Imperial commander General Lu Zhi is in command of 50,000 soldiers. They are currently in a fierce battle with the Yellow Turbans under Zhang Jiao. Liu Bei was one of his students when he was 15 years old. He learnt literature and military strategies under General Lu Zhi and he likes Liu Bei so much for this honesty. General Lu Zhi ordered Liu Bei’s volunteer army to march to Ying Chuan as reinforcement.

However, the battle for humanity against the corrupt government has taken a toll of General Lu Zhi’s life. General Lu Zhi refused the bribes from an Imperial envoy. And thus, Liu Bei’s future is also seems to be very tough.

Liu Bei was then plan to ally with Cao Cao against Lu Bu. However, the plan was exposed. This has lead Lu Bu attacked Liu Bei in Xiao Pei. But instead he fell into the trap of Chen Gui and Chen Deng that are using them to attack each other. Thereafter, Cao Cao’s troops were then pursuing to Lu Bu and he has no choice but hiding in Xia Pi.

Lu Bu was besieged by Cao Cao in Xia Pi city. Xia Pi is fenced by Yishui and Sishui river, which form a natural barrier, making it easy to defend. The siege was between the end of fall season and the beginning of winter. Due to the fear of Lu Bu and Yuan shu. Cao Cao set up watch towers and blockaded the entire region. Liu Bei and his brothers were ordered to supervise the blockade against Nan Yang.A few days later, Zhang Fei realized that there is small team of Lu Bu’s envoy being sent to ask Yuan Shu for reinforcements. Zhang Fei waits at the pass to block their return.

One month later, the winter’s wind blew madly, chilling both armies. Both Cao Cao and Lu Bu were unable to move and thus they had to stop fighting for a while. Lu Bu spent his days in drinking wine because he was unable to ask for Yuan Shu’s help. Cao Cao then change his strategy by using the natural river to to attack Xia Pi. Xia Pi was completely flooded.

The defending army was panic and was forced to stay at higher platforms. Because of this incident Lu Bu instruct no body shall drink wine as he will behead anyone who dare to drink wine. Hou Cheng (Lu Bu’s General) was unaware of this instruction. He invited Lu Bu for a dinning party with wine celebration. This has caused Lu Bu almost behead Hou Cheng.

On that night, all generals decided to surrender to Cao Cao because of the intolerance of Lu Bu. At the same day of Hou Cheng’s surrender, Cao Cao attacked Xia Pi city. After the battle was over, Lu Bu was exhausted and went to sleep. Wei Xu and Song Xian take this opportunity quietly tight up Lu Bu and open the gate to let Cao Cao’s troops go in to the city. And that’s the end of Lu Bu. The spectacular end of the Lu Bu, truly marks the beginning of the chaotic era.

Recently I bought a set of CDs TV series 84 episodes, Romance Of The Three Kingdoms. It's a story about the war of three Kingdoms, Wei, Shu and Wu. It is a well recognized part of Chinese history which happened during an era of disunity called the Six Dynasties. The famous story has been made into a movie named The Red Cliff and was release globally in last year. The following is the story of 1st episode.

It was 184AD, Spring of Jian Ning year in China. People were in great fear due to a strange bright light plunged into Huang He river. These indicated a bad sign that something is going to happened. China sink into an unprecedented disaster. Heavy taxes imposed by the government causes misery to the people. This scenario became worse by unceasing misfortunes and plagues. And thus the people are deprived of their livelihood.

In addition, people throughout the land began to revolt one after another. The largest peasant rebel forces was lead by a Taoist named Zhang Jiao also known as the Yellow Turbans. Several hundred thousands peasants all across the country joined effort to overthrow the corrupt government.

At this point, there were 3 heroes sworn as brothers with the desires of a peaceful and safe country. Liu Bei (Liu Xuande), Guan Yu (Yunchang), Zhang Fei (Yide) started raise army and safe the people from the Yellow Turban rebels. Having sworn as brothers, the three begins their journey across the country to gather heroes and warriors. In this chaotic world, the story of the Three Kingdoms began.

Recently I just signed up a loan package with CIMB Bank for my new house. I have been searching and have done so many research before I manage to find my dream house. Although this is not really so called my "Dream House", It's at least 50% looks similar before renovation. I still need to wait 3 months for the processing of Loan agreement, sales and agreement things like that before I can move in to my new house. It's gonna cost me a lot for the deposit, lawyer fees and renovation fees.

Therefore, nowadays I'm very aggressively searching for my side income in order to earn more money. Part of it is read email and earn cash program. This is a Singapore based company. Just read email from advertiser you can earn money without joining fees. Click HERE to believe it!

This year really busy. So many plans need to carry out. However, everything was not so smooth since 1st Jan 2009 because car was sending in to workshop for overhaul on that day. And follow by the second week car was sending in again because of the break down of computer box. The worst part is, the mechanic is not able to find a replacement for the computer box.

Finally, I have only two options. Either sell off the car or send it to the Kia workshop (Kia workshop is gonna give me a thousand figure's bill). Well, I can't make decision until they give me a quote.

Meanwhile, I can only take train to work. I have to stop my cake business and some leisure activities. Although it was not a good start at the beginning of year 2009, I believe it's good to let the bad luck goes before the good luck comes.
