Song translation They were boiling beans on a beanstalk fire; Came a plaintive voice from the pot, "O why, since we sprang from the selfsame root, Should you kill me with anger hot?" 曹植 《七步诗》 煮豆燃豆萁, 豆在釜中泣。 本是同根生, 相煎何太急? This poem comes from Cao Cao’s son Cao Zhi. Cao Zhi said that we are all family members, why should we kill each other.
Legend has it that Cao Pi was in a power struggle with Cao Zhi, and Cao Pi was going to kill Cao Zhi unless Cao Zhi is able to make a poem on the spot about their fraternal friendship without using the word "brother" so Cao Zhi composed this poem on the spot, which moved Cao Pi so much that he spared Cao Zhi.
@@jansenjunaedi4926 The poem has a standard structure, 4 sentences, each comprising 5 characters, no more or less than the other Chinese poems of the same type.
I think this is a perfect addition, a lot of people grew up learning of just the Three Kingdoms but never learnt or asked how it actually ended, people believed and were told it was unified by Jin, but only for about 30 years before it broke out again, the reason why it is attached to the "Three Kingdoms" era is because there is still all the history there and the fact it is a literal continuation of TK with the Sima family, not to mention the descendants of those who survived the original era. I am sure in future they'll release more playable factions in TK.
grap my hand. That is my idea,too. They usually only learn about 40 years of 184-234 because the novel. Most of them actually don't really care to read about the real Three Kingdoms period ( 220-280) and usually think it is boring. The real Three Kingdoms period ( 220-280) look like the mix of the novel and Game of Thrones. Three Kingdoms at war with each other, while every of them have the huge civil conflict,too. And that period just the opening scene of the long chaotic period ( 184-618). I really hope CA will made DLC until the end of it. ^^
If even western Jin is included in this game(and amazingly as the second content expansion), why not 270 years of chaos after that? why not the empire of Sui and Tang? Who will call this kind of timeline made up of several eras altogether the Three Kingdoms? sorry for my poor english
No one care of Sima clan all great heroes during Cao Cao generation gone so don't be surprised if a great part of people don't care of Jin compared to Wei Wu Shu, Jin got what they deserved for betraying Cao Wei
@@NapoleonAquila I agree that the Sima dynasty got what was coming to them BUT you missed the entire premise. Of course no one is going to care AS much BECAUSE the Three Kingdoms is the most glorified and taught period of Ancient China, people are going to have a vested interest in something if it is hyped up a lot more. Whilst I absolutely adore the Three Kingdoms era I love history as a whole as I'm sure so many others do so this is more history on the country. There weren't only heroes during Three Kingdoms, each period of Chinese history had their heroes and villains this merely laid the groundwork for the most part. One common theme was despite them "worshipping heaven" or following "the will of heaven" most of the people involved at some point tried to fight "the will" and it came back against them because the will of man tried to surpass it, same as Sima Yi, he thought he had it all planned out betraying Cao Wei from the very beginning and this was basically his eventual family Karma.
the song is called Quantrain of Seven Steps and is based on a poem written allegedly by Cao Zhi (Cao Cao's son) on siblings harming each other. It fits in perfectly with the context of the 8 princes. The lyrics: 煮豆燃豆萁 Beanstalks are burnt to boil beans 漉菽以为汁 Pulses are extracted for its juice 萁在釜下燃 Under the pot, the beanstalk burns 豆在釜中泣 The beans weep in the pot: 本是同根生 We are born of the same root, 相煎何太急 Why are you tormenting me by such means?
