<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > the eighth major event of Quan Qun - the Battle of Qianpi</h1>
In April of the fourth year of Chiwu (241), Sun Quan launched an unprecedented large-scale cut against Wei.
The Jin Dynasty says: Wu will quan Kou Qianpi, Zhu Ran and Sun Lun 50,000 people besieged Fancheng, Zhuge Jin and Bu Qi Kou Zhongzhong.
Qianpi was in Lujiang County, not far from Hefei; Fancheng, needless to say, was a strategic point in Jingzhou; In Zhongzhong was west of Xiangyang, and the Weibei general Zhuge Ke attacked Lu'an. The four-way army attacked in Jingyang Erzhou, and Sun Quan's action this time was determined to win, at least Hefei and Fancheng had to achieve results on both sides.
Quan Chun was the governor of the Eastern Route Army, but this battle was not mentioned in his biography. It should be emphasized that the governor of Quan chun was formally appointed by Sun Quan, and among the so-called four governors of Eastern Wu, only Lu Xun really served as the governor of the capital, and the other three positions were not called "governors of the capital". Therefore, it was obvious that Quan Chun, the Governor of The Great Capital, had not achieved the same feats as his predecessors, so that Chen Shou even felt that it was not an honorable thing, so he skipped it in ben. What the hell is going on, let's talk.
In the two directions, among the four major armies, Quan Chun was the first to go to war with the State of Wei. Against him was Sun Li of the Wei state of Yangzhou. The place name of Qianpi was derived from water conservancy, which is where the very important water conservancy projects in the Huai River Basin are located, which were built in the Chu State during the Spring and Autumn Period, and later Cao Cao advocated the development of Tuntian in the Huai River Basin, and the importance of Qianpi was continuously strengthened. When it comes to the fuse of Wu Guo's initiative, part of it is because the State of Wei continued to reclaim Tuntian in the Huai River Valley, and Deng Ai, who was then Shang Shulang, was responsible for developing Tuntian with remarkable results. If The State of Wu sat idly by, the strength of the State of Wei would increase rapidly, and Sun Quan would have to destroy Tuntian. Therefore, the first place where the Four-Way Army fell into Wei was in Qianpi.
Quan Chun came up and dug up the Qianpi, and the flood flooded a large area of fertile land. Then he set fire to Ancheng, where tun tianhu lived, and moved the people to Eastern Wu. This time, Quan Chun did not let go of the people like he had done before, and presumably the former romanticism was gradually replaced by reality.
Quan Chun then fought a decisive battle with Sun Li, at this time many of Sun Li's soldiers were busy with farm work on vacation, and the number of people on duty was very small. Quan Chun's troops were superior, but Sun Li personally fought, and the two sides fought from early morning to night, and the battle was extremely fierce. Just when Sun Li was about to be unable to hold on, the Wei general Wang Ling led reinforcements to arrive, and Quan Chun was unable to fight any longer and had to retreat.
Wang Ling's fresh army changed the tide of battle, pursuing the Wu army all the way, the exhausted Wu army suffered heavy losses, and Zhonglang killed more than ten generals, including Qin Huang. At the critical moment, Zhang Xiu and Gu Cheng stepped forward and led their troops and horses to block the pursuing troops, so that the Wei army stopped pursuing and the two sides fought again. Soon QuanXu's son Quanxu and nephew Quanduan also came with troops and repelled Wang Ling's pursuers together.
"The Biography of Gu Tan" says: Wei Bing took advantage of the victory to trap the five battalions of Qin Huang's army, and Hugh and Chengfen attacked it. He was stationed in Wei Division. Shi Qunzi Xu and Duan Yi were generals, and because the enemy was holding on, they attacked, and the Shu army retreated.
Quan Chun was defeated by Wang Ling here, and the situation in the other three roads was different, but all the four major armies retreated within two months, and the vigorous cause of Wei wei came to an abrupt end. In fact, it was not because Wu Jun's performance was too bad, mainly Sun Quan's favorite son, the crown prince Sun Deng, who died in May, and Sun Quan was greatly hit.
