Due to the interpretation of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and various folk arts, Lu Bu has always existed in people's minds as the "most powerful general of the Three Kingdoms". Lu Bu (? - February 7, 199), courtesy name Fengxian, was a native of Jiuyuan County, Wuyuan County (now Jiuyuan District, Baotou, Inner Mongolia). He was a famous general in the late Eastern Han Dynasty and one of the heroes in the late Han Dynasty. Do you know where the ancient tomb of Lu Bu is? What is the current situation of Lu Bu Tomb? What are the values ??in it that are worthy of our consideration?
The current situation of Lu Bu's ancient tomb
About ten kilometers south of Xiuwu County, there is Wang Village. About one kilometer east of Wang Village, turn south and you will see a village. , is Xiaolanfeng Village. You can see a not too big tomb in the field east of the north road of the village. It is about 18 meters long from north to south and about 6 meters wide from east to west. The tomb is overgrown with weeds and there are several trees. Not too big of a tree. When asked about the farmers who farmed nearby, they said that they only knew it as a "mound" in the past, but it had no name, and they didn't know it was Lu Bu's tomb. They only heard that it was Lu Bu's tomb since they saw many people coming to see it the year before last. Lu Bu's tomb is located in Xunfeng Village, Huanfengxiang, Xiuwu County. The stories of "Red Rabbit among Horses, Lu Bu Among Men" and "Three Heroes Fight against Lu Bu" are well-known, but few people know that Lu Bu was buried after his death. It is located in the north of Lanfeng Village, Xunfeng Town, 6 kilometers southeast of Xiuwu County in our city. Today, Lu Bu Tomb has become a county-level cultural relics protection unit.
After Lu Bu's grandfather died, his father Lu Liang succeeded him and married Huang. She was from Buhongwan, Wuyuan County (now Buhong Village, west of Wuyuan County). She was the daughter of a wealthy family. Huang is smart and virtuous, knowledgeable and courteous, and good at dyeing and weaving (later becoming the head of the dyeing and weaving workshop). Mr. Huang had four daughters and suffered from childlessness. One day, I followed my husband to Baima Temple (five miles east of Jinqi in present-day Wuyuan County, which has been destroyed at the bottom of the Yellow River due to embankments) to worship Buddha and ask for a son. On the night of her return, Mrs. Huang had a dream. She dreamed of a ferocious tiger rushing towards her. Upon seeing this, Ms. Huang hurriedly called her husband to fight, but the tiger lay docilely beside her. Not long ago, Huang felt pregnant. She had not given birth for 12 months and was feeling anxious.
On July 23, 161 AD, Huang moved to the dyeing and weaving workshop, and suddenly there was a loud noise outside the house. Everyone came out one after another, and saw a rainbow reflected in the northwest sky, which was dazzling. This scene was strange. Then the Wuyuan Mountains collapsed and the earth shook. Huang was about to give birth, but felt unwell, with unbearable pain in her abdomen, pelvic swelling, amniotic fluid overflow, and difficulty walking. She lay down on a piece of cloth and soon gave birth to a baby boy.
The birth of a baby boy was even more strange. But seeing the umbilical cord cut off by itself, his eyes bright, his fists clenched, standing in front of him, Huang was surprised, quickly wiped off the dirt and held him in his arms. Later, when talking to her husband, Lu Liang was very happy: "My son is a god." Because he was born on the cloth, he was named Lu Bu.
So, why was Lu Bu buried in Jiaozuo? With questions, the author consulted "Three Kingdoms", "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and other materials. Although there was no direct record of Lu Bu being buried in Jiaozuo after his death, there was It was found that Lu Bu did have a close relationship with Jiaozuo.
Lü Bu was originally from Wuyuan and Jiuyuan (now northwest of Baotou, Inner Mongolia). He was born in poverty and had extraordinary physical strength. He practiced martial arts since he was a child and was good at riding and shooting. When Lu Bu was 15 years old, his father passed away, and he was introduced to join the clan of Ding Yuan, the governor of Bingzhou (now Taiyuan, Shanxi). Lu Bu learned the art of bow and horse from Ding Yuan, and was known as the "Flying General". Later, Ding Yuan appointed Lu Bu as the cavalry captain and stationed in Hanoi (today's Jiaozuo). Soon, Lu Bu became the chief clerk, collecting documents and handling yamen affairs. After the death of Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong, Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo competed for control of the Han Dynasty. Dong Zhuo lured Lv Bu to kill Ding Yuan with high-ranking officials and generous salaries, and then Situ Wang Yun conspired with Lv Bu to murder Dong Zhuo. Afterwards, Wang Yun appointed Lu Bu as General Fenwei, and granted him the title of Marquis of Wen (now Wen County).
After Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo, he mounted a red rabbit horse and defected to Yuan Shu in Nanyang. Yuan Shu treated him with courtesy at first because he killed Dong Zhuo and avenged the blood feud for dozens of members of the Yuan family. But not long after he lived in Nanyang, he allowed his subordinates to rob the people's property, and he was very unhappy with Yuan Shu. Knowing that he could no longer survive, he had to say goodbye to Yuan Shu and went to Hanoi County to join his fellow villager Zhang Yang, the governor of Hanoi.
Zhang Yang was loyal to the emperor and righteous to his friends, and treated Lu Bu much better than Yuan Shu did. But Lu Bu felt that he could not stay in Hanoi County for a long time. The reason was that although Zhang Yang was very kind, Zhang Yang's subordinates wanted to kill Lu Bu and send his head to Chang'an to receive the reward. Seeing that something was wrong, Lu Bu said to Zhang Yang: "The imperial court has offered a reward for my capture. If you catch me alive, the reward will be greater than if you catch me dead. Instead of killing me and sending me away with my head, it's better to tie me up and send me away."
"Maybe Zhang Yang was deliberately humorous, or maybe Zhang Yang was just too kind. He didn't say "I won't betray you", but said to Lu Bu seriously: "What you said is right. "Lü Bu was made restless by Zhang Yang's words and had to leave. So he led several of his men to the east to defect to Yuan Shao.
Later, Yuan Shao appointed Lü Bu as Sili in the name of the emperor. After receiving the news, Lu Bu sat in a tent and played the kite for a while, and then handed the kite to a man. The cronies continued to attack, but he slipped away quietly. After Yuan Shao received the news of Lu Bu's escape, he was greatly frightened and ordered the city gates to be closed to prevent Lu Bu from attacking. After Lu Bu escaped safely, he did not dare to continue to Luoyang and did not have the courage to go to Yuan Shao. After much thought, he felt that Zhang Yang was the only one in the world who was really kind to him, so he went to Zhang Yang again. Zhang Yang didn't care at all about his leaving without saying goodbye last time, and took him in again.
In 198, Cao Cao dispatched a large army to attack Lu Bu in Xuzhou. Zhang Yang, the prefect of Hanoi, had a close friendship with Lu Bu and planned to rescue him. However, he did not have enough strength, so he could only lead his army to Dongshi (today's eastern suburbs of Qinyang City) to build momentum from a distance. When he was fleeing, he made a good friend, Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu. Zhang Miao hated Yuan Shao, was afraid of Cao Cao, and loved Lu Bu. He heard that Cao Cao went to Xuzhou to defeat Tao Qian and was defeated, and that Cao Cao only had Cheng Yu and Zao in his rear. After hearing the news about the three counties of Fan, Dong'a and Juancheng, which were left behind with Xun and the other three, he thought it was a rare opportunity, so he listened to Chen Gong, betrayed Cao Cao, and sent people to Hanoi County to pick up Lu Bu from Yanzhou, hoping to make Lu Bu the new shepherd of Yanzhou. In November, Zhang Yang's general Yang Chou responded to Cao Cao's request, and another general, Sui Gu, killed Yang Chou and led his troops to defect to Yuan Shao in the north. In December, Lu Bu refused to listen to the adviser's plan. The tyrannical general was eventually captured by his subordinates. Lu Bu, Chen Gong and others were killed by Cao Cao, and their heads were sent to Xu County (today's Xuchang City) for public display. The above historical materials mainly come from what is known as the "Four Histories of the Han Dynasty". Moreover, although in Chapter 19 of the novel "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" "Cao Cao fought fiercely in Xiapi City, Lu Bu died in Baimen Tower" there is "Cao Cao put his (Chen Gong) body in a coffin and buried it in Xu." "Du" and "Cao ordered Lü Bu to be hanged to death and then beheaded", but did not say where Lü Bu was buried.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, in "Nothing is seen when going out, the plain is covered with white bones" (Wang Can's "Seven Sorrows" ")", Lu Bu was not a politician or military strategist, and could not be compared with Cao Cao and Zhuge Liang. However, more than 1,800 years after his death, we should be clear that the Lu Bu in history is not what most people think of. The Lu Bu we know in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is because after all, "Lü Bu among men and the red rabbit among horses" is a historical fact.
Where is Lu Bu's tomb?
