Alot of us here in the fell in love with the 3 Kingdoms era through video games back in the 80s and 90s. This was a real treat.
Hearing Cao Cao pronounced correctly was a treat. My mates and I called him 'Kay Ko' or 'Chow Chow' as we had no idea how to truly say it.
I feel in love with the 3 kingdoms through video games, but not quite that old o video games.😂
Dynasty warriors series was one of my favorite gaming era. Especially for ps2
I'm glad to see fans of the Three kingdoms games here. It definitely does put a smile on my face.
It was the relatively recent Total War 3 Kingdoms game that did it for me! It took me by surprise too, I had no real knowledge of ancient Chinese history and I instantly fell in love with it
The end was a of garbage 🗑 next
Chinese history is like an ocean, so vast and deep.
Their language, too.
and the ccp is the plastic junk infesting and destroying such beauty, unfortunately
History is deep, but never forget that history is written by the winners and not the losers. A lot of the history is just stories and not reality.
There be truth in that
@@ahndeux alexander didnt conqured babylon cause history is written by winner
I’m an archaeologist and I never ever tire of being amazed by the past. Each excavation reveals something unexpected, but imagine excavating a site like this ❤️❤️. Mind blowingly awesome 🥰🥰
Fk cao cao. Killed lubu
No you're a mutant who is an avenger who happens to commit mutant genocide on occasion
How much information coming out of China is either Censored or just Propaganda ?
I would love to be an archaeologist it would be so awesome all that history 😢❤
The same-type of gold/silver-engraved mirror with dragon patterns(金銀錯嵌珠龍文鉄鏡) found from Cao Cao's tomb was also discovered in Kyushu, Japan. So far only one has been discovered in all of Japan. Because this mirror type was rare and precious even in China, some scholars suspect it was a gift from Wei dynasty to Himiko (卑弥呼) in early 3rd century.
always so amazing to realize how long ago someone like cao cao lived and how massive his impact was on history, finding a tomb like this is always awesome
Cao Cao was my usual pick playing the games.
He was usually the most powerful leader.
I am loving this series! Please bring us more from Agnes--she's such a great presenter!
Yup. I am beginning to like her as much as Bettany and Mary for Greece and Rome and Joan for Egypt. We need more passionate ladies like this bringing us history! It's as much fun as watching costume dramas!
She is!!! Calming presence
Asia has been one of the greatest pillars of civilisation in the world and will be on the future. Great culture captivates my mind and heart 🙂
So awesome to hear the names pronounced correctly.
The names are not pronounced correctly, they are pronounced according to Modern Chinese, which comes after Middle Chinese the language of Sui and Tang up to Song which comes after Old Chinese the language of the Han Dynasty...Old Chinese is not even a tonal language, Old Chinese words has more consonants and *no* tones.
The difference between Cao and Cao (his clan name: 曹 and his personal name: 操) was not in the tones but in additional consonants and was* more like: zluː sʰaːw, but no one really knows how Old Chinese was pronounced.
*: According to Zhengzhang Shangfang's reconstructions of Old Chinese.

I love to learn Chinese history, especially The Three Kingdom.
Immmm soooo glad Agnes is doing this searies. Im a Hungarian archeologyst and i spend a semester in my uni years in 2019 in China at PKU and i had the chance to see the rich history that this amazing country has. The three Kingdom area were so interesting and i hope we can learn more about Chinese history thru these videos and its get to bigger poularity
PKU is an amazing university. I visited it way back in 2010.
@@silveriver9 PKU=Peking University?
@@arbaz79 Yeah.
Man I was DEVASTATED when they said the tomb was robbed.
Honestly given how many times China has erupted in to absolute chaos I would be more surprised if it didn't get robbed. It's a shame, but honestly expected.
@@mercerholt8299True
I think Cao Cao is so similar to Julius Caesar as they are both at the same time the most glorified and vilified heros one in the east and one in the west
Chinggis Khan : hokd my beer
@@defjam137 He does not look like his cousins, Gog and Magog
@@defjam137 Good one! But I would compare Genghis Khan to Alexander the Great, both "Great conquerors": one from the east, one from the west.
