History vs. fiction

Details of Fu Qian's martyrdom

  • In the official history, it is recorded that when Zhong Hui attacked Shu, "he sent a separate general to attack the pass, Jiang Shu opened the city and surrendered, and Fu Qian fought to the death." (Records of the Three Kingdoms, Book of Shu, Biographies of Jiang Wan, Fei Yi, and Jiang Wei) However, in Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Chapter 116, a plot is added where Fu Qian goes out of the pass to fight, and Jiang Shu takes the opportunity to surrender the pass. Moreover, Fu Qian does not die in combat but rather "having been stabbed multiple times, his blood filled his robe and armor, his horse fell, and Fu Qian committed suicide by cutting his own throat."