Random factoid: the song is a musical version of an ancient poem written impromptu by Cao Zhi, one of the younger sons of Cao Cao. The story is that he was a noted poet-philosopher, and his brother was very jealous of him. Eventually, suspecting Cao Zhi of treason, his older brother captured him with the intention of killing him. As a way of humiliating him, he was told to compose a poem in the time it took to walk seven steps. If he failed, he would be put to death. On the spot, Cao Zhi composed the Quatrain of Seven Steps, which loosely translates to something like: "One burns the beanstalk to boil the beans. Below the pot, the beanstalk burns furiously. Within the pot, the beans weep: 'we are born of the same root. Why do you burn yourself so eagerly to kill me'?" Bad translation, but you get the point -- it's an allegory of the brothers, one so eager to kill the other that he would destroy himself to do so. As legend has it, Cao Zhi's elder brother was swayed by the poem and spared him.
Finally, there is a game talking about this story. War of Eight Princes (八王之乱)is one of the darkest age in Chinese historical timeline. It was the beginning of 300+ years of chaos and division, the Fallen of the central Empire and Rise of Barbarians. It is pretty rare to see this period is mentioned in any Chinese movies, TV series or games, only covered in books.
@Slayer Ap Another problem is, the CPC do not want to emphasize the history of conflict between those ethnic groups (so-called "barbarians"), especially the descendants of these ethnic groups are domestic minorities in China now. To the Government, the topic of WoEP is politically incorrect.
@Death Horseman dont think that law is still in effect after Qin, even if it's still a thing, with so many wars going on, it's more likely you get raided or dragged into army.
@@tanishsabavat2899 I believe there's a story about one of the Sima Princes that during a march they ran out of food and ate 1000 slaves. I guess when you lived in a country where famine was a common occurance due to natural disasters and/or locusts cannibalism wasn't that frowned upon. Hell there's even a story about during Liu Bei's wanderings someone wanted to entertain him, but had no meat...so he killed his wife.
The darkness just begins. After Eight Princes follows directly the 5 Barbarian Invasion. In this period the "Winter" is coming just like the game of throne. The average temperature in north is too cold thus all northern barbarian tribes can not survive and begin moving to China. This Period is call 5 Barbarian Invasion. In this "Winter" period, the agriculture production reduced heavily so no one can have enough food supplies, both for Chinese and the Barbarian tribes. As a result, the Barbarian tribes begin to eat human body and so does some Chinese in north. The Jin Dynasty chilled in south and can do nothing to stop the tragedy. At last the Barbarian build new authority government in north and begins the North-South Dynasty period.
I pity Wen Yang. Hero of Three Kingdoms End Era and Last Great Warrior of that Era yet was tricked and murdered by the jealous Princes who despise him as Sima Shi died fighting Wen Yang.
Da Sauce hadn’t it been her wanting to put the developmentally challenged man as emperor in and her scheming, all of it could be avoided, she also favoured someone who favoured Lun. The war of 8 princes was sown the second she started the coup against the Yang family and Sima Liang.

