There are many stories, such as the debate between Confucianism and Taoism, three visits to the thatched cottage, an empty city plan, seven captures of Meng Huo, a straw boat borrowing an arrow, plowing an acre of land, a dragon in the Middle-earth, an eight-array map, a wooden bull and a flowing horse, sleeves in the sleeve, weeping and beheading Ma Su, an orphan of Liu Bei, and all his efforts. Let's pick a few:
1. The debate of Confucianism
-
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Cao seized the emperor to make princes, and most of the more powerful warlords were wiped out by him. Only Liu Bei and Sun Quan have the possibility of development and expansion, and Cao Cao knows that it is still difficult to annex these two forces at once. So Cao Cao sent people to Soochow with letters, trying to join hands with Sun Quan to destroy Liu Bei.
Most of Sun Quan's advisers advocated Cao Cao's self-protection, and only Lu Su advocated Liu Kang Cao. However, Lu Su knew that it was difficult to convince Sun Quan and the civil servants in Soochow, and specially invited Zhuge Liang to be a lobbyist.
Lu Su introduced Zhuge Liang to a group of counselors in Wu Dong. These people are not ordinary people, but they are all learned people. Zhang Zhao, the first counselor of Wudong, first made a fuss, saying: I heard that Liu Bei visited your home three times before inviting you out of the mountain, thinking that having you would be like fishing in troubled waters and trying to seize the nine counties of Jingxiang as the base. But Jing Xiang has been got by Cao Cao. What do you think?
Zhuge Liang thought that if Zhang Zhao was not stumped first, there would be no way to convince Sun Quanlian and Liu Kangcao. Zhuge Liang said: Liu Bei took Jingxiang's territory easily, but he didn't want to seize the inheritance of the same clan. Cao Cao took advantage of it. Now we are stationed in Jiangxia, and there are other grand plans. How do idle people know this? In matters of state affairs and social security, people with real talents and practical knowledge should come up with good ideas. The speaker, sitting and talking, can't figure out a way when he meets something, but he can only be laughed at by the whole world. In a word, Mr. Zhang was speechless.
Later, a counselor asked: Cao Cao stationed millions of troops and will list thousands of people. You say you're not afraid, you brag. Zhuge Liang replied: Liu Bei retreated to Xiakou and waited for an opportunity, but the soldiers had enough food and grass, and the Yangtze River had natural dangers to defend, but it was your shame to persuade Sun Quan to surrender to Cao.
The counselors of Soochow challenged Zhuge Liang one by one, as many as seven, and Zhuge Liang refuted them.

5. Grass boat borrows arrows
-
Zhuge Liang's foresight and superhuman wisdom in promoting the establishment of the Sun-Liu alliance and the strategy of fighting made Zhou Yu jealous. In order to remove Zhuge Liang's threat to him, Zhou Yu set a trap to kill Zhuge Liang.
When Zhou Yu asked Zhuge Liang to make 65438+ ten thousand arrows in 10 days, Zhuge Liang unexpectedly said, "Cao Jun is coming today. Wait 10 days and you will miss the big event. " He said: It only takes three days to complete my life.
Zhuge Liang borrowed a boat and ranks from Lu Su, and prepared to sail as planned. Zhuge Liang did not move for two days in a row. Until four o'clock on the third night, he secretly invited Lu Su to board the ship, connected 20 ships with long ropes, and anchored at the Cao Jun camp on the north shore. By the fifth watch, the fleet was close to Cao Cao's water village. At this time, Zhuge Liang taught his soldiers to put the bow in the west and the stern in the east, horizontally in front of Cao. Then, he ordered the foot soldiers to drum and shout, deliberately creating a momentum of drum invasion.
When Cao Cao heard the news, he was really worried about the fog, and he was ambushed, so he refused to go to war easily. He drove 6,000 archers from the drought village to the river, and together with the archers of the water army, * * * about 1 0,000 people, shot indiscriminately at the river in an attempt to stop the "Sun Liu Lianjun" who beat drums and called for battle. For a time, the arrow was like a migratory locust, shooting at the straw handle and curtain on the boat in the middle of the river. After a while, Zhuge Liang calmly ordered the fleet to turn around, head east and tail west, get an arrow near the water village, and let the foot soldiers beat drums and shout. When the fog cleared at sunrise, all the stalks on the boat were densely covered with arrows. At this point, Zhuge Liang ordered the fleet to turn around and return. He also ordered all the foot soldiers to shout loudly: "Thank you, Prime Minister Cao, for the arrow!" " When Cao Cao learned the truth, Zhuge Liang's arrow team had left more than 20 miles, and Cao Jun could not catch up. Cao Cao regretted it.
After the fleet returned to camp, * * * got more than 65438+ ten thousand arrows, which lasted only three days. Lu Su witnessed it and called Zhuge Aliang a "man of God". Zhuge Liang told Lu Su that he was not only familiar with astronomy and geography, but also with strange Yin and Yang. He is better at the disposal and military posture in marching operations. Three days ago, he predicted that there would be heavy fog. He finally said, "My life depends on the sky. How can Duke Zhou hurt me! " When Zhou Yu learned all this, he was shocked and sighed.
