Biography

王连,南阳人。
三国志卷四一 蜀书十一 霍王向张杨费传:
  王连字文仪,南阳人也。刘璋时入蜀,为梓潼令。先主起事葭萌,进军来南,连闭城不降,先主义之,不强逼也。及成都既平,以连为什邡令,转在广都,所居有绩。迁司盐校尉,较盐铁之利,利入甚多,有裨国用,於是简取良才以为官属,若吕乂、杜祺、刘幹等,终皆至大官,自连所拔也。迁蜀郡太守、兴业将军,领盐府如故。建兴元年,拜屯骑校尉,领丞相长史,封平阳亭侯。时南方诸郡不宾,诸葛亮将自征之,连谏以为“此不毛之地,疫疠之乡,不宜以一国之望,冒险而行”。亮虑诸将才不及己,意欲必往,而连言辄恳至,故停留者久之。会连卒。子山嗣,官至江阳太守。
