- 1. Introduction -
-------------------
This is a unique game comparing to Koei's other Romance of the Three Kingdoms
games. This game features its own separate Three Kingdoms story with a huge
drama behind it. Half the game is spent in combat and the other half is
probably viewing the drama behind either of the two forces.
The land is facing an age of turmoil as local rulers fight for control as the
Han Dynasty is on its way to collapse.
There are two main forces in this game. Liu Bei and Cao Cao. Cao Cao with the
Mandate of Heaven on his side desires to bring the land under his control.
Liu Bei desires peace and to rescue his lover Diao Chan who has been kidnapped
by Cao Cao for she alone knows where the Imperial Seal is.
(Note: Diao Chan was not Liu Bei's lover in real history.)
You can only play as Liu Bei or Cao Cao and in order to play as Cao Cao you
must first complete the game with Liu Bei.

The flow of game play is as follows:
Power Status- The military situation is explained on the map screen.
\/
Political Policy- You will get a choice as to how you will better your army.
\/
Drama- The drama or how the story is progressing.
\/
War Council- Your officers will present to you a few attack strategies.
\/
Battle- The combat sequence.
\/
Postwar- If you win, you get a little victory scene, if you lose, you have to
retry.
This is how the game flows starting after the beginning battle.
I will start by explaining the beginning scene. It's basically the same scene
for Liu Bei and Cao Cao.
It is explained that the Han Dynasty is nearing its end and turmoil has begun
throughout the land. The young Han emperor has entrusted the Imperial Seal to
Diao Chan. A battle is taking place in the Xu Province. The Lord of the
Xu Province, Liu Bei, is fighting a battle and Diao Chan is caught in the
middle of it. Soon after Cao Cao appears as reinforcements for Liu Bei. After
the battle, Liu Bei throws a banquet in honor of his new friend, Cao Cao. After
Diao Chan witnesses Cao Cao's oracle led by Himiko, she is kidnapped. A battle
ensues to protect Diao Chan. Mei Mei, Zhang Fei's first daughter, grabs
Diao Chan, but is killed by a soldier. Liu Bei tries to run after Diao Chan,
but there is a big fire and Guan Yu and Mei Sanniang restrict him. A new war
has begun.
Liu Bei- I will start with Liu Bei's walkthrough.
Battle of Xu
Xiahou Yuan is leading an attack against Xu.
Liu Bei ponders about why Cao Cao attacked and wonders what should be done. His
officers tell him he should attack Cao Cao. Guan Yu then stands him before his
people and they announce their support for him. Liu Bei then declares war on
Cao Cao.
Mei Sanniang leads you through a battle tutorial against Xiahou Yuan and you
will begin to defend Xu. (See next section for Combat tactics) Later during the
battle Zhao Yun will appear to help you.
After the battle Guan Yu shows you the experience you gained after the battle.
He also presents Guan Ping to you, who has joined you.
Now begins a scene where Liu Bei is talking to Diao Chan through a crystal.
Diao Chan says she thinks she is being held in the capital, Xu Chang.
Battle of Ru Nan
Power Status- Cao Cao is being distracted by Yuan Shao from the north. Liu Bei
uses this as an oppurtunity to attack.
Political Policy- After Liu Bei is done staring at Mei Sanniang's chest, you
will get three options to enhance your army. Guan Yu proposes that you train
your troops. Zhang Fei requests that he goes to kill a man-eating tiger.
(This raises fame.) Mei Sanniang thinks you should recruit more troops. You
can only choose one. Choose whichever suits you. I suggest you train your
troops.
Drama- Guan Yu mentions Liu Bei having royal blood and asks why he is so in
love with a commoner as Diao Chan. Mei Sanniang is confused and Zhao Yun
explains that Liu Bei is the only living relative of the emperor and he would
inherit the throne if something happened. Cao Cao is trying to take advantage
of that by making himself emperor. The attack Liu Bei leads is anticipated by
Cao Cao.
War Council- Xun Yu is the enemy commander. You have two options. The enemy
army is split. Zhang Fei suggests you use him to go and distract Li Dian and
Guo Jia, while Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhao Yun attack Xun Yu and Yue Jin.
Zhao Yun proposes that you use him to distract Li Dian and Guo Jia. Choose
either one and continue with the battle. I suggest you go with Zhao Yun.
Battle- See the combat section for tips on warfare. During the battle Zhou Cang
will come to aid you.
Postwar- You get a victory scene and Guan Yu tells you of the spoils of war.
