However, there is another kind of person in the long river of history. They are just civilians. They have no power and influence and live at the bottom of society. They cherish their lives more than others, but when necessary, they will not hesitate to take out their precious lives for justice in their hearts. Even if there is no chance of winning, they will regard life and blood as beautiful clouds.
The chivalry, righteousness, loyalty, faithfulness and courage shown by their deaths are the embodiment of a nation's national spirit in their time, so that Sima Qian, the originator of history, made a biography for them.
There are many kinds of their deaths, some for gratitude, some for revenge and some for the whole world.
They all have one purpose: justice in their hearts.
This kind of person is: an assassin.
First, Jing Ke:
No return to stab the king of Qin.
Although this sentence was written by Jing Ke before, Jing Ke interpreted it as a classic. When Jing Ke crossed Xiao, he wanted to resist the fighters of the Qin Empire on his own and repay Zidan's kindness with his own life, but he didn't know how personal strength could compete with the historical trend. Even if he succeeds in stabbing Qin, what can he do? After Zheng's death, there will be one emperor after another to unify the world. But it is because of Jing Ke's ignorance and insignificance that he fought against the historical trend for the people of Yan, so he can give full play to his heroic spirit and show the assassin's spirit incisively and vividly.
"Wind, rain, water and cold, the strong man is gone forever." From generation to generation, women and children know it. If Jing Ke knows the name of later generations, he will be in the grave of Huai 'an.
Second, Nie Zheng:
Do your best, be loyal and filial, and kill Xia Lei.
Nie Zheng is a butcher, and becoming a knight-errant is a hobby. However, Nie Zheng was born to be an assassin, and he became famous in the Jianghu after he made his fist. One day, Korean aristocrat Yan Zhongzi came to him with gold and sincerity, asking him to get rid of South Korean Prime Minister Xia Lei. Nie Zheng politely declined. Yan Zhongzi was unhappy and asked his men for gifts several times. He said, "I have a mother to support, and my sister is unmarried, so I dare not accept your great trust." . Soon, Nie Zheng's mother passed away, and Yan Zhongzi came to offer condolences and held a parent-child ceremony. Nie Zheng was deeply moved. After his mother was buried, Nie Zheng married her sister soon and followed her to assassinate Xia Lei.
When the hero moves, it's really extraordinary. As a prime minister, Xia Lei had dozens of bodyguards, but he was killed by martial arts from outside the prime minister's house and stabbed to death with a knife. At this time, the guards came around. Seeing that Nie Zheng could not escape, he decided to commit suicide by raising his sword. Before he died, he gouged out his eyes with a long sword and cut his face into a pile of paste. There is only one purpose for the hero to do this: not to let people recognize him, so as not to implicate his dear evil sister!
In order to know who the assassin was, the South Korean government posted a notice saying that anyone who could recognize the body would be rewarded by 1200 yuan. When Nie Zheng's sister Nie Rong heard about it, she decided that it was her younger brother, so she threw herself at Nie Zheng's body in despair and burst into tears. The official asked her, aren't you afraid of being implicated? Nie Rong said: "My brother did this to prevent you from recognizing him, so as to save me. But in this way, isn't his reputation buried? Can I let my brave brother die in obscurity to save myself? " After that, Nie Rong shouted for three days, drew his sword and killed himself beside his younger brother.
It's just that a woman can kill herself by drawing her sword for her faith.
Such a tragic assassin and such a loyal national spirit are only qualified during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
Third, transfer:
Fish skin and sword stab Wu Wangliao.
Zhuan Xu, a native of the State of Wu in the Spring and Autumn Period, was hired by Guang, the son of the State of Wu (later the King of Wu and Lu) to assassinate the enemy.
On the day of the incident, my son entertained Liao Wang and secretly ambushed Jia Bing indoors. Liao Wang also took preventive measures, ordered people to line up along the way and deployed cronies around the steps of doors and windows. The guards standing in the middle of the road are all holding long beryllium. When the wine was hot, the son pretended to be ill with his feet and retreated to the back room. Then Zhu Zhu came out! He hid the dagger in the belly of the fish and pretended to provide food for Liao Wang. When you get to Liao Wang, it will be too late to say this! Zhuan suddenly tore open the fish's stomach, took out a dagger and stabbed Liao Wang! Liao Wang died instantly. Unfortunately, Zhuan Xu was killed by the guards at once. Childe light while the other leaderless, quick life ambush army attacked Liao Wang's attendants, the generals. In memory of Zhuan Xu, He Lv, the king of Wu, named Zhuan Xu's son Shangqing.
