What are some embarrassing facts in history?

After the reform and opening up, there are still people who dare to "proclaim themselves emperor" on the land of China. Do you think it is embarrassing?

Ding Xinglai, male, was born in Macheng County, Hubei Province in 1925. He was born blind. When he was young, he successively joined Taoist organizations such as Longmen Taoism, Guanyin Sect, and Xuanfo Sect. In 1945, he joined Taodeo Kinmen and accepted the brainwashing of feudal cults.

In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Hubei Province and other places launched a large-scale campaign to ban Huidaomen. Moral Kinmen was the first to bear the brunt. Its leader Lei Jinan was radical and reactionary. He also organized the "Moral Kinmen Founding Army" to oppose the government. He successively developed more than 10,000 Taoists and launched a rebellion. Lei Jinan claimed to be emperor, and was given the title of marshal, military advisor and other positions. He was arrogant and domineering and committed many evil deeds. The People's Liberation Army sent troops to encircle and suppress the rebellion and quickly quelled the rebellion. In 1953, Lei Jinan and more than 30 other key members were sentenced to death, Moral Kinmen was banned, and one of the members, Ding Xinglai, was sentenced to five years in prison.

In 1967, Ding Xinglai was released from prison. This guy with a bad mind is lazy and has nothing to do. After serving five years in prison, he not only failed to reflect on his mistakes and start a new life, but also made plans to return to his old career.

The Dabie Mountains are located at the junction of Hubei and Anhui and have a strategic geographical location. During the Liberation War, Liu and Deng’s armies once “marched thousands of miles into the Dabie Mountains” to launch a strategic counterattack against the Kuomintang. The Dabie Mountains are high in mountains and rivers, sparsely populated and inconvenient in transportation. The natural resources here are poor, the living environment is closed, and the production methods are backward, which makes the local farmers generally have low cultural level and ignorant and rigid thinking. In addition, medical conditions are extremely backward and it is difficult to treat illnesses, so many people fear ghosts and gods.

Ding Xinglai took the opportunity to sneak into the Dabie Mountains, taking advantage of the feudal ignorance of the locals, and promoted that he was the "Baizi Immortal" who descended to earth, ruled the three realms from heaven, and descended to earth to save those who were destined to "go to heaven and become immortals." wait. The local farmers had little knowledge and were quickly confused by Ding Xinglai, and they joined the "Moral Kinmen" one after another. Ding Xinglai developed Taoist disciples in Hubei and Anhui in the name of "expelling evil spirits and curing diseases" and "pursuing destined people". During this period, he used methods such as "diagnosing diseases" and "immortal energy" to coax and threaten with evil words, and deceived and raped 55 women, ranging in age from over 60 to over 10 years old. Among the women who were deceived and raped, there were mothers and daughters, sisters-in-law, sisters, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and in-laws.

In 1981, Ding Xinglai went to the home of a believer, Jiang, and used the pretext of being "possessed by a god" to preach to believers that the "End of the Third Period" had arrived, the "True God" was about to ascend the throne, and the world would belong to Ding. People are in charge. Soon, Ding Xinglai held an enthronement ceremony in the courtyard of Jiang's family, and nearly a hundred believers shouted long live. Then, Ding Xing came to confer officials and titles, and more than 30 people became "ministers of the court" and were given official seals. They were so shameless that it was embarrassing.

What is even more shameful is that on the night when Ding Xinglai ascended the throne, he set up a Datong bunk in Jiang's home, slept with four women including Wu and Jiang who were named empresses of the West Palace, and committed adultery. After that, Ding Xinglai, who had tasted the sweetness, held at least four enthronement ceremonies. After each ceremony, he slept with at least three more women. His behavior was outrageous.

Ding Xinglai’s disgusting behavior and violation of moral laws attracted the attention of superior departments.

In the summer of 1990, under the guidance of the Public Security Department of the Huanggang Administrative Office, the Public Security Bureau of Macheng City, Hubei Province, jointly launched a crackdown on Moral Kinmen with the public security bureaus of the disaster-stricken areas. Nine bases of activities were destroyed by force. Nine key members were interrogated, many Taoists were arrested, and 277 pieces of various evidence were seized. The resurgent "Moral Golden Gate" was finally eliminated. This shameless man who had been the "Emperor of the Valley" for 10 years got the punishment he deserved.

