Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the main story of the serial beauty trap
The Romance of the Three Kingdoms was a stratagem used by Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period, to persuade the Eastern Wu to unite against Cao Wei. Zhuge Liang first sent Guan Yu to Dongwu to convey the news of Cao Wei's rebellion to the general of Dongwu, Lu Meng. At the same time, he sent Diao Chan to the home of Lu Meng's wife, Chen Gong, to use beauty as bait to change Lu Meng's view of Cao Wei and decide to unite with Shu Han to fight Cao Wei. Under Diao Chan's guidance, Lü Meng followed Zhuge Liang's advice and attacked the capital of Cao Wei, Xuchang, and successfully occupied it. Since then, Lü Meng took advantage of the hatred between Shu Han and Wu to launch frequent attacks in the Cao Wei capital, Xuchang, and other places, making the Cao Wei army tired of dealing with them. In the end, Shu Han and Wu defeated Cao Wei under Zhuge Liang's command and achieved a draw. The successful implementation of this plan not only gave Shu Han a temporary advantage, but also laid the foundation for the later battles such as the Battle of Red Cliff and the Battle of Yiling. It became one of the famous strategies in Chinese history.