Fourth, leave:
The sad and brave man stabbed Qing Ji.
After He Lv became king of Wu, his son Qing Ji fled to Wei. Qing Ji is a very good man. He has great courage and is called the first warrior of Wu. Now Guo Wei is recruiting soldiers, waiting for the opportunity to avenge his father. After he Lu learned about this, he thought about getting rid of this huge trouble day and night, so he found a strong man. This man's name will leave.
After careful planning, I decided to use risks. One day, he wanted to duel with He Lv in the palace. He deliberately stabbed He Lv's wrist with a bamboo sword, then cut off his right arm with a real sword and went to defend the country to find Qing Ji. After he left, He Lu also killed his wife. After finding out the facts, Qing Ji believed it, regarded him as a confidant, and asked him to train and plot to solve the problem. After March, he went to Wu, where he and Jae-Il Lee were on a warship. One night, the night was charming, so I had to take advantage of Qing Ji's drinking at the bow to stab Qing Ji with one arm in the moonlight, pierce my heart and pierce my back. Qing Ji was very surprised and sighed: "There are such brave people in the world who dare to stab me like this!" At this time, the guards raised their knives and killed them and left. Qing Ji held his hand and said, "This is a warrior's world. How can you kill two soldiers in one day? Let him return to China and fulfill him! "
After leaving for home, he celebrated Lu Tongqing. I want to decline politely and say, "I didn't kill to be an official, but for the peace of Wu, so that the people can live and work in peace." After that, he committed suicide in the golden palace.
What a sad, brave and comfortable man.
Verb (abbreviation of verb) redundancy
Make friends with Yu rang.
Yu Rang, a native of the State of Jin in the Spring and Autumn Period, failed. After taking refuge in Zhi Bo, he was taken seriously. Later, Zhi Bo was killed by his enemy Zhao Xiangzi, and Zhao Xiangzi used his skull as a wine glass. Yu Rang said in a rage, "A scholar dies as a bosom friend, and a woman is proud of herself." Yurang decided to take revenge.
First, he changed his name and surname, disguised himself as a criminal, sneaked into the court, and attempted to assassinate Zhao Xiangzi with a dagger by renovating the toilet. The result was unsuccessful. Zhao Xiangzi thinks that Yu Jean is an upright man who is willing to avenge his dead Lord and set him free.
Jade still won't give up. He will take revenge by disguising himself by painting and swallowing coal. The opportunity came, and Yu rang ambushed under a bridge in advance, ready to assassinate when Zhao Xiangzi passed by. Zhao Xiangzi's horse suddenly jumped up, which made Yu Rang's plan fail again. Knowing that it was meant to be, Yurang begged Zhao Xiangzi: "I hope you can let me fulfill my last wish: take off your clothes and let me put them on, so that even if I die, there will be no regrets. Zhao Xiangzi promised him, and Yu rang drew his sword, stabbed Zhao Xiangzi three times on his clothes, and then committed suicide.
It is enough to have a bosom friend in life.
6. Wren:
The shrew lurked and stabbed Zhao Dun.
Wry smile, a Jin native in the Spring and Autumn Period, some people don't think that wry smile is an assassin, because he didn't assassinate him at all, and in the present words, the crime is terminated. But the historical identity of the shrew
It is indeed an assassin. Personally, I think a shrew is more of an honest man. Because he voluntarily gave up the assassination, he did not become famous, but in
However, there are wonderful records in Zuo Zhuan. At that time, Jin Linggong, the monarch of the State of Jin, was dissolute and tyrannical, the people were rich and the country was strong, the civil construction was prosperous, and the people in the State of Jin were boiling. Zhao Dun, the prime minister, repeatedly urged Gong Ling to make corrections, but Gong Ling didn't listen at all, instead, he was disgusted.
