Lu Su (Chinese: 魯肅) is a minor protagonist in the 14th-century Chinese classic novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms by the late Luo Guanzhong, and its multiple adaptations. He is one of the generals of Sun Quan and Zhou Yu's successor.
History
When Lu Su was born, his father died and grandmother raised an adult. Lu Su's family property is rich, he is good at giving, but his physical strength and appearance are singular and strange. Although he is a teenager, he has strong military exercises and likes to use odds. Lu Su learns to fencing and riding, recruiting teenagers and giving them clothes and foods. Lu Su went to the hunt, he secretly deployed and trained the soldiers. At that time, the world was in a state of chaos, Lu Su did not manage family affairs and sold the land at a price.
Lu Su was responsible for helping the poor and forging people with lofty ideals. Lu Su was a substitute for the position of Zhou Yu, a war commander, and Wu's previous adviser who had died after the Battle of Chibi. During the battle, Lu Su was still Zhou Yu's close advisor and liaison with Shu forces. Since Zhou Yu's death, Lu Su was appointed chief adviser to Sun Quan's forces until his death. He was replaced by Lu Meng. While Lu Su had a different thought than Zhou Yu, Lu Su felt more profitable for Wu to organize good diplomatic relations with Shu kingdom.
Zhou Yu considered Zhuge Liang as a big threat and tried to get rid of him every chance, Lu Su is not really careless, but only for the impartiality and gentleness of others. Lu Su was respected Zhuge Liang and had helped him from danger several times. For example when Zhuge Liang was told to produce 100,000 arrows for Wu's army and if Zhuge Liang was failed, he would be punished by military punishment. Lu Su helped Zhuge Liang by preparing a canoe and boat and a small army for Zhuge Liang who was finally able to get more than 100,000 arrows from Cao Cao's forces.
Personality
Lusu is a often active person because he is wise. Most of the time, he seems to have played a charismatic role, but deep inside shows a clever mind whose intelligence matches most of Wu's talent. Lu Su also often takes more "good sports" for others, and rarely does it in stages in his own way. This is usually a kind of attention to his old but intelligent thoughts.
Compared with other Wu comrades, Lu Su treats their alliance with Shu more seriously, and believes that this is most beneficial to Wu's future. It also shows that when Lu Meng and Lu Xun decided to break the alliance on one of the imaginary routes, he was not happy.
Nevertheless, in order to gain his strength in the future, Lu Su still looks forward to the phrases and hopes of the younger generation.
