Zhang Bu

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Zhang Bu (張布) (d. 264) was an officer serving under the Kingdom of Wu during the Three Kingdoms Period of China. Zhang Bu served as the Left General under Wu. Through the orders of the new emperor of Wu, Sun Xiu, he along with Right General Ding Feng served justice by executing the tyrant Sun Chen. Zhang Bu afterwards supported Sun Hao's ascent to the imperial throne of Wu, but ended up being killed for criticizing the brutality of Sun Hao. Zhang Bu was one of many that were executed by the hands of Sun Hao simply because they did not agree with his tyrannical actions.