607 years ago, Gong Ling's favorite doctor Tu'an Gu offered a plan to harm Zhao Dun, saying, "I have a guest whose family is poor, and I often help them. I feel the benefits of the minister and am willing to work hard, so I can assassinate the country! " That night, Gong Ling and Tu'an Gu secretly summoned the shrew, gave them wine and food, and told them, "Zhao Dun has the absolute right to bully the Lord, and now he will stab you. Don't delay. " After receiving the order, the shrew lurked around the Zhao government. On the fifth watch, I saw the heavy door opened and flies entered the middle door. I saw the lights and shadows in the hall. Zhao Dun is wearing a crown, gentlemen are in the water, but he is sitting in the court in the hall. Frightened, the wren stepped back from the door and sighed, "You are so respectful and loyal! It is unfair to assassinate loyal ministers; It is unbelief to abandon it under your orders. If you don't believe in injustice, why do you stand between heaven and earth? " But he called to the door and said, "Ye Ye, I would rather disobey your orders than kill a loyal minister. I'm going to kill myself today! I'm afraid there will be latecomers, so the Prime Minister should be on his guard! " After saying this, he touched a big tree in front of the door, his brains burst and he died. The gatekeeper was alarmed, and Zhao Dun was informed. Zhao Dun sighed unceasingly and ordered the shrew to be buried shallow beside the locust tree for temporary maintenance.
Although he was an assassin, he committed suicide because he didn't want to violate the word loyalty and righteousness. Such a righteous man is really touching.
Seven, Cao Mo:
Robbed the Qi Huangong League with a sword.
Lu people are famous for their bravery and good fighting skills. Duke Lu admired him very much and appointed him as a general to fight against Qi. Unexpectedly, all three wars were defeated, and Lu was afraid of public hazards, so he quickly negotiated for peace. But I don't blame Cao Mo, I still regard him as a general.
Promised to form an alliance with Lu in Kedi. Just as Duke Zhuang of Lu and Duke Huan were preparing to reach a humiliating agreement, Cao Mo rushed over with a dagger in his hand and hijacked Qi Huangong. Huan Gong was afraid of hurting his master and didn't dare to do anything. Duke Huan asked, "What do you want?" Cao Mo said, "Your bullying has gone too far. What do you think we should do, your majesty? " Duke Huan was forced to promise to return all the land occupied by Lu. After being promised, Cao Mo put down his dagger and stood among the ministers again, his face unchanged and his words remained the same. Huan Gong became angry from embarrassment and wanted to break his word. He was stopped by Guan Zhong. As a result, all the land lost by Cao Mo in the Third World War was returned.
With loyal courage and immortal tongue, Cao Mo not only regained the land, but also saved his life, which is remarkable.
Eight, Hou Ying, Zhu Hai:
If these two assassins were missing from the famous story "Xinlingjun stole the symbol to save Zhao", this wonderful story would disappear from history.
Hou Ying was a Wei native during the Warring States Period. Originally a security guard guarding the city gate, he was not regarded as a guest of honor by Xinlingjun until he was seventy years old. Zhu Hai, a pig-killing specialist, is a strange man, hiding in the street. These two men played a key role in helping Xin save Zhao.
Here's the thing. In 257 BC, the king of Qin sent troops to besiege Zhao, and Zhao was in danger. So he sent someone to find Wei, and Wei sent a hundred thousand troops to meet him. When the king of Qin learned the news, he began to threaten Wang Wei. Wang Wei was afraid, and Jinbi, in a hurry, stopped moving. New Ling Jun knew that his lips were dead and his teeth were cold. He urged Wang Wei to send troops to save Zhao several times, but Wang Wei just stayed put. Xin didn't want to do nothing, so she raised a car and a horse and took her apprentice to help Zhao. When passing through the gate, Hou Ying stopped him and said to him, Son, don't act rashly. I have a clever plan. Xinlingjun stole the drum from Wang Wei's favorite as planned, and took Zhu Hai to Jinbi to seize the military power. Comrade Zhu Hai killed Jinbi with a hammer on the spot. So Xin successfully seized the military power, commanded the army to save Zhao, and finally repelled and saved Zhao. Hou Ying and Zhu Hai heard that Xin Lingjun had arrived at the front line and drew his sword and killed himself.
