Wei


Recruiting Jia Xu [ Video here ]

Jia Xu: Hm. Superb, superb. Execute my orders immediately after my command -now standby!

Soldier: Yes, sir! Go!

Cao Cao: What is it, Guo Jia? What is it your eyes see of that man?

Guo Jia: Nothing yet really. Even though he could spring a surprise attack on us, he hasn't limited his skill in seizing castles.

Xiahou Dun: It's because of that man's cowardly hand that Dian Wei died. Why do you want that man's power, Mengde?

Jia xu: Oho, so this is Lord Cao Cao. All the preparations have been made.


The Power of Pursuit [ Video here ]

Cao Cao: Lu Bu, that power of yours is admirable.

Xiahou Dun: You can't mean that, Mengde.

Guo Jia: It's all right.

Cao Cao: Hm. Lu Bu and Zhang Liao. I have a question for you. What is power?

Lu Bu: Hn. How foolish. Power only means to battle, to win, and to acquire everything.

Zhang Liao: For me, it's to be aware of how to fulfill one's own convictions.

[ slash ]

Jia Xu: And so Lu Bu's neck was sliced while Zhang Liao was accepted. Lord Guo Jia, doesn't Cao Cao pursue power? I believe Lu Bu's power is unbelievable.

Guo Jia: Regardless of the extent of someone's power, one can't fight with someone who doesn't have an equal amount of confidence.

Jia Xu: Haha, I see!

Guo Jia: You already seem fine on that account.


Pre-Battle of Guandu [ Video here ]

Guo Jia: Well then, it's too late to be saying this, but the difference in both ours and their troops is clear. In other words, striking them from the front is not an option.

Cao Pi: I understand what you mean, but how do we break through then?

Jia Xu: Well, that's where I come in. Right now, both options of crossing by harbor and on horses are being restricted by Yuan Shao's armies. First, we'll raid them there. If that happens, we can advance into the enemy's side of the bridge.

Cao Pi: Hm. However, our enemy won't just watch us passively.

Guo Jia: That's right. We'll need a distraction. While they respond to the large army's warning, we can attack from the front.

Yue Jin: Ah, then...if I may be forward, I'll fulfill this role.


Death of Yuan Shao [ Video here ]

Yuan Shao: Cao Cao, you .... do you plan to kill me? ... Me, your friend since we were young ...? Me, a member of the Han Dynasty... You were a man beneath me.

Cao Cao: That's enough, Yuan Shao. Your people have become trivial. Your dynasty, your impressive army. Hadn't the land escaped your grasp while you possessed all this power?

Yuan Shao: What are you saying, Cao Cao?

Cao Cao: I'm saying that you lost because you don't understand anything. This is your final farewell, Yuan Shao. I will surpass you and take the land.

Jia Xu: ...well, that was an admirable victory. I'm pretty amazed, Lord Guo Jia. Lord Guo Jia?

Guo Jia: ...Ah.... I'm sorry. I've been using my head a little too much, huh? Well then, with this, the state of this era will make a big change. Let's help Lord Cao Cao conquer the land with our plans.


Death of Guo Jia [ Video here ]

Cao Cao: With this, does our battle with the Yuan come to an end? Yuan Shao, your sons lived off such clumsy military practices.

Guo Jia: It's over, it seems.

Cao Cao: Be careful, Guo Jia. Someone, bring a horse!

Zhang Liao: Ha!

Guo Jia: Lord Cao Cao...

Cao Cao: Hm? Speak.

Guo Jia: When we return to camp, ... a banquet...

---

Guo Jia: Jia Xu...

Jia Xu: Hm?

Guo Jia: May I tell you you something between us two alone?

Jia Xu: Ah.

Guo Jia: It's no secret to anyone anymore. You are the best strategist in Cao Cao's army.

Jia Xu: What's with this all of the sudden? How did you benefit from having to carry me along?

Guo Jia: For Lord Cao Cao ... I beg of you.

Jia Xu: Hey! Lord Cao Cao! Guo Jia is-!

Cao Cao: Don't say it. You don't need to say it. Farewell, Guo Jia.


Zhenji & Cao Pi "If" Stage [ Video here ]

Zhen: What is it? You're noisy.

Enemy Soldier: Prepare yourself !

Cao Pi: Have you lost your minds? Even though you try to conceal Cao Wei, these troubled times only intensify it. Why can't you understand that?

Enemy Soldier: We refuse to recognize the land of Cao Wei!

Cao Pi: So you'll only say that now because Cao Mengde isn't here? How disgusting.

Xiahou Yuan: Aa, good. Are you guys safe?

Xiahoun Dun: It's like this all over. Things won't calm down until the guy who is pulling the threads behind the scenes is killed.

Cao Pi: Heh...I think his caretakers alone are tedious. Let's take our own enjoyment from this entertainment.


The Power of One's Most Valuable Asset [ Video here ]

Emperor: Excellent. At this time, we've gathered to celebrate your victory.

Cao Cao: However, Your Highness, putting yourself in danger like this...

Emperor: No assassin would appear before your army. Everyone, will you line up before us? Show us the image of heroism. This is all the result of your power, Cao Cao.

Cao Cao: I treasure this power. Namely, we treasure the power you the emporer has bestowed on us.

Emperor: It pleases us to have a retainer such as yourself.


Shu


Guan Yu's Capture [ Video here ]

Zhange Fei: You gave us a hard time...Come! Prepare yourself!

Guo Jia: Heh.... I gave you a hard time... huh? Hm. That's good. Though I've worn you guys out, I wonder if you'll be able to endure this again? Or would it be more appropriate to repeat after you and say "Prepare yourself"?

Zhang Fei: Damn it! This shit again ?

Guan Yu: Yide, get our brother out of here!

Zhang Fei: Don't do anything stupid! I'll help you!

Guan Yu: No! Right now, you have to get our brother out of here!

Liu Bei: Yunchang!

Guan Yu: We'll go our separate ways for a little while! Now go, Yide!
