Lü Bu, Chen Gong, Gao Shun, and others all sent Xu xu and then buried him.
Gao Shun was a general under Lü Bu's command, and his supervision "trapped camp" was known as "a well-equipped fighting tool, and the attack was broken", and he became famous for a while.
Gao Shun did not pass on the test, and the beginning and end of the examination were lost, but there were many relevant records. Whether in the Book of Wei, the Book of later Han or the Book of Heroes, you can see his active figure.
Recently, I searched for historical materials and unexpectedly found that the "Old Biography of Chen Liuqi" compiled by the Taiping Imperial Records clearly recorded Gao Shun's table characters and places of origin - Gao Shun zi filial piety, Yanzhou Chen Liuren.
Gao Shun, the word filial piety father, Dun Hou Shaohua. --"The Old Biography of Chen Liuqi"
According to the context of this entry in the Taiping Imperial Records, it involves Cui Yu, Lü Bu and Cao Cao, which can be seen as telling the story of the end of the Han Dynasty.
Judging from the composition of the table characters of "filial piety", "filial piety" and "shun" are opposite, and it can be seen that this historical material does refer to Gao Shun himself.
Gao Shun's Chen Liu origin is a particularly crucial message. Because Chen Liugao was Yuan Shao's wife.
If what the Taiping Imperial Records say is true, then Gao Shun's death is most likely due to his background. In other words, Gao Shun, as a foreign relative of Yuan Shao, had to die.

The fact that the Gao clan can marry the Yuan clan shows that the two families are of high status and are not inferior.
The Yuan clan of Runan, "four generations and five dukes, the power of the world", was the first echelon of the giant clan at the end of the Han Dynasty.
Yuan Shao, as Yuan Cheng's step-heir, had the status of "Emperor Xiaozong", so the object of marriage could not be a small family.
Yuan Shi "Four Generations and Five Dukes, Overwhelming the World"
Among the Gao clan, Gao Gan served as Yuan Shao's governor and the governor of the prefecture, while Gao Rou "raised the clan to Hebei" and attached himself to Yuan Shao.
(Gao) Rou congruent brother (Gao) Gan, Yuan Shao's nephew also, in Hebei Hu (Gao) Rou, Rou Ju Zong congzhi. --The Book of Wei, The Biography of Gao Rou
Gao Gan and Gao Rou were both nephews of Yuan Shao, and Gao Gan was able to go out of the town of Yizhou and compete with Yuan Shao's sons, which showed that Chen Liugao's position in the Hebei clique was quite prominent.
(Yuan Shao) produced his eldest son (袁) Tan as Qingzhou (青州), and his middle son (袁) Xi as Youzhou (幽州), and his nephew Gao Gan as Hezhou (合州). --Book of Wei, Biography of Yuan Shao
According to Gao Shun's "Old Biography of Chen Liuqi", he is undoubtedly of the same ethnic group as Gao Rou and Gao Gan. According to Gao Rou's record as "Chen Liuyuan", Gao Shun should also be born in ChenLiuyuan County.
Gao Rou zi Wen Hui, Chen LiuYuan also. --The Book of Wei, The Biography of Gao Rou
From this, Gao Shun's peculiarities in Lü Bu's camp can be explained.
(1) Infantry and cavalry
Lü Bu was born in a state, the army was mainly cavalry, and the tactics of warfare were mostly "surprise charge".
In battles such as the defeat of Zhang Yan in Montenegro (193) and the destruction of Cao Cao in Yanzhou (194), Lü Bu used this method of warfare many times.
(Lü) Bu sent troops to fight, first riding against the Qingzhou soldiers. Qingzhou soldiers ran, Taizu Chen chaos. --Book of Wei, Chronicle of Emperor Wu
Lü Bu (Lü Bu) was often close to Cheng Lian, Wei Yue, and others who were trapped in Chen, and then broke (Zhang) Yan's army. --The Biography of Lü Bu of Wei
His generals, such as Cheng Lian, Wei Yue, Hou Cheng, and others, were also "riding generals".