I'm Sasha, let me answer.

One of the embarrassing things is that foreign heads of state are afraid of coming to China for state banquets.

Many people think that the state banquet is so wonderful, with delicacies from all over the country, and everyone is not rushing to attend the state banquet.

That's not the case at all.

Most of the dignitaries from various countries who attended the state banquet were barely coping with a diplomatic ceremony and etiquette.

Most people just ate something casually at the state banquet, and some even had a symbolic touch.

Most foreign heads of state are not used to Chinese food, and are even afraid of Chinese food.

Our country did not have much experience in the initial state banquets. Most of them only entertained foreigners with what the Chinese thought was the best.

Foreigners are often very uncomfortable.

There are several main points:

First, only Huaiyang cuisine is suitable for state banquets.

Many people are surprised that there are eight major cuisines in China, but in the end only Huaiyang cuisine dominates the Wulin.

Other cuisines were initially experimented with. However, none of them suit the taste of foreigners.

The final conclusion is: "Sichuan cuisine is relatively spicy, and most foreign guests can't stand it; Shandong cuisine has thick oil and red sauce, which has a strong taste, and foreign guests are not used to it; northern cuisine has a lot of barbecue, which is demanding on teeth and gastrointestinal. Many foreign guests are older and are not suitable for this; Cantonese food is rich in seafood, and it is difficult for foreign guests’ stomachs to adapt to it when they eat it for the first time. In this comparison, Huaiyang food will easily ‘win’.”

Second. , what the Chinese consider to be good materials is difficult for foreigners to accept.

The choice of food for the state banquet is very impressive.

The state banquet chef introduced this: All raw materials come from fixed channels and adopt strict standards. For example, vegetables are all organic vegetables and no chemical fertilizers can be added to avoid damage caused by harmful substances. There are also strict regulations on the parts of raw materials required for cooking, such as "boiled cabbage". This dish usually only uses cabbage that is three and a half inches tall, with green leaves and thick flesh, and the sticks are removed to leave the three-leaf tender heart.

In addition, all materials selected for the state banquet must be carefully selected from their place of origin. For example, if the bird's nest is not from Thailand, it will not be used; if the shark's fin is not from the South China Sea, it will not be served on the table; and the golden jujube can only be used from Leling.

Even so, it is difficult for foreigners to eat bird's nests, shark's fins, and sea cucumbers.

Just like the Chinese do not accept high-grade caviar.

It is said that Nixon once passed on his experience to subsequent US presidents and secretaries of state: Never mind what is under the fork? Just put it in your mouth.

Even so, some people were so scared that they peed.

Once, for some unknown reason, I was having a meeting in Guangxi, and the famous local dish "Dragon Tiger Fight" was served on the table.

The fighting between dragons and tigers at that time cannot be eaten today.

The snake is a highly venomous snake (today it is a protected animal), and the cat is a civet.

The foreign guests didn’t know what it was at first, so they just took a few bites. After knowing the contents of the dish, the diplomat wrote in his memoirs: For a moment, I felt like there was a fight between dragon and tiger in my stomach.

Third, the chefs are of high quality, but foreigners are not used to it.

For a long time, foreigners were not accustomed to traditional Chinese food. Back then, when Chinese people opened restaurants abroad, they had to localize their tastes, otherwise the restaurants would easily go bankrupt.

There are 160 chefs who cook the dishes for the state banquet, ranging from special, special, advanced to intermediate, including 1 chief chef, and 8 hot and cold, pastry, and Western dishes. The head chef and deputy chef are all well-known names in the food industry.

These chefs come from all over the world. In addition to high political quality, they must also be "upright and young" and must pass the political review. They also have high cultural quality requirements. In addition to being good at spooning, they are also required to be able to study the customs of various countries. Culture knows how to cook famous dishes and snacks from all over the country. It varies from person to person and changes with the customer according to the different service objects.

Even so, many foreigners still cannot accept the taste of Chinese food.

When it comes to the fact that the Anti-Japanese War was a protracted war, everyone’s first reaction would be to say that China’s biggest advantage at that time was its large number of people. Japan only had so many people, and China had more than 400 million people. How could it not defeat Japan? Even if the Japanese have good equipment, they can't hold back the large number of Chinese people. Compared with Japan, the number of troops is almost unlimited. Just dragging them will drag the Japanese to death. But this is actually a misunderstanding. At the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, China did not have an advantage compared to the total military strength of the Japanese.

