Just months after Cao Cao of Wei was driven out of Hanzhou by defeat at Dingjun, his cousin Cao Ren was defeated and besieged at Fancheng by Guan Yu of Shu. Cao Cao’s relief army under Yu Jin was destroyed by floods, but Guan Yu was badly beaten by a second force under Xu Huang. Guan Yu was pursued and executed and Sun Quan seized the middle Yangzi, leading to battle in 222 at Yiling.
