KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG), what's the point
the good thing is that
my chief is generous
other else, he must punish you
it's good that they left
now we've got new air
zl JING(LU su)
the one who really dispise
Wuhou is not me
it's CAO CAO
I knew how to defeat enemy
but Wuhou didn't ask
I had to keep it in my mind
kept it so hard
KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG), you sit here
I'll be back soon
chief
KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG) insulted me too much
I don't want to banish him
let him leave himself
chief
I blamed KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG) just now
but, but he said
he seem CAO CAO's millions army
as if the ants on the ground
one simple move
can smash the ants into powder
chief
KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG) has an idea
to defeat the enemy
was he provoking me on purpose
he seemed suggest me surrender
on the contrary
he's afraid I would surrender
exactly
let's go
go ask for his advise
wise chief
most of CAO's army
are from the north
after they entered into Jianghan
they can not adapt here
and got sick often
their fighting ability
was lessened 20~30%
second, they travelled so far
day and night
to attack cities and villages
they are devastated now
this lessened their
fighting ability another 20%
third, after their victory
soldiers became proud
while most the new soldiers
are from JING XIANG
they hate CAO CAO for
killing their former master
ruining their homes and
raping their wives and daughters
althought they've
surrendered to CAO on surface
but their heart have never
considering all this
half of CAO's troops are proud
the other half is
the new hatred troops
this lessened their
fighting ability another 20%
moreover, to attack Rivereast
most battles will be on water
water troops from Rivereast
is the No. 1
CAO CAO is building
fighting boats at Dongting
but you have to know that
fighting boats need
water troops to sail
CAO CAO can build huge
fighting boat in a few months
but he can not train competent
water troops in a few months
training the troops is much more
difficult than building boats
while water troops from DONG WU
are all experienced
they stay still for the chance
therefore
the fighting ability of CAO's troops
is lessened another 20~30%
in conclusion
CAO's so-called millions troops
can be seen as only 10% of them
and you will see it with smile
10%, that's about 100,000
strong generals from Sun and Liu
with fighting boats and
water troops to fight CAO
will be like smashing
your speech really inspired me
gather all ministers and
generals of Rivereast tomorrow
to discuss the battling
yes
Sir, cheers
cheers
teacher
are you
chief
teacher, are you
chief
you were tricked by KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG)
CAO CAO hates LIU PEI
the most instead of you
he sees LIU PEI as
his No. 1 enemy
as evil monster
so in this war statement
he mentioned no others
but LIU PEI only
and would go hunting at Rivereast
hunting, what's the prey then
LIU PEI again
LIU PEI is in desperation now
waiting for death hopelessly
the only way he gets is
using the troops of Rivereast
to save his own ass
if you can save him
fine, no problem then
but in fact you can not save him
and you will bring Rivereast into
deadly troubles as well
please reconsider it
my son Quan
mother
it's late night now
why you are still awake
you are still awake too
a moment like this
many people can't sleep either
you are right
Quan
have you forgotten what your
brother said before his death
which pan
ask ZHANG ZHAO when you
can't decide internal affairs
ask ZHOU YU when you
can't decide external affairs
I remember every single word
and will never forget it
then is the attacking of CAO CAO
internal or external affair
external, external risk actually
then why don't you ask ZHOU YU
mother
I don't have to
I know
he's on his way here now
I even know roughly
what he would say to me
after his arrival
but my concern is
not only to fight or to surrender
what else then
division
if half of the officials of
Rivereast support to fight
half of them insist surrenderring
then Rivereast will be divided
if I can't have an idea to
unify all the officials in Rivereast
I don't deserve to be king of it
you make me proud
your late father and brother
will be proud of you too
I can sleep now
governor, governor
ZHANG ZHAO, GU YONG, BU ZHI
and XUE CHONG come to visit
back here late night
I didn't want to disturb anyone
but they come anyway

yes
gentlemen, please be seated
I'll be listening to your advise
do you know Rivereast
will be in trouble now
I've just been back
I have no idea about it
CAO CAO has millions of troops
he intends to go hunting
with our lord at Rivereast
considering the whole situation
we all advise our lord to
surrender to CAO CAO
to avoid the fights and blood
um LU zl JING(LU su)

