Sun Quan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Sun Quan (Traditional Chinese: 孫權; Simplified Chinese: 孙权; Hanyu Pinyin: Sūn Quán; Wade-Giles: Sun Chuan) (182 - 252), son of Sun Jian, courtesy name Zhongmou (仲謀), formally Emperor Da of (Eastern) Wu (東吳大帝, literally "the grand emperor") was the founder of Eastern Wu, during the Three Kingdoms period, in China. |
 | | According to later tradition, Sun Quan was born on Sunzhou ("Sun Island", later Wangzhou - "King's Island"), an islet at the intersection of the Fuchun River and one of its tributaries. |
 | | Sun was ecstatic, and created Gongsun the Prince of Yan and granted him the nine bestowments, and further sent a detachment of 10,000 men by sea north to assist Gongsun in his campaign against Cao Wei, against the advice of nearly every single one of his high level officials, particularly Zhang Zhao. |
