司马尚 / Sima Shang

司马尚 / Sima Shang enters the wiki through 《资治通鉴·秦纪》113｜李牧如何用一己之力阻秦国统一 as the 赵国 commander paired with 李牧 during 秦国’s 229 BCE attack on Zhao. The source presents him less as an independent battlefield figure than as part of the command pair Qin chooses to remove through court intrigue.

The episode says Qin bribes 郭开 to accuse Li Mu and Sima Shang of rebellion before 赵迁 / 赵幽缪王. Zhao then replaces them with 赵葱 and 颜聚. Sima Shang yields the command, while Li Mu refuses and is killed or arrested, making Sima Shang part of the same front-line replacement failure even though his personal endpoint is less dramatic in the source.
