Liu Bei was born in Zhuoxian County (now Zhuozhou City, Hebei Province) at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. He is a descendant of Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan in the Western Han Dynasty. Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan took Lu Zhi as their teacher, and then participated in suppressing the Yellow Scarf Uprising. Together with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he rescued Kong Rong in Beihai and Tao Qian in Xuzhou. Tao Qian gave Xuzhou to Liu Bei after his death. Liu Bei was displaced from place to place in his early days and took refuge in many governors. Later, he defeated Cao Cao in the alliance between Battle of Red Cliffs and Sun Quan, captured Jingzhou, made progress in Yizhou, and then captured Hanzhong. 22 1 year, Liu Bei proclaimed himself emperor in Chengdu, with the title of Han and Zhangwu. In order to avenge Zhang Guan, he sent his troops to attack Wu Dong. Lu Xun burned down the camp of Yiling, and the defeat weakened the Han State. In 223 AD, Liu Bei died in Baidicheng at the age of 63. There are many literary and artistic works about him in later generations. Wuhou Temple in Chengdu commemorates Zhaolie Temple. [ 1 1]
