Retell the story
Imagine you are one of Cao Cao’s soldiers. After the battle, you tell your family about it. Use the information from the story on page 94 to help you.
In the early morning that day, most of us were sleeping in our camps. Suddenly, we heard some loud noises from the river. We quickly got up and went to look.
The river was covered in thick fog, so we couldn’t see anything. We only heard the sounds of drums and shouts. They were getting closer. It seemed like a lot of enemy ships were coming our way.
“The enemy is attacking!” our commander yelled. We began shooting arrows towards the enemy boats.
“Keep shooting!” he ordered. My hands shook — how many enemies were there?
Finally, the fog lifted. The enemy boats were empty! There were only straw men on board.
Then we heard someone shouting from the other side of the river, “Thank you for your arrows, Cao Cao.”
We were both angry and surprised, but there was nothing we could do. We just stood there, looking at the empty river.