The other performances of the various ways will not unfold, only quan zhen. Throughout the entire process of the campaign, quan chun broke the embankment and burned the city, and the people were relocated, and the performance was still OK. A day of fierce fighting with Sun Li also gained the upper hand, but was picked up by Wang Ling when he was exhausted. Although the loss of more than ten generals, but finally able to repel Wang Ling's pursuit, indicating that the entire army did not hurt the bones, the loss is acceptable.
Victory or defeat is a common affair of soldiers, and since Quan Chun did not make any major mistakes, then defeat was not a crime. Zhang Xiu, Gu Cheng, Quan Xu, and Quan Duan, who resisted the Wei army, should be rewarded for their battle exploits. However, Zhang Xiu and Gu Cheng were worshipped as miscellaneous generals, but Quanxu and Quanduan only received a partial general and a general, respectively. Four people fight the enemy together, how can the reward be so different? Just because Zhang Xiu and Gu Cheng arrived first, Quanxu and Quanduan arrived later?
It's really because it's first come, first served. Is this reasonable? This is not reasonable. After all, how the four people behave, who is more courageous and kills more enemies, these factors must be considered. This involves who will record and report the merits of the battle. Although Quan Chun was the governor of the Battle of Qianpi, he obviously could not ask for merit for his son and nephew himself, first, in the final analysis, he lost the battle and lost his own bottomlessness, and second, he could not sell himself and boast and settle down to the truth.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > the ninth major event of Quan Chun - involved in the party dispute</h1>
The "Wu Lu" says: Quan Zhen's father and son repeatedly said that the Battle of Qianpi was a deceitful increase in the merits of Zhang Xiu and Gu Cheng, and Xiu, Cheng, and Gong were in harmony. Hugh sits in prison, the power is Tan's sake, Shen Yin is indecisive, and wants Tan Xie to release him.
The person who reported the results of the battle to Sun Quan was The Dianjun Chen Ke, and it turned out that this guy colluded with Zhang Xiu and Gu Cheng, and deliberately reported more on the battle achievements of Zhang Gu and Gu and underreported the battle achievements of the whole family. When did Quan Chun suffer such grievances? Most of his life was smooth sailing, the grand ma ye, the governor of the capital, how could this Zhang Xiu and Gu Cheng dare to do such a deceitful thing? Of course, the Quan Family was angry, repeatedly publicly claiming that they had been wronged and were calculated by a group of villains.
Three years later, under the unremitting report of the whole family, Sun Quan finally obtained conclusive evidence after conducting an investigation, so he sent Zhang Xiu and Gu Cheng to prison. The three fathers and sons of Quan Chun were out of bad breath.
Then again, how could anyone dare to humiliate him in such a way in the position of Quan Chun? Let's see who the people who have been in love with him are.
Zhang Xiu was the second son of Zhang Zhao, and Gu Cheng was Gu Yong's grandson. Zhang Zhao and Gu Yong needless to say, they are all Eastern Wu pillar-like figures. And there is another person behind these two people, Gu Cheng's brother Gu Tan. Zhang Xiu, Gu Tan, and Zhuge Ke and Chen Biao, these four people were known as the "Four Friends of the Prince" of Eastern Wu, and were close aides of the former crown prince Sun Deng. After Sun Deng's death, Sun He was made crown prince, and Gu Tan, Zhang Xiu, and Gu Cheng all joined the new crown prince. In contrast, there was also the Lu Wang Sun Ba faction. Because Sun Quan adopted an ambiguous attitude between his two sons, many ministers felt that King Lu was the candidate to eventually inherit the throne, which led to the confrontation between the princelings and the Lu king's party, known in history as the "Dispute of the Two Palaces".