Liu Bei again speaks with Diao Chan. Diao Chan says she is safe and tells
Liu Bei not to risk his life because the Mandate of Heaven cannot be defyed.
Battle of Bo Wan Po
Power Status-
While Liu Bei was away, Cao Cao marched on his castle and captured Xu. With no
where to return, Liu Bei borrows Xin Ye from Liu Biao.
Political Policy-
Guan Yu thinks you should assist in land development. Zhang Fei thinks you
should train troops. Zhao Yun suggests you recruit more troops. I suggest you
train troops.
Drama-
Liu Bei is in need of a warlord and seeks out Zhuge Liang for the third time.
Zhuge Liang has all sorts of trinkets in his cave. Zhao Yun and Mei Sanniang
tell him of the situation and he says that it is a hopeless battle as Heaven
has chosen Cao Cao. Liu Bei then gets upset and says that all he cares about is
rescuing Diao Chan. Zhuge Liang then teleports in front of Liu Bei and accepts.
War Council-
Cao Ren is leading the attack. With him are Li Dian, Xiahou Dun, and Yue Jin.
All the strategies are Zhuge Liang's. Zhuge Liang presents a plan to set a trap
with a rockslide against Li Dian on the northern path, using Liu Bei as a
decoy. Zhao Yun says to dig a pit against Yue Jin in the center path, using
Liu Bei as a decoy. Guan Yu suggests to use an exploding mine against Yue Jin
on the southern path, using Liu Bei as a decoy. I suggest you use Guan Yu's
proposal.
Battle-
At the beginning of the battle, Zhang Fei will disobey the warlord's orders and
charge at Cao Ren. He meets up with Xiahou Yuan and kills him. But now
Zhang Fei is surrounded by the enemy. Later on, Zhao Yun will realize that
Liu Bei has no concern for restoring the Han empire and all he wants is to
rescue Diao Chan.
Postwar-
Liu Bei will scold Zhang Fei for disobeying orders. Zhang Fei apologizes and
says he just can't trust Zhuge Liang.
Zhuge Liang presents the rewards of the battle.
Liu Bei again speaks with Diao Chan. She says that the oracle said that the
woman of destiny wil bring ruin to Liu Bei and she fears that the woman of
destiny is her. The oracle also said that Cao Cao will conquer the whole world.
Battle of Chang Ban Po
Power Status-
Cao Cao is preparing to march on the Jing Province. Liu Bei is heading for
Xia Kou.
Political Policy-
Zhuge Liang thinks you should intercept the enemy supplies. Guan Yu proposes
you let him kill a man-eating tiger. Zhang Fei suggests he trains the troops. I
suggest you intercept the enemy supplies.
Drama-
Liu Bei says Zhao Yun has left and he is not surprised since Zhao Yun serves
the empire. Zhang Fei then reports that Zhuge Liang and Mei Sanniang have also
left. Liu Bei begins to laugh and suggests that Guan Yu and Zhang Fei leave as
well. They hit him and begin to cry telling him to remember the oath they made
in the peach garden. They tell Liu Bei that nothing will ever make them desert
him and they'll stick by him till the end.
War Council-
To win this battle Liu Bei has to make it to the circle at the bottom of the
map. Zhang Fei thinks you should escape over the western bridge which he will
keep open. Guan Yu says you should escape down the center, but work quickly due
to the enemy cavalry. Li Li says she'll plant mines in the eastern forest and
hold off the enemy while you escape. I think you should use Li Li's plan.
Battle-
Eventually you will see Zhuge Liang appear and attack Cao Cao. He knocks his
helmet off, but Himiko chases him away. Later Zhuge Liang presents the helmet
to Liu Bei to prove his loyalty. Now Zhuge Liang has rejoined you. Mei Sanniang
will also eventually appear and take out a chunk of the enemy army. Liu Bei and
Cao Cao will also have a duel. Cao Cao wins, but spares Liu Bei's life and then
rides off.
This battle can be kind of tricky since you have so few troops, while Cao Cao
has many. Have Liu Bei head down towards the bottom and leave Guan Yu,
Zhang Fei, and Li Li to deal with Cao Cao's troops. When Zhuge Liang and
Mei Sanniang appear have them follow Liu Bei. When you get to the bottom,
Himiko will be waiting for you. You'll have to beat her to get through. Have
Zhuge Liang help to beat her quickly.
Postwar-
At the end, Sun Quan will be waiting for you. Zhuge Liang shows the results and
presents Pang Tong and Huang Zhong.