Because the Nationalist Government had not established a military service system at that time, it was very difficult to replenish the army. It was also difficult to transform China's advantage in population size into an advantage in army quantity.

When the Anti-Japanese War began, all the various forces in China, including the Central Army and local warlord forces, were counted together, with about three million people. In addition to the troops who had to stay in the local areas to maintain public order, The total number of troops that can be mobilized to fight the Japanese on the front line is approximately 1.3 million. Once there are a large number of casualties in a war, the only way to replenish the casualties is to draw troops from the local security corps. Therefore, in the early stages of the Anti-Japanese War in the North China Battlefield and the Battle of Songhu, in order to cope with the unfavorable situation on the battlefield, various provinces had begun to reorganize local security forces into regular armies in large numbers and sent them to the front line.

Therefore, in the Battle of Songhu and Xuzhou, the Chinese army showed relatively good combat effectiveness. It was able to achieve certain victories in local battlefields and caused relatively large casualties to the Japanese army. Especially local warlords, after the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, massively expanded their troops and greatly expanded their original troops. For example, the Guangxi troops in Guangxi originally had only one army, the Seventh Army. After the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, they were immediately expanded into three armies, namely the Seventh Army, the Thirty-first Army, and the Forty-eighth Army, and twelve divisions, making them appear to be strong. Although the 60th Army of the Yunnan Army had only one corps designation, after expansion, it had three full divisions, six brigades, and 12 regiments, with a total strength of more than 50,000 people. It suddenly became the Xuzhou Army. A relatively large force on the battlefield.

But what is very embarrassing is that after experiencing several large-scale battles in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War in North China and the Battle of Songhu and Xuzhou, both the Central Army and the local warlord forces suffered relatively large casualties. , I must add, it’s even worse at this time. The Central Army can continue to draw security forces from the provinces it can control to supplement them. The local warlord forces that actually control a certain province can also be reorganized after the war, and then draw troops from their own territory to supplement and enrich them. After a period of time, After a while of training, you can go into battle again.

For example, the Gui Army's initial six divisions suffered more than half of the casualties on the Songhu battlefield. Therefore, by the Xuzhou battle, the Gui Army could only be used for local defense and was unable to serve as the main mobile combat corps in the theater. After the Battle of Xuzhou, the 60th Army of the Yunnan Army could only reduce the three divisions to one division, and the remaining cadres were organized into a training team. The other two divisions could only go to the rear to pick up new recruits for supplementary training and training, and then resume their training. Enter the battlefield. The same is true for the Sichuan Army. Although the Sichuan Army failed to catch up in the Battle of Songhu, it was consumed a lot in the Jiaxing area. After participating in the Battle of Nanjing, it was basically dispersed. After the war, it could only be replenished from Sichuan. The same situation happened to Sun Zhen's 22nd Army of the Sichuan Army in the Battle of Xuzhou.

What is even worse is that the local troops who have lost their territory cannot be replenished once they suffer too much loss at the front. For example, Pang Bingxun's Forty Army and Sun Lianzhong's Second Army, although their ranks are both high, are actually not large in number. For example, Sun Lianzhong is a group army in name, and should have at least two corps under its jurisdiction, but in fact there are only three divisions and one independent brigade, with a total force of only 25,000 people, and the equipment is very poor. Many soldiers still have weapons produced in the late Qing Dynasty. Made in Hanyang, the average person has less than one hand per person. There is really no other way but to hold a big blade and be ready to fight the enemy at any time.

We often talk about miscellaneous armies. In fact, not all local warlord troops are called miscellaneous armies. Most of the local warlord troops that actually control a certain territory are of decent strength. After the battle, they can replenish their own troops. This is called local The troops no longer have territory under their control and can only rely on the troops of the Central Army. After the war, they can only wait for the Central Army to replenish the original warlord troops and then replenish themselves with the original warlord troops. This is a miscellaneous army. For example, the Northwest Army and the Northeast Army at that time had no actual territory under their control, so it was difficult to replenish the troops every time they were exhausted. They could only be continuously downsized, and even their designations were cancelled. This was also a miscellaneous army in the national army. main components.

