General XU

get ready outside the city
prepare to attack XIN YE
general Song
block the 9 gates of JING ZHOU
strengthen the defense

yes
uncle of the emperor
young lord
what's the problem?
Uncle of the emperor
let me ask you first
did you meet my father
alone today
yes, for dragon-boat festival
chief invited me to drink
what did you talk about
he asked my opinion of
the establishing the heir
I said
it will violate the rules to
abolish the elder and make
the younger the heir
thank you for your honesty
but this brings you big trouble as well
is chief going to kill me
no, no, father will never
but CAI MAO will
the general mansion
was lit up tonight
CAI MAO was making disposure
uncle of the emperor
leave JING ZHOU now
and get back to XIN YE
thank you for saving my life
but to be courtesy
I was invited by your father
I have to say goodbye first
otherwise, it would be rude
forget about the courtesy at
this moment about life or death
go now
did you get LIU PEI
general, the room was empty
we've searched everywhere
but still can't find him
LIU PEI is living here
how can he just disappear
bring the room manager
take him here, yes
go, go quickly
where is LIU PEI?
General
at about late night
LIU PEI rushed out suddently
and got off on a horse
he didn't say anything
chief is here
chief, chief, chief
It is already mid-night
why are you doing here?
Chief
according to the room manager
LIU PEI rushed out at late night
he ran away
I am in charge of security here
LIU PEI is your guest here
anything happen to him
I am to be blamed
so I lead troops to monitor
is that so
yes, it is
bring the lamp
take it
guarding nothing for years
having the land in vain
dragon doesn't belong in pool
but ride thunder to fly high
chief, this is uprising
LIU PEI is not willing to be in
the pool of JING ZHOU
he wants to ride the
thunder to fly high
I've treated him so well
but he is not thankful at all
he really intend
to take my JING ZHOU
yes
I would have to kill him then
chief
this poet is vulgar and raw
It shouldn't be NXUAN DE(LIU PEl)'s style
and I havn't seen him
write any poets before
chief
he must has another plan
otherwise why he
ran away at midnight
I've disposed troops already
all we need is your order
let me go to XIN YE
to take LIU PEI back
if you have any doubt of this
then we can take him first
you can ask him yourself
you go to XIN YE to take LIU PEI
will GUAN YU and ZHANG FEI
just let you do that
and ZHAO YUN, ZHAO Zl LONG as well
then war will be provoked immediately
all dismiss
I will go into deep investigation later
dismiss
didn't you hear me
why you all look at him
I am the master of JING ZHOU
haven' t you heard chief's order
dismiss and get back to camp
go,go,yes
last night when we
got to the guest room
LIU PEI had run away already
we got nothing
and I suggested to attack XIN YE
chief rejected my suggestion
has he begun to suspect me
of course he has
when he came back late at night
he shouted there was
internal traitor inside JING ZHOU
he almost puked blood of anger
what should we do then
don't be panic
the lucky thing is
after his angry shouting
his old disease came to him
I think
he might not be able to
do politics within to or 15 days
but after his recovery
he will still find out the truth
of course he will
but
I can slow down his recovery
I have already told the doctor
to use special medicine
on one hand, to keep chief alive
on the other
to keep him stay sick
so you will have enough time
do things now
sister, if you were a man
you should be a strategist
I am a woman, so what
I can still be master of JING ZHOU
you are right
thank you for welcoming me
you are welcome
I have to thank you for
saving my life in the guest room
oh, right
I left without saying goodbye
Did your father say anything about this
the strange thing is that
father got ill the next day
he could not get out of bed
so nobody asked about that again
so you come here today
what can I do for you
the temple festival of JINGXIANG
is due the day after tomorrow
we have the festival once a year
every general and minister
of JINGXIANG 9 counties
must come to discuss politics
this year we have good harvest
the festival will be big
according to rules
father will be present himself
but he's quite ill and can't make it
he asked me to be on his behalf
great
it means your father trust you
but I told my father
most ministers of JINGXIANG
are all my elder generation
I might be too young
and inexperienced
so he said
go invite XUAN DE(LIU PEI) to go with you
he's uncle of his majesty
that honor will
impress the ministers
your father is too kind
now that he asked
and you come yourself
I will go then
thank you
come
temple festival of JINGXIANG
is the extremely
important event to JING ZHOU politically
all officials of the 9 counties