Hou Cheng, a general on horseback, sent the guests to herd fifteen horses, and the guests drove the horses away. --"Spring and Autumn in Kyushu"
Only Gao Shun was an infantry general. The "trapped camp" under his command, from the description, is obviously a pawn, which is very different from the knights of the state.
(Gao Shun)'s more than 700 soldiers, numbered a thousand, the armor and fighting tools are all well-trained, and every attack is indestructible, called trap Chen Camp. --Heroes
If you notice that Gao Shun was born in Yanzhou and was in the hinterland of the Central Plains, then the tactics of warfare were different from those in the border areas (and liang areas), and it was reasonable.
(2) Alcoholism and abstinence from alcohol
Most of Lü Bu's generals were drunkards. For example, the riding general Hou Cheng, after recapturing the stolen military horses, "brewed five or six wines by himself and congratulated the generals."
(Hou) Cheng Zi will ride away, and the horse will be returned. The generals were in good hands, He (Hou) Cheng, (Hou) Cheng brewed five or six wines, and hunted more than ten pigs. --"Spring and Autumn in Kyushu"
The "generals" invited by Hou Cheng undoubtedly included Cheng Lian, Wei Yue, Wei Xu, Song Xian, and others.
Hou Cheng brewed five or six wines and invited the generals to drink
Gao Shun was an outlier, "innocent and majestic, not drinking alcohol and not being gifted." He was incompatible with lü Bu's generals and had a high degree of self-discipline.
(High) obedient to man, innocent and majestic, not drinking alcohol, not being fed. --Heroes
If you notice that Gao Shun was born into chen liuming, it is not difficult to see that his tutoring and quality are very different from those of the officers in the state.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="12" > Gao Shun's special position in Lü Bu's camp</h1>
Lü Bu was a native of Wuyuan prefecture, and Gao Shun was a native of Yanzhou. When the intersection of the two began, the history books do not contain it, but Gao Shun's return to Lü Bu is a relatively abnormal thing.
Because Chen Liugao was a foreign relative of Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao was Lü Bu's sworn enemy.
After Lü Bu "died in Kwantung" in the second year of Chuping (192), he successively attached himself to Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, and also assisted Yuan Shao in suppressing the Black Mountain Army.
However, Yuan Shao was jealous of Lü Bu's bravery and actually took advantage of the night to murder, which resulted in Lü Bu escaping, and the two of them have since made a quarrel.
(Yuan Shao) undertook the system, so that (Lü Bu) led the division to be a lieutenant, sent a strong soldier to send (Lü) Bu, and the Yin envoy killed him. --The Book of the Later Han Dynasty
During the Xingping period (194-195), when Lü Bu "rebelled against Yanzhou", Yuan Shao sent Zhu Ling and others to the south to help Cao Cao quell the rebellion. It can be seen that the relationship between Yuan Shao and Lü Bu can be described as the same as water and fire.
The shogunate (referring to Yuan Shao) only had the righteousness of the strong and weak branches, and did not ascend to the rebel party, so he revived the aid of Jingjia and swept to the expedition, the golden drum sounded, and (Lü) Buzhong was depressed. - "Yuzhou for Yuan Shao"
Therefore, as Gao Shun's wife clan, why he defected to Yuan Shao's sworn enemy Lü Bu became a matter of considerable exploration.
Judging from the time records, Gao Shun is attached to Lü Bu, and there may be three time nodes.
The first is the first year of the First Ping Dynasty (190).
Yuan Shao made enemies with Dong Zhuo in the sixth year of Zhongping (189), left Luoyang for Bohai, and around the time he passed through Chen Liu, took his family and wives with him, and placed them in the seat of Liu Dai in Yanzhou, that is, DongpingGuo.
According to the Biography of Cheng Yu, at least at the end of the second year of Chuping (191), Yuan Shao's family remained in Dongping as hostages.
