meng huo

Meng Huo (孟獲), King of Nanman, was the chieftain and leader of the tribes in the Nan Zhong region south of Shu. He was involved in several small skirmishes with Shu, but when Wu and Wei were concentrating on fighting one another, Shu's Zhuge Liang launched a full invasion of the tribes. After being captured by Zhuge 7 times, he surrendered to him and swore his allegiance to Shu. He was married to Zhu Rong, who claimed descent from the god of fire. Note: In the official histories, Meng Huo was in fact Chinese, but in the novel he is portrayed as a Nanman (southern barbarian), which was the name the Chinese gave to the tribesmen of the Nanzhong region. There is also said to be a version of the legend, in which Meng Huo captures Zhuge Liang 7 times.