will gather to discuss political event
LIU JING SHENG is ill
and can't be present
he asked me to come
I will go tomorrow
and come back in 3 or 5 days
you all must do your job
carefully and diligently
during my absence
YUN CHANG(GUAN YU) will be in charge
of all issues of this city
yes
you've just escaped from death
that is very lucky
why will you go there again
in my opinion
this festival is not a good sign
don't go
if I don't go
it will be rude to LIU JING SHENG
he's been treating me so well
I can not be rude
I have to go even it's dangerous
I can't let him down
let me follow you then
I will protect you
younger brother
you are too impulsive sometimes
I will get Zl LONG go with me
yes
good horse, good horse
very rare
you have good vision
you can see it's rarity
can I have your name
we just met by chance
name is not important
can I have a look at this horse carefully
yeah,su re
this horse is amazing
but it has a slot under its eye
called DI LU
you can not use it for riding
if you do, it will do you harm
how will it harm me
in several days
there will be bloody battles
May I know whether the battle is avoidable
well
all you have to do is to
send it to your enemy
after DI LU horse harm your enemy
you can take it back to ride
in this way you'll be fine
what is this after all
harm others to benefit self
do some grossly unjust matters
I'd rather die to do this kind of thing
people say LIU XUAN DE(LIU PEI)
is of integrity
it's true after all
how do you know my name
today
42 officials from 9 counties
of JINGXIANG gather here
to celebrate the harvest of rice
the peace and prosperity
my father is ill
so he fails to be here
he can only stay at JING ZHOU
and deliver his bless to you all
wish chief good healthy
thank you for your presence
my father invited general ZUO
Yl CHENG vassal
namely uncle of his majesty
LIU XUAN DE(LIU PEI)
uncle of the emperor
since I entered into the
territory of JINGXIANG
I felt this place is beautiful
has rich resources and people
comparing with the
battled world of CAO CAO
JINGXIANG is like the
heaven on this planet
you are right
we 9 counties in JINGXIANG
is really an amazing place
heaven on this planet
uncle of the emperor is
a decent man after all
right, right
the peace here
is due t wise chief LIU JING SHENG
and thanks to you all as well

requested by brother JING SHENG
I send you my wishes, cheers
uncle of the emperor, cheers
zl LONG(ZHAO YUN)
chief

I'd better not drink
those are all local officials
we plan to stay here long
we have t to treat
them with courtesy
besides, carrying a sword here
you may scare others, go
yes
uncle, please allow me to refill your cup
you listen
this time LIU PEI came here
he brought only ZHAO YUN and
500 troops
surround the temple now
once I make my order
you all rush into it
if anyone ask
just say he conspire with CAO CAO
to take JING ZHOU
chief order to kill him secretly
this time
never let him escape again
yes
young lord
cheers, cheers
come, come, come
Please allow me to refill your cup
good wine, good wine
fill it, fill it
what is it
governor of XIANG YANG told me
that outside is full of troops
troops
your father wants to kill me
it can not be my father
it must be CAI MAO
those troops belong to general
uncle of the emperor, run now
get out from the side door
young lord
can I not escape this time
you see, during my whole life
I led a vagrant life
run from one place to another
always escaping
can I quit escaping
Let it be
I'll just wait here
and see what he will do with me
uncle of the emperor
you are a man of integrity
you'll achieve something one day
if you die here this way
you are not a man after all
besides, if you die
there will be a bloody battle
in JING ZHOU coming after
general GUAN, ZHANG and ZHAO
will take revenge to my father
at that time
CAI MAO and my step-mother
will get me killed as well
and then
even my father can not escape
you are right
go now
go secretly
go now
you take care
LIU PEI has run
general, look, LIU PEI has run
quick, go after him, now
young lord, where is my chief
general, don't worry
he's gone already
DI LU, DI LU, you really harm me
general CAI
where is my chief
your chief
he's crossed the river
impossible
the river is so deep
no horse can go across that
you are right
but he did cross it
why you bring your troops with you
officials of 42 counties and 9
states are all here in XIANG YANG
as the main general of JING ZHOU
I have to make secure their safety
tell me
what did you do to my chief
I did not do anything
if you don't believe
you can ask him
get out of my way
ZHAO YUN
you chief is live or dead
nobody knows
you want to fight
the pitch suddenly goes high
must be someone hero's listening
I am an old man with no name
but you can all me SHUI JING
lam LIU PEI, LIU XUAN DE
