Life of the characters

Crusade against Dong Zhuo

Liu Dai's uncle Liu Chong once served as a Taiwei in the Eastern Han Dynasty, while Liu Dai himself served as a vassal and governor of Yanzhou in the Han Dynasty. In the first month of 190 A.D. (the first year of Chuping), a group of heroes from all over the country set up troops to fight for Dong, including Yuan Shao, the prefect of Bohai, Yuan Shu, Han Fu, the prefect of Jizhou, Kong Luo, the prefect of Yuzhou, Liu Dai, the prefect of Yanzhou, Wang Kuang, the prefect of Hanoi, Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu, Zhang Chao, the prefect of Guangling, Qiaomao, the prefect of Dongjun, Yuan Yi, the prefect of Shanyang, and Bao Xin, the Prime Minister of Jibei. At that time, Yuan Shao and Wang kuangtun were stationed in Hanoi, and Zhang Yang led thousands of people to take refuge; Zhang Miao, Liu Dai, Qiao Mao, Yuan Yi and Bao Xin were stationed in suanzao, and Cao Cao was under Zhang Miao's army; Yuan Shu was stationed in Luyang, and Sun Jian rushed to join Yuan Shu from Changsha; Kong Luo was stationed in Yingchuan; Han Fu was stationed in Yecheng to provide military provisions for the Allied forces. Yuan Shao was elected as the leader of the alliance. Later, Liu Dai did not get along with Qiao Mao, the governor of Dongjun. Finally, Liu Dai killed Qiao Mao and appointed Wang Shou as the governor of Dongjun.

Support Yuan Shao

Liu Dai made peace with Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan. Yuan Shao let his family live in Liu Dai's house. Gongsun Zan also sent his subordinates to work as fan Fang and led the army to help Liu Dai. After that, there was a conflict between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan. After Gongsun Zan defeated Yuan Shao's army, he asked Liu Dai to cut off contact with Yuan Shao, and said to fan Fang, "if Liu Dai doesn't drive Yuan Shao's family away, you will lead the army back. When I kill Yuan Shao, I will attack Liu Dai. " Liu Dai can't make up his mind about this for days. Wang Yu tells Liu Dai that it's better to ask Cheng Yu. So Liu Dai summoned Cheng Yu and asked him for advice. Cheng Yu persuaded Liu Dai to help Yuan Shao. Liu Dai listened to his advice. Sure enough, Gongsun Zan was defeated by Yuan Shao soon after.

Died in Yanzhou

In the third year of Chuping (192), the yellow scarf army of Qingzhou attacked Yanzhou. Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou, planned to send troops to fight against it. Bao Xin dissuaded: "at present, there are millions of bandits. The people are terrified and shocked, and the soldiers have no fighting spirit. They can't resist. I see that the bandits and their families are mixed up, and there are no supplies in them. They just make a living by plundering. Today's countermeasures are as follows: let the troops conserve their energy, first take firm measures, and the thieves can't fight, and they can't attack. When their momentum is low, they can defeat them by selecting elite soldiers. " Liu Dai didn't take Bao Xin's advice and insisted on going to war. As a result, he was defeated and killed.

When Mao criticized the romance of the Three Kingdoms, he simply deleted the murder of Liu Dai in Muping of Donglai, and then tied the affair of Liu Dai in peiguo to him, which became the affair of Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou. Li Guosi killed fan Hou, the second volume of the popular romance of the Three Kingdoms written by Jia Jing, wrote: "Qingzhou yellow scarf is up again, gathering millions of people and different leaders to kill Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai." Later, Mao's criticism of the romance of the Three Kingdoms deleted the story of Liu Dai's death in Yanzhou. In the first year of Chuping, Liu Dai crusaded against Dong Zhuo. When Liu Dai was the fourth town of the eighteen road princes, he called it "filial piety and benevolence, condescending to the scholars". Later, he borrowed grain from Qiaomao, but Qiaomao didn't. Liu Dai was angry and killed him. He collected all his troops. Later, Cao Cao took Yanzhou, Liu Dai descended to Cao, and Cao Cao used it as a partisan general.
