The rainwater has flowed in, and the water level will subside if we linger on for days. Destined to marry the Crown King made her own name and history. Lü Cong passed on the marquis title to his younger brother Lü Mu (呂睦) when he died. Sun Quan became more worried as Lü Meng's condition deteriorated over time. Lü Meng gained 600 households from Xunyang County (尋陽縣; southwest of present-day Huangmei County, Hubei) for his tuntian system and had 30 more subordinates placed under his command. Ok Mother. He shed tears after that. Sun Quan then said, "I'm not saying that I want you to take up Confucian studies and become a scholar-official. Within a few years time, Cao Cao's military prowess would have increased significantly, so we should eliminate them soon." When Sun Quan came to inspect Lü Meng's unit, he was so impressed that he placed more soldiers under Lü Meng's command, thus saving Lü Meng's troops from being merged into another unit. Liu Bei's territories in Jing Province had completely fallen under Sun Quan's control. The fictional character Ryomou Shimei of the anime and manga series Ikki Tousen is based on Lü Meng. When Lü Meng met Hao Pu, he revealed the truth to the latter, clapped his hands and laughed. That's the way to secure total victory." [Sanguozhi 18], The territorial dispute between Sun Quan and Liu Bei was eventually resolved when both sides agreed to divide Jing Province between their respective domains along the Xiang River. He was also granted the title of "Marquis of Chanling" (孱陵侯) and awarded 100 million coins and 500 jin of gold. Seventeen of us (Pastor Gong Shengliang, Brother Xu Fuming, Brother Hu Yong, Brother Gong Bangkun, Sister Li Ying, Sister Sun Minghua, Sister Xiao Yanli, Brother Dong Daolai, Brother Yi Chuanfu, Brother Qiu Chunyi, Brother Du Qingfeng, Brother Fu Shijun, Sister Cao Hongmei, Sister Xiang Fengping, Sister Liu Xianzhi, Sister Meng Xicun, and Sister Li Yingping) were detained at the No. This aunt was really like a child. Sun Quan also sent an urgent order to Lü Meng, ordering him to give up on Lingling and lead his troops to Yiyang to assist Lu Su. He then asked Deng Xuanzhi to help him persuade Hao Pu to give up on Lingling. Lü Meng was awarded 600 taxable households from Xunyang (尋陽) and given 30 more subordinates under his command. When Gan Ning sent a messenger to Zhou Yu's camp to request for relief forces, most of Sun Quan's officers saw that they did not have enough men to spare, so they refused to help Gan Ning. This was because when he was a kid, he almost died drowning. [Sanguozhi 9], The Jiang Biao Zhuan gave a slightly different account of the meeting between Lu Su and Lü Meng. Back then, my dad and your dad were best friends, the marriage was decided before they were born and they hoped that the descendants would all get married throughout the years. Why do we not attack Guan Yu instead? He sent messengers to meet Lü Meng, who brought them on a tour of the city. We can retreat via the water route after that. Lü Meng's mother sighed and let him have his way. Why build a dock?" He also offered 1,000 jin of gold as a reward to any person who could cure Lü Meng. You should visit him soon." Sun Quan felt that Lü Meng's advice was appropriate and heeded it. Lü Meng wrote to the Administrators of the three commanderies, asking them to submit to Sun Quan, and they all agreed, with the exception of Lingling's Hao Pu (郝普). He shouldn't be seen in the same light now as he was in the past. You have achieved victory but haven't received any reward yet, so how can you leave now?" Upon his return, Lü Meng was promoted to "Lieutenant-General" (偏將軍) and appointed "Prefect of Xunyang" (尋陽令). [Sanguozhi zhu 7], Lü Meng rejected the coins and gold, but Sun Quan insisted that he accept. Liu Meng Qi reluctantly paired up with Yan Ao Xue, reason being her friend Ruo Lian in sympathy had paired up with the non stop crying Tan Xin. Zhu Guang developed the area for agricultural use, while bribing bandits from Poyang County to cause trouble in Sun Quan's territories. However, he is conceited and thinks highly of himself. Sun Quan and his subjects were celebrating their conquest of Jing Province, with Lü Meng receiving the highest honour. Guan Yu's troops increased in numbers after his victory so he lacked food supplies. When that happens, our troops will sail along the river, travelling day and night, and swiftly attack the weakly defended territories. [Sanguozhi 31], Guan Yu fell for the ruse and withdrew the backup forces and advanced towards Fancheng. In the year 200, after Sun Ce was assassinated, his younger brother Sun Quan succeeded him as the warlord ruling the territories in the Jiangdong region. Zhou Yu proposed to Sun Quan to let Lü Meng take charge of Xi Su's troops. “Meng Xu? Sun Quan then said:[Sanguozhi zhu 1] .mw-parser-output .templatequote{overflow:hidden;margin:1em 0;padding:0 40px}.mw-parser-output .templatequote .templatequotecite{line-height:1.5em;text-align:left;padding-left:1.6em;margin-top:0}, "I am not saying that I want you to take up Confucian studies and become a scholar-official. When he defeated and captured Guan Yu, he did better than Lu Zijing. [Sanguozhi 37], In his younger days, Lü Meng was not competent in reading and writing. Sun Quan wanted to construct a dock at Ruxu, but his subordinates said, "We should land on the other side of the river and attack the enemy, then return to our ships. Have you made any contingency plans to deal with unforeseen circumstances?" Sun Quan remarked: "A hundred birds of prey are not comparable to one osprey." I assure you that Ling Tong can defend our current position for at least ten days. Lü Meng was aware of Guan Yu's military prowess and intentions of seizing Sun Quan's territories in Jing Province, and that Guan was in a strategic position on the upstream of the Yangtze River. [Sanguozhi 1], At the time, an official despised Lü Meng for his age, and often insulted him with words such as: "What can he do? Guan Yu's troops increased in numbers after his victory so he lacked food supplies. Around that time, Cao Cao's general Zhang Liao was leading reinforcements from Hefei to help Zhu Guang, and when he reached Jiashi (夾石), he heard that Huan had been captured by the enemy, so he withdrew his troops. This is the way to secure total victory." Lü Meng wrote a secret letter to Sun Quan:[Sanguozhi 23], "You can order Sun Jiao to guard Nan Commandery, Pan Zhang to station at Baidicheng, and Jiang Qin to lead 10,000 marines to sail along the river and attack any enemy position. If we lose and the enemy closes in, and we don't have time to retreat to the riverbank, how can we even board our ships?" They were delighted to see what they had been hoping for. Have you made any contingency plans to deal with unforeseen circumstances?" His behaviour would only result in him feeding himself to the tigers." When she wanted to punish him, Lü Meng said: "It is difficult to survive in poverty. "Senior Brother Meng and Senior Sister Liu are here!" When Lü Meng heard about it, he collected funds to purchase elaborately designed armour for his troops. [Sanguozhi 30], Gan Ning, a general under Sun Quan, was notorious for his violent and murderous ways, and Lü Meng was unhappy with him. He engaged Meng Da, who ran away before the conflict had well begun. "[Sanguozhi 30], Sun Quan agreed to Lü Meng's plan and played along by openly approving his request to return to Jianye for medical treatment.

Lü Meng was granted the counties of Xunyang (尋陽) and Yangxin (陽新) as his taxable fiefs. Lü Meng was also appointed as the Administrator (太守) of Hanchang Commandery (漢昌郡; southeast of present-day Pingjiang County, Hunan) and received Xiajun (下雋), Liuyang (劉陽), Hanchang and Zhouling (州陵) counties as his personal marquisate. He then ordered Lü Meng to attack the bandits. Lü Ba was succeeded by his elder brother Lü Cong (呂琮) after his death. Lü Meng was aware of Guan Yu's military prowess and his intention of seizing Sun Quan's territories in Jing Province. Although the incident was over, Mi Fang still feared Guan Yu. [Sanguozhi 5], Later in 208, Lü Meng participated in the Battle of Red Cliffs, in which the allied forces of Sun Quan and Liu Bei defeated a much larger army led by the northern warlord Cao Cao at Wulin (烏林; in present-day Honghu, Hubei). In one incident, Lü Meng executed one of his soldiers for stealing from a civilian household, despite that man being an old acquaintance of his, and he shed tears after that. Chapter 915: Liu Meng Ying (Part 2) The anger in Chu Tian Zhe’s eyes was gradually replaced by a smile. He also visited Lü Meng's mother and left after befriending Lü Meng. [Sanguozhi 8], The Jiang Biao Zhuan (江表傳) mentioned that Sun Quan once told Lü Meng and Jiang Qin: "Both of you are now commanders so you should enrich yourself with knowledge." However, Lü Meng supported the idea of building a dock, as he said, "Battles are unpredictable and we may not always win. The former is used to describe an unlearned person[3] while the latter means to look at a person in a different light, especially after the person has improved remarkably. Lü Meng warned Sun Quan: "The lands in Wan County are very fertile so the enemy's numbers will rise after they gain a bountiful harvest. Brother you are drunk. By then, the enemy would have reinforced their defences and their relief forces would have arrived, and we cannot defeat them. Zhu Guang developed the area for agricultural use, while bribing bandits from Poyang (鄱陽) to serve as spies within Sun Quan's territory. Everyone followed the sound and saw a darkly tanned and thin child standing in front of a large black Cherokee car and excitedly waving at Tao Mu. “Senior Brother Meng and his wife are indeed powerful.” Now that you're going to be his opponent, you should have some