@@mythicachan-heung617 doesn't hold much water as a comparison.
Yes !! More from Dr Hsu-Tang please, she is an amazing narrator who makes these series so excellent .
Reading The Story and of China, for the 2nd time.
Fascinating story.
I literally was just watching a clip of Cao Cao laughing as he joysfully runs away. There couldn't be a better time for this video to upload. Lol 💜
Bless Koei Tecmo for their games~!!
Best version of Cao Cao right there. I use that clip as a reaction gif all the time
@@SeanHiruki You're an absolute legend my friend! I've been watch the actual Three Kingdom show and I absolutely love it!
This is so cool! As many of us in the west, I first found these stories and characters playing Romance of the Three Kingdoms 2 on my SNES as a kid.
Dynasty Warriors games played a huge role in my interest on the three kingdoms

This has always been one of my favorite poems of Cao Cao. A brilliant yet controversial and brutal machiavellian warlord and statesman.
I really enjoy the storytelling aspect of Chinese history. They passed on their rich history through romanticized literature. Very fascinating
Cao cao name is very popular till this day they even use his name on a game call dynasty warriors and many movies too
@@masterk5372 all those games and movies are based on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms book. It’s an amazing book.
I have had a great interest in ancient China for at least 30 years or more. I find nearly everything about this amazing culture and people so fascinating. And there are still so many aspects we still don't fully understand. Even the most simple items can unlock secrets of the past. Still don't understand why I'm so intrigued by Chinese ancient history.
It’s heartbreaking that the tomb was robbed of all its historical items that could show and tell so much about the era.
Hello dear how are you doing today?
Sadly this happens a lot. It’s heart breaking but after seeing how many tombs get raided over the years and centuries the only way to stop this from what I’ve seen is to keep it under so much control you lie about it’s location or it doesn’t get discovered at all. It’s heart breaking but if it stops people from robbing tombs and graves I’d rather them remain undiscovered if you get what I mean
@V I see what you mean. We will never know about it
@@scarletmaye Stolen or blown up/ destroyed
I wonder how Genghis Kahn's tomb will look like if we ever find it since it's so secretive that only a few knew about his tomb's location
I'm pleased to finally know how to properly pronounce his name, thank you !
I enjoy Dr. Hsu's documentaries. She strikes the perfect balance between the scholarly \ informative and the entertaining.
Just finished watching the Cool History Bro video on the 3 Kingdoms this video came right on time. I'd recommend his channel for in depth history on China.
Thank you so much. That was very kind of you.
Nah. Cool history bro is nothing more than summaries of what's already out there.
Oversimplified has a very funny (yet informative) overview as well.
Finally I can access three kingdom history...thank you timeline...was eagerly waiting for this
If you read history books, even Romance of Three Kingdoms, he was not known to be an imposing figure. People keep associating being big as somehow being the same as being capable.
Just a stupid rebellious eunuch slave being controlled by Sima Yin
During my one visit to China, years ago, I also visited the tomb with the clay soldiers in Xian, after some soldiers, as a claimed first had been lent to a Danish Exhibition in a famous Art Museum, north of Copenhagen. I would like to come back, but as a now elderly man of 75 I doubt it will ever be?
That's tough. But you lived a good life.
China is now open to tourists again, if you're in good health to travel, then you're welcome to come back!
I really hope you can get another chance to visit. I know it can be done logistically as I took my grandmother in a wheelchair (also in her 70s) to many European cities, Dubai and Santorini (an island in Southern Greece). We're from Toronto, Canada. So it can be done, just lots of planning and patience.
Chinese history is so fascinating
Excellent documentary. So interesting.
Hello sherry
How’s your day going today?
I wish to learn more about the bricks chemistry, the mortars chemistry, as well as the stucco finish. I think these are important to today's needs.
You are not wrong that many of these techniques and materials could be well used in modern energy-efficient buildings. Generally, most of the materials are known and and to be replicated. The trouble is, new materials are much faster, both to produce and to work with and the skilled workers needed to work from raw, local base materials like clay, lime, stone and wood are simply not available.
