- During a Chaotic civil war, a warlord of the times would live the greatest social ascension possible, going from weaving mats and making sandals to survive, to becoming an Emperor. This man was Liu Bei.
In this Liu Bei documentary, I expose Liu Bei's biography.

love seeing the little "Three Kingdoms" clips thrown in here and there, such a good show
Thanks ! Yeah it's a great series :)
Cao Caos laugh in the 2010 show brings me unlimited joy
Hi mate, just stumbled on this channel, great stuff. I wish more people were interested in Chinese history, it's not easy to find that many good quality videos or documentaries like this.
I'd love to see a piece on Sui, I think its prosperity is often overlooked in favour of the Tang golden age.
Hi ! Thanks for your comment :)
I'm planning to make a general video for each dynasty, so I'll cover Sui eventually ;)
@@History_of_China I just discovered this channel so I will really appreciate a general history video. I can’t wait
Thank you, Whenever I’ve tried reading about the wars of the three kingdoms my brain gets tied up in knots 🙏
5:20 cheeky Dong Zhuo’S theme from Total War
Good to know the 'Records' version of his life for once. I didn't know that Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan have been friends in the past.
Saw you’re covering these names that are so familiar !! I still play Romance of the 3 Kingdoms II and III on my laptop occasionally. I can finally learn more about them. 👍👍
Great! We desperately need these series on the Three Kingdoms!
Wish we learned about history like this at school, we only heard & learned about 1 - 2 nd WW like a billion times... Much gratitude for your videos man!
This is the best series of history i have ever heard in my life .. i watch all movies and series of the three kingdoms ..! 😊❤👌
Hail the Satan of devils 666 is powerless
Love your level of details and production value of your videos! Keep doing this good and you will blow up, soon!
Thanks for your comment :)
"Rise Dragon Of The East!!" LOL awesome 👌 love it!!
Great to see that you used in the beginning a picture of the Long Corridor. I am doing a series of all the paintings in the Long Corridor of Yiheyuan. Great work. Greetings from Beijing.
Great documentary on another very prominent figure in human history we westerners tend to know far to less about.
Coming from Musou games I just discover the history of ancient China and especially the period of the three kingdoms.
Im looking forward to part 2!
Thanks ! Glad you enjoyed :)
Extremely underrated channel. SUB!
i wish more people cared about chinese history
I think at least 1/4th of the world cares a whole lot, and probably much more. That's quite a bit. Much more than other regions.
Only subject I like more than the Three Kingdoms is the Manchu. This channel provides both.
Manchu got sinicized but they are distinct from classical chinese culture.
As usual, another excellent video good sir.
Thank you sir ;)
Truly your videos are an auspicious sign that the Han will be restored and an era of great lore uploads is at hand! Let it be said, among videos your documentaries, among youtubers, History of China! May all under Heaven subscribe!
Great video‘ :-) reminds me of my ancient China history classes !
Thanks ! I'm glad you enjoy :)
i love how you use romance of the three kingdom 11 (game) animated pictures
Thanks :)
I’ve always been curious if there was anything at all to Lu Bu’s story? In most games he’s always a very useful but easily swayed general.
he dies really early in history captured by cao cao
More three kingdoms videos please
My love for dynasty warriors brought me here lol
Same bro
@@freelanceart1019 das love lol
Suffice to say Liu Bei was useless without Kong Ming.
I'll talk about Zhuge Liang in the second part ;)
I would say Fa Zheng was far more important to Liu Bei during his campaigns.
Liu Bei was a _far_more capable commander than the real life Zhuge Liang.
after the defeat of Lu Bu, Liu Bei could served Cao Cao and be one of his generals. But his idealism, his dream to someday become the Emperor and Cao's disrespect toward the Han Emperor caused him to betray Cao Cao.
Very informative. Clear voice. Nice work.
Cheers !
Now I have one question on my mind: Why was anyone trusting Lü Bu?
This guy was clearly bad business!
Very true. It is said that he had great charm though and expertly knew how to manipulate.
Lu Bu was also said to be a Beast in battle with people often comparing him to Guan Yu.
AGS363 beyond what the above said he was a very inspiring leader, often drinking and pillaging right alongside his troops in celebration and generously giving out rewards to those under his command.
He was a very good fighter
Talk about snakepit politics. Is there a single one of these guys who could be considered at all trustworthy? For that matter, was loyalty of this sort considered a social norm among the powerful at the time? These guys seem awfully quick to forgive each other's betrayals and take former enemies into their service. Can anyone provide insight? I'm honestly curious.
Also, amazing work as always, HoC! I love how you're refining your visual style. :)
Thank you ! About your question, I think Sun Zi's Art of War mentions how you can enlist enemy generals and agents by paying them more and treating them better than their previous employer. Historical China is very different than Japan in that matter, as it was often normal to change allegiance. In more stable periods of Imperial China however, defecting was more frowned upon.
@@History_of_China Thanks! That makes sense.
Happy New Year and thanks for the great video. I wonder why Liu Bei is so often portrayed as a hero? He lost as much as he won and more importantly he was quite partial to betraying patrons.
Happy New Year ! Glad you enjoyed :)
I think the reason Liu Bei is often seen as a hero is because he was well liked by the general population, often being easy on taxes and laws
@@History_of_China Yet his nemesis Cao Cao, brought stability to the North, was generous to his subordinates and had a much greater success in military terms, yet he is vilified in popular culture.
