"If you can't bear it a little, you must make a great plan", which means that people should be patient, patient and tolerant in everything, and don't lose their temper and vent their anger for a little thing, which will delay major events. The levee of a thousand miles collapsed in the ant nest, and many major events were destroyed because of small things. Now people say that "details determine success or failure".
Han Xin endured the humiliation of his legs in history, which is a famous example. At that time, with his skill, it was very simple to kill the villain who bullied him, but he did not resist, but obediently drilled through the villain's leg and made the onlookers laugh at him as a coward.
Han Xin is not afraid of schoolyard bullies, but he knows that his ambition is not to fight with others. If you kill someone because of this, it will not help to achieve great things except exporting evil spirits and making others fear themselves. Maybe there will be no all-powerful North Korean general in the future.
