Who used honey traps in ancient times?

Not long ago, I read the honey trap in the book "250 strategies" and suddenly thought of many conveniences between China and the United States in the real world. In my opinion, if you want to know something, you must start with its history to get a thorough understanding.

Interpretation of "honey trap"

The "honey trap" ranked thirty-first in the ancient "thirty-six schemes", that is, the "defeat" ranked first. "Thirty-six Strategies" explains its strategy: "If the soldiers are strong, attack their generals; Smart people will hurt their feelings. When a weak soldier collapses, his potential will wither. Protect the situation with the shackles of the empire. " The vernacular can be interpreted as: "for a powerful enemy, we must use various means to subdue his generals;" For a resourceful general, try to confuse his fighting will with the slutty voice of a beautiful woman. When the general's morale drops and the soldiers' morale drops, the troops lose their fighting capacity. Using the enemy's weakness to divide and disintegrate, I can conveniently save my strength. " Accordingly, the word "beauty" here, "beauty" is a verb, and "person" refers to the enemy; The meaning of "honey trap" refers to deceiving the enemy with material temptation, making the enemy covet ease and enjoyment, lowering morale, falling apart internally, and then seeking offensive strategies. Perhaps it is because the implementation of the honey trap often needs the help of beautiful women, so it is generally understood as a strategy to use beautiful women to achieve a certain goal. The word "beauty" here has pointed to "beauty".

The essence of "honey trap"

The "thirty-six plan" included the honey trap in the defeat plan, which means that the implementation of this plan needs to pay a certain price. This price is the price of beauty, specifically the price of women. Political, military and economic struggles by using honey traps have occurred at all times, at home and abroad, and are not a specialty of a certain country or dynasty. The story of honey trap is both legendary and romantic. In this kind of literary works, some beautiful women sent as political tools are portrayed as heroines who care about the country and the people. In order to save the nation and kill the traitors, they resolutely use their own bodies as soft weapons to attack and achieve the purpose of rejuvenating the country or eliminating violence-Shi and The Story Of Diu Sim in China's classical literary works are typical of such beautiful women; Others have been described as the bane of the country's national chaos by mistake-such as Xia's My Sister's Happiness, Shang's Praise and Praise of da ji, and later generations' exhortation of ministers, but women's mistakes in the country will be cited as evidence.

The downfall of a dynasty and a king in history has its political and economic reasons. Heroes can't dominate history. How can a beautiful woman have this ability? If the responsibility of national subjugation and extinction must be blamed on individuals, it should be blamed on the king of national subjugation who indulges in womanhood and is arrogant and extravagant. The role played by women in the honey trap is essentially just a tool of political struggle. In most honey traps, women are just the chromaticity of men's tools to vent their desires, and they are in an insulted humble position. To praise these beautiful women's "righteous acts" or condemn them as "disasters" in the wrong country, it is better to lament their tragic fate. Describing the "beauty" in the honey trap as a heroine who cares about the country and the people is actually affirming the rationality of women's behavior of using their bodies as a tool for political struggle, which is a spiritual insult to women's images.

The spread of honey traps in past dynasties

China's honey trap spread mainly through official history, unofficial history, various literary works and folk anecdotes.

The official history may be because there are many taboos, and there are really few honey trap stories in it. Only Historical Records is an exception. Famous honey trap stories in history, such as Li Rong messing around with women to promote sales; Xun, want to remove Guo, Yu. Qin Mugong makes more money with female music; Li gave Lu a beautiful BMW and drove Confucius away; Zhang cheated several times with a honey trap; Lv Buwei substituted flowers for trees, making strangers return to Xianyang and worship them as relatives; Xiongnu's modu chanyu paralyzed Wang Hu with a good horse and a good wife, and finally smashed East Lake in one fell swoop; Wait, the historical records have made quite vivid and detailed records.

Unofficial history was written by a private person, and the choice of historical materials was relatively free, which enabled many contents not found in official history to be recorded and preserved. Historical books, such as Zuo Zhuan, Mandarin and Wu Yue Chun Qiu, have always been regarded as official history by historians. Some honey trap stories that were not included in the official history were fortunately preserved. For example, Zheng Wugong married a female butcher to blind Gustav Hugo, and then easily figured it out; Cai Hou hated Hou for betraying himself and seduced King Chu Wen at the Chu banquet, making him turn losses into profits. Gou Jian, the King of Yue, used literary works to destroy Wu Jiushu, and used honey tricks to bring him back to life several times, eventually destroying Wu. Wait, now many people don't doubt the truth of these plots.

