Huang Chong 黃崇

His father Huang Quan was a man of Langzhong in Baxi. When Liu Bei, after taking the imperial title, set out to attack Wu, Huang Quan became General Who Guards the North and commanded the armies north of the Yangtze to guard against the Wei forces. When the Wu general Lu Yi (Lu Xun) came down on the current and cut through the camps, and the southern army was badly defeated, Huang Quan, unable to return because the road was blocked, led the troops under his command and surrendered to Wei. When the officials responsible proposed seizing Huang Quan's wife and children according to the law, Liu Bei said, 'I failed Huang Quan; Huang Quan did not fail me,' and treated them as before.

In Wei, when one of those who had come over from Shu said that his wife and children had been executed, Huang Quan knew it was a false report and did not hold mourning at once. When reliable news came later, it was just as he had said. Records, Shu 13 §7

In Wei, Huang Quan was transferred to General of Chariots and Cavalry with honors equal to the Three Excellencies in the 3rd year of Jingchu (239); he died the following year (240) and received the posthumous name Marquis Jing. His son Huang Yong succeeded him, but Huang Yong had no son, and the line ended. Chen Shou then recorded the deeds of Huang Chong, the son Huang Quan had left behind in Shu. Records, Shu 13 §9–10

Huang Chong became a Gentleman of the Imperial Secretariat and followed the General of the Guards Zhuge Zhan to resist Deng Ai. In the winter of the 6th year of Jingyao (263), Deng Ai, General Who Conquers the West of Wei, came in by a byroad from Yinping along the Jinggu road, and Zhuge Zhan led the various armies to Fu County and halted there.

When they reached Fu County and Zhuge Zhan hesitated and did not advance, Huang Chong urged him again and again that they must hurry forward and seize the strongholds so that the enemy could not enter the plain. When Zhuge Zhan wavered and did not accept this, Huang Chong went so far as to shed tears. Records, Shu 13 §10

Just then Deng Ai drove forward over a long distance, and Zhuge Zhan fell back to fight at Mianzhu. Huang Chong led and spurred on the soldiers, resolved to die, and was killed on the field. According to the Biography of Deng Ai, Deng Ai's son Deng Zhong and the Major Shi Zuan fought again, crushed the enemy and took the heads of Zhuge Zhan, the Master of Writing Zhang Zun and others. The biography of Li Hui in the same volume 13 records that his nephew Li Qiu, as Commander of the Right Division of the Feathered Forest, also followed Zhuge Zhan to resist Deng Ai and died at Mianzhu.

In his assessment of volume 13, Chen Shou called Huang Quan 'broad-minded and refined, and deep in his thinking,' but did not assess Huang Chong separately. Records, Shu 13 §65
