| Post = Marquis Zhuang }} Xu Huang (died 227),〔 courtesy name Gongming, was a military general serving under the warlord Cao Cao in the late Eastern Han dynasty. He later served in the state of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms period under the first two rulers, Cao Pi and Cao Rui, before his death at the start of Cao Rui's reign. Xu Huang is best noted for breaking the siege at the Battle of Fancheng in 219 by routing the enemy commander Guan Yu on the field. Chen Shou, who wrote Xu Huang's biography in the historical text ''Records of the Three Kingdoms'' (''Sanguozhi''), named Xu one of the Five Elite Generals of his time, alongside Zhang Liao, Yue Jin, Yu Jin and Zhang He.〔(評曰:太祖建茲武功,而時之良將,五子為先。于禁最號毅重,然弗克其終。張郃以巧變為稱,樂進以驍果顯名,而鑒其行事,未副所聞。或注記有遺漏,未如張遼、徐晃之備詳也。) ''Sanguozhi'' vol. 17.〕 ==Early life and service under Yang Feng== Xu Huang was from Yang county (楊縣), Hedong commandery (河東郡), which is located southeast of present-day Hongdong County, Linfen, Shanxi. He served as a minor official in the Hedong commandery office in his youth. Later, he became a subordinate of Yang Feng from the White Wave Bandits – originally a sect of Yellow Turban rebels that rose up in Xu Huang's hometown in Shanxi – after the bandits raided Hedong and Taiyuan (太原) commanderies in 188. Over the years, the leaders of the White Wave Bandits had been holding different attitudes toward the Han central government. Yang Feng submitted to Dong Zhuo, a warlord who controlled the central government in the early 190s. Xu Huang later followed Yang Feng to quell some remnants of the Yellow Turban rebels, and was appointed as a Cavalry Commandant (騎都尉) by the Han imperial court.〔(徐晃字公明,河東楊人也。為郡吏,從車騎將軍楊奉討賊有功,拜騎都尉。) ''Sanguozhi'' vol. 17.〕 Dong Zhuo was assassinated in 192 and was succeeded by his subordinates Li Jue and Guo Si. In 195, internal conflict broke out between Li Jue and Guo Si, who started warring with each other in the streets of Chang'an, the Han capital. Yang Feng and Xu Huang were Li Jue's subordinates at the time. In that year, Xu Huang joined a plot against Li Jue – he convinced Yang Feng to escort Emperor Xian from Chang'an back to the old capital Luoyang, which by then was much dilapidated. In Luoyang, when conflict broke out between Yang Feng and Dong Cheng, the latter summoned the warlord Cao Cao to help him deal with his rival. In early 196, Cao Cao arrived in Luoyang and escorted the emperor to Xu (許; present-day Xuchang, Henan), which was designated as the new seat of the Han central government. When Xu Huang urged Yang Feng to join Cao Cao's forces, Yang wanted to heed his advice but refused in the end. In late 196, Cao Cao attacked and defeated Yang Feng. Xu Huang switched his allegiance to Cao Cao.〔(李傕、郭汜之亂長安也,晃說奉,令與天子還洛陽,奉從其計。天子渡河至安邑,封晃都亭侯。及到洛陽,韓暹、董承日爭鬬,晃說奉令歸太祖;奉欲從之,後悔。太祖討奉於梁,晃遂歸太祖。) ''Sanguozhi'' vol. 17.〕 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「Xu Huang」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