Literary works (mainly historical novels), official history of fully mechanized mining, anecdotes of unofficial history and folklore also recorded and preserved many honey trap stories. In the historical novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Luo Guanzhong tells two honey trap stories, that is, besides the younger sisters of Dong Zhuo and Sun Quan, Wang Yun also offered his handmaid to earn Liu Bei. The Story Of Diu Sim is a character that can't be found in all kinds of history books. Her fate is linked with Wang Yun, Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu. Wang Yun made cloth kill Zhuo, which is recorded in the history books. The focus of the problem is whether Wang Yun killed Zhuo with The Story Of Diu Sim as bait. Scholars who study The Romance of the Three Kingdoms affirm that some reference materials that Luo Guanzhong read when writing The Romance of the Three Kingdoms have been lost, so it is difficult to conclude that a character or plot in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms that has not been recorded in history belongs to fiction. For example, in Chapter 96 of the book, a general named Zhang Pu was written, but there were no historical books such as The History of the Three Kingdoms and Notes on Pei Songzhi. When the tombs of Emperor Guangxu and Brother Qiang Pu were excavated in the late Qing Dynasty, it was found that Zhang Pu was not a fictional character. At present, there are no unearthed cultural relics that can prove the existence of The Story Of Diu Sim, but we can still find many clues by carefully studying a large number of records about Wang Yun, Lu Bu and Dong Zhuo in the History of the Later Han Dynasty and the History of the Three Kingdoms. According to "The Biography of Lu Bu in the Later Han Dynasty", "Zhuo took cloth as the captain of the ride, swore to be a father and son, and loved faith. Slightly moved to corps commander, sealing the capital Hou Ting. Zhuo knows that he is fierce and crazy. Every time he doubts fear, he often uses cloth to protect himself. If the taste is small and loses its outstanding significance, you can throw it with a halberd and get rid of it. And change capacity to thank, Zhuo Yi also solution. The reason for the cloth is yin qi resentment. Zhuo also put the cloth in the middle of the pavilion and hid it for the ladies-in-waiting, which was unsafe. Because I went to see Stuart Wang Yun, I have seen several murders since Chen Zhuo. So I consulted with Shang Shu's servant and wanted to punish Zhuo. Because I told him, I made Zhuo the inside man. " Analyze this passage: Zhuo and Bu are sworn as father and son, and they "love and believe" Bu. How could they be so angry that they took Lu Bu's hand and threw it at him? Cloth was having an affair with Zhuo's maid-in-waiting. If this "maid-in-waiting" was not proposed by Wang Yun, how could Lu Bu tell Wang Yun about this shameful thing instead? As an official history, The History of the Later Han Dynasty and The History of the Three Kingdoms give up the role of the story of Diusim and omit the details of Wang Yunxing's use of honey traps, which seems understandable. Later generations listed the story of Diusim as one of the four beauties in ancient China, indicating that the image of Diusim's story has been accepted by the general public.

An example of a honey trap

The story of Sun Quan's sister earning Liu Bei's "losing his wife and losing his soldiers" is based on the History of the Three Kingdoms. However, when Luo Guanzhong taught this historical story, he also invented many plots. For example, the key figures and Joe who contributed to Liu Bei's marriage in the novel died as early as the fourteenth year of Jian' an; Another example is the Buddhist temple Kanluoji, which "the Buddhist temple meets the groom", which did not exist at that time; The novel's description of Sun Quan's sister's attitude in this political marriage is also untrue. She married Liu Bei, who was nearly half a century old, and married to a place called the Allied Forces. This political marriage is a tragedy for her, not a comedy.

Language "Liu Fa": "Take its chaotic ministers to fascinate them, and enter their beauty to confuse them." The idea is that, for the enemy that is difficult to conquer by military action, we should use "sugar-coated cannonballs" to defeat the enemy generals ideologically and volitionally, so that their internal combat effectiveness will be lost, and then strike. As the text of this plan says, we must conquer its generals against powerful enemies; For a resourceful general, we should try our best to corrupt him. The general's fighting spirit will drop, and the troops will definitely lose morale and combat effectiveness. Only by attacking its weaknesses in various ways can we preserve our strength and turn the weak into the strong.

