These three countries control the weather.

It was a southeast wind that day. But Zhuge Liang didn't borrow it, it was just a coincidence. According to the research of historians, Puyin Chibi, located in the south bank of the Yangtze River and Hubei Province, is the most authoritative one. In Hubei province, it is not uncommon to blow southeast wind in winter.

On the other hand, even in the north, the northwest wind doesn't blow every day.

The wind is just a favorable situation for Liu Bei and Zhou Yu to win (Zhuge Liang was not in the front when the history books were uploaded to Battle of Red Cliffs). It is very important that Cao Cao's soldiers were not burned back. The main reason is the plague in Cao Jun, which led to the decline of combat effectiveness. The fire was just a thrill.

Chibi is in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River in East Asia. In winter, the land cools faster than the ocean, so cold high pressure, such as Siberian high pressure, often forms in Central Asia. In this way, the northwest wind should prevail in Chibi area at that time.

1. Due to the complex and changeable atmospheric movement, it is likely that a small depression will occasionally appear in the west of Chibi area. The low pressure in the northern hemisphere is a cyclone, and the airflow flows counterclockwise. In this way, the southeast wind just blows to Chibi in the east of the low pressure.

2. It is also possible that there is a small high pressure east of Chibi. The high pressure in the northern hemisphere is an anticyclone, and the airflow flows clockwise. In this way, the southeast wind just blows in the Chibi area in the west of the high pressure.

Therefore, the truth of "borrowing" Dongfeng is actually:

A small high pressure formed in the west of Chibi and gradually moved eastward. When this anticyclone passes through Chibi area, Chibi area is affected by it, which is foggy at night and sunny during the day. When the anticyclone moved to the east of Chibi area, the southeast wind prevailed in Chibi area under its action. Dongfeng also "borrowed".
