Another serious crisis posed by Eastern Wu …

Years: 234 - 234

Another serious crisis posed by Eastern Wu occurs in 234, when Eastern Wu, in a semi-coordinated effort with Shu Han, launches an attack against Cao Wei simultaneously with Zhuge Liang's Northern Expeditions.

At the time, many frontline officials are on family leave, so Man Zhong requests Cao Rui to call them back to fight Sun Quan.

Cao Rui refuses to cancel his subordinates' vacations, and orders Man to focus on the defense.

Cao Rui then personally leads the royal army as reinforcement, and acts as an effective coordinator of the various forces that Cao Wei has on Eastern Wu's borders, and Eastern Wu is unable to make substantial gains.
