Why did Cao Cao, known as a million lions, defeat Chibi?

A big reason is because of Cao Cao's pride. Before Battle of Red Cliffs, Cao Cao had pacified the north, and Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan were defeated by him. It can be said that Cao Cao occupied half of the country at this time, and Liu Biao in Jingzhou, which Cao Cao was most worried about, couldn't think that Liu Zhang, Lu and other figures turned out to be Sun Quan. At that time, Cao Cao was also inflated, thinking that his million heroes would win;

This can be seen from Cao Cao's time on the boat, when he set up wine and music on the river to celebrate the generals. When the wine was warm, Cao Cao stood at the bow and sang generously. So there was this poem-"A Short Song Line", which was passed down through the ages.

However, at this time, a man named Liu Fu was writing this poem by Cao Cao, and he said proudly, "Why did the Prime Minister say such unlucky things when the army was on an equal footing and the war was in turmoil?"

Cao Cao asked crossly, "What happened to my words?"

Fu said, "There are few stars on the moon, and blackbirds fly south; Three times around the tree, there are no branches to follow. This is unlucky. "

Cao Cao was furious and said, "How dare you hit me!" Liu Fu was stabbed to death with his fist, and everyone was frightened. Then go to the party.

It can be seen that Cao Cao's arrogance was originally with a little suggestion. Perhaps Cheng Yu, the counselor around him, knew that the battle was going to fail, but Cao Cao didn't listen to any harsh advice at this time, so why didn't these people let Cao Cao suffer a defeat? Only in this way can Cao Cao really know his own strength.
