【Idiom Story】:

Shirtless, unarmoured. Metaphorically, there is no cover or no strategy in combat.

The fifty-ninth chapter of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms": Xu Chu got up and flew back into the formation, but he lost his armor, his muscles protruded, he lifted a knife naked, and turned over on his horse. Come to the decisive battle with Ma Chao.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the government was corrupt, and the warlords divided and attacked each other. Ma Teng, a warlord in Liangzhou, was killed by Cao Cao. Ma Teng's son, Ma Chao, in order to avenge his father, joined forces with Xiliang Taishou Han Sui and dispatched hundreds of thousands of troops to attack Cao Cao. The two sides faced each other in the Weikou area. The next day, the two armies went out of camp and formed a formation. Ma Chao held a spear and rode a horse, and fought with Cao Cao's fierce general Xu Chu. The two fought for more than 100 rounds, and there was no winner or loser. Because the war horses were tired, they returned to the army, changed horses, and fought for more than 100 rounds before going out into battle, and the victory and defeat were still indistinguishable. Xu Chu was able to kill, patted the horse back to the battle, took off the armor, revealed the protruding muscles, shirtless, and got on the horse with a knife to fight with Ma Chao. The officers and men on both sides were shocked. The two fought for more than 30 rounds, Xu Chu struggled to raise his knife and slash at Ma Chao, Ma Chao flashed, and stabbed Xu Chu in the heart with a gun. Xu Chu threw down the knife in his hand and clamped Ma Chao's gun hard, so the two grabbed it on the horse, Xu Chu was strong, clicked, twisted the gun shaft, and the two of them each took half of it and beat it on the horse. Then the two armies fought, and Cao Jun was mostly injured and retreated to the village to hold out. Ma Chao retreated to Weikou and said to Han Sui: I think in the fierce battle, there is no one who is more desperate than Xu Chu. He's such a 'tiger idiot'!
