After he received the letter, he was very anxious and distressed, so he went to his brother.

He begged his brother to order the 100,000 soldiers to rescue Zhao Kingdom.

But his brother was too afraid of the threat from the Qin Kingdom, and his brother did not agree to his request.

He just sat in the carriage and waited, he didn't urge (Hou Ying), and he didn't show an impatient expression either.

His expression was natural and pleasant.

 

Many people were curious to see this strange situation from a distance.

These people wondered why the most famous nobleman in the kingdom (Wei Wuji) personally drove a car to this area and respectfully waited for the poor old man who usually served as the gatekeeper at the city gate.

This idiom is usually used when receiving guests.

 

Dear friends, what inspiration or thoughts do you have after listening to this story?

If you were Wei Wuji, would you wait patiently (Hou Ying)? Would you despise a person just because he is poor?

I hope this story will give you something new to gain.

Takes a long time(曠日持久)

 

Takes a long time(曠日持久)

 

During the Warring States Period of China, there was a famous general in the Kingdom of Zhao, whose name was (Zhao She).

His story is recorded in the history books.

 

In 270 BC, he led the Zhao Kingdom's army to defeat the Qin Kingdom's army, and he became a famous general of the Zhao Kingdom.

 

A few years after he became a general, something happened.

The Kingdom of Yan sent an army to attack the Kingdom of Zhao.

 

The king of the Zhao Kingdom listened to the proposal of the Prime Minister (Zhao Sheng) and spent a lot of money to hire a famous general of the Qi Kingdom to help defend against the Yan Kingdom's attack. The general's name is (Tian Dan).

 

He got angry when he heard the news, he went to see (Zhao Sheng).

 

He said to (Zhao Sheng).

Why do we spend so much money to hire (Tian Dan) to assist us?

There are many wise and capable generals in our kingdom.

If you put me in command of the army, I promise I can defeat them in 100 days, and I can in turn take many of their territories.

 

(Zhao Sheng) replied.

We have made a decision and we will not change our decision.

 

he said angrily.

I think your decision is wrong, so I'm going to explain my point in more depth.

 

(Tian Dan) once led the Qi Kingdom's army to defeat the Yan Kingdom's army under very difficult circumstances. So you think that only he can resist the Yan Kingdom's army, so you will hire him to be the commander-in-chief of our army.

 

If he is the commander-in-chief of our army, I think there are only two outcomes.

The first is that he is not qualified for the position, he will be defeated.

The second is that he can hold a position and he will win the battle.

 

(Zhao Sheng) nodded.

There is really no third possibility.

 

He says.

If it is the second case, do you think he will use the fastest time and the least cost to defeat the opponent?

Or will he fight a protracted battle with the opponent that will cost a lot of time, manpower, and money?

 

(Zhao Sheng) did not answer.

 

He says.

He is from the Qi Kingdom, so he will definitely not stand in our position to fight for our interests. He will give priority to the interests of the Qi Kingdom.

 

He will certainly lead the war to a protracted war that will take years to fight.

When the kingdoms of Yan and Zhao were greatly weakened due to this war, the Qi Kingdom could take this opportunity to become stronger and stronger.

 

(Zhao Sheng) did not answer.

His opinion was ultimately not adopted.

 

A few years later, the outcome of this war was just as he predicted, Zhao Kingdom spent a lot of money and manpower, but only achieved a small victory.

 

This idiom means that it took a long time.

 

Dear friends, what inspiration or thoughts do you have after listening to this story?

Why do you think Zhao Sheng didn't listen to him? Do you think this story reminds you of that war?

I hope this story will give you something new to gain.

A dignitary(修劍拄頤)

 

Tian Dan was a very famous general in the Qi Kingdom during the Warring States Period in China.

His story is recorded in the history books.

 

Once he led an army to attack a neighboring kingdom, the kingdom of Di.

On the eve of his departure, he had dinner with a good friend of his.

The name of this good friend is (Lu Zhonglian).

 

(Lu Zhonglian) said to him.

I think you will fail this time.

 

he said with a smile.

I once led the army of Qi Kingdom to defeat Yan Kingdom in the most difficult situation. Your judgment is wrong and I will not fail.

 

He set out with his army, and after three months he was unable to defeat the Kingdom of Di.

The soldiers were killed and wounded, and he was terrified.

He remembered what Lu Zhonglian said, and he sent soldiers to bring Lu Zhonglian to the front.

 

He said to Lu Zhonglian.

You once told me that I would fail this time when I sent troops. Why did you say that at that time?

I want to hear your opinion.

 

Lu Zhonglian said.

There is a song recently that will answer your question.

You wear a hat that can only be worn by a huge general, and you are equipped with a long sword that can only be worn by a general.

You attacked the Kingdom of Di but could not capture it, and the soldiers on the front line suffered heavy casualties.

 

You recall that when you were the mayor of (Jimo) city, you worked with the soldiers and were on the front lines together.

You have the determination to defend the kingdom of Qi, and all the soldiers are willing to sacrifice their lives for the kingdom of Qi.

So you can defeat the Yan Kingdom.

 

Over the past few years, after you became the most powerful general in the Qi Kingdom, you focused on managing your property every day, and you often went out to play with your noble friends.

You are not as determined to win as you used to be, you are no longer standing with your soldiers, and that is why I think you will lose this war.

 

After listening, he said after a few minutes of silence.

Thank you, I know what I should do.

