While playing a board game, a man in this novel remains composed as his bone is scraped for poison. Earlier in this novel, that character hopes to “die on the same day, in the same month and in the same year” as men he met at an inn. A ritual in this novel is performed for three days and three nights to summon an eastern wind before a battle. A strategist in this novel “borrowed” arrows for a battle whose wind he used to carry fire ships into a fleet. That crushing defeat was suffered by Cáo Cāo (“tsao tsao”), the main antagonist of this member of the Four Great Classical Novels. For 10 points, name this historical Chinese novel titled for the conflict between Wei, Shu, and Wu. ■END■
