Yuan Xu traveled through time and became Yuan Wei's nephew. He offered advice under Zhu Jun's tent and refused to surrender the Yellow Turbans. He advocated "encircling three towers and one tower" to completely annihilate the enemy. He had a keen eye and took the future Shu Han veteran Huang Zhong under his command. On the battlefield, Huang Zhong killed Qu Shuai, Sun Zhong and Han Zhong, but this caused friction with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Yuan Xu weighed the pros and cons, temporarily suppressed the idea of killing Liu Bei, and divided his forces to pursue the remaining enemies.