 

the next day. He personally went to the forefront, and he inspired all the soldiers of the Qi Kingdom.

In the next war, he stayed in the most dangerous places on the front line to fight with all the soldiers, and he issued orders in time to dispatch the army.

A few weeks later, he led the army to victory in the war.

 

The direct translation of this idiom means that his sword is long enough to touch his cheek.

This idiom means a dignitary.

Have you forgotten that you should maintain the spirit of hard work and struggle because of your current wealth? Have you become arrogant and arrogant because of your success?

I hope this story will give you something new to gain.

Tian Dan recovers the kingdom of Qi(田單復國)

 

During the Warring States Period in China, the troops of the Yan Kingdom captured more than 70 cities in the Qi Kingdom.

In the Qi Kingdom, only two cities (Juxian) and (Jimo) were left that had not been captured by the Yan Kingdom.

 

At this critical moment, (Tian Dan) took over as the mayor of (Jimo) City, and he also served as the War Commander of (Jimo) City.

 

He uses a lot of special tactics, he uses psychological warfare and espionage warfare to influence the enemy.

 

Three years after he took over as mayor, he thought the time was ripe for a counter-offensive, and there was only one last thing he had to do, and that was to let the Yan Kingdom's army completely relax its vigilance.

 

He sent messengers to negotiate with the generals of the Yan kingdom.

The messenger brought 1000 pieces of gold. The messenger said to the general of the Yan Kingdom.

 

We want to surrender.

The 1,000 pieces of gold were raised by all the citizens of our city.

We take this gold as a gift, hope you will treat us well after we surrender so that we can live in peace

The generals of the Yan Kingdom happily accepted the gold.

 

That night, many soldiers of the Yan Kingdom also drank and celebrated. These soldiers have been away from their hometown for a long time, and they are very happy to hear that the war is coming to an end.

 

In the middle of the night that night, the soldiers of the Kingdom of Yan suddenly heard a loud noise in their sleep. When the soldiers ran out of the tent, they saw many red monsters rushing towards them.

 

The soldiers of the Yan Kingdom did not know what was going on. They saw their comrades crying and shouting in panic. They saw many comrades being hit and killed. They didn't even have time to put on their clothes, so they quickly fled the camp.

 

Where did these monsters come from?

It turns out that this is a new tactic created by (Tian Dan).

 

He requisitioned all the cattle in (Jimo) city, there were more than 1,000 cattle in total.

He ordered the soldiers to tie sharp knives to the two horns of each cattle.

He made many red robes with dragon totems on them, and put these robes on the cattle.

 

He had dug several secret passages in advance, and he drove the cattle out of the passages at night.

He tied greased reeds to each cattle's tail and set them on fire.

The fire on the reeds tied to the tails of the cattle burned the tails of the cattle, and the cattle rushed furiously and furiously towards the camp of the army of the Yan kingdom.

 

Following these cattle were 5,000 strong soldiers of the Qi Kingdom, and in the city (Jimo) behind the soldiers, all the citizens beat the bronze utensils in their hands and shouted loudly.

 

The well-disciplined Yan Kingdom's army disintegrated, and the generals who led them were killed.

Tian Dan led the 5,000 heroic soldiers of the Qi Kingdom to annihilate the most powerful main force of the Yan Kingdom.

 

In the next few weeks, he led these soldiers to recover many lost territories of the Qi Kingdom one after another, and the people of the Qi Kingdom in many occupied areas also responded to their army. The number of people in his army became more and more day by day. On the contrary, The number of the Yan Kingdom's army is decreasing day by day.

 

A few months later, he recaptured almost all of the lost cities, and the Qi Kingdom was spared its demise.

 

This idiom means that Tian Dan recovers the kingdom of Qi.

This idiom is used to encourage us not to give up in desperate situations.

How is your life now? If your current living situation is not good, have you tried every means to improve your current situation?

He ordered all citizens of (Jimo) city to make sacrifices to their ancestors every day, and to use grain instead as offerings. These grains attract many birds to come and peck.

 

He sent several spies to the Yan Kingdom's army to spread rumors. Therefore, many soldiers of the Yan Kingdom believe that this is because the gods are helping (Jimo) city, so there are so many birds circling over (Jimo) city every day.

 

He ordered an ordinary soldier to pretend to be a great prophet.

He said to all the citizens. This great prophet can receive the will of God, and he will help us win against our enemies.

 

The spies he sent to Yan Kingdom's army spread two new rumors, and the generals who led Yan Kingdom's army believed both rumors.

 

The general of the Yan Kingdom ordered that the noses of all Qi's captives be cut off, and that all the bodies in the cemetery outside the city be dug up and burned.

 

Citizens saw the noses of their compatriots cut off, and the citizens saw the bodies of their deceased relatives being dug up and set on fire.

These two things aroused the anger of all (Jimo) citizens.

 

All the citizens are actively fighting to join the army, and the fighting spirit of all the citizens is very high.

 

After doing these things, he believed that the time for a counter-offensive was ripe, and there was only one last thing he had to do, and that was to let the Yan Kingdom's army completely relax its vigilance.

 

There was a very famous historian in the Han Dynasty in China, and his name was (Sima Qian).

(Sima Qian) In the history book he wrote, he praised (Tian Dan).

In the battle between the two armies, in addition to confronting the opponent head-on, they must also be able to use special tactics to launch surprise attacks.