Don't forget one of the nomadic warlords was named Liu and was a vestige of the Han royal family who like Dany brought an invasion force to restore their family dynasty.
Best fighting will be between Sima Jiong, Sima Ying, and Sima Yong against Sima Lun. I only really feel bad for Sima Ai. Betrayed by Sima Yue, and the only one to try to fix the chaos that was going on.
I also feel kinda bad for Sima Ying, the poor fellow kept being played like a fiddle without ever knowing he was working for the bad guys. The one wearing green was also a relatively benevolent fellow from what I remember (forgot his name)
The lady in the end name is Jia Nan Feng, one of the most evil queen in Chinese history, a selfish, ruthless woman with genius political savvy(and died very quickly), she was the one who upset the balance and made princes fight each other.
This time period chinese history has been written by confucianist historians who were a bunch of misogynists. Any woman that held power during the imperial era of china has been treated by historians as a ruthless and evil leader.
@@bernatagell941 look at most female leaders of today and how they are destroying their own country. Do you seriously think China were demonizing them? Do you seriously think Matriarchy has not ever been established within the last 5000 years? Patriarchy will always reign supreme
Dude , the blue is like the purest among the 8 prince base on face. The red is like always angry , the yellow is arrogant , black is scheming ( base on hand attitude ) , the purple is like patience and carefull ( due to the scene he was very far from the rest and the first one who move when the door open ) , the youth green is like annoying friend , and the green Old is always think that there are no harm coming for him. Dude me too get angry when somenone lean on me , but well don't go too far to burn the city entirely 😂
Summary: " The Empire long divided, must united". However, They still don't want unite just with Three Kingdoms period. We still have more 300 years until the 2nd Three Kingdoms period ( Northern Qi - Northern Zhou - Southern Chen; Chinese actually don't call it "2nd Three Kingdoms period". ). And it will be united under Tang dynasty, finally. * Cao Zhi: I think Cao Pi and his followers dislike this trailer.
@@kokodoko8036 I skip Sui dynasty just because want to summary this period in the shortest way, so everyone can imagine what were happened. This period really confuse and very difficult to read. In the reality, the 2nd Three Kingdom period ( just the way I call this period): - Southern Liang - > Southern Chen. - Eastern Wei - > Northern Qi. - Western Wei - > Northern Zhou - > Sui ( united) - > Tang ( the real united and peace).
@@NapoleonAquila I know, and so what? Of course, Cao Pi like this clip because it show how his betrayer ( Sima clan) finally ruined their dynasty. However, the background song use the famous poem of Cao Zhi... People know what I'm meaning, right?
This rebellion eventually led to Northern Wei, ruled by Tuoba/Xianbei people, as Jin was forced to retreat south. Mulan was from Northern Wei, so she was actually a Turk/Mongolian.
The Brothers (better known as Quatrain of Seven Steps) They were boiling beans on a beanstalk fire; Came a plaintive voice from the pot, "O why, since we sprang from the selfsame root, Should you kill me with anger hot?" Translated By H.A. Giles
lyrics: 1:25 萁在釜下燃,豆在釜中泣。(repeat) The beanstalks were burnt under the cauldron, and the beans in the cauldron wailed: 1:48 本是同根生,相煎何太急? We were originally grown from the same root; Why should we hound each other to death with such impatience?
The track is based on a poem by a son of Cao Cao when he was about to be killed by his brother, his brother demand him to create a poem with each step equal 1 sentence. He walks 7 steps and create the famous poem that Chinese uses to refer to the tragedy of brother turned against each other. That is what happened in this trailer, 8 princes, 8 sons of Sima Yi fought for domination over the land... no one wins...
The eight princes of Jin Dynasty, the next period of Age of Three Kingdom. The eight princes who are all the descendants of Sima Yi, fought each other that made the United China collape again.
@@mrtuanhandsome13 oh so this is about Jin dynasty? But they are missing everything in-between :( This should be last. Sima yi always disliked him :( Cao pi should've lived way longer :c
This might seem odd but I am excited if we could replace some models in the original game with these characters. Like Lu Xun, Cao Ren Wei Yan and many others
Hopefully they expand the map to incorporate Korea and Japan. Korea was fractured into three kingdoms as well; Gorgoryeo, Baekje, Silla. Japan was unified and so was China. Would be insane to bring elements from Shogun 2 and merge with Three Kingdoms.
xlilvieTking As far as I've read, we don't know much about Japan during this period. I believe Cao Wei sent an expedition to the east and found an "island ruled by the witch-queen Pemiko (Himeko)" and that's basically it. I don't know about Korea though.
Sadly that was NEVER going to happen. Unfortunately Asian countries in that reason have ZERO chill and the Norks would go berserk at a depiction of a part of history they don't like. Is it logical? No, unfortunately people rarely are. Btw what I mean is that they would go apeshit and say "KOREA WAS NEVER PART OF CHINA AND WAS NEVER CONQUERED." Seems like in much, if not most of the world historical grudges are as potent as they were centuries ago. Makes you wonder why Europe is different in that regard.