my pleasure to meet you
uncle of the emperor
my honor
your horse is so heroic
but your wearing looks so ragged
you must just escaped from danger
you are right
you see through everything
I was chased by people
my horse got stuck in
the river 5 miles away
chasers prepared to shoot arrows
I thought I was going to die
at that moment
surprisingly this DI LU horse
jumped high and
rushed to the other side
and I was saved
lucky enough
if this is true
then I want to congratulate you
why is that
that river is called TAN XI
in history
CHU King XIANG YU killed 300,000
surrendered troops of QIN there
the killing lasted for a whole month
the river was full of blood
and the skulls formed hills
it took TAN XI years to flow
them into XIANG river
you can see that
how many heroes were buried
in the water of the river
and how many wraiths were in it
only you can make your horse
jump high and get out of danger
oh my god
you should thank god
I have wine here
if you don't mind
have a drink to forget the fear
thank you for your kindness
come in
general
in your opinion
how's the future of
LIU BIAO in JING ZHOU
LIU JING SHENG is my brother
he's of integrity and kindness
he's brave and intelligent
he will achieve something
to rise the HAN family
general
what you said
you can't even believe yourself
you say this just to be decent
and not to tell the truth
then what's your opinion
how's his future going
he's got strong enemy outside
and interior chaos as well
generals and ministers
carry different views
JING ZHOU will be taken by
someone else one day
I can't speak out my suffering
but you spoke out everything NI mean to say
those years
among counties of JINGXIANG
there is one nursery rhyme
the last two rhymes are
god has all the arrangement
the dragon from the river
fly to the sky
don't you think
the rhyme is talking about
your experience today
god has all the arrangement
the dragon from the river
fly to the sky
Sir
I have few troops and generals
I was defeated many times
a man like me
can really achieve something
in this world
there are many heroes
the pity is
many of them aim high
but only a few can achieve large
why is that
because if you want to
achieve large
at least you need two things
with you
one is intelligent and the other is military
you are strong in fighting
but weak in intelligence
and your followers GUAN YU
ZHANG FEI and ZHAO YUN
are all unbeatable to others
but SUN QIAN, JIAN YONG
and Ml FANG etc.
All lack the intelligence
to save a nation
so you have only one wing
all you need is a strategist who
views the world and plan thing thoroughly
you are right
May I know
where can I find
such a military strategist
there are WO LONG and FENG CHU
get one and you'll get the world
WO LONG and FENG CHU
where are they now
please I need your instruction
it's a secret
forgive me
Sir
even if I can not get
WO LONG or FENG CHU
if I can get your help
that would be my honor
I am too old
my day is numbered
I can only have this green hills
and rivers as company to live the rest of my life
general , don't worry
you'll find someone much
better than me one day
to help you
It is just a matter of time
if that time has not come
things will not change
when it comes, everything follows
thank you for your instruction
come on, please drink some wine
coming, coming
it's you, YUAN ZHI
hasn't you asked by LIU BIAO
to go to JING ZHOU
why are you here late night
I did went to JING ZHOU
but chief LIU JING SHENG
although he's kind
but he's got no high aim
he's just got a good name
I saw through him in 2 days
he likes good people but
he can't use them
he hates the evils but
he can't get rid of them
he can't dispatch the troops
either can handle internal issue
I think he will get stuck
sooner or later
I was afraid that he
may ask me to stay
so I left JING ZHOU at night
shh, watch your voice
I have a guest here
sorry, who's that
I just wake up
lam general ZUO, LIU PEI
oh, uncle of the emperor
we met before
Sir, it's you
can I ask you
are you WO LONG or FENG CHU
lam
neither WO LONG or FENG CHU
I am XU SHU, styled YUAN ZHI
I heard what you said
you were right about
LIU JING SHENG's shortness
even if you are not WO LONG Nor FENG CHU
you must be better than them
I am flattered
compared with WO LONG and FENG CHU
I am like a star to the moon
you are too modest
XUAN DE(LIU PEI) was right
those who has intelligence
and had read a lot of books
are more modest
come, come, be seated
uncle of the emperor, come
I've heard of your integrity
that day I tried your DI LU horse
on purpose
it was true
you said DI LU horse harmed owner
you were right about that
that day
my horse got stuck in the river
I almost got killed
ordinary owners might
get harmed by DI LU horse
but it will never hurt you
when I left JING ZHOU
