In Conan's dream, there was a man named Chun Yuba who liked to drink. There is a big pagoda tree with deep roots and luxuriant leaves in his yard. On midsummer night, there are few stars in the moon, the evening breeze is blowing gently and the trees are swaying, which is a good place to enjoy the cool.

On Chunyuba's birthday, relatives and friends came to celebrate his birthday. He was happy for a while and then drank a few glasses of wine. In the evening, relatives and friends all went back, and Chunyuba rested under the big locust tree with a little drunkenness and fell asleep unconsciously.

In my dream, Chunyuba entered a tree hole at the invitation of two envoys. The sun shines in the cave, and there is another world, which is called Dahuai country. Just in time for Beijing to select officials, he also signed up. After three exams, the article was written very smoothly. When the exam results were announced, he ranked first. Then the emperor had an interview. Seeing that Chunyuba was handsome, talented and loved very much, the emperor personally named her the champion and betrothed the princess to him. The top scholar Lang became a husband, and the capital was once beautiful.

The relationship between husband and wife is very happy after marriage. Soon, Chunyu Kun was sent by the emperor to the county as a magistrate. Chunyu is diligent and loves the people. He often goes to the territory to investigate and study and check the work of his subordinates. The local administration is very clean and effective, and the local people greatly appreciate him. Thirty years later, Chunyuba's achievements have become famous all over the country. He has five men, two women and seven children, and he lives proudly. The emperor tried several times to transfer Chunyuba back to Beijing for promotion. When the locals heard about it, they all poured into the streets, blocked the satrap's carriage and forced him to succeed in Conan. Chun Yuba was moved by the people's love and had to stay to explain the situation to the emperor. The emperor appreciated his achievements and gave him many treasures as a reward.

One year, Luo sent troops to invade Dahuai, and the generals of Dahuai were ordered to meet the enemy, only to be defeated by enemy soldiers several times. The news of the defeat reached the capital, and the emperor was shocked, and hurriedly called the officials of the civil and military forces to discuss countermeasures. Ministers heard that the front-line troops were repeatedly defeated, and the enemy troops were approaching the capital, which was extremely fierce. One by one is scared to death. You look at me, I look at you, and they are helpless.

When the emperor saw the minister's appearance, he was very angry and said, "You usually pamper yourself and enjoy all the splendor. Once something happens to the country, it becomes a gourd without a mouth. You are timid. What's the use of asking you? "

At this time, the prime minister remembered Conan's outstanding achievements and recommended them to the emperor. The emperor immediately ordered Chun Yu to command the country's elite troops to fight against the enemy.

Chunyu Kun received orders from the emperor and immediately led his troops to war. However, he knows nothing about the art of war. No sooner had he fought the enemy than he was defeated and his military strength suffered heavy losses. He almost became a prisoner himself. The emperor was very disappointed when he learned the news. He ordered Chun Yuba to be removed from all his posts, demoted to a civilian and sent back to his hometown. Ba thought that his reputation had been ruined once, and he was ashamed and resentful. He let out a cry and woke up from his dream. He searched for the country of locust tree according to his dream.

This land is full of wailing geese-this land is full of refugees/wailing victims.

Explanation: metaphorically speaking, there are victims of moaning and screaming everywhere. Ai Hong: A whining wild goose.

There is a poem named Hongyan in The Book of Songs Xiaoya. Two of them are: "Wild geese come and they are crying."

It means: Hongyan can't find a place to live, flying aimlessly and crying sadly. Describe the tragic scene of displaced refugees moaning for help.

Because of these two poems, people later called the refugees who could not live in peace "love red"; There are so many people suffering, almost everywhere, that they are called "ubiquitous sadness" or "ubiquitous sadness"

The word "wow" in the original poem is often used to describe the noisy voice of crying and hunger, such as "crying for something to eat"

Love me, love my dog

Explanation: It is a metaphor for loving a person and caring about people or things related to him.

