Seeing that Zhao's revenge had been reported and Chen's grievance had been settled, he refused to enjoy the splendor alone and drew his sword to kill himself. After his death, he was buried with Gongsun in a tomb, which was later called "Er Yi Tomb". Their fame has been passed down from generation to generation. Qi Weiwang likes betting on horses. Every time he played against General Tian Ji, Tian Ji lost to Wang Wei, so he also lost a lot of gambling money. When Sun Bin, a guest from Tian Ji, learned of the situation, he gave Tian Ji a plan: let the inferior horse in Tian Ji compete with the excellent horse in Wang Wei first and lose one game first; Let Tian Ji's middle-class horse compete with Wang Wei's lower-class horse and middle-class horse respectively. Tian Ji will win the last two races, so he can win the whole race.
Qi Weiwang and Tian Ji bet on Marseille, and Tian Ji adopted Sun Bin's plan. Sure enough, Tian Ji finally won the Marseille bet and rich gambling money. Wang Wei learned that Tian Ji won because of the coup in Sun Bin, and appreciated his talent. Later, Sun Bin was appointed as a military adviser to help Tian Ji fight.
Sun Bin's horse betting strategy, first voluntarily giving up the first game, then fully grasping the disadvantages of Wei Ruyun's two games and giving full play to the advantages of Tian Ji's last two games, won the final victory. Sun Bin won an all-round victory at a small cost in the first game, which fully explained the connotation of "Li Ying". In the sixth episode of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao, who was chasing Dong Zhuo, was ambushed by Xu Rong and fled in defeat. Cao Cao was shot with an arrow by Xu Rong, and then stabbed to dismount by two small soldiers. Just when Cao Hong arrived, he killed two soldiers, and Cao Cao took them for Cao Hong. Cao Cao said, "I'm dying, my dear brother, go quickly!" " Hongdao: "Get on the horse quickly! Hong is willing to go. " Cao Cao said, "What will you do if the thieves catch up?" Hong said, "There can be no floods and no public affairs." Cao Cao said, "If I am reborn, so can you." When Cao Cao got on the horse, Hong took off his armor and followed the horse with a knife.
This is Li's rigid plan in Cao Hong. At this moment of great defeat and escape, two people and one horse have to sacrifice one person to save the other's life. Cao Hong knew very well that his weight was much smaller than that of Cao Cao. If he has to live alone, Cao Cao's life value is obviously much higher than his own. Therefore, Cao Hong said, "There can be no flood and no justice." Such a famous saying did not hesitate to give up his horse and risked his life to save Cao Cao's life. Yue Zhongqi is the son of the family. His father, Yue Shenglong, is a magistrate in Sichuan. He studied the art of war from an early age, and his martial arts were superb.
Yue Zhongqi put down the Tibetan rebellion with Xu Yun 14, the son of Emperor Kangxi. Yue Zhongqi led 4,000 troops to Chamdo first. Yue Zhongqi learned through spies that all tribes here have rebelled, and the Junggar rebels have sent heavy troops to March 8th Bridge.
The March 8th Bridge is the first pass to Tibet. Once the rebels want to destroy the bridge, it is more difficult for the Qing army to enter the customs than to ascend to heaven.
When the Qing army brigade led by General Xu Yun was still thousands of miles away, Yue Zhongqi had only a few thousand troops here. Hard resistance is impossible. So he put forward a plan to pretend to be the enemy.
Yue Zhongqi personally selected 30 elite soldiers in the military camp to practice Tibetan, wear Tibetan clothes and dress up as Tibetan soldiers. When everything was ready, he personally led his troops and galloped away to the post of Junggar messenger. Dressed realistically, this Indiana Jones successfully passed the rebel checkpoint, sneaked into the messenger's residence, and captured the Junggar rebel messenger in one fell swoop.
Yue Zhongqi elaborated on the treason of Junggar leaders, ordered the messenger to be beheaded, and sent someone to give the head of the traitor's messenger to the traitor. Warn them that if they surrender, let bygones be bygones; If you work hard, you will get the same result. The leader of the rebel generals was dumbfounded, thinking that the magic soldiers had descended from heaven, and they all expressed their obedience.
Yue Zhongqi successfully used the ingenious idea of "Li Ying", which not only saved the March 8th Bridge, the main throat of Tibet, but also defeated the rebels without bloodshed and achieved an unexpected victory. At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, Tian Chengzi, the doctor of Qi, monopolized the power. At that time, Qi was faced with internal troubles and foreign invasion. The internal people were very angry and the external governors refused to accept it. Tian Chengzi, because of his "improper reputation" when he came to power, has been suffering from no good solution.
It never rains but it pours. The State of Yue claimed that it had usurped the power of the vassal and sent troops to attack the State of Qi. Tian Chengzi a look panic hands and feet, quickly called his staff to discuss countermeasures. Some people say, "It's cruel to invade Vietnam. Although the strength of our country is not as strong as Yue, we can mobilize the whole army and the people to meet the enemy together. " Someone said, "At present, China's people are floating, and many subjects haven't had time to enjoy the king's favor. If the whole city is dispatched, I am afraid it will be difficult to win the hearts of the people and it will be difficult to convince the public. " Some suggestions: "Why not follow the example of other countries and cede several cities to Yue, or avoid fighting?" Tian Chengzi thinks this is not a good way to defeat the enemy. He wondered in his heart: the whole city sent out to meet the enemy, which not only consumed too much national strength, but also led the people to fight only by a group of warriors who were good at fighting, and they might not win, and their position was not stable. If it is not good, there will be a situation of turning back. Giving up this city is not the best policy. Give up the city and lose the pool as soon as you come to power. It is difficult to establish prestige in the future, and there will be endless future troubles.
Just as he was thinking about it, his brother Wan Zi offered a plan and said, "I ask your majesty to allow me to lead a group of wise ministers out of the city to meet the enemy. If you want to meet the enemy, you must really fight. If you fight, you will lose. Not only will you lose, but you will all die. " So that we can retreat and save the country. "When this statement came out, everyone was shocked. Tian Chengzi asked inexplicably, "It seems permissible to go out to fight, but the war must be defeated, and the defeated must die. I don't understand this. Why is this? The son calmly replied, "Now that you have occupied Qi, the people don't understand your ability to govern the country, and they can't see your achievements. Some people talk privately that you are a traitor and may not be willing to fight for you. Now that the state of Yue has invaded, many wise men think that we have suffered humiliation and are eager to send troops to fight. In my opinion, it is very worrying that we are in Qi. " "B-brother is right, but why do you have to take the initiative to die to save the country? Is there no other way? "Tian Chengzi is still confused about her lovely and brave brother. Wan Zi said, "Yue sent troops only to shake his prestige in front of his ministers and gain a reputation for justice. Besides, with his present strength, it is impossible to completely annex us. I led a group of wise men to send troops to meet the enemy and died in defeat. This is called martyrdom. Seeing that the king's brother was killed in Vietnam, our country's purpose of "teaching" was achieved. Those who died with me were also filial to their country, and those who didn't die didn't dare to come to Qi again. Only in this way can China's people be stable, so in my opinion, this is the only way to save the country. "
Tian Chengzi cried while listening, so he had to listen to his brother's advice and see him off while crying. Sure enough, Wan Zi was martyred and saved Qi.
In this story, after weighing the pros and cons of all aspects, Wan Zi decided to die for himself and protect the national security, while Li was stiff, which made Qi stable.
