According to the above related historical records, we can see that Zi Tongzhi Bamboo Slips, Lu Su Biography and The History of the Three Kingdoms and Cheng Pu Biography all have clear explanations, but the Biography of the First Master does not. In particular, the chronicle Zi Tongzhi Jian records the time in detail. Thus, we can outline the actual process of "borrowing Jingzhou" as follows:

1 and11In 2008, Zhou Yu's army defeated Cao Cao in Chibi, advanced to Jiangxi, occupied important cities along the Yangtze River (including Yiling, the gateway to Sichuan), surrounded Jiangling and launched a fierce battle with Coss.

2.65438+In February 2008, Liu Bei took the battle of Jiangling, and Zhou Yu had no time to take care of the south, led his troops south and seized the territory of four counties.

3.65438+In February 2009, Cao Ren abandoned Jiangling and withdrew to the north, and Zhou Yu occupied Jiangling, a strategic place. Sun Quan appointed Zhou Yu as the acting satrap of Nanjun (governing Jiangling) and Cheng Pu as the acting satrap of Jiangxia (controlling sand).

4. In the same month, Liu Qi died and Liu Bei was the shepherd of Jingzhou. Zhou Yu ceded the territory of Jiang Nanan in Nanjun to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei set up a public security city in Youkou as his official post. Sun Quan married his sister to Liu Bei.

5. 2 10 12. Liu Bei risked his life to see Sun Quan and asked to take care of Jingzhou. Zhou Yu suggested taking this opportunity to detain Liu Bei to avoid future troubles (of course, he is more opposed to borrowing Jingzhou. It is estimated that Zhou Yu is reporting the attack on Shu in Sun Quan's office at this time.

6. In the same month, it happened that Zhou Yu died of illness. Sun Quan appointed Cheng Pu as the prefect of Nanjun, and Lu Su took over Zhou Yu's army and was responsible for the whole Jingzhou area. Lu Su, who was close to Liu Bei, took over, but advised Sun Quan to lend Jingzhou to Liu Bei, and Sun Quan agreed.

7. In the same month, Cheng Pu retreated from Jiangling to Jiangxia, and Lu Su retreated to Lukou, giving all the important areas along the Yangtze River in Jingzhou (including the line from Jiangling to Yiling) to Liu Bei.

This is the whole process of borrowing Jingzhou. The importance of these places will be discussed in the third question, but these places were taken from Cao Cao by Zhou Yu's troops after a year of bloody fighting (not to mention Battle of Red Cliffs before). It's so easy to lend it to Liu Bei. It should be said that Sun Quan and Lu Su are really interesting and take care of the overall situation. If such a situation does not count as borrowing, then there is no word "borrowing" in the world.
