Introduction to Chang Banqiao: In the 13th year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty (208 years), Cao Cao pursued Liu Bei to Chang Banqiao. He saw Zhang Fei holding a snake spear, standing on the bridge, and shouted: "Zhang Yide from Yan is here. Who dares to fight to the death?" The sound was like a huge thunder, which caused the bridge to cut off the water. Cao Cao was so frightened that he spun his horse away. Xia Houjie was killed on the spot. All the generals also fled west together, and countless of them abandoned their guns and helmets. Today, thousands of years later, later generations re-erected a statue of General Zhang at the head of Changban Bridge, allowing visitors to observe the fierce and domineering spirit of this fierce general on the battlefield.
