CHAPTER 43
Zhuge Liang Worsts the Scholars in Argument
Lu Su Rejects the Majority Opinion
HAVING left Liu Bei and Liu Qi, Lu Su and Zhuge
Liang went by boat to Chaisang. Once aboard they took
counsel together and Lu Su said, "When you see General
Sun, don't tell him how powerful Cao Cao's army
actually is."
"Don't worry," replied Zhuge Liang. "I know what
to say."
When the boat arrived, Lu Su asked Zhuge Liang to
wait in the hostel while he went to see Sun Quan.
Sun Quan was conferring in the audience chamber
with his civil and military officers. As soon as he heard
that Lu Su was back, he called him in and asked:
"What did you find out on your trip to Jiangxia?"
"I know the general situation and shall report it to
you later," replied Lu Su.
Then Sun Quan showed him a letter from Cao Cao,
saying, "This arrived yesterday. I have sent the mes-
senger back, and we are meeting now to decide on a
reply."
