Mao Jie

Mao Jie is an advisor in service of Cao Cao during the late Han Dynasty. He was known for his proficiency in dealing with domestic policies and promoting agriculture. He and Yu Jin were both made naval commanders in the Battle of Chibi after the deaths of Cai Mao and Zhang Yun.

Historical Information
During his young adult years, Mao Jie was nominated as an official in his home county of Pingqui for his loyalty and conduct. Eventually, he went on to serve Cao Cao as an attendant at Xuchang. It was he who advised his lord to use the Emperor's influence in commanding the other officials and maintaining order.

Mao Jie was then given the task of electing new officials for Cao Cao, a job he had kept even after the formal establishment of Wei. He was later stripped of his title due to false allegations made by his colleague Bai Jie. As time went by, he died due to natural causes.