Therefore, after the concentrated consumption of two large-scale battles, the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Xuzhou, the Chinese army actually no longer has much advantage even in terms of numbers. Although the Nationalist Government quickly began to establish a military service system and recruited troops from local areas to supplement the frontline troops, by the time of the Wuhan Battle, most of the troops did not have time to conduct relatively complete training and rushed into the battlefield. In addition, after the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, German aid and Soviet aid were cut off one after another, and a large number of lost weapons and equipment could not be replaced. Therefore, before and after the Wuhan Battle, the Chinese army was in an extremely difficult situation, both in terms of troops and weapons and equipment.

Just an hour ago, when I was using the restroom at the high-speed rail station, I accidentally walked into the women's restroom. When I looked at the lady who was cleaning the women's restroom, the scene was extremely embarrassing.

I happened to see this question, so I talked about two embarrassing things I have heard of, one happened in the Ming Dynasty and the other happened in India.

If you ask about the largest, longest and most numerous maritime voyage in ancient China, many people will definitely say: "It was Zheng He's voyage to the West."

No Wrong, it was indeed Zheng He’s voyages to the West.

In the third year of Yongle (1405), Emperor Yongle ordered Zheng He, the eight-treasure eunuch, to sail to the West. From that year on, Zheng He led the world's largest fleet from Nanjing and sailed seven times to the Western Ocean, reaching as far as East Africa and the Red Sea. He promoted the national prestige of the Celestial Empire and promoted the economic development of the Ming Dynasty.

However, during Zheng He's fourth voyage to the West, an extremely embarrassing and interesting thing happened.

In November 1412, Zheng He made his fourth voyage to the West. When they sailed to Bengal, the King of Malin paid tribute to two strange animals named "Kilin" and exaggeratedly called them As a mythical beast.

Although Zheng He had made three voyages to the West and his experience was far beyond that of others, this was the first time he saw such a strange-looking animal, and it was also called a mythical beast, which aroused his interest. , and quickly asked the accompanying official: "What is this?" The official did not dare to neglect and introduced it to Zheng He. When he said that the name of this animal was "Jilin", Zheng He's eyes lit up.

"Kilin", "Qilin", this thing can't be my heavenly beast "Qilin", right?

Zheng He was extremely excited, thinking that if he brought the mythical beast "Qilin" back, His Majesty would be very happy, and his status in His Majesty's heart would definitely be further improved.

On August 12, 1415, Zheng He returned home from his fourth voyage to the West. Different from the previous times, when Zheng He walked to Fengtian Gate, he found that Zhu Di was already waiting there.

When Zheng He held the so-called mythical beast "Qilin", everyone including Zhu Di was shocked.

This mythical beast is actually five or six meters tall, with an elk body and horse hooves, which is extremely weird. Zhu Di's dragon face was overjoyed, and the mythical beast appeared in this world. This was auspicious. Doesn't this mean that he ruled well? Shen Du of the Hanlin Academy was immediately ordered to write an article to record the incident. A Ming Dynasty painter also specially painted a "Picture of Ruiying Qilin".

What Yongle Emperor Zhu Di would never have imagined 600 years ago is that the so-called mythical beast "Qilin" is just the giraffe that is now found all over the zoo.

India's train system is "world-famous". Whenever I see on TV that tens of thousands of people hang (climb) all over the train, I can't help but be surprised.

According to international standards, the "high-speed rail" with a speed of only 160 kilometers per hour is indeed somewhat worthy of its name. It can only be called a "semi-high-speed rail" at best. But Indians are still looking forward to it.

Later, India announced the results of the investigation. The "semi-high-speed rail" was suspected of hitting a herd of cattle during operation, causing damage to the control system.

It seems that this is because India usually brags too much and can't even stand the bull, haha~

During the Western Jin Dynasty, the extravagant and absurd trend in the upper-class aristocratic society was very serious. People not only love to show off their wealth, but also love to compare. Among them, the story of the fight for wealth between Shi Chong and Wang Kai is the most well-known to the world.

Shi Chong and Wang Kai were both court officials during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty. One was a general, and the other was a regular attendant. They also had the same identity, that is, they were rich men.

Round 1

Wang Kai used sugar and rice to wipe the pot, and Shi Chong used candles as firewood;

Wang Kai used purple silk cloth Cloth barriers were placed on both sides of the road to prevent people from peeking. The curtain stretched forty miles, and Shi Chong immediately used fifty miles of brocade to make the barrier;

Wang Kai imitated the Western Han Dynasty palace and used pepper and clay When painting the walls, Shi Chong used red stone resin to paint the walls.

