Is “He resolved the siege of Liu Bei by shooting a halberd at the camp gate.” true?

The Records of the Three Kingdoms, Book of Wei, Biography of Lü Bu records that Lü Bu set up a halberd at the camp gate and shot an arrow through the small branch of the halberd, successfully dissuading Ji Ling from attacking Liu Bei. (Original text: “布令门候于营门中举一只戟，布言：“诸君观布射戟小支，一发中者诸君当解去，不中可留决斗。”布举弓射戟，正中小支。诸将皆惊，言“将军天威也”！”——Source: data/raw/sanguozhi/魏书·吕布臧洪传.txt)
