Juan) went to the Kingdom of Wei.
The king of the Wei Kingdom admired Pang
Juan's ability to lead and train the army, and (Pang Juan) became the general
of the Wei Kingdom.
A few years later, he went to the Wei
Kingdom to find (Pang Juan), and he hoped (Pang Juan) would introduce him to
the king of the Wei Kingdom.

years, the simple friendship between the two of them had changed.
Because he is smarter than (Pang Juan), his
academic performance in school is better than (Pang Juan).
(Pang Juan) worried that he would be
replaced by (Sun Bin).
So (Pang Juan) set up a trap to frame him.

chaotic era. Many cruel punishments are carried out in the various kingdoms.
He was found guilty and his legs were
chopped off.
He had tattoos on his face, and anyone who
saw the tattoos on his face knew that he was once a criminal.
Everyone dared not trust him, and everyone
was reluctant to approach him.

ideals and hopes.

Juan).

孫龐鬥智(The duel between Sun Bin and Pang
Juan)
孫武是中國歷史上最著名的軍事家之一。他所寫的孫子兵法影響了後代許多人。
他有一個子孫的名字叫做(孫臏)，(孫臏)也是一個著名的軍事家。
歷史書上記載了一個有關於他的故事。
他生活在中國的戰國時代。
中國的戰國時代，中國分裂成20多個王國。
在這20多個王國'中，有7個王國比較強大。
這些王國之間經常為了爭奪土地與資源而發生戰爭。
他年輕的時候曾經跟其他許多同學一起向一些已經退休的將軍學習如何打仗與訓練軍隊。
這些同學中，他有幾個很好的朋友。
其中一個的名字叫做(龐涓)。
他們兩個人畢業後，(龐涓)到了魏王國。
魏王國的國王很敬佩龐涓的領導與訓練軍隊的能力，(龐涓)當上魏王國的將軍。
幾年後，他到了魏王國去找(龐涓)，他希望(龐涓)將他介紹給魏王國的國王認識。
但是他沒有想到，經過了這幾年，他們兩個人原本很單純的友情已經發生改變。
由於他比(龐涓)更聰明，他在學校時的學習成績比(龐涓)更好。
(龐涓)擔心自己被(孫臏)取代。
所以(龐涓)就設下一個圈套誣陷。
中國的戰國時代是一個混亂的時代。各個王國中實施著許多殘酷的刑罰。
他被判定有罪，他的雙腿被砍斷。
他的臉上被刺青，任何人只要看到他臉上的刺青，就知道他曾經是一個罪犯。
所有人都不敢信任他，所有人都不願意接近他。
但是他沒有因此頹廢而且失去理想與希望。
他潛逃到齊王國，他後來成齊王國的一個著名的軍事將領。
幾年後，他率領齊王國的軍隊打敗由(龐涓)所帶領的魏王國的軍隊。
他成功的報仇，他殺了(龐涓)。
他與(龐涓)的故事在中國，幾乎每個人小時候都聽過。
這句成語直接翻譯的意思是孫臏與龐涓的對決。
這句成語被用來比喻原本兩個人是好朋友但後來這兩個人變成仇人。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
你有沒有曾經的好朋友現在卻變成仇人的呢?你們之間發生了甚麼事呢?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
