Ancient times:
Sima Qian: The most important deed is to write the first biographical general history in the history of our country, "Historical Records"
Defended Li Ling and suffered corruption
p>
He endured humiliation and persevered in writing historical records, with a rigorous and serious attitude, and the spirit of recording dared to reveal the likes and dislikes of the rulers of the dynasty. The detailed dates of Sima Qian's birth and death are unknown in history. The recent scholar Wang Guowei's "Tai Shi Gong Xing Nian Kao" believes that Sima Qian was born in 145 BC (the fifth year of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty), and another theory is that he was born in 135 BC (the sixth year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty); he died around BC He died in 86 BC (the first year of Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty), one said that he died in 87 BC (the second year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty), and another said that he died in 90 BC (the third year of Emperor Wu's Zhenghe reign of the Han Dynasty). It is said that Sima Qian's family was a historian and astronomer passed down from generation to generation from Tang and Yu to Zhou Dynasty. Sima Cuo was a famous general who conquered Shu during the reign of King Qin Hui, and Sima Chang was an iron official of Qin Shihuang. When Sima Qian's father Sima Tan became the Taishi Ling of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he restored the ancestral history of being a historian.
Youngster's career
Sima Qian's boyhood was "the sun of farming and herding rivers and mountains". Sima Qian grew up in this natural environment of "mountains surrounded by water, mosaic and winding" ("Hancheng County Chronicles Preface"). He was not only influenced by the pure and beautiful atmosphere of the mountains and rivers, but also had some experience in folk life.
At the age of 10, Sima Qian followed his father to the capital Chang'an, where he had to learn from the old doctor Fu Sheng and the great Confucian Kong Anguo. His family had a deep academic background, and he was inspired and induced by famous teachers, and he benefited a lot. At this time, when the Han Dynasty was powerful, economically prosperous, and culturally prosperous, Zhang Qian was envoyed to the Western Regions, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing defeated the Xiongnu, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty established Yuefu. It was also a time when Sima Qian was rich in knowledge and enthusiasm in the capital.
Traveling in the prime of life
Bust of Sima Qian[3] Sima Qian began to travel when he was about 20 years old - "traveling south to the Yangtze River and Huaihe River, going up to Kuaiji, exploring Yu's cave, peeping into doubts, and floating around." He traveled to Yuan and Xiang, crossed Wen and Si in the north, talked about the capitals of Qi and Lu, and observed the legacy of Confucius. He went to his hometown of Zou and Yi, and was trapped in Po, Xue and Pengcheng. After returning to Chang'an, he returned to Chu. As the emperor's valet, his main duties were to guard the palace entrance, manage the carriages and rides, and travel with the emperor. He followed Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to Pingliang and Kongtong, and also served as an envoy to Bashu. The furthest south he reached was Kunming. According to Sima Qian himself, he used to "farm and herd the sun of rivers and mountains" when he was a boy, which means that he once engaged in some agricultural labor in his hometown during his childhood. Later, his father Sima talked about Chang'an and became the Taishi Ling. Sima Qian followed his father to Chang'an. Then under his father's guidance, he studied hard and laid a solid cultural foundation. He worshiped many famous teachers as teachers. Sima Qian's family, his family, has been a historian for generations, and as a historian, he has the responsibility to record the words and deeds of emperors and sages, and also has the responsibility to collect and organize the world's relics and ancient events. He also has the responsibility to discuss people through narrative and make contributions to the history of the time. Rulers provide reference. Then his father Sima Tan was determined to organize thousands of years of Chinese nation's history and tried to write a historical work of unprecedented scale. It is to write a history book. This has been an ideal since his father. After his father became the Taishi Ling, he began to collect and read historical materials to prepare for the compilation of history. However, Sima Tan felt that he was getting old and that he did not have enough time, energy, or knowledge to complete a historical work independently. Therefore, Sima Tan had high hopes for his son Sima Qian, hoping that he could participate as soon as possible. In fact, such an ambition will finally be realized.
Collection of Sima Qian's portraits (12 photos) So, Sima Qian began to travel thousands of miles on the basis of reading thousands of books. Sima Tan asked his son to conduct a nationwide roaming for more than two years. Sima Qian's nationwide roaming since he was 20 years old was a field trip in preparation for writing "Historical Records". He personally interviewed and obtained a lot of first-hand materials, ensuring the authenticity and scientific nature of "Historical Records". His wandering is also a concrete embodiment of the spirit of recording in "Historical Records".
