So, what can I say about today's episode in relation to the novel? 1:09 I introduced Cao Ren back in Episode 19. He's Cao Cao's cousin and one of his top generals. 1:36 The standard romanization seems to be "Xuchang." Back Liu Bei's campaign against Yuan Shu, Cao Cao moved the Emperor there and made it the capital. (I don't know what the Emperor was doing at Xuzhou. Probably just added there so the player knew there was in fact an Emperor in this game.) He retreats there after being released by Guan Yu. 2:03 Chen Jiao is only mentioned a handful of times in the novel, as a subordinate to Cao Ren who's placed in charge of defending the city of...Nanjun, if I'm reading this right. Someone commented on the previous video the Southland disappears from the game's narrative after the Battle of Red Cliffs, but in the novel they continue to be major players, including the upcoming Jingzhou campaign. Chen Jiao is captured after the battle described here, and apparently gets set loose at some point because he's mentioned a couple times after this campaign. One time much later he's identified as the "Minister of War," and one time after that he's one of forty officials who petition the Emperor to do a thing I won't spoil here. 10:18 I'll elaborate more on the "Tally Order" (I'm not 100% sure what that actually _is_ but I found the relevant passages) and what happens with the city Chen Jiao was holding another time. Probably next episode.
Aaaayyyy!!!! Glad as heck 2 have you back, HCBailly! I hope you are well! I sincerely appreciate you, my friend! Cheers to all of the friends & fans of, Lord HCBailly! 😎💎✌️
