Guan Yu?


where does the story fit in? I've already finished red cliff 1 and 2 and ressurrection of the dragon

It happened years before red cliff, I think.

Well, maybe I could help you understand the history a little bit. But first, I need to clear something out. Resurrection of the Dragon doesn't has any connection whatsoever with overall of the movie, since the movie itself has a lot of things wrong in term of the real history.

As for the event of The Lost Bladesman, it occured years before Liu Bei was defeated in the first movie of Red Cliff. I guess, there's still a lot of event passed after General Guan get through all the trials and reunited with his brothers at Gucheng after he found out that his brothers were no longer there, at Yuan Shao's place.

Hope this helps :)

glad to help you since I'm a Chinese and a huge fan of Three Kingdoms lol


this happened before/during the battle of Guandu between Caocao and Yuanshao. Caocao eventually won and conquered the North, then he starts the Campaign to the South at Jingzhou, where GuanYu returned to LiuBei and where they temperory stayed(also the place where Liubei found and recruit Zhuge Liang).
Because they're no match against Caocao's huge army, Liubei fleed to Sun Quan's place and seek help/alliance against Caocao, then Red Cliff happened...

However the Res. of the Dragon, many errors and contradictions in that movie.
First of all, there's no women in the battlefield. I can understand the fictional story which is okay to me, but the real event was that Zhao Yun didn't died(actually he was ambushed but nothing serious happened, and no major generals from Shu died unlike what the movie suggested. and at the end Guan Xing and Zhao Bao rescued him...)