According to legend, Shang Zhouwang, the last emperor of Shang Dynasty, was a luxurious, cruel and heartless bad king. Jichang, the Xibe nationality, later Zhou Wenwang, tried every means to escape from prison because he opposed the imprisonment of Zhou Wang. At that time, the capital of Zhou was Qishan (now Qishan County, Shaanxi Province). After returning to Qishan, Zhou Wenwang was determined to overthrow the rule of Shang Dynasty. First, he hired Jiang Shang (Jiang Taigong), a military strategist, to actively train and prepare for war, and then he annexed several small vassal states around him, and his power gradually became stronger. Then, the capital moved to Fengyi (now near Huxian County, Shaanxi Province) and prepared to move eastward. However, Zhou Wenwang died shortly after moving the capital.

Zhou Wenwang's son Ji Fa succeeded to the throne, namely Zhou Wuwang. Jiang Taigong continues to be a strategist. King Wu's half-brother Ji Dan (Duke Zhou) and his half-brother Ji Shi (Zhao Gong) are two right-hand men. At the same time, King Wu won the support of several other governors. So, it was officially announced that it would send troops to attack Zhou. The army crossed the Yellow River in Jin Meng (now the South Yellow River Ferry in Mengxian County, Henan Province), pushed northeast, and approached Song Chao in Shang Dynasty (now the northeast of Qixian County, Henan Province). Because Shang Zhouwang had lost all his heart, and the army didn't want to die for him, so he ran away and fell down, and the uprising was soon conquered. Zhou Wang committed suicide, and the Shang Dynasty was over. In the next 800 years, it became the world of Zhou Dynasty, known as the Zhou Dynasty in history.

At the beginning of Zhou Wuwang's conquest of Chao Ge, King Wu was worried about how to deal with the nobles and officials left over from Shang Dynasty and whether he could stabilize the situation. To this end, he held consultations with Jiang Taigong and others. There is such a written record in Shuo Yuan Gui Fa compiled by Liu Xiang in Han Dynasty:

"Yin Ke, the king of Wu, summoned Taigong and asked,' What about the Naiqi people?' Taigong said to him:' I love people who love them, and I love black houses; People who hate others hate others. What if Xian Liu defeated the enemy and made it more than enough? Zhou Wuwang defeated the Shang Dynasty, summoned Jiang Taigong and asked, "What should we do with their personnel?" Taigong replied: "I heard that you love that person and will love his crow;" If you hate that man, get rid of his servants and servants. What do you think of killing all the enemies and leaving none? "

The so-called "Seo Woo" in the original text refers to the petty official with the lowest status, the housekeeper of the slave owners and nobles, and so on. (Yu, Wei, etc. ; Xu; Small officials. )

There is a similar record in the Biography of Shangshu compiled by Fu Sheng in the Han Dynasty: "When you die, the prince of Wu is undecided. Then he called Taigong and said, "How about entering Yin?" Said the squire, "I heard that; The person you love is also a black house; He doesn't love others, and his spare time. " "

This record is similar to that contained in Shuo Yuan. However, the word "Seo Woo" is written as "Yu Xu", which means different things. "Yu Xu" no longer belongs to the level of professional history, but a slave or criminal lower than "Seo Woo", such as "Taishi" Ji Zi, who was imprisoned because of dissatisfaction, so he pretended to be crazy and was willing to be a slave, so Zhuangzi called him "Yu Xu".

In addition, The Biography of Six Pagodas of Han Poetry and other records about the above conversation are basically the same. Because of this legend, the idiom "love me, love my dog" came into being.

China has had a superstitious custom since ancient times, thinking that crows are "ominous birds", and whoever lands on its house will suffer misfortune. In the Xiaoya section of The Book of Songs, the oldest collection of poems in China, there is a poem entitled The First Month, which contains "Whose home is this?" It can be seen that the ancients hated crows, but few people loved them. The so-called "love me, love my dog" is because I love that person, and even his crows don't think it's ominous and annoying. This idiom has always been used as a metaphor for pushing love. Because you love a person deeply, you love his relatives, friends and other people or other things. This is called "love me, love my dog" or "love me, love my dog".