For example, he wandered to the Miluo River. At the place where Qu Yuan threw himself into the river, he recited Qu Yuan's poems loudly. He cried bitterly, so he wrote "The Biography of Qu Yuan" in such a way. There are feelings, he personally inspected it, and he wrote Qu Yuan on the basis of studying Qu Yuan. For example, in Huaiyin, Han Xin's hometown, he also collected many stories about Han Xin, and personally asked others about the time when Han Xin was humiliated under the crotch, and to understand why Han Xin could be humiliated under the crotch without getting angry and unwilling to go. If you do something illegal, bear with it. Han Xin, who was so tall, crawled between the legs of a gangster. If he had followed his personality, he would have killed him with one knife. But if you kill him, you won't be able to make contributions later. Han Xin later helped Liu Bang overthrow the Qin Dynasty, established the Western Han Dynasty, granted him the title of king, and returned to his hometown. Han Xin himself said: If I had killed you at the beginning, I would not have made any achievements later, so my impatience will mess up my big plans. For another example, in Qufu, he paid homage to Confucius's tomb, and together with some Confucian scholars from Confucius' hometown, he rolled up his clothes, rolled up his sleeves, bowed his hands step by step, and learned to ride horses and shoot. He learned and performed ancient rituals to express his memory of Confucius. For another example, in Xuecheng, the hometown of Lord Mengchang, he walked through the countryside and alleys to investigate the folk customs, and he investigated the relationship between the folk customs of this place and the hospitality of Lord Mengchang to support scholars, so he walked and inspected all the way. It can be said that during his wandering journey, Sima Qian did not let go of anyone who knew the history, and did not let go of any story that remained in people's reputation. He obtained many historical materials that could not be obtained from ancient books. At the same time, He went deep into the folk and had extensive contact with the lives of the people, which gradually deepened his observation and understanding of society and life.
In addition, he traveled through famous mountains and rivers, enjoyed the magnificence of the mountains and rivers of his motherland, and cultivated his temperament, thereby also improving the expressive power of his literature. Therefore, Sima Qian's wandering is a very solid step for Sima Qian to succeed. It is a very typical so-called reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles.
Sima Qian met his father in Luoyang
In 110 BC (the first year of Yuanfeng), Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty held a large-scale tour to Fengchan, with 180,000 people on foot and 180,000 riders, and banners flying for more than a thousand miles. , mighty and mighty. Sima Qian's father Sima Tan was a historian, but Sima Tan was ill at this time. With the permission of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he stayed in Luoyang to recuperate. It happened that Sima Qian hurried from Chang'an to follow Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and met his dying father Sima Tan in Luoyang.
In his "Preface" to "Historical Records", Sima Qian recorded in detail the sincere and thoughtful words Sima Tan said to him "between the river and Luo". Sima Tan said: Yu Xian, the Taishi of the Zhou Dynasty, has been famous in Yu and Xia since the previous world, and has been involved in official affairs in the sky. In later generations, he will decline, and will he be eliminated in Yu? If you become Taishi again, you will continue my ancestors. Today, the son takes over the throne of a thousand years old and is granted the title of Mount Tai, but I cannot follow him. This is my destiny, my destiny! After your death, you will become Taishi. As Taishi, I will never forget what I want to write. Moreover, a husband's filial piety begins with serving his relatives, ends with serving the emperor, and finally establishes his reputation in future generations to show off his parents. This is the greatest form of filial piety. The world praises the Duke of Zhou, saying that he can sing, write, and perform martial arts, spread the style of Zhou and Shao, express the thoughts of the Taiwang and Wang Ji, and be in love with Gong Liu, so as to respect Houji. After Youli, the king's way was lacking, ritual music declined, Confucius repaired the old and abolished it, discussed "Poems" and "Books", and wrote "Spring and Autumn", which scholars still follow today. Since Huolin, it has been more than four hundred years old, and the princes have joined forces, and the historical records have disappeared. Today, the Han Dynasty is rising, the country is unified, the emperor is wise, the loyal ministers are loyal and the people are righteous, the rest of them are Taishi and cannot be recorded, and the history and literature of the world are ruined, I am very afraid, you think about it!
Sima Qian bowed his head and shed tears, and swore to his father: "Although I am not smart, please allow me to write down the rumors about the past that you have recorded and compiled completely, without any omissions." The meeting in Luoyang became the difference between life and death for this father and son who were passionate about history.
Compiling "Historical Records" and being convicted
In 108 BC (the third year of Yuanfeng), when Sima Qian was 38 years old, he officially became the Taishi Order and had the opportunity to read all the records of the Han Dynasty court. He had the opportunity to collect all the books, files and various historical materials. While sorting out the historical materials, he participated in the revision of the calendar. When the Taichu Calendar, China's first almanac, was completed in 104 BC (the first year of Taichu), he began to write the "Historical Records".
