The acting is incredible. Cao Cao crafty with the "Reinforcement ++"😶

great

I start watching the latest Three Kingdoms and it's so gud! I thought Cao Cao was cunning when he deployed a plan to divide Liu Bei and Lu Bu. What I didn't expected was seeing the boy emperor using a scheme to divided Cao Cao and Liu Bei. He secretly accused Cao Cao of being a tyrant while he was living in luxury under Cao Cao protection. His blood written edict pretty much guaranteed a long and bloody civil war. We need to remember how the boy emperor was abandoned and starving. Nobody come to his rescue except Cao Cao. His selfish action just prolong the civil war. Same goes for Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu. They all died trying to revive a corrupted Dynasty where super intelligent men kowtow to a child emperor. I'm at the scene with the 3 visits at the Sleeping dragon ridge. I realize both men was using each other's for their own goals. "Zhuge Liang created his own lord" Xu Shu previously explained to Liu Bei. To me, Zhuge Liang was the devil who invented divided and conquered. Liu Bei on the other hand knew about the rampage corruption of the Han. He should let it die and be reborn. Nope, he always complained about war and unrest while provoking Cao Cao instead of working together for a better future. There was this line I didn't really understand when I young. It's where a villager would shout "A dead Kongming have scared away Sima Yi!" Now I realize it's was a face saving propaganda, similar to western medias keep saying Ukraine is winning while ignoring the enormous casualties from the last Kherson and Kharkov offensives on September 18, 2022. Similar to Zhuge Liang disastrous Northern campaigns, they got absolutely nothing except deaths. The biggest lost was Wei Yan. Special note: I read about the 3 visits, it was fictional. It was actually Zhuge Liang who visited Liu Bei for a job. And he want the highest paying job. Cao Cao already have Xun Yu, Guo Jia and Sima Yi as his strategists. Sun Quan have Zhou Yu and Lu Su. Worthy mention. It was Xun Yu's suggestion that Cao Cao chose to escort Emperor Xian, who was then living in the ruins of Luoyang, to his own base at Xu (present-day Xuchang, Henan) in 196, taking on the role of protecting the emperor. Xun Yu's plan was to "control the insubordinate in the name of the emperor" (奉天子以令不臣); the 14th-century historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms subtly distorts this to "hold the emperor hostage to control the nobles" (挾天子以令諸侯). In the long run, this strategy would give Cao Cao a considerable political advantage over his rivals, allowing him to legitimise his actions by taking them in the name of the emperor. Guo's advice to Cao Cao on how to handle Liu Bei. Guo Jia told Cao Cao, "Liu Bei has great ambitions and has won the hearts of many people. Zhang Fei and Guan Yu are formidable fighters and they have pledged to serve him with their lives. From what I observe, Liu Bei will never truly submit to anyone, and his intentions are unclear. The people in the past once said, 'If you let the enemy off today, they will become a threat to you for a long time.' You should settle (Liu Bei) soon." At the time, Cao Cao was using Emperor Xian as a figurehead to command respect and had attracted many heroes to serve under him so he did not heed Guo Jia's advice. When Cao Cao later sent Liu Bei with an army to attack Yuan Shu, Guo Jia and Cheng Yu warned Cao, "Liu Bei will rebel if you let him go!" By then, Liu Bei had already left and he really did rebel against Cao Cao as he later seized control of Xu Province from Che Zhou, the provincial governor appointed by Cao Cao. Cao Cao regretted not following Guo Jia's advice. -Fu Zi Update I'm at the scene where Liu Biao is dead and Cai Mao with a large army surrendered to Cao Cao. The show mentioned subtlety where Zhuge Liang using scorched earth to burn every resident buildings, this forced civilians to fled with Liu Bei. In other word, they're being used a human shield. It remind me a lot about Ukraine and Zelensky. Liu Bei was like Zelensky to western medias. They need a hero to run their propaganda against the communist. Anyway.. The smartest person currently is Cai Mao. He won a battle without having to lost a single soldiers. He even got a promotion. Liu Bei should be like Cai Mao. My favorite part. E 35 part 3 of 3 at 00:11:47 Liu Biao son, Liu Cong surrender Jing province to Cao Cao. My second favorite part. Cao Cao using a scheme to recruit Guan Yu while he was in a life and death situation was the most interesting. Sun Quan try to recruit Guan Yu, but they end up beheading him after he refused lol ✌️

BEST TV SHOW FROM MAINLAND CHINA EVER

Always have the high ground, and the sun at your back.

