1
00:00:26,240 --> 00:00:29,995
Please
2
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:40,316
Lu Su has often
mentioned your talents
3
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:45,038
It's a great pleasure to meet you
And I'd like to your instruction
4
00:00:46,160 --> 00:00:48,117
I'm neither clever nor learned
I'm sorry to hear such words
5
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:51,196
You've been at Xinye these day
6
00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:53,597
And you helped Liu Bei fight
against Cao Cao there
7
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,596
You must know exactly
his military strength
8
00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:02,839
Could you tell me how
many men has he in all
9
00:01:04,960 --> 00:01:09,955
Horse and foot, land and marine
He has one million or more troops
10
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,796
Is there any falsehood?
11
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,677
No, Cao Cao had originally
200, 000 Qingzhou army
12
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,356
He gained 500, 000 or
600, 000 when Yuan Shao fell
13
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,076
He has 300, 000 or 400, 000
nearly recruited in the capital
14
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,916
Recently he has got 200, 000
or 300, 000 Jingzhou
15
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:39,718
So if these be reckoned up
the total is above 1. 5 million
16
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:45,235
I said ore million for
I was afraid of frightening you
17
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:02,759
Lu Su
18
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:04,476
Then how many generals in his army
19
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:09,119
His administrators and advisors
capable and veteran generals
20
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:10,715
are more than oneortwothousand
21
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:16,235
What will be his next move since
he has overcome Jingzhou and Chu
22
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,036
He's camped along the Yangtye River
and is collecting warships
23
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,997
So it's quite obvious his intention
is to invade yor territory
24
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:25,835
Since that's his intention
25
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,639
It's a case of fight or peace
I wish you would decide that for me
26
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:41,438
Civil wars lasted for a long time
and many heroes have emerged
27
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,595
Now Cao Cao has won for himself
great and wide fame and renown
28
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:51,916
Liu Bei tried to fight against him
but he's repeatedly been defeated
29
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,357
So I wish to measure your forces
30
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,517
If you can ventur to meet
him with your troops
31
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:01,518
Better break the ties with him
32
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,079
If the force is weak
33
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,840
You have to yield and turn your
face to the north and serve Cao Cao
34
00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:17,675
I had a talk with those advisors
in Jiangdong this morning
35
00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,199
I found all of your advisors would
like to submit to Cao Cao
36
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:28,200
In this case, why don't you follow
will of Heaven and desire of people
37
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:31,918
To seek momentary ease
38
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:47,639
If what you've said is true
why doesn't Liu Bei submit
39
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:54,954
Well you know Tian Heng
of the state of Qi
40
00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,840
He retreated to an island with 500
men and refused to submit
41
00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,756
All of them finally died
42
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:03,919
Liu Bei is also an offspring of
the imperial family and
43
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:05,117
uncle of the emperor
44
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,238
He's a man of great renown
and every man looks up to him
45
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,554
But his army is small and strength
is weak, so he's defeated
46
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,237
He'd rather follow Tian Heng to die
47
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,356
than submit to the national traitor
48
00:04:28,280 --> 00:04:29,999
You've gone too far
49
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,398
I've repeatedly warned you but you
just refused to take my advice
50
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,155
Fortunately my lord is
too largeminded
51
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,676
to blame you in front of you
52
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:45,796
you spoke to him
most contemptuously
53
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,236
What a sensitive man he is
54
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,357
I know how to destroy Cao Cao army
55
00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,958
But he never asks me
so I said nothing
56
00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,594
If you do have good plan to destroy
Cao Cao, I'll beg my lord to ask you
57
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,595
In my eyes, Cao Cao's great army
58
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:14,759
is merely a swarm of ants
59
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:20,157
I've but to life my hand
and they'll be crushed
60
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,234
Just a moment
I'll go and tell my lord
61
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,518
Zhuge Liang has insulted
me too deeply
62
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,476
I've blamed him so
63
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,517
But he laughed and said
you were too sensitive
64
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:50,316
It seems he has the
plan to destroy Cao Cao
65
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:54,996
He won't say it by himself
why don't you ask for his advice
66
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:04,837
So he has a ready plan
His words were meant to provoke me
67
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,038
I did despise him for a moment
and it has really held thing up
68
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:19,556
Well, let's go
69
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:23,076
Master Zhuge Liang
70
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,520
Please forgive me for
my offending you
71
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:34,077
Attendant
72
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:34,998
Yes
73
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:36,999
Get a banquet at the rear chamber
in honor of Master Zhuge Liang
74
00:06:37,280 --> 00:06:38,077
Yes
75
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:39,157
Master, please
76
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:40,638
After you
77
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:51,159
Are you also fond of music?
