== Latar belakang ==

 

In late 219, [[Lü Meng]], a general serving under [[Sun Quan]], led an army to invade [[Liu Bei]]'s territories in southern [[Jing Province]] (covering parts of present-day [[Hubei]] and [[Hunan]]). [[Guan Yu]], Liu Bei's general in charge of guarding Jing Province, was away at the [[Battle of Fancheng]] and did not know about the invasion until after he returned from his Pyrrhic victory at Fancheng. He was surrounded by Sun Quan's forces in Maicheng (麥城; present-day Maicheng Village, Lianghe Town, [[Dangyang]], Hubei), captured in an ambush while trying to break out of the siege, and eventually executed by Sun Quan's forces in Linju (臨沮; present-day [[Nanzhang County]], Hubei).<ref>(權已據江陵，盡虜羽士衆妻子，羽軍遂散。權遣將逆擊羽，斬羽及子平于臨沮。) ''Sanguozhi'' vol. 36.</ref>