Du Fu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, wrote "Give Li Shehong" (Shehong, place name, in present-day Sichuan; In Li's poem, the first two sentences are: "A husband has a place to live, and his hobby is good." There is a sentence in Song Dynasty's Poem of Lianxi written by Zhou Dunyi: "Angry crabs in the water, love my house and my dog". In the poem "Boyi" written in the Song Dynasty, there is also a saying that "when it is clear, I look at the birds in front of the door and people look at your family", all of which use the idiom "love me, love my dog".

He said: "Shu is willing to return, eating meat at night, walking slowly is a car, innocence is expensive, and quietness is worrying about oneself."

The explanation is to walk slowly, as if by car.

During the Warring States Period, there was a scholar named Yan Shu in the State of Qi. Qi Xuanwang longed for his name and called him to the palace. Yan Shu casually walked into the palace and came to the front steps of the temple. Seeing Wang Xuan waiting for him to visit, he stopped and stopped. When King Xuan saw it, he called, "Yan Shu, come!" Unexpectedly, Yan Shu remained motionless and stopped Xuan Wang and said, "Your Majesty, come quickly!" King Xuan was very unhappy. When the ministers around him saw Yan Shu's arrogance, they all said, "Your Majesty is the monarch and you are a subject. Your majesty can call you here, or you can call your majesty here. How can you do this? " Yan Shu said: "If I go to see the king, it means that I envy his power;" If the king comes, it shows that he is a respectable corporal. Instead of making me envy the power of the king, I might as well let corporal Dayu be virtuous. Qi Xuanwang asked angrily, "Is the king noble or the scholar noble?" ? Yan Shu said without thinking: "Of course, scholars are nobles, but kings are not!" " King Xuan said, "Is there any basis for you to say this?" Yan Shu smiled and said, "Of course. Once upon a time, when the State of Qin attacked the State of Qi, the King of Qin once gave an order: Anyone who dares to cut wood within fifty paces of the high tomb will be killed! He also ordered: Whoever can cut off the head of the King of Qi will be named Wan Huhou and rewarded for his work. From this perspective, the head of a living monarch is worse than the grave of a dead scholar. " Qi Xuanwang was speechless and unhappy. Ministers quickly cleared the way: "Yan Shu, come here! Yan Shu, come here! Our king has a country with thousands of chariots (1000 gauntlets). Who dares to disobey? The king has everything he wants, and all people are obedient. You gentlemen are so mean! " Yan Shu retorted, "What you said is wrong! In the era of Dayu, there were as many princes as there were nationalities. Why is this? Because he respects scholars. To Shang Tang, governors as many as three thousand. Today, only 24 people are lonely. From this perspective, paying attention to scholars is the key to gain and loss. Since ancient times, no one can be famous all over the world because he is not pragmatic. Therefore, your father should be ashamed of not consulting people often and not learning from people with low status. When King Xuan heard this, he felt that he was wrong and said, "I'm asking for trouble. I didn't know the villain's behavior until I heard your comments. I hope you will accept me as your student and you will stay with me in the future. I promise you have meat to eat and a car to go out. Your wife and children will be beautifully dressed. " Yan Shu declined politely. "Jade was originally produced in the mountains. If it is processed by craftsmen, it will be broken. "Although it is still very precious, it has lost its original appearance after all. Scholars are born in the backcountry, and if they are selected, they will enjoy the benefits; It's not that he can't be noble, but that his foreign style and inner world will be destroyed. Therefore, I would rather hope that the king would let me go back, eat late every day, walk steadily and slowly enough to be a bus; A peaceful day is no worse than a strong day. Quiet, pure, self-controlled, never tired of it. It was your king who ordered me to speak, and it was my uncle Yan who declared it truthfully. " Yan Shu said, "I made two obeisances to Xuan Wang and went out to the DPRK.

Sweet food, beautiful clothes, live a peaceful life and enjoy its customs.

Interpretation is a happy and stable life.