The tomb of Lu Bu is under construction. Xunfeng Village, Xunfeng Township (huaifengxiang), Wu County
The stories of "Red Rabbit among Horses, Lu Bu among Men" and "Three Heroes Fighting Lu Bu" can be said to be a household name, but few people know that Lu Bu died after his death. He is buried in the north of Lanfeng Village, Xunfeng Town, 6 kilometers southeast of Xiuwu County. The tomb of Lu Bu has now become a county-level cultural relic protection unit. So, why was Lu Bu buried in Jiaozuo? Although there is no direct record of Lu Bu being buried in Jiaozuo after his death in "Three Kingdoms", "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and other materials, it is also found that Lu Bu did have a relatively close relationship with Jiaozuo.
Lü Bu was originally from Wuyuan and Jiuyuan (now northwest of Baotou, Inner Mongolia). He was born in poverty and had extraordinary physical strength. He practiced martial arts since he was a child and was good at riding and shooting. When Lu Bu was 15 years old, his father died, and he was introduced to join the clan of Ding Yuan, the governor of Bingzhou (now Taiyuan, Shanxi).

Dong Zhuo lured Lv Bu to kill Ding Yuan with high-ranking officials and generous salaries, and then Situ Wang Yun conspired with Lv Bu to murder Dong Zhuo. Afterwards, Wang Yun appointed Lü Bu as General Fenwei and granted him the title of Marquis of Wen (now Wen County).
After Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo, he mounted a red rabbit horse and defected to Yuan Shu in Nanyang. Yuan Shu treated him with courtesy at first because he killed Dong Zhuo and avenged the blood feud for dozens of members of the Yuan family. But not long after he lived in Nanyang, he allowed his subordinates to rob the people's property, and he was very unhappy with Yuan Shu. Knowing that he could no longer survive, he had to say goodbye to Yuan Shu and went to Hanoi County to join his fellow villager Zhang Yang, the prefect of Hanoi.
Zhang Yang was loyal to the emperor and righteous to his friends, and treated Lu Bu much better than Yuan Shu did. But Lu Bu felt that he could not stay in Hanoi County for a long time. The reason was that although Zhang Yang was very kind, Zhang Yang's subordinates wanted to kill Lu Bu and send his head to Chang'an to receive the reward. Seeing that something was wrong, Lu Bu said to Zhang Yang: "The imperial court has offered a reward for my capture. If you catch me alive, the reward will be greater than if you catch me dead. Instead of killing me and sending me away with my head, it's better to tie me up and send me away." "Maybe Zhang Yang was deliberately humorous, or maybe Zhang Yang was too kind. He didn't say "I won't betray you", but said to Lu Bu seriously: "What you said is right." Lu Bu was confused by Zhang Yang's words. I was restless and had to leave. So, he led several of his men to defect to Yuan Shao eastward.
Later, Yuan Shao appointed Lu Bu as the Sili Colonel in the name of the emperor, and sent elite warriors to escort Lu Bu to Luoyang to take office, but secretly ordered Lu Bu to be killed on the way. After Lu Bu got the news, he sat in his tent and played the kite one night. After playing for a while, Lu Bu handed the zheng to a confidant to continue playing, but he quietly slipped away. After Yuan Shao received the news of Lu Bu's escape, he was greatly frightened and ordered the city gates to be closed to prevent Lu Bu from attacking. After Lu Bu was safely out of danger, he did not dare to continue to Luoyang, nor did he have the courage to go to Yuan Shao to settle the score. After much thought, he felt that Zhang Yang was the only one in the world who was truly good to him, so he went to Zhang Yang again. Zhang Yang didn't care at all that he left without saying goodbye last time and took him in again.
