Tenchi o Kurau II: Sekiheki no Tatakai (天地を喰らうⅡ 赤壁の戦い) is an arcade beat-'em-up game released in 1992 by Capcom. It was later ported to the Sega Saturn in 1996.

Tenchi wo Kurau II is the sequel to Tenchi wo Kurau, known as Dynasty Wars in English speaking territories. Had the Saturn version been released in English speaking territories, Tenchi wo Kurau II would have likely used the name Warriors of Fate, used in the arcade version of the game. Both games are based on the Tenchi wo Kurau manga series which ran for a brief period between 1983 and 1984.

Story

2200 years ago, China. The long-standing Han dynasty is crumbling, and many warlords are seizing the opportunity to claim power. The evil scheming ruler, Cao Cao, has continued to rise in authority. With it, and his massive army, he has manipulated the emperor to gain near total control. However, Liu Bei, a descendant of the Han family, vows to restore the empire to it's former glory.

When Cao Cao hears of Liu Bei's rebellion, he sends 100,000 troops and some of his best generals to quell it. Liu Bei, outmatched and outnumbered, seeks the service of the brilliant scholar, Zhuge Liang, to be his key advisor and tactician. Accompanying them are five great warriors of their own, and together they now have a chance to thwart the impending assault.