SUN JIAN to uprise
for 30 years
we've been the rough
hundreds of battles
to build 6 counties in Rivereast
but now
young chief believe
those strategists' saying
and would surrender to CAO
We'd rather die than surrender
you are the governor
you should try to
persuade chief tomorrow
to fight against CAO
never surrender to them
generals

with general DE MOU

but we'll never surrender
we'd rather die than surrender

ZHUGE LIANG came to advise chief

to ally to fight CAO
all officials held
different opinions on this
moreover
ZHUGE LIANG is my brother
so I can't have any comment
hope you can understand
the difficulty
I can understand
but if you have something to say
you may say it now
in brief
surrender, and we may keep peace
fight, and we may lose
do you all share this view
yes, we do

I know what I should do
we'll leave then
all those shouldn't come

report, governor
Strategist LU SU and
ZHUGE LIANG are here
serve tea in the reading room
some JIN(ZHOU YU)
so this is your reading room
yes
then why there is no book here
I bum one when I finish one
I burnt them all as
I've finished them
so no book in my reading room
only four walls left
this word sounds familiar to me
really
as in my cabin at LONG ZHONG
I have one more book than yours
which one
the calendar
if I don't have it
I will forget the time and
history in the village
some JIN(ZHOU YU)
CAO CAO's army is coming to south
to fight or to surrender
officials hold different opinions
chief is expecting you
to decide at the hall tomorrow
to be honest
what's your opinion
in the past, CAO CAO held
his majesty to control vassals
today, CAO CAO hold his majesty
to attack other vassals
and it's even more severe
he has million of troops now
to claim top in this nation
Rivereast is just a small area
and must not able to compete
I've been thinking about this
and decided to ask chief
to surrender to CAO CAO
the realm of SUN has been
established by 3 generations
how can we just give it away
eventually
Rivereast still belongs to Han
people of six counties
are all people of Han
once the battle begins
people's life will be in danger
one hundred years from now
who will be blamed
us
I don't want to make them
destroy my ancestors' graves
some JIN(ZHOU YU)
we have fine troops and
rich food supply in Rivereast
and we have natural barrier
if we fight hard
CAO CAO may not defeat us
what are you laughing at
I was not laughing at you
I was laught at LU Zl JING(LU SU) that
couldn't understand the situation
how can I not see the situation
governor held to surrender
which is reasonable
and proper in time
look
even KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG) agree with me
Zl JING(LU SU), don't insist
KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG)
why do you change your mind now
it not like that
it's just what some JIN(ZHOU YU) said
just inspired me
and made me understand
CAO CAO's good at battling
GONG JIN(ZHOU YU) can't compete him
Only IV BU, YUAN SHAO, LIU BIAO
and my chief four people
could be his competitor
those three are gone now
mu chief alone can't sustain
he can only flee everywhere
to avoid the war
I have a idea
to make Rivereast not
to cede territory and comply
neither to contribute money
but only to sail a boat
and send two men to XU CHANG
CAO CAO will cancel his
fighting plan at once
it can't be wrong
only two men
yes
Rivereast lose those two men
is like a leave flying in a wood
or one rice missed in a barn
what kind of those two men
two uncomparable beauties
what kind of beauties
those years
CAO CAO's fought everywhere
taking cities and villages
every time he arrived at a place
he gathered the local beauties
what he wanted most to have is
the two daughters of
Qiao's in Rivereast
the elder one is called DA QIAO
the younger one called XIAO QIAO
it is said that
they both have gift of music
and breath-taking beauty
I heard that
on his birthday last year
he took his cup and vowed to god
I have two wishes in my life
one is to unite the nation
and claim my name
there other is to gain the
two ladies from Rivereast as
companies of the rest of my life
if those two wishes come true
I will have no regret to die
CAO CAO insulted me too much
why are you so mad
I recall that
FAN Ll to make sure
the peace of YUE, he
sent the beauty XI SHI to FU CHAI