In 198, Cao Cao dispatched a large army to attack Lu Bu in Xuzhou. Zhang Yang, the prefect of Hanoi, had a close friendship with Lu Bu and planned to rescue him, but he did not have enough strength, so he could only lead his army to Dongshi (today's eastern suburbs of Qinyang City) to build momentum from a distance. In addition to Zhang Yang, Lu Bu also made a good friend during his escape - Zhang Miao, the governor of Chenliu. Zhang Miao hated Yuan Shao, was afraid of Cao Cao, and loved Lu Bu. After hearing the news that Cao Cao went to Xuzhou to defeat Tao Qian and was defeated, and that only Cheng Yu, Zao, and Xun stayed in Cao Cao's rear to guard the three counties of Fan, Dong'a, and Juancheng. Thinking that the opportunity was rare, he listened to Chen Gong's words, betrayed Cao Cao, and sent people to Hanoi County to pick up Lu Bu from Yanzhou, hoping to make Lu Bu the new shepherd of Yanzhou. In November, Zhang Yang's general Yang Chou killed Zhang Yang and responded to Cao Cao; another general Sui Gu killed Yang Chou again and led his troops to defect to Yuan Shao in the north. In December, Lu Bu refused to listen to his advisers' plans and brutally brutalized his generals, and was finally captured by his subordinates' plan. Lu Bu, Chen Gong and others were killed by Cao Cao, and their heads were sent to Xu County (today's Xuchang City) to be hung for public display. The above historical materials mainly come from "Three Kingdoms", which is known as one of the "Four Histories of the Han Dynasty". Furthermore, although in Chapter 19 of the novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Cao Cao fought fiercely in Xiapi City, and Lu Bu died in Baimen Tower", there are "Cao Cao put his (Chen Gong's) body in a coffin and buried it in Xudu" and "Cao Cao ordered "Hang Lu Bu to death and then hang his head", but did not say where Lu Bu was buried.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, in the melee of warlords who "went out and saw nothing, the plains were covered with white bones (Wang Can's "Seven Sorrows")", Lu Bu was not a politician or military strategist, and could not be compared with Cao Cao and Zhuge Liang. However, today, more than 1,800 years after his death, we should be clear that the Lu Bu in history is not the Lu Bu that most people know from "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", because after all, "Lü Bu among men, and the red rabbit among horses" is historical facts.

The mysterious ancient tomb discovered in Wuyi, Hengshui may be related to Lu Bu
The ancient tomb is hidden 5 meters deep underground
On the morning of the 27th, Wu There is a cattle farm in the north of Liluchi Village, Hanzhuang Town, Yi County, and vehicles are constantly coming in and out. On the west side of the cattle farm, there is a large pit about 5 meters deep, which is said to be where the cattle farm stores feed. And in this deep pit, a mysterious ancient tomb reappeared.
When the reporter rushed to the site where the ancient tomb was unearthed, the excavator that was working had also stopped working. In the center of the pit, a piece of lime slab blocked a black hole. From time to time, people curiously ran to the black hole to have a look. A worker who maintained order on site drove the people away and said that the black hole covered by the lime slab was the one that had just been discovered. The ancient tomb is very large inside, and a cave entrance was found more than ten meters away, which seems to be connected to the ancient tomb.
After consent, the reporter slowly slid down the slope next to the pit and approached the entrance of the ancient tomb to find out. After opening the limestone slab, sunlight rushed into the ancient tomb along the hole, and the interior of the tomb was suddenly illuminated. There was nothing in the room, there was a shallow layer of water on the ground, there was only a black jar lying in the center, and a corpse facing upwards was lined up next to the jar.
If you observe a little, you will find that the tomb is surrounded by vertical green bricks with patterns engraved on the surface.
There is an arched passage on both the north and south sides, but the passage on the north side is blocked, so the construction of the entire tomb is very particular.
Four ancient corpses line the tomb chamber
Lao Li, who is in his 50s, is a worker at this cattle farm. When he discovered the ancient tomb, he once got into it. Lao Li said that the tomb was about 1.5 meters deep and was empty except for a black jar. What surprised him was that there were four corpses lined up in the tomb, three facing east and west and one facing north and south. What puzzled him even more was that the deceased had no coffin and bowl, which seemed so unusual.
Lao Li also said that after entering the tomb, he planned to enter the south passage to explore, but because it was too dark and the air was dirty, he only leaned in and then withdrew. He affirmed that the passage was still very deep. Later, workers discovered another cave entrance on the south side of the pit, which everyone thought was connected to the ancient tomb.
Some people boldly speculated that it might be related to Lu Bu
After the discovery of the mysterious ancient tomb, it attracted great attention from the local government and the city and county cultural protection units, and immediately arranged for the police and staff to carry out the investigation. Guarded. A staff member of the Wuyi County Culture, Broadcasting and New Bureau said that similar ancient tombs have been found in the local area, but such complete preservation is rare, and the specific age of the ancient tomb cannot be accurately determined at present. They have reported the situation to the provincial cultural protection unit and will conduct protective excavations.
The origin of the name of "Li Luchi" village is said to be that Lu Bu came here to drink horses during the Three Kingdoms period. Regarding the appearance of this mysterious ancient tomb, the villagers of Li Luchi were also talking about it. To be able to build such a large tomb, the person buried must be rich or noble. Some even boldly speculated, "It cannot be related to Lu Bu." .