Wang Kai's heart: Shi Jilun, are you a devil?

Round 2

Emperor Wu of Jin was Wang Kai's nephew, so Emperor Wu of Jin often supported him when Wang Kai and Shi Chong were more wealthy.

Once Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty rewarded Wang Kai with a coral tree that was more than two feet high.

So Wang Kai quickly showed it to Shi Chong: Do you think my coral tree is beautiful?

After Shi Chong looked at it, he knocked it with Tie Ruyi, and the coral tree broke into pieces. Wang Kai felt heartbroken and felt that Shi Chong was jealous, so he said in a stern tone: Shi Jilun, are you jealous of my baby? Shi Chong said there is nothing to be jealous about, I will pay you if you die. So he asked his servants to carry out his own coral trees. There were six or seven dazzling coral trees three or four feet high, and there were even more two-foot-tall coral trees like Wang Kai. Wang Kai felt very uncomfortable.

Wang Kai's heart: Shi Jilun, tell me, have you been embezzled? Why do you have so many coral trees in your home? !

Third round

Shi Chong had three things that made Wang Kai very embarrassed:

The captain of the central guard told Wang Kai that although beans were difficult to boil, Shi Chong’s family’s The cook first boils the beans and makes them into minced beans. When guests come, he only needs to cook the porridge and add the minced beans into it. The leeks (ping) and ji (ji) eaten in winter are also mashed leek roots and added with wheat seedlings.

The driver told Wang Kai that the cows on the bullock cart were not running slowly, but the driver could not keep up, so he controlled the cows. If you need to speed up, turn the cart sideways so that the cattle can gallop away.

After Wang Kai knew the true situation, he did as they said, so he won the next time. When Shi Chong knew the reason for the victory, he killed the person who leaked the secret.

Wang Kai's heart: Shi Jilun, how dare you say you're not jealous of me! Otherwise, why are you so afraid of losing to me?

Shi Chong was an extremely extravagant man. He did everything extravagant. Even the toilet at home was often served by a dozen maids. They were all dressed up beautifully and in gorgeous clothes. There are also spices such as Jiajian powder and agarwood juice in the toilet. All kinds of things are very complete. Guests who go to the toilet are also asked to change into new clothes before coming out, which makes many guests feel embarrassed to go to the toilet.

When the wealthy Shi Chong was arrested, he lamented, "These slaves are actually trying to steal my property!" But when the person who escorted him said, "You know clearly that you are harming yourself because of your property." , why don't you disperse earlier?" Shi Chong was speechless.

Embarrassing things in ancient and modern times are all made fun of. Let’s talk about the embarrassing things of literati. The great poet Li Bai was looked down upon when he asked for help, and the great talent Tang Bohu escaped from his life by running naked. These things are all quite embarrassing.

The Anshi Rebellion broke out, and Li Heng proclaimed himself emperor in the north. The Supreme Emperor wanted to restrain his son, so he appointed his eighth son Yongwang Li Lin to be in charge of the four military envoys and to oversee the military affairs in the south of the Yangtze River.

The ambitious Li Lin led his troops along the river from Jiangling east, claiming that he would outflank Anlu Mountain from the waterway. In order to boost morale and engage in propaganda and public opinion war, Li Lin invited Li Bai, a great poet, out Mountain. At that time, Li Bai was living in seclusion in Lushan Mountain, admiring the Lushan Waterfall. Since a royal family member asked him to come out, Li Bai was of course willing to help. Although "the emperor couldn't come on board the ship", he still hoped from the bottom of his heart that the goods in his belly would be sold to the emperor's family. of.

Li Bai fell at Li Lin's feet and sang praises, and wrote the "Song of King Yong's Eastern Patrol" with a few strokes of his pen. Unfortunately, King Yong was suppressed by the army sent by Emperor Suzong of the Tang Dynasty, and Li Bai was imprisoned for a few days without any glory. In jail. Of course, the crime was treason. The two princes were fighting each other, but Li Bai got involved. In this muddy water, Li Bai failed to catch any fish and instead lost himself.

