Lu Bu

Prime Minister

I've led the army here Not to take Xuzhou

But to render a service for you

I hear you intend to have a marriage alliance with Yuan Shu

You know Yuan Shu styled himself emperor and committed treason

Why do you submitted to him And risk losing the merits you won

From waging your successful punitive expedition against the rtaitor Dongzhuo

If Xiapei is taken It'll be too late to reg

I'm advising you to surrender now And support the Han's reign

In so doing,you'll still rank among the marquis Please think it carefully

Cao Cao

Please withdraw your troops And give me some time to think it over

You traitor

I've already seen you through

Your pleasing words & smooth manner can deceive nobody.There you go

Chengong,what are you doing?

Chen Gong.I swear I'll kill you

Why do you have such deep hatred for Cao Cao?

Cao Cao came from afar And cannot hold out long

I propose you take up a position outside

Leaving me to maintain the defense with the remainder of our men

If he attacks you,I'll come out And attack at his rear ranks

If he attacks the city you can come to our aid

This will place them between the horns

In a few days

Their stores will fail

We can beat them off

Well it seems a good idea

Tell the men to carry padded clothes with them.As it's getting cold

So Chen Gong was here again

How could you go out with only a few troops,leaving behind

Your wife and daughter your other solders and officers

If the worst comes. Can I meet my husband again?

Fall in

Please give orders

You've been hesitating three days

Cao's troops are all round the city We must break it through

Before it is too late Or we'll be quite hemmed in

General

You can't go General

How can Gaoshun and Chen Gong defend the city

If anything goes wrong you'll regret such a decision

What I'm going to do is to cut off Cao Cao's grain supply

I was abandoned by you in Chang'an

Later was fortunate enough to rejoin you

Who has thought you would leave me again

General

Let's hurry! Let's get going

General

I'd rather maintain stubborn defense

Lord

I've got an idea

I hear Cao Cao is short of provisions And sent men to Xuchang for supply

They'll be there at any time

You can leak a crack force to intercept them

My plan is too good to be ignored Hope you'll make a haste decision

Cao Cao is cunning crafty.He is able to cut off other's grain supplies

How is it possible he takes no precautions for it

We can't take reckless action

We'll die and nobody will know our burying place

Why don't you ask for help from Yuan Shu

He's in Huainan.If you mention the renewal of that marriage alliance

Right!If Yuan Shu can send us relief troops

We can coordinate from within with the rtoops from ouside

These Cao Cao's army will surely be defeated

Who's it?

It's me.Your wife!

Xusi

Wangkai

General

Have they come back?

Those two persons have gone few days Why isn't there any news from them?

General

Since Xusi and Wnagkai were here the day before yesterday

You've been reckless

Drinking too much without a single word to me

You're so depressed I'm overwhelmed with sorrow

Why it's not that I don't want to speak to you but...

That they don't let me do so

What?

A few days ago,Xusi and Wangkai made a proposal,said

Yuan Shu is now very powerful in Huaninan

We're now in difficult situation When shouldn't I mention the previous

Marriage alliance And ask him to help us out?

As Yuan Shu's help may offer an opportunity to raise the siege

I agreed to their propose

You should have told me about such an important matter

General,Xusi and Wangkai came back from Shouchun they're at the gate

General

Speak up

Yes

I saw Yuan Shu. I gave him your letter

Yuan accused you of killing his messenger and canceling the marriage

Now you came to ask for help and thought you were unreliable

He said if you were not hemmed in by your enemy and in imminent danger

You'd never have through of renewing the proposal of marriage

He said he would send troops after your daughter had arrived there

That's the final

How can we send the girl?

Cao Cao's troops are all round the city

If it hadn't been for Zhangliao Gaoshun last time

Who charged into Liubei camps,and fought a way for me

We were dead before we get to Shouchun

Our way back General Haomeng brought up the rear

Zhangfei captured him,He was handed over to Cao Cao

I'm sure Cao Cao's on alert now since he knows our plan

So I wold propose... unless...

What?

Nobody else but you yourself can break through the siege

Escort your daughter in person

What? That's too much...

Why not set out right away?

This is an ill omened day you must not try today

Tomorrow eveniing will be a good time to set out

Good

Make it tomorrow

Daughter of Lu Bu

Mother

Mother

Order.Whoever let Lubu away will be put to death without fall

Charge

Don't cry

Father

I've never imagined I would be in such a disastrous situation

Zhang Yang Governor of Henei led his troops from Dong-shi

In attempt to rescue Lu Bu,but my General Yang Zhou killed him

Though Zhang Yang is dead still Yuan Shao threatens me in north

Liu Biao.Zhang Xiu in the east

The long besieged Xiapi can't be taken soon

I intend to withdraw my troops back to the capital what do you think of?