Regarding the details of the dispute between the two houses, since Lu Xun's chapter has not yet been written, we will leave it to that side. All in all, Quan Chun and his son Quan Xu and nephew Quan Duan are all factions of the Lu Wang Party, and as for the reason, it is necessary to ask Quan Chun's good wife Sun Luban. The mother of this "princess Quan" was Empress Bu, while the mother of Crown Prince Sun He and King Sun Ba of Lu was Lady Wang (Sun Ba's mother is disputed). Later, Sun Quan wanted to make Lady Wang empress, but Sun Luban's mother was only posthumously crowned empress, plus Sun Luban had previously seen Lady Wang unfavorably, and now he was even more jealous that Lady Wang was favored more than her mother. As a result, sun Luban was determined to disrupt the succession to the throne and let Sun He and Sun Ba's brothers fall on the wall. Specifically, Sun Luban took advantage of Sun Quan's favor for himself, as well as the power of the two major families of the Bu family and the whole family, so that the harem conflict spread to the entire Eastern Wu court.
Sun Luban
Quan Chun couldn't help his wife's pillow wind, and the Quan clan naturally stood in the camp of King Lu. Thus there was a confrontation with Zhang Xiu, Gu Cheng, and Gu Tan, and only then did Zhang Xiu and Gu Cheng lie about military merits, and Quan Chun's father and son fiercely reported it.
There was no such thing as Gu Tan here, Gu Tan had already replaced his grandfather Gu Yong at that time, and acted as an agent of Shangshu shi as an agent of Tai chang, his status was very high, and his future was also very good. As one of the four surnames of Wu County, the Gu family is of course also a very important local clan force. The younger brother Gu Cheng and Zhang Xiu were thrown into prison for lying about military merits, and the older brother Gu Tan was also jointly and severally responsible. Sun Quan did not want to take Gu Tan's knife, so he said to Gu Tan privately: "When you go to the upper court, you will apologize to Quan Chun on behalf of the Gu family, and I will personally preside over justice, so that both of you can have steps, and this matter will pass." ”
When the group of courtiers ascended to the court, Sun Quan asked Gu Tan according to the script. As a result, Gu Tan did not develop according to the script, but instead shouted directly: "Your Majesty, are there so many rumors!" "Good fellow, don't say give face to the Quan Chun family, this Gu Tan didn't even give Sun Quan's face, and then someone below said that Gu Tan dared to confront the emperor, which is a great disrespect, and should be beheaded according to the law."
The "Wu Lu" says: Hugh is sitting in prison, the power is Tan's reason, Shen Yin is indecisive, and wants to make Tan Xie release him. and the assembly, to ask Tan, Tan did not thank, but said: "Your Majesty, rumors are happy!" ”
In front of the group of ministers, especially the two factions were making a fierce fight, Sun Quan could not be indifferent, Gu Yong could not kill, but together with Zhang Xiu and Gu Cheng, they packed and distributed to Jiaozhou.

<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > the tenth major event of Quan Chun - to fight lu xun</h1>
According to comprehensive historical data, in fact, Quan Chun only passively counted into the Lu Wang Party because of his wife Sun Luban, and did not intervene too much in the battle for the throne, but his second son Quan Ji actively participated in it and tried to frame the prince.
The Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms and the Biography of Lu Xun contains: "The Book of Sun and the Book of Qun yue: "Qing does not teach the day (磾), and Su Liu Aji will eventually cause disaster for the foot portal." "He does not accept it, and he does not take it anywhere.
The meaning of this historical data is that Lu Xun wrote to Quan Chun to persuade him to emulate the Western Han Dynasty's famous minister Jin Riju Dayi and kill his son who had committed wrongdoing, so as to avoid the disaster that the Quan Chun clan would bring in the future. At that time, Lu Xun was far away in Jingzhou, and even he knew that Quan Chun's second son had misbehaved in order to support King Lu, which showed that the two parties were already very fierce at that time.
Originally, Quan Chun had great respect for Lu Xun, but when he was persuaded or even threatened not to kill his son, the whole family would bring disaster, and Quan Chun still could not accept it. Therefore, there was also a contradiction between Quan Chun and Lu Xun.
