* During one of the Northern Campaigns, Sima Yi makes a wager with Cao Zhen that if the Shu Army doesn't show up within ten days, he'll come to Cao Zhen's camp dressed as a woman to admit he was wrong.
* Speaking of "dressing like a woman," during Zhuge Liang's last Northern Campaign before his death, he sends a present to Sima Yi: A deerskin dress. Sima Yi doesn't bite on the taunt, however.

So, he tells the servant of his [[TryToFitThatOnABusinessCard full title]] in hope of making a good impression.

** While this may be unintentional, Cao Cao's enemy(namely Liu Bei's faction and Sun Quan's faction) loves spreading rumors about Ma Teng's planning to invade Cao Cao's land in order to keep his attention elsewhere. It has become so effective that Cao Cao believed it every time he heard the rumor. The rumor only stopped when Cao Cao decided executed Ma Teng to end the threat for good. While it is true that Ma Teng had been at open hostility with Cao Cao, readers could not help but wonder whether it is the strategic concern that made Cao Cao to kill Ma Teng, or the baseless rumors had done most of the work.
* Liu Bei's marriage to Lady Sun (Sun Quan's sister, a.k.a. Sun Shang Xiang in ''VideoGame/DynastyWarriors'' and the operas). It's almost HilariousInHindsight when considered in today's context, from Zhuge Liang's counter-plan to save Liu Bei (from [[spoiler:the planned capture by Sun Quan and Zhou Yu's henchmen]]) by ''publicizing the wedding'' (predating the paparazzi/tabloids by centuries), to Lady Sun and her entourage (practically an AmazonBrigade) scaring the crap out of Liu Bei in the nuptial chambers - and scolding the Wu generals into submission when they elope. And all this while, Sun Quan and Zhou Yu are put through the HumiliationConga by everyone else involved (except Liu Bei, who's too nice - and a hostage for the most part). At the end when Zhou Yu is retreating after a failed final attempt to salvage the whole ordeal, the soldiers of Liu Bei stick around ''just to taunt him''.

* During the Campaign of HanZhong, Cao Cao placed his camp near the river as a bridgehead to defend Liu Bei's advance. Concerned about Cao Cao's forces, Zhuge Liang comes up with a trick to "persuade" Cao Cao to retreat by ramming drums every night. Due to Cao Cao's paranoid personality, he has to wake up the whole army to defend the camp against a surprise attack that would never happen. Eventually, this wear out Cao Cao so much that he is forced to break camp and retreat about 15km just so that he can sleep well at night again.
