What is the zodiac sign of a general who makes meritorious deeds on the battlefield?

The general's meritorious service on the battlefield is the zodiac "horse".

Wang Changling wrote in his poem, "Yellow sand wears golden armor in hundreds of battles, but it won't be returned if it doesn't break the Loulan", which is a tribute to the military forces who have made meritorious deeds in killing the enemy on the battlefield.

The origin of the zodiac;

The zodiac is a time system created by the working people in ancient China, which corresponds to the twelve earthly branches. Ganzhi Chronology is the official timing system in ancient China, which is used to measure the year, month, day and time, and has been passed down to this day.

Although it is standardized and universal, it is still complicated and difficult for ordinary people to remember, so the ancient working people used their favorite methods to make time more vivid and easier to remember.

This method is to use twelve kinds of animals to correspond to the twelve branches of the earth, so as to mark and remember the time with the names of animals, and gradually form the zodiac, also known as the zodiac. The arrangement period of the zodiac and the twelve earthly branches is twelve, and the essence of the zodiac is the twelve earthly branches, which are twelve symbols with time significance.

Some people say that there is a saying in The Book of Songs, Xiaoya's auspicious day, that is, "an auspicious day is at noon, that is, the horse is poor", so they think this is a record of the zodiac, because the earthly branch "noon" corresponds to the horse of the zodiac.

In fact, this is a misunderstanding and a coincidence. The "horse" here is not an abstract horse in the zodiac, but a concrete horse sent to hunt. The auspicious day to send horses for hunting happens to be Gengwu Day, which has nothing to do with the zodiac and the zodiac. You can't take it for granted without thinking.
