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 curtains, and more than 1000 straw handles should be arranged on both sides of the boat. However, this matter must not be known to your governor, otherwise it will not work. " Lu Su believed it 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. 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 6 thousand archers from the drought village to shoot arrows into the river, and the arrows rained down on the grass 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 wind was smooth, and it was too late for Cao Cao to chase. 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."