However, it is not possible to say that Quan Chun himself was deeply involved in the conspiracy of the Lu Wang Party, or that Quan Chun instructed his son to come forward. There is no such evidence in the historical records, and in the end, the Quan Chun family was later implicated except for the execution of Quan Ji. In addition, even father and son do not mean that they are on the same side. Another Eastern Wu chancellor, Zhuge Ke, was a faction that supported the crown prince, while his eldest son Zhuge Ke joined the Lu king's party. To what extent is the father-son conflict? Later, Sun Quan discovered that Zhuge Qi had behaved inappropriately, so he asked Zhuge Ke to discipline his son well, and the original text of the history book "Ling Geng". How did Zhuge Ke educate? "Kill it".
The tiger poison did not eat children, Zhuge Ke actually poisoned his eldest son, Zhuge Ke later fell to power, but did not end well.
In the ninth year of Chi wu (246), Quan Chun was promoted to the position of Right Grand Sima and Left Army Division. Party strife aside, Quan Chun was very modest and easy-going, and was willing to listen to the kind advice of others, and never quarreled with anyone.
The Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms and the Biography of Quan Chun contains: He is obedient, good at accepting the rules, and his words are not cut.
Chen Shou deliberately pointed out in the biography of Quan Chun that his personality was very humble, which may be strange to some people. Didn't Quan Chun get into a fight with Zhang Xiu and Gu Tan because of Qianpi's war exploits? Wasn't it because he was protecting his son and had a vendetta against Lu Xun? Can this also be considered "obedient"? The author does not believe that there is any contradiction. These two things are all to break through the bottom line of Quan Chun, one is to be robbed of battle merits, the other is to be persuaded to kill, and everyone will be very angry.
In his later years, Sun Quan acted arbitrarily and arbitrarily, and was no longer willing to adopt the opinions of his subordinates as he was when he was young. He planned to send troops to occupy Zhuya and Yizhou, that is, Hainan and Taiwan, and first ask Quan Chun for advice. Quan Chun replied, "With our country's Heavenly Power, it is naturally easy to take Zhuya and Yizhou. However, these places are already distant and exotic, across the strait, the water and soil are miasma, and our soldiers and civilians will inevitably produce diseases in the water and soil when they go there, and then infect each other and sacrifice a large number of soldiers and civilians. In doing so, we can only lose manpower in vain, and there is no actual gain to speak of, and I ask Your Majesty to think twice. ”
Sun Quan did not listen and insisted on sending troops to march. As a result, nine times out of ten of the soldiers died of the plague, which completely confirmed Quan Zhen's words. Sun Quan deeply regretted it, and later mentioned this matter to Quan Chun, in order to find some face for himself, saying that at that time, only Quan Chun opposed it, and everyone else was silent, and Sun Quan did not listen to Quan Chun's opinion. I don't know if this is the truth, but Quan Chun replied very bluntly: "At that time, I just said what I really thought, and this is the truth, if the group of ministers does not advise, the ministers think that this is unfaithful." It can be seen that Quan Chun still attaches great importance to the overall situation in his work, and he dares to give advice from beginning to end, and will not be afraid of angering Sun Quan because of fear.
In the twelfth year of Chi Wu (249), Quan Chun died, and his third son Quan Yi inherited the title.
Perhaps Quan Chun was lucky that he died without seeing the final outcome of the Ninomiya dispute. The next year the party struggle reached its climax, the crown prince Sun He was exiled, the Lu king Sun Ba was given death, both sides were defeated, Sun Liang was made the new crown prince, and Quan Zhu, the second son quanyu who did not kill him, was executed by Sun Quan.
Sun quan
As for the prosperous Quan clan, in 258 AD, during the wei conquest of the eastern general Zhuge Birthday Shouchun, many of the quan clan's sons were sent to Shouchun to support, but the rear family members were persecuted by the powerful minister Sun Qi, so the family fled to the State of Wei, and Quan Yi and Quan Duan in shouchun City led their troops to surrender to the State of Wei. Less than ten years after Quan Chun's death, the entire family was uprooted, and the survivors basically turned to the State of Wei, so later generations usually did not put the Quan clan in when talking about the Eastern Wu clan, which was lamentable.
