The whole sentence is "selling wheat to buy a steamer, not steaming steamed bread to fight for breath." Only by processing wheat into flour can steamed bread be steamed. Wheat is sold now. How can steamed bread be steamed without flour? There is no steamed bread to steam, and the steamer is not for steaming steamed bread, so what to steam? Then empty the steamer. Is that steaming (beating) steam (gas)?
It means to describe being a man of backbone.
Expand the data of the offensive and cutting wars in China's history —— Do not dispute steamed bread for breath.
First, after the "Jin Sanfen", they fought because of worship.
At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the State of Jin, one of the five tyrants in the Spring and Autumn Period, was divided among Wei, Han and Zhao. At this time, although the state of Jin lost all its territory, it still existed and had its own king. Of course, the role of the king may be more like a mascot.
There is bad blood between Wei, Zhao and Han. In order to disgust each other, they often choose to greet Jin Jun, that is, to pull the tiger skin as a banner. And every time one of the three countries says it wants to welcome Jin Jun, it will be attacked by the other two countries ... After the battle, it will return the land to the other side as a symbol of justice. ......
Second, Yang Guang, one of the most respected emperors in China, and the foreign wars in the Sui Dynasty.
If Wei, Zhao and Han are still open and secret, then they are out-and-out face lovers. As the imperial dynasty at that time, the Sui Dynasty not only defeated the East Turkic khanate (now Turkey) and recovered Vietnam, but also expanded the territory of China to an unprecedented extent.
In the end, the inheritance left by my father was destroyed because of Xiao Gaogouli (now Korea-North Korea). Therefore, Yang Guang is also regarded as an emperor who can lose his family more than Hu Hai. Why did you lose? Because Yang Guang fell into Goguryeo's fraudulent surrender plan many times, he finally ruined the core army of the Sui Dynasty. Was it really necessary to conquer Koguryo at that time?
The fact is not only unnecessary, but also may become a burden after the conquest, and the typical love of face is not good.
In this regard, Meng Man commented in "The Great Sui Fengyun": "Gentle and majestic. The only way is to annex the eight famine and cover the ages; Poetry, laughter, and pride in the past. Unexpectedly, the expedition to the north exhausted the people's strength, gave heroic wisdom and lost the hearts of the people. "
