During Sun Quan's reign, few generals defected to Wei State . However, after his death, due to frequent civil strife in the Eastern Wu, many generals were forced to leave. Among them, the full-length that the author will talk about today. Although it was Sun Quan's grandson, it still surrendered to Cao Wei , which is naturally a reflection of the civil strife in the Eastern Wu.

Quanyi, from Qiantang, Wujun (now Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province), he is the son of the famous general of the Eastern Wu Quancong .
Quan Cong's father Quan Rou was appointed as a filial and honest person at the time of the Han Dynasty, and was appointed as the right chief of the Shangshu. During the rebellion, Dong Zhuo abandoned his official position and returned home. In 196 AD, when Sun Ce pacified Jiangdong, Quan Rou raised his troops to surrender to Sun Ce. Therefore, the Quan family was not only a local gentry in Jiangdong, but also a contribution to assisting Sun Ce in pacifying Jiangdong, which is also an important reason for the marriage between Sun Quan and the Quan family.
In the first year of Huanglong (229), Sun Quan ascended the throne and became emperor. Sun Luban married the newly promoted General Quan Cong. Since then, Sun Luban has also been called Quan Princess Quan before. Quan Cong had his eldest son Quan Xu and second son Quan Shi. After marriage, Quan Princess gave birth to Quan Cong's three sons Quan Yi and the youngest son Quan Wu.
Chiwu The twelfth year (249), Quan Cong passed away and his son Quan Yi succeeded him.
In 252 AD, after Sun Quan died, the young Sun Liang ascended the throne. On this basis, Zhuge Ke and other ministers entrusted with orphans launched a fierce internal struggle. In the end, Sun Jun eliminated Zhuge Ke and successfully took over the power of the Wu Kingdom.
According to principles, Quan Yi is Sun Quan's grandson, and he should have a good relationship with Sun Jun. However, after Sun Jun took power, he harmed his relatives in a large number of ways, deposed the prince Sun and , Sun Quan's daughter Sun Luyu , and Sun Ying, the son of Prince Xuan Sun Deng , were killed one after another. In my opinion, this is undoubtedly one of the reasons why Quan Yi later surrendered to Cao Wei, that is, he was worried about being persecuted.

In the first year of Taiping (256), Sun Jun died of illness while conquering the Wei Kingdom. He was 38 years old and entrusted his funeral to his cousin Sun Feng. For Sun Jing, he also likes to kill, which makes everyone in danger.
In 257 AD, Cao Wei's general to the East, Zhuge Dan, launched a rebellion, recruited Huainan soldiers and a year of food to guard Shouchun, and killed Yangzhou, Governor Leju , and sent Wu's son Zhuge Liang and his children to Dongwu to request reinforcements. In response, Sun Qian sent Quan Yi and Quanduan, Wenqin, Tang Zi and others to lead 30,000 troops to rescue Zhuge Dan. After arriving in Cao Wei, Quan Yi and others formed a confrontation with the army of Sima Zhao and .
At this time, Quan Yi's sons Quan Yi and Quan Yi got into a lawsuit and took his mother and dozens of people across the river and surrendered to Sima Zhao. So Zhonghui sent Quanyi and Quanhui's family to report to Quanyi, saying that Sun Feng was furious because Quanyi and others could not take down Shouchun and wanted to kill all his family, so he fled to the north.
Quan Yi and others heard the news and were frightened and uneasy, so they opened the city to surrender. The turn of the Eastern Wu reinforcements naturally accelerated Zhuge Dan's demise. In 258 AD, Sima Zhao successfully quelled the Zhuge Dan Rebellion.

Finally, facing Quan Yi, the surrendered general, Sima Zhao enthroned him as General Pingdong and was awarded the title of Marquis of Linxiang, which was undoubtedly a higher treatment. In addition, members of the Quanyi family, including Quanyi, Quanyi, , Quanjing, and , also chose to surrender to Cao Wei and all received the treatment of the marquis. Therefore, it is very obvious that Quan Yi, Quan Yi and others were betraying the Eastern Wu, making Quan Yi very passive. Coupled with Sima Zhao's persuasion to surrender, Quan Yi could not turn back.
In addition, after the reign of the whole world, many generals of the Eastern Wu had to choose to betray them. For example, Sun Kai was a royal family of the Wu Kingdom. In 276 AD, when Sun Hao was reigned, Sun Kai obtained the position of General Cavalry. However, because of Sun Hao's reproach, Sun Kai betrayed the Eastern Wu and surrendered to , Western Jin . Another royal general, Sun Xiu , betrayed the Eastern Wu in 270 AD and surrendered to the Western Jin Dynasty. All of these naturally weakened the overall strength of the Wu Kingdom.