Diao Chan is crying. She says Cao Cao keeps getting stronger no matter how many
battles Liu Bei wins. Liu Bei argues against the fact that Cao Cao has the
Mandate of Heaven. Diao Chan then tells Liu Bei that Cao Cao is heading down
the Chang Jiang River.
Showdown at Chi Bi
Power Status-
Liu Bei has allied with Sun Quan against Cao Cao. Cao Cao prepares his forces
for the greatest naval battle in history.
Political Policy-
Zhuge Liang suggests you implicate Cai Mao in treachery causing him to flee
Cao Cao and join you. Zhou Yu proposes that the allied troops train. You should
recruit Cai Mao. It will help.
Drama-
Xi Xuanfeng tells Cao Cao he has nothing to fear and he shows his confidence by
declaring heaven is on his side. Sun Li yells at Liu Bei for dragging Sun Quan
into this alliance. She says that fire will not work without wind. Liu Bei then
tells her and Zhang Fei that Zhuge Liang will come through.
War Council-
You can only do one thing. Have Zhuge Liang set fire to enemy ships.
Liu Bei will defy Cao Cao and the Mandate of Heaven.
Battle-
Zhuge Liang will begin his prayer for the wind. Zhou Yu asks Sun Quan how the
fire attack will succeed since Chi Bi hasn't had any high winds. Sun Quan
reassures them and has confidence in Liu Bei. Sun Li leaves Sun Quan on a
little boat to join Liu Bei. She tells a soldier to thank her brother for
everything. Liu Bei will face and attack the Mandate of Heaven and Zhuge Liang
will bring the wind. He will then set fire to Cao Cao's fleet.
This battle will seem tough at first, but after the fire attack it will get
easier.
Postwar-
Zhuge Liang will show you the experience earned and will then present Ma Su to
you.
Diao Chan will congratulate Liu Bei and tell him she is not afraid of the
Mandate of Heaven anymore. Then she feels an earthquake. There is an earthquake
in Xu Chang. Two men are speaking of Liu Bei and Zhao Yun hears them. By the
way, behind Zhao Yun you will see Gan Ning from Dynasty Warriors 4.
Siege of Cheng Du
Power Status-
Liu Bei and Sun Quan score a huge victory at Chi Bi and Cao Cao is forced to
return to Xu Chang. Liu Bei now has the southern half of the Jing Province
under his control.
Political Policy-
Pang Tong proposes that you let the troops cultivate the land. Mei Sanniang
thinks you should recruit troops. And Zhang Fei asks that you train the troops.
I think you should recruit troops. Huang Yue Ying will present the Hawk Troops
and attach them to Guan Yu's unit.
(Note: Huang Yue Ying is Zhuge Liang's wife.)
Drama-
Liu Bei goes to see Liu Zhang at Cheng Du. He does not seek to wage war and
neither does Liu Zhang, but he cannot break his alliance with Cao Cao. He says
he pities Cao Cao. He knew him since he was a boy and he used to be a sweet
child, but war has changed him.
War Council-
To win, Liu Zhang must be defeated. To lose, Liu Bei must be defeated. Guan Yu
thinks you should concentrate an attack on the east gate. Pang Tong thinks you
should go around to the far gates. Me Sanniang thinks you should concentrate an
attack on the north gate. I suggest you follow Mei Sanniang's plan.
Battle-
When Guan Yu reaches his position he will launch the Hawk Troops. Ma Chao will
eventually come join you.
Postwar-
Zhuge Liang will show you the results and presents Fa Zheng to you.
Diao Chan is upset at Liu Bei for attacking Liu Zhang. She fears he has been
seduced by conquest like Cao Cao. Liu Bei then assures her that he has no
desire to rule the land. She apologizes and says Cao Cao isn't as merciless as
you think. She thinks there is a way to get him to stop fighting and then says
you don't understand.
Power Status-
Liu Bei has defeated Liu Zhang and taken the Yi Province. Cao Cao is now ready
to launch an attack. He sends Xiahou Ba to Han Zhong and Cao Ren to Fan Zheng.
The Nanman are also starting an uprising south of Yi.
These three attacks occur simultaneously and you will have to choose one to
take part in.
Battle at Mt. Dinjun
Political Policy-
Sun Li asks to allow Ma Chao to train. Fa Zheng suggests you request that
Sun Quan leads an attack against Cao Cao. And Zhang Fei asks to train the
troops. I suggest you request help from Wu. This causes Cao Cao's forces to
have to split up making this battle easier.
