Speaking of the famous ancient horses, one has been misunderstood for thousands of years, and the other has a tragic ending.
As the saying goes, a good horse matches a hero. There were many heroes in the ancient history of China, and their mounts were often peerless BMWs. These BMWs galloped with their owners and left a deep impression in history. Red hare should be the most famous of all famous horses. It is not synonymous with a famous horse, because it is unique, and the fame of any famous horse cannot be compared with it. A Romance of the Three Kingdoms raised Red Rabbit to the height of the emperor. Its two owners, Lu Bu and Guan Yu, are world-famous heroes. However, the red hare in history was not Guan Yu's mount. According to the Records of the Three Kingdoms, the owner of Red Rabbit is only Lu Bu. After Lu Bu's death, the red hare disappeared. Think about it, too. How can a bold BMW like Red Rabbit change its owner at will? Many people have always misunderstood the origin of the name of Red Rabbit. It's called Red Rabbit, but not because it runs as fast as a rabbit. It is obviously an insult to use rabbits to reflect the speed of horses. Bole's "Xiang Ma Jing" contains: "Want to get the rabbit's head and shoulders, fox grass ears ... want to get the bird's eyes and neck, want to get the fish's fins and ridges". Therefore, the "red" of the red rabbit horse may be talking about its hair, and the "rabbit" is talking about its head shape, which is in line with the characteristics of BMW. As a lean man in the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Cao naturally had a BMW. Cao Cao has two famous BMWs, one is Jueying, and the other is Claw Imperial Palace. Jueying, as its name implies, is too fast to catch up with the shadow. In the Book of Wei, it was mentioned that the horse's name was lost, and he was shot by a flowing arrow, hurting his cheeks and feet and hitting his right arm straight. "When conquering Zhang Xiu, Cao Cao not only lost a son and a lover, but also lost his foal. Jueying still retreated with Cao Cao after hitting three arrows in a row until the arrow in his eye finally fell to the ground. After blindness, the Claw Imperial Palace became Cao Cao's favorite pony. According to legend, the claws of Huangfei Temple are tall, dignified and white, but the horseshoes are yellow, which Cao Cao praised as imperial. Liu Bei, who cooks wine with Cao Cao and talks about heroes, will certainly be without a BMW. Liu Bei's BMW is called "Lu", and Xin Qiji's "The horse makes Lu fast and the bow is like a thunderbolt" refers to this horse. Lu, like Jueying, once saved Liu Bei's life. It is Liu Bei's favorite mount. Wu Zhui was also a famous BMW in ancient China. It's black all over and its hooves are white, so it's named "kicking the snow". Wu Zhui Horse is Xiang Yu's mount, and it accompanied Xiang Yu to fight in the south and north until Wujiang River. Xiang Yu gave up his love for horses and died, so he entrusted them to the old boatman. But it is said that after Xiang Yu committed suicide, Wu Zhui Ma also jumped into the river with his master and died. A generation of BMW and heroes ended up in such an ending, which is really regrettable. In addition to the red rabbit horse and the raccoon horse, there are many famous horses and excellent horse breeds in ancient China, such as Salou and Taylor horses in Li Shimin, Huang Ma in Qin Qiong, and Jade Lion in Changshan Zhao Zilong. , are peerless horses. In ancient times, good horses were mostly war horses. They marched fearlessly in the battlefield full of swords and halberds with flesh and blood, leaving a series of legends. Nowadays, with the development of science and technology, horses have gradually become exhibits and pets, and there are fewer and fewer cavalry in the army. Now, we can only appreciate the former Jin Ge Tiema through history.