In the Spring and Autumn Period of the story, there was a famous philosopher and thinker. His last name is Li. It is said that when he was born, his hair was already white. A little old man with a white beard; So people call him "Lao Zi"; He also said that he was born under a plum tree, so his surname is Li; Because his ears are big, they are called "ears". In fact, Lao Tzu is a respectful name for him. He has always been dissatisfied with the reality at that time, opposed the wave of social innovation at that time, and wanted to go back. He misses the ancient primitive society and thinks that material progress and cultural development have destroyed people's simplicity and brought people pain, so he longs for an ideal society of "small country and few people". He always describes his "small country with few people" society like this: the country is small and the population is sparse. Even if there are many appliances, don't use them. Don't let people risk their lives and don't move far away. Even if there is a car and a boat, no one rides it. Even with weapons and equipment, there is no place to use it. It is necessary for people to re-use the ancient knotting method to record, eat sweetly, dress comfortably and live comfortably, and be satisfied with the original customs. Neighboring countries can see each other. Crows and dogs can hear each other, but people will not communicate with each other until they die of old age.

An Ran Wu Xiao

Explanation: Nothing happened, no damage or accident. Disease, disease, disaster.

In 266 BC, Zhao Huiwen, the monarch of the State of Zhao, died, and his son Taizi Dan was succeeded by Zhao Chengxiao. Being young, his mother Zhao is in charge of handling state affairs. Zhao is a wise and knowledgeable middle-aged woman. When she was just in charge of state affairs, Qin stepped up her attack on Zhao. Zhao was in danger and asked Qi for help. Qi asked Zhao to send her youngest son to Qi as a hostage before sending troops. Zhao was reluctant to leave his youngest son, but after listening to the minister's advice, he often sent to Qi. Qi sent troops to help Zhao beat back Qin Jun.

On one occasion, the King of Qi sent messengers to Zhao with letters to greet him. Wei Hou asked the messenger before opening the letter. "Qi's harvest is not bad, is it? Are people safe? Is the King of Qi healthy? "

The envoy of the State of Qi was very unhappy and said, "I was sent by the King of Qi to greet you. Now, don't ask the king of Qi, ask the harvest and the people first. Can you put the humble in front and the noble in the back? "

Wei Hou smiled and said, "No.. If there is no harvest, how can anyone? If there is no people, how can there be a monarch? Can you give up the basics and just ask the questions on the side when you say hello? "

Hearing this, the emissary of Qi was speechless for a moment. This allusion to "innocence" later evolved into the idiom "innocence".

As strong as Mount Tai-as strong as a rock.

Explanation:

As steady as Mount Tai. The description is very stable and unshakable.

This idiom comes from Mei Cheng's "Writing to the King of Wu" in the Western Han Dynasty, and the words of loyal ministers will be pleasing to the eye. Do whatever you want, it is dangerous to accumulate eggs and it is difficult to get through; Follow one's inclinations, easily flip one's hands, and be content with Mount Tai.

Mei Cheng, Zi Shu, a native of Huaiyin (now Jiangsu) in the Western Han Dynasty, was a famous writer in the Han Dynasty. When Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty was Emperor Jing, he worked as a doctor in Liu Bi's mansion.

Guo Guan was a big country among the governors at that time, and Liu Bi, the prince of Wu, was ambitious, held a grudge against the central government and secretly planned a rebellion. Han Jing appointed Chao Cuo, a brilliant politician, as an ancient counselor, while Chao Cuo advocated reducing the territory of vassal states, strengthening the power and prestige of the central authorities and consolidating national unity. Seeing some vassals cede territory, Liu Bi knew that she was inevitable, so she contacted the vassals of Chu, Zhao, Jiaoxi, Jiaodong and other countries to plot rebellion.

