They were at war again at that time,Liu Bei ordered his generals Zhao Yun (zhào yún 趙云) and Huang Zhong (huáng zhōng 黃忠) to loot Cao Cao’s food supplies. Rather irritated by it,Cao Cao led on a large force against Zhao Yun,who then retreated swiftly as fas as the gates of his camp. There, he ordered the soldiers to open the gate widely,lower the flags and stop drumming. Zhao Yun then stationed his troops in ambush nearly. When Cao Cao arrived and saw the pretty odd situation, he suspected a trap in an instant and thus withdrew his forces rashily.
