In the book of Jin, Volume 34, biographies of Yanghu, the emperor had the ambition to destroy Wu. He took Hu as the governor of Jingzhou. During the military and holiday festivals, he was always on horseback and general Wei. Hu led his troops out of the southern part of the town to set up xiangxu, suihuai far and near, which won the heart of Jianghan. Open a big letter with Wu people, and listen to it if you want to go. When the long officials lost their officials, the later generations were evil, and most of them destroyed the old mansion. Hu had a life and death, not by the living room, but by the book. Wu Shicheng's garrison went to Xiangyang for more than 700 Li. Every time it was a Border disaster, Hu was in danger of it, so he tricked Wu to stop. So Shuluo was halved, and more than 800 hectares of land were reclaimed, which made a great profit. At the beginning of Hu, the army did not have a hundred days of food, but in the year of Ji, there were ten years. The imperial edict dismissed Jiangbei Dudu and set nanzhonglang general. All the troops under his command were Yihu in Dongjiang of Han Dynasty and Xia Dynasty. Under the condition that the army is always light and gentle, the body is not covered by armour, and the bell is closed, the bodyguards are no more than ten people, and the government is often abandoned by fishing. In order to come out at night, Xu Yin, the commander of the army, took charge of the camp and said, "the general is in charge of thousands of Li, so you can take it off easily! The safety of a general is also the safety of a country. If Yin dies today, this door will open. After that, it was rare.

Source translation

Emperor Wu had a plan to destroy Wu. He made Yanghu the governor of Jingzhou. He kept the rank of general and general. Yanghu led the army to guard Jingzhou, set up schools, appeased and educated the people far and near, and won the love of Jianghan people. They were honest with the Wu people, trusted each other, and those who surrendered were willing to leave. At that time, there was such a custom in Jingzhou: after the governor lost his official position, he was taboo in his successor's life and destroyed the houses of the old government. Yanghu thought that life and death had nothing to do with houses, so he ordered the area under his jurisdiction to prohibit this practice. The garrison of stone city in the eastern Wu Dynasty was 700 li away from the boundary of Xiangyang, and often harassed the border of Jin Dynasty. Yang Hu thought it was a big trouble, so he designed to let Wu withdraw the garrison. As a result, the number of soldiers patrolling the border of Jin Dynasty was reduced by half, and the reduced soldiers were used to reclaim more than 800 hectares of land. When Yanghu first came to Jingzhou, there was no grain in the army. In the later period of his town, he had grain and grass for ten years. The emperor ordered the removal of Jiangbei Dudu, set up nanzhonglang generals, and allocated more troops of Jiangbei Dudu to Yanghu. In the army, Yanghu often wore light fur, ribbons and no armor. There were no more than a dozen guards in his mansion. However, they often neglect political affairs because of hunting and fishing. Once, when he wanted to go out at night, Military Secretary Xu Yin held a halberd against the gate of the camp and said, "the general is in charge of a territory of ten thousand li. How can he be so indulgent? The safety of the general is also the safety of the country. Unless I'm dead, the door won't open tonight. " As soon as Yang Hu's face changed, he apologized to Xu Yin and seldom went on a trip since then.
