Right General, this is a military general official position produced during the ancient Warring States period. Their tasks covered the defense of the capital and the defense of the border. In the official system of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the status of the right general was second only to the senior generals such as the Great Sima, the Great General, the Hussar General, the Che General, and the Wei General. At the end of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, many generals and even princes were given the title of right general or lower-level position. Below, we will list the eight most famous right generals of the Three Kingdoms period.

1. Zhang He. After Cao Pi became emperor, he named Zhang He as the general of the left and awarded the title of Marquis of Ju County. Zhang He followed Cao Zhen to quell the Qianghu rebellion in the Anding region, and then participated in the siege of Jiangling by Xiahou Shang. In the second year of Taihe (228), Zhang He accompanied Cao Zhen to deal with Zhuge Liang's Northern Expedition as a right general. He defeated Ma Tan in the Battle of Jieting and forced Zhuge Liang to retreat to Hanzhong, where he was promoted to general of the Western Che Cavalry. In the fifth year of Taihe (231), although Zhang He advised Sima Yi not to pursue the Shu army, Sima Yi did not listen, and Zhang He was forced to lead the army to pursue to Mumen, unfortunately he was killed by an arrow, and he was posthumously recognized as the Marquis of Zhuang, and was nicknamed Marquis Zhuang.

Second, Lejin. Le Jin's most important position in Cao Wei is the right general. Although due to the lack of historical data, we cannot be sure in which year Le Jin was promoted to the rank of Right General. However, in the twenty-third year of Jian'an (218), Lejin unfortunately passed away and was posthumously named Weihou. Later generations praised him, along with Zhang Liao, Yu Ban, Zhang He, and Xu Huang, as Cao Wei's "five good generals".

3. Xu Huang. In the Battle of Fancheng, Xu Huang personally led his army to successfully repel Guan Yu, and quickly pursued, breaking through the ten sieges set up by Guan Yu, thus completely lifting the siege of Fancheng. Therefore, after the establishment of Cao Wei, Xu Huang was rewarded by the right general. Subsequently, he fought with Xiahou Shang, defeated the Shu general Liu Feng, and captured Shangyong. In the first year of Taihe (227), Xu Huang died young, and he became strong. It is worth mentioning that Xu Huang was worthy of the temple court of Taizu Cao Cao for his outstanding military exploits, which reflected Cao Wei's high recognition and commendation of outstanding military generals.

Fourth, Xiahou Ba.

Xiahou Ba is the second son of Xiahou Yuan, the general of the expedition to the west. According to historical records such as the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms", Xiahou Ba served as the right general and the protector of Shu in the Wei State, and was named the Marquis of Bochang Pavilion and stationed in Longxi. In the first year of Jiaping (249), Sima Yi launched the Gaopingling Rebellion and eliminated Cao Shuang and his supporters. During this turbulent period, Xiahou Ba was uneasy and chose to defect to Shu Han, where he was appointed as a general of the chariot cavalry, and once accompanied Jiang Wei on the expedition to Wei.

5. Zhang Fei. In the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an (219 AD), Liu Bei announced that he was the king of Hanzhong in the autumn and July, and specially appointed Zhang Fei as the right general. This made Zhang Fei the first right general in the history of Shu Han. Two years later, in the first year of Zhangwu (221 AD), Liu Bei established himself as the emperor, named Zhang Fei as the general of the chariot cavalry, appointed the captain of the Sili school, and was crowned the Marquis of Xixiang.

However, on the eve of the Battle of Yiling, Zhang Fei was murdered by his generals Zhang Da and Fan Qiang (mistakenly known as Fan Jiang in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms). Not only did they seize Zhang Fei's head, but they also surrendered to Sun Quan. Zhang Fei's military camp governor sent a report to Liu Bei, and when he heard this, Liu Bei couldn't help but sigh: "Wow!."Fly has died in battle. "The queen of Shu Han later posthumously named Zhang Fei as the Marquis of Huan.

Sixth, Zhuge Liang.

In 221 AD, after Liu Bei became emperor, he appointed Zhuge Liang as prime minister, and was in charge of Shangshu affairs, and granted a holiday. However, in the same year, Zhang Fei was killed, causing Zhuge Liang to take over the position of lieutenant of Si Li. In the sixth year of Jianxing (228), Zhuge Liang carried out his first northern expedition, but suffered failure. Faced with this situation, Zhuge Liang wrote a letter requesting that he be demoted to a third-class official position. Empress Liu Chan then granted Zhuge Liang the status of the right general and entrusted him with the post of prime minister. As a result, Zhuge Liang briefly served as the right general of Shu Han, although during this period he was still in charge of important affairs in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Seven, Gao Xiang. Gao Xiang (also known as Gao Xiang, Gao Xiang), the year of birth and death is unknown, originally from Nanjun County, Jingzhou, was a general of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period. At the end of the Han Dynasty, he participated in the capture of Hanzhong with Liu Bei, and later participated in the Northern Expedition to Cao Wei with Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han. In the ninth year of Jianxing (231), Zhuge Liang played Liu Chan and suggested that Li Yan be deposed as a commoner. At this moment, Gao Xiang, who was the right general, also supported Zhuge Liang's proposal to remove Li Yan from office. Due to the lack of historical records, Gao Xiang's ultimate fate has not been clearly recorded.

8. Pan Zhang. Pan Zhang was originally from Yanzhou and lived in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. He came to Jiangdong at this time and began to work for Sun Quan. Deeply valued by Sun Quan, Pan Zhang was given the task of recruiting soldiers, successfully assembled a large team, and was appointed as a general. In 219 AD, Guan Yu guarded Jingzhou and launched the Battle of Xiangfan. Sun Quan sent Lü Meng and Pan Zhang to successfully attack Jingzhou, and finally Pan Zhang captured Guan Yu by his subordinate Ma Zhong in the process of Guan Yu's defeat of Maicheng. Pan Zhang personally beheaded Guan Yu and Guan Ping.

In 221 AD, Liu Bei personally led an army to conquer Eastern Wu in order to avenge his revenge, while Pan Zhang, under the leadership of Lu Xun, participated in the Battle of Yiling and successfully repelled the army of Shu Han. Subsequently, Pan Zhang and others continued to devote themselves to the battle against Cao Wei's army. In 229 AD, Sun Quan ascended the throne as emperor, and Pan Zhang was awarded the title of Right General. In the third year of Jiahe (234 AD), Pan Zhang passed away.
