The life story of Sun Quan, the hegemon of Jiangdong, in his own words: I was born into a military family and became a county magistrate at fifteen, campaigning north and south. I was valiant and imposing, hailed as a rising star. Strong and fearless, I shot a tiger and earned the name “Tiger-Slaying Hero.” You say I was merely a ruler who maintained what others had built, but you don't know that I could command talents like Zhou Yu and Lu Xun, defeat the two heroes of this chaotic age, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and build a great domain, expanding its borders. I also love wine, young girls, and fine steeds. I love this magnificent land. I am Sun Quan, the hegemon of Jiangdong.
