Biography[]
Lu Su was born to an extremely wealthy family. When his father died when Lu Su was young, he inherited his vast fortune. However, he spent most of this fortune giving it away to the poor. Lu Su traveled from town to town, aiding the poor and helpless as much as he could. Eventually, Lu Su would meet a stranger on the road. After traveling for some time, the stranger, having introduced himself as Zhou Yu, asked for Lu Su to fund and feed his army.
Zhou Yu was a vassal under Yuan Shu at the time, which led to the two men being introduced. After briefly serving Sun Jian, Lu Su would end up in the administration of Yuan Shu. However, Lu Su was not fond of Yuan Shu in the slightest and ended up joining Sun Ce instead. When Sun Ce died, Sun Quan hired Lu Su as a strategist. However, Lu Su's greatest achievement was securing the alliance between Sun Quan and Liu Bei to the west against Cao Cao. He would continue his rise through the ranks after the death of Zhou Yu, after which Lu Su took over his position of Commandant.
However, Lu Su's alliance between the two warlords would fall apart after their common enemy – the Duchy of Wei – had been driven back. Lu Su tried in vain to maintain the alliance between Sun Quan and Liu Bei but proved unsuccessful. He died in 217 for reasons unknown.
