Why did Cao Cao say: Having a son should be like Sun Zhongmou. This makes sense.

First, be responsible! In times of crisis, he was ordered to carry Soochow through fire and water. After his father died and his brother died, the eighteen-year-old Sun Quan had to carry the banner of Soochow. The heroes competed for the throne, and under the dangerous situation of war and mountains, they endured the humiliation and endured the heavy burden, which made Soochow stay strong. It’s not easy. Moreover, it is rare to be able to proclaim himself emperor in the later period and live to die at the age of 71.

Second, be ambitious! As the Lord of Jiangdong Wu, he has the highest status. Sun Quan has always respected his civil servants and generals so much that they are willing to be loyal and die in return. Gan Ning, who was a bandit, and Zhang Zhao, Huang Gai, Zhou Tai, veterans of the three dynasties, all surrendered to him.

Third, there is a big picture! Take a long-term view and have an overall view. For the benefit of Jiangdong, he endured the humiliation and endured the heavy burden. He endured Liu Bei's repeated deceptions and refused to return Jingzhou; Guan Yu's arrogance and insults; he endured them all and fought against Cao Cao for the sake of his compatriots. Marrying his sister to Liu Bei and marrying Guan Yu's daughter as his daughter-in-law were all to strengthen the Sun-Liu alliance. Although he was unwilling a hundred times, he was still working hard.

Fourth, have courage! Although Sun Quan led his troops on an expedition, he never seemed to win, and he was even almost destroyed by Zhang Liao in Xiaoyaojin. However, Sun Quan always set an example and did not indulge in pleasure like Liu Chan. Instead, he always led his troops into battle. This is courage, the courage of a king. It is this that inspires the generals of Soochow.

Fifth, be courageous! The exceptional promotions of Lu Meng and Lu Xun are examples. During a review of the troops, he discovered that Lu Meng was outstanding and was promoted to Sima. The young scholar Lu Xun was able to become a general. These people have made great military exploits for Soochow and consolidated Soochow's power. This shows Sun Quan's vision and courage.

Sixth, have personality! Sun Quan respected his father and elders, and loved his brothers and sisters. Husband and wife loved each other, and the family was harmonious. As the leader of Wu, Sun Quan is qualified

As the pillar of the family, Sun Quan is qualified. He obeyed his mother's teachings. His younger brother was killed in Danyang, and Sun Quan personally led an army to retrieve his younger brother-in-law. He and his wife Bu Lianshi respect and love each other, and their family home is stable.

From this point of view, Sun Quan’s ability to become the hegemon of a generation and the leader of a country was not due to luck.

Sun Quan has the qualities of a hero. No wonder even Cao Cao said: Having a son should be like Sun Zhongmou
