This man was the first man in military history, he said first, and I don't think anyone dared to have an opinion. Everyone calls him a "soldier immortal", and it is conceivable that everyone recognizes his tactical achievements.
He belongs to one of the most topical figures in the long river of history, and the idioms that describe him can be said to be the most in history. An idiom that tells a story. And when many idioms are strung together, then it is possible to interpret a person's life.
He is the famous Han Xin in history, a general who uses soldiers like gods, a legendary figure who is highly respected by future generations of military experts, and a figure who has made great contributions to the establishment of the Han Dynasty, but finally ended up with a rabbit dead dog cooking. Let us enter his life through the idiom of Han Xin.
A meal for a thousand dollars
A Han Xin who later became a prominent figure in the Han Dynasty had a tragic childhood, and in his youth, he could not even eat. An old woman in the same village was distressed by Han Xin and often brought him food to eat. And Han Xin, who is also sensible, also wrote down the old woman's kindness, saying that when he became famous, he would definitely repay the old woman, and later when Han Xin returned to his hometown, he did fulfill his original promise, gave the old woman thousands of gold, and a meal of thousands of gold also came from this.
Crotch humiliation
When Han Xin was young, he was a poor but idealistic person, which led to others thinking that he was bragging, and everyone looked down on him. Until several people in the same village saw Han Xin on the street and prepared to tease him, saying that he would drill through his crotch, Han Xin knew that he could not resist at the moment, so he endured the humiliation and drilled through the crotch of the other party. Many years later, after he became a general, Han Xin returned to his hometown, found the people who had insulted him, and gave them official positions. It also makes this idiom pass down through the ages and become a good story.
The nation is unmatched
No one can think of this idiom from Han Xin: Xiao He used "Guoshi Peerless" to describe Han Xin's own talent, persuaded Liu Bang, and made Liu Bang reuse Han Xin, so that the drama of Chu and Han hegemony began.
Ming Xiu Zhan Dao, secretly crossing Chen Cang; a battle of backwaters; ten ambushes
As the most famous general in the Han-Chu War, many of his tactics on the battlefield became idioms that everyone talked about, and when the Battle of Anyi was defeated by the King of Wei, he used the "Ming Xiu Zhan Dao, Darkness Chen Cang" scheme. The Battle of Jingxing enabled the "Battle of the Backwaters" to inspire the combat effectiveness of the soldiers to defeat the King of Zhao. The Battle of Weishui "won more with less" with very classic tactics to break up the Qi-Chu coalition army, and finally the famous decisive battle of "Ten Faces Ambush" beat the Chu army to the point of physical and mental collapse.
"Gong Gao Zhen Lord"
As a figure in command of the three armies, Han Xin, who played a very crucial role in the establishment of the Han Dynasty, was crowned king of Chu and won the hearts of the people, which also made Liu Bang feel that his position was threatened, and there was also the idiom of Han Xin "Gong Gao Zhen Lord".
"The cunning rabbit dies, the good dog cooks; the high bird is exhausted, the good bow is hidden"
Finally, after Liu Bang sat on the throne, Han Xin was cursed by the Nine Tribes, died tragically, and said this famous saying before dying.
In the end, Han Xin, who was only 35 years old, completed his life.
His life was legendary enough, he once stood at the top, and he used his powerful ability to help Liu Bang win the world and establish the Han Dynasty. But the ending after the glory is also bleak enough, falling into a rabbit dead dog cooking situation, giving future generations a wake-up call.
