'''Zhou Yu''' was a strategist and general in the Eastern Wu kingdom during the [[Three Kingdoms]] period of [[China]].
Zhou Yu was born in Lujiang District. He was raised in a famous military family, and was expected to serve as a military officer in the [[Han Dynasty]]. Instead, he took an interest in strategy and history. As a teenager, he was sent to live with [[Sun Jian]], who took responsibility for Zhou Yu's upbringing. Zhou Yu was treated like Sun Jian's own son, and became particularly close to Sun Ce.
In 200, [[Sun Quan]] appointed Zhou Yu to the position of general. He had little actual experience with combat until 208, when he was made the commander of Wu forces during the [[Battle of Chi Bi]]. As a result of his success, he was given the title of General of Abundant Peace (风富和平), a position he held until his death in 210.
