Shi Wenbo, the great doctor of the Jin Kingdom, reprived Zichan and said: In order to ensure the safety of the princes and guests, our country has built a hotel and built a high wall. Now that you've torn down the wall, who is responsible for the safety of the guests? Zichan replied: We Zheng Guoxiao, so we have to come on time to pay tribute. Your monarch did not have time to meet us this time. The gifts we bring are neither presumptuous nor exposed to the sun. I heard that in the past, when Duke Wen of Jin was the leader of the alliance, it was not like this to receive princes and guests. At that time, the hotel was spacious and beautiful, and the princes came, as if they were at home. Now, your palace is spacious, but the hotel is like a slave's hut, with a narrow door, and you can't even get into the car: you don't know when you will be received when the guests come. Isn't this intended to embarrass us?

Shi Wenbo went back to report to Jin Pinggong. Jin Pinggong knew that he was at a loss, so he apologized to Zichan for his mistake, and immediately ordered the construction to be carried out and the hotel was rebuilt.

But he never went, but said to his friends who persuaded him: "You all regard Yang Guozhong as stable as Mount Tai, but I think he is just an iceberg."

【Idiom Story】:

The disgust of the idiom "soldiers are not tired of deception" is: satisfaction, deception: deception. Fighting with troops allows you to confuse the opponent with as many deceptive tactics as possible in order to win.

This idiom comes from "Han Feizi. Difficult one", a courteous gentleman, not tired of faithfulness, between battle formations, not tired of deceit. It's just a deception.

In 633 BC, the state of Chu attacked the state of Song, and the state of Song appealed to the state of Jin for help. In the spring of the following year, Duke Wen of Jin sent troops to capture Chu's allies Cao and Wei, and asked them to break off relations with Chu before they could return to the country. Enraged, the state of Chu withdrew its siege of the state of Song and came to war with the state of Jin. The two armies faced each other at Chengpu (southwest of present-day Juancheng, Shandong).

When Duke Wen of Jin was a son, he was persecuted by his stepmother and fled to Chu State, where he was entertained by King Cheng of Chu. King Chu Cheng asked Chong'er how to repay him in the future, and Chong'er said: "You have all the beauties, silk, etc., what can I give you?" If I can return to my country to govern by your blessing, in the event of a war between the two countries, I will retreat three miles (ten miles). If the state of Chu still can't understand, the two sides will fight again. ”

In order to fulfill the promise of that year, Jin Wengong ordered a retreat of ninety miles. Ziyu, the general of the Chu State, led the Chu army to press on.

At that time, the state of Chu united Chen, Cai and other countries, and the army was strong; The Jin State united the Qi, Song and other countries, and the army was weak. How should we fight? Jin Wengong's uncle-in-law said: "I have heard such a saying: For a gentleman who pays attention to etiquette, he should emphasize more loyalty and credit, gain the trust of the other party, and use more deception to confuse the other party in the battle between you and me. You can deceive the enemy. ”

Duke Wen of Jin followed the strategy of the sub-criminal, first crushing the right flank of the Chu army composed of Chen and Cai's troops, and then the main force pretended to retreat, luring the left flank of the Chu army to pursue, and then attacked with ambushes. The left flank of the Chu army was defeated, and the Chinese army was also forced to retreat.

This is the famous battle of Chengpu in history, where the weak defeated the strong. After the victory of the Jin State, it allied with Qi, Lu, Song, Zheng, Cai, Ju, Wei and other parliaments and became the overlord of the princes.

In this story, another idiom is derived, "retreating and retreating", which is used as a metaphor for retreating or avoiding conflict and avoiding conflict.

[Idiom]: The soldier is fast

Pinyin: bingguishensu

[Explanation]: God speed: Extremely fast. The use of troops is particularly rapid.

【Idiom Story】:

The idiom "soldiers are noble and fast" means that the use of soldiers and swift action are valuable. It means that if you use your troops quickly, take them by surprise, and attack them unprepared, you will achieve victory.

This idiom comes from the Three Kingdoms. WEI Shu. Guo Jia's Biography", the soldier is fast. Now thousands of miles are attacking people, there are many burdens, it is difficult to make profits, and when they hear it, they must be prepared. I don't know how to leave a heavy baggage, and the light soldiers come out to cover up their surprise.

Guo Jia, whose name is Fengxiao, is a native of Yangzhai (now Yu County, Henan). He was resourceful and trusted and reused by Cao Cao.

Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao, who possessed Ji, Qing, You, and the four prefectures, and killed Yuan Shao's eldest son, Yuan Tan, and Yuan Shao's other two sons, Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi, fled and defected to the leader of the Karasuma tribe in the Liao River Valley. He took the opportunity to intrude on the border between the Han Dynasty and disrupted the normal production and life of the people in the border areas. Cao Cao was determined to go to conquer Yuan Shang and Badun, and some officials were worried that after the expedition, Liu Biao of Jingzhou would take the opportunity to send Liu Bei to attack Cao Cao's rear.

Guo Jia analyzed the situation at that time and said to Cao Cao: "You are now in the world, but Karasuma is located in a remote area, so he will definitely not be guarded. A surprise attack will surely wipe them out. If the timing is delayed, Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi can catch their breath and recollect the remnants, the Karasuma tribes will respond, and they will have ambitions, but I am afraid that Jizhou and Qingzhou will not belong to us again. Liu Biao is an empty talker, knowing that his talent is not as good as Liu Bei, he will not reuse Liu Bei, Liu Bei is not reused, and he is not willing to contribute more to Liu Biao. So you just have to rest assured that you won't have to worry about the expedition to Karasuma. ”

Cao Cao then led his army on the march. After arriving in Yi County (now Hebei), Guo Jia said to Cao Cao: "The use of soldiers is expensive. Now when fighting thousands of miles away, there are many military supplies, and the speed of the march is slow, and if the Karasuma people know the situation of our army, they will be prepared. It is better to leave behind the bulky ordnance and supplies, the troops are lightly armed, advance at a double speed, and take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness to attack, then you can win a great victory. ”

Cao Cao acted according to Guo Jia's plan, and the troops marched quickly to the garrison of Badundan. The Karasuma people responded in a panic and were defeated. Badun was killed, and Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi fled to Liaodong and were killed by Taishou Sun Kang.
