After Zhou Yu died, who took his place? In the fifteenth year of Jian 'an, that is, AD 2 10, Zhou Yu died. He is just thirty-six years old this year. At that time, his command of Battle of Red Cliffs had just ended, but he did not enjoy the joy of victory. Due to years of fighting, his body gradually overdrawn and eventually died of illness. Sun Quan wept bitterly after hearing the official records, which showed that Zhou Yu's death was undoubtedly a fatal blow to him. After all, Jiangdong at that time was still in a state of turmoil. Although he joined forces with Shu against Wei and defeated Cao Cao, it was obvious that after Zhou Yu's death, the whole Jiangdong was in chaos.

Therefore, after Zhou Yu's death, Sun Quan finally listened to Zhou Yu's advice before his death, and let Lv Meng take his place and become the supreme military commander of Soochow at that time. So after Zhou Yu's death, Lv Meng took his place. Although he was called "Wu Xia Amon", he was open-minded and eager to learn, and eventually became a great star. It can be seen that Zhou Yu was still very discerning at that time. If it weren't for his recommendation, Sun Quan probably wouldn't value him later.

Zhou Yu has always compared Zhuge Liang. Many people think he is narrow-minded. In fact, we are more influenced by the later novelist Luo Guanzhong's Romance of the Three Kingdoms. In fact, he has had a very high evaluation in the official history, and he also commanded the whole Battle of Red Cliffs. There is no such thing as Zhuge Liang borrowing from the east wind and Zhou Yu finally defeating Cao Cao.

Lv Meng is also a very successful general. Later, it was he who attacked Jingzhou, which eventually led Guan Yu to defeat Maicheng and was finally killed by Lv Meng. It can be seen that he is also courageous and resourceful, and also a great hero. It is this character that made him feel Zhou Yu's appreciation and take over, and quickly became the core figure of Jiangdong Group.
