Sun Quan missed 5 talents in his life, except for the "phoenix" Pang Tong, who are the other 4 people

Sun Quan's military talent is very inferior, during the Battle of Hefei, his 100,000 troops were defeated by Zhang Liao's 800 soldiers and horses, but Sun Quan has the talent to know and employ people, he is good at discovering, promoting, and reusing talents, which also makes Sun Quan one of the winners in the late Han Dynasty.

During Sun Quan's reign, he discovered and recruited many talents, such as Lu Xun and Zhuge Jin, but he also missed 5 top talents in his life.

1. Pang Tong

Pang Tong, nicknamed Feng Xiao, was a top advisor during the Three Kingdoms period.

Pang Tong was Zhou Yu's staff at first.

During the Battle of Chibi, Pang Tong came to Cao Ying alone and persuaded Cao Cao to connect the warships with iron cables, so that it was like land, which could not only solve the situation of seasickness of soldiers, but also facilitate the training of soldiers. Cao Cao took Pang Tong's advice. Soon after, when Zhou Yu used fire to attack, Cao Cao's warships were connected by iron cables, and it was difficult to escape, and all of them were buried in the fire, which caused Cao Cao to suffer heavy losses and suffered a heavy defeat to Zhou Yu.

Shortly after the Battle of Chibi, Zhou Yu died of illness.

Sun Quan disliked Pang Tong's ugly appearance and was unwilling to reuse Pang Tong. At that time, the princes of the world, Liu Zhang, Zhang Lu and others had mediocre abilities, and it was difficult to become a great tool. Cao Cao cherishes talents and is the strongest, but during the Battle of Chibi, Pang Tong has already offended him. Pang Tong could only go to Liu Bei.

After arriving in Jingzhou, Liu Bei also judged people by his appearance, disliked Pang Tong for being ugly, and just let him make a county order under his own command. Half a year later, Liu Bei discovered Pang Tong's talent and immediately changed his wrong practices and began to reuse Pang Tong. Pang Tong offered Liu Bei three strategies, the upper, middle, and lower, to help Liu Bei capture Liu Zhang's Yizhou. With Pang Tong's help, Liu Bei captured Yizhou, but Pang Tong was killed in battle during this period.

Second, Liaohua

Liao Hua was Guan Yu's deputy general.

In 219, Guan Yu launched the Battle of Xiangfan in order to support the Han Dynasty, hoping to capture Xiangyang and Fancheng, which were controlled by Cao Wei. Guan Yu flooded the Seventh Army, captured Yu Ban and Pang De, and shocked Cao Wei. After Cao Wei was in existential danger, Sima Yi persuaded Cao Cao to unite with Sun Quan to fight against Guan Yu.

Cao Wei was destroyed by Guan Yu, and the next place for Liu Bei to be eliminated was himself, which made Sun Quan unable to sit idly by and watch Cao Cao be destroyed by Guan Yu.

At the same time, Liu Bei and Sun Quan were allies, and he did not dare to help Cao Cao attack Guan Yu because of the relationship between his allies. This made Sun Quan in a dilemma, and he sent someone to ask his son to marry Guan Yu's daughter, taking the opportunity to test Guan Yu's attitude towards Jiangdong. Who knows, Guan Yu didn't take Jiangdong seriously at all, and directly said "The tiger girl can marry a dog" and rejected Jiangdong, which made Jiangdong people angry. Sun Quan sent Lü Meng to cross the river in white clothes and seize Jingzhou. Guan Yu was in turmoil because of the loss of Jingzhou, and after being defeated by Cao Wei, he could only be forced to withdraw his troops.

On the way to withdraw the army, Guan Yu was surrounded and intercepted by Jiangdong's soldiers and horses, and because Liu Feng of Shangyong did not save him, Guan Yu was captured and killed by Jiangdong.

Liao Hua is the lord of Guan Yu, after Guan Yu was defeated and killed, in order to save his life, he pretended to surrender Jiangdong and was named Taishou by Sun Quan.

Liao Hua has always been loyal to Liu Bei. Surrendering Sun Quan was forced to do so. Soon after, in order to avenge Guan Yu, Liu Bei led his troops to attack Wu. Liao Hua deceived everyone by cheating his death, and then took his mother to the west day and night to go to Shuhan. Liao Hua met Liu Bei in Zigui, and Liu Bei thanked Liao Hua for his loyalty and named him the Taishou of Yidu County. After returning to Shu Han, Liao Hua followed Zhuge Liang and Jiang Wei's Northern Expedition, and made great achievements for Shu Han. Liao Hua was an important general in the late Shu Han period. In 263, after the fall of Shu Han, he died of illness on his way to Cao Wei.

3. Forbidden

After arriving at the front line of Xiangfan, Pang De was not familiar with the climate and terrain of Xiangfan and other places, so he stationed the army in low-lying places. happened to encounter heavy rain for several days, the water of the Xiangjiang River rose sharply, Guan Yu took the opportunity to dig the embankment of the Xiangjiang River, flooded the forbidden 7th Route Army, and captured them all.

After being captured alive, Pang Dening died and was beheaded by Guan Yu, Yu Ban surrendered to Guan Yu in order to save his life, but Guan Yu looked down on Yu Ban and still locked him in prison. After Guan Yu was captured and killed by Jiangdong, Yu Ban was rescued by Jiangdong. At this time, Sun Quan had the opportunity to persuade him to surrender to the ban and make him submit to him. However, Sun Quan did not attach importance to Yu Ban, connived at Yu Tuo's humiliation of Yu Ban, and returned him to Cao Wei.

After arriving in Cao Wei, Yu Ban was also humiliated and ridiculed by Cao Pi and Cao Wei's ministers, causing him to die of shame and grief soon after.

Fourth, Huaxin

Hua Xin has outstanding talents, and Sun Ce has always regarded him as a guest.

After Sun Ce's death, Cao Cao, in order to weaken Sun Quan's strength, summoned Hua Xin to Xuchang in the name of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty. Sun Quan refused to let Hua Xin go, but Sun Quan's strength at that time was weak and he did not have the strength to fight Cao Cao. Hua Xin said to Sun Quan: "Because you can obey the emperor's orders, you can form a friendship with Cao Gong, but this friendship is not strong. Wouldn't it be better for me to go over there and deepen it for you? It's not a good idea for you to keep me today to keep me as a useless thing. In order not to offend Cao Cao, Sun Quan could only let Hua Xin leave.

After Hua Xin arrived at Cao Wei, he served as the military officer, Shangshu, and waiter, and later replaced Xun Yu as Shangshuling, and was an important minister of Cao Wei.

Fifth, Zhang Yi

Zhang Yi was a minister under Liu Zhang. In the battle of Sichuan, Liu Bei defeated Liu Zhang and captured Yizhou, and Zhang Yi also chose to submit to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei appointed Zhang Yi as the Taishou of Bajun, the General of Sijin Zhonglang, and the Taishou of Yizhou. On the way to Ba County to take office, Zhang Yi was caught by Yonghong, a native of Yizhou, and escorted to Sun Quan. In 223, after Liu Bei's death, Zhuge Liang sent Deng Zhi as an envoy to Jiangdong to repair the alliance with Jiangdong. At the same time, Deng Zhi also took the opportunity to propose to Sun Quan to release Zhang Yi. In order not to affect the alliance with Shu Han, Sun Quan returned Zhang Yi.

After arriving in Shu Han, Zhang Yi served as the prime minister's mansion to join the army, Yizhou Zhizhong and other positions, and was quite reused by Zhuge Liang. In 230, Zhang Yi died of illness.
