021 Beauty Trick
The beauty plan is the thirty-first plan in "Thirty-six Strategies".
"Thirty-six Strategies" or "Thirty-six Strategies" refers to the 36 strategies of the art of war in ancient China, which originated in the Northern and Southern Dynasties and was written in the Ming and Qing dynasties. It is a military book based on ancient Chinese military thought and rich experience in struggle, and is one of the long-standing intangible cultural heritage of the Chinese nation.
Liutao. Wen Fa said: "Raise their rebellious ministers to fascinate them, and enter the lewd voice of beautiful women to confuse them." This means that for an enemy that is difficult to conquer by military action, it is necessary to use "sugar-coated shells" to defeat the enemy's generals ideologically and volitively, so that they lose their internal combat effectiveness, and then attack.
It is generally believed that this strategy was first applied in the Battle of Wuyue in the Spring and Autumn Period.
Gou Jian was defeated by his husband first.
Wu Wangfu sent Gou Jian and his wife to serve in the palace of King Wu to humiliate him.
Goujian, the king of Yue, groveled in front of Wu Wangfucha, greeted him in every possible way, deceived Fucha's trust, and finally let him return to Yue. Later, the Yue State took advantage of the fire to rob and finally eliminated the Wu State.
How did the "fire" burn?
It turned out that Gou Jian successfully used the "beauty trick".
After Gou Jian was released back to Yueguo, he tried his courage and did not forget his shame.
The state of Wu is strong, relying on force, and the state of Yue cannot win.
Doctor Yue offered him a plan: "The high-flying bird, died from the food, the fish of the deep spring, died from the bait, if you want to restore the shame of the country, you should do what it likes, and weaken its fighting spirit, so that the husband can be worse than death." ”
So Gou Jian selected two peerless beauties: Xi Shi and Zheng Dan, gave them to his husband, and presented rare jewels to Wu Wangjin every year.
Fucha thought that Gou Jian had surrendered to him, so he didn't doubt it at all.
The husband drank and had fun with the beauties all day long, and even the advice of the minister Wu Zixu could not be listened to at all.
Later, Wu attacked Qi, and Gou Jian also sent troops to help King Wu to attack Qi, so as to show loyalty and paralyze the husband.
After Wu Guo won, Gou Jian also went to Wu Guo to congratulate him in person.
The husband is greedy for women, and he is getting more and more powerful day by day, and he doesn't want to ask about political affairs at all.
Wu Yuxu's advice was ineffective, but he was forced to commit suicide.
Gou Jian sees it in his eyes and is happy in his heart.
In 482 B.C., when there was a great drought in the country of Wu, when Gou Jian took the Fucha to the north to meet the alliance, he highlighted the surprise army to attack Wu, and the Wu State was finally destroyed by the Yue, and the Fucha could only die.
In fact, the application of the "beauty trick", the earliest is Yao Shun Chan Rang.
Yao's position is not Chan and Shun, but usurpation and seizure.
In the struggle for Yao Shun to seize the throne, Di Yao implemented the beauty plan, which was the earliest beauty plan in history, and won the victory of the first struggle with Yao.
So far, the aura of beauty has shone in ancient and modern history.
The beauty trick has been tried and tested.
During the Three Kingdoms period, Sun Quan gave Liu Bei a beauty plan.
The implementer of the beauty plan is Sun Quan's sister Sun Shangxiang (alias Sun Ren, Xiao Ji).
Her father Sun Jian, and her elder brothers Sun Ce and Sun Quan are all heroes who call for wind and rain and dominate the storm, Iron Horse Jingo, and tragic and generous characters.
But the hero's life was short, and Sun Ce was only 26 years old when he died. At that time, Sun Quan was about 20 years old, and he inherited his father's and brother's last wishes, fought tenaciously, and created a new world.
The Sun family's world is indeed hard-won, and every inch of land is bought with blood.
