Life

[edit]

Information about Ju Fu is recorded at the end ofWang Ping's biography in theRecords of the Three Kingdoms(Sanguozhi), seemingly because they were from the same commandery and shared a similar reputation.

Ju Fu was born in Hanchang, Baxi Commandery ( Brazil quận ), which is present-dayBazhong,Sichuanand may have been a foreigner from thelocal tribesin the area. As a warrior, he was known to be loyal and brave. Moreover, he is also described as lenient and generous. He made several achievements in battles. Therefore, his reputation, deeds and rank were second to those ofWang Ping.The highest position he reached was General of the Left ( tả tướng quân ). He was also enfeoffed as Marquis of Dangqu ( đãng cừ hầu ).[1]

Chang Qu,who wrote extensively about the history of theSichuanregion in theChronicles of Huayang(Huayang Guo Zhi), also recorded that during the late times ofShu Hanwhen veteran officers,Zhang YiandLiao Huarespectively served as Left and Right General of Chariots and Cavalry, there was a saying among the common people of Shu: "Before we had Wang Ping and Ju Fu, now we have Zhang Yi and Liao Hua." indicating that just like Liao Hua and Zhang Yi careers mirror themselves, so were Ju Fu and Wang Ping's careers.[2]
