Why can Zhuge Liang borrow the east wind? Why can Zhuge Liang borrow the east wind?

1. In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang can borrow the east wind, because he is familiar with astronomy and geography, and he can predict the weather changes through some natural phenomena. Zhuge Liang has read a lot of poetry books since he was a child and knows how to arrange his troops. He has a wide range of knowledge, and books about physical geography and weather changes are certainly within his reading range. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang was portrayed as a demon. Battle of Red Cliffs, he set up an altar to pray for the east wind, but it's just a means to hide people's eyes and ears. He has long predicted that the east wind will blow this day, just to increase his mystery.

This is not the first time that Zhuge Liang has demonstrated his ability to be familiar with weather changes. If Zhou Yu wants to get rid of Zhuge Liang, it is impossible to make 100 thousand arrows in three days according to the conventional methods and routines, but Zhuge Liang is not an ordinary person. He has observed that within three days, there will be heavy fog on the sea, and he will take a boat full of grass people to Cao Cao's camp to provoke. He knows very well that Cao Cao is a suspicious man, and he won't send a boat to fight. He will only drive away the enemy with bows and arrows within the city walls. Zhuge Liang easily got 65438+ ten thousand arrows from the other side. This is the story of a straw boat borrowing an arrow, which also shows Zhuge Liang's ability to predict the weather.

In the face of hundreds of thousands of troops attacking Cao Cao, Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu have no chance of winning. But they all thought of the same plan, attacking with fire, which is the best chance for Sun Liu Alliance to win. Zhou Yu was willing to hit Huang Gai, who had to have an east wind to rush the boat full of gunpowder into Cao Cao's water army.

Before Huang Gai left, the northwest wind was still blowing on the sea, and Cao Cao relaxed his vigilance. However, Zhuge Liang had a good idea. The wind direction changed at this moment, and the fate of Cao Cao and Sun Liu's alliance was also decided at this moment. Zhuge Liang also set up an altar to escape. He knew that Zhou Yu would kill the donkey, and only in this way could he escape Zhou Yu's pursuit.
