Zhang Xiu
Zhang Xiu (张绣) (? - 207) was born in Zuli, Wuwei (southwest of modern day Jingyuan, Gansu province). He was the nephew of Dong Zhuo's lieutenant Zhang Ji. After Zhang Ji's death, he commanded Ji's troops in the city of Wancheng (modern day Nanyang, Henan province). He later surrendered to Cao Cao before rebelling again and defeating Cao in the Battle of Wancheng. Cao's general Dian Wei and Cao's first son Cao Ang were both killed in this raid. Zhang Xiu surrendered to Cao Cao again and fought well against Yuan Shao in the Battle of Guandu. In 207, Zhang Xiu died en route on a campaign against the Wuhuan tribe.
