During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Cao led an army to conquer Wu Dong, and Sun Quan and Liu Bei jointly fought against Cao Cao. There was a general named Zhou Yu under Sun Quan, who was clever and brave, but narrow-minded and jealous of Zhuge Liang's talent. Because the water war needs arrows, Zhou Yu asked Zhuge Liang to build 100 thousand arrows in ten days, but Zhuge Liang only needed three days, and he was willing to issue a military order, and he was willing to be punished if he failed to complete the task.

Zhou Yu thought it was impossible to build 100,000 arrows in three days, and he just took this opportunity to get rid of Zhuge Liang. So on the one hand, he told military craftsmen not to prepare all the materials for making arrows, and on the other hand, he told minister Lu Su to inquire about Zhuge Liang's reality.

Lu Su met Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang said, "Please help me with this. I hope you can lend me 20 boats, each with 30 sergeants. The boat should be covered with green cloth, and more than 1000 straw handles should be arranged on both sides of the boat. However, Zhou Yu must not know about this matter. "

Lu Su agreed and prepared everything according to Zhuge Liang's request. Two days passed, but nothing happened. On the third day, at four o'clock, Zhuge Liang secretly let Lu Su get on the boat with him, saying that he would go to get the arrow together. Lu Su wondered.

Zhuge Liang ordered the ropes on the ship to be connected and rushed to the other side. There was fog on the river that day, and there was no one on the other side. When the boat approached the water village in Cao Jun, Zhuge Liang ordered the boat to be set aside and let the soldiers beat drums and shout. Thinking that the other side was coming to attack, Cao Cao was afraid of being ambushed in the fog, so he sent six thousand archers to shoot arrows into the river, and the arrows rained down on the straw handle. After a while, Zhuge Liang ordered the ship to turn around and let the other side get an arrow.

When the sun comes out, the fog will disperse. Zhuge Liang ordered the ship to return quickly. At this time, the grass handles on both sides of the ship were densely covered with arrows, and each ship had at least five or six thousand, a total of hundreds of thousands. When Lu Su told Zhou Yu the story of borrowing an arrow, Zhou Yu sighed, "Zhuge Liang has a clever plan, but I am not as good as him."

2. Three visits to Caotang sān gúmáo lú:

The yellow turban insurrectionary uprising at the end of Han Dynasty caused great chaos in the world. Cao Cao sat in the imperial court, while Sun Quan supported Dongwu. Liu Bei, the imperial clan of the Han Dynasty, heard from Xu Shu (a famous digger in the Three Kingdoms period) and (a famous counselor in the Three Kingdoms period) that Zhuge Liang was well-read, so he came to Wolonggang in Longzhong (now Xiangyang County, Hubei Province) with gifts and invited Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountain to help him do things for the country. It happened that Zhuge Liang was out that day, so Liu Bei had to turn back in disappointment.

Soon, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei braved the snowstorm and invited them for the second time. Unexpectedly, Zhuge Liang went out for a walk again. Zhang Fei doesn't want to come again. Seeing that Zhuge Liang was not at home, he urged him to go back. Liu Bei had to leave a letter expressing his admiration for Zhuge Liang and asking him to come out of the mountain to help him save the country's crisis. After a while, Liu Bei was a vegetarian for three days and was ready to invite Zhuge Liang again.

Guan Yu said that Zhuge Liang may have a hollow reputation, but he may not have real talent and learning, so he doesn't have to go. Zhang Fei, on the other hand, advocated calling alone and tying the ground with a rope when he didn't come. Liu Bei scolded Zhang Fei and went to visit Zhuge Liang with them for the third time. At this time, Zhuge Liang was sleeping. Liu Bei dare not disturb him. He stood until Zhuge Liang woke up and sat down to talk to each other.

Zhuge Liang saw that Liu Bei was interested in doing things for the country and sincerely asked him for help, so he came out to help Liu Bei establish the Han Shu Dynasty. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms called Liu Bei's three personal invitations to Zhuge Liang "three visits to the cottage". In Zhuge Liang's famous "Model", there is also a saying that "the first emperor had no interest in his ministers, gave up on himself and took care of them in the grass." Sentence.

So when the world saw someone go to that person's home several times in a row and ask the person he admired to help him, he quoted this sentence to describe his desire and sincere mood. That is to say, I am not ashamed to ask questions, and I am open-minded to seek talents.

3, seven tackled seven vertical q and q í n qī qín qī zòng z ong:

In 225 AD, Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han, led his army south to consolidate the rear. Just as we were preparing to withdraw our troops, Meng Huo, the leader of the southern barbarians, gathered defeated skirmishers to attack the Shu army.

Zhuge Liang learned that Meng Huo was not only brave and strong-willed, but also loyal to others. He is very popular among Yi people, even many Han people worship him, so he decided to win him over.

