BEIJING, June 23 (Xinhua) Hong Kong's Wen Wei Po article said that the hardness of a certain part of our body is second only to diamonds, that is, enamel covering the outside of our teeth. Although this kind of enamel is not thick, it is very hard and is the hardest tissue in the human body. As the saying goes, it is not easy to bite your teeth without deep hatred.
The article said that there is an allusion called Zhang Xun chewing his teeth, which tells the story of an upright man who lived with his teeth in history.
During the Anshi Rebellion in the Tang Dynasty, An Lushan was arrogant, and wherever the rebels went, they burned, killed and looted. An Qingxu, the son of An Lushan, sent general Yin to attack Suiyang with hundreds of troops. It was Cheng who was guarding Suiyang at that time. Seeing that the enemy was fierce, he had to hold on to the city. When commanding the battle, Zhang Xun was impassioned and shouted slogans to boost morale. Due to excessive anger, his eyes were chapped and bleeding, his teeth rattled and he bit a lot.
Without foreign aid, Zhang Xun's army was besieged by rebels for a long time, and its soldiers starved to death, making it almost impossible to persist.
At this time, Zhang Xun introduced his concubines and said to the soldiers: We have been short of food for a long time, but our loyalty has not diminished. It's a pity that we can't cut our own meat for everyone to eat. Do we have the heart to have a concubine and sit and watch our soldiers starve?
The soldiers under the stage suddenly fried the pot: can't kill! Kill us and don't eat! ……
Zhang Xun didn't care so much, so he chopped up the concubines, cooked a big pot of soup and forced the soldiers to eat.
Imagine, can a concubine fill the stomachs of so many soldiers guarding the city? Is Zhang Xun doing this to buy off the morale or to boost morale?
Later, Suiyang City fell, and Zhang Xun became a prisoner. Yin, the enemy general who was shot blind in one eye by Zhang Xun's men, certainly heard the story of Zhang Xun biting his teeth. He leaned over to Zhang Xun and glared at him: I heard that every time you fight, you have to crack your eyes and crush your teeth. Why bother?
Zhang Xun said: I want to swallow you traitors, but unfortunately I can't! Yin was still a little dubious, so he pried its mouth open with a big knife and saw that there were only three or four teeth left inside.
Zhang Xun called Yin a pig and a dog. Yin is a generous man. He is not angry. Instead, he was influenced by his loyalty and decided to treat him well. But his men kept telling him: don't bother. This man is loyal, loyal and can't be used by you. Plus, he won the morale, and he won't stay long! Yin was moved to kill her.
Mr. Han Yu has different opinions on Zhang Xun's killing concubines to reward soldiers and strengthen the morale of the army. He specially wrote an article to research, arguing that Zhang Xun's "Kill my beloved concubine" is not in conformity with the facts. In fact, Zhang Xun's concubine committed suicide when she saw the situation was critical.
Mr Han Yu somewhat beautifies Zhang Xun. A person who can bite his teeth must have a harder heart than his teeth. In a society where men are superior to women, do or die, the environment is forcing alienation, and Zhang Xun should kill concubines.
Mr. Lu Xun said: Ruthlessness may not be a true hero, so how can Reiko Kobayakawa not be a husband? From the perspective of human nature, Zhang Xun is not a real hero.
