Introduction to Lu Su’s Tomb: Lu Su, a famous general of Soochow, was a native of Dongcheng, Linhuai. He once led more than a hundred of his subordinates to follow Zhou Yu to the south of the Yangtze River, and was later highly regarded by Sun Quan. In the 13th year of Jian'an (208 years), Cao Cao led his army south and seriously threatened the Soochow regime. He and Zhou Yu resolutely took the lead in the battle and proposed a strategy of uniting Liu Bei to fight against Cao, which was adopted by Sun Quan. He was both civil and military, benevolent and loyal to the emperor, and took the initiative to go to Jiangxia to ask Zhuge Liang to cross the river; then he and Zhou Yu won the victory in the Battle of Chibi and consolidated the Soochow regime. After the Battle of Chibi, it was Lu Su who advocated lending Jingzhou to Liu Bei. Legend has it that Cao Cao was writing, and when he heard it, he was so frightened that his pen fell to the ground. After Zhou Yu's death, he led his army on his behalf, continued his rapprochement with Liu Bei and fought against Cao Cao, and was awarded the title of General Hengjiang. After Lu Su died, Zhuge Liang paid filial piety to him specifically to miss the friendship they forged during their fight against Cao Cao.
Lu Su’s tomb still existed in the Qing Dynasty, and some Zhenjiang poets visited his tomb from time to time to reminisce about the past. For example, the poet Zhang Chonglan of the Qing Dynasty wrote the poem "Lu Su's Tomb", praising this Soochow hero that "the great cause was determined from behind, and the monument was laid out in front of the tomb." Later, due to the war, the original cemetery has been lost. However, there is also a tomb of Lu Su in Zhenjiang. It was originally located in the middle of the playground on the University Hill of No. 1 Middle School. It was convenient to move the tomb here in modern times, and it was together with the tomb of Taishi Ci, the fierce general of the Eastern Wu Dynasty. Adjacent.
