Ban Chao is ambitious and doesn't care about trifles. But filial piety and diligence at home often lead a hard life, and labor is not shameful. He is eloquent and has read a lot of historical classics. In 62 AD (the fifth year of Yongping), my brother Ban Gu was recruited as a school bookboy, and Ban Chao and his mother also took their classmates to Luoyang. Because his family was poor, Ban Chaochang copied books for the government to earn money to support his family.

He copied for a long time and worked hard. On one occasion, he stopped his work, threw a pen and sighed: "If a gentleman doesn't have better ambition and strategy, he should make great achievements in a foreign land like Fu Jiezi in Zhao Di and Zhang Qian in Liang Wudi, so as to get a seal. How can he be busy between pens and inkstones for a long time? "

People around him laughed at him. Ban Chao said: "How can a teenager understand the ambition of a strong man!"

Second, Zu Ti smells chickens dancing.

At first, Zu Ti, a native of Fanyang, had great ambitions when he was young. He used to be the main book of Sizhou with Liu Kun, slept with Liu Kun, and heard chickens crow in the middle of the night. He kicked Liu Kun and said, "This is not a disgusting sound." Stand up and dance the sword. After crossing the river, Si Marui, the left prime minister, asked him to be a military adviser to offer a drink offering.

Zu Ti lived in Jingkou, summoned brave men, and said to Si Marui, "The chaos in the state of Jin was not because the monarch had no choice, but because the imperial clan fought for power and profit, killing each other, which made Rong Di's people take advantage of the loopholes and spread the disaster throughout the Central Plains.

Now the adherents of the Jin Dynasty have been devastated and weakened, and everyone is thinking about self-improvement. Your Majesty, you can really send generals to lead the army to recover the Central Plains. Heroes in the world, there will be people who are responsive! "Si Marui never had the ambition of the Northern Expedition. After listening to Zu Ti, he appointed Zu Ti as general Wei Fen and Yuzhou secretariat.

Just give him/KLOC-0.000 people rations and 3,000 pieces of cloth, and let Zu Ti find a way to support himself without supplying weapons. Zu Ti led more than 100 private troops across the Yangtze River and paddled on the river, saying, "If Zu Ti can't make the Central Plains clear and recover successfully, it will be like a great river!"

So he stationed in Huaiyin, built furnaces and cast weapons, and recruited more than 2,000 people to move on.

Third, the painter Zhao Guang is indomitable.

Hefei people were originally Li Shuxiang's family. Li is around as his painter. After a long time, he began to be good at painting, especially horses, almost like Li. Jian Yan years, fell into the hands of the nomads from the army.

Jinbing heard that he was good at drawing, so he asked him to draw captured women. Zhao Guang resolutely refused to paint, threatened the nomads from the army with a knife, and cut off his right thumb without success. Zhao Guang actually paints with his left hand. After the situation calmed down, Zhao Guang only painted Guanyin tuas. A few years later, he died, and most of Li's Guanyin paintings were written.

Fourth, Su Wu sheep on the North Sea

Wei Law knew that Su Wu could not intimidate and surrender after all, so he reported Khan. Khan wanted him to surrender more and more, so he imprisoned Su Wu in a big cellar and didn't give him anything to drink or eat. When it snowed, Su Wu lay chewing the snow and swallowed it with felt wool to satisfy his hunger. He won't die for a few days.

Huns thought it was amazing, so they moved Su Wu to a deserted place near Beihai, and let him graze the ram, saying that he would give it back to Han after the ram gave birth to a lamb. At the same time, his subordinates and his entourage Chang Hui were placed in other places.

After Su Wu moved to Beihai, the grain could not be sent out, so he had to dig out the wild fruits stored by the wild rats to eat. He leans on Jeff in the cold pavilion to graze the sheep, and holds them when he sleeps and gets up, so that the yak tail hair tied to his joints can be taken off.

Fifth, birds know the ambition of swans.

When Bobby Chen was young, he was hired to plow the fields. On one occasion, he suddenly stopped in the process of farming and walked onto the ridge. He was annoyed and resentful for a long time and said to his friends, "If anyone is rich in the future, don't forget each other."

The partner smiled and replied, "You were hired to plow the fields. Where did you get rich? " Chen Sheng sighed: "Alas, how do sparrows know the ambition of swans?"
