During the Three Kingdoms period, Eastern Wu Youxi threw the cup as a trumpet, when the shu state was united against Cao, Zhou Yu invited Liu Bei to a banquet, and wanted to kill him during the banquet, but when he saw the person standing behind Liu Bei, the cup he had just raised slowly put down, secretly pinched a cold sweat, and thought: If it were not for the cup to be retracted freely, I would have died.
Saying that Zhou Yudu wanted to kill Liu Bei, he thought to himself, "Liu Bei is a tyrant in the world, he is not under Cao Cao, I should get rid of him first!" This can also be regarded as a major problem in the future of my Jiangdong. ＂
So he used the excuse of luring Liu Bei to Sanjiangkou to drink and discuss the matter of breaking Cao, and first ambushed fifty people on both sides of the big tent, and issued a secret order: "You wait to see me throw the cup as a trumpet, and when you hear my cup falling like this, you jump out and start to kill Liu Bei for me!" ＂
Everything was ready to stop, and the soldiers under him came to report: "Liu Yuzhou has arrived." ＂
Zhou Yu hurriedly asked, "How many people and horses did he bring?" ＂
"Governor Yudu, that is, a boat, more than twenty military academies." ＂
Zhou Yu heard this and smiled, and thought to himself, "Aha, Liu Xuande, you are a moth to the fire, and you have come to die." ＂
"Oh! Say I'm out of the door! Zhou Yu passed out the order. He hurried up, walked out of the big tent, looked at the people who had been arranged, and then took Lu Zijing to greet him in his entire clothes.
When Zhou Dudu saw xuande being very polite, he smiled and hurriedly gave his hand: "My grandfather has long admired the great name of Yuzhou, and today I can meet at the mouth of the three rivers, it is really my creation." Yuzhou is on top, and I have courtesy. ＂
Xuan De did not expect Zhou Yu to be so polite, and hurriedly returned the salute: "How dare you, how dare you!" What kind of ability Xuande has, there is Lau du to supervise you to take you out of the gate. ＂
Zhou Yu arched his hand when he heard this, and said, "This is not where the speech is, you follow me to the account, please!" ＂
With that, Zhou Gongjin led the way in front and let Xuan De go to the big tent: "Yuzhou, you hurry up and invite you to the seat!" And he immediately ordered the feast to be set down.
Zhou Yu was very attentive, he really didn't smile or open his mouth, his face was full of spring breeze, and his mouth was sweet, and only the people in the world who didn't have good intentions knew this set the most.
Xuan De let this governor be a little fidgety, Xuan De took a sip of wine, Zhou DuDu immediately gave it a full, at this time the big tent on both sides of the ambush knife and axe hand all pulled weapons waiting, just wait for Zhou Du Du to smash the cup, immediately wear out!
The hearts of the knife and axe bearers were sweating, and the hearts said, "Governor, why don't you drop the cup?" How could they know that Zhou Yu's heart was thinking that he had to do a full set of dramas, and how he had to drink some wine and talk about conversation. You can't just sit down and snap the wine glass, do things steadily, he wants a stable, accurate, and fierce opportunity.
After eating and drinking for a while, Zhou Du thought to himself, "Almost, fall!" He lifted up the cup and said, "Yuzhou, please drink this cup!" "It looks like he's going to give Xuande a toast, but in fact he's going to drop the glass."
Zhou Dudu's hand was already raised above his head, and at the same time as he raised the wine glass high, he suddenly saw it! Behind Xuan De, there was a man with a sword in his hand, squinting his eyes! The gaze was like a knife, so it didn't penetrate people, making Zhou Yu can't help but take a breath!
"Liu Yuzhou, who is standing behind you?" Zhou Yu asked.
Xuan De looked back and said, "This is my second brother Yun Chang." ＂
Zhou Yu cleverly shivered, "Yuzhou, is it said that guan Yu, guan yunchang, who lifted the siege of the white horse, beheaded Yan Liang, Xue Wen ugly, and slashed six generals in five consecutive passes?" ＂
"It was this man, come, second brother, who had seen the Governor. Xuande introduced.
"Governor please!" Yun Chang reluctantly arched his hand.
"Second Army Hou! My father is disrespectful, coming and coming, watching, watching the seats. Zhou Yu stuttered a little as he spoke, and at the same time he gently placed the wine glass he was holding on the table.
The leader of the knife and axe hand couldn't stand it, his eyes stared at Zhou Yu's wine glass and stared sour, but he expected du du to raise the cup up, and his heart said, "This time it's going to fall." ＂
He stood up slowly, arched his waist, nestled his back, arched his front legs, and his back legs collapsed, and he was about to wear it out, but how could the Du Dou Cup be put down again when he lifted it so high? He was a little discouraged, but where did he know that Du Du's cold sweat was soaking his clothes!
Zhou Yuxin said, "It's dangerous! If it weren't for the cupping, I would have been able to rest. ＂
The plan to smash the cup during the banquet to kill Liu Bei was naturally in vain.
"Why did the ancients always like to throw cups as numbers?" Governor Zhou Yu knew the essentials and knew the magic of breaking:
First, the cup is easy to take, very convenient and not easy to attract the attention of the other party
If anyone who thinks of the idea of "smashing the cup for the number" must be used together with the Hongmen banquet, I would like to ask what is the easiest to take between the banquets, not to surprise each other, and not to hit the grass and snake?
The cup is the first choice, pretend to drink to pick up the cup, and then borrow the "hand slip" to fall to the ground, then it is very likely that your knife and axe rush in, the other party will find the abnormality, in order to achieve the purpose of killing the enemy unprepared.
Second, the cup can be picked up and put down, and it is rich in the place of maneuver
Between the banquets, pushing the cup to change the cup, the wine is a very common thing, in the drinking room like Zhou Dudu, found that the current half is not the favorable time to drop the cup, found that they are at a disadvantage, then gently put back on the table, firmly grasp the initiative, thinking: Today I will not fall the wine glass, so as to make a plan free, so that things are full of circumlocution, without making a big fuss about things, and even take their own lives.
Third, the cup is not successful, avoid embarrassment
If Zhou Gongjin did not return the number by throwing the cup, but drew his sword or dropped the plate and lifted the table, it would be a great embarrassment!
For example, smashing a plate, adding soup and water, picking up and lifting it halfway and finding something wrong and silently putting it down? Others must guess that when you are a fool, you want to plot against you and expose yourself, so why bother?
Draw your sword and lift the table? This behavior is not only difficult to collect, but also a troublesome move, can you guarantee that your sword is fast or the enemy's weapon is fast? And a sword is drawn or the table is lifted to say, "I'm upset with you!" "Directly tearing the skin of the face, there is no place to maneuver, and it is extremely embarrassing."
Only drop the cup as a number, both safe and easy to put away, even if you really fell to the ground, see the timing is not right, the situation is not good, it can also be said that the hand slipped and just pushed away, there is a way: as long as I am not embarrassed, the embarrassment is someone else!