In the Battle of wuyue in the Spring and Autumn Period, Gou Jian was first defeated by Fu Cha. In order to humiliate Gou Jian, Fu Cha, the king of Wu, punished Gou Jian and his wife for hard work in the Wu Palace. Gou Jian, the king of Yue, kowtowed to Fu Cha, the king of Wu, and tried his best to please him, thus defrauding Fu Cha's trust and finally letting him return to Yue. Later, the State of Yue took advantage of the fish in troubled waters and finally destroyed the State of Wu, forcing Fu Cha to draw his sword and commit suicide. How did the "fire" start? It turns out that Gou Jian successfully used the "honey trap". After Gou Jian was put back to Yue State, he tried his best and never forgot his revenge. The State of Wu is powerful, and the State of Yue cannot win by force. Doctor Zi gave him a plan: "Birds that fly high die of delicious food, and fish in deep springs die of fragrant bait." If you want to restore the country and avenge it, you should do what you like and weaken its fighting spirit. In this way, you can kill focha. " So Fu Cha chose a stone and two stunning beauties to give to Fu Cha, and every year he gave rare treasures to the prince of Wu. Fu Cha thought that Gou Jian had been surrendered by him, so he had no doubt. Fu Cha was drinking and having fun with beautiful women all day, and even the admonition of Minister Wu Zixu was completely ignored. Later, the prince of Wu attacked the State of Qi, and Gou Jian sent troops to help him cut Qi to show his loyalty and paralyze Fu Cha. After the victory of Wu, Gou Jian personally went to Wu to congratulate him. Focha's lust for women is getting worse every day, and he doesn't want to ask about politics at all. Wu Zixu's remonstrance was invalid and he was forced to commit suicide. Gou Jian sees it in his eyes and enjoys it in his heart. In 482 BC, there was a drought in the State of Wu, and Gou Jian took Fu Cha to the north to join the alliance, which highlighted the attackers' attack on the State of Wu. Wu was finally destroyed by the state of Yue, and Fu Cha had to wait for death.

Women have this kind of magic. It can be said that God deliberately wants to conquer the creation of men, especially those heroes. Heroes and beauties are like an organic whole. No matter at home and abroad, ancient and modern, they occupy the lens of history, and the historical destiny of China is controlled by these two kinds of people. There is no land here. They need each other. If we say yes, they complement each other. To put it bluntly, it is the ratio of friends to *. What's more, "since ancient times, heroes have been lecherous, and lecherous is not a hero." Bonfires deceive each other, but Bomei people rushed up with a smile, and they were nothing more than a beauty. Even the celibate Hitler had a secret crush and had to have a wedding before he died. Ito Bowen said, "Get drunk, lie on a beautiful woman's lap, wake up and hold the power of the world", which is the truest confession.

Therefore, the use of honey trap will never be limited by time and space. As the saying goes, mats are battlefields, powder is armor, spears are promising, and laughter is better than bows and knives. There are those who charge on the battlefield, those who seize the spirit of the head of state in Congress, those whose fathers are more expensive than their daughters, those whose brothers are more expensive than their sisters, and even those who are willing to be cuckolded and whose husbands are more expensive than their wives. This plan can not only tempt the enemy, but also serve as a ladder to climb up.

There are always thirty-six schemes in China folk tradition, among which the most attractive and impressive one is the honey trap, which often works wonders. Why is a simple honey trap so small that it can make money, so big that it can even charm the whole country and change the color of the world? In fact, the reason is very simple. The schemer just caught the essence of "eating" that ordinary people have. Even Da Shengkong once lamented: "I have never seen a good virtue as a good sex lover", not to mention many "ordinary people" whose passions inspire their hearts. How can a lecherous not fall into a trap?

The honey trap, which has existed since ancient times, can be traced back to the praise of iceberg beauty. She made the princes of Zhou Youwang play bonfires to make them laugh. She was the one who complimented Zhou Wang at that time; The most famous beauty trick is Shi, a woman who plays the role of Huan Sha. She realized the ambition of Gou Jian, the King of Yue, to destroy Wu Xue's shame and establish hegemony. So she ranks first among the four ancient beauties. In addition, the stories of Wang Zhaojun, Yi Shi Dong Zhuo and Diusim, far beyond the Great Wall and near Xiongnu, are all lovely heroines in the honey trap that has gained fame in history. . . . . .

These honey traps are designed to attract favor, avoid disaster or seek profit. In short, these popular honey traps since ancient times are essentially sexual bribes.

Xi Shi: Kung Fu Jiaowa is just a high-level tribute of Yue State.