finally he helped GOU JIAN
to clean the shame of
being servant for 3 years
and destroy WU nation
they are just two ladies
why not
KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG)
DA QIAO is the wife of SUN CE
and XIAO QIAO, GONG JIN(ZHOU YU)'s wife
I didn't know this before
forgive my nonsense
pardon me, pardon me
terrible, this is terrible
what now
I dare not speak
I dare not speak any more
If I've offended general
I'll be totally dead
speak, I said, speak
now that you order me
I will say it at risk of my life
CAO CAO
if he know DA QIAO is SUN GE's wife
and XIAO QIAO is your wife
then he will want them more
why
CAO CAO has a bad hobby
he sees young lady uncomplete
and others wives as
the most desirable ladies
such as ZHANG JI's wife ZOU
YUAN SHU's wife WU
IV BU's wife DIAO CHAN
were all taken by CAO CAO
his shameful behavior
and weird hobby
are infamous to everyone
general, be careful
CAO traitor
you are my enemy now
KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG)
right now at GONG JIN(ZHOU YU)'s place
your word was too strong
no wonder people say
your tongue can kill as well
and kill skillfully
zl JING(LU su)
what mistake did I make
since I entered Rivereast territory
I've been very careful
when taking every step
to be honest
I even didn't know
where to rest my hand
you just pretended you are
but you are provoking
some JIN(ZHOU YU) actually
that's not true
zl JING(LU su)
you should be an honest man
KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG)
you really didn't know
DA QIAO is SUN GE's wife
and XIAO QIAO is ZHOU YU's
ah, about this
of course I knew
so you were pretending then
zl JING(LU su)
we only know that CAO CAO
has we rid personality
he don't like young ladies
but he likes others wives
this weird hobby is infamous
am I right
CAO CAO has 12 wives
ten of which
used to be others' wives
even so you still needn't
make GONG JIN(ZHOU YU) mad like that
he's to blame for
not telling me the truth
actually he's decided
in his mind already
that he would fight CAO CAO
but he just keep saying that he
would surrender to CAO CAO
quit disposing troops for peace
wasn't that teasing you
and me on purpose
if ZhOU GONG JIN(ZHOU YU)
can be such a gentlemen like you
tell nothing but the truth
I will respect him all my heart
how dare I provoke him
XIAO QIAO
yes
I am so luck to have
you in my life
husband
the politics discussion today
in front of all the public
promise me to stay calm
I will not be too mad
but I will show them
what's Rivereast get
to surprise ZHUGE LIANG
alright
go, do the packing now
madame
governor just got back yesterday
you are right
but he's leaving again
yes
chief's order
all officials are sent for
politics discussion at the hall
CAO CAO in the name
of Han's prime minister
but he's a traitor in nature
chief is the talent given by god
and he carry on his father
and brother's realm
with fine troops and food supply
he's the king of Rivereast
all he need is
a good timing given by god
to lead army to central plain
to take JING XIANG
and claim JIANG HAN
and establish the realm
and right now is the
good timing given by CAO CAO
all officials in Rivereast should
nod their head and celebrate
to laugh to the sky
CAO CAO's coming this time
violates four military taboos
may cause his lose
first, his northern
territory hasn't been set yet
XI LIANG MA TENG, HAN SUI
are both enemies of CAO troops
once the battle begins
XI LIANG army will attack XU CHANG
second
northern soldiers are
not good at water fighting
if they dare to give up their
horses and take boats
to fight with us
they will pay the price for this
third
the cold in winter
causes lack of food for
both horses and people
fourth
troops travel across
central plain too long
away from home and
can't adapt to new climate
they can get sick easily
if CAO CAO violate those four
he will lose without doubt
I need only several ten
thousands of fine troops
marching to XIA KOU
within half a year
I will defeat CAO troops
governor, you are right
we all will follow governor
to defeat the enemy
we all will follow governor
to defeat the enemy
thank god for giving me GONG JIN(ZHOU YU)
from now on
anyone in Rivereast
who dare mention surrender to CAO
would suffer like this desk
yes
I now appoint ZHOU YU
as the general captain