78
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,800
Master Zhuge Liang has an excellent
knowledge of classic music
79
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:13,840
When he was in the retirement at
Longzhong,"The Song of Liang Fu"
80
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,994
No, I only like it
81
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:26,196
Come on Master
82
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,239
The pity is Zhou Yu is absent
83
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:41,197
Otherwise you'll have
another music loer here
84
00:08:43,680 --> 00:08:45,239
I know well Zhou Yu is elegand
85
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,439
The children's rhyme in the
south of the river has it
86
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,555
Anything goes wrong with the music
Zhou Yu is the one to ask
87
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:53,994
But I don't know where he's now
88
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:56,598
I've sent him to drill the
navel force at the Lake Poyang
89
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,117
Master, please
90
00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:18,318
Years ago, heroes rose up
local lords of different areas
91
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:22,634
Now, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Liu Biao
92
00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,117
and others are gone
93
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,640
Only Liu Bei and I remain
94
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:35,598
I'll never allow lord of Wu to be
controlled by someone else
95
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:40,918
But Liu Bei has been
defeated lately
96
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,839
What can he do now against
Cao Cao's force?
97
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:55,519
Though defeated, Liu Bei still
Has Guan Yu lead 10, 000 crack troops
98
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:59,118
Liu Qi has another 10, 000
troops in Jiangxia
99
00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:04,757
Besides, Cao Cao's army is far from
home and the men are worn out
100
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:06,599
They made a cast effort to
come up with my master
101
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:10,117
And the light horses marched three
hundred Li in one day and night
102
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,400
This was the final kick of crossbow
spring and the arrow was not swift
103
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:14,797
enough to penetrate even the silk
The army can do no more
104
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:17,080
Besides, they're from the north
unskilled on water warfare
105
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,719
Men of Jingzhou are unwilling
to help Cao Cao
106
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,595
If you and my master will fight
with one heat against Cao Cao
107
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:25,599
He'll certainly be defeated
108
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:28,796
Then he'll retreat northwards
109
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,075
So your country and Jingzhou
will be strong
110
00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:34,796
And firmly established
111
00:10:40,560 --> 00:10:44,474
Success or failure hinges on battle
make the decision quickly
112
00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:56,316
Your words have opened up
the road clearly
113
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,796
I've decided and have
no further doubts
114
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:04,236
Come on, have some more drinks
115
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:22,996
To tell you frankly, I haven't
drunk so mush lately
116
00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,676
Lord
117
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:49,157
You've fallen into the trap
set by Zhuge Liang
118
00:11:51,680 --> 00:11:58,359
If you're going to attack Cao Cao
compare yourself with Yuan Shao?
119
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,199
In those day, when
Cao's army is weak
120
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,274
Yet he can overcome
Yuan Shao at one stroke
121
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:11,359
Now he's commanding one million
Troops, how can you take it lightly
122
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:19,879
If you listen to Zhuge Liang's
advice and engage in a war
123
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:28,595
That's like carrying fuel to a fire
124
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:40,879
Liu Bei was defeated, intending to
borrow our troops against the enemy
125
00:12:47,560 --> 00:12:50,758
Why should you be
made use of by him?
