Wei Wudi (Cao Cao) couldn't find water during the March, and the soldiers were very thirsty, so he ordered, "There is a piece of Meilin in front, bearing a lot of fruit.

Artistic feature

The writing subject of Romance of the Three Kingdoms obviously has no consciousness of distinguishing between history and literature, so the novel text does not present the concept of distinguishing between history and literature, and all story elements and discourse expressions of history and literature are chaotic and tangled. It is precisely because of the limitations of innate aesthetic concepts.

The novel has been smeared into a mixed text, which is neither in line with history nor with the general provisions of literature. On the other hand, the identity of history and literature is related in philosophical sense. They should and inevitably show the objective laws of history and its contingent structure. In other words, both history and literature inevitably imply historical rationality and dialectical logic.
