＇e＇　Shidou　has　been　a　southern　capital　of　China　for　successive　dynasties。　A　beautiful　place；　Shidou　was　considered　a　treasure　by　the　emperors　of　Yuan　Dynasty　（Mongol　rule）。　Located　near　Shanghai　where　the　Great　River　meets　the　East　Sea；　Shidous　modern　name　is　Nanjing。

But　Wang　Jun　would　not　listen。　Drawing　his　sword；　he　said；　〃I　wish　to　capture　Capital　Shidou*；　and　will　not　hear　of　anchoring。〃

So　he　pelled　the　sailing　master　to　continue。　On　the　way　Zhang　Xiang；　one　of　the　leaders　of　Wu；　came　to　offer　surrender。

〃If　you　are　in　earnest；　you　will　lead　the　way　and　help　me；〃　said　Wang　Jun。

Zhang　Xiang　consented；　returned　to　his　own　ship；　and　led　the　squadron。　When　he　reached　the　walls　of　Shidou；　he　called　to　the　defenders　to　open　the　gates　and　allow　the　Jin　army　to　enter。　The　gates　were　opened。

When　the　Ruler　of　Wu　heard　that　his　enemies　had　actually　entered　the　capital　city；　he　wished　to　put　an　end　to　his　life；　but　his　officers　prevented　this。

Secretary　Hu　Zong　and　Palace　Officer　Xue　Rong　said；　〃Your　Majesty；　why　not　imitate　the　conduct　of　Liu　Shan　of　Shu；　now　Duke　of　Anle？〃

So　Sun　Hao　no　longer　thought　of　death；　but　went　to　offer　submission。　He　bound　himself　and　took　a　coffin　with　him。　His　officers　followed　him。　He　was　graciously　received；　and　the　Jin　General　Wang　Jun　himself　loosened　the　bonds；　and　the　coffin　was　burned。　The　vanquished　Ruler　was　treated　with　the　ceremony　due　to　a　prince。

A　poet　of　the　Tang　Dynasty　wrote　a　few　lines　on　this　surrender：

Adown　the　stream　ride　storied　warships　tall；

With　massive　chains　some　seek　to　stop　their　way。

But　Jianglings　independence　fades　away；

And　soon　〃We　yield〃　is　signaled　from　the　wall。

Full　oft　I　think　of　bygone　days　and　sigh；

Along　the　stream；　unmoved；　the　old　hills　rest；

While　I　am　homeless　on　the　earths　broad　breast；

Where　grim　old　forts　stand　gray　beneath　the　sky。

Therefore　Wu　was　subdued　and　ceased　to　exist　as　a　state。　Its　4　regions；　43　counties；　313　districts；　5；230；000　families；　62；000　civil　officers；　230；000　soldiers　and　military　officers；　23；000；000　inhabitants；　its　stores　of　grain　and　over　five　thousand　large　ships；　all　fell　booty　to　the　victorious　Jin　Dynasty。　In　the　womens　quarters　of　the　Palace　were　found　more　than　five　thousand　persons。

Proclamations　were　issued；　treasuries　and　storehouses　were　sealed。　Tao　Juns　navy　soon　melted　away　without　striking　a　blow。　Wang　Jun　was　greatly　elated　at　his　success。　Sima　Zhou；　Prince　of　Langye；　and　General　Wang　Rong　also　arrived　and　congratulated　each　other。

When　Du　Yu；　the　mander…in…Chief；　arrived；　there　were　great　feastings　and　rewards　for　the　soldiers。　The　granaries　were　opened　and　doles　of　grain　issued　to　the　people；　so　that　they　also　were　glad　of　peace。

Only　one　city　stood　out………Jianping；　under　Governor　Wu　Yang。　However；　he　too　surrendered　when　he　heard　the　capital　had　fallen。

The　tidings　of　all　these　successes　reached　Capital　Luoyang　just　at　the　celebration　of　the　birthday　of　the　Ruler　of　Jin；　and　the　rejoicings　and　congratulations　were　redoubled。　At　one　of　the　banquets　the　Ruler　of　Jin　did　honor　to　the　memory　of　the　late　Yang　Hu。

Raising　his　wine　cup；　and　in　a　voice　broken　by　emotion；　he　said；　〃Todays　success　is　the　merit　of　the　Imperial　Guardian。　I　regret　that　he　is　not　here　to　share　our　rejoicings。〃

In　Wu；　Sun　Xi；　General　of　the　Flying　Cavalry；　went　away　from　the　court　and　wailed；　facing　the　south。

〃Alas；　ye　blue　heavens！　What　manner　of　man　is　this　Sun　Hao　to　yield　thus　the　heritage　of　his　family；　won　by　the　sword　of　General　Sun　Jian　the　Martially　Glorious　in　the　brave　days　that　are　past？〃

Meantime　the　victors　marched　homeward；　and　Sun　Hao　went　to　Luoyang　to　present　himself　at　court。　In　his　capacity　of　minister；　he　prostrated　himself　at　the　feet　of　the　Emperor　of　the　Jin　Dynasty　in　the　Hall　of　Audience。　He　was　allowed　a　seat。

〃I　set　that　seat　for　you　long　since；〃　said　the　Ruler　of　Jin。

〃Thy　servant　also　set　a　seat　for　Your　Majesty　in　the　south；〃　retorted　Sun　Hao。

The　Ruler　of　Jin　laughed　loudly。

Then　Jia　Chong　turned　to　Sun　Hao　and　said；　〃I　hear；　Sir；　that　when　you　were　in　the　south；　they　gouged　out　peoples　eyes　and　flayed　their　faces。　What　crimes　were　so　punished？〃
