 (161 AD - 199 AD)

His surname is (Gongsun), his parents gave him the name (Zan), and when he grew up his friends called him (Bogui). He was born in Hebei Province, China.

 

 

It means fair. It means justice. It means male. It is also one of the Chinese family names.

It means grandson. It is also a Chinese surname.

It means imperfect jade.

It means the eldest of several brothers. It is also a Chinese surname.

A kind of jade utensil used by ancient emperors or princes during ceremonies.

 

 

He was a famous warlord in the late years of China's New Dynasty, and his story is recorded in history books.

 

At the end of the New Dynasty, warlords across China relied on their own military power to divide their respective spheres of influence. These warlords fought many wars with each other.

He was born during this time.

 

He was handsome and spoke with a loud voice.

His wife's father was a provincial governor at that time. Because of his wife's relationship, he entered the central government as a low-ranking official.

 

His job was to drive a carriage for a provincial governor. One day the governor told him.

The king has sent me to take up a post in southern China. You can choose whether you want me to go to southern China or not.

 

The climate in southern China is very different from that in northern China. South China is closer to the equator, has a humid environment and it rains a lot.

Because many parts of southern China were undeveloped at that time, there were many virgin forests, and there were many poisonous animals and plants in the forests.

 

Officials at that time did not like to be sent to southern China because a high proportion of officials who were sent to southern China would die there from illness or accident.

 

After thinking about it for a few days, he decided to follow the provincial governor to southern China.

 

Because of his decision, the governor thought he was a very loyal employee, so the governor trusted and liked him very much.

 

Later, when the provincial governor returned to the capital to take office, the provincial governor promoted him and he became a mid-level official in the central government.

 

The king sent him to the north of China, where he became a general. He began to master military power and learn military knowledge.

 

One day he was on horseback, patrolling the border with a dozen cavalrymen.

Suddenly, they encountered an armed attack from a tribe in northern China that bordered the Eastern Han Kingdom. He and the cavalry he led were surrounded by the enemy. The situation was very dangerous.

 

He said confidently to the cavalry he led.

We are surrounded, and we must have the determination not to fear death in order to break through the enemy's siege.

All of you follow me and attack the enemy bravely. I believe we can all return to our camp alive.

 

Having said these words, he mounted his horse and charged the enemy first, followed closely by his men.

After a fierce battle, they finally broke through the enemy's siege.

 

Dear friend, what inspirations or thoughts do you have after listening to this story?

If you were him, would you follow the provincial governor to take office in southern China? If you were him, after being surrounded by enemies, would you choose to surrender or bravely face the enemies?

I hope this story can give you some new insights.

他是中國的新王朝末年的一個著名的軍閥,歷史書上記載了一個他的故事。

 

中國的新王朝末年,中國各地的軍閥仰仗著各自的軍事力量劃分出屬於各自的勢力範圍,這些軍閥彼此之間發生了許多戰爭。

他就出生在這個年代。

 

他長得很英俊,他講話的聲音很宏亮。

他的妻子的父親是當時的一個省長,他因為他的妻子的關係,所以進入了中央政府內擔任一個職位很低的官員。

 

他的工作是幫當時的一個省長駕駛馬車,有一天,這個省長對他說。

國王派遣我到中國的南方就職,你可以自己選擇要不要我去中國的南方。

 

中國的南方的氣候與中國北方的氣候差距很大,中國的南方比較靠近赤道,環境潮濕而且常常下雨。

由於當時的中國南方很多地方尚未開發,因此有很多原始的森林,森林中有很多有毒的動物與有毒的植物。

 

當時的官員都不喜歡被派任到中國的南方,因為被派遣到中國的南方任職的官員們,有很高的比例會因為生病或者意外死在中國的南方。

 

他思考了幾天後,他決定跟著這個省長一起到中國的南方就職。

 

因為他的這個決定,所以這個省長認為他是一個非常忠心的員工,因此這個省長非常的信任他並且喜歡他。

 

後來這個省長又回到首都就職,這個省長就提拔他,他成了中央政府內的中級官員。

 

國王將他派任到中國的北方,他成了一個將軍的幕僚,他開始掌握軍事權力與學習軍事知識。

 

有一天,他騎著馬,他帶著十幾個騎兵在邊界巡邏。

突然間,他們遭遇了中國北方與東漢王國接壤的一個部落的武力攻擊,他與他帶帶領的騎兵們被敵人包圍,當時的情勢非常危險。

 

他很有信心地對著他所帶領的騎兵們說。

我們已經被包圍,我們必須抱持著不怕死亡的決心才有可能突破敵人的包圍。

你們大家跟著我勇敢地去攻打敵人,我相信我們都可以活著回到我們的陣營內。

 

說完這些話後,他就騎著馬率先衝向敵人,他的部下們緊緊跟隨著他一起向前衝。

他們經過一番激烈的戰鬥後,他們終於突破敵人的包圍。

 

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。

你如果是他,你會跟著省長一起到中國的南方就職嗎?你如果是他,你被敵人包圍後你會選擇投降還是勇敢的面對敵人呢?

我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
