm and was seriously injured. Coss heard that Zhou Yu was seriously injured and could not move easily. Thinking that there was an opportunity, he immediately called an army to scold him. Zhou Yu endured an arrow wound and struggled to go to the camp to boost morale. Coss couldn't get a bargain, so he had to withdraw. In December of the 14th year of Jian 'an (AD 209), Cao Jun, who was guarding Jiangling, suffered heavy casualties, and Coss was forced to give up Nanyang. After Cao Jun was driven out of Jingzhou, Zhou Yu guarded Jiangling as a partial general and the prefect of Nanjun. In the same year, in recognition of Zhou Yu's contribution, Sun Quan specially took Xiajun and other four counties as his own city.

In view of Jing Yi's early death.

Cao Cao's troops retreated northward, and Liu Bei took advantage of the situation to occupy Wuling, Changsha, Guiyang and Lingling counties. Claiming to be General Zuo, he led Jingzhou animal husbandry and camped in Youkou, and was renamed Public Security. In order to consolidate the alliance with Jiangdong, Liu Bei ventured eastward to marry Sun Quan's sister and asked Sun Quan to borrow Nanjun. On the issue of borrowing or not borrowing Nanjun, there are differences within Jiangdong regime. Zhou Yu not only disagreed with Lu Su's borrowing from Nanjun and Liu Bei, but also advocated placing Liu Bei under house arrest in Jiangdong. In the fifteenth year of Jian 'an (AD 2 10), Sun Quan wrote that Liu Bei was a man with great ambitions, and with the help of famous generals like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he could not play for long. Zhou Yu believes that Liu Bei should be taken to Wu County, with more palaces and beautiful women, and his will should be stifled by a corrupt life. Stop and open, dissociate and disperse, each defending its own side. Then send people with their abilities to attack them, and things can be solved. On the contrary, cutting off Liu Bei's land and letting three people get together is like dragon's success. How can you be willing to make things in the pool? Considering that Cao Cao's threat is still serious, Sun Quan needs Sun Liu's alliance in Jiangdong, and Liu Bei is not a person who can be hooked up by beautiful women, so he did not listen to Zhou Yu's advice. When Liu Bei returned to the police station, he said with concern that I almost died at the hands of Zhou Yu. In December of the fifteenth year of Jian 'an, Zhou Yu went to Jingkou (now Zhenjiang, Jiangsu) to see Sun Quan and put forward a plan to seize Yizhou. Yizhou is in the upper reaches of Jingzhou, which is equivalent to today's Sichuan Province. The situation here is dangerous, easy to defend but difficult to attack, and the land is fertile, so it is called the land of abundance. Liu Zhang, an independent and profitable state, is weak and has many internal contradictions. Zhang Lu, which occupied Hanzhong, had fought with Liu Zhang many times. Zhou Yu thought that Cao Cao had suffered a heart attack and was afraid to send troops south easily. The situation in Yizhou is unstable, just taking advantage of the gap to attack. After the occupation of Yizhou, Zhang Lu was destroyed, and then formed an alliance with Ma Chao, who opposed Cao, to form an encirclement of Cao. After Zhou Yu promised to seize Yizhou, he returned to Xiangyang (now Xiangfan, Hubei Province) to fight Cao Cao. He said optimistically that if this plan can be realized, it will be possible to eliminate Cao Cao and unify the North. After obtaining Sun Quan's consent, Zhou Yu immediately set off for Jiangling to make military preparations for seizing Yizhou. But Zhou Yu arrived in Baqiu (Pei Songzhi cloud should be Baling), suddenly became seriously ill and died unfortunately. On his deathbed, he wrote to Sun Quan and recommended Lu Su to take his place. Zhou Yu urged Sun Quan to "nip in the bud and have fun". Besides guarding against Cao Cao in the north, we should also guard against Liu Bei who occupies Jingzhou. This year, Zhou Yu was thirty-five years old.

Sun Quan was deeply saddened by Zhou Yu's death. He said with tears that Zhou Yu had the talent to help me win the world, and now he suddenly died of illness. Who can I rely on? He personally put on plain clothes, presided over the funeral, mourned, and then went to Wuhu to meet Yu's coffin. Later, Sun Quan often reminisced about Zhou Yu's achievements with others, praising "Gong Jin's bravery and humanity" and "I used to go to Cao Cao and expand Jingzhou, all of which were Gong Jin, so I often don't forget". He also said that only Zhou Yu's thoughts are always consistent with his "old-fashioned honor", and no one can compare with Zhou Yu's achievements in Jiangdong regime.

Sun Quan spoke highly of Zhou Yu, who not only praised his great contribution to the establishment of Jiangdong regime, but also showed Zhou Yu's loyalty to Sun Shi brothers. At the beginning of Sun Quan's succession, he was young and had no prestige, and his liegeman was not respectful to him. Zhou Yu, who has made great contributions and mastered the heavy forces, tried his best to establish Sun Quan's prestige. He has repeatedly publicized to his colleagues that Sun Quan can "learn from the sage and learn from the differences" (The Biography of the Three Kingdoms Wu Shu Lu Su), and he is a man who can achieve great things. He respected Sun Quan as the head of Sun Ce and faithfully performed the etiquette and duties of his lieutenants. Before the Chibi War, Cao Cao appreciated Zhou Yu's talent and secretly sent the famous lobbyist Jiang Gan to surrender. After learning about Jiang Gan's purpose, Zhou Yu invited him to visit the camp, inspect the stored grain and armament in the warehouse, and put down his clothes and treasures at the banquet. Then he said to Jiang Gan, "To be a gentleman all my life is to meet a confidant monarch." . From an outsider, I am related to your master, but in fact we are flesh and blood relatives. This kind of bidding, sharing weal and woe, even if the ancient debaters Qin and Zhang Yi resurrected, can't convince me, let alone you, Jiang Gan? Zhou Yu resolutely carried out Sun Quan's orders and never made any discount. He objected to lending the land to Liu Bei, but once Sun Quan made a decision, he immediately gave Liu Bei the land in the south county of Jiangnan. Zhou Yu is open-minded and never envies virtuous people. He pays attention to discovering and cultivating people with real talents and learning, and many political and military talents such as Lu Su and Gan Ning are recommended by him. Cheng Pu followed Sun Jian in his early years and was the founder of Jiangdong regime. He once looked down on Zhou Yu and bullied him many times. Zhou Yu is humble everywhere and never argues with him. Zhou Yu's tolerance finally moved Cheng Pu greatly. The old man admired Zhou Yu more and more, so he became an old friend. Cheng Pu vowed to tell people that associating with Zhou Gongjin is like drinking, which makes people get drunk unconsciously. Zhou Yu is proficient in music. During the booze, he drank a lot, but as long as the band played wrong, he could immediately detect it. As long as you hear it, you must go back and meet the person who sees the problem. Because of Zhou Yu's habit, a common proverb has been formed: "Song is wrong and Zhou Lang cares."

In the fourth year of Jian 'an (AD 199), Zhou Yu followed Sun Ce to attack Wancheng and got to know Gong Qiao of Wancheng. Twenty-four-year-old Zhou Yu married Gong Qiao's daughter for Xiao Qiao. Zhou Yu has two men and one woman. The daughter was hired by Sun Quan as the princess of Prince Sun Deng. Zhou Xun, the eldest son, married the princess, became the commander-in-chief and died young. The second son, Zhou Yin, first worshipped the governor of industry, and later changed the title of township head.