In 99 BC (the second year of Tianhan), Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent General Li Guangli of the Second Division to lead 30,000 troops to attack the Xiongnu. They suffered a huge defeat and almost wiped out the entire army. Li Guangli escaped. Li Guang's grandson Li Ling was serving as the cavalry captain and led 5,000 infantrymen to fight against the Huns. Shan Yu personally led 30,000 cavalry to surround Li Ling's infantry regiments. But Li Ling's archery skills were very good and his soldiers were very brave. Five thousand infantrymen killed five or six thousand Huns cavalry. Chanyu mobilized more troops, but he was still unable to compete with Li Ling. Sima Qian was furious and wrote "Historical Records" [4] When Chanyu was preparing to withdraw his army, one of Li Ling's military commanders dared to rebel and reported Li Ling's internal military information. He told Shanyu that Li Ling had no reinforcements behind him, and taught Shanyu's subordinates how to make bows and arrows that could fire continuously. Chanyu then continued to fight Li Ling. In the end, Li Ling was outnumbered, and only more than 400 Han soldiers were left to break out. Li Ling was captured by the Huns and surrendered.
The ministers all condemned Li Ling for surrendering to the Huns because he was afraid of life and death. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked Taishi Ling Sima Qian for his opinion.
Sima Qian said: "The infantry brought by Li Ling was less than five thousand. He went deep into the enemy's hinterland and attacked tens of thousands of enemies. Although he lost the battle, he killed so many enemies and could attack the enemy. The people of the world have told him that if Li Ling refuses to die immediately, he must have his own ideas. He must also want to repay his sins to the emperor." After hearing this, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty thought that Sima Qian was defending Li Ling in this way. He deliberately belittled Li Guangli (Li Guangli was the brother of Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty's favored concubine), and became furious and said, "You are so strong in defending those who surrendered to the enemy. Aren't you deliberately opposing the imperial court?" He moved Sima to prison and handed him over to Tingwei for interrogation. . After Sima Qian was imprisoned, the case fell into the hands of Du Zhou, a notoriously cruel official at the time. Du Zhou interrogated Sima Qian severely, and Sima Qian endured all kinds of cruel physical and mental torture. In the face of cruel officials, he never gave in or confessed. Sima Qian kept asking himself in prison: "Is this my crime? Is this my crime? As a minister, can't I express my opinion?" Soon, there were rumors that Li Ling had led the Huns to attack Han Dynasty. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty believed it to be true and summarily executed Li Ling's mother, wife and son. Sima Qian was also sentenced to death for this incident. The next year Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty killed Li Ling's family and sentenced Sima Qian to corruption. Corruption is a great shame and humiliation, which taints ancestors and makes relatives and friends laugh. Later, Sima Qian mentioned this incident in "Report to Ren Shaoqing" and said: "After encountering this disaster, I was ridiculed by the township party to insult my ancestors. How can I return to the grave of my parents with a face? Although they have been stained for hundreds of years, "Mi Shi Er, the intestines turn nine times a day, and when they stay there, they suddenly feel like they are dead, and when they go out, they don't know where they are going. Every time I think about this shame, sweat breaks out on my back and my clothes are stained." In prison, I suffered a lot. Humiliation, "fighting hand and foot, receiving wooden ropes, exposing skin, receiving banners, and being secluded in the wall. At this time, when you see the jailer, you will fight for the ground, and when you look at the disciples, your heart will stop." (Sima Qian's "Book of Reporting to Ren An" ). Almost lost his life. He originally wanted to die, but when he thought of the information he had collected for many years, he said: "Everyone is destined to die, which may be heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather." He had a long-cherished wish to write a history book, so in order to complete the writing of "Historical Records", he endured the humiliation and burden, Hopefully there will be a turnaround.
In 96 BC (the first year of Taishi), Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty changed the Yuan Dynasty and issued a general amnesty to the world. Sima Qian was 50 years old at this time. After he was released from prison, he became the Secretary of the Central Committee. In the eyes of others, it may be a "respectful appointment", but he still concentrated on writing his book. It was not until 91 BC (the second year of Zhenghe) that the entire "Historical Records" was completed, with 130 chapters and more than 520,000 words.
Sima's famous sayings: 1. Xibo You performed "The Book of Changes"; Zhongnieu wrote "Spring and Autumn"; Qu Yuan was exiled and wrote "Li Sao"; Zuoqiu was blind, but he wrote "Guoyu"; Sun Tzu Kuai Jiao, revised the "Art of War"; Bu Wei moved to Shu, "Lu Lan", a biography of the world; Han Fei imprisoned Qin, "Speaking of Difficulties" and "Gu Ang". The three hundred chapters of "Poetry" were written by the great Di sages out of anger.

