historical background

The Three Kingdoms period was a period of chaos and separatism, which formed a tripartite situation of Wei, Shu and Wu. It is also a transitional period from the peaceful period of the Han Dynasty to the chaos of the Han Dynasty, which can also be said to be the beginning of great chaos in the Wei, Jin, southern and Northern Dynasties. The three kingdoms were formed in 220 AD, when Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty and was called Emperor Wen of Wei, then Ming emperor, king Qi of Wei, noble Xiang Gong and Yuan emperor; Shu emperor was named Liu Bei and Liu Chan of zhaolie emperor of Shu Han Dynasty; Wu Emperor was named Sun Quan, King Kuaiji, King Jing and Wu Cheng Gong. The three countries coexisted for about 34 years (229-263), but the disputes lasted for 90 years (190-280). Although there were still constant wars in the Three Kingdoms period, it was different from the warlords' scuffle in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, which was a historical progress. It has the nature of a unified war that conforms to the will of the people. The military strength of the three countries is the strongest in Wei, followed by Wu, and the weakest in Shu. Therefore, the great cause of unification was finally completed in Wei and Jin Dynasties. Among the Three Kingdoms, Wu has the longest history of 52 years, Wei 45 years and Shu 43 years. In the first year of Taikang (280), Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty destroyed Wu. So far, the Three Kingdoms era came to an end.

Generally speaking, the territory of the Three Kingdoms includes the north of Wei, the southwest of Shu and the southeast of Wu. The state of Wei set up such states as Si, Yu, Yan, Qing, Xu, Liang, Yong, Ji, you, Bing, Jing and Yang. Among them, Liangzhou led Wuji to protect the western regions; Youzhou was located in the east of Liaoning Province; the southern states were connected with Shu and Wu by Qinling Mountains and Huaihe River. Shu was located in Yizhou, from the Qinling Mountains to the south of the central part of the country. Wu Youyang, Jing and Jiao. In the Three Kingdoms, there are more than 660000 households and 4.4 million households in Wei, 280000 households, 940000 households, 40000 officials and 100000 soldiers in Shu, and 520000 households, 2.3 million households, 30000 officials and 230000 soldiers in Wu.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, due to the continuous change and vacillation of the ruler's regime, the court platform was in disorder, and the political corruption reached the extreme, while the society was full of refugees and riots. With the emergence of a series of internal and external troubles, such as "the rebellion of Shichang servants", "the prison of Danggu", "the yellow scarf incident" and "the rebellion of Dong Zhuo and Li Guosi", the local powerful forces took advantage of the opportunity to increase rapidly, and fought for independence one after another. The rule of the Eastern Han Dynasty survived in name only. For a moment, the whole country fell into civil war and chaos. Yuan Shao occupied Ji, Qing, you and he, and became the largest warlord in the north; Cao Cao occupied Yan and Yu, Han Sui and Ma Teng occupied Liangzhou, Gongsun Zan occupied Youzhou, Gongsun Du occupied Liaodong, Tao Qian, Liu Bei and Lu Bu successively occupied Xuzhou, Yuan Shu occupied Huainan part of Yangzhou, Liu Biao occupied Jingzhou, Liu Zhang occupied Yizhou, sun CE occupied Jiangdong part of Yangzhou, and Shi Xie occupied Jiangdong part of Yangzhou Jiaozhou. In addition, Zhang Lu took charge of Hanzhong area in the form of Taoism and offered sacrifices to the people. Among these separatists, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are the most powerful and active.

Cao Cao took possession of Yanzhou in the early days and reorganized 300000 yellow scarf troops in Qingzhou, which gradually strengthened his power. He also welcomed the Emperor Xian of Luoyang to Xuchang and took the emperor to command the princes. He gained an advantage in politics. In the fifth year of Jian'an (200), Yuan Shao and Cao Cao launched a decisive battle in Guandu. Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao and became the strongest military group in the north. Liu Bei and Sun Quan occupied the southwest and Southeast respectively.

In order to continue his ambition of dominating the world, Cao Cao led his army to the south in the 13th year of Jian'an (208) and occupied Jingzhou, where he confronted Sun Quan in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. At this time, Liu Bei, a descendant of the Han Royal family, who was in exile, also set out to fight against Cao. Liu Bei sent Zhuge Liang, a military strategist, to Sun Quan's office to say that sun sent troops and that sun and Cao Dajun fought in Chibi. Cao Cao was defeated and returned to the north. Liu Bei was able to occupy Jingzhou and then Chengdu. In the 25th year of Jian'an period (220), Cao Pi, the son of Cao, replaced Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty and founded the state of Wei. In the following year, Liu Bei was also called emperor in Chengdu, and his name was Han (generally called Shu or Shu Han). In 229 ad, Sun Quan, the king of Wu, became emperor in Jianye, and became Wu. The era of the separation of the Three Kingdoms officially began. Since then, Cao, sun and Liu have become powerful forces. (the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the beginning of the dispute among the three kingdoms are always regarded as the "Dong Zhuo rebellion" in 190 A.D.)