Mei Cheng clearly saw the evil of Liu Bi's conspiracy to rebel and wrote a letter to the king of Wu to remonstrate with Liu Bi. In "exhortation", he said: "If we can listen to the words of loyal ministers, all disasters can be avoided. If you must do what you want to do, it is more dangerous than folding eggs and more difficult than heaven; However, if you can change your original idea as soon as possible, it will be much easier than tumbling, and it will also make your position as stable as Mount Tai. "

However, Liu Bi was stubborn and stepped up her conspiracy activities. Therefore, Mei Cheng had to leave the State of Wu and visit Liuwufu in Liang Xiaowang. In BC 154, Liu Bi contacted the governors of Chu, Zhao, Jiaoxi and Jiaodong and rebelled in the name of "killing Chao Cuo on the side of Qing Dynasty". Historically, it was called "the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms with Wu and Chu".

Han Jing listened to the slanderers, killed Chao Cuo and apologized to the vassals. At this time, Mei Cheng wrote a letter to the king of Wu, urging Liu Bi to stop fighting. Liu Bi still refused to look back. Soon, Zhou Yafu, a general of the Han Dynasty, led the army to defeat the rebels in Wu Chu. Liu E, the king of Chu, committed suicide, and Liu Bi, the king of Wu, fled to East Vietnam and was killed. Five other kings also committed suicide or were killed. The rebellion was a complete failure in only three months. After the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms was pacified, Mei Cheng became famous for his foresight in Letter to the King of Wu.

Later, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ascended the throne and sent someone to recruit him to be an official in Beijing. Unfortunately, he died on the road before he got to Beijing.

Buy the box, but return the pearls.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a businessman in the State of Chu who specialized in selling jewelry. On one occasion, he went to Qi State to sell jewelry.

Well, in order to sell jewelry, many small boxes are made of precious wood. The boxes are beautifully carved and decorated.

Look, let the box smell, and then put the jewelry in the box.

A man from Zheng saw that the box containing the orb was exquisite and beautiful. After asking the price, he bought one and opened the box.

Son, take out the treasure inside and return it to the jeweler.

(of an unknown person) achieved amazing results at the first attempt.

During the Warring States Period, there was a man named Chunyu Kun in the State of Qi. He is eloquent and good at conversation. He often matches something.

Interesting code words, to convince the monarch, so that the monarch is not only not angry, but also willing to accept.

At that time, the King of Qi was originally a wise monarch, but he became addicted to debauchery after he ascended the throne.

Regardless of national affairs, I only know how to drink and have fun every day, and I leave important things to the minister, but I don't care. because

As a result, politics was not on the right track, officials were corrupt and dereliction of duty, and governors of various countries also took the opportunity to invade, which made Qi on the verge of extinction.

On the brink of death.

Although some patriots in Qi were worried, they were all afraid of the King of Qi, and no one came out to persuade them.

Suggestions.

In fact, Qi Weiwang is a very clever man. He likes to say some argot to show his wisdom, although he doesn't like listening.

Other people's suggestions, but if they are correct, he will still accept them. When Chunyu Kun found out, he came up with a plan

Policy, ready to find a chance to persuade Qi Weiwang.

One day, Chunyu Kun met him and said, "Your Majesty, I want you to guess a riddle for Chen."

This state-owned juicy bird lived in the king's court for three years, but it didn't flap its wings or be named.

Just curled up aimlessly, guess, your majesty, what kind of bird is this? "

Qi Weiwang is a wise man. You can hear from his words that Chunyu Kun is satirizing himself, a country like a big bird.

Respect, but nothing, only pleasure. When he was no longer a fatuous king, so was Shen Yin.

He resolutely decided to turn over a new leaf, cheer up and do something vigorous, so he said to Chunyu Kun:

"Well, this big bird, you don't know, it doesn't fly, it doesn't rush into the sky, it doesn't make a sound, it makes a sound.

Will disturb everyone, you wait and see! "

From then on, Qi Weiwang stopped drinking and began to rectify the country. First of all, he called on officials all over the country to be loyal and responsible.

Give rewards; Those corrupt and incompetent people will be punished. As a result, the whole country quickly cheered and was everywhere.

Full of vigor and vitality.

