be killed in battle

Ma Yuan was the founding father of the Eastern Han Dynasty. He put down the unrest in the border areas and had a great influence on the south. He was appointed General Fu Bo.

When Ma Yuan returned to Luoyang, everyone came to congratulate him, including an official named Meng Yi. Ma Yuan said to Meng Yi, "Why don't you praise me instead of telling me something?" Meng Yi doesn't know how to deal with it. Ma Yuan said: "Lu Bode, the general of Fu Bo in the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, opened land in seven counties, and his fief was only a few hundred households. My contribution is much smaller than that of General Lu, and I have also sealed up as many as 3,000 fiefs. Rewards are not just advantages. Why don't you teach me this, sir? " "Now, the huns and wu huan harassment in the north. I want to ask the imperial court to be a pioneer and a person with lofty ideals. Men should die on the battlefield in the frontier wilderness, wrapped only in the skin of horses. How can they lie in bed and die next to their children? " Meng Yi listened to sincerely admire.

A month later, Ma Yuan went to the northern front again. Ma Yuan died in the army at the age of 63.

Historical stories about horses

1, the story of Wang Hai's horse training

Horse, originally a wild animal, was first called "fire beast". In the era of the Yellow Emperor 5000 years ago, people lived a nomadic life with uncertain migration. Legend has it that once, the men of the Yellow Emperor captured a wild horse. Whenever people get close to it, its front hoof will fly, its head will scream, or its hind legs will collapse, but it will not hurt people and other animals, but only eat grass. At that time, people didn't know this animal, so they asked the Yellow Emperor to identify it. The yellow emperor observed it for a long time, but he couldn't recognize what animal it was. He only asked everyone not to kill it, and sent Wang Haixian, an expert in animal domestication, to fence it with wooden fences.

After a while, Wang Hai found several red wild horses coming outside the railing. They kept barking at the wild horses in the railing and refused to leave. A day later, Wang Hai opened the wooden fence door. Unexpectedly, several wild horses rushed into the wooden fence outside, mixed with the wild horses in the fence, brayed at each other for a while, and then lay down again. Wang Hai closed the railing door and fed them with the cut grass. Before long, one of the horses suddenly gave birth to a pony. Wang Hai is very happy. The news spread and people came to watch. These wild horses have been in contact with people for a long time, and it seems that people don't want to hurt them, so they don't panic in front of people and become very docile. Ponies, in particular, like to play with people.

One day, after feeding the horse, Wang Hai pulled out a tame horse and jumped on it. The horse was surprised and suddenly flew into the air, throwing Wang Hai, who was unprepared, on his back. By the time Wang Hai got up from the ground, the horse had run far away. Wang Hai stood up and looked at the horse that ran farther and farther. He was so anxious that he thought it would never come back. Just about to go back, unexpectedly, the horse that ran far turned around and ran back. Wang Hai was so happy that he quickly led the horse into the inner ring of the railing. Later, he thought of a way to twist mulberry bark into a rope, tie it to the horse's head and pull it out slowly. Then jump on horseback. The horse still flies like the first time. This time, Wang Hai learned the last lesson. One hand gripped the rope tied to the horse's head, and the other hand tightened the horse's mane. No matter how fast the horse flies, Wang Hai won't let go. After running for a while, the speed of the horse slowed down until the horse stopped running. Wang Haicai pulled the horse's head over and rode back slowly.

After Wang Hai succeeded in riding a horse, he caused a sensation among many people at once. Hou Feng, Ying Long, Chang Xian and Da Hong all came to watch, and soon the Yellow Emperor knew about it. Ying Long, the general around the Yellow Emperor, was of course more interested in riding horses. He actively assisted Wang Hai in training horses and practicing riding. At this time, an unfortunate thing happened. One morning, Wang Hai and Ying Long got up to practice horses and forgot to close the railing door. A tiger broke into the circle when no one was around and killed the lovely pony. He was just about to open his mouth to eat when he was found. The tiger jumped out of the railing and ran away before eating the pony. When Wang Hai and Ying Long saw that the foal was killed by a tiger, they felt sick with anger. They immediately took bows and arrows and rode in the direction of the tiger's escape. They ran dozens of mountains in one breath. Finally found this tiger. The two men aimed at the target, fired several arrows in succession and shot the tiger to death in the valley. On the way back, Wang Hai and Ying Long rode horses and killed some deer. Unexpectedly, their actions attracted the attention of the wind. After the storm, he is always wise and resourceful. When his mind moved, he said to the Yellow Emperor, "Since riding a horse can chase tigers and shoot beasts, can you also ride a horse to chase the enemy in war?" After the wind broke, he suggested that the Yellow Emperor order: "Hunters from all tribes are not allowed to shoot wild horses in the future. Whoever can catch the wild horse will be rewarded. " The Yellow Emperor not only agreed to this suggestion, but also began to practice riding by himself. He ordered Ying Long and Wang Hai to carefully raise and train more than 200 wild horses they captured. Ying Long specially selected more than 200 capable young people to train horses and men from morning till night every day. After more than two years of training, the earliest cavalry of the Chinese nation was born. This cavalry played an important role in Zhuolu War.