"Have you noticed, pavilion Eva early Yuanyang lodge, Yue Nv flowers have seen enough. Birds sing on the incense trail dust, and people walking in the corridor go green with moss. Yu Yu moved to the palace, Wan Li was worried, Zhuge Cuiwu and Gu Liangzhou did not sing martial arts songs for you, and the Hanshui River flowed southeast day and night. " Shi is famous throughout the empire for her beauty, and she is a real beauty. According to legend, she was born in poverty and used to wash gauze in Xitou for a living. However, her beauty shocked the fish swimming in the water. They were ashamed and hid under the water, afraid to surface for air. Therefore, the story of "sinking fish" spread in later generations. However, because of her delicate constitution, she often makes a gesture of holding her heart, which is considered beautiful by the whole world and even attracts the women next door to "learn from the scriptures." This anecdote has also been passed down to this day.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, Gou Jian, King of Yue, and Fu Cha, King of Wu, hated killing their father and destroying the country. In order to win the chance to recharge their batteries, they listened to the clever plan of doctor Fan Li and looked around for beautiful women to give to the lecherous Fucha. Because of her beauty, Shi became the decisive pawn in the plan of rejuvenating the country, and was naturally sent to the Wu Palace and became the concubine of the prince of Wu.

Focha was fascinated by her beautiful appearance and gentle words. He ordered a huge sum of money to build a pavilion and play with her all day. From then on, he indulged in debauchery, ignored state affairs, put aside his ambition to compete for the hegemony of the leader, and relaxed his vigilance against the king of Yue, which gave Gou Jian a good opportunity to eat hard and make a big impact.

At the same time, Shi also used Fu Cha's trust in her to alienate Fu Cha from Wu Zixu, the general of Wu State, which eventually forced Wu Zixu to perish, weakened Wu's military strength, and made great contributions to the revival of Yue State and the victory of wuyue War.

After the death of Wu, the stone disappeared. Some people say that she and her doctor Fan Li are lovers, and they both live in seclusion after retirement. Others said that they dedicated their virginity to the prince of Wu, endured humiliation and burden only to save the nation, and then sank into Taihu Lake. Some people even say that Shi and Fu Tea have been in love for a long time. She fell in love with Fu Tea in the pavilion on the day of the national break. . . . . . The truth has been lost in the fog of history, leaving only this epic honey trap legend for future generations to comment on.

Zhaojun: Han's Kiss on Huns' Sexual Bribery

Wang Zhaojun is probably one of the most beautiful women of all ages. Later generations Du Fu, Jiang Yan, Wang Anshi, Ma Zhiyuan and others all recited her masterpieces. Zhao Jun, a native of the Western Han Dynasty and Yuan Dynasty, was also a native of Guizhou Province with Qu Yuan. She is rich and beautiful, and has a good temperament, but Zhaojun is famous in history not only because of her extraordinary beauty, but also because she took the initiative to invite Xiongnu to marry the Great Wall, in exchange for peace and tranquility in the frontier. At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Han Dynasty often met Xiongnu soldiers, and the smoke covered the sky and the drums shook the air. "Since the war broke out, I think the world has narrowed." The people are displaced, the pastoral hills are in ruins, and there is no peace in the north. Since Zhaojun and his wife got married, the two sides turned swords into plows and hoes, and the northern border appeared a peaceful scene of "the border town is closed, cattle and horses are wild, there is no warning for dogs and dogs in the third world, and there is no war in Li Shu". 1954 The fragments of tiles such as Khan and Qin, Long Live and Changle Weiyang unearthed from the Han Tomb in Baotou are the testimony of this period of history. Therefore, Zhaojun's departure from the fortress has become a classic historical moment, which is constantly reappearing in ancient books and on the stage. Later generations' comments on "Love and fruit make the frontier smoke disappear, and the deer pavilion is a fair evaluation of her feat."

As far as Zhao Jun's personal experience is concerned, her intimate feat is actually a personal lifelong tragedy. She chose a political marriage without love. As Engels said, this kind of marriage "plays a decisive role in family interests, not personal wishes." In that case, how can the final decision of marriage belong to love? " After all, Zhaojun was just a bargaining chip for Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty to comfort Xiongnu. To put it more bluntly, Zhaojun was actually a sexual bribe given by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to Huns Khan. Her sacrifice and compromise can't shake off this embarrassing color, which makes people cry. Legend has it that Zhao Jun was filled with sadness when he left the fortress. In order to relieve the anguish of going abroad and leaving home, he played the pipa on horseback. Her music is touching and sad, and her appearance is touching and delicate. Even the geese flying south were fascinated by it and could not bear to move on, so they stayed with Zhaojun to accompany her. . . . . . This is the origin of the allusion of "wild goose", which echoes the "sinking fish" of stone.

Perhaps only Du Fu was her bosom friend and heard the helplessness and grievances in her heart-"The Tatar song on the jade piano tells her eternal sorrow."