Nine, Wang Zhu:
Assassinate Ahma for the people
In the first year of Zhiyuan (1264), Ahema, a semu, was favored by Kublai Khan and was appointed as the official of Zhongshu Pingzhang. Later, relying on his power, he designed various schemes for Yuan Kublai Khan, bullying the Han people and plundering the wealth of the people, such as cleaning up the household registration, monopolizing patents, spamming paper money, scraping off the property of the Han people regularly, and so on. In March of the 19th year of Zhiyuan, Kublai Khan and Prince Zhenjin went to Shangdu (east of Zhenglan Banner in Inner Mongolia), and Ahema stayed in Dadu (now Beijing). On the evening of March 17, more than 80 people gathered to benefit thousands of families, pretending to be a prince and Su Wei, and pretending that the prince returned to Beijing to run a Buddha and enter the city. The next night, Ahema was tricked into killing people in front of the East Palace. After the incident, monk Hegao was arrested and beheaded. After Kublai Khan got the report, he first suspected that Chen Han had seized power, and later discovered Ahema's crime, indicating that "Wang Zhu's sincerity in killing people is also true" and investigated Ahema's crime, and investigated and punished him for taking away 500 women from China for fornication, with two skins and countless treasures. Kublai Khan was furious and slaughtered him outside the Xuanmen, confiscating his property, executing him and expelling his henchmen.
X. Wenxiang Zhang:
Wenxiang Zhang stabbed a horse with a knife.
During the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, Wenxiang Zhang, a knight, became brothers with Ma Xinyi, a martial artist, Cao Erhu and Shi Jinbiao, assistants of Yong ying. Cao Erhu's wife is very beautiful, and the boss Ma Xinyi is a white-faced scholar on the surface, but she is a womanizer in essence. He took the opportunity to invite Cao Erhu on a business trip, sent someone to assassinate Cao Erhu in other places, and occupied his wife.
When Shi Jinbiao and Wenxiang Zhang learned that they were going to avenge Yidi, they were furious. Word got to Ma Xinyi that he was going to find an excuse to kill him. So Wenxiang Zhang and Shi Jinbiao fled to other places overnight. Wenxiang Zhang fled to the new town in Deqing County, Huzhou Prefecture, and went to his Henan friend Zhong Yan who made a living in the new town ten years ago, while Shi Jinbiao lived in Shixia Town, Haining County, waiting for an opportunity to avenge Cao Erhu. Through Zhong Yan's introduction, Wenxiang Zhang got to know the master of Yin Chao, a monk in Juehai Temple.
Master Yin Chao is also from Henan. He became a monk in Shaoshishan Shaolin Temple in Dengfeng County, Henan Province, and learned good martial arts, especially good at flying knives. Wenxiang Zhang begged Master Yin Chao to accept him as an apprentice. Seeing his chivalry and generosity, the master made an exception and taught him to practice flying knives, and made a pair of willow flying knives for Wenxiang Zhang in the blacksmith's shop of Driving Xianqiao. From then on, under the careful guidance of Master Yin Chao, Wenxiang Zhang practiced flying knives in Qibaochi of Juehai Temple every day.
At this point, Ma Xinyi has been promoted to Governor of Liangjiang (the highest military and political chief in Jiangsu and Zhejiang) and lives in Nanjing. Shi Jinbiao told Wenxiang Zhang the news. Since then, Wenxiang Zhang has twice sneaked into the Nanjing Governor's yamen to see the assassination route. After half a year, Wenxiang Zhang's flying knife technique has been comparable to that of Master Yin Chao, reaching perfection.
In the autumn of the seventh year of Tongzhi, Wenxiang Zhang took a flying knife, bid farewell to Master Yin Chao, and sneaked into Nanjing from Xinshi Juehai Temple. One day, Ma Xinyi marched from the tinker and rode back to the governor's yamen. Just after getting off the sedan chair, Wenxiang Zhang used the flying knife technique practiced in Juehai Temple to insert two sharp poisonous willow knives into Ma Xinyi's chest, and Ma Xinyi was killed on the spot. Later, Wenxiang Zhang was executed by the Qing court. This is the case of Wenxiang Zhang stabbing a horse, one of the four unsolved cases in the late Qing Dynasty.
Another chivalrous man who can be friends with life and death like Yu Rang.
When collecting and sorting out these assassins emerging in the history of the Chinese nation, I was deeply moved by their deeds every time. They risk their lives for chivalry, loyalty, faith, and friends, and their bosom friends can stand up without hesitation. They are not afraid of life and death, chivalrous, and settle down, which is lamented and cherished by everyone in China. Their epic deeds have become moving notes in the history of China, jumping all the time and giving out their unique vocal music.
When I first wrote the posts, I tried to rank them in a certain way. Later, when I wrote here, I couldn't help sighing that my thoughts were superficial. How can the great spirit shown by these tragic assassins be compared?