Fun fact legend has it that Cao Cao funded his vast army by robbing tombs and was credited for professionalizing it for he created specialized armies just for robbing tombs so if this is indeed his tomb it would be ironic that it was ransacked by tomb robbers
Sima Yan laughs
Great video
Great Documentary 👍
O gigante chinês ...da sua trajectória que levou da sua grande e antiga cultura ...numa agitada história feita de guerras defensivas e conquistas!! E este documentário interessante retrata o império o que restou dele e as grandes obras fúnebres que personificam o extremo!! Gosto destas escavações profundas ...e as questões que se colocam aquando do encontro das provas que adensam os factos?!?!
So honoled and proud for this cao cao !
great video love it
My favorite time period of Ancient China and my favorite figure of that time, great video, my only concern is that the whole tomb including the damaged break-in points look a little to clean and seeing a military soldier poke his head out into view gives me get consternation on maybe not giving you and your crew full access to the entire tomb area.
Well, it is a national treasure site.
She may fantasize about the greatness of the three kingdoms, but the reality is there is a lot of bloodshed. People who never experienced true bloodshed will never understand the true terror of it. They have these romantic fantasies when the reality is a lot darker. History will always be different than what is portrayed in stories and literature.
History is written by the victors
@@TheSilmarillian The reality is that no matter what time in history, being in a battle is the worse situation. You're fighting for "land" that you will never own because someone would occupy it after you're dead. You're battling for wealth that you can't take with you when you die. You're fighting for glory that will not be remembered over time. The only value is to protect your own family so they may have other descendants so they may battle some more in the future. Its like gang members fighting over street corners and tagging the walls. None of them will ever own that corner or the land, so its all meaningless.
You are 100% right. I cant believe Russians are killing Ukrainians in 2023.
人口激減した悲惨な時代だったと思うよ！
It is possible that in an era of strife, a military minded man who believed in being Spartan in all things (writing, recycle, put refugees to use) would have a Spartan tomb, too--especially in comparison to the many wasteful nobles who preceded him. I bet the tomb raiders were all disappointed they didn't find a super rich tomb.
Well no, Cao Cao was also pretty scholarly. Its just he wasnt as extravagant. I heard he was praised as a good military leader so he probably wasnt as high on riches as other nobles. Like they probably wasnt that "interested" in extravagance
This is a very silly and unreasonable assumption.
Total War 3 Kingdoms made me fall in love with the beauty of China 🦄
Excellent work 💯👏
EXCELLENT!
cao cao is a legend his tomb just confirms it :))
No. He is not a legend. A true legend is Qin Shi Huang. No one dares to enter his tomb to this day even though they know where its located.
@@ahndeux because its literally radiating with mercury since he believed it would grant him immortality you will die from mercury poisoning if you try
@@ShangGang42 Back in the era when Qin Shi Huang was buried, people didn't fear mercury. It wouldn't have stopped grave robbers in the past from breaking in an desecrating the grave. There are ways to prevent direct exposure to mercury in contamination suits in the modern days. Nobody really knows for sure if the site is filled with a lot of mercury. There are some indirect evidence through soil samples, but nothing can be proven until the tomb is entered.
@@ShangGang42 The real reason why they haven't entered the tomb is because they fear it would put a curse and misfortune to those who entered. Not only that, the country fears it would curse them to fail also. Qin was also superstitious and feared the soldiers in the after life. He did not even place the terra cotta warriors near his grave. He placed them about 1.5km or 1 mile away. He only placed their stone armors next to the tomb in pit K9801 which is about 200 meters (220 yards) away from the mound.
@@ahndeux Pretty sure it has more to do with potentially causing a mercury poisoning outbreak if they open the tomb than a curse
China has a long, very interesting history. Future generations will look back on the present era as China's Dark Ages.
It's not a secret Cao Cao tried to convince Guan Yu to pledge loyalty to him.
Tried many times. Yunchang was just too loyal to his oath brother.
@@SeanHiruki Why did Cao Cao not help Liu Bei? Did he think this person was lying? Why did the Child Emperor recognize Liu Bei as being from the Han family?
