Guan Yu led an army to besiege Fancheng guarded by Coss. Coss couldn't help but go out before Guan Yu's ninth challenge, and he was defeated. Later, Cao Cao sent Pound to fight Guan Yu, who was shot by his poisonous arrow in a battle with him. Fortunately, a famous doctor Hua Tuo passed by and cured Guan Yu. Then Guan Yu flooded Fancheng with water, and Pound was beheaded and imprisoned. Cao Cao summoned advisers to discuss countermeasures. An adviser (I forget who it was, it seems) suggested contacting Dongwu, so that Dongwu could attack Jingzhou, besiege Wei and save Zhao. Soochow sent Monroe and Lu Xun to attack. Lv Meng pretended to be dead and then occupied Jingzhou. Guan Yu got the news and went back to save Jingzhou. Unexpectedly, Jingzhou was occupied by Soochow and Guan Yu retreated to Maicheng. Later, he was captured by Dongwu, beheaded by Dongwu and given to Cao Cao, and Jingzhou fell. This is all because of Guan Yu's arrogance.

[Interpretation] According to legend, Wang Xizhi wrote on the board, and when the carpenter carved, he found that the handwriting penetrated into the board for three minutes. Describe that calligraphy is very powerful. Nowadays, the problem of metaphor analysis is very profound.

[Source] Zhang Tang Huai Guanshu broke Wang Xizhi: "Wang Xizhi's book is willing to be published, and the work is cut, and the pen is three points."

This idiom means that the brushwork goes deep into the board, describing the brushwork of calligraphy is very strong, and also indicating that the views and discussions are very profound and thorough. The idiom comes from Zhang Huaiguan's book Duane in the Tang Dynasty: "When he was in the Jin Dynasty, he offered sacrifices to the northern suburbs, and even wished for the edition, which was cut by the workers, and his writing style was incisive."

Wang Xizhi, born in Huiji (now Shaoxing, Zhejiang) in Jin Dynasty, is a famous calligrapher in China. His calligraphy skills are profound, and he draws on others' strengths, but he is unique. Generations have praised him as a "calligrapher" (calligraphy sage). So far, many of his original calligraphy and rubbings have been circulated in the world. Because he was a general of the right army, later generations called him Wang Youjun. Speaking of calligraphy, "body" is usually famous for its beauty but its brushwork is soft; However, a "vigorous body" is vigorous but often rough and hard. But Wang Xizhi's calligraphy is both beautiful and vigorous, which is the best in ancient and modern times. So many people who study calligraphy take his handwriting as a model. At present, his most famous books and posts are Preface to Lanting Collection and Huang Tingjing.

Although Wang Xizhi's handwriting is so good, it has something to do with his talent, but the most important thing is his hard work. In order to practice his handwriting well, whether he is resting or walking, he should think about the structure of the font, describe the structure, shelf and momentum of the word, and keep paddling on the skirt with his fingers. So after a long time, even my clothes were cut. He used to practice calligraphy by the pond, and every time he finished writing, he washed his pen and inkstone in the pond. After a long time, the water in the whole pond turned black. It can be seen that he has made great efforts in practicing calligraphy.

On another occasion, the emperor went to the northern suburbs to offer sacrifices, and asked Wang Xizhi to write his congratulatory message on a board, and then sent workers to carve it. The sculptor cut the board layer by layer and found that Wang Xizhi's calligraphy ink had been printed into the board. He cut into the depth of three points before reaching the bottom Woodworking marveled at Wang Xizhi's brushwork. His calligraphy skills were perfect and his brushwork was impressive! Although the legend itself is somewhat exaggerated, it is very appropriate to use it as a metaphor for good calligraphy skills and thorough analysis of problems!

Zhou Yu hit Huang Gai-the origin of one willing to hit another willing to get hurt.

This ingenious story begins in Chapter 46 of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, in which Huang Gai was resourceful and punished for borrowing an arrow, and ends in Chapter 49, in which Zhou Yu set fire to the Sanjiangkou at the Seven Star Altar.

After Zhuge Liang borrowed the arrow from the straw boat, he also put forward a battle plan to attack Cao Cao's flood and drought camp with Zhou Yu. At this moment, the brothers Cai He and Cai Zhong, Jingzhou generals who surrendered to Cao Cao, were sent to Zhou Yu's camp by Cao Cao and pretended to surrender. Zhou Yu, whose heart is like a mirror, played dumb again, playing along, and deliberately took two talents. One night, while Zhou Yu was meditating in the tent, Huang Gai sneaked into the tent to see him, and put forward a battle plan to burn Cao Jun. Zhou Yu told Huang Gai that he was going to use Cai Zhong and Cai He to cheat Cao Cao. And said: to let Cao Cao fall into the scam, someone has to suffer a little bit. Huang Gai immediately said: In order to repay Sun Shi Hou Si and Jiangdong's career, he was willing to be severely punished before surrendering to Cao Cao.