On the other hand, he also set out to rectify the army and use strong force to establish the prestige of the country. When the governors of various countries heard the news,

Everyone was shocked, not only did they dare not invade again, but even returned all the land they had occupied to Qi.

What Qi Weiwang did was really a "blockbuster"!

Therefore, people later used the idiom "blockbuster" to describe a person with extraordinary talent, as long as he can.

If you use it well, once you play it out, you will often have amazing achievements.

Decorate yourself with borrowed feathers

During the Warring States period, when Chu was at its strongest, he was afraid of his general Zhao for the sake of the northern country at that time.

Xi's t-shirt, and feel strange. So he asked the North Korean minister why.

At that time, a minister named Jiang Yi told him the following story:

"Once upon a time, there was a tiger in a cave. Because he was hungry, he ran outside to look for food. When he came to a place,

When I was in the dense forest, I suddenly saw a fox walking in front of me. He thinks this is a golden opportunity.

Yes, he jumped over and caught him effortlessly.

But when it opened its mouth to eat the fox, the sly fox suddenly spoke:

Hum! Don't think that you are the king of beasts and dare to swallow me; You know, heaven and earth ordered me to be king.

Your Majesty, whoever eats me will be severely punished by heaven and earth. The tiger listened to the fox with a grain of salt.

However, when he tilted his head and saw the fox's arrogant and calm appearance, he was shocked. The original arrogance.

And I don't know when most of them disappeared. Even so, he thought to himself: I am one hundred.

The king of beasts, so any beast in the world will be afraid to see me. And he, it turned out, was ordered by Emperor Fengtian to rule us!

At this time, the fox saw that the tiger hesitated to eat, and knew that he had already believed him a little.

So he stood proudly, then pointed to the tiger's nose and said,' What, don't you believe what I said?

Really? Then come with me now, walk behind me and see if all the wild animals are scared out of their wits when they see me.

Running around. The tiger thought it was a good idea and did it.

So the fox swaggered ahead and the tiger followed carefully. They didn't leave much.

For a long time, I vaguely saw the depths of the forest, where many small animals were fighting for food, but when they found themselves walking behind the fox.

The tiger was in front of him, and he couldn't help but be frightened to disgrace and ran away.

At this moment, the fox turned to look at the tiger proudly. Seeing this situation, the tiger can't help but feel a little scared.

But he didn't know that wild animals were afraid of themselves, and he thought they were really afraid of foxes!

The cunning fox's plan succeeded, but his strength was entirely due to the tiger's disguise, which enabled him to threaten in a favorable situation at this moment.

Threatening the beast and the poor tiger to be fooled and not knowing it!

Therefore, the people in the north are afraid of Zhao Xi's shirt simply because the king's soldiers are in his hands, that is to say.

Say, what they are afraid of is actually the power of the king! "

From the above story, we can know that anyone oppresses others by virtue of the power of authority or the power of position.

Anyone who acts arrogantly can be described as "Smith".

Unite for evil purposes

Twenty-six years of King Xiang of Chu in the Spring and Autumn Period. Chu invaded Zheng. At that time, Zheng was as strong and weak as Chu, but it really didn't.

Those who could resist, as a result, Zheng suffered defeat, and even Zheng's was captured by the generals of Chu. The war is over.

Later, the Chu army was surrounded by the king of Chu, who wanted to take the credit for Zheng Jiezhi's capture as his own, saying that Zheng Jiezhi was his prisoner, so he wore a seal.

The two of them had an argument, and there was no way to solve it at the moment. Later, they asked Li Bo.

Be a just person and judge who is responsible for this.

Bozhou Plough's solution to the dispute was fair. He insisted that it was best to ask Zheng who was captured.

Wang. So I ordered someone to take Zheng to Bozhou Plough and explained the reason to him. Then I reached out my finger and used it to represent Chu Wangdi.

Gong Ziwei, put your finger on behalf of Chu, and then ask him who he captured. Zheng was put on the seal when he was captured, which is very

Hate him, pointed to his finger, said captured by childe outside. Therefore, Bozhou Plough decided that this was due to outside the childe.