126
00:13:03,680 --> 00:13:05,000
Lord...
127
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:54,517
Lord. your wise decision should not
be shaken by those who wish to
128
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,355
secure the safety of their families
I hope you'll refuse their advice
129
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,480
If you hesitate, you'll be
misled by them
130
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:26,000
Please leave me alone
I must think it over carefully
131
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:28,879
Yes
132
00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:27,477
Lord, here is Dowager Lady Wu
133
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,954
Mother
134
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,637
Mother, I'm quite well, don't worry
135
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,559
I hear recently you
can neither eat nor sleep
136
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:19,838
What's worring you so much
137
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,319
Cao Cao's army is threatening
to annex Dongwu
138
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:29,679
Officials have different opinions
on fight or surrender
139
00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:34,877
If we fight, we might fail
140
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:39,596
If we surrender
Cao Cao might reject it
141
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:42,239
So I can't make the decision now
142
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,279
Have you forgot the
last words of my sister
143
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,638
For internal affairs
consult Zhang zhao
144
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:58,755
For external affairs Zhou Yu, why
don't you ask advice from Zhou Yu?
145
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:05,880
Thank you for reminding me
I've nearly forgot it as I'm busy
146
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:11,995
You must take care of yourself
no matter how important it is
147
00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,277
If anything should go wrong
148
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:18,479
How can I be worthy
of my dead sister
149
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,799
Mother, you rest assured
150
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,277
I'll send for zhou yu immediately
151
00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:43,958
Zhou Yu
152
00:17:55,720 --> 00:18:01,318
My dear
153
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:03,359
The lord has just sent for
a person to go to Panyang
154
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:04,837
He wants you to be back soon
155
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:06,759
And you're back now
156
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,839
Cao Cao's army is pressing on us
and the is hesitating
157
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:13,400
I'm really worrying about it
158
00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:19,559
My dear, you must be tired
159
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:25,995
My good wife, I've hurried back and
was missing you all on my way here
160
00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:27,716
You just pay lip services
161
00:18:29,800 --> 00:18:34,716
I know every inch of you
you're so occupied
162
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,996
with the sate and military affairs
as to forget food and sleep
163
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,157
How should you have time to
be immersed in love?
164
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:49,956
Here's his Excellency Zhang Zhao
165
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,877
You're just back, why not leave
us in peace for a moment?
166
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,356
Well, tell them to go back
167
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,879
I won't see anyone tonight
as I'll be with my wife
168
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:14,355
Well you may go
169
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:28,479
Chief commander
170
00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:29,877
Well, please
171
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:31,557
Chief commander, please
172
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:37,518
Please
173
00:19:39,360 --> 00:19:43,639
Chief commander
174
00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,117
Zhang Zhao, if anything to say
please go ahead
175
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:58,117
Have you beard of
our terrible danger?
176
00:20:00,360 --> 00:20:01,999
I've heard nothing
177
00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:08,517
Cao Cao's armies are encamped
along the Yangze River
178
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:15,759
He sent a letter yesterday to ask
lord to hunt with him in jiangxia
179
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:21,796
He may intend to annex this country
details of scheme are till a secret
180
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:29,960
So we advised the lord to submit
181
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,198
for the time being to avoid
the calamites of war
182
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:39,279
But Lu Su brought here Zhuge Liang
183
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,514
and Liu Bei's military
counselor form jiangxia
184
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:48,315
He wants to avenge himself for
recent defeat, inciting lord for war
185
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:57,318
Lu Su, persist in supporting him
we hope final decision be made
186
00:21:01,360 --> 00:21:04,558
Are you all fro that opinion?
187
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,280
Yes, perfectly
188
00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:15,239
I've also wanted to
submit for a long time
189
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:21,594
You may retire now
190
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,596
We'll see our lord tomorrow
I'll make up his mind for him
191
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:27,996
Please
192
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:41,796
The civil officials are
for war or submission?
193
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:53,359
What's your idea?