@@426mak thanks to the brilliant Chinese Manchu Emperors and Manchu chinese scholars who favoured Liu Bei, while actively demonized Cao Cao back during the Qing (清)Dynasty; it is said Cao Cao was as opportunistic as Dong Zhuo, according to Qianlong text, Cao Cao 😈 incarnate. A saying in Chinese : “说曹操,曹操就到” translates to Speak of Cao Cao, Cao Cao appears. Edit: speak of the devil, he appears.
IKR? In the Romance, he just kept screwing up! I think he was the hero because of his Han lineage
@@426mak So true! Thank you!👍🙂
This is very well made
Thank you!
2:05 this right here.
Liu Bei listed for power like most warlords of the time. He is not the virtuous, do-no-wrong leader that so many ROTK fanboys believe. The real Liu Bei was just a cunning, opportunistic throne seeker. He betrayed or took advantage of almost everyone he came in contact with.
Sun Quan and Cao Cao were actually really good leaders in their prime; funny how many people hold Liu Bei in such high regard but view Cao Cao and Sun Quan as evil or traitorous.
I agree with you. In my opinion, I would say Cao Cao achieved power through logic, Liu Bei trough charm, and Sun Quan through the sense of duty.
Liu Bei didn’t commit one of the biggest genocides in Chinese history or buried surrendered troops alive. That might have something to do with it. Ya hear that, Cao Cao?
@@memesa2312 Cao Cao was not an evil man, he was very virtuous to his officers, subordinates and some adversaries like Xu Shu, and Sima Yi. Cao Cao implemented many rice land reform policies that favoured peasantry owning lands. However, during ChiBi he made very arrogant foolish decisions which caused alot of grief amongst the common folk governed population.
That was because Luo Guanzhong wrote Romance of the Three Kingdoms during the Ming Dynasty in which Liu Bei was deemed as the legitimate successor to the Han Dynasty. He based it on folklore and Chinese operas which supported Liu Bei and disliked Cao Cao. Besides, Luo Guanzhong idolised Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei's advisor.
Didn't cao cao commits genocide left and right? Did Liu Bei ever commit genocide on such a scale? Liu Bei having ambition as a young man is not a great basis to determine his overall character.
11:00 the frenemies relationship of Liu Bei - Lu Bu - Cao Cao is interesting to follow. each backstabbing each other everytime there's an opportunity
Most interesting era in Chinese history.
Another great one! Thank you! Remarkably similar to the "Romance". I think Liu Bei was somewhat of a screw up. Do you have a piece on Cao Cao? I read that in reality he was a pretty good leader, not to mention that delicious breaded chicken dish🙂
lmao breaded chicken! if you're referring to General Tso's chicken, that dish was named after a Qing dynasty general :) cao cao does have a completely different chicken dish named after him though! ancient Chinese leaders must've really liked chicken
Bravo. Very impressive work.
Ooo hype!
I just want to take a moment to say, “ITS LU BU!!!!
never realized just how many battles he lost before he rose up lol
He got beat a lot! 😂 great vid. Shame the total war game wasn’t up to being as good as the story.
How the fuck do your videos only have a few thousand views. Keep going, eventually you'll outplay the algorithm and you'll explode.
Thanks ! Hope I will lol :)
Sharing and liking help a lot !
Is this based on records or romance?
It's based on Records of the Three Kingdoms!
Liu Bei biography??? More like the Main character in ROTK!!!
Luo Guanzhong wrote it in the Ming Dynasty and at that time, Liu Bei was viewed as the legitimate successor of the Han Dynasty
Could you do Kong rong please he is my hero
I'll likely do a video about famous descendants of Confucius. I'll definitely about about him there :)
Your English is eloquent and accent is native-like. Are you a native speaker?
Thanks ! Part of my family is English :)
Great vid !
Thanks, hope you enjoyed !
Great vid :)
If not for Koei, I wouldn't be interested in learning the history of China or these ancient wars that took place centuries ago.
1. Liu Bei, descendant of Liu Sheng, warlord of late Han Dynasty, king of Hanzhong and first emperor of Shu Han.
2. Guan Yu, sworn brother and general of Liu Bei under the late Han Dynasty.
3. Zhang Fei, sworn brother and general of Liu Bei under the late Han Dynasty and Shu-Han.
Whose system of spelling is used to form the English sounding of names? I'm not familiar with it. Thanks!
It's something called Pinyin, literally translating to 'spelling sounds.' There have been romanizations of Mandarin Chinese for centuries, however the current official form was made in 1958 by the Chinese govt.
It mostly resembles English pronunciation except for the following differences:
Q = 'ch'
X = 'sh'
A = 'ah'
I = 'ee'
E = 'eh' or 'er'

I'll add the musics in the description :) They're from Total War : Three Kingdoms
@@History_of_China Did you get the permissions to use the assets from TWTK? I'd hate to see this amazing work struck down by Sega's lawyers.
@@Archangelm127 I didn't, but since I state where the music is from and don't make any money off of it, I don't think I'll get in trouble ^^ If Sega shows up I'll just change the music lol

@THOC why start your history segmant with the 3 kingdoms , surely you could start with a Han Emperor Like Wudi , or Guangwu ? Even better from Qin Shi Huang . just my opinion mate .
I definitely will talk about these guys, I just haven't got to for the moment. I eventually plan to cover all dynasties and China's most important figures :)
👍👍🙂❤️ You can and should set up a join or donate account with PayPal! I'm in😉
China and india
Lu Bu men... 😂
I personally think Lui Bei wasn't a good man. He claimed that he descended from the imperial line which I think he just deceived everyone.
would that make you necessarily a bad man? and pretty sure they can at least partially track his origins...
Liu Bei the baby thrower. Long live the Prime Minister Cao Cao ^_^