The idiom "practise fraud" comes from this story; It means cheating in the game and turning right from wrong.

In today's society, this often happens: for example, someone has done something illegal and knows that he deserves it.

Can't escape the bad luck of being punished; So he secretly paid bribes, or asked relatives and friends to intercede and seek cover, which led to great things.

Small things, small things, still have to muddle through. People like this who participate in it and bend the law to get in the way can be said to be: "Go up."

Under his command. "

Retreat to avoid conflict

During the Spring and Autumn Period, Jin Xiangong listened to rumors, killed Prince Shen Sheng, and sent someone to arrest Shen Sheng's younger brother Zhong Er. When Zhong Er heard the news, he fled the State of Jin and forgot about it for more than ten years.

After many hardships, Zhong Er came to the State of Chu. King Chu Cheng thought that Zhong Er would make great achievements in the future, so he greeted him with state gifts and regarded him as a distinguished guest.

One day, the King of Chu gave a banquet in honor of Zhong Er, and the two chatted, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. Suddenly, the king of Chu asked Zhong Er, "If one day you return to the State of Jin and become a monarch, how can you repay me?" Zhong Er thought for a moment and said, "Beautiful women are waiting for you, precious silk, and you have a lot of rare bird feathers, ivory leather, and even more in Chu. What rare items does Jin Wang have? " The king of Chu said, "Your son is too modest. Having said that, you should show me something? " Zhong Er replied with a smile, "Thanks to you. If I can really return to China to be in power, I would like to get along well with your country. If one day, Jin Chu goes to war, I will definitely order the troops to retreat first (one house equals thirty miles). If I can't get your forgiveness, I will fight you again. "

Four years later, Zhong Er really returned to the State of Jin and became a monarch. This is the famous Jin Wengong in history. The state of Jin became stronger and stronger under his rule.

In 633 BC, the two armies of Chu and Jin fought. In order to fulfill his promise, Jin Wengong ordered the troops to retreat 90 miles and stay in Chengpu. When Chu Jun saw that 8 Jin J was retreating, he thought the other side was afraid and immediately pursued it. The Jin army took advantage of the weakness of the Chu army's pride in underestimating the enemy, concentrated its forces and defeated the Chu army greatly, and won the battle of Chengpu.

The story comes from Zuo Zhuan Xi Gong Twenty-two Years. This idiom means not arguing with others or making concessions on your own initiative.

Quench thirst by thinking of plum-masturbating with illusory hope

One summer, Cao Cao led his army to crusade against Zhang Xiu. The weather is unusually hot, the sun is like fire, and there is not a cloud in the sky. The troops walked on the winding mountain road, and the dense trees and rocks scorched by the sun on both sides made people breathless. By noon, the soldiers' clothes were soaked, the marching speed slowed down, and several weak soldiers fainted on the side of the road.

Cao Cao was worried that the marching speed was getting slower and slower, and that the fighter plane would be delayed. However, at present, tens of thousands of people can't even drink water. How can we speed up? He immediately called the guide and asked him quietly, "Is there a water source near here?" The guide shook his head and said, "The spring is on the other side of the valley. It's a long detour. " Cao Cao thought for a moment and said, "No, it's too late." He looked at the forest in front of him, thought for a moment, and said to the guide, "Don't say anything, I'll think of something." He knew that even if he ordered the troops to speed up at the moment, it would not help. A brainwave, the solution came. He grabbed the horse by the stomach and quickly rushed to the front of the team. Pointing at the front with a whip, he said, "Soldiers, I know there is a large area of Merlin in front, where the plums are big and delicious. Let's hurry around this hill and get to Meilin! " Hearing this, the soldiers seemed to eat it in their mouths, and their spirits were greatly boosted, and their pace could not help but accelerate a lot.

The story comes from a false prophecy in Shi Shuo Xin Yu. The idiom "looking at plum to quench thirst" is to comfort yourself or others with fantasy.
