Following the Battle of the Red Cliffs, Cao Cao must rebuild his forces while Bei Liu and Quan Sun bicker over the spoils of war. The struggle for the throne will ultimately depend upon which man--Cao Cao, Quan Sun, or Bei Liu--is the better diplomat.

In a bid for power, Bei Liu and Quan Sun form an alliance to battle Cao Cao at the Red Cliffs. The winner will gain the upper hand in the struggle for the throne, but a single error could have terrible consequences.

Desperate, Bei Liu entrusted Liang Zhuge with his military strategy and that has proven to be a wise decision. The balance of power between the three kingdoms has already shifted and Liang Zhuge will soon prove that a battle can be won without weapons.

Bei Liu and his brothers gain a mysterious ally and brace themselves for a future in which new battle lines will be drawn, as the era of the three kingdoms begins.

Finally reunited after the battle against Cao Cao, Bei Liu, Yu Guan, and Fei Zhang renew their blood oath to restore their homeland, but with Cao Cao still controlling most of the country and a new power rising in the East, it is not going to be an simple task.

Now the three most powerful men in China, Cao Cao, Bei Liu, and Quan Sun are learning that fortune does not always favor the strong and a cruel fate can be handed down through generations.

The night before Bei Liu's challenge against Cao Cao for the role of most powerful man in China, Shao Yuan, Bei Liu's ally, withdraws his support and Bei Liu is forced to flee for his life, leaving Yu Guan to fend for himself against Cao Cao. Cao Cao, however, would like to have Yu Guan on his side and tries to get Yu Guan to change his allegiance.