It was Shi (Liu) Dai who was close to Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zhan, and (Yuan) Shao Ling's wife lived in (Liu) Dai. --"Wei Shu Cheng Yu Biography"
According to the background of the era of the "Kwantung Army" and the "Liangzhou Army" in the Central Plains in the early years of Chuping (190-191), Gao Shun may have defected to Lü Bu during this period.
Because Lü Bu had been active in the Yuzhou and Yanzhou regions, suppressing the Kwantung Qunxiong until April of the second year of Chuping (191), Luoyang was burned and entered Chang'an in the west.
In the summer of April of the second year of Chuping, (Dong) Zhuo returned to Chang'an. --Book of Wei, Chronicle of Emperor Wu
(Dong Zhuo) also made Lü Bufa the tombs of the emperors, and the secretary of state had gone down to the tomb to receive their treasures. --The Book of the Later Han Dynasty, The Biography of Dong Zhuo
The second is the fourth year of Chuping (193).
At this time, Lü Bu had already left Yuan Shao and was attached to Hanoi.
Zhang Yang is a native of Yunzhong prefecture and a "state native" of Lü Bu. During this period, Lü Bu reconciled with the Guanzhong court and was made The Taishou of Yingchuan by Li Daiyao, balancing Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.
(Zhang) Yang then wai xu (郭) 汜, (Li) Dai, nei shi protect (Lü) Bu. Feng and Dai zhi even issued a great edict, with (Lü) Bu as the Taishou of Yingchuan. --Heroes
Li Dai used Lü Bu as the Taishou of Yingchuan
It should be noted that Zhang Yang had joined Yuan Shao with the Southern Xiongnu Yufuluo in the early years of Chuping (190-191), but Yufuluo soon rebelled, holding Zhang Yang hostage to Liyang, where he was defeated by Yuan Shao. Later, Zhang Yang defected from Yuan Shao and accepted Dong Zhuo's performance as the Taishou of Hanoi, the King of Tunbing.
Yuan Shao to Hanoi, (Zhang) Yang and (Yuan) Shaohe... Shan Yu (Zhang) Yang zhi (Wei Commandery) LiYang attacked the Liao general Geng Zhijun and revived the masses. (Dong) Zhuo made (Zhang) Yang the general of Jianyi and the Taishou of Hanoi. --The Book of Wei and the Biography of Zhang Yang
Since Zhang Yang had an old grudge with Yuan Shao, he was naturally not tolerated by Yuan Shao. Therefore, it was logical that he was willing to take in Yuan Shao's sworn enemy Lü Bu.
Gao Shun, as the wife of the Yuan clan, may have been one of the generals who rebelled with Zhang Yang in the first place, so at this time (193-194) he was attached to Lü Bu.
The third is the first year of Xingping (194).
The Xingping period (194-195) was the outbreak of the Yanzhou Rebellion, yanzhou "a hundred cities rebelled, only three counties", Cao Cao almost became a lost dog.
The leaders of the rebel army were Yingchuan Taishou Lü bu, Yanzhou prefecture official Chen Gong, and Chen Liu taishou Zhang Mi.
Gao Shun, as a Retainer of Chen, had not gone to Jizhou to defect to Yuan Shao at that time, then there was a high probability that he would have rebelled with Taishou Zhang Mi.
This speculation is by no means fanciful, and there is other supporting evidence.
If you pay attention to Lü Bu's two candidates who stayed behind in Xia Pi in the fourth year of Jian'an (199) (Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Chen Deng), you would be surprised to find that Gao Shun was a Yanzhou Chen Liu, Chen Gong was a Yanzhou Dongjun, and none of them were from Hezhou.
Lü Bu wanted to order Chen Gong and Gao Shun to defend the city, and he would ride off the Taizu Grain Road. --Heroes
The truth is obvious.