In the end, the real winner was Liu Cong the Xiongnu. The Simas dragged the country into its grave and allowed the Xiongnu state of Han Zhao to ravage the north
Check out Incident at the Gaoping Tombs in Wikipedia It'll explain how Sima family came on top of Cao Wei family and at last unify China. From this incident till the end of the West Jing dynasty was roughly 68 years.
There wasn’t a true winner during this era, not even FuJian, the grand king of Dí ethnic who once united Northern China, but only lasts for a single generation
the jin dynasty married of so much princes to nomadic tribes, that they began to claim china's throne, i.e. the later jin, the liao dynasty rose to prominince.
After Cao Cao dead, sima yi exposed his ambition and control Wei group before he dead. sima yi's sons end the war, bulid Jin dynasty,make china whole again. however, after 35 years, his grandson--sima yan(the emperor of Jin) dead. New emperor' wife--the queen(Jia nan feng, historically brutal queen )Make the country confusion and cause The war of 8 Princes. (sima liang, sima wei, sima luen, sima jiong , sima Yi , sima yin , sima yue , sima yong) This war cause 5 barbarians imvade china's Core Area. The age of Dark and sanguinary(north VS south dynasties and 16 Countries) starts...... After 170 years, China whole again.

To be fair the base game was already a huge undertaking so can't really blame them for wanting to break the game up into chapters with additional content.

This time period chinese history has been written by confucianist historians who were a bunch of misogynists. Any woman that held power during the imperial era of china has been treated by historians as a ruthless and evil leader.

@@bernatagell941 look at most female leaders of today and how they are destroying their own country. Do you seriously think China were demonizing them? Do you seriously think Matriarchy has not ever been established within the last 5000 years? Patriarchy will always reign supreme
Dude , the blue is like the purest among the 8 prince base on face. The red is like always angry , the yellow is arrogant , black is scheming ( base on hand attitude ) , the purple is like patience and carefull ( due to the scene he was very far from the rest and the first one who move when the door open ) , the youth green is like annoying friend , and the green Old is always think that there are no harm coming for him.
Dude me too get angry when somenone lean on me , but well don't go too far to burn the city entirely 😂
Fr Blue is like the brother just lookin out for his sibling while they always get into some shit😂
Summary: " The Empire long divided, must united".
However, They still don't want unite just with Three Kingdoms period. We still have more 300 years until the 2nd Three Kingdoms period ( Northern Qi - Northern Zhou - Southern Chen; Chinese actually don't call it "2nd Three Kingdoms period".
).
And it will be united under Tang dynasty, finally.
* Cao Zhi: I think Cao Pi and his followers dislike this trailer.
What about Sui
@@kokodoko8036
I skip Sui dynasty just because want to summary this period in the shortest way, so everyone can imagine what were happened. This period really confuse and very difficult to read.
In the reality, the 2nd Three Kingdom period ( just the way I call this period):
- Southern Liang - > Southern Chen.
- Eastern Wei - > Northern Qi.
- Western Wei - > Northern Zhou - > Sui ( united) - > Tang ( the real united and peace).
Dude Sima Yi was a follower of Cao Pi
@@NapoleonAquila I know, and so what?
Of course, Cao Pi like this clip because it show how his betrayer ( Sima clan) finally ruined their dynasty.
However, the background song use the famous poem of Cao Zhi...
People know what I'm meaning, right?
后三国--的确,我们中国人确实不这么称呼这段历史,它只是南北朝的一部分。
Ironically, Cao Zhi's poem predicted the fate of the Sima clan.
This rebellion eventually led to Northern Wei, ruled by Tuoba/Xianbei people, as Jin was forced to retreat south. Mulan was from Northern Wei, so she was actually a Turk/Mongolian.
Koei Tecmo really need to make a new Dynasty Warriors game set in this period.
Game of thrones but everybody ‘s name starts with Sima
The Brothers (better known as Quatrain of Seven Steps)
They were boiling beans on a beanstalk fire;
Came a plaintive voice from the pot,
"O why, since we sprang from the selfsame root,
Should you kill me with anger hot?"
Translated By H.A. Giles
lyrics:
1:25
萁在釜下燃,豆在釜中泣。(repeat)
The beanstalks were burnt under the cauldron,
and the beans in the cauldron wailed:
1:48
本是同根生,相煎何太急?
We were originally grown from the same root;
Why should we hound each other to death with such impatience?
I don't know whom these people are
But I sure loved the song
Anyone know the track that was used?
The track is based on a poem by a son of Cao Cao when he was about to be killed by his brother, his brother demand him to create a poem with each step equal 1 sentence. He walks 7 steps and create the famous poem that Chinese uses to refer to the tragedy of brother turned against each other. That is what happened in this trailer, 8 princes, 8 sons of Sima Yi fought for domination over the land... no one wins...
The eight princes of Jin Dynasty, the next period of Age of Three Kingdom. The eight princes who are all the descendants of Sima Yi, fought each other that made the United China collape again.
@@mrtuanhandsome13 oh so this is about Jin dynasty?