@@user-cg2tw8pw7j Liu Bei had no claim to the throne since the actual emperor, Han Xiandi, was still alive. Liu Bei simply deemed the emperor to be under Cao Cao's control (which he was, but that doesn't change the fact that Cao Cao not only never tore down the Han empire, but was in fact the only thing that kept it standing), and thus Liu Bei deemed Han Xiandi the illegitimate ruler of the Han empire, unlike himself, of course.
@@frustis But this child emperor said that Liu Bei was from the imperial family
@@user-cg2tw8pw7j He didn't say that. Also, Liu Bei's lineage is highly contested. His relation to the main Liu line is distant at best.
very interesting subjects on this channel ty
'Interestin' in deed...
Drinking game idea.
Every time they say Cao Cao, drink.
Had a blast, great video :)
Cao Cao had 72 decoy tombs as well, and they all likely had the same tablet, with the same writing, so she could be in a decoy tomb. If she’s not & that is his real burial place that is absolutely insane! 💯
Funny how most Vietnamese know every word he (Cao Cao) said. At least the romanticized ones in the novel, which a lot of people still read at least once in their life
Really loving the host anybody agree with me she's pretty epic 😊
Bonk
she's married to a Chinese billionaire 😊
I personally found her narration really annoying and off-putting. I was looking forward to learning more about this man and his impact on the time period of the "three kingdoms" but I couldn't because she was so irritating. Maybe get a professional who knows what they are talking about next time.
fell in love with caocao after i watched the whole of the Three kingdoms drama, didnt even know he existed before haha
I love Chinese history and archeology. Long live China!
I'm watching Three Kingdom's series now and this video "just happened to" end up on my suggested videos.
Some pretty good story, I just wish they wouldn't do it like the History Channel over drama everything that said, and repeating everything 20 times
They smashed him up because there was so little of value inside when they finally got brave/ lost respect enough to go inside. - kinda be excellent if that was the thing. Anyway, good story. Cao Cao sounds interesting.
I just wish the legend of the three kingdoms was more widely known in the west games like dynasty warriors and others have helped with this but just knowing the fantasy is another level on par to King Arthur and the court of Camelot
This is vaguely based on historical events, the story of king Arthur is entirely fictional.
I read the romance of the three kingdoms and always wondered how Cao Cao’s name was pronounced pronounced. Thank you for clearing that up
Cao Cao dynamism and cunning makes him a very interesting figure to read, combining elements of a ruthless CEO and a battle hungry general. But best of all? His ultimate goal is not that bad either, to unite the land under one banner again and this time under able leadership. This is why he is always portrayed either as a dangerous (but interesting) villain who can always exploit the situation and challenge the protagonists, or a great gray anti-hero, a Byronic rebel reformer ready to to the utmost to accomplish his goals while ruthlessly burning the rotten elements down. He would have been the undisputed master of the post Han world if not for a realm of worthy heroes who opposed him.

Update
The Wei probably felt a lot more happy and safe after Zhuge Liang's death. He was the guy who keep terrorizing them with military campaigns that always ended in failures. This caused both sides to lost many lives. This includes fathers, uncles, and someone children won't be coming home.
The Shu probably felt happy upon Zhuge Liang's death until Jiang Wei pops up. "here we go again" moment to continues ZL's legacy of failures.
The best Liu Shan did for his people was surrender to Wei.
This put an ends to the never-ending Civil Wars.
I want to take a moment to analyze the stress normal citizens have to go through for each northern campaign and expedition.
It's a logistics nightmare. This included taxing the population to pay for military expenses such as conscription and general's monthly costs. The population has to ration their food, so the soldiers can eat. The bigger the army, the bigger the provision the civilians have to sacrifice. Reluctant families have to be convinced to let their sons join the army. They know what happened after the battle of Xiaoting. 100,000 went and only a few returned.
I don't want to make Zhuge Liang looks bad, so I won't mention the total number of deaths from all his Northern campaign failures.
That's what Putin is doing now.
You should look at the Serious Trivia Lore series, great videos about this period. His latest series is about these expeditions. But ultimately it sounds like the 1st campaign may have been their only chance and basically blew it at Jieting
Zhuge liang wanted to better prepare for the northern campaign when the conditions were right but the death of liubei and losing Jing province in the process changed everything with his old age and failing health he had to work with less than ideal conditions
@@joe718gt4 Aye. ZL picked a farking bookworm Ma Su for Jieting!