2. Call a deer a horse

Qin Ershi's prime minister, Zhao Gao, is ambitious, planning to usurp the throne all day long. However, he doesn't know how many people can be at his mercy and how many people are against him. So he thought of a way to test his prestige and find out who dared to oppose him.

One day, Zhao Gao brought a deer into the palace and said to Qin Ershi with a big smile, "Your Majesty, I will give you a good horse." Qin Ershi looked at it and thought: This is not a horse, this is obviously a deer! He smiled and said to Zhao Gao, "The Prime Minister has made a mistake. There is a deer here. How can you say it's a horse? " Zhao Gao said with a straight face: "Please see clearly, this is indeed a swift horse." Qin Ershi looked at the deer again and said incredulously, "Why does a horse have horns on its head?" Zhao Gao turned around, pointed to the ministers and said loudly, "Your Majesty can ask the ministers if you don't believe me."

Ministers were all at a loss by Zhao Gao's nonsense, and whispered privately: What is this Zhao Gao doing? It's obviously a deer or a horse! Ministers see Zhao Gao sinister smile on his face, eyes staring at Zhao Gao in turn, eyes staring at everyone in turn, suddenly understand Zhao Gao's intention.

Some timid people with a sense of justice bow their heads and dare not speak, because telling lies is sorry for their conscience, and telling the truth is afraid of being hurt by Zhao Gao in the future. Some honest people insist that it is manual rather than horse. There are also some adulterers who usually follow Zhao Gao closely and immediately support Zhao Gao's statement and say to the emperor, "This is indeed a swift horse!"

Afterwards, Zhao Gao punished those honest ministers who did not obey him by various means, and even copied them.

4. Qin Qiong sells horses.

[Interpretation] Qin Qiong: First name. Metaphor hero's ending

[Source] Chu Qingren won the romance of Sui and Tang Dynasties

His name is Uncle Bao, and he is from Shandong. He was the founding hero of the Tang Dynasty, participated in the Wagang Army Uprising in Henan, and was a general of ancient Shimi. After the collapse of the wagang army, Qin gradually became a general under his leadership.

Qin enjoys a high reputation among the people, because the two novels, Romance of Sui and Tang Dynasties and Shuo Tang Dynasty, both emphasize Qin. In The Romance of Sui and Tang Dynasties and Said Tang Dynasty, there are stories about Qin Qiong selling horses. It is said that Qin Qiong was in trouble in Luzhou, so poor that he couldn't even afford to stay in a hotel. First he pawned his personal weapon, the Golden Double Mace, and then he forced himself to sell his mount, Huang Ma. But people are unlucky, everything goes wrong, and no one even wants a horse. Fortunately, when I met an old man selling firewood, I was moved by compassion and led Qin to say, "There is an Erxian Village outside Ximenwai 15. The owner of the village is Shan Hao Xiong Xin, ranking second. People call it Second Hospital. I want to buy a good horse for my friends. " Qin Qiong heard about Dan Xiong Xin's name in Luzhou for a long time, so he introduced him to Erxian Village to meet Mr. Yamaji. Ashamed to say his real name and surname, he only called Wang and took the horse price and left. Later, Dan Xiong Xin learned from others that the horse was sold by Qin Qiong of Jinan, Shandong Province, and immediately caught up with him, holding Qin Qiong's face and saying, "Uncle Bao, you want to kill Shan Cecilia Yip."

5. An old horse knows the way

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Qi Huangong of Qi and Guan Zhong, the prime minister, crusaded against the solitary bamboo country and were deceived into the desert by the enemy. Look at the night again, but I see a vast expanse of flat sand, dark fog, cold and mournful groups of crying ghosts, and hate Taiwan. Guan Zhong said: "I have heard for a long time that there is a dry sea in the north, which is extremely powerful. This is the place, so I can't move forward. " Urgent education makes the army retreat and bring fire. When it meets the wind, it will be extinguished and it will not burn. The accompanying sergeants played golden drums, one to protect Yin, and the other to make the teams gather together. Seeing the danger in the valley, Guan Zhong urged him to find a way out, but he ran here and there, and there was no way out. Guan Zhong said, "I know the old horse knows the way. Most of them are from Mobei. You can pick some old horses and see where they go. " Duke Huan did as he told him, took some old horses, led them first, and made a detour out of Taniguchi.

6. Nine tall horses.

This story comes from Liezi's Fu Shuo and tells a very important philosophy, which is of practical significance to young people today. Don't miss it. The story is not long, no matter how busy you are, you must read it. Remember: it will affect your life!