This might seem odd but I am excited if we could replace some models in the original game with these characters. Like Lu Xun, Cao Ren Wei Yan and many others
Hopefully they expand the map to incorporate Korea and Japan. Korea was fractured into three kingdoms as well; Gorgoryeo, Baekje, Silla. Japan was unified and so was China. Would be insane to bring elements from Shogun 2 and merge with Three Kingdoms.
xlilvieTking As far as I've read, we don't know much about Japan during this period. I believe Cao Wei sent an expedition to the east and found an "island ruled by the witch-queen Pemiko (Himeko)" and that's basically it. I don't know about Korea though.

Sadly that was NEVER going to happen. Unfortunately Asian countries in that reason have ZERO chill and the Norks would go berserk at a depiction of a part of history they don't like. Is it logical? No, unfortunately people rarely are. Btw what I mean is that they would go apeshit and say "KOREA WAS NEVER PART OF CHINA AND WAS NEVER CONQUERED."
Seems like in much, if not most of the world historical grudges are as potent as they were centuries ago. Makes you wonder why Europe is different in that regard.
Would've been cool if they added mulan somewhere along the line since her story took place during this period of history
作为一个中国人,我和其他同胞一样,对晋朝这段历史不太了解,一直以来,人们似乎在可以淡化“两晋南北朝”。
CA新出的这个DLC让我十分开心,因为他们的研发人员洞悉了这个乱世的精髓,排除“可玩性”,它是对三国历史完美的继承。很多人在攻击“八王之乱”似乎已经跟三国没关系了,其实不然,不要忘了,晋朝的实际开创者是出仕曹魏的司马懿,八王之乱时,一些三国时代的人其实还在人世。
当然,我希望后续的DLC能出现更多游牧民族势力,需要注意的是,“八王之乱”后的“五胡乱华”,跟同时期破坏罗马帝国的蛮族入侵简直如出一辙!西方有法兰克帝国和东罗马,而中国有北魏和南朝!
相信我,如果操作得当,中国玩家完全有能力让《全面战争:三国》成为CA的一个伟大转折。
當時我就覺得阿提拉那種各族在羅馬疆土上游牧流竄的局勢其實與晉書上面記載胡漢雜居的情形根本一模一樣(例如長安城外有胡人的巨大聚落,他們進不了城就在城外搭了個帳棚城)

Next DLC's should be called "Invasions of the five Barbarians", "Fall of Jin", "Dynasties at war" and "Sui".
Maybe the Five Barbarians will be part of this package. After all it was pretty much in the same time length.
The music is so good, especially when one of the Princes watches as the fire comes for him. It's very tragic.
Hope they make Qin unification TW next. Three kingdom is great, but i (and many others) also interested in Qin conquest of China unification.

