张辽 / Zhang Liao

张辽 / Zhang Liao enters the wiki through Hanji 1000 as part of the Bingzhou-origin military core inside 吕布’s organization. The episode does not build a full biography of Zhang Liao; it uses him with 高顺 to identify one side of Lü Bu’s internal faction structure.

That placement matters because 陈宫 is interpreted as representing a different support channel: the Yanzhou士族 and adviser network. Zhang Liao therefore functions in this source as a factional marker rather than a central event actor in 郝萌’s revolt.

The page remains compact until later sources add Zhang Liao’s independent military career.
