Xu Sheng

Xu Sheng (徐盛) (?-?) was a brave Wu general who participated in several battles for Wu. He is often noted several times throughout his career for overcoming enemies who outnumbered him greatly, and with decisive victories. Soon after Cao Pi declared himself Emperor of Wei, he mobilized a large force to attack Wu. As the commander in chief of the Wu forces, Xu Sheng constructed a fake wall along the banks of the river (that served as a border) which stretched over 100 li. Cao Pi, upon seeing the wall, immediately withdrew his forces. Thus, Xu Sheng repelled the entire Wei invasion without a single casualty. Xu Sheng died a while after.