We all know that Bole is good at watching horses, and modern people call people who are good at discovering talents Bole. This story tells that Bole is old and needs to retire. Qin Mugong went up to him and said, You are too old to see the horse yourself. I need a swift horse now. Do any of your descendants deserve this position? Bole replied: There are two horses in the world: a good horse and a swift horse. A good horse can be identified by its appearance and physique, but a swift horse is not in its shape but in its spirit, which seems to be extinguished between its existence and non-existence. Such a horse runs fast, its feet are not stained with dust, and its car leaves no trace. My descendants are all ordinary talents. They can identify good horses for you, but they can't identify swift horses. Bole didn't take the opportunity to recommend his children like ordinary people, but said he couldn't, which is sincere and credible.

Bole saw that Qin Mugong was worried, so he added, "A swift horse can be compared with others. I have a friend who usually bears firewood and grows vegetables with me. His name is Jiufanggao, and his horse-matching skills are not below mine. Please meet him.

Mu Gong was overjoyed and took this man in and told him to find Maxima. Three months later, Jiufanggao came back with a dusty report: "A swift horse was found on the sand dune." Mu Gong was overjoyed and quickly asked, "What about that horse?" He replied, "A yellow mare." Someone sent me a look. It was a dark horse, and Mu Gong was unhappy.

He summoned Bole and said to him, "There is a mistake. The man you introduced is wrong about whether the horse is yellow, black, male or female. How can you recognize a swift horse? "

Bole sighed and said, "Has the height of the nine squares reached this level? Your majesty doesn't know, this is where he is more than 1000 times stronger than me! "

Facing the dumbfounded mu gong, he went on to say, "what you can see is a secret." He can go deep into the essence of the horse and ignore its details, gain insight into the essence of the horse and forget its superficial phenomena. He only sees what he should see, not the details; Only pay attention to the essence that he should pay attention to and abandon those superficial phenomena. " Excited, Bole finally said a meaningful sentence: "A clever equestrian like Jiu Fanggao is not only precious in horses!"

The horse has arrived, and it really is a swift horse.

The story of Jiufang Gaoxiangma reminds me that in life, there is often another situation: wisdom, "oil leaks in a big jar and sesame seeds are everywhere." Things are different. We always have to face many problems. We should learn great wisdom from Nine, learn to be "smart as a fool, clumsy as a great skill", grasp the big and let go of the small, and learn to be confused about small things and smart about big things.

Attached to the original:

Qin Mugong said that Bole said: "Zi Lao, can I be a horse seeker with my surname?" Bole said to him, "A good horse can be said to have the same bones and muscles. The horse in the world, if destroyed, if lost, if lost. If this person loses contact. Ministers' sons are all talented. You can tell a good horse, but you can't tell a horse in the world. I have nine parties with people who are worried about food, for horses, not for ministers. Please look. " Mu Gong saw it and ordered him to beg for a horse. Instead, it was March. The newspaper said, "I see. Just in the sand dunes. " Mu Gong said, "What horse is there?" Right: "It's yellow." It is convincing and embarrassing. Mu Gong doesn't talk. Call Bole and say, "Defeat! If the son makes a horse, how can he know the color? " Bole sighed and said, "What about this? Yes, that's why there are thousands of ministers and countless others If you look at it, it is a secret. Get the essence and forget the roughness, forget the outside. See what they see, not what they can't see; See what they see, but leave what they can't see. If the height is a horse, then people are more expensive than horses. " When the horse arrives, it is the horse in the world.

8, 1000 dollars for bones

In 3 14 BC, civil strife broke out in Yan State, and neighboring Qi State took the opportunity to send troops and occupied part of Yan State's territory.

After Yan Zhaowang proclaimed himself emperor, he eliminated civil strife and determined to recruit talented people, revitalize Yan State and regain lost territory. Although Yan Zhaowang had such a call, not many people defected to him. So, Yan Zhaowang went to a man named Guo Kun and asked him how to get a virtuous person.

Guo Kui told Yan Zhaowang a story: Once upon a time, a monarch was willing to buy a swift horse with his daughter. But three years later, Maxima didn't buy it. An unknown person under the monarch volunteered to buy a swift horse, and the monarch agreed. It took the man three months to find a good horse somewhere. However, when he got to the house, the horse was already dead. So he bought the horse's bones with 500 gold and gave them back to the monarch. The monarch was very unhappy when he saw the horse bones bought at a very expensive price. The person who bought the horse bones said, I did this to let everyone know that your majesty really wanted to buy a horse at a high price, not to deceive others. Sure enough, in less than a year, someone sent three swift horses.

After telling the above story, Guo Kun said to Yan Zhaowang, "If your king really wants talents, you should let the whole world know that you really want talents, just like a monarch who bought a swift horse. You can start with me. People will see that people like me can be reused, and people who are more talented than me will come to you. " Yan Zhaowang thought this was reasonable, so he took Guo Kun as his teacher and gave him a generous salary. And let him establish "Huang Jintai" as a place to recruit talents from all over the world. Shortly after the news spread, some talented celebrities and sages came to express their willingness to help Yan Zhaowang govern the country. After more than 20 years' efforts, Yan finally became strong, defeated Qi and regained the occupied land.

At present, there is a Jintaichen village at the junction of Yixian and Dingxing in Hebei Province. It is said that this village is where Yan Zhaowang built Huang Jintai.
