Wu Yi

Wu Yi (onyomi: Go I) is an officer of Shu who previously worked for Liu Zhang. His sister became one of Liu Bei's wives.

Roles in Games

Wu Yi originally appeared as a bodyguard in Dynasty Warriors 3: Xtreme Legends. He returns in Dynasty Warriors 6 as a generic officer under Liu Zhang's faction.

In Dynasty Warriors 9, Wu Yi and Li Yan are in charge of defending Mianzhu as it leads to Zhang Ren's base at Luo Castle. If the pair are defeated, they will surrender and will help siege Zhang Ren. Ma Dai can also arrive to help attack Wu Yi and Li Yan if he has found the secret path leading to Mianzhu.

In Kessen II, Wu Yi is among the few officers defending Cheng Du from the player.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms portrays him as an above average officer whose best characteristic is leadership. He is affiliated with Liu Yan when the latter forms his own faction within Yizhou and continues to serve under his son, Liu Zhang and then later Liu Bei. Prior to his service under Liu Yan, he can be found as a free officer in Chenliu during the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

Historical Information

Born in Chenliu, Wu Yi and his younger sister Lady Wu lost their parents at a young age. They were taken in by Liu Yan who had been made governor of Yi Province at the time. When their adopted guardian passed away, his son Liu Zhang succeeded him and made Wu Yi one of his generals. Wu Yi for his part served him loyally until he suffered defeat at the hands of Liu Bei. His subsequent defection encouraged many of his former comrades to follow suit, eventually resulting in Liu Zhang's surrender.

Now affiliated with Shu, he was appointed as inspector of Yong Province while his sister married their lord and became an empress. After being made a marshal in Guanzhong, he and Wei Yan were considered viable choices for leading the invasion against Wei. Zhuge Liang, however, went against the counsel of his peers and chose Ma Su whose defeat at Jieting spelled disaster for their entire campaign.

In 230, Wu Yi joined Wei Yan's rear attack against Cao Zhen, helping defeat Guo Huai and Fei Yao. Not only did he receive a greater position for contributing to the battle, he even succeeded Wei Yan as governor of Hanzhong after the latter's rebellion and Zhuge Liang's death. He eventually died in 237 without leaving any heirs.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms

The novel introduces Wu Yi in chapter 62 where he volunteers to defend Luo Castle from Liu Bei alongside Wu Lan and Lei Tong. Subdued by Zhao Yun, he willingly surrenders to his captors and warns them about Zhang Ren. During the Northern Campaign, Zhuge Liang entrusts him to cut off Wei's retreat together with Hu Ban.
