Allusions about the backbone:

1 Wen Tianxiang was a national hero in the Southern Song Dynasty. He was originally a civilian, but in order to oppose aggression and defend the country, he bravely went to the battlefield. At that time, the Yuan Dynasty sent troops to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty. When Wen Tianxiang heard the news, he took out his own property, recruited 30,000 strong men, and formed a rebel army to fight against Yuan and save the country. Someone said, "With so many Yuan soldiers, how can you resist?" ? Isn't it just a tiger fighting with a sheep? "Wen Tianxiang said:" The country is in trouble and there is no one to rescue it, which is my greatest distress. Although my strength is thin, I will try my best for my country! "

Later, the rulers of the Southern Song Dynasty surrendered to the Yuan Army, but Wen Tianxiang still persisted in the war of resistance. He said to everyone, "saving the country is like saving your parents." Parents are sick, even if it is difficult to treat, the son should try his best to save them! " Soon, he was defeated and captured, resolutely refused to surrender, and wrote a famous sentence: "No one has died since ancient times, so take care." Show the determination to stick to national integrity until death. He refused the repeated persuasion of the Yuan Dynasty, and finally realized the ideal of sacrificing his life for righteousness and died generously. Over the years, Wen Tianxiang's spirit of saving the country has been handed down from generation to generation and has become the spiritual wealth of the Chinese nation.

2 Tao Yuanming does not bow down for five buckets of rice.

In ancient China, there were many stories about refusing to eat because of maintaining personality and integrity. "Tao Yuanming does not bend over for five buckets of rice" is one of the most representative examples.

Tao Yuanming was a great poet and celebrity in the late Eastern Jin Dynasty, and his great-grandfather was a famous Eastern Jin. When Tao Yuanming was young, he had the ambition of "benefiting people all his life", but in the turbulent era when the country was on the verge of collapse, his ambition could not be realized at all. In addition, his personality is honest and frank, honest and honest, and he doesn't want to grovel and cling to the powerful, so he has a sharp contradiction with the dirty and dark real society and has a feeling of being out of place.

In order to survive, Tao Yuanming first became a small official in the state, but because he didn't like the bad style of officialdom, he quickly resigned and went home. Later, in order to make a living, he also worked in some low-ranking official positions one after another and lived an anonymous life.

Tao Yuanming was an official for the last time in the first year of Yixi (405). That year, Tao Yuanming, who had passed the "year of no doubt" (4 1 year old), was persuaded by his friends to serve as Pengze county magistrate again. On one occasion, the county sent Du You to understand the situation. Someone told Tao Yuanming that those people were sent from above, so they should dress neatly and greet them respectfully. Hearing this, Tao Yuanming sighed: "I don't want to be humble enough to pay attention to these guys for the five salaries of a small county magistrate." Say that finish, just quit his official position and went home. Tao Yuanming became Pengze county magistrate, but it was only more than eighty days. He left his job this time and left the officialdom forever.

After that, he took part in agricultural labor while studying as a writer. Later, due to the continuous disaster of farmland, the house was burned down and the family situation deteriorated. But he didn't want to be an official any more, and even refused to accept the rice and meat sent by Jiangzhou assassins. The court once called him a writer, but he refused.

Tao Yuanming died of poverty and illness. He could have lived comfortably, at least with food and clothing, but at the cost of his personality and integrity. Tao Yuanming won the freedom of mind and the dignity of personality because he didn't bend his back for five buckets of rice, and wrote a generation of poems with eternal poetic style. While leaving valuable literary wealth to future generations, it also left valuable spiritual wealth. He became a model of China's later generations for people with lofty ideals because of his lofty integrity.

3 Su Wu: North Sea Shepherd

During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Khan, the new successor of Xiongnu, made a friendly gesture and put all the envoys of the Han Dynasty who had been detained back. So Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Su Wu, the corps commander, and John Zhang, the deputy corps commander, as his deputy, to lead Chang Hui and other officials 100 to reciprocate the Xiongnu, and at the same time sent back the Xiongnu emissary who had been detained.

After living in Su Wu for more than a month, when he was ready to go home, an unexpected thing happened suddenly: the fact that John Zhang, the deputy envoy, supported the Huns and some people opposed Khan was revealed.

Khan was very angry when he found out, and ordered John Zhang to be arrested and interrogated by others. Su Wu would rather die than surrender, drew his sword on the spot, and was scared to seek medical treatment.

Khan in order to make Su Wu yield, put him in the cellar, don't give food or water. It happened that it was snowing heavily. Su Wu ate sheepskin for several days and chewed up the snow that drifted into the cellar before he died.

A few days later, Khan moved Su Wu to Beihai (Lake Baikal in the former Soviet Union) to herd sheep and gave him a flock of rams, saying that they could not return to China until they gave birth to lambs. After Su Wu arrived in Beihai, the Huns stopped supplying him with food. He had to dig the caves of wild rats and feed on the grass seeds they hid inside. Several years have passed, and the clothes he wore when he went to the mission have become pieces, but the staff representing the envoys of the Han Dynasty is still there. He took this staff to shepherd the sheep during the day, stroked the pompoms made by yak hair during the festival, and slept in his arms at night.

Later, after all kinds of efforts, Sue was able to return to China. When he went to Xiongnu, Su Wu was only in his forties, but when he returned to the Han Dynasty, he was already an old man with white hair and beard.

Later, people compared the allusion of "Su Wu herding sheep" to loyalty, chastity and unyielding.
