Extended information

Introduction to "Bo Wang Shao Tuen":

A Yuan Dynasty drama work, the full name is "Zhuge Liang Bowang Shao Tuen". The author's name is unknown. There are existing copies of "Thirty Kinds of Yuankan Zaju" and a proof-reading version of the Mai Wang Guan notes. The work writes that Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei invited Zhuge Liang to come out and worship him as a military advisor. At that time, Cao Cao ordered Xiahou to lead 100,000 troops to attack Liu Bei.

Main content:

Zhuge Liang mobilized his troops and generals and defeated Cao's army in Bowang. Only Zhang Fei did not get any credit and had to plead guilty to Zhuge Liang. After Cao Cao's defeat, he sent military advisor Guan Tong to lobby Zhuge Liang, but this also ended in failure. Some clues can be found in the plot of this play from the "Kong Ming Descends the Mountain" section of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but with the addition of the plot of Guantong's lobbying, it is very different from the description of Bowang Po's military use in the later "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Character introduction:

Zhuge Liang is resourceful and loyal; the portrayal of Zhang Fei is also quite vivid. He is rough and brave, knows his mistakes and can correct them, and has the temperament of a reckless hero.
