In the Battle of Julu in 206 BC, Xiang Yu burned his bridges and defeated Zhang Han. This war has two meanings: first, the main force of Qin Jun was eliminated, and the peasant army took the initiative in the war; Second, Xiang Yu jumped from a general to the commander-in-chief of the allied forces, and the war situation began to change from a battle to a Chu-Han war.

This idiom comes from Three Kingdoms, Biography of Shu Wei and Biography of Xun Yu.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, after Cao Cao suppressed the occupation of Yanzhou (Y m 4 n) by the Yellow Scarf Army, he was ambitiously preparing to seize Xuzhou.

At that time, there was a gifted scholar named Xun Xuan in Yingchuan, Angelababy (now Xuchang, Henan), who moved to Jizhou to escape Dong Zhuo's rebellion and was regarded as a distinguished guest by Yuan Shao. Seeing that Yuan Shao could not achieve great things, he went to Cao Cao's door. Cao Cao was overjoyed and named him Sima. From then on, he followed Cao Cao to the north and made suggestions, which won Cao Cao's trust.

In A.D. 194, Tao Qian, a shepherd in Xuzhou, died of illness and gave Xuzhou to Liu Bei before he died. When the news came, Cao Cao couldn't hold back the heart of Xuzhou any longer and was busy sending troops to Xuzhou. Knowing Cao Cao's thoughts, Xun Yu said, "When Emperor Gaozu was in Guanzhong, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu owned Hanoi. They all have a solid foundation. They advanced enough to defeat the enemy and retreated enough to hold on, so they became a great cause. Now the general is attacking Xuzhou regardless of Yanzhou, and it is not enough for our army to stay in Yanzhou to obtain Xuzhou; Stay less, if Lyu3 bu4 moves at this time, it will not be enough to hold Yanzhou. In the end, Yanzhou must have lost it, and Xuzhou didn't take it. " He also pointed out, "Now is the wheat harvest season. I heard that Xuzhou has organized manpower to grab wheat outside the city and transport it to the city. This shows that they are ready. Once the news comes out, they will definitely strengthen their fortifications, transfer all materials, and make all preparations to meet us (the original text is:' Today's wheat harvest in the East, it will be difficult for the generals to clear the field'). In this way, your military forces are really gone, the city can't be captured, and nothing can be obtained. Within ten days, your army will be defeated without fighting. "

Cao Cao listened to Xun Xuan and admired him very much. From then on, he concentrated his forces and quickly defeated Lu Bu. Later, he defeated Liu Bei and occupied Xuzhou.

"Fixing the wall to clear the field": Fixing the wall is to strengthen the city wall and fortress; Clearing the field is to collect food and property in the wild. It is untenable to reinforce fortifications and transfer all residents and materials in the four fields so that the enemy can neither break into houses nor take anything. This is a way to confront the superior enemy.

This idiom comes from Jia Yi's On Qin in the Western Han Dynasty, which is about the peasant uprising led by Chen Sheng and Guangwu at the end of Qin Dynasty.

In July 209 BC, Yangcheng (now southeast of Dengfeng, Henan) local officials sent two officers and 900 poor people to guard the border in Yuyang (now Miyun County, Beijing). The two officers also chose two able-bodied men from among the able-bodied men to be the captains of chariots, and put them in charge of the rest of the able-bodied men. One of the two captains is Chen Sheng, a farm worker. The other is the poor peasants' guangwu. They didn't know each other before, but now they meet and share a common destiny, which soon makes them good friends.

Chen Sheng, Guangwu and his party were desperate to get to the north, and did not dare to delay. Because according to the decree of the Qin dynasty, if you miss the date, you will be beheaded. However, they had just walked for a few days when they arrived in osawa Township (now southwest of Su County, Anhui Province). It rained heavily, so they had to put up their tents until it cleared up. It just keeps raining, and the date is delayed. Chen Sheng discussed with Guangwu: "Even if you leave, you will die if you miss the date." Running away and being caught by the government is also death. It's a death anyway. Let's rebel together, overthrow Qin Ershi and kill the people. "

Guangwu is also a man of insight. He agreed with Chen Sheng and called on the whole world to attack Qin Ershi through the titles of Fu Su, the prince killed by Qin Ershi, and Xiang Yan, the former general of Chu who won the support of the masses.

So Chen Sheng and Guangwu took several confidants, hacked two policemen to death first, and then held their heads up to explain to everyone that if they rebelled, they would die in vain. These hundreds of people suddenly expressed their willingness to give their lives to work with Bobby Chen and Guangwu. Everyone took chopping down trees as a weapon, held high bamboo poles as a banner, and swore to heaven that Qi Xin would work together to overthrow Qin Ershi and avenge Xiang Yan, the general of Chu. Everyone also elected Chen Sheng and Guangwu as leaders and occupied osawa Township in one fell swoop. As soon as the farmers in osawa heard that Bobby Chen and Guangwu had rebelled against the tyranny of the Qin Dynasty, the young children came to the camp to join the army with hoes, harrows, poles and sticks.

People simplify the phrase "cutting firewood for soldiers and raising the banner" to the idiom "raising the banner", which means holding high the banner of righteousness and rising up against it. More generally refers to the people's uprising.

Petition: The United States wants to establish a new regime with American model by overthrowing Saddam Hussein's regime as a model for the Arab world. Who will follow suit?