Drama-
Li Li and Luo Luo are entertaining everyone by dancing. Zhang Fei starts to
remember and miss Mei Mei. Zhang Fei then starts dancing behind his daughters.
Liu Bei then remembers that if it were not for Mei Mei he would not be alive
today.
War Council-
You have to destroy the enemy storehouse or defeat Xun Yu to win. If yours is
destroyed or Liu Bei is defeated you will lose.Zhang Fei proposes that Liu Bei
guards the storehouse and the rest of the armycharges at the enemy storehouse.
Fa Zheng thinks Liu Bei should guard the storehouse and the army splits up and
attacks from different locations. Sun Li thinks you should plant a trap leaving
Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang guarding the storehouse. The rest of the army then
attacks the storehouse. I find Sun Li's strategy to work well.
Battle-
At the beginning of the battle Li Li and Luo Luo will be captured. If you
requested help from Sun Quan, Xun Yu will split Zhang He and Xu Huang's army
substantially. Xiahou Ba and Sima Yi might appear in the southwestern corner of
the map. This is a good reason to use Sun Li's plan.
Postwar-
Zhuge Liang will present the results of the war.
Cao Cao will be with Diao Chan. Li Li will run in and say Cao Cao has removed
the Han emperor and styled himself emperor of Wei. She also said that all sorts
of natural disasters are happening and Liu Bei is said to be the cause of them.
Battle of Fan Zheng
Political Policy-
Huang Yue Ying will ask you to use her new weapon. Zhuge Liang will then ask her
to stop with the "Yeah". Of course she doesn't, but she says she'll try to stop
embarrassing him. Guan Yu thinks you should have Sun Li train. Pang Tong thinks
you should spread rumors among the enemy. I think you should use
Huang Yue Ying's idea.
Drama-
Zhuge Liang cannot read the future from the stars. He points out a bright star
and says that is your light of hope. It used to be a feint star, but now it
shines bright. Luo Luo then says that Pang De is approaching and is threatening
to take Liu Bei and Guan Yu's head.
War Council-
To win Cao Ren must be defeated and if Liu Bei loses so do you. Guan Yu thinks
you should let him taunt the enemy out. Pang Tong thinks you should set up a
fake supply compound. And Li Li thinks you should have your troops search for
the enemy supply troops. I think you should use Guan Yu's plan.
Battle-
Pang De and Yu Jin will eventually come and this will raise enemy morale. If
Guan Yu engages Pang De they will have a duel. Guan Yu will win.
Postwar-
Zhuge Liang will present the results of the battle and then he will present
Wei Yan to you.
Cao Cao will be with Diao Chan. Li Li will run in and say Cao Cao has removed
the Han emperor and styled himself emperor of Wei. She also said that all sorts
of natural disasters are happening and Liu Bei is said to be the cause of them.
Southern Campaign-
Political Policy-
Huang Yue Ying will suggest you deploy her new weapon. Mei Sanniang will
propose that you recruit more troops. Ma Chao will suggest you hire a local
guide. This battle is not that hard so you really don't need Yue Ying's weapon
so I suggest you recruit troops.
Drama-
Mei Sanniang asks Meng Huo why he started a rebellion. She gets in his face as
he says that Liu Bei's one to talk and he looks at Mei Sanniang's chest. She
slaps him and Zhuge Liang decides to let him go. Meng Huo returns home and
Zhu Rong yells at him. She then wonders why he was released and orders two
soldiers to get King Mulu and King Duosi ready for an attack. Liu Bei asks
Zhuge Liang why he let Meng Huo go and he replies that he wants to allow him to
have a change of heart.
War Council-
You will have to defeat King Mulu, King Duosi, and Wu Tugu for Meng Huo to
appear. Then defeat Meng Huo to win and if Liu Bei is defeated, you lose.
Ma Chao proposes that you dig pits to ambush the enemy. Mei Sanniang thinks you
should destroy the bridges and attack down the middle.
Battle-
After the three lose Meng Huo and Zhu Rong will appear. Meng Huo will initiate
a dance and when he is through Zhu Rong will hit him with a fan.
Postwar-
Meng Huo begs for forgiveness and Zhu Rong crawls all over Liu Bei wanting to
go with him. She tells Meng Huo to stay here. Zhu Rong is now with you.
Zhuge Liang will present the spoils of war.