the history of china is so utterly complicated that it makes the politics of europe look like a third graders math test
Because a change in dynasty is not done in an orderly manner.
In the end, the real winner was Liu Cong the Xiongnu. The Simas dragged the country into its grave and allowed the Xiongnu state of Han Zhao to ravage the north
@stevie yanuza Wikipedia
Check out
Incident at the Gaoping Tombs
in Wikipedia
It'll explain how Sima family came on top of Cao Wei family and at last unify China.
From this incident till the end of the West Jing dynasty was roughly 68 years.
There wasn’t a true winner during this era, not even FuJian, the grand king of Dí ethnic who once united Northern China, but only lasts for a single generation
Don't forget the Liu Song dynasty which finished off the Jin for good.
I need that song ❤️
Answer to the question a good leader is trusted by the people. Weather they are a tyrant or a great philosopher king.

Pre ordered! Expecting some good stuff in here although i think it's tad early to release a DLC set in another timeline.
This is set only 30 years later
if I can pick empress Jia nanfeng,I can unify china without army,but this game is total war....
the jin dynasty married of so much princes to nomadic tribes, that they began to claim china's throne, i.e. the later jin, the liao dynasty rose to prominince.
The sima throne thought family would be loyal to each other unlike the warlords of the three kingdoms era...
i fucking love the soundtrack on this trailer. i really would love to know the name of it or where i can find it
The music is a masterpice
Fucking love the sound of warhounds during the cavalry charge
guys, who can give me the song name and download link , this song is very nice,i love it.
When will they add shin or Ouki in the game
Hahaha, same bro.
Will the series follow Chaos of Eight Princes with Rampage of Five Barbarian Tribes?
Number 1 in top ten dysfunctional families.
Cao Cao must be turning in his grave when all his hard work for a united China is all in vain
Not cao cao, but sima yi.
Jansen Junaedi Before Sima Yi had power, it was Cao Cao and his family. But yes, it’s most likely Sima Yi than Cao Cao
Its Sima Yan's fault for putting too many people of his clan into high offices and choosing a mentally handicapped heir to succeed him.
I wish there are more timeline to choose when begin the campaign
Total War is one of the few games that I consider when I think about getting a laptop or computer for gaming.

I don't understand.This is I believe as good as in-engine climatic trailer can go.There really just ain't any big splashes I have excepted.
Sima this word itself in Chinese means the guy who controls army.
They made the Jin princes have Han Chinese features while they gave the Chinese people northern nomadic features.
so what is the story behind all this ?
i know about sima yi from dynasty warriors and he was a traction for cac cao
but that`s all i know
After Cao Cao dead, sima yi exposed his ambition and control Wei group before he dead.
sima yi's sons end the war, bulid Jin dynasty,make china whole again.
however, after 35 years, his grandson--sima yan(the emperor of Jin) dead.
New emperor' wife--the queen(Jia nan feng, historically brutal queen )Make the country confusion and cause The war of 8 Princes.
(sima liang, sima wei, sima luen, sima jiong , sima Yi , sima yin , sima yue , sima yong)
This war cause 5 barbarians imvade china's Core Area.
The age of Dark and sanguinary(north VS south dynasties and 16 Countries) starts......
After 170 years, China whole again.
@@张帆-o2e thx m8 for info i really love asia`s history alot

The darkness just begins.
After Eight Princes follows directly the 5 Barbarian Invasion. In this period the "Winter" is coming just like the game of throne. The average temperature in north is too cold thus all northern barbarian tribes can not survive and begin moving to China. This Period is call 5 Barbarian Invasion.
In this "Winter" period, the agriculture production reduced heavily so no one can have enough food supplies, both for Chinese and the Barbarian tribes. As a result, the Barbarian tribes begin to eat human body and so does some Chinese in north. The Jin Dynasty chilled in south and can do nothing to stop the tragedy. At last the Barbarian build new authority government in north and begins the North-South Dynasty period.
Wish base game came with at least three or two chapters of three kingdoms
Feels empty :(
To be fair the base game was already a huge undertaking so can't really blame them for wanting to break the game up into chapters with additional content.
Power ranger assemble.