The next day, Zhou Yu called the generals into the account and ordered them to receive food and grass for three months and prepare for Cao separately. Huang Gai interrupted Zhou Yu's conversation and said first, "Don't say three months, even spending 30 months on food and grass won't help." If Cao can beat this month, that would be great; If you can't beat him within a month, you might as well surrender as Zhang Zibu thinks. "Zhou Yuwen flew into a rage after hearing this surrender argument that ruined his prestige, encouraged the ambitions of others and shaken the morale of the army. He ordered Huang Gai to be pushed out of the account and beheaded. Huang Gai does not show weakness. He's a veteran of Jiangdong, seniority, and doesn't even care about Zhou Yu. This made Zhou Yu even more angry, and he wanted to make a decision as soon as possible. The escalation and intensification of the contradiction between Zhou and Huang made the generals quietly uneasy. General Gan Ning pleaded for Huang Gai on the grounds that he was a veteran of Wu Dong and was beaten by a disorderly stick. When all the civil and military officials saw that the viceroy was burned to death and veteran Huang Gai died in front of him, they knelt down together and begged for mercy for Huang Gai. For everyone's sake, Zhou Yusong let go and changed his decision to retype the 100 spinal staff immediately. The civil servants still felt that the stick was too heavy and begged Zhou Yu to raise his hand. Zhou Yu refused to give in this time. He overturned the table, dismissed all the officials and ordered the staff to go. The soldiers who carried out the case overturned the yellow cover, stripped off their clothes and severely hit 50 crutches. When the officials saw it, they fought for exemption. Zhou Yu hated it and returned it to the account. Zhou Yu and Huang Gai's double spring insurance almost fooled all civil and military officials. Only one person knew that he didn't say anything and stood by. He is Zhuge Liang.

Huang Gai was badly beaten by these 50 sticks. He was raw and bloody, and fainted several times in a row. When other generals came to visit, Huang Gai kept silent and just sighed. There seem to be many skeletons in the closet. When his close friend Kan Ze came to see a doctor with suspicion, Huang Gai told the truth and asked Kan Ze, who is famous for his loyalty and courage, to sneak into Cao Ying and submit a fake surrender for him. Cao Cao, a wily man, was skeptical about Kan Ze and The False Surrender. But Kan Ze is by no means an idle person. He was courageous and eloquent, and finally persuaded Cao Cao. At this moment, Cai Zhong and Cai He, who had already infiltrated Zhou Yu's account, also sent someone to send Zhou Yu's anger stick and Huang Gai's tip-off. After Kan Ze left Cao Cao and went back, he brought a secret message to Cao Cao, further stipulating the code and logo of Huang Gai's contacts. During this period, Cai He and Cai Zhong also secretly delivered messages to Cao Cao from the south bank of the Yangtze River. All this was done seamlessly, which made Cao Cao firmly believe in Huang Gai's "surrender".

Cao Cao's navy is mostly composed of northerners, and it is not suitable for water life. Many people get seasick because of turbulence. In addition, although Zhou Yu and others have determined the battle plan of burning warships, Cao Cao's naval warships are all independent. If one ship catches fire, other ships can still leave quickly. In order to create more favorable conditions for the fire attack, Zhou Yu cleverly let Pang Tong sneak into Cao Ying, and proposed a "serial plan" to Cao Cao to tie the warships together. In this way, Cao Cao's warships, whether in groups of 30 or 50, were all connected with iron locks, and wooden boards were laid on the ships to let the foot soldiers and horses on the ground. The problem of seasickness has been solved, and not only the foot soldiers applauded it, but even Cao Cao, who has experienced many battles and is well versed in the art of war, thinks that he can do his best in the face of the ship array as stable as Mount Tai.

In the 13th year of Jian 'an (2008), on November 20th, Sun and Liu joined forces to prepare and arrange before the war. Zhuge Liang set up an altar to worship the wind for three days. It's nearly midnight at night, and sure enough, the southeast wind is getting stronger and stronger. Huang Gai also filled the prepared 20 big ships with reed dry wood, poured fish oil, sprinkled sulfur and mirabilite for ignition, and then covered them with green cloth and oilcloth. The bow of the boat was also nailed with big nails, and the contact sign "Qinglong Tooth Flag" was erected on the boat. Behind every big ship, there is a small boat tied with convenient movement. Huang Gai also sent a pawn to hold a book and agreed with Cao Cao to come down that night. Zhou Yu also arranged for ships to meet Huang Gai and the follow-up teams to attack.

Cao Cao in Jiangbei is waiting for news with the generals in Dazhai.