Cao Cao will be with Diao Chan. Li Li will run in and say Cao Cao has removed
the Han emperor and styled himself emperor of Wei. She also said that all sorts
of natural disasters are happening and Liu Bei is said to be the cause of them.
Battle of Tian Shui
Power Status-
Liu Bei has subdued the enemies on all three fronts. Now that he has a large
kingdom people refer to it as Shu. Cao Cao has removed the Han emperor and
created a new empire called Wei. But the land is still in chaos.
Political Policy-
Huang Yue Ying asks if she can research new weapons. Mei Sanniang wants to
train the troops. Pang Tong wants to send out decoys. I think you should train
your troops.
Drama-
Liu Bei is pondering over what is causing the natural disasters. His and
Cao Cao's army meet. Cao Cao mentions Liu Bei is to blame for the natural
disasters and his army begins a chant against him. Zhao Yun then appears and
restores Liu Bei's confidence. He brings with him Jiang Wei and an army.
Zhao Yun jumps off the cliff and realizes that he who is loved by the people
should rule them. Cao Cao then orders Himiko to attack. She sends a fireball at
the Shu army and Zhuge Liang defends it. Liu Bei then has his army retreat.
War Council-
Zhao Yun proposes that you position the horsemen in wings. Fa Zheng suggests
you position the horsemen on the left wing. Pang Tong requests you position
bowmen in the center. I think you should use Zhao Yun's strategy.
Battle-
Liu Bei acknowledges his path to bring peace to the land. Eventually Jiang Wei
will bring his reinforcements. Liu Bei will remember when he first met
Diao Chan.
Postwar-
Zhuge Liang will present your experience from the battle.
Diao Chan will smile and then laugh. She then turns into Himiko and destroys
the crystal.
Power Status-
Liu Bei won a victory at Tian Shui causing Cao Cao to return to Xu Chang. As
Liu Bei prepares to take Chang An, Cao Cao sends Sima Yi to Chen Cang and
Zhang Liao to Wei Xing. He also convinces Cai Wengi of the Xi Province to
attack Liu Bei. Once again you have to choose which battle you will take part
in.
Race at Wei Xing
Political Policy-
Pang Tong suggests you persuade Xu Shu to join you. Guan Yu wants to recruit
troops. Jiang Wei wants to feed the enemy false information. I suggest you
persuade Xu Shu.
Drama-
Li Li and Luo Luo will be cutting down trees so the army can advance. Then
Xi Xuanfeng and Dong Xuanfeng will attack. Liu Bei's officers will fight them
away. Zhao Yun then runs up and says that a messenger from the capital says
that Diao Chan is dead. Liu Bei refuses to believe it.
War Council-
To win Liu Bei must make it to the northern path and if he is defeated you
lose. Guan Yu thinks you should lead the enemy to the east outpost. Zhao Yun
thinks you should lead the enemy to the west outpost. Pang Tong thinks you
should force the enemy to retreat. I think you should use Pang Tong's strategy.
Battle-
If you chose to recruit Xu Shu he will appear and join you. Eventually Pang De
will show up.
Postwar-
Zhuge Liang will present the victory results.
Defense of Chen Cang
Political Policy-
Zhao Yun will propose that you enlist Yan Yan. Zhang Fei wants to recruit
troops. Mei Sanniang wants to train the troops. I think you should enlist
Yan Yan. Huang Yue Ying has made a Gargantuan unit and attached it to
Zhao Yun.
Drama-
Zhang Fei is drunk. Mei Sanniang walks up and Zhang Fei asks her if she still
has a thing for Liu Bei. He will then ask her about Guan Yu. She says he is
afraid of frogs and Zhang Fei will tell a story about how he threw a frog in
Guan Yu's face. Everyone laughs and Li Li runs up and says a messenger from the
capital said that Diao Chan is dead.
War Council-
To win, you must defeat Sima Yi. To lose, Liu Bei must be defeated. Zhuge Liang
requests that you allow him to give the appearance of a larger army at the north
gate. Jiang Wei wants to disguise himself as Zhao Yun. I think Zhuge Liang's
strategy is best.
Battle-
If you are using Zhuge Liang's strategy he will shout a warcry at the north
gate. When Zhao Yun reaches a gate he will destroy it with Gargantua. Sima Yi
does not like this.
Postwar-
Zhuge Liang will show you the experience earned.
Campaign against Xi
Political Policy-
Sun Li wants to purchase supplies. Zhao Yun requests that you recruit troops.
Fa Zheng thinks you should interfere with the enemy supply line. I think
Fa Zheng's plan would be best.