194
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,878
Our lord has been here in Jiangdong
for three generations
195
00:22:00,120 --> 00:22:02,919
To the north, there is the river
and to the south a vast land
196
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:08,679
We've both worthy lord and
wellknown generals
197
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:11,756
How can we submit
to the Han's traitor?
198
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:24,759
General Cheng Pu
and other generals are here
199
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:38,076
Chief commander
200
00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:39,117
General Huang
201
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:41,596
General Cheng
202
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:42,637
Please...
203
00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:57,796
Do you know our country is about to
be ruled over by someone else?
204
00:23:00,360 --> 00:23:01,476
I've heard nothing
205
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:02,957
Chief commander
206
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,838
We helped General Sun to
establish his authority here
207
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:13,916
We fought many battles before we
gained six prefectures in Jiangdong
208
00:23:14,360 --> 00:23:18,240
The civil officials have gone so far
as to advise lord submit to Cao Cao
209
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,478
It's really shameful
and pitiful of course
210
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:24,399
We'd rather die than surrender
211
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:30,117
We hope you'll advise
the lord to fight
212
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,400
And you may depend on our
struggling to the last man
213
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,558
Are you unanimous, generals
214
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,078
None of us is willing to surrender
215
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,678
They may take our heads
but we'll never surrender
216
00:23:57,880 --> 00:23:59,200
Fine
217
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:06,597
I want to fight out with Cao Cao
How could we think of submission?
218
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:13,118
You may retire now
219
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:17,794
We'll see the lord tomorrow
and I'll settle his doubts
220
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:19,835
Please
221
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,199
Chief commander, goodbye
222
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,315
Chief commander
223
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:38,637
My brother Zhegu Liang
has come from Jiangxia
224
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:40,115
He said Liu Bei wants to ally
with our lord against Cao Cao
225
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,398
The civil and military
officials hold different opinions
226
00:24:43,360 --> 00:24:47,320
As my brother is an emissary
I dare not say much on either side
227
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,679
Were awaiting your decision
228
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:01,196
What do you think about it?
229
00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:14,194
Submission is an easy way to safety
result of war is hard to foretell
230
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:22,799
I'll make up my mind, we'll meet
at the lords residence tomorrow
231
00:25:24,360 --> 00:25:26,636
Well, officials and generals
232
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,598
I've made the decision
233
00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:33,675
We'll see the lord tomorrow and
the matter will be fully debated
234
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:37,956
See you tomorrow
235
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:58,719
My dear
236
00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:01,997
Well, I've seen them off
the officials and officers
237
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:03,915
Nobody will come to disturb us
238
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:07,639
Not sure
239
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,158
Lu Su is coming
240
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,279
You see?
241
00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:22,274
The country is in danger
You two are so pleased here
242
00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:25,839
Say no more, please invite
Zhuge Liang to come in
243
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:31,316
Good, I'll let you two enjoy
yourselves for a moment
244
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,518
I haven't played the Qin and
Zheng for a long time
245
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:04,677
Sorry to have troubled you
246
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,436
Master Zhuge Liang has been
waiting for quite a long time
247
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,199
Please
248
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:41,076
Chief commander
249
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:44,994
Cao Cao is now encamped
along the river
250
00:28:46,680 --> 00:28:48,956
The lord can't make the decision
251
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,278
What's your opinion?
252
00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:01,956
Cao Cao is ordering the lording about
in the name of the emperor
253
00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,080
And he's quite stron now
We'll incur risks if attack him
254
00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,716
Opposition means defeat and
submission means peace
255
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:10,357
I've made the determination to
256
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,078
to advise the lord to surrender
257
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:22,917
Master Zhuge Liang, please
258
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:27,680
Please
259
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:29,875
You're wrong
260
00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:32,717
This country has been under the
same rule for there generations
261
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,118
and can't be suddenly given
up to someone else
262
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:39,715
We depend on you to
defend the country
263
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,877
How can you adopt the
view of those weakling?
