At the end of Qin dynasty, surrounded by Zhao, Xiang Yu led the Chu army to come to the rescue. Xiang Yu has a hot temper and dares to fight hard. He used to be a lieutenant in the army, but he was killed because the main commander was timid. After crossing the Zhanghe River, Xiang Yu ordered the soldiers to take three days' dry food, smashed all the cooking pots in the army and sank all the ships crossing the river (in classical Chinese, it is called "cross the rubicon", and the bottom of the pot is the pot). He said to the soldiers, "This is a matter of success or failure, and Chiyou must be defeated in J days. Let's fight this time, only allowed to enter, not allowed to retreat; We will fight the enemy to the end and never retreat until we win! " The man saw the pot smashed and the ship sank, and there was no way out. Therefore, they are all determined to fight to the death with Qin Jun.
Xiang Yu's determination and courage greatly inspired the conference. Qin Jun was surrounded by Chu Jun, and Chu Bing was furious and shouted, which was overwhelming. They all have high morale and become more and more brave. One person should be ten, and ten people should be a hundred. After nine fierce battles, Zhang Han, the general of the State of Qin, who led the troops, was captured alive, and other soldiers fled after being killed, so the siege of the giant deer collapsed.
Han Xin and the last position are based on the same principle.
In the third year of Emperor Gaozu, Han Xin and Zhang Er led the troops to attack Wang Chenyu. One morning, just before dawn, Han Xin played the flag of a general and opened the mouth of Jingxing with great fanfare. Zhao opened the camp gate to meet the enemy, and the two sides fought fiercely for a long time. At this time, Han Xin and Zhang Er pretended to abandon the flag and fled back to the camp by the river. The army by the river opened the camp door wide to let them in, and then fought fiercely with Zhao. They nest together, Zhao really let the Han army stay behind, chasing Han Xin and. After Han Xin and Jiang entered the river, the whole army fought to the death, and Zhao could not be defeated. Han Xin sent two thousand cavalry commandos, and waited until all Zhao Shibing had gone out, then pursued the spoils. Immediately ran to Zhao's camp, pulled out all Zhao's flags and planted two China red flags. Zhao saw that Han Xin couldn't wait, so he wanted to go back to camp. But when he saw that his camp was covered with the red flags of the Han army, he panicked, thinking that the Han army had captured all the generals of the prince of Zhao, so he panicked and fled. Although Zhao often beheaded deserters, he couldn't stop the rout. The Han army immediately attacked before and after, defeated Zhao, killed him in the water, and captured Zhao Xie alive.
The generals offered the heads of their captives and enemies. They all congratulated Han Xin and asked Han Xin, "Sun Tzu's Art of War says,' The battle array should have its back to the mountain on the left and right, and its front and back to the water. "But this time, you told us to fight back and say,' Let's eat after defeating Zhao Jun!' We were not convinced, but we really won. What kind of tactics is this? "Han Xin said:" This tactic is also found in the art of war, but you just didn't pay attention! Didn't Sun Tzu's Art of War say,' You will die after being trapped'? Besides, I'm not usually a well-trained general. This is the so-called' driving ordinary people to fight, it is bound to kill them and make them fight for their own survival; If we let them live, they will all run away. In that case, can we still take the lead with them? "The generals were persuaded and said," Yes, your strategy is really beyond our ability. "
This is the battle, and so is the work we do today. If we have no spirit, tenacious struggle and adventure, especially when we encounter difficulties, and no spirit of "putting life and death at risk", how can we get rid of one predicament after another?
