On the other side of the ship, there was an army waiting for Zhuge Liang's arrival and ready to accept his command. Zhuge Liang was sitting on his straw boat and observing the surroundings with a bow and arrow. He saw that the peasants were borrowing arrows and decided to borrow them. He promised the farmers that if they lent him enough arrows, he would repay them. The farmers happily agreed and handed their arrows to Zhuge Liang. Under Zhuge Liang's command, an army led by Liu Bei began to shoot arrows at the enemy's position. As the arrows were fired, Zhuge Liang's grass boat began to turn and sail towards the enemy's army.

A'straw man novel' is likely a novel that somehow involves the straw man concept. It could be that the plot revolves around characters who are constantly creating and attacking straw man arguments. In a political - themed novel, for instance, politicians or activists might use straw man tactics against each other. The novel could then explore the consequences of such actions on the characters and the overall story world. It might also be a novel that critiques the use of straw man arguments in society through its fictional characters and events.

It's not a true story. It's a fictional work created for entertainment.

The thatched cottage was a classic modern Chinese novel written by Lu Xun. The novel depicted the darkness of the old Chinese society and the suffering of the people, but it also revealed the ugliness and nobility of human nature. There were many wonderful sentences such as: This world was filled with injustice and despair. Everyone was struggling to survive. Once people's hearts were hurt, they would wither like flowers. Knowledge can change fate, but only true hard work can change a person's fate. True strength is to be able to endure pain and move forward in the dark. These sentences were profound and touching, revealing the complexity of human nature and the meaning of life. The thatched cottage is a classic novel worth reading. It can inspire us to think about life and social problems.

It could be Chopper. Since Chopper is a doctor and Reiju has some medical knowledge, they might bond over sharing medical techniques and treating the crew's injuries. Also, Chopper's kind - hearted nature would make him a great friend for Reiju who might be used to a more cut - throat family environment.

The term'man of straw' in a novel could refer to a character who is weak or ineffectual. It might be used to represent a certain type of person in the story's society, perhaps someone who is easily influenced or lacks real substance. For example, in some classic novels, such as Dickens' works, there are often characters who seem to be'men of straw' in the sense that they are just going through the motions of life without any real purpose or strength of character.

A'straw man story' could refer to a narrative where a straw man argument is used. A straw man argument is when someone misrepresents an opponent's position to make it easier to attack. In a story, this might mean creating a false or distorted view of a character's beliefs or actions for the sake of the plot, like a character wrongly assuming another character's motives to create conflict.

I'm not sure specifically as I haven't read it. It could be about a character who draws the short straw in some kind of situation, like being chosen for an unwanted task or facing a difficult fate.

I don't know who the author of the'short straw novel' is. There could be many novels with this name or something similar, so it's difficult to determine without more information.

Well, without having read it, it could potentially revolve around a 'straw man' which might be a central symbol in the plot. It could be a story where this 'straw man' represents an idea or a person that is easily knocked down, and the narrative could be about the events and characters that interact with this concept.
