Longzhong Plan: How Zhuge Liang turned Liu Bei from Zero to Emperor in 14 Years

Longzhong Plan: How Zhuge Liang turned Liu Bei from Zero to Emperor in 14 Years

Liu Bei was the distant uncle of the ailing Han Dynasty emperor. From a young age, his father passed away and Liu Bei had to live a despondent life with his mum. He had to resort to selling straw mats and shoes in the market to make a living.

Yet inside Liu Bei's heart, he has not forgotten his calling. As a descendant of the Liu family that founded the Han Dynasty (which lasted almost 400 years and brought China to its glory), he saw his country fall into the hands of thieves like Cao Cao, who controlled the Emperor and ill-treated the emperor. The entire nation is divided, with many feudal lords fighting. People are suffering.

The solution: Find a way to get rid of thieves like Cao Cao and re-unite China and bring peace to the country and save people's lives. That is his calling.

That was the year 207 when Liu Bei was Zero. In the year 221, Liu Bei was declared the Emperor of the Shu Han kingdom, with Chengdu as the capital. The Shu Kingdom occupies the western part of China, with the Wei Kingdom occupying the north and the Wu Kingdom taking the south-eastern part of China. The Shu Kingdom lasted 43 years, with 2 emperors, Liu Bei himself 2 years and his son Liu Shan 41 years.

How did Liu Bei turn himself from zero to emperor in just 14 years? Many people attributed the success of Liu Bei to his military strategist Zhuge Liang. Indeed Zhuge Liang is a genius and through his strategies, he helped Liu Bei build his Shu kingdom from scratch.

In this famous Longzhong Plan, Zhuge Liang laid out, step-by-step, how Liu Bei can conquer lands, take over Jingzhou and Yi provinces, and find the right alliances. With the secret strategy of Wei Wei Jiu Zhao, Liu Bei can take back land from the thief Prime Minister Cao Cao and restore the glory of the Han Empire.

The Secret Under the Mattress: Why would a 79-year Man Bet So Big on 4D?

It was 2007 when we discovered his secret. While moving my father’s mattress, we found them: heaps and heaps of Singapore Pools 4D tickets. They were stacked in layers, a paper trail of lost hopes. What shocked us most wasn’t just the volume, but the stakes. He wasn’t betting a few dollars for fun. He was punting hundreds of dollars per draw—nearly ten times a month. At the time, my siblings and I were furious. Our father was a 79-year-old retiree. We wondered, with a mix of anger and confusion, why a man at his stage of life would need to win such "big money." What was he going to do with the money? We saw it as a reckless habit, a sign of poor judgment in his final years.  Some of us would say, "If I were to give him money to buy 4D, why don't I use the money and buy 4D myself?  At least I have better discipline".  It has taken me two decades, and the experience of raising my own three grown-up children, to finally see the truth that was hidden under that matt...

Head Bleeding when the Chair Falls

The Weight of Silence: What Were We Really Arguing About? My earliest memories are punctuated by the sound of shouting. In 1970, when I was barely 6 years old, I stood as a small witness to the fierce quarrels between my father and my late eldest brother Kah Yang (he passed away in 1971 at the age of 17). As I grew up, these contradictions became the soundtrack of our lives, usually centered around our family's shoe shop and clothing stalls in Chinatown. In the court of family opinion, the verdict was almost always the same: my father was "wrong." He was judged as a man who didn't fulfill his role, who wasn't "burdening" enough for the family’s success. But as I look back from the vantage point of 2026, I have to ask: Was that actually true? Let me finally put to rest what my father did right: the truths that were buried under decades of criticism: Unseen Labor: He worked grueling, long hours. I remember him hauling boxes of goods and equipment to set u...