Li Bai hurriedly tried to find a way to save himself in prison. He wrote to his old friend Gao Shi, known as the frontier poet, for help. Gao Shi was then the military governor of Huainan. He did not seek refuge with Li Lin like Li Bai did at first, but instead bet on Li Lin. As expected, Li Heng's official career was prosperous. But the great poet Gao Shi rolled his eyes at Li Bai and wrote back, saying that Li Bai has no power, no soldiers, and no power, and there is no value in saving you.

This is the attitude of people in a culture on horseback towards a great poet who is in prison. Li Bai is worthless. It is estimated that after Li Bai saw the reply, in addition to being embarrassed, the shadow in his heart was infinite.

"Telling out the questions in the examination" made Tang Bohu look like a frosted eggplant. He bid farewell to officialdom, became discouraged about his official career, and decided to stay with his poems and calligraphy for the rest of his life. Unexpectedly, Zhu Chenhao, the king of Ning in Nanchang, Jiangxi, wanted to rebel. Like those who planned to rebel in the past, he had to enrich his shogunate and train his own dog-headed military advisers. Prince Ning went around recruiting "talents" with high salaries. Unfortunately, Tang Bohu was also attracted by him and was killed. He was recruited to Nanchang with a lot of money.

Tang Bohu, who had suffered losses in the officialdom before, had a bit of a political sense this time. He felt that Prince Ning's mob was gestating an unprecedented existential crisis. If he did not escape in time, the future would be unlucky. But what comes is easy, what goes is hard. It is as difficult for Tang Bohu to get rid of the Ningwang Group as it is now to successfully escape from the MLM team that he accidentally entered.

The talented scholar of the Tang Dynasty was familiar with the collection of classics and history, and he must have known the trick of Sun Bin pretending to be crazy and making Sima Yi act out Alzheimer's disease. He also pretended to be crazy. Yes, you read that right, Tang Bohu was running naked on the streets of Nanchang. Prince Ning himself was uneducated and incompetent, and the people he collected were all people from the market like Zhang Sangouzi and Li Simazi. He had no idea that Tang Bohu was hiding the truth. If he didn't understand history, he would suffer a loss. Seeing Tang Bohu go crazy and behaving like this would disgrace the image of Prince Ning's palace. By leaving him to fend for himself, Tang Caizi had a chance to escape.

Tang Bohu, who has been admired countless times by later generations, was both brilliant and charming. As he got older, he had to run naked for a while, not for art but for survival. As for whether he was embarrassed, I guess he couldn’t care so much at that time. of.

Let’s briefly talk about embarrassing things in ancient times.

Talking about this ancient embarrassment, there are actually many

Let’s talk about the Battle of Sashui during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Most people have never heard of this battle. At that time, the Chu State was ruled by King Chu Cheng, who wanted to regain the hegemony of the Central Plains, so he sent troops to attack the Zheng State, and the Jin State went to attack the Cai State near Chu State. As a result, the Jin and Chu armies faced each other across the river. No one dared to cross the river easily, but neither of them wanted to return without success, so they spent time like this

After a long time, Jin The Chu State sent Yang Chufu to persuade Dou Bo of the Chu State. He told Dou Bo that there is no point in wasting our efforts like this. It is better to do this. Either you retreat thirty miles and let us cross the river and fight you, or we retreat three miles. Ten miles away you cross the river and fight us. When Dou Bo from Chu State heard this, he thought that this was a good idea, so he agreed with Yang Chufu's statement. So, Dou Bo decided to let the Jin State retreat thirty miles, and the Chu State crossed the river for a decisive battle.

However, Cheng Daxin, the counselor of the Chu State, thought this was unfortunate and thought that the Jin people were too cunning. If they were attacked by them while crossing the river, they would suffer a big loss. Dou Bo thinks it makes sense. So Jin was asked to cross the river, and Chu retreated thirty miles. Yang Chufu was indeed cunning. When he saw Chu retreating, he immediately announced to the army that Chu was afraid of a decisive battle with Jin and had fled. He then returned to Jin with the Jin army.

This is actually because Yang Chufu saw that his family's food and grass were running out, so he had to retreat, and it was not an option to waste it like this. They were retreating and were afraid of Chu's pursuit, so they came up with this idea. The most bizarre thing is that King Chu Cheng thought that Dou Bo did this because he received bribes from the Jin State, so he killed Dou Bo.
