The historical story of Tian Ji Sai and Ma must have been read by people who have read the book, and most of the people who have seen it only think that Sun Zhi is smart and can win the game with proper strategy.
But! Don't you think about it, the history books and the Warring States Policy, a hundred years of paper! Is it necessary to record this story?
Is this story really that simple?
Just Sun Bing gave Tian Ji a move, down to the top, up to the center, middle to the bottom, and won two wins in three sets.
Win? Is King Qi Wei stupid?
Isn't that a tricky game? King Qi Wei was on the spot, could he not know that this was a trick?
In front of the king, even if the courtier can win, he will deliberately lose to the other party, not to mention that your horse of Tian Ji is better than that, and he must win the game by tricking the way.
Do you think that behind this is not another thing that is extremely frightening?
The courtiers depend on the king and win the king's gold.
It can be seen that as the supreme military commander of the State of Qi, Sun Zhiming clearly played a trick that would offend the king, and Tian Ji still adopted it, which showed that Tian Ji had begun to despise the king.
It can be seen that the king of Qi Wei kept his promise, even if Tian Ji played Lai to win the game, but this competition has already seen Tian Ji's mind.
It can be seen that the third is that as an outsider and a protégé, Sun Zhen risked his life to play tricks for Tian Ji. Test the relationship between Tian Ji and king Qi. If Sun Bin remains neutral, he can and will not make this decision.
In the end, the tragic end of Tian Ji in history is inextricably linked to this horse race.
