[4] Prior to 220, Sun Shao was promoted to Lieutenant-General (偏將軍) and appointed as the Administrator of Guangling Commandery (roughly, the parts of modern Jiangsu and extreme eastern Anhui provinces which lie south of the Huai River and north of the Yangtze).
[6] According to Zhang Bo's (張勃) Record of Wu (吳錄), during the withdrawal, Sun Shao ordered his subordinate officer Gao Shou (高壽) and others to take some 500 of their most valiant warriors and make a night raid on the Wei lines in an attempt to capture Cao Pi alive.
Gao Shou and his troops managed to capture several carriages in Cao Pi's escort, but the man himself eluded them.
Far from Wu's northern frontier, the area never fell under their control; granting the title was merely a political statement of Sun Quan's assumed imperial power.
In 234, during the fourth Battle of Hefei, Sun Shao and another general, Zhang Cheng, were tasked with leading a Wu army to attack Guangling and Huaiyin (淮陰).
[11][12] Sun Kai was additionally enfeoffed as the Marquis of Danyang, a position which began to pay benefits following the conquest of Wu by Jin in 280.