Yao Ming: 15 Somersaults Started the Basketball Journey Yao Ming was very thin at first. The first time Yao Ming played in an adult game was at the Eighth National Games shortly before the start of the 1997-1998 season when he was the "secret weapon" of the Shanghai team. When Yao Ming appeared, it really aroused an exclamation. In the first game against Shandong, when Yao Ming came on the court, the Shanghai team was trailing 2-19. No one expected that this kid could grab 17 rebounds, block 5 shots and score 9 points. The team eventually came back to win 50-48. However, when he appeared in the CBA for the first time in the 1997-1998 season, he was only 17 years old. Although he was 2.22 meters tall, his body was very thin. In his first appearance in the CBA, he was responsible for guarding the 2.16-meter-tall, 30-year-old Zhejiang team center Yu Leping; after one game, Yao Ming fell 15 times, and his huge body made the floor bang.

Qian Xuesen : In the early winter of 1955, Qian Xuesen, who had just overcome the obstruction of the US authorities from returning to his motherland, visited the Harbin Military Engineering Institute. The dean, General Chen Geng, asked him: "Can the Chinese develop missiles?" Qian Xuesen said: "Foreigners can do it, why can't the Chinese do it? Are the Chinese shorter than foreigners?!"
This sentence determined Qian Xuesen's career in rockets, missiles and aerospace. More than 40 years have passed, and Qian Xuesen is now 90 years old. With his foundational contributions to China's rocket and missile technology, aerospace technology and even the entire high-tech national defense industry, he wrote a splendid chapter for the modernization of our military's weapons and equipment.
(1)
On February 17, 1956, after careful consideration, Qian Xuesen proposed the "Opinions on Establishing my country's National Defense Aviation Industry", regarding the organization of my country's rocket and missile industries. plans, development plans and specific measures. The "Opinion" received great attention from the Party Central Committee. Soon, Qian Xuesen was appointed to establish my country's first rocket and missile research institute, the Fifth Research Institute of the Ministry of National Defense. October 8 - This was the first anniversary of Qian Xuesen's return to China. The Fifth Academy of the Ministry of National Defense was announced and Qian Xuesen was appointed as the dean. New China's rocket, missile and aerospace industries thus began a difficult journey. There are so many things to worry about when starting a new business. Qian Xuesen first taught "Introduction to Missiles" to the 156 newly assigned college students, allowing these technicians who had never seen a missile to understand the most basic professional knowledge. He formulated study plans for aerodynamics, engines and other related majors, and guided the establishment of research laboratories for missile overall, aerodynamics, engines, and missile body structures.
Jiuquan Launch Site. Qian Xuesen, like ordinary scientific and technological personnel, sleeps in tents, eats coarse food, and organizes the testing, calculation, analysis, and research of missile tests. Under the difficult conditions when the former Soviet Union suddenly withdrew all its experts, he led Chinese scientists to overcome difficulties one after another, and successfully conducted my country's first missile flight test on November 5, 1960. Nie Rongzhen, who was at the scene, said happily: "This is an important turning point in the history of my country's military equipment." On October 27, 1966, Qian Xuesen participated in organizing the flight explosion test of my country's first medium- and short-range surface-to-surface missile equipped with a nuclear warhead. , that is, the "two-bomb combined" test of atomic bombs and missiles. The nuclear warhead successfully achieved a nuclear explosion over the predetermined location, which shocked the world. my country's national defense modernization construction has once again achieved a historic leap.
As a great scientist of a generation, Qian Xuesen’s vision is always forward-looking. Shortly after the first missile was successfully launched, Qian Xuesen organized relevant experts to discuss the development path of my country's surface-to-surface missiles and formed the "Opinions on the Development Path of my country's Surface-to-Surface Missiles", which proposed my country's short- and medium-range, medium-range, medium- and long-range and Long-term development plan for intercontinental missiles. Subsequently, projects such as surface-to-air missiles, coastal defense missiles, solid motors, solid missiles, anti-missile systems and launch vehicles were also launched one after another under his organization and coordination. In January 1965, he submitted a report to the central government, suggesting that my country's artificial satellite research plan should be formulated as soon as possible and included in the national mission. The project code name of my country's first man-made satellite was thus designated as "Project 651", and Qian Xuesen was responsible for the overall technical coordination and organizational implementation of the "Star-Arrow-Ground System". On April 24, 1970, my country's first man-made satellite "Dongfanghong-1" traveled into space, announcing to the world that New China had ushered in the dawn of the space era.

