Fu Qian was an officer of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms era of China and the son of the Shu general, Fu Tong. In the Romance of Three Kingdoms, Fu Qian was accredited for killing both and during battle, and following a certain attack by on the Yangping Pass, Fu Qian defended it with his greatest of skills. However, Jiang Shu ended up surrendering which ultimately led to Fu Qian's death while in the midst of combat.
In reality, however, the assignment of Jiang Shu and Fu Qian were actually opposit to what was described in the novel: it was Fu Qian who was tasked to defend the post while Jiang Shu was tasked to go out to engage the invading Cao Wei force. However, Jiang Shu surrendered by opening the gates and let the enemy in, Fu Qian was killed in the futile attempt to drive out the enemy.
