Profile

Shangguan Yong is a general of Shu whose name appears in Chapter 91 of the Romance, in the list of posts Zhuge Liang assigns to his generals as he sets out to attack Wei, as Rear Protector of the Army and General of the Household Directing the Army (dianjun zhonglangjiang). Of the Romance's 120 chapters he appears only in this one, and no chapter has his name in its title. Romance, Ch. 91 §41–43

He does not appear in Chen Shou's main text and is recorded only in Pei Songzhi's notes. The account of Li Yan in Chen Shou's main text records that when Zhuge Liang laid out all the letters Li Ping (Li Yan) had written, early and late, exposing his contradictions and errors, and submitted a memorial, Li Ping was deposed, made a commoner and moved to Zitong Commandery. Records, Shu 10 §47 · 49

In the Romance

In Chapter 91 of the Romance, Zhuge Liang, having pacified the south and returned, submits a memorial saying he will attack Wei, and though Qiao Zhou strives to dissuade him by citing the heavens, he does not listen. He leaves Guo Youzhi, Dong Yun, Fei Yi and others as Palace Attendants in charge of affairs within the palace, and has more than a hundred civil and military officials at court and outside it jointly govern the affairs of Shu. Romance, Ch. 91 §39–40

Having received the edict, Zhuge Liang returns to his headquarters and summons the generals to hear their orders. As he assigns the posts of the generals in order, beginning with Wei Yan as Commander of the Vanguard, Zhang Yi as Commander of the Front Army and Wang Ping as General of the Standard, he names, after the Front Protector of the Army Xu Yun, the Left Protector of the Army Ding Xian and the Right Protector of the Army Liu Min, Shangguan Yong, General of the Household Directing the Army, as Rear Protector of the Army. All of them follow Zhuge Liang, Grand Commander Who Pacifies the North, Chancellor and Marquis of Wuxiang. Romance, Ch. 91 §41–43

With the assignments made, Zhuge Liang sends a dispatch ordering Li Yan and others to hold Chuankou against Eastern Wu, and fixes the bingyin day in the 3rd month of spring of the 5th year of Jianxing (227) to raise his army and attack Wei. The Romance does not depict Shangguan Yong's deeds after this. Romance, Ch. 91 §43
