耿夔 / Geng Kui (late Han)

Overview

耿夔 / Geng Kui enters the wiki through a 105 CE northeastern frontier notice in Hanji 776. His current role is as the Liaodong administrator who counterattacks Goguryeo after king Gong raids and plunders Han border counties.

Current Profile

Hanji 776 says Goguryeo king Gong enters the Liaodong frontier and plunders six subordinate counties. In autumn of the same year, Geng Kui attacks Goguryeo and defeats its forces. The source does not provide more tactical detail, but it gives Geng Kui a clear place in the earlier Emperor He frontier layer before later An-era Goguryeo material.

Key Characteristics

• Liaodong administrator in the current source.
• Frontier commander associated with the 105 CE response to Goguryeo raiding.
• Source-bounded northeastern actor whose current profile is narrower than later Geng-family or frontier histories.

Evidence

• Frontier office and campaign: Hanji 776 identifies Geng Kui as Liaodong administrator and says he defeats Goguryeo after its raid.
• Goguryeo context: Hanji 776 says king Gong’s forces plunder six Liaodong subordinate counties before Geng Kui’s counterattack.

Qualifications

This page should not be used as a full biography of Geng Kui or a complete history of Han-Goguryeo conflict. The source supplies one campaign notice and leaves troop numbers, route, command process, and aftermath source-scoped.

What Changed

• Created Geng Kui as the canonical actor for the 105 CE Liaodong counterattack against Goguryeo.

Relationships

• 高句丽 - frontier opponent defeated after the 105 CE Liaodong raid.
• 汉和帝 - ruler whose late reign contains Geng Kui’s Goguryeo response.
• 趁丧不伐 - later contrast because Hanji 797 handles Goguryeo through restraint after royal death rather than immediate counterattack.
