When Guan Yu was guarding Jiangling, he was attacked by Monroe, a subordinate of Sun Quan, and both the territory and Guan Yu himself were captured.

At the same time, he ordered people to guard Ezhou (now Wuchang) as a military stronghold, and he also used the Yellow Crane Tower as a lookout. Today's Wuchang is the junction of Ezhou at that time, but then Ezhou is now Wuchang County, and the two places are called the soul.
