Meng Huo

Wikipedia

 
Meng Huo (孟獲), King of Nanman, was the chieftain and leader of the tribes in the Nan Zhong region south of Kingdom of Shu|Shu. He was involved in several small skirmishes with Shu, but when Kingdom of Wu|Wu and Kingdom of Wei|Wei were concentrating on fighting one another, Shu's Zhuge Liang launched a full invasion of the tribes. After being captured by Zhuge 7 times, he surrendered to him and swore his allegiance to Shu.

He was married to Zhu Rong, who claimed descent from the god of fire.

Note: In the official histories, Meng Huo was in fact Chinese, but in the novel he is portrayed as a Nanman (southern barbarian), which was the name the Chinese gave to the tribesmen of the Nanzhong region.

There is also said to be a version of the legend, in which Zhuge Liang captures Meng Huo 7 times.