CHENG PU as vise captain
yes
LU SU as strategist
lead 50,000 fine troops
marching to XIA KOU
get ready to fight CAO troops
Yes.yes
anyone
who dare to violate my order
will be punished according to
the 7 prohibitions and 54 rules
general captain, catch the sword
I am taking order
teacher
chief
this big battle
whether food supply or equipment
other supplies and civilians
we all need a lot
it will cost a lot
I want to appoint you as
the management official
be in charge of all kinds of
supplies to Rivereast troops
chief, you forget
I suggested before that
to surrender to CAO
but I understand
all officials of Rivereast
no matter held to fight
or surrender
all with your royalty
all have the realm
of Rivereast in mind
teacher
yes
there are 6 states and
92 counties in Rivereast
taxation of money and food
farms and people
are all your concern
of all the officials of Rivereast
who else
can do better than you in
financing and management
who else
knows better of the cans,
horses and boats than you
recruitment of civil servants
and the gather and use of money
even before I was born
you'd been the general manager
of Rivereast already
without your hard working and
support during those 30 years
it's impossible for my father and
my brother to built this realm
it's possible for Rivereast to
be as prosperous as it is today
teacher
I beg you to assist me
to support general captain ZHOU
defeating CAO troops
to protect the realm of Rivereast
chief
teacher, please rise
chief
ZHANG ZHAO, take order
yes
I appoint you as general
manager of DONG WU
be in charge of all the
supplies of DONG WU army
I appoint GU YONG, BU ZHI
XUE CONG
as vice generals
to assist ZHANG ZHAO
we take orders
this is the Rivereast stamp
from my father and my brother
perform with this stamp is as if
with father and brother's order
anyone dare to violate will be
punished as the 7 prohibitions
and 54 rules of Rivereast too
yes
ZHANG ZHAO, take the stamp
ZHANG ZHAO takes order
some JIN(ZHOU YU)
general captain
I've never been so
happy as I am today
zl JING(LU su)
I've never seen you
so happy before
happy, I am happy
today my chief is really great
with his words
he united all officials
of Rivereast
to stand together to fight CAO
our chief is great
and everyone in Rivereast
will unite as well
but
LIU PEI and KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG)
will they stand with us
what do you mean by this
I knew you invited KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG)
and it's you who first
proposed to ally LIU PEI
fight together to defeat CAO
I agree with you as well
but since we decided to fight
or maintain peace
ally of SUN and LIU will begin
the key issue now is
to ally
who's going to go first
gather troops to fight CAO
who's troops is to be disposed
don't worry
let me make it clear
that is
when SUN and LIU allies
who's going to lead
you are right
in my opinion
of course Rivereast should lead
but KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG) might disagree
on the contrary
he might think this way
if Rivereast wins
he will take JING ZHOU and stay
if CAO CAO wins
he will take Rivereast
zl JING(LU su)
am I right
you are to the point
KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG) has deep insight
he's the risk for Rivereast
in the future
I have to kill him
to get rid of the risk
no,no, no, absolutely not
the battle is coming
we can't kill our friend
instead of the enemy
besides
LIU PEl's troops is
an aid to Rivereast
killing KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG) now
is like curling your own arm now
captain, you can't do that
don't worry
since you insist not to kill him
then I'll not kill him now
you were teasing me
I can leave him alive
but still I can't leave
him become the risk
my intention is
please have a plan to
summon him to Rivereast
to serve chief
some JIN(ZHOU YU)
general captain
this is extremely difficult
very difficult
I knew it very difficult
but you always have a way
you are the strategist
this is the first task I ask
from you
please conquer the difficulty
try your best to make it happen
I will never convince him
but
ZHUGE JIN is KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG)'s brother
if let him persuade KONG MING(ZHUGE LIANG)
to come
it might be working
no problem