Anyone know music at the start?

The trolling power of Cao Cao is strong, he is literally making Yuan Shao a goddamn puppet and Yuan Shao doesn't even know it.

16:15 Yep. That's our legendary general

6:12 15:32

或可避邪驅姦險，腎有問題汝族替，人生自古誰無死，要死汝替我去死，OK 的啦！

Someone once told me this was all a ploy to get the sun into position behind the army.

I love how Cao Cao still could’ve tricked Yuan Shao into leaving him with a province even though he could decimate Cao Cao’s army right now. Yuan Shao is indecisive even when he holds a massive advantage.

If Yuan Shao listened to advice. He could've avoided defeat all together. Has a force 700,000 but he puts into full force and not split his army into contingents. For example his army may be of great numbers, but no substance. But everytime Cao Cao goes to war his army is smaller than his opponents and has been trained vigorously. Along side he could've destroyed Cao Cao when he was still weak, his province of Yan, he could've helped Liu Bei destroy Cao Cai then ask Liu Bei for alliance and peace negotiations due to it was Liu Bei who asked for aid along side Yuan Shao should dictate terms "I came to help you? But what do I get?"

Guo Tu: "It's bigbrain time."

Literally just 2 men talking for 15 minutes but what a scene!

Cao cao reminds of Jack Sparrow for some reason

14:49 unfortunate for yuan shao or anyone to have advisors like this lol

Cao cao reminds me of Zhou Fan, demon emperor.. there's no end to how cunning he is..

Trận Quan Độ, Tào Tháo đấu Viên Thiệu

Cao Cao: I'd rather cheat on a man than let him cheat on me

The fight scenes in this show are TERRIBLE, but this scene as a whole is so awesome. Cao cao is so damn good.

"Is he not enough?" HAHA

How to troll an enemy - Cao Cao.

Not many people mention how cao cao tricks yuan shao into thanking the emperor for the gifts. He puts him in a position where yuan shao has to acknowledge the emperor and thus also cao cao.

Cao Cao trollin since 200CE 😂😂😂

Cao Cao, as the sun is moving into position: "I'm about to end this man's whole career."

"Hehehe" -Cao Cao

Anyone have the movie's link?

Cao Cao is GOATed. It's funny, as a kid starting off with DW4, I was a fan of Shu/Liu Bei because I felt he was the "good guy." I hated Cao Cao. As an adult with more historicalknowledge, I respect Cao Cao more. He simply wanted peace in the most efficient way possible and was a very capable leader in peacetime as well.

Funny how the Dynasty Warriors games always has this battle at night.

Doom he says lol

cannot help you there--use Google for that. LoL

You reminded me I never got around to checking this series out. Let's roll kzbin.info/aero/PL33A390995E9A7F00

great acting, at 5:10, when yuan shao looks away cao cao looked at him in concern as if he is checking for the sun

I give the translation a 9/10. However, attacking instead of negotiating would not be called "stealth." I'd rather use the word "artifice" or "duplicity"

I feel bad for the emperor,he's being used by big name like a doll and not having a total control of his kingdom I can't believe how much he suffering

From "Total War: THREE KINGDOMS - Fates Divided Announcement Trailer"

I didn't know cao cao is a bad guy. Rise of kingdoms player

amazing how one actor played 200 roles in this scene

Imagine instead of having conversations you could just trample caocao, sometimes you just go no brain and the resort could be surprising

13:05

Actually, Yuan shao was the strongest rival of Cao cao

I’ve been playing dynasty warriors since 2002. I absolutely love this whole story so I’m excited I found a live action portrayal.

Honestly if I were Yuan Shao, I'd have ordered my archers to volley fire at Cao Cao's ass when he was out alone in the middle of the field.

Uncle entering my room when nobody is home like 16:11

When only you and your best friend get the joke 16:09

Yuan Shao is a stupid leader with 700k armies lol.

16:18 when your mom gets you an ice-cream lol.

This had such intensity for 16 minutes in which nothing happened

Best Scene in the whole 95 episode show - but many contenders - Cao Cao just gained his raider calvary, tactical advantage (sun in their face), confused the masses, and threw Yuan Shao off his game (humiliating him in the aftermath and making him act with emotion instead of a cool calm Sima Yi or Sleeping Dragon). We can all learn a thing or two from Cao Cao when it comes to life...