264
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,114
There're many people in the
six prefectures of Jiangdong
265
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,075
If I bring the calamities
of war upon them
266
00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:05,796
Are the people there
going to blame me?
267
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,358
With your bravery, wisdom and
the strength of our country
268
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:12,718
I don't think Cao Cao is
certain to realize his desire
269
00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:19,600
Why are you laughing,master?
270
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:24,038
I'm laughing at Lu Su who knows
nothing of the affairs of the day
271
00:30:25,960 --> 00:30:27,917
Master, what do you mean?
272
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:33,435
Well, the intention to submit
is perfectly reasonable
273
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:43,196
Cao Cao is an excellent commander
He's so good that nobody is his peer
274
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:45,797
Those have tried but have all
been exterminated
275
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,559
Liu Bei is an exception, didn't know
the situation, and against him
276
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:53,954
Result is he has to flee to Jiangxia
nobody knowing what'll happen
277
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,557
Your decision to
surrender to Cao Cao
278
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,358
While safety of wives and children
ensured, and riches and honor
279
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:08,595
Dignity of country is left to chance
and fate, it's not worth considering
280
00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:12,834
Are you going to make our lord
kneel before such a rebel?
281
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,880
Don't be annoyed
Lu Su, I've got a plan
282
00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:24,236
You don't have to yield territory
or surrender official seals
283
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,997
Cao Cao's one million
troops will retreat
284
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:34,237
What's your good idea?
285
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:40,236
You just send a messenger
and a little boat
286
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,114
to ferry the two persons
across the river
287
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:45,794
As soon as Cao Cao gets these
two persons under his hand
288
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:50,194
His army would drop their weapons
furl their banners and retreat
289
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,198
These two persons mean
nothing to Jiangdong
290
00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,598
Like a leaf from a tree
or a grain of millet from a granary
291
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,796
Who are these two persons?
292
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,717
When I was living at Longzhong
293
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,516
They told me Cao Cao built a
pavilion by the River Zhang
294
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,517
It was named the Bronze Bird
Pavilion, which was magnificent
295
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,680
He sought throughout country for
most beautiful women to put them in
296
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,838
Cao Cao is intrinsically a lecher
297
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,920
Hearing there are two famous
beauties in the Qiao family
298
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:35,716
The elder is Big Oiao and
the younger is Little Qiao
299
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:39,999
They're so beautiful that birds
would alight and fishes drown
300
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,315
Flowers blush for shame
at the sight of them
301
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:49,078
Cao Cao has sworn he only wants
two things in his world
302
00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:53,354
The first is the imperial throne
303
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:57,277
And the second is the sight of the
two women in Bronze Bird Pavilion
304
00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:58,596
for his hater years, with these two
things he could die without regret
305
00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:10,877
Cao Cao is now threatening south of
Yangtze River with his huge army
306
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:14,597
His real intention is to
get these two beauties
307
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:19,039
Why don't you buy them from their
father for any large sum of money
308
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:20,675
to present them over to Cao Cao?
309
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,714
When he has these two women
he's certainly satisfied
310
00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:27,038
and will withdraw his army
311
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:33,714
How do you know
he wants these two women?
312
00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:44,637
Cao Cao's younger son Cao Zhi
313
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:47,158
is very clever and an able writer
314
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,279
Cao Cao asked him to write a poem
315
00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:52,517
an ode to the Bronze Bird Pavilion
316
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:54,680
Theme of this poem is his family
would have imperial throne
317
00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:56,760
And he pledged to possess
these two women
318
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:04,200
Can you recite the poem,master?
319
00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:10,636
I remember the poem
as I admire it greatly
320
00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:16,797
Can you try to recite it now?