I wanna see how this goes.
Ziwu Valley plan
Wei Yan’s plan would’ve 110% worked because that was literally a special ops mission that he wanted to carry out. That’s insane how zhuge liang couldn’t see it.
-The Bmurphs
@@condorX2 No way. Wei Yan's plan was to take only 500 men to assault the city of Chang'an, and he stated plan hinged on the fact he believed Xiahou Mao would be so scared he would surrender. Does this sound like a feasible plan to you?
I first heard about Cao Cao (or Tsao Tsao, as it was spelled in my book) way back in 1st or 2nd grade, in my Reading textbook! He was the featured "king" in a retelling of a folktale, where he is given three seemingly identical statues of a monkey, but told that one is actually superior. He tasks one of his courtiers to find out which one it is, and the courtier eventually figures out that the internal structures of the statue are different. One has nothing but space between both ears, representing a person for whom words "go in one ear and out the other." Another has an opening in one ear, but the space redirects to the statue's open mouth, representing a person who blabs about things told them in confidence. The final, superior one has an opening in the ear that ends in the head, representing a person who hears your words, keeps them in mind, and doesn't spill your secrets.
Then thirty years later I find out that Cao Cao was a warlord who contributed to the collapse of the Han Dynasty XD XD XD
It seems that history vilifying Cao Cao or honoring him depends on who wrote the history. They say the writing of history belongs to the victor. Noting nothing is said about the role of Sima Yi. I've watched a lot of stories bout how Sima Yi was a brilliant strategist who served Cao Cao.
Sima Yi's grandson would usurp the throne from Cao Cao's descendants. However, the way it works in Chinese dynasties is that you can't completely destroy the previous dynasty. Instead, your legitimacy only comes from the previous dynasties' legitimacy. Therefore, the Sima clan's Jin Dynasty and their historians all praised Cao Cao and his descendants - after all, if his dynasty wasn't legitimate, then theirs wasn't either.
I can't wait to go back to China and see these and other historic sites👍
Welcome, Chinese people have built a massive museum on the tumb for king of Wei.

Documentaries
Cao Cao sounds little like Tsao Tsao (as pronounced by the narrator).
Tssao Tssao
Same guy😊
What I find fascinating about Ancient Chinese mythology & history is that archeology is always finding more evidence which proves how the folktales of China to be true. While we seem to be finding less evidence regarding such historical figures as Moses and Jesus. I also wish we spent more time translating the thousands of Sumerian tablets being stored in warehouses collecting dust. Along with the thousands of sino-Tibetan manuscripts being stored within temples across the Himalayans.
Wasn't it Cao Pei, Cao Cao's son who persuaded Liu Shan the last Han dynasty emperor to abdicate the throne to Cao Pei as the new emperor & started the new dynasty🤔
That was what I had read in Wikipedia & history books of ancient China.
Yes Pi took over after his father’s death. Cao Cao was given the posthumous title of King by Pi
Not really.
In 220 AD, Cao Pi embraced the title of Emperor, effectively ending the "real" Han dynasty. (The Cao family had previously claimed to rule and be in the service of the Han heirs, who were more like honored hostages or puppets; Cao Pi formally ended that pretense.)
Wu (Sun family) and Shu-Han (Liu family) continued to resist as independent kingdoms. Shu-Han tried to claim to be legitimate heirs to the Han dynasty, as Liu Bei claimed to trace his humble peasant ancestry ultimately back to members of the ruling Han, multiple generations ago. But I think most people had always considered those "legitimate claims" as very weak.
Anyway, Liu Shan of "Shu-Han" was not decisively defeated and removed from power until 263 AD, well after Cao Pi's rule.
22:15 This is a pretty bad error in this documentary...you sure you meant 207 AD?? Cao Cao was already the strongest military force, imperial chancellor and de facto leader of the entire northern part - he would definitely not have a "fledgling army" at that time.
I do like the production, visuals, and experts presented in this piece about this amazing archaeological find. But the narrative and presentation of historical facts is very, very limited and biased toward Cao Cao's favor. That's not to say I'm denying his accomplishments, but due diligence would have been completely sharing the context of Cao Cao's rise to power. It would make the documentary way to long though, and ultimately the focus is on the tomb itself, which I really enjoyed.
