In 2 10 BC, Zhou Yu led his troops to attack Xichuan. Arriving in Baqiu City, he was wounded by an arrow and died young at the age of 36.

Before his death, Zhou Yu suggested that Sun Quan should take Yizhou (Sichuan) and get Sun Quan's consent, but when he returned to Jiangling to prepare for sending troops, he died in Baqiu (now Yueyang, Hunan).

When Zhou Yu's coffin was transported back to Wu Jun, Sun Quan personally went to Wuhu to meet him, and all funeral expenses were borne by the state. After the sun rose, he said to his ministers, "Without Gong Jin, I can't be an emperor."