Qian Xuesen is one of the founders of China’s military high technology. He not only made outstanding contributions to the cause of "two bombs and one satellite", but also put forward high-level important ideas and viewpoints on my country's military scientific research, and directly advocated the establishment and development of military systems engineering and military operations research disciplines. As early as the late 1970s, Qian Xuesen profoundly expounded the idea that "war is a science." He pointed out: "We must use modern science and technology to study the laws of war and study the science of war, which forms modern military science."
After painstaking research, Qian Xuesen wrote in a 1998 In his speech, he made a complete discussion of the military science system. He pointed out: “In military science, the basic theoretical level is military science, the technical theoretical level is military operations research, and the applied technical level is military systems engineering.” He positioned the role and function of military systems engineering as “using modern scientific and technological methods, "To better solve practical problems in the implementation of military lines and military strategies", and summarized the main problems to be solved as: combat simulation; design scheme demonstration of weapons and equipment systems, determination of tactical and technical indicators and effectiveness evaluation; logistics system Organizational management; design of combat command system; quantitative analysis of strategic issues and war simulation.
In May 1978, at the suggestion of Qian Xuesen and others, our army began pilot research on military operations research and systems engineering, and the Academy of Military Science established the first military operations research and analysis institution. Today, military operations research and military systems engineering have been widely used in various aspects such as our military's strategy and tactics, troop establishment system, and force structure research, and have achieved fruitful results.
Regarding my country’s national defense strategy, Qian Xuesen put forward a series of important suggestions that are overall, forward-looking and feasible. He pointed out in the 1980s that "small battles" in local areas may be our main form of warfare by the beginning of the 21st century. In order to build some elite troops that must be retained in peacetime and can fight immediately, we should carefully organize the army from , equipment to solve this problem. These suggestions have been highly valued by the military leadership and have now been reflected in practice. He also put forward many important suggestions on my country's national defense strategy and the reform and development of the military industry. He also proposed that military-industrial enterprises should implement "military-civilian integration" and civilian enterprises should implement "civilian-military integration", as well as the idea of ??using "flexible automated production systems" to reform military-industrial enterprises, which provided a solid foundation for the reform of my country's military-industrial enterprises and the strategic development of civilian enterprises. Mobilization preparation provides important ideas.
In his later years, Qian Xuesen also particularly emphasized the need to carry out interdisciplinary research in military science. In 1999, he pointed out to the leading comrades of the Academy of General Assembly and Military Sciences who came to visit him that the development of science is inseparable from the intersection, interaction and mutual learning of various disciplines. National defense construction is a large system, and all problems encountered in practice are big. However, experts often look at problems from the perspective of their own majors, which has great limitations. Mutual exchanges and discussions among various disciplines should be promoted.

It is Qian Xuesen’s lifelong wish to pursue the long-term development of China’s high-tech military and military modernization. Therefore, with the forward-looking vision of a scientist, he put forward lofty views on the training of scientific and technological talents for national defense and the military. Since 1985, Qian Xuesen has talked about the topic of "technical talents" many times. Qian Xuesen said: "Now it is required to cultivate a group of scientific and technological talents, that is, a group of engineers, scientists and thinkers." "When leading talents to achieve a clear goal, they should be able to consider everything from basic application to engineering practice. arrive". Qian Xuesen supports new disciplines and nurtures marginal disciplines, and every innovative viewpoint and idea can be encouraged. He said: "Innovative thinking must be promoted, and whether it is correct or not should be tested by practice." As early as 1986, Qian Xuesen believed that the high-tech revolution will inevitably bring about the rapid development of military technology, and the military will Become a knowledge-intensive department. Future wars will make extensive use of various advanced weapon systems, and the battlefield conditions will be complex, which will place higher demands on the scientific, technological, cultural and military literacy of commanders. After analyzing the educational level of foreign military and our military officers, he keenly pointed out that in order to cope with possible wars in the future, military cadres should gradually reach the educational level of college or above. Teacher cadres should have a master's degree, military cadres should have a doctorate, and soldiers should have a doctorate. The cultural level should also be improved accordingly. His foresight and sagacity are highly valued by the Central Military Commission and the headquarters.
Qian Xuesen, who is 90 years old this year, is still always concerned about the progress of national defense high technology and military modernization. He told the leading comrades of the Central Military Commission who came to visit him that we must pay close attention to the research on science and technology development strategies and the construction of talent teams. . The reporter saw in Qian's hometown that in the most conspicuous place on the bookshelf directly opposite his bed, there was a model of the "Shenzhou" spacecraft. Through the flying Shenzhou, his wise eyes will always be watching the soaring future of the motherland.