321
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,635
I'll try to recite it
322
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:29,639
Let me follow in the footsteps of
enlightened ruler I may rejoice
323
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:33,796
I may gladden my heart by
ascending the storied terrace
324
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:40,197
On the banks of the
rolling River Zhang
325
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:45,557
Whence ample fresh fruits could
be beholden in the garden beyond
326
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,198
Established are two towers
On either flank they arise
327
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:53,994
One named Jade Dragon
And the other Golden Phoenix
328
00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:59,196
He would seize the two Qiao's
beautiful ladies of the southeast
329
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,155
Morning and evening
Rejoice with them thus he might
330
00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,878
Look down, there is the grand
beauty of an imperial city
331
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:11,274
And the rolling vapors
remain floating beneath
332
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:20,119
What fortune, what beauty
bounded only by the universe
333
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:21,398
Wide and spacious as
the Heaven and the earth
334
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:24,116
Bright as the glory of
the sun and moon
335
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:27,075
Ever honorable and ever enduring
336
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:35,394
The rulers shall live to the age
of the eastern emperor
337
00:35:35,720 --> 00:35:39,157
My desire is that endure
forever these towers
338
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:44,837
And that joy shall never
cease through all the ages
339
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:51,238
You old rebel, you've gone
too far as to insult me
340
00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:58,399
In the past emperor of Han even
married his princess to Hun
341
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,196
You certainly won't grudge two
women from among the people
342
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:05,918
You don't know
343
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,236
The elder Qiao is widow of General
Sun Ce and the younger is
344
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:17,639
The younger Qiao is our
chief commander's wife
345
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,517
Indeed I didn't know that
346
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:26,756
It's a slip of tongue
a deadly fault
347
00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:37,319
Chief commander
348
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,759
I swear one of us two has to die
either the old rebel or I
349
00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:49,075
It's really annoying
But it needs a lot of thought
350
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:07,596
I hold a sacred trust
from my late Lord Sun Ce
351
00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,037
And I shoulder a heavy
responsibility for state affairs
352
00:37:11,720 --> 00:37:13,439
How can I submit to Cao Cao?
353
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:19,440
What I said just now was
to see how you stand
354
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:26,675
I left lake Poyang with the
intention of attacking Cao Cao
355
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:31,117
Nothing can change my decision
even the sword or the axe
356
00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:40,200
I hope you'll help me and we'll
smash Cao Cao's army together
357
00:37:40,720 --> 00:37:44,316
If you value me
358
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:47,119
I would be at your
service at any time
359
00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:51,715
Well
360
00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:57,598
I'm going go see my lord
tomorrow to discuss the matter
361
00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:39,678
My dear
362
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,837
I've heard what Master
Zhuge Liang said just now
363
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,679
Though old rebel Cao Cao's going to
attack, not for us two sisters
364
00:38:49,720 --> 00:38:50,836
Once the south of the
River is occupied
365
00:38:51,720 --> 00:38:55,555
Our children and myself will
fall into the rebel's hands
366
00:38:57,120 --> 00:39:01,558
Don't worry, I'll advise the lord
to fight against Cao Cao
367
00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:08,594
Have the children gone to bed?
368
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:23,955
Yes
369
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:28,075
As a senior general
how you so immersed in love?
370
00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:46,238
As a true man
how can I have no human feelings?
371
00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:52,754
I'm dignified when giving orders
and I'm peerless in bravery
372
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:57,277
If I can repay the sacred
trust from the lord
373
00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:00,838
Giving honor to wife and children
my life desires shall be fulfilled
374
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:11,314
I've high respect for your talents
375
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:16,037
Hope you'll obtain high merits
and great achievements
376
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:19,597
Our children and I will
be also greatly honored
377
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:29,356
With his outstanding
ability and wisdom
378
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:31,314
Zhuge Liang skillfully changed
the original meaning
379
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,878
of "the Two Qiao's" in the poem
"Ode to the Bronze Bird Pavilion"
380
00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:37,438
to ally Liu Bei with Wu against Cao
Cao, he irritated Zhou Yu
381
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:41,118
which caused Zhou Yu to reveal his
in tention to fight out with Cao Cao