I visited XIN YE on my way
there is ballad in the villages
something like this
XIN YE plain
uncle of the emperor
since his coming
people got rich
I felt a lot when I heard it
you've just been there 1 year
and you've made such contribution
you are really a man of kindness
caring for the world
whether you get better or worse
win or lose
you'll get people's heart
you must know that
what the ballad is talking about
is what people's thinking about
and who can get people's heart
will be close to get god's will
XUAN DE(LIU PEI)
what are you doing
what YUAN ZHI said
is the most touching word I've
ever heard in my life
but it was like a sharp sword
coming through my heart
painful but it's fast
Mr. YUAN ZHI
May I invite you
to come to me
to be my military strategist
that will be helpful to me
I know only a little
can't be competent to such important task
chief, please find someone else
for more than 20 years, I've
been seeking someone like you
to help Prime Minister
I think about that day and night
now I meet you here
it's like rain on drought
I am asking you
to help Prime Minister
your mind makes me moved
military strategist is important
I really can't take the position
XU SHU
uncle of the emperor
beg you so much
his honesty is obvious
you can say yes
otherwise, your intelligence
will be wasted anyway
through out history
getting a talent is easy
but getting a wise chief is hard
although uncle of the emperor
has suffered a lot of setbacks
but without doubt he's
a wise chief after all
one day he will fly into the sky
and establish his achievement
today you two meet in my house
it's god's arrangement
I worship you as my teacher
and will never change that
I will do as you wish
good, good
Sir, please rise
your meeting is really significant
delightful, very delightful
chief, chief
chief
it's zl LONG(ZHAO YUN)
gentlemen
my general ZHAO YUN find me here
ZHAO Zl LONG(ZHAO YUN) from CHANG SHAN
we've heard a lot about him
come, let he come in
zl LONG(ZHAO YUN)
chief
zl LONG(ZHAO YUN)
how you come here
I looked for you the whole night
I followed track of your horse
and find you here
brave and royal
very rare
this is Mr. SHUI JING
and this is Mr. XU SHU
this is ZHAO YUN, ZHAO Zl LONG
after CAO CAO defeated YUAN SHAO
he needs to rest troops 1 year
to prepare food and equipment
and then he will battle
to take the world
his military target
is the 9 counties in JING ZHOU
and we depend on LIU BIAO
guarding at XIN YE
we would be the first to confront
I think the battle will begin
next Spring
based on CAO CAO's habit
before a big campaign
he will send a strong army
into JI GXIANG first
to attack the city and take land
but his intention is not
about this army win or lose
how many they kill or gain
he use this army to find out
the situation of JING ZHOU
to find out the enemy's weakness
even find out the strongness and
weakness of LIU BIAO's troops
I fought with CAO CAO before
I was confused
now after your speech
I understand them now
therefore
we have two urgent tasks
first, YUN CHANG(GUAN YU) and zl LONG(ZHAO YUN) lead
one army each to camp
30 miles outside XIN YE city
YUN CHANG(GUAN YU)'s camp is fake one
Zl LONG(ZHAO YUN)'s is a real one
those two camps and XIN YE form
a triangle position
and fake one with the real one
to defend enemy's attack
second, Sun Qian and Mi Fang
keep recruiting troops and horses
to increase the military supply
to prepare for the decisive
battle next year
you said so much
but you still hasn't tell us
when will CAO CAO's army attack
30 day later, with a
tolerance less than 1 or 2 days
why should it be 30 days later
if I were CAO CAO
I will come to attack tomorrow
I agree with you
although I can't the fortune like you do
I still know something about war
speed is key in battling
speed makes a good general
general GUAN is modest
you know war very well
and you are a good general
but, as a military
should follow natural rules
instead of go against them
2 days from now
there will be a Fall rain season
along JINGXIANG region
it will last for 20 days
it will need 3 or 5 day
to get the land dry
sending troops from XU CHANG
need another 3 or 5 days
while CAO CAO's strong army
are all northern riders
they can't fight in muddles
so I said, about 30 days
CAO troops will be here
gentlemen
listen to strategist now
and do your own jobs
remember
what strategist say
are all military orders
Yes, Yes- Yes
according to report
LIU BIAO got ill again
and can't get out of bed
the military issue of JING ZHOU
are all taken care by water
troops general CAI MAO
he's good at water fighting
but unable in fighting on land
at the same time
LIU PEI is recruiting troops
and horses in XIN YE
increase supply to get ready
he's growing day by day
I think we should
attack JING ZHOU at once
and attack LIU PEI
