From the perspective of the shape of the tomb, it belongs to the early style of the Sun Wu regime in the Three Kingdoms period, but it is impossible to infer the owner of the tomb based on the style alone. During the excavation of the M3 burial chamber, an unexpected thing happened, the archaeologists found four pieces of voucher bricks, when they cleaned up the voucher bricks, it revealed clear handwriting, according to the information on the bricks, experts determined that the owner of the tomb is Sun Wu's famous general Ding Feng.
Ding Feng was a famous general of the State of Wu during the Three Kingdoms period, and he was brave and good at war when he was a teenager, and he made many military achievements. According to historical records, in 252 AD, the Wei state sent Zhuge Shi and Hu Zong to lead 70,000 troops to besiege the Wu state of Dongxing, the state of Wu sent Zhuge Ke to lead the army to meet the battle, but the heavenly gong was not beautiful, the war was not yet carried out, it fell goose feathers heavy snow, the Wei army saw the weather, thought that the State of Wu did not dare to easily send troops, so held a banquet, Ding Feng learned the news, he thought it was a good opportunity for a surprise attack, immediately asked Zhuge Ke for orders, ready to lead three thousand people and horses to go out.
Before the expedition, Ding Feng did a thing of "great wisdom and great courage", he actually let the soldiers take off their armor and go to battle shirtless, wei saw that the Wu army did not even have weapons, did not take it seriously at all, just because it was too light enemy, the Wu army actually annihilated the Wei army in one fell swoop, after the victory of the war, Ding Feng's life was hung up, and he became the most important military general of the Eastern Wu regime.
During the reign of Emperor Wu Jing and Sun Xiu, Ding Feng used a clever trick to get rid of the Eastern Wu power minister Sun Qi and help Sun Xiu regain power, sun Xiu, in addition to rewarding Ding Feng with rich material rewards, also crowned him as a great general, and the most powerful thing is that Ding Feng served four generations of Eastern Wu emperors throughout his life.
