Romance of the Three Kingdoms - New Edition

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Huan Ling was in a coma, the eunuchs and relatives were disrupting the government, imposing heavy taxes and oppressing the people, the Yellow Turban War swept across Kyushu, and the century-old Han family's foundation was on the verge of collapse. Liu Bei, a descendant of the Han Dynasty who weaved mats and sold shoes, Cao Cao, a powerful man from Qiao County, and Sun Quan, who took charge of Jiangdong at a young age, gathered heroes in the troubled times to compete in the Central Plains. This book is based on the historical facts of "Three Kingdoms" and appropriately draws on the classic passages of the classic "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and reshapes and polishes them. It does away with the preconceptions of good and evil, and does not deliberately deify counselors or exaggerate fighting generals. It not only retains the famous scenes such as the intersection of Taoyuan, the beacon at Red Cliff, and the death of Wu Zhang Yuan, but also completes the true background of the game between the nobles and clans in the court, the displacement of the people in troubled times, and the balance between the kings and ministers of all parties. From the rise of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, to the endless conquests of the Three Thirds, to the Gaoping Mausoleum Incident, and the Three Thirds' return to the Jin Dynasty, it describes Cao Cao's heroism and ambition to calm the people, Liu Bei's tenacity and imperial palace, Zhuge Liang's statecraft and helplessness in the Northern Expedition, Zhou Yu's broadmindedness, Guan Yu's arrogance, and Sima's strategy of forbearing to seize the world. Even if a hero has great ambitions, he will eventually be unable to withstand the general trend of the times. In troubled times, there is no pure good or evil in the struggle for balance, leaving only broken mountains and rivers and ups and downs of the people. One volume describes the rise and fall of the last hundred years of the Han Dynasty, the fate of heroes and the reincarnation of dynasties.
