In the long history of China, many outstanding generals emerged during the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty, among which General Yang Lie, a miscellaneous general, attracted much attention. Although this official title gradually declined later, it had rich historical roots during the Han Dynasty. This article will focus on General Yang Lie, focusing on three outstanding generals of the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty: Guo Yan under Dong Zhuo, Gongsun Yuan under Liaodong, and Wang Chang under Cao Wei.
Guo Yan (?).A.D. 197), born in Zhangye, Liangzhou, formerly known as Guo Duo, was a prince general in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Originally, Guo Yan was Dong Zhuo's subordinate general and assisted Dong Zhuo in usurping the power of the imperial court. However, after Dong Zhuo was joined forces by Wang Yun and Lu Bu, Guo Yan fell into a predicament with nothing to rely on. Under Jia Xu's persuasion, he and Li Wei decided to fight back, successfully defeated Lü Bu, and seized control of Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty.
In the process, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty canonized Li Dao as General Yangwu, and Guo Yan was honored as General Yanglie. However, Guo Yan was not willing to be satisfied with this, and after a series of power schemes, he was finally killed by his own generals, ending his legendary and bumpy life.
Gongsun Yuan (?238), a native of Xiangping County, Liaodong County, was a general of the princes in the Liaodong region. In the second year of Taihe (228), Gongsun Yuan seized the position of his uncle Gongsun Gong, and was canonized as General Yanglie and Liaodong Taishou by Emperor Cao Rong of Wei Ming. However, Gongsun Yuan's ambitions did not stop there, and he tried to claim vassal status to Eastern Wu, but was opposed by the Eastern Wu court. Instead, Gongsun Yuan beheaded the envoy of Eastern Wu, made contributions to Cao Wei, and was named the Great Sima, continuing to rule Liaodong.
However, Gongsun Yuan's secession eventually led to Cao Wei's crusade. In the second year of the early Jing dynasty (238), Cao Wei sent Sima Yi to lead an army to attack Gongsun Yuan, and finally eliminated this powerful party in the northeast, and Liaodong was included in Cao Wei's territory.
Wang Chang (2nd century, 259), a native of Jinyang County, was a general of Cao Wei and the son of Wang Ze, the Taishou of the Han Dynasty. Before Cao Pi's accession to the throne, Wang Chang served as the crown prince of literature, and then promoted to the rank of free horseman. After Cao Rong ascended the throne, Wang Chang was canonized as General Yanglie and given the title of Marquis of Guannei, and gradually emerged.
After Sima Yi launched the Gaopingling Rebellion, Wang Chang became the right-hand man of Sima Yi's family. He participated in the battle of Wu and achieved outstanding military exploits, and was promoted to the general of Zhengnan, the three divisions of Kaifu Yitong, and finally became the secretary. Wang Chang was loyal to Cao Wei all his life, made great achievements for him, and became a highly respected general during the Three Kingdoms period.

Guo Yan fought on the battlefield and made great contributions to Dong Zhuo and Emperor Han Xian, but in the end, his fate was bumpyGongsun Yuan went east and west to fight, separating one side, but finally lost to Cao Wei's iron hoof;During the period of Cao Wei III, Wang Chang set a model for those who came after him with the image of wisdom and bravery.
