During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang, the chancellor of the Shu Han kingdom, led the Shu Han's elite troops on a northern expedition to conquer the Central Plains. Each Shu soldier was battle-hardened, well-equipped, and possessed formidable fighting ability. They conquered and cut through enemy lines, unstoppable as bamboo shoots. Wherever they went, Cao Wei's armies fled in terror. With this elite force, Zhuge Liang repeatedly defeated Cao Wei's armies, winning precious respite for the Shu Han dynasty. Sadly, his ultimate goal remained unachieved. This story highlights the importance of elite troops on the battlefield. A well-trained and well-equipped force can exert tremendous influence on the battle, turning the tide, and even deciding the outcome of a war.