37:11 Oh my goodness...this is so historically wrong. Guan Yu was Liu Bei's top general throughout his entire career. While there was no Peach Garden Oath, historical records attest to the fact that their friendship was like that of brothers. When Liu Bei became King of Hanzhong in 219 AD, he promoted Guan Yu to General of the Vanguard, the top combat military officer. How is it that Cao Cao promoting Guan Yu was the only time Guan Yu held high military command??
Dynasty warriors haha I wanna see more about lu bu
Bless Koei Tecmo for their games~!!
he actually extended (not brought down) the Han dynasty for another 2 decades.
I love dynasty warriors and I couldnt wait to see something on the real life people
We, in America, hear so much negative about China, but it is thouroughly enjoying watching channels such as yours, to learn that the people of China are really no different than we are!
I would like to see more shows with our lovely host teaching us Tibetan history.
Dynasty warriors 4 is when i started and my fav is Dw5 on ps2 Machow will always be my fav character
8:25 that smile
What was the name of the historian doing this? I’d love to see mor of their research, if she publishs any?
The production and historiography about the tomb was excellent, but explaining the broader context of the Three Kingdoms period, she got lots of very important things wrong. Honestly disappointed because otherwise this would have been a pretty amazing documentary.
They had (how many) people 1800 yrs ago?😮
OK. Time to rewatch Oversimplified's video on the Three Kingdoms.
Hahaha, with Hitler’s dad in the background 🤣🤣🤣
I also recommend watching Three Kingdoms 2010
Ironic the grave robber Caocao gets grave robbed. Caocao is a High iq schemer that took advantage of opportunities and united those he defeated. Like a 5k year game of throne in china, he was smart not to sit on the throne but to control the throne.
My Favorite CHINESE General of Ancient Chinese History
Caocao's regime was unfied with each povinces in northern China. Sandong was really under Cao-cao contemporary. Their unification must be weak in the case of battles in Southern part.
The erasure of Wu's involvement on Guan Yu's defeat is sooooooo typical xD
Yes sir
The Three Kingdoms, Han, Qin, or Zhou Dynasty could match the Song Dynasty in weapons or technology? If Romans were ahead of their time, same can be said for some ancient Chinese crafters or blacksmiths as well?
The Song Dynasty had more advanced weapons in terms of gunpowder weapons and siege equipment. Three Kingdoms and Han had essentially the same equipment (iron weapons), which were definitely more advanced than the Han, Qin, and Zhou who had not yet unlocked all the secretes of iron working.
How do the grave robbers know where to find them?
Lots of people worked on the sites, and not everyone not too honest?
Just a guess.
You ever wonder how things like this end up underground ?
I started knowing 3 Kingdom bc of Dynasty Warriors 3 in 2004
Wish we had back to the future machine
Alot of people wants to see whats inside the first emperors tomb. Will it ever be open?
Dynasty Warriors ❤️
Is there a podcast version of this video with the Chinese historian parts voiced over? I listen on the go and often miss the subtitles, only getting only half the story.
ya hate reading i just skip it hoenstly'
The only interesting people were Zhogge liang and Zhou Yuo and Semaye in three kingdoms. But the These three men were another one separate three kingdoms. They defeated together but God was with Semaye.
Zhuge Liang; Zhou Yu; Sima Yi. There is a system for romanizing Chinese names, you know.
07:30 must of been a team of Mojin under orders from an Emperor!
He would rather betray his tomb, than have his tomb betray him!
Forget about the tomb, look at how glossy and straight her hair is😍
its still impressive even if its one of the decoy tombs, because its still from the year 220, and its still related to him, he had those decoy tombs built. the problem with archeological discoveries in china is the CCP controls all the information. They make history, science and archeology isn't a matter of public record, its controlled by the state.
It is a good and unusual episode. and it would have been even better without this garish background - music -.
Wonder if you can do a Hmong timeline from China?
Greatest legend or usurper? How many 'statesman' get Emperor like tombs and set up their family to eventually become emperor.
