Story:
In 279 AD, Emperor Wu of Jin ordered the conquest of the State of Wu. He instructed Wang Jun to sail down the Yangtze River and commanded that during the attack on Jianping, Wang Jun should be under the command of General Du Yu of Zhennan, and during the attack on Jianye, under the command of General Wang Hun of Andong.
Wang Jun sailed downstream with the wind and current, sweeping all before him, reaching Stone City directly.
Sun Hao, the King of Wu, surrendered. Emperor Wu of Jin, far from blaming him, instead enfeoffed him as Grand General Who Assists the State.
