Bao Su

Dies in this chapter. Left to camp at the mouth of the Qishan Mountains Valley as the covering force while Jiang Wei takes the main army by Dongting toward Nanan — which makes him the one man Chen Tai can reach: 'Chen Tai has destroyed the force under Bao Su, and he himself was killed. All that was left of that army has gone back into Hanzhong.' Losing him is what closes the Dongting road and turns the retreat into a scramble down by-roads.
