The Romance of the Three Kingdoms Podcast. This Is Episode 48. Last
Welcome to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms Podcast. This is episode 48. Last time, Sun Quan and the troops of the Southlands had just defeated and killed Huang (2) Zu (3), a close friend and top commander of Liu Biao, the imperial protector of Jing (1) Province. Sun Quan had also captured the key city of Jiangxia (1,4), which Huang Zu was defending. Upon receiving Huang Zu’s head, Sun Quan ordered that it be placed in a wooden box and taken back to the Southlands to be placed as an offering at the altar of his father, who had been killed in battle against Liu Biao years earlier. He then rewarded his troops handsomely, promoted Gan Ning, the man who defected from Huang Zu and then killed him in battle, to district commander, and began discussion of whether to leave troops to garrison the newly conquered city. His adviser Zhang Zhao (1), however, said, “A lone city so far from our territory is impossible to hold. We should return to the Southlands. When Liu Biao finds out we have killed Huang Zu, he will surely come looking for revenge. We should rest our troops while he overextends his. This will guarantee victory. We can then attack him as he falls back and take Jing Province.” Sun Quan took this advice and abandoned his new conquest and returned home. But there was still the matter of Su (1) Fei (1), the enemy general he had captured. This Su Fei was friends with Gan Ning and was actually the one who helped him defect to Sun Quan. -

They also manage their armies- comprising of troops infantrymen who fight on foot, cavalrymen who fight on horseback, charioteers who fight using horse-drawn chariots, artillerymen who use long-ranged artillery, and sailors and marines who fight using wooden ships- through actions such as recruitment, collection of food and supplies, and training exercises to ensure that their soldiers are well-trained, well-fed, well-armed, and well-supplied. -
The Romance of the Three Kingdoms Podcast. This Is Episode 52
Welcome to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms Podcast. This is episode 52. Previously, we left off with one of the most memorable sequences in the novel, in which Zhao Yun rescued Liu Bei’s infant son, A Dou (1,3), and fought his way through swarms of Cao Cao’s troops to escape. But no sooner had he left the bulk of Cao Cao’s army behind did he run into two more detachments of enemy soldiers, led by two lieutenants under the command of Cao Cao’s general Xiahou Dun. These two guys were brothers. One wielded a battle axe, while the other used a halberd, and they were shouting for Zhao Yun to surrender. Zhao Yun, of course, paid no heed to their words and greeted them with his spear. Within three bouts, the elder brother, the axe-wielder, was stabbed off his horse. Zhao Yun took the opening and ran. The younger brother, however, gave chase. As he closed in, the tip of his halberd flashed around Zhao Yun’s back. But Zhao Yun suddenly turned around, and the two were face to face right next to each other. Wielding his spear in his left hand, Zhao Yun blocked the halberd. At the same time, his right hand pulled out the prized sword that he had taken from Cao Cao’s sword-bearer earlier in the day. Where the sword landed, half of his opponent’s head and helmet went flying off. Seeing their leaders killed, the enemy soldiers scattered, and Zhao Yun once again fled toward Changban (2,3) Bridge. -
2015 Incense Conference: Culture of Incense
2015 Incense Conference: Culture of Incense (Selective) English summary of “Han Dynasty Incense Archaeological Discoveries” (漢代出土薰器具形制) Talk given by Liu Hai Wang (劉海旺) (Henan Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology) 1 May 2015 Translation by Joanne Ng The tradition of incense and aromatics in China The tradition of incense has been a part of the lives of Chinese people for more than a thousand years. As mentioned in ancient literature, the Chinese have been using aromatic plants in their daily lives since the Yellow Emperor. According to the text Xiang Cheng1 《香 乘》, incense was used by Huangdi 黃帝 to classify the ministers who were working for him. The different uses of aromatics: Insect prevention: According to experimentation conducted in the Zhou Dynasty, aromatics can be used to ward off mosquitos and pests; they also help to improve the air quality and to purify the air indoors. Seasoning and ingredients for making alcoholic drinks: aromatics such as curcuma were usually involved in the process of making alcohol. These alcoholic drinks were served in rituals, banquets and other important events. The aromatics were also used as condiments, to season food, to improve taste and provide flavoring. Mortuary objects: Aromatics were usually found near the tombs of the rich, the nobility (e.g. the emperor), and warriors. For example, 2Chinese prickly ashes 花椒 were found in abundance in the tomb of Lady Meng Ji 黄君夫人孟姬; Chinese prickly ashes were also found in ten beautiful bronze boxes in the tomb of Lady Ju Yu 句敔夫人; prickly ashes were also placed inside a medical bag in the tomb of Changsha Ma Wang 長沙馬 王. -