measures to deal with him." Later, with encouragement from Sun Quan, Lü Meng took up scholarly pursuits to improve himself, gradually becoming a learned and competent military leader. He wanted to see Lü Meng but felt that it was too troublesome to keep moving around, so he had a hole drilled into the wall to observe Lü Meng's room. Besides, Guan Yu and his lord are untrustworthy so you shouldn't be too faithful towards them. [Sanguozhi 28], Lü Meng's marquis title was inherited by his son Lü Ba (呂霸). Lü Meng showed understanding towards Mi Fang and convinced him to surrender as well. Before the battle, Sun Quan summoned all his generals and asked them for their opinions. Lü Meng frequently met the official and he killed the latter one day when he could no longer control his anger. Lu Su left his seat, came closer to Lü Meng, placed his hand on his shoulder and said, "Lü Ziming, I never knew you had such insights until I came here." Sun Quan led his forces to resist the enemy and placed Lü Meng in charge of the army. [Sanguozhi 17], When Lü Meng pacified Changsha, he passed by Ling County (酃縣; east of present-day Hengyang, Hunan) and met Deng Xuanzhi (鄧玄之), an old friend of Hao Pu. ", Lü Meng also convinced Zhou Yu to send 300 men to block the enemy's retreat route with giant logs. Liu Feng pursued hotly to seven miles. Lu Su placed his hand on Lü Meng's back and said, "I heard that you were previously a mere warrior. [Sanguozhi 39], Sun Quan once said: "A person improves as he grows older. However, Lü Meng disagreed: "It will take several days to build the hills and replenish our equipment. But now, you've taken up scholarly pursuits and you're no longer that Meng under Wu." Lü Meng warned Sun Quan, "The lands in Huan are very fertile so the enemy's numbers will rise after they gain a bountiful harvest. [Sanguozhi 31], Sun Quan once said: "A person improves as he grows older. When Sun Quan came to inspect Lü Meng's men, he was so impressed that he placed more soldiers under Lü's command, thus saving Lü's troops from being merged into another unit. Fierce generals like Gan Ning are hard to come by. "[Sanguozhi 33]. [Sanguozhi 9], The Jiang Biao Zhuan (江表傳) recorded that Sun Quan once told Lü Meng and Jiang Qin: "Both of you are commanders now so you should enrich yourself with knowledge." Lü Meng, however, insisted on saving Gan Ning. Sun Quan praised Lü Meng for his bravery and appointed him as the Administrator of Lujiang. "[c] He heeded Lü Meng's suggestion. "[Sanguozhi zhu 2], Lü Meng was so inspired by Sun Quan's words that he began to study diligently and acquire more knowledge. Mengde agrees that he is already old but he never gives up on learning. The morale of Zhou Yu's army improved greatly, so they crossed the Yangtze River, set up a garrison near the enemy base, and then engaged Cao Ren's forces in battle. When she wanted to punish Lü Meng, the latter said, "It is difficult to survive in poverty; if we can prove ourselves through hard work, then wealth would come eventually. You should start off with Sun Tzu's The Art of War, the Six Secret Teachings, Zuo Zhuan, Guoyu and the Three Histories. Sun Quan heeded Lü Meng's advice and treated Gan Ning generously. There was one incident where Lü Meng was so furious with Gan Ning that he wanted to kill the latter. Liu Qiyuewho had flame wings spread out behind herwas very eye-catching. Young Master of Meng’s Group?” Speaking of Liu Xing, Xiao Yi is a little impressed. He wanted to see Lü Meng but felt that it was too troublesome to keep moving around, so he had a hole drilled in the wall to observe Lü Meng's room. [Sanguozhi 19], In 217, when Lu Su died, Lü Meng took over command of the former's troops, numbering over 10,000, and moved west to the garrison at Lukou (陸口; in present-day Jiayu County, Xianning, Hubei). Lü Meng was a native of Fupo (富陂), Runan (汝南郡), which is located southeast of present-day Funan County, Fuyang, Anhui. He recognised that the temporary stability and truce between Sun Quan and Liu Bei would not last long. [Sanguozhi 29], In his younger days, Lü Meng was not competent in reading and writing. "[notes 1] He then followed Lü Meng's suggestion. Within a few years time, Cao Cao's military prowess would have increased significantly, so we should eliminate them soon." Liu Bei returned to Jing Province when he heard of Lü Meng's advances and he stationed at Gong'an (公安; present-day Gong'an County, Jingzhou, Hubei) while ordering Guan Yu to lead an army to take back the three commanderies. “Go and bother Brother Meng.” Fei Liu made a questioning noise. By 215, Sun Quan's forces had failed to breach Hefei's walls and had also sustained heavy casualties in the earlier engagements with the enemy. You shouldn't view him in the same light now as you did in the past. Deng Dang was shocked to see his teenage brother-in-law in his unit, so he scolded Lü Meng and warned him to stop doing that.
