Chapter 73 — Liu Bei Becomes The Prince Of Hanzhong; Guan Yu Marches To Attack Xiangyang.
Cao Cao's envoy to the South Land, proposing the joint carve-up of Jingzhou and Hanzhong — then sent to Fancheng as Adviser, where his counsels of defense are twice overridden: by Xiahou Cun's scorn for 'book-folks' before Xiangyang, and by Lu Chang before the river. Left commanding Fancheng's defenses.
Chapter 74 — Pang De Takes His Coffin To The Field; Guan Yu Uses Water To Drown The Seven Armies.
Saves Fancheng with arithmetic and stakes: the flood must pass in ten days, the Jiaxia detachment proves Guan Yu fears for his rear, and retreat means abandoning everything south of the Yellow River. Cao Ren salutes him for it.
Chapter 96 — Shedding Tears, Zhuge Liang Puts Ma Su To Death; Cutting Hair, Zhou Fang Beguiles Cao Xiu.
Leads the second column: 'Jia Kui, assisted by General Man Chong and Governor Hu Zhi of Dongwan, marched to capture Yangcheng, and facing the East Pass.'
Chapter 98 — Pursuing The Shu Army, Wang Shuang Meets His Death; Raiding Chencang, Zhuge Liang Scores A Victory.
At court in Luoyang, and his one act is the report that changes the strategic picture: 'Sun Quan has declared himself Emperor, and Lu Xun is drilling his army in Wuchang. An invasion from the east can be expected soon.' It lands on top of the news from Chencang and is what finally frightens Cao Rui into sending for Sima Yi.
Chapter 103 — In Gourd Valley, Sima Yi Is Trapped; In Wuzhang Hills, Zhuge Liang Invokes The Stars.
Leads the attack. Takes the leading division up to Lake Chaohu, sees a forest of Wu battleships across the water, and proposes hitting them that night because 'the enemy think we shall be fatigued after a long march, and so they have not troubled to prepare any defense'. Attacks from the eastern bank while Zhang Qiu fires the ships, and the Wu marine camp breaks 'without striking a blow'. Later named to Zhuge Liang as one of the three commanders who broke the eastern invasion.
