高顺 / Gao Shun

高顺 / Gao Shun enters the wiki through the Hanji 1000 and Hanji 1018-1019 late-Han branch as the loyal subordinate whom 吕布 repeatedly needs but does not properly value. Hanji 1000 supplies the earlier life-saving case: after 郝萌 attacks Lü Bu’s 下邳 headquarters, Gao Shun identifies the rebels from their Henei accent, brings troops, breaks the revolt, and kills Hao Meng after 曹性 turns against him.

Hanji 1018 gives the fuller version: Gao Shun is described as clean, respected, and disciplined, with a seven-hundred-plus soldier unit known as “陷阵营.”

The source contrasts Gao Shun with 魏续 in practical command terms. Lü Bu gives Gao Shun’s troops to Wei Xu, then still calls Gao Shun back when a hard assault is needed. Gao Shun does not complain, and he continues warning Lü Bu against errors such as the failed personal demand for supplies from 张霸.

Hanji 1019 keeps that personnel lesson active, using Gao Shun as the positive side of Lü Bu’s judgment failure. The page remains source-scoped rather than a full military biography.

Hanji 1026 gives Gao Shun’s endpoint after 曹操 takes 下邳. Gao Shun is executed with 陈宫, making his death the close of the earlier unused-loyal-talent branch rather than a new independent strategy case.