Meng Huo is brave, but he is not good at fighting. The first time I went into battle, I saw the Shu soldiers retreating, thinking that the Shu soldiers were defeated by themselves and desperately chased them. As a result, they broke into an ambush and were captured. Meng Huo decided that he was going to be executed by Zhuge Liang, so he told himself to die like a hero and not to be ashamed. Unexpectedly, Zhuge Liang personally untied him and persuaded him to submit.

Meng Huo refused to accept the failure and refused arrogantly. Yan didn't force him, but accompanied him to see the military camp that had been arranged, and then specially asked him, "What do you think of the layout of this military camp?" Meng Huo looked at it carefully. He found that the barracks were full of old, weak and disabled soldiers, so he said bluntly, "I didn't know if you were real before. I won for you once." Now I have observed your barracks. In that case, it is not difficult to beat you! "

Zhuge Liang did not explain, but smiled and let Meng Huo go back. He knew that the jar would come to steal the camp tonight and immediately arranged an ambush. When Meng Huo returned home, he proudly told his servants that the Shu army was old, weak and beaten, and the layout of the barracks had been clearly seen. It's no big deal. If he robs the camp at midnight tonight, Zhuge Liang will be caught.

That evening, Meng Huo selected 500 swordsmen and quietly entered the camp of the Shu army. Nothing can stop them. Meng Huo was secretly happy and thought that success was imminent. Unexpectedly, the Shu army ambushed and Meng Huo was captured again. Meng Huo was captured one after another and never dared to act rashly again. He led all the troops back to the south bank of Shanghai, only defending and not attacking. When Shu soldiers arrived in Shanghai, they couldn't get through without a boat. The weather is very hot and there are many difficulties. "

Zhuge Liang ordered the construction of some rafts and bamboo rafts, while sending a small number of soldiers to pretend to cross the river, but when he reached the middle of the river, he immediately returned to the other side and then went to cross the river; On the one hand, he divided his troops into two ways, bypassing the narrow places in the upper and lower reaches and crossing the river to surround the uptown where Meng Huo was holed up. Later, Meng Huo was captured again. Although Meng Huo was captured for the third time, he was still unconvinced. Zhuge Liang still didn't kill him; Entertain him and send him back.

Some soldiers don't understand Zhuge Liang's practice and think that he is kind and generous to Meng Huo. Zhuge Liang explained to everyone: "If our army wants to completely pacify the south, we must reuse people like Meng Huo. If he can really contact southerners to work for the court, he can be worth 100 thousand troops. You work harder now, and you don't have to fight here anymore. "

After Meng Huo was captured and released this time, he made up his mind not to fight the Shu soldiers. But as time goes on. The camp ran out of food and sent someone to borrow food from Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang agreed, but asked Meng Huo to go out in person and fight with the generals of the Shu army. Meng Huo defeated several Shu generals in succession, but as soon as he got a lot of food, he tripped over the horse rope and was captured. Shu immediately gave the order to take the jar back and move the food away.

In this case, Meng Huo finally admired Zhuge Liang from his heart. In order to make all the tribes submit to Shu, he invited the tribal leaders to go with him. As a result, the Shu soldiers led them into an ambush and caught them all. Word came from the Shu camp that Meng Huo was going back, and many department leaders asked Meng Huo to be the main commander. What should we do?

Meng Huo said with tears: "I have never heard of that in the war, that is, seven vertical and seven arrests (that is, six releases and seven arrests). The Prime Minister has done his best for us, and I have no face to go back. "

During the Three Kingdoms period, Liu Bei occupied Shu and established Shu. After his death, his son Liu Chan succeeded to the throne, also known as Liu Adou. Liu Chan is incompetent. After the death of the sage, Shu was destroyed by Wei in 263 AD. After Liu Chan surrendered, Cao Mao of Wang Wei gave him the title of "An Le Gong" with no real power and moved him to Xuchang, Weijingdu.

After Cao Cao's death, the eldest son Cao Pi succeeded to the throne. Xelloss was afraid that his younger brothers would compete with him, so he took the lead and seized the relieving of his second brother Cao Zhang. And forced the fourth brother Cao Xiong to hang himself. At this time, the third Cao Zhi was left, and Cao Pi hated it. Therefore, Cao Zhi was ordered to walk seven steps above the main hall, and then improvise a poem on the topic of "brother", but the word "brother" cannot appear in the poem, which is enough, otherwise it will hurt the killer.

Without thinking about it, Cao Zhi blurted out immediately: "Boil beans and burn beans, and beans cry in the kettle. This is the same root, why rush to fry! " After hearing this, Cao Pi burst into tears, but he didn't do it. He just demoted Cao Zhi to Hou of Anxiang.
