He is one of the few survivors after the campaigns and returns to be reinstated as an imperial general in recognition of his contributions. One day after training his cavalry, Guan Sheng becomes drunk and falls off his horse. He becomes ill and dies not long later.

Famous quotes containing the word death:

    The One remains, the many change and pass;
    Heaven’s light forever shines, Earth’s shadows fly;
    Life, like a dome of many-coloured glass,
    Stains the white radiance of Eternity,
    Until Death tramples it to fragments.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)

    The death of Satan was a tragedy
    For the imagination.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    Death is not natural for a state as it is for a human being, for whom death is not only necessary, but frequently even desirable.
    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
