Övrig information
Taken from the later half of Chapter 65 of the “Romance of the Three Kingdom the scene depicts the surrender of Chengdu by Governor Liu Zhang. After the generals Ma Chao and his brother Ma Dai had surrendered to Liu Bei - courtesy name Xuande - they went to Yi Province to convince the governor, Liu Zhang, to also surrender. On hearing that his army had already been defeated Liu Zhang ordered the gates of the city be closed but mounted the north wall to face the two brothers. Here Ma Chao successfully persuaded Governor Liu Zhang to surrender the city and terrorities to Liu Bei rather than subject its people to further misery.
