}} Liu Fu (died 208), courtesy name Yuanying, was a politician who lived in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. He served as the Inspector of Yang Province. Liu Fu became known for having turned Hefei into a stronghold for enacting colonization, irrigation, and the building of schools. ==Life== Liu Fu's ancestral home was in Xiang County, Pei (northwest of present-day Suixi County, Anhui). During the final years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he fled to Yang Province (揚州) to escape the chaos. In early 196 he persuaded the warlord Yuan Shu's generals Qi Ji (戚寄) and Qin Yi (秦翊) to defect to another warlord Cao Cao, who held the post of Excellency over the Masses (司徒) then. Cao Cao was pleased and employed Liu Fu as an assistant official. In 200, the warlord Sun Ce sent Li Shu (李述), Administrator of Lujiang (廬江), to kill Yan Xiang, the Inspector (刺史) of Yang Province. Mei Qian (梅乾), Lei Xu (雷緒) and Chen Lan amassed thousands of men in the Huai River region. At that time, Cao Cao was busy fighting his rival Yuan Shao at the Battle of Guandu and could not find time to pacify the area. Cao Cao heard that Liu Fu could stabilize the southeast (referring to the Huai River and Jiangdong regions) so he appointed Liu as the Inspector of Yang Province. Upon taking office, Liu Fu ordered the construction of Hefei fortress (合肥城) to serve as the administrative center of Yang Province (previous administrative center was at Liyang 歷陽). Concurrently, he pacified Mei Qian, Lei Xu and Chen Lan, bringing them under control and making use of them to help him stabilize the area. Liu Fu governed the area well and many people who previously fled from the area during the period of chaos now returned. With an increase in population, Liu Fu had more schools built and promoted agriculture and irrigation. He also constructed defensive infrastructure and stored up military supplies for defense purposes. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Liu Fu (Yuanying)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