Chen Gong zi gongtai, Dongjun people also. --"Dictionary"
Most of the Yanzhou people under Lü Bu's command were the culprits who had participated in the Yanzhou Rebellion (194-195), and it was impossible for them to return to Cao Cao.
For example, Chen Gong resolutely refused to surrender Cao because of his "deep guilt". Therefore, the city was defended by Yanzhou people, and there was no mistake.
(Lü) Bu wanted to surrender (Cao Cao), Chen Gong, etc. thought that they were deeply guilty and depressed. --The Biography of Lü Bu of Wei
This is also true of actual historical developments.
In the end, it was the "old people" led by Hou Cheng, Song Xian, and Wei Xu who betrayed Lü Bu, while the Yanzhou people Chen Gong and Gao Shun maintained discipline.
In March, Taizu Wei was divided up and down, and he bound Hou Cheng, Song Xian, and Wei to the Chen Palace and lowered them. --The Biography of Lü Bu of Wei
Cao Cao besieged Pi, Lü Bu rebelled, and Chen Palace surrendered
Because of Gao Shun's in-law relationship with Yuan Shao, his position in Lü Bu's camp was very delicate. This also fully explains why "Lü Bu knows his loyalty and cannot use it."
(Gao) Shun Every Advice (Lü) Bu... Bu knew his loyalty, but he could not use it. --Heroes
Because of Gao Shun's sensitive origins, Lü Bu could not be completely assured, and he was always worried about his special relationship with Yuan Shao, and eventually developed to the point of "capturing Gao Shun's troops to benefit Wei". Because Wei Xu and Lü Bu had "outer and inner relatives", that is, Lü Bu's relatives.
(Lü Bu) continued to have relatives outside and inside, and the generals of The (Gao) Shun were taken to continue with (Wei). --Heroes
Gao Shun is to Lü Bu what Liu Ye is to Cao Cao. Although Liu Ye, the "Patriarch of the Han Dynasty", continued to show loyalty, he was suspected by three generations of Cao's grandchildren. This is not because of sincerity, but because of the bondage of origin.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="12" > Gao Shun's death</h1>
Cao Cao's beheading of Gao Shun, regardless of Yuan Shao's affection, is related to the background of the times.
In February of the fourth year of Jian'an (199), Xia Pi fell and Lü Bu was killed. At the same time, a large general who was killed was Chen Gong and Gao Shun.
Chen and Gao were both from Yanzhou.
It is not difficult to imagine that Gao Shun was most likely a general who had participated in the Yanzhou Rebellion (194-195), so he was deeply hated by Cao Cao.
Because of Gao Shun's in-law relationship with Yuan Shao, it is reasonable that Cao Cao should be able to throw rat traps. But if you pay attention to the background of time, you will find that at that time (199), Cao Cao had already broken with Yuan Shao.
In April of the same year (199), two months after the deaths of Lü Bu and Gao Shun, chaos broke out in Hanoi. Xiao Gu received Zhang Yang's inheritance and led his people to surrender to Yuan Shao, but was intercepted and killed by Cao Ren and Shi Zhuo, and was killed and wounded.
Yang ugly kills (Zhang) Yang in response to Taizu. (Zhang) Yang will be gugu, kill (Yang) ugly, and bring his people to the north to join Yuan Shao. Taizu sent Shi Zhuan to attack, broke it in The Dog City, cut it (眭) Solid, and reaped all his people. --The Book of Wei and the Biography of Zhang Yang
In other words, the Hanoi region, which intended to annex Yuan Shao, was forcibly intercepted by Cao Cao. After Cao Cao committed the crime, he also took charge of Hanoi Taishou and openly provoked Yuan Shao. It can be seen that Cao Cao at this time has completely torn his face with the Hebei side.
(Cao Cao) took the Wei species as the Taishou of Hanoi, and belonged to Hebei Province. --Book of Wei, Chronicle of Emperor Wu
Therefore, whether Gao Shun was a member of Yuan Shao's wife clan or not, Cao Cao no longer cared. Maybe even because of Gao Shun's special status, Cao Cao deliberately wanted to kill him.
