Speech on Traditional Virtues 1

In 208 BC, after suppressing the uprising of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, Qin general Zhang Han broke through Handan, and the anti-Qin forces, Zhao Wang Xie and Zhang Er, were forced to retreat in Julu (southwest of present-day Pingxiang, Hebei Province), where they were besieged by the Qin general Wang Li, who led a force of 200,000 men. Zhang Han led an army of 200,000 men to stay at the Spine Plain, a few miles south of Julu, and built a passageway with earth walls on both sides leading to Wang Li's camp for food and provisions. Zhao general Chen Yu led an army of tens of thousands of soldiers to the north of Julu, and dared not go to his rescue because of the small number of soldiers.

King Huai of Chu sent Song Yi as the first general and Xiang Yu as the second general, leading 200,000 people to rescue Zhao. After Song Yi led his troops to Anyang (southeast of present-day Caoxian County, Shandong Province), they stayed put for 46 days in a row. Xiang Yu was very unhappy about this and told Song Yi, "The Qin army has surrounded Julu, the situation is so urgent, let's cross the river quickly and attack with the Zhao army from the inside and the outside, we will be able to defeat the Qin army."

Song Yi said, "We'd better wait until after the Qin and Zhao armies have fought." He also said to Xiang Yu: "I am no match for you when it comes to fighting the enemy in battle, but you are no match for me when it comes to sitting in a tent and coming up with a plan."

Xiang Yu said, "Now there is no food in the barracks, but the general pressed the troops, such a disregard for the country, do not sympathize with the soldiers, where is the appearance of a great general."

The next day, Xiang Yu took advantage of the court meeting to draw his sword and kill Song Yi. He lifted Song Yi's head and said to his generals, "Song Yi betrayed the Great King (referring to King Huai of Chu), and I have executed him by the order of the Great King."

So the generals then embraced Xiang Yu as the upper general. Xiang Yu's killing of Song Yi was so powerful that it shook Chu and became famous among the vassals.

He then crossed the Yellow River with all his troops and went to rescue Zhao to relieve the siege of Julu. After all the Chu troops crossed the Zhanghe River, Xiang Yu let the soldiers have a full meal, and each of them brought three days of dry food, and then passed down the order: "Sink the boat, break the cauldron and cauldron", which means that the boat (anciently known as the boat) that crosses the river is chiseled through and sunk into the river, and the pot (anciently known as the cauldron) that is used for cooking is smashed to smithereens, and the houses in the vicinity are put on fire to burn them all down. This is called breaking the kettle and sinking the boat. Xiang Yu used this method to show his determination to win.

In this way, there is no way back to the Chu army warriors to one for ten, the killing sound shocked the sky and the earth. After nine fierce battles, the Chu army finally broke the Qin army. The first time I saw this was when I was in the middle of the night, when I was in the middle of the night, when I was in the middle of the night, when I was in the middle of the night, when I was in the middle of the night. This battle not only relieved the siege of Julu, but also beat the Qin army to the point that it could not be revitalized, and after two years, the Qin dynasty fell.

The bravery of the Chu army greatly enhanced Xiang Yu's reputation. After the victory, when Xiang Yu met all the lords at the Yuanmen Gate, all the lords did not dare to look at Xiang Yu squarely.

Later, the phrase "all sunken ships, broken cauldrons and cauldrons" evolved into the idiom of "broken cauldrons and sunken boats", which is a metaphor for fighting to the death with great determination.

Speech 2

Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty attacked Goryeo for the first time and was defeated. More than one million soldiers, only 2,700 people escaped back. This defeat did not make this arrogant tyrant dead heart. Only a year later, he launched a second attack on Goryeo. He personally led the army to attack Liaodong, and sent his minister Yang Xuan Gan to supervise the transportation of grain and grass in the rear of Liyang.

Yang Xuan Gan's father, Yang Su, was originally a close friend of Emperor Yang, and helped Emperor Yang seize the throne. Later on, he was suspected by Emperor Yang and died of depression. Yang Xuan Gan has long been dissatisfied with Emperor Yang, and this time, seeing the situation is chaotic, he wants to take advantage of this time to overthrow Emperor Yang.

Yang Xuan Gan used the name of transporting grain and grass, conscripted the young and strong people, boatmen more than eight thousand people, and asked them to transport grain to the front line in Liaodong.

One day, Yang Xuan Gan gathered the people together and said: "The Emperor does not care about the people's lives and let thousands of people die in Liaodong, this situation can not be tolerated any longer. I am also forced to do this. Now I am determined to join the group and overthrow the tyrant. What do you all think?"