No,you shouldn't do that

Lu Bu has lost much And his sprint is broken

The spirit of the leader expresses that his men

With Lu Bu broken Chen Gong without decision

It only need a sharp attack And we'll surely get hold of Lvbu

I've a plan to take Xiapi at once It beats 200,000 troops

Do you mean drowning the city with the water of Yi and Si River?

that's it

To flood the city

Report!Cao Cao has used the river water to flood the city

Report!The flood has drowned the south and north gates

Report!The city is got drowned

Only the east gate remains clear of water

I've nothing to be afraid of my Red-Hare horse

Which can go as well through the water as over the land

My dear,please

I've injured myself with wine and women I look so wan and sallow

General

No more drinking from now on

Guard!

Pass my order form today on

Whoever drinks in the city will be put to death

Hurry up,Go over there

We need to reinforce here

Chen Gong

Pass my order.From today on

Whoever drinks in the city will be put to death

Hou Chen

General

What are you doing here instead of reinforcing the city wall?

General,I've seied back my 15 lost horses

Fine

Fine

Thanks to your prowess I've got back my lost horses

The generals and officers are coming to offer congratulation

I've brewed good wine And I dare not drink alone

My prowess

I've just passed an order to prohibit drinking

But you're gathering here to drink

Is it an act of your collaboration with Cao Cao to deal with me

Do you order the prohibition of drinking?

Guard! Yes

Take him out to be executed. Yes

Please spare his life

I'll spare him for your sake But he should get one hundred strokes

Now we're confronted with formidable enemy and we need men to fight

So you also know we confront a formidable enemy?

Well.The number of strokes can be reduced to one half

You'll say no more

If not for you I should have been pat to death

All he cares for his wife,there's no pity for any one else

We're on more than the weeds by the roadside

The city is besieged The water is drowning us

We may die any day

Lu Bu has neither a sense of humanity or of right.Let's leave him

Leave?The best we can do would be to size him and hand him over to Cao Cao

Seize Lu Bu and hand over him to Cao cao?

All Lu Bu trusts in is his Red-Hare horse

If you two will betray the gate And seize Lu Bu

I'll steal the horse and go to Cao Cao

As soon as you got the horse

Wei Xu and I will make pretence of pursuing you but only pretence

We must occupy Xiapi today

Charge!

Cao Cao's army stormed the city from daylight till noon

Lu Bu suffered heavy casualties

Cao's troops withdrew leaving

Lu Bu battled soldiers lying about on the ground floor of the city wall

What are you doing to me?

We have captured Lu Bu

Betrayer!

The White Gate Tower

Come with me to the gate tower

Afrer you

Lord

Too tightly tied!

Too tightly tied!

A tiger should be really tightly tied

I've treated you all well How could you betray me?

You lent a realy ear to your wife While turned a deaf ear to us

Did that mean you treat us well?

You used to hurt And whip people at will

Was it ashamed of you to say that you treated us well

Lu Bu

Now that you're captured Is there anything you've got to say

You've lost you weight recently lord

Your refusal to surrender caused me to lose weight

Gao Shun

What else do you have to say?

If not take him out to be executed

Chen Gong how are you getting on?

Did you think that we might meet each other when you deserted me that day?

I left you because I found you harbored ill-intentions

Did I?

But what made you serve Lu Bu alone?

It's true Lu Bu is a fool

But he's neither wicked nor treacherous like you

You say you're able enough and clever

But how is that you have come to such a bad end?

This man would not follow my advice

If had done so you wouldn't be able to capture me

Chen Gong.The

Then

What do you think you ought to do about today?

There's death for me today

Well.Don't you care

What will happen to your mother and wife?

It's said that he who rules with due rigard to filial piety

Does not harm a man's family

He who would show benevolence

Does not cut off the sacrifices at a man's tomb

My mother & wife are in your hangs

Chen Gong

But since I'm your prisoner I'm ready to die without worried

Chen Gong

Chen Gong

I'm willing to give up my official post and follow you

I'd rather fail world than they fail me

Let his mother and wife be escorted to Xuxhang and he looked after

Whoever is arrogant must die!

Liu Bei,you sit there an honored guest while I lie bound at your feet

Why don't you say a word in my favor

Liu Bei

Lord,your only trouble is myself

And I am on your aside now

You take the lead,and I'll help you with us,the world is at our feet

Liu Bei,what do you think of it

You're willing to forget the events of Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo

What?

You're willing to forget the events of Ding Yuan and Ding Zhuo

Soldiers

Take him out to be hanged.Have his head off and put before the public

Liu Bei

You're the most unfaithful traitor

Haven't you forgotten that my arrow hit the mark?

Arrow hit the mark?

Lu Bu!You fool

Death is but death why are you so scared at it?

This man looks so familiar

Don't you remember our meeting in Puyang?

So you remember me

Yes,It is the pity

Pity for what?

The fire that day was not big enough to burn you up!

Stop.Please!

You must keep him,as he is a loyal and honest man

I know him well as loyal and righteous

I'll shoulder the responsibility upon my life

I also know him to be loyal and good I was just testing him

In the winter of the third year of Jian'an period(198A.D)

Cao Cao finally managed to get rid of Lu Bu.his hidden trouble

Recruited General Zhang Liao

He appointed General Che Zhou as the governor of Xuzhou

Since then,Cao Cao grew stronger and enjoyed a higher prestige
