Three Kingdoms: Battle of Red Cliffs (2 of 3)

[usbfailedtowork]

Cao cao was very close at uniting the land, fck you zhuge liang

[irsyadmuhbastaman]

Where is Zhuge liang ?

[Xakyoda20]

Why would shu and wu ally themselves.Poor Cao Cao.

[chapol1m]

the pang tong "advise" is just in the novel

the historical records state that cao cao chained the ships to minimize the troops seasick

[zGanningz]

93 dead, 217 burn victims, and 81 other injuries

[iReinDoodlezPopz6262]

atleast 50 people died in the making of this i believe

[armanazuki08]

cao cao,isnt a military genius at all,..he have half milion infantry and cavalry,...what the heck he is trying to fight a navy battle??just round up at jiangdong and there u smash them like fly

[y34r]

@armanazuki08

Well,yeah great men can fall,

but its trait of the best of all great men,that they could recover from fall and learn from their mistake and grow even better

and i think Cao cao did that so greatfully

[ksoriano100]

id rather have sex with a girl but look up the game dynasty warriors 1 /2/3/4/5 or game 6 or warriors orochi 1 or 2

[BATURUSHA]

2:30,lookz like Chinese opera^^

[NelTuEspada]

this reminds me of takeshis castle XD

[BOORIJINAL]

LMFAO!!!!

[cooldude360an]

my eye hurt watching this.Remember Cao Cao is a better Leader then he seem in this battle.He listened to wrong atvise so he lost.

[wwedynastywarriors]

ships people fire insane

[Solaris1986]

The only one reason why Cao Cao's forces ealily defeated in this battle because he listened to Pang Tong and chained all his ships together. This made them a formidable floating castle but vulberable to only fire attack. Cao Cao has his ship chained and the wind was flowing into his battlement way. It was destined for Cao Cao to lose this battle, or else the history would be different.

[xDAZZE]

@Solaris1986 The ships were chained together so the soldiers won't be seasick. The Wei country, unlike Wu, were mostly from the northern and far from the sea, they're not used to water battles. Wu has a very long shoreline plus southeastern China is known for its waters.

[Slixer]

@Solaris1986 well that, the 200 mile march he made his troops take to get there, lack of food, lack of the troops experience at sea battles, the diseases from such a massive change in climate, the many hit and run attacks done by Wu and Liu Bei.

[mummum]

Yes,It's only a made up story from ZhuGeLiang.

Because he wanted Wu To help shu to Fight Wei

[walroar]

Cao Cao looks like scaredy cat here

[Jesushands12]

the Qiao sisters being Cao Cao's target was a rumor ment to stir morale for Wu

[ArmyBoy92]

Cao Cao fight this war because of a woman..which is xiao qiao

[walroar]

No, It's only a made up story. Cao Cao true intention is to become the emperor

[Baseballschaap]

seems a bigger goal than just humping a girl anyways xD

[viccandice]

If Cao Cao could be more intellegent then he should order his navy ship to move forward in a straight line....creat a fence to let all the fire boat burnt with it. Then they would not suffer such a demage.

[yifanwang99]

They were ambushed, they thought the enemy general once coming to surrender but they actually came to set fire and Caocao was unprepared.

[Pyromaniac1230]

No i think they didn't even know that the general was surrendering. The general only PROPOSED that idea to try to save the guy's wife. Also it was a bit too late move the ships ahead since ALL the ships were linked together, not just a couple.

[XiaohahaPwnz]

Cao Cao had 830,000 troops in the novel, which he masqueraded as "1 million troops".

In actual history, the amount is about 200,000 to 300,000.

[xiaoqiao91]

where xiao qiao?

[geoffc]

Xiao Qiao is not involved in the war. The john Woo movie version is not accurate, just wanna an important female lead thts all.

[PrincessPeach777]

wait, xiao qiao fights in john woo's film? was it her that hit that guy with a torch??

[daniel0212]

nice film.

but... 1 million on boats? LMFAO

wat an exaggerrated statistic

[aznpride0]

Cao cao have over one million troop dude, is not fake.

[pandazaaaa]

only about 850,000 died

[zsugiart]

Cao's troops is 1 million, but they are made up of various other troops (gained through 'acquisition') so during a state of massive chaos like this, the hierarchical structure doesn't hold.

When Cao saw the fire boat approaching, he panicked. And he have every reason to do so, he knew that if his 1 million troops panicked, all hell break loose, and it did.

So much can be learned from this movie.

[Volt46]

If only it wasn't during winter, the Cao Cao camp will be scorched like hell itself. Since, it is winter, it takes only a few minutes for the fire to die out.

[Revolution177]

Were it not for the courage of Zhang Liao and the other commanders, Cao Cao would likely have been slain or captured.

[terryts2]

i was going for burned alive or drowned, but, captured sounds good to

[terryts2]

Cao Cao was lucky to escape with his life.

[Musashib00]

It was a Massacre

[terryts2]

i see. but my youtube upload thing is screwed up because i couldnt watch but the first 45 seaconds, so i couldnt get the full details of how bad it was

[Revolution177]

He barely did
