三国之见龙卸甲
Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon

《三国志之见龙卸甲》（日语：三国志，英语：Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon）是一部2008年上映的香港和韩国合拍的中国历史题材电影，由香港导演李仁港执导，刘德华领衔主演，洪金宝和李美琪主演。2008年4月3日上映。

Three Kingdoms: Resurrection of the Dragon is a 2008 Hong Kong action war drama film loosely based on parts of the 14th-century Chinese classical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms. It was directed by Daniel Lee with a reported budget of US$25 million. The film is a joint production between Hong Kong, the People's Republic of China, and South Korea.
The film publicity said that the film's script received inspiration from Chapter 92 of Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Patrick Frater of Variety said that the book is often cited as one of the four most important works in the corpus of Chinese literature. The book is also frequently read in South Korea. As the action takes place late in the Three Kingdoms story, the warrior Zhao Zilong, played by Andy Lau, is the lead character. The film was one of the two Three Kingdoms-related films being produced in 2007, with the other being John Woo's two-part 288-minute Red Cliff.

Plot
Zhao Zilong enlists in Liu Bei's army and befriends Luo Ping'an, a fellow soldier who is also from Changshan. He scores his first victory in a night raid on an enemy camp. Liu Bei and his army retreat to Phoenix Heights when they get overwhelmed by Cao Cao's forces. When Luo fails his mission to escort Liu Bei's family to safety, Zhang Fei tries to execute him but Zhao intervenes. Zhao then engages Zhang Fei and Guan Yu in a duel and remains undefeated after several rounds. Liu Bei is so impressed that he gives Zhao his armor and sends him to save his family. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei cover Zhao from enemy forces while he searches for survivors. After finding Liu Bei's son Liu Shan, Zhao straps the infant to his body as he fights his way through enemy lines and charges toward Cao Cao, who has been observing the battle on a cliff. Zhao seizes Cao Cao's sword and leaps to safety on the opposite cliff. Cao Cao's granddaughter, Cao Ying, witnesses the attack. Zhao later returns to Changshan as a hero and falls in love with a girl putting on a shadow puppet show dedicated to him. Zhao continues to fight for Liu Bei and earns himself the nickname "Invincible General" as he has never lost a battle before. After Liu Bei becomes emperor of Shu, he names Zhao one of his Five Tiger Generals alongside Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, and Huang Zhong. Following Liu Bei's death, Zhuge Liang persuades the new emperor, Liu Shan, to wage war against Wei. By then, a grey-haired Zhao is the only Tiger General still alive. He insists on going to battle and brings along Guan Xing, Zhang Bao, Luo Ping'an, and Deng Zhi. Zhuge Liang gives him two envelopes and tells him when to open them. Zhao and his army reach a fork in the road, where he opens the first envelope and follows the instructions. He splits his army into two groups: he leads one group while Guan Xing and Zhang Bao lead the other. Zhao later encounters the Wei general Han De and slays his four sons. However, he falls into a trap set by the Wei commander, Cao Ying, and retreats to Phoenix Heights. While he is surrounded on all sides and his army has sustained heavy casualties, he opens the second envelope and learns that his task is actually to distract the Wei army while Guan Xing and Zhang Bao proceed to capture enemy territory. After attempts by both sides to provoke each other into attacking, Zhao duels with Cao Ying and defeats her but lets her go. Zhao was injured in the duel but ordered his officers to hide it from his men to prevent them from being discouraged. When the Wei forces advance towards Phoenix Heights, Zhao allows his subordinates to lead all his troops into battle. The Shu army is almost completely wiped out when the Wei forces use gunpowder traps. Han De and Deng Zhi perish in battle. Zhao and Luo watch the battle and its aftermath from Phoenix Heights. In the end, Luo reveals that he was the one who betrayed Zhao to Cao Ying. Luo had been very jealous of Zhao all these years because Zhao kept rising up the ranks while Luo remained a foot soldier. The two men make peace with each other and Luo helps Zhao remove his armor and tearfully beats the war drum as Zhao makes his final charge toward the enemy.
