Zhu Yi (Eastern Wu)

Zhu Yi (died 26 September 257 A.D.[1]), courtesy name Jiwen, was a military general of the state of Eastern Wu during the Three Kingdoms period of China.

Zhu Yi personally led 2,000 troops to destroy all seven of Wen Qin's encampments, decapitating several hundred men in the process, and earning him a promotion to Lieutenant-General (偏將軍).

The Wu emperor Sun Quan remarked afterward that Zhu Yi was even braver and sturdier than he had heard.

[4] In 257, when the Wei general Zhuge Dan started a rebellion against the Wei regent Sima Zhao, the Wu regent Sun Chen dispatched an army of 30,000 to aid Zhuge Dan in Shouchun (present-day Shou County, Anhui), and dispatched another 30,000 troops led by Zhu Yi to a county just south of Shouchun to act as the rear guard.

Later, the Wei officer Hu Lie (胡烈) led 5,000 men to launch a sneak attack on Zhu Yi's baggage train and managed to burn down his supplies.