Cao Cao captured Gao Shun, killed him, and sent Xu County
Yuan Shao's wife clan was once more difficult in Cao Ying.com.
For example, Gao Shun's fellow gao rou, because he was Yuan Shao's nephew, was deliberately granted a "dangerous position" by Cao Cao (stabbing the history of the assassination order), that is, he intended to kill him under the pretext of "unfavorable handling".
(Gao) Rou returned to Taizu, who wanted to be reprimanded for the incident, thinking that he had stabbed Ling Shi. --The Book of Wei, The Biography of Gao Rou
"Assassination" is a rather sensitive position, an important tool for rulers to "do nothing wrong". For example, when Cao Pi killed Ding Yi, he granted Ding Yi a "stab rape" and hoped that Ding Yi would commit suicide to apologize.
(Cao Pi) wants to cure (Ding) Yi of sin, turns (Ding) Yi into a right thorn and treacherous, wants (Ding) Yi to cut himself, and Yi cannot. - "Wei Luo"
It can be seen that the Chen LiuGao clan, in Cao Cao's eyes, is a family that "must be eliminated and then quickly". When Gao Shun was killed, it was logical.
In the face of death, Gao Shun was silent and calm, probably realizing that he had no chance of surviving no matter what.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="12" > summary</h1>
At the end of the Han Dynasty, Gao Shun's troops can be regarded as a clear stream.
His organization was extremely disciplined, such as the arm's fingers, which was very different from the "wine-colored disciples" under Lü Bu's command. If you can notice Gao Shun's famous origins, all this is not difficult to understand.
Although due to the limitations of historical data, it is impossible to determine the specific time and reason for Gao Shun's defection to Lü Bu, he shined in the Hezhou clique by virtue of his personal qualities, and even rose all the way to the "Governor", and even after encountering "capturing troops", he was still trusted by Lü Bu. It can be seen that its "innocence and majesty" are worthy of the name.
Gao Shun's epigraphy and place of origin are completely lost in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Pei Notes, but are included in the "Heroes' Records" anthology recorded in the Taiping Imperial Records, which shows that whether it is Wang Shen, Wang Yue or Chen Shou, they are particularly secretive about Gao Shun's "resume".
In the "Biography of Lü Bu", Gao Shun, Chen Gong and Lü Bu were treated exactly the same, and they were executed, and then sent their heads to Xu County.
(Lü) Bu and (Chen) Gong, (Gao) Shun, etc. all sent Xu to the head and then buried it. --The Biography of Lü Bu of Wei
Such a hasty torture can not be said to be impatient.
According to the custom, prisoners should be sent to Xu County first, and then tortured. For example, when Lü Bu sent Yuan Shu's emissary Han Yin, he sent "living people" to Xu County to be tortured.
(Lü Bu) the woman is already in Tu, chasing back the marriage, sending the weapon to Han Yin, and the head of Xu City. --The Biography of Lü Bu of Wei
Among the three people killed, Lü Bu and Chen Gong were the culprits of the Yanzhou Rebellion (194-195), and Gao Shun, who was also from Yanzhou with Chen Gong, could be imagined.
It can be speculated that during the Yanzhou Rebellion, Gao Shun was probably also one of the "first rebels". Coupled with Gao Shun's sensitive identity as "Yuan Shao's wife", it is not appropriate to write straight, so it is deliberately ignored by Cao Wei historians.
Judging from Gao Shun's words and deeds, his quality and education were extremely high, his command ability was outstanding, and he repeatedly defeated famous generals such as Liu Bei and Xiahou Huan, and shocked the world; it was a pity that he followed the wrong lord and finally ended with hatred.
Although history cannot be assumed, if Gao Shun can survive by chance, his meritorious deeds will not be under Zhang Liao.
Gao Shun was killed, and there was no camp in the world. Shame!