Once the guys heard that someone was leading the charge against the court, how could they not, and a cheer went up.

Yang Xuan Gan organized the 8,000 folk into teams, issued weapons, and prepared to attack the Sui army. He realizes that he lacks a strategist around him to help him out, and can't help but think of his good friend Li Mi, who is in Chang'an.

Li Mi's previous generations were nobles in the Northern Zhou and Sui dynasties. When Li Mi was a teenager, he was assigned as a guard in Emperor Yang's court. He was flexible by nature, and when he was on duty, he was looking left and right, which was discovered by Emperor Yang of Sui, who thought that the boy was not very honest and exempted him from his duties. Li Mi didn't feel sorry for him, but went home and studied furiously, deciding to be a learned . The first time he did this, he was a very good man.

One time, Li Mi rode an ox and went out to see a friend. On the way, he hung the Book of Han on the horn of the ox, and grasped the time to read. It so happened that the prime minister Yang Su in his carriage came up behind him, and saw a young man in front of him reading on the back of the ox, and secretly wondered.

Yang Su greeted in the car and said, "Which scholar, so diligent ah?"

Li Mi looked back and recognized the prime minister, panicked and jumped off the back of the cow, made a bow to Yang Su, reported his name.

Yang Su asked him, "What are you looking at?"

Li Mi replied, "I'm reading a biography of Xiang Yu."

Yang Su talked to Li Mi for a while, and felt that this young man is very ambitious. After returning home, Yang Su told his son, Yang Xuan Gan, "I think Li Mi's knowledge and talent are much better than your brothers. In the future, if you have any important matters, you can find him to discuss."

After that, Yang Xuan Gan made friends with Li Mi.

This time, when Yang Xuan Gan was looking for a strategist, he remembered his father's advice, so he sent someone to Chang'an to bring Li Mi to Liyang.

When Li Mi arrived in Liyang, Yang Xuan Gan asked him for advice: to overthrow Emperor Yang, how to fight this battle.

Li Mi said: "There are three ways to defeat the official army. First, the emperor is now in Liaodong, we lead the troops north to cut off the retreat of the dim emperor. He has Goryeo in front of him, and no retreat behind him. Within ten days, the army will not be able to take over the food, and we can win without fighting, which is the best strategy. The second is to take Chang'an to the west and raid their lair. If the government forces want to retreat, we will take the Guanzhong area as a base, with the risk of holding on, this is the middle strategy. The third is to attack Luoyang, the capital of the East. However, this is a lower strategy. Because the imperial court still retains a portion of the garrison in the eastern capital, it is not certain that it can be quickly attacked."

Yang Xuan Gan is eager to get things done, after listening to the three strategies, think the first two are too time-consuming, said: "I see you say the next strategy, but it is a good strategy. Now the families of the court officials are all in Dongdu. We take down the east capital, the families are captured. The army will be shaken, so we can win."

Yang Xuan Gan immediately from Liyang to attack Dongdu, along the way, there are many peasants enthusiastically participate in the insurrectionary army, the team expanded to 100,000 people, and won a few battles one after another. Emperor Yang is leading the army attacking Liaoyang, get the emergency paper, retreated overnight, and sent general Yu Wen Shu and other leaders of the army to attack Yang Xuan Gan by road. Yang Xuan Gan could not resist and tried to retreat to Chang'an in the west. Yuwen Shu followed and chased Yang Xuan Gan with his troops, and finally, surrounded Yang Xuan Gan's men and horses. Yang Xuan Gan had no way out and was finally killed.

Li Mi escaped from the chaos and tried to sneak back to Chang'an. But the Sui army searched very tightly, and Li Mi was still caught.

The Sui general sent soldiers to escort Li Mi to Emperor Yang's camp. On the way, Li Mi discussed with a dozen prisoners, and gave them all the money they had with them to the escorting Sui soldiers for their food and drink. The Sui soldiers took their bribe, drank and enjoyed themselves, and their defense was slackened. The first time I saw this was when I was a young man, and the second time I saw this was when I was a young man, and the third time I saw this was when I was a young man.

After Li Mi was out of danger, he wanted to find another opportunity to rebel against the Sui Dynasty. He tried to find a rebel leader as a backer, but some rebel leaders saw him as a weak scholar and didn't pay much attention to him. Li Mi had no choice but to change his name and hide, and he was nearly arrested by the government several times. Finally, he heard that there was an insurgent army in Wagang Village in Dongxian County (east of present-day Shixian County, Henan Province), which was very strong. The leader was called Zhai (翟)让, who was a generous person and liked to make friends with heroes, so he decided to go to the east county to join the Wagang army.
