Appears in 3 chapters:
  • Chapter 3 — In Wenming Garden, Dong Zhuo Denounces Ding Yuan; With Red Hare, Li Su Bribes Lu Bu.
    Li Su, Dong Zhuo's envoy; bribes Lu Bu with Red Hare, gold, pearls, and a peerless place at Dong Zhuo's table - the gift that buys Lu Bu's father-killing defection.
  • Chapter 5 — Cao Cao Appeals To The Powerful Lords; The Three Brothers Fight Against Lu Bu.
    Marches with Hua Xiong to Sishui Pass, devises the midnight front-and-rear attack on the starving van, fires Sun Jian's camp, and shares in the slaughter that kills Zu Mao.
  • Chapter 9 — Lu Bu Kills Dong Zhuo For Wang Yun; Li Jue Attacks The Capital On Jia Xu's Advice.
    Carries the false abdication decree to Meiwo, silkily interpreting every evil omen on the road - broken wheel, snapped reins, black mist - as signs of coming glory, then hacks off Dong Zhuo's head after the halberd strike. Sent against Niu Fu, he is routed in a night attack, and Lü Bu executes him for 'sullying my reputation as a warrior'.
