Historical Information
Cheng Yi was briefly mentioned in various Wei records and Ma Chao's scroll from the Record of the Three Kingdoms. He was a honored man who received high praises. Together with Li Kan and Yang Qiu, he was the most influential of the Guanzhong lords. During the Battle of Tong Gate, he amassed a large army under Ma Chao and Han Sui. However, when the generals were put at odds with one another, their rebellion was crippled and scattered. Left with no other options and surrounded on both sides, Cheng Yi fought bravely through the confusion. As with Li Kan, he died in battle.

Cao Cao reportedly praised him by uttering, "While Ma Chao and Cheng Yi have conspired against me near the Yellow River of Tong Pass, it is your exploits that have truly destroyed Weinan."
