Guan Yu, who had been attacking near there at the time, was captured by the alliance of Wu and Wei, and was executed. In 219, Lu Meng, a strategist for Wu, had gained the land of Jing.

Zhuge Liang had prayed at an altar for winds to spread the fire, and because of Pang Tong's chain strategy, the Wei fleet had burned to the sea. Pang Tong had made the Wei army chain their ships together, and when the time was right, Huang Gai and his following unit lit one Wei boat on fire. Wei believed this trick, and welcomed Huang Gai into their army. While Shu strategist Pang Tong was placed into Wei, in order to persuade the enemy, Zhou Yu tortured a Wu veteran, Huang Gai, making it seem like the latter would turn against his force. Zhou Yu, Wu's strategist, devised a master plan with Shu to burn Wei's ships down. With the advice of his new ally, Liu Bei gained lands from relatives, and took his own.Īround the year 208, at the naval battle of Chibi, Zhuge Liang had allied with Wu to attack a common adversary, Wei. On the third visit, Zhuge Liang agreed to help Liu Bei on his conquest. To gain a strategist, Liu Bei visited the hermit Zhuge Liang three times. During that time, Liu Bei gained many followers, including his future oath brothers, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. Before gaining land of his own, Liu Bei had joined the other influential figures against Zhang Jiao and the Yellow Turbans, and also against Dong Zhuo. In the historical novel, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the kingdom of Shu experienced many troubles, and many triumphs. Some attribute it to Jiang Wei's foolishness and political corruption, and some attribute it to Shu's poor lands, which were mountainous and rugged. The cause of Shu's fall has been debated often over the years. In 263 A.D after years of war between Shu and Wei, the Kingdom of Shu Han fell. Jing was subsequently conquered by Wu in 219 A.D. Shu was also comprised of Hanzhong and Jingzhou. Shu was ruled by Liu Bei, who, along with his sworn brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, spent most of his life in exile wandering from lord to lord to escape Cao Cao, until finally seizing the lands of Shu from his cousin Liu Zhang to establish his kingdom. Shu is sometimes symbolized by peach blossoms, a reference to the Peach Garden Oath. In the Dynasty Warriors franchise, the kingdom is symbolized by the color green and a Chinese dragon as a reference to Qinglong.