Drama-
Cai Wengi is performing magic and then threatens Liu Bei. Sun Li talks to
Liu Bei and then tries to kiss him. He backs off and Li Li runs up. She says
that a messenger from the capital said that Diao Chan is dead.
War Council-
If Cai Wengi loses you will win. If Liu Bei flees you will lose. Zhuge Liang
thinks he should cast mirages on Ma Dai and Deng Ai. Ma Chao wants to get
Ma Dai to join you. Do Ma Chao's plan.
Battle-
There are three Cai Wengis. They are all fake. Defeat them for the real one to
show up.
If you are going to subvert Ma Dai, Ma Chao will begin with that. After all
three Cai Wengis are defeated, the real one shows up from the east side.
Postwar-
Zhuge Liang will show you the victory results and Cai Wengi will join you.
Battle of Wu Chang
Power Status-
Liu Bei conquers Xi and as a result, Chang An collapses. Liu Bei now rules the
western half of the country. Cao Cao convinces Sun Quan to attack Liu Bei.
Political Policy-
Pang Tong requests to have Huang Yue Ying to research new weapons. Sun Li
proposes that you train the troops. Zhao Yun wants to kill a man-eating tiger.
I suggest you research new weapons.
Drama-
Liu Bei is humming the song that you hear through most of the game and thinks
about Diao Chan. He can feel she is still alive. Zhuge Liang looks at the stars
and sees betrayal in the south. Sun Quan is attacking Liu Bei in fear that he
will one day attack Wu. Guan Yu is fighting fiercely and Liu Bei is rushing to
save him. He asks why Sun Li is coming and she says she chooses him not her
brother.
War Council-
There is no war council, but defeat Sun Quan to win and keep Liu Bei around.
Battle-
Liu Bei will be set to advance, but keep him positioned there.
During the battle Zhang Fei, Sun Li, Zhao Yun, Zhou Yu, Zhuge Liang, Sun Quan,
Mei Sanniang, and Ma Chao will show up.
I think you should command Liu Bei to stay put and try and have Guan Yu turn
around too, but he probably won't make it. When your reinforcements start to
show up then start to attack Sun Quan's force.
D e s p e r a d o's strategy:
1. Just let Guan Yu die, and run away to the north.
2. Wait until Zhou Yu and Sun Quan (your reinforcement should've arrived).
3. Send 2/3 units to the right. Be sure to stay as close as possible to the
northern wall/cliff.
4. After reaching the north-east part of the screen, tell those units to head
south and finish off Sun Quan. Be careful, Zhou Yu is there too.
Postwar-
Sun Li will be upset with Sun Quan. He says he attacked for fear that Liu Bei
now seeks war. Liu Bei says it never occurred to him to attack Wu and he would
like Sun Quan to continue his rule there.
Zhuge Liang will present your victory results.
Wei-Shu Conflict
Power Status-
Sun Quan surrenders Wu to Liu Bei. Cao Cao abandons Luo Yang to strengthen his
forces at Xu Chang for the coming battle.
Political Policy-
Zhuge Liang thinks you should make a speech to raise the troops morale. Guan Yu
wants to recruit troops. Pang Tong requests that you form an elite guard. I
suggest you make the speech. Huang Yue Ying has made an Arbalest and attaches
it to Zhuge Liang.
Drama-
Himiko visits Zhuge Liang. She says that Cao Cao will win, she has foreseen it.
Zhuge Liang says that Liu Bei's strong will will overcome the
Mandate of Heaven. Himiko tells him to have Liu Bei at the battlefield
tomorrow. Diao Chan will be there.
War Council-
To win you must defeat Cao Cao. If Liu Bei is scattered, you will lose. All
your officers have agreed on the formation for the final battle.
Battle-
Himiko has set an unbalance between Heaven and Earth which can destroy everyone
and Zhuge Liang will put a stop to it. Himiko will perform magic against your
troops. When Zhuge Liang meets up with an enemy he will use the Arbalest.
Himiko will be using her magic and Zhuge Liang will interrupt. He fires at her,
but she blocks it. She then begins to form a giant magic ball and Zhuge Liang
fires at her, sending her flying and exploding.
Postwar-
Liu Bei is reunited with Diao Chan. He sort of apologizes for taking so long
and she says it is partly her fault for she knows where the Imperial Seal is.
Then she pulls out a hairpin and mentions that she found Cao Cao after the
battle. Cao Cao gives Diao Chan his mother's hairpin. He was torn from his
