Lian Po was famous among the vassal states for his bravery and courage. In the early stage of the Battle of Changping, he successfully resisted the Qin army by defending. Nine years after the Battle of Changping, he repelled the invasion of Yan, beheaded the Yan army commander Li Fu, marched to besiege the capital of Yan for three months, and forced the other side to cede five cities to seek peace. As a result, he was appointed as prime minister and was named Xinping Jun. During the reign of King Zhao Daoxiang, he was frustrated and fled to Wei and Chu successively. When he fled to Wei, he lived in Daliang, and then died of old age in Chu and was buried in Shouchun.
