Tears of History Deeply reflect on the value and significance of human civilization
There are countless sad moments in history that bring tears to our eyes. But tears only add to the sadness, not to the end.
1.Xiang Yu tears.
During the Chu-Han War, Xiang Yu was surrounded by Liu Bang's army at the wall. The Han army had 400,000 men, while the Chu army had only 100,000, and the Chu army ran out of food and grass.
In the evening, the Han army sang the Chu song outside. Xiang Yu was shocked, thinking that the Han army had occupied the entire Chu State.
Before that, Xiang Yu couldn't sleep, so he got up at night and drank and had fun.
I suddenly remembered the past:
In the battle of Julu, Daqin won more with less, and the world fell apart in one battle;
He is the only ** person in Xianyang and has the power to become a hero in the world;
In the Battle of Pengcheng, Liu Bang's 560,000 allied troops were defeated by only 30,000 cavalry, and Liu Bang fled in a hurry.
Thinking of this, Xiang Yu pulled out his sword and sang a sad song in a passionate voice, the lyrics of this song are called "Song of the Fall":
Now is not the time for Peabody to die. What can we do for Peabody? What can we do for Yuxi?
Yu Ji followed, singing and dancing. Seeing this scene, Xiang Yu, who had been on horseback all his life, could no longer hold back his tears, and his companions on the left and right also hid their faces and wept.
But tears don't change anything.
Xiang Yu wiped away his tears, said goodbye to Yu Ji, got on his horse and set off with eight hundred fine horses.
When Xiang Yu arrived at the Wujiang River, he thought that his 8,000 soldiers had been lost and would never see Jiangdong's father again, so he refused to cross the river, fought desperately with his followers, and finally killed himself.
After Xiang Yu's death, everyone snatched Xiang Yu's body, and finally the five people each took a part of the body to Liu Bang to receive the reward.
Xiang Yu is a rare god of war in Chinese history, but the tears of the god of war do not help, they only increase sadness. Only strength, not tears, can change history.
2, Chongzhen killed women.
In 1664, Li Zicheng laid siege to Beijing, and on March 18, the city fell. Emperor Chongzhen looked at the sky lantern outside the city gate, worried, and sat alone in the hall to drink.
Chongzhen drank wine, stood in front of Queen Zhou, took her hand, and said with tears in his eyes"You are the mother of the nation, and you deserve to be martyred. "
At that time, Queen Zhou was also sad and angry, and shed tears, she said:"The concubine has been by your side for eighteen years, but you have never listened to me, so I am here today. "After saying these words, she hanged herself.
Chongzhen named her 15-year-old daughter Princess Changping. Actually, Princess Changping also got married this time, but because the situation was too chaotic at the time, she didn't get married.
After the princess came, she pulled Chongzhen's clothes with her hands. Chongzhen couldn't help crying that day and said:"Why were you born in my family? "
He covered his face with one hand and stabbed Princess Changping with his sword with the other. Princess Changping's left arm was cut off and she passed out. Chongzhen killed his youngest daughter, Princess Zhaoren, who was only six years old, with a sword.
It's hard to imagine how a father can reach out to his daughter.
Empress Zhou's words are very reasonable, seventeen years of inaction is today. They can only blame themselves for all this, and they can't blame others.
Chongzhen's tears were not enough.
3.Trade.
Zhuge Liang's first Northern Expedition adopted Han Xin's tactics: frontal attack and rear containment. Due to the sudden attack of the Shu army and Zhuge Liang's strategy, the Shu army achieved good results and had the potential to go straight to Chang'an.
However, Ma Tan raised troops against Zhuge Liang's deployment, leading to a major defeat for the Shu army, which was in danger of being cut off by the Wei army's last line of defense. Zhuge Liang had to retreat.
Because of Ma Tan's mistake, Zhuge Liang did not hesitate to behead him by military law.
But Zhuge Liang is still crying over Ma Tan's killing.
Ma Tan and Zhuge Liang have a very personal relationship;
For a withered nation capable of killing will destroy itself;
Regrettably, the ancestor Liu Bei also lost his weight in loyalty because of this.
That's why Zhuge Liang couldn't hold back his tears.
is as strong as Zhuge Liang, and he has also shed tears in front of history. History does not believe in tears, but history is honest.
Illustrate. When scar literature was very popular, someone once took him to see Deng Gong, and after Deng Gong read it, he said eight words: one cry without tears, one talent. The space and vision of the great man are, of course, incomparable to us.
But the important thing is that we must endure hardships today so that we can walk well today and not shed tears in the future.
As the saying goes, if you don't sweat today, you will sweat tomorrow.
