Drawing the sword and sucking the eyes is related to Xiahou Dun, the hero of the Three Kingdoms.

In the first year of Xingping (194), Cao Cao conquered Tao Qian and left Xiahou Dun to guard Puyang. However, Zhang Miao and Chen Gong rebelled against Lü Bu, and Cao Cao's family members were all in Juancheng. Xiahou Dun led his lightly armed troops to rescue them, and happened to meet Lü Bu's army, and the two sides fought. Lu Bu's army retreated, so Lu Bu took the opportunity to enter Puyang and raided to obtain military supplies from Xiahou Dun's army.

Lü Bu sent another general to pretend to surrender, and took the opportunity to kidnap Xiahou Dun with Xiahou Dun's men and demanded precious supplies from him. Xiahou Dun's soldiers were shocked and frightened. Xiahou Dun's general Han Hao then commanded the troops to station outside the gate of Xiahou Dun's military camp, and ordered the soldiers and generals to stand still, and then the various military camps settled down.

He also claimed that the safety of the hostages would not be considered in accordance with national law, and made a gesture of sending troops to attack the hostage-takers. The hostage takers were frightened and surrendered. After Cao Cao heard about this incident, he made it a law to attack the hostages without worrying about the hostages, so no more hostage-taking incidents occurred in the future. ?

Xiahou Dun, Xun Yu and Cheng Yu tried their best to protect the three cities. When they counterattacked Lu Bu, they were shot in the left eye by a stray arrow and returned in defeat. From then on, he was known as the "Blind Xiahou". But Xiahou Dun attaches great importance to appearance. Whenever he looks in the mirror and sees that he is blind, he will be very angry and push the mirror to the ground. He doesn't like to be called "Blind Xiahou". Later, he regained the title of Chen Liu, the governor of Jiyin, general Jianwu, and the title of Marquis of Gao'an Township.

Extended information:

Xiahou Dun was a famous general of Cao Wei during the Three Kingdoms period in the late Han Dynasty and a descendant of Xia Houying, the founding father of the Western Han Dynasty. As a boy, he was famous in his hometown for his courage. Cao Cao raised his army, and Xiahou Dun was one of his earliest generals. During the battle with Lu Bu's army, he was once captured as a hostage and was shot blind in his left eye by a stray arrow. He guarded the rear for Cao Cao many times, led the army and the people to block the Taishou River, built ponds to irrigate farmland, benefiting the people, and made outstanding contributions.

He successively served as the captain of Zhechong, the prefect of Jiyin, and the general of Jianwu. He rose to the rank of general, was granted the title of Marquis of Gao'an Township, and was given the posthumous title of Zhonghou. In the first year of Qinglong (233), he was able to enjoy the temple court of Taizu (Cao Cao).

Although Xiahou Dun spent most of his life in the military, he still did not forget to study. He often welcomed his teachers in person and asked for advice humbly. He was a frugal man and gave all his rewards to his soldiers. If you don't own any property in your life, you will have no wealth left at home until your death.