When Cao Cao wanted to sweep Jiangnan, Sun Quan cooperated with Liu Bei out of helplessness.
At the beginning, Liu Bei had no place to stand, so he borrowed Jingzhou from Dongwu for temporary shelter and agreed to return it later.
After the Battle of Chibi, Sun Quan wanted to get Jingzhou back, but Liu Bei repeatedly shirked it for various reasons.
Jingzhou is in today's Hubei area, at that time, not only abundant products, grain and grass are abundant, but also Jingzhou is located between Xichuan and Dongwu, which has always been a place for soldiers to fight.
What's more, Sun Jian was killed in the war to capture Jingzhou, so Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou and did not pay it back, which was simply unacceptable to Sun Quan.
But as soon as he mentioned the return of Jingzhou, Liu Bei cried loudly (this guy's tear ducts are quite developed).
Sun Quan really had no choice, Zhou Yu, the Zhiduoxing of Eastern Wu, offered Sun Quan a plan, taking advantage of Liu Bei's loss of his wife, and gave Liu Bei his sister Sun Shangxiang as a step-room as a bait to earn Liu Bei, and someone held hostages in his hands, afraid that he would not return Jingzhou?
Sun Quan shook his head and said, "That big-tailed wolf, how can you come to our Dongwu?" ”
Zhou Yu said, "Let's just say that the old man Wu Guotai loves this youngest daughter very much, and he is reluctant to marry far away, so he asked Liu Bei to go to Dongwu to complete the marriage." ”
Sun Quan thought about it, thought about it, and said, "Then try it, Liu Bei can really come to our Dongwu, whether he gets married or not, but he can't help it." ”
Zhou Yu said, "That's it." ”
- Actually, Sun Quan didn't really want to marry his sister to Liu Bei.
Because he knew that Liu Bei was in his 50s at the time, and his sister was only in her 20s; Liu Bei previously had Mrs. Gan, Mrs. Mu, and Mrs. Mi in name (I don't know how many ladies there are behind the scenes), Rong Ma is a master who grew up in the women's river, and his sister is a big girl who has not bloomed a flower, how can he let his sister follow him?
It's just that Liu Xun was deceived and returned to Jingzhou Mansion, and a beauty plan was implemented.
Liu Bei originally had three nominal wives, but in the war and chaos, they were all dead and dead, and they needed to continue a wife, besides, at that time, Liu Bei was still very weak in Jingzhou, with a strong Cao Cao in the north and Sun Quan, the head of the land in the east, and their main strategic enemy was Cao Cao, and the basic policy of foreign policy should be "Lianwu to resist Cao".
Therefore, when Sun Quan sent an envoy Lu Su to Shu to express his willingness to marry Qin and Jin and jointly resist Cao's opinion, it was naturally an instant hit.
Sun Quan's beauty plan, naturally can't escape Zhuge Liang's eyes, he wants to do the plan, fake the show, go to Dongwu to marry the yellow flower girl, make a handful!
Liu Bei was a little skeptical, he said, "What if you detain me in Jiangdong?" ”
Zhuge Liang said, "You can go with confidence, buddy, I have my own clever plan to bankrupt Sun Erlang's cleverness." ”
In fact, Liu Bei's heart was stinging and scratching, and under his heart, there was Sun Shangxiang. However, he was afraid that he would die in the middle of the plan, and the two powers would be the lesser of the two, so he reluctantly agreed to Zhuge Liang's idea.
Zhuge Liang saw through Liu Bei's state of mind, so he sent the general Zhao Zilong to protect him, and gave him three tips, so that he could open which one when and when.
Zilong promised again and again, and in this way, in the second month of the twelfth year of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bei led a group of people to come to Jingkou by boat, and a group of drums and music were noisy, blowing and beating, and came to Wu State.
Liu Bei is even more, in a red groom dress, sitting on a horse with a smile - in his 50s, he will be a groom again, and his joy is beyond words.
