關於資料
關鍵誠實聲明：唯有「戰略」層面的行軍調度有史可徵——載於陳壽《三國志》，尤其〈周瑜傳〉及《吳書》諸篇，並裴松之注（《江表傳》；華容道敗退見《山陽公載記》）。至於膾炙人口的「戰術」細節，則出自十四世紀《三國演義》的後世虛構，此處一概不採：連環戰船、諸葛亮祭東南風、「草船借箭」之計、以及黃蓋受刑（苦肉計）的戲劇化情節，皆非史實。確切戰場所在仍有爭議：學者聚訟其地已約一千三百五十年；最為公認的一說為赤壁市（今湖北，舊蒲圻），然亦有黃州（蘇東坡所詠之「赤壁」）、嘉魚縣及武漢／武昌一帶等說並存。自隋唐以來，長江在烏林與武漢之間的河道已有變遷，地名亦有遷移（三世紀之華容在江北、江陵之東；今之華容縣則在湖南、江南）。故其結果為：此處每一組〔經度,緯度〕皆是投射於今日長江中游框架上的「重構」定位，係依最廣為接受的赤壁市／烏林配對（赤壁約東經113.90、北緯29.72，位於南岸；烏林約東經113.93、北緯29.85，位於北岸與之相望），並以武漢（約東經114.3、北緯30.5）比定夏口／樊口。其中兩個階段標記為「有史可徵」，因其戰略走向敘述確鑿、起訖地點定位可靠（曹操自江陵之進軍；聯軍艦隊自夏口／樊口逆流而上）；其餘階段標記為「重構」，因赤壁之遭遇戰、烏林之退守、火船渡江之處、華容道之敗退路線及追擊路徑，若欲釘定於確切的今日座標，皆繫於尚未論定的戰場地址之爭。框架附註：江陵本城（今荊州）位於約東經112.2，在所需地圖框（經度113.5至114.6）之西；其框內起點乃西緣的規範化入框位置，非該城之真實所在。兵力數字（孫權約三萬、劉備約兩萬，對曹操規模遠大卻為疾疫所困之眾）依《三國志》；曹操自報之數則普遍被認為誇大。
