Life of the characters

Fight with the strong

Wu Jing was originally a native of Wuxian County, Wujun county (now Suzhou, Jiangsu Province), and later moved to Qiantang, Wujun county (now Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province). Wu Jing's parents died in his early years, and he lived with his sister Wu's family (lady Wu, posthumous title: Empress Wulie). Later, Wu Jing's sister Wu married Sun Jian. Later, Wu Jingchang made great contributions to the battle with Sun Jian and was appointed as the commander of the cavalry. Yuan Shu recommended Wu Jing to be the governor of Danyang, and attacked Zhou Xin, the former governor of Danyang, so he occupied Danyang.

Depending on Yuan Shu

In 191, Sun Jian died. Wu Jing's nephew, Sun Jian's descendants, together with Lu Fan and sun he, took refuge in Wu Jing. Wu Jing joined forces with them to fight against zulang, a mountain bandit in Jingxian county. Zulang failed to escape. At first, Liu Yao served as the governor of Yangzhou, and the state capital was originally located in Shouchun. Yuan Shu had occupied Shouchun, so Liu Yao crossed the river and took qu'a as the capital. At that time, Wu Jingshang was in Danyang, and sun CE's cousin sun Ben was the Duwei of Danyang. When Liu Yao arrived, he drove them all away. Wu Jing and sun Ben retired to Liyang. Liu Yao sent fan Neng and Zhang Ying to settle in hengjiangjin in the east of Milu, while Zhang Ying stationed in Likou to resist Yuan Shu. Wu Jing returned to the north and attached himself to Yuan Shu, who appointed Wu Jing as Zhonglang General of the governor. Wu Jing and sun Ben jointly led the attack in hengjiangjin against fan Neng, Yu MI, Zhang Ying and others, but failed to conquer them for several years. Wu Jing attacked Zuo Rong and Xue Li in moling. At that time, sun CE was injured in niuzhu and the thieves rebelled again. Wu Jing went to attack and captured them all. He followed sun CE to attack Liu Yao, who fled to Yuzhang. Sun CE sent Wu Jing and sun ben to Shouchun to report on Yuan Shu.

Return to sun CE

When Yuan Shu and Liu Bei competed for Xuzhou, they appointed Wu Jing as the governor of Guangling. In the second year of Jian'an (197), Yuan Shu became emperor in Shouchun. Sun CE wrote a letter to admonish him, but Yuan Shu didn't listen. Sun CE cut off the Yangtze River Ferry, which was not connected with Yuan Shu, and sent someone to inform Wu Jing. Wu Jing immediately gave up Guangling and returned to sun CE. At that time, Yan Baihu, a native of Wujun County, led more than 10000 people each, stationed in their own territory. Wu Jing and others want to beat Yan Baihu and others first, and then go to Kuaiji. Sun CE said that Yan Baihu and other people had no ambition, so they could be captured by this. So he led his troops across Zhejiang, occupied Kuaiji and defeated Yan Baihu and others. Sun CE replaced all the original chief officials, took the post of Kuaiji Taishou, and then took Wu Jing as Danyang Taishou. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial court sent King Chen of Yilang to come south with the imperial mission. The above table recommended Wu Jing as general Yangwu and also as a sheriff. In the eighth year of Jian'an (203), Wu Jing died in office. His son, Wu Fen, was granted a military general and became a Marquis of the new pavilion.
