==History==
The '''''Liu''''' was a ''[[Merchant (JumpShip class)|Merchant]]''-class [[JumpShip]] operating as a merchant vessel. As of [[3058]] it was known for routinely carrying cargo [[DropShip]]s with food from [[Kaifeng]] to nearby systems.<ref name>''Binding Force'', p. 31</ref>

On 10 July 3058 the ''Liu'', since acquired by [[Warrior House Hiritsu]], came under attack in the [[Sakhalin (CC)|Sakhalin]] system and made an emergency jump to the Kaifeng zenith jump point without furling its [[jump sail]]. It arrived with visible battle damage and a shredded jump sail, and without its DropShips. However, this was actually a ruse. The attack had been staged, and the damage was only superficial. House Hiritsu used the alleged battle damage as a pretext to dock with the ''[[Olympus]]''-class recharge station ''[[Jodo Shinsa]]'' at the Kaifeng jump point and capture it, the first step in the [[Capellan Confederation]]'s conquest of the Kaifeng system.<ref>''Binding Force'', pp. 29-47</ref>
