    黃龍元年,拜桓前將軍,領青州牧,假節。嘉禾六年,魏廬江主簿呂習請大兵自迎,欲開門為應。桓與衛將軍全琮俱以師迎。既至,事露,軍當引還。城外有溪水,去城一里所,廣三十餘丈,深者八九尺,淺者半之,諸軍勒兵渡去,桓自斷後。時廬江太守李膺整嚴兵騎,欲須諸軍半渡,因迫擊之。及見桓節蓋在後,卒不敢出,其見憚如此。是時全琮為督,權又令偏將軍胡綜宣傳詔命,參與軍事。琮以軍出無獲,議欲部分諸將,有所掩襲。桓素氣高,恥見部伍,乃往見琮,問行意,感激發怒,與琮校計。琮欲自解,因曰:「上自令胡綜為督,綜意以為宜爾。」桓愈恚恨,還乃使人呼綜。綜至軍門,桓出迎之,顧謂左右曰:「我縱手,汝等各自去。」有一人旁出,語綜使還。

Cao Wei

Their side

Cao Wei was a regime whose state name was “Wei” during the Three Kingdoms period. In the late Eastern Han, Cao Cao gradually gained control of the court, and was successively enfeoffed as Duke of Wei and King of Wei, laying the foundations for the Cao clan’s regime. In the twenty-fifth year of Jian’an (220), Cao Pi succeeded to the title of King of Wei, accepted Emperor Xian of Han’s abdication, and ascended the throne as emperor. He adopted the reign title Huangchu and established the state name Great Wei; Emperor Xian of Han was enfeoffed as Duke of Shanyang. Cao Rui succeeded Cao Pi; as Cao Rui had no sons, he adopted Cao Fang as his heir. When Cao Fang ascended the throne, the Grand General Cao Shuang and Grand Commandant Sima Yi assisted in governing. Cao Fang was later deposed, and Cao Mao was welcomed to the throne; after Cao Mao’s death, Cao Huan succeeded him. The Cao Wei throne was successively held by Cao Pi, Cao Rui, Cao Fang, Cao Mao, and Cao Huan.