Dynamics of Disintegration: The Later Han Empire (25-220CE) & Its Northwestern Frontier Abstract As a frontier region of the Qin-Han (221BCE-220CE) empire, the northwest was a new territory to the Chinese realm. Until the Later Han (25-220CE) times, some portions of the northwestern region had only been part of imperial soil for one hundred years. Its coalescence into the Chinese empire was a product of long-term expansion and conquest, which arguably defined the egionr 's military nature. Furthermore, in the harsh natural environment of the region, only tough people could survive, and unsurprisingly, the region fostered vigorous warriors. Mixed culture and multi-ethnicity featured prominently in this highly militarized frontier society, which contrasted sharply with the imperial center that promoted unified cultural values and stood in the way of a greater degree of transregional integration. As this project shows, it was the northwesterners who went through a process of political peripheralization during the Later Han times played a harbinger role of the disintegration of the empire and eventually led to the breakdown of the early imperial system in Chinese history. -
On the Transcendence of Morality in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms
2019 5th International Conference on Economics, Management and Humanities Science (ECOMHS 2019) On the Transcendence of Morality in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms Wu Peng Shandong University School of Literature, Shandong Jinan, 250100 Keywords: morality; aesthetics; The Romance of the Three Kingdoms Abstract: The world often likes to judge the good, evil, beauty and ugliness of food with its own values, i.e. moral standards, but the author believes that not all things can be judged in this way. In this paper, the author will take the Romance of the Three Kingdoms as an example to analyze the transcendence of morality in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms from the aspects of morality and artistic value. The word "morality" can be traced back to the ancient thinker Lao Tzu's book "Tao Te Jing". Lao Tzu said, "Dao Sheng, De Zhu, and Material Shape are bound to become one." It is noble to respect all things without respect for morality. The dignity of Tao, the nobility of virtue, the life of Fu Mo is natural. "Tao" refers to the law of natural operation and the philosophy of the world, while "virtue" refers to the character and virtue of a person born in the world. But at that time, Tao and virtue were two independent and unrelated concepts, and there was no word of morality. The word "morality" can also be traced back to Xunzi's "persuasion to learn", in which there is a saying that "learning from etiquette is the end, and the husband is the pole of morality". -

Welcome to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms Podcast. This is episode 14. So I’m back after taking the last couple weeks off to do some charity work and some traveling. I am eager to dive back into the story, and I hope you are too. Last time, we left off with Cao Cao getting all “You killed my father. Prepare to die.” Except in this case it was more like, “The guy you sent to protect my father killed my father. Prepare to die.” Either way, Cao Cao was getting ready to lay siege to Xu Province and kill everyone there to avenge his father’s death. The imperial protector of Xu Province, Tao (2) Qian (1), sent out two messengers to seek help from outside sources. One of these messengers, an official named Mi (2) Zhu (2), went to Beihai (2,3) Prefecture to see the governor there, Kong (3) Rong (2). Now this Kong Rong is a relatively minor character in our story, but in real life, he was considered one of the leading scholars of his time. He was a 20th-generation descendant of Kong Zi, or better known to the west as Confucius. So he’s certainly got the pedigree. And he was supposedly something of a wunderkind, and there are a number of stories of how smart he was as a child. For instance, when he was 10, he went to see Li (3) Ying (1), the governor of Henan Prefecture. The guard at the gate wasn’t about to let this random child in to the governor’s residence.
