Feng Tang is easy to get old, but Li Guang is hard to seal.

Feng Tang is easy to get old, but Li Guang is difficult to seal: it is difficult to achieve greatness when you are old, lamenting your high reputation and good fate. Don Wang Bo's Preface to Autumn Vine Farewell: "Hehe! Bad luck, ill-fated; Feng Tang is easy to get old, but Li Guang is hard to seal. " Wang Bo, a "four outstanding men in the early Tang Dynasty", was exiled for "the chicken of the king of England" offending Tang Gaozong. He went to Jiao Jiao to visit his father and passed through Hongzhou, which coincided with the Double Ninth Festival. Taizhouyan of Hongzhou gave a banquet to entertain the guests and wrote poems. Wang Bo improvised preface to Wang Teng-ting at the table, feeling that he was: "Bad luck, bad fate, Feng Tang is easy to get old, but Li Guangnan is difficult. The story of an old man in Feng Tang: During the reign of Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty, Feng Tang was a minister. He is famous for his filial piety and is worshipped as the central lang department. Because of his integrity and selflessness, courage to make suggestions and selflessness, he was always pushed out everywhere until his hair turned gray and he was old, and he was not promoted. He's just an official. Later, the northern Xiongnu invaded the Han Dynasty again, and Emperor Wendi ordered the recruitment of Xiongnu generals in various places. On this day, Wendi met Feng Tang when passing by Shu Lang Department, so they talked about the general. Unexpectedly, Wendi appreciated Feng Tang's talent very much. Feng Tang took this opportunity to reprimand Shang Wei, the deposed satrap in Yunzhong, and begged Emperor Wen of Han to restore Wei Shangguan's post and let Shang Wei lead his troops to attack the Huns. Indeed as expected, it repelled the Huns, and Feng Tang was promoted to a captain of the car because of the sage. After Emperor Jingdi ascended the throne, Feng Tang was quickly dismissed from office because of his honest and clean character. After the death of Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu ascended the throne, and the Huns invaded the frontier again. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also recruited sages and chose Feng Tang, but Feng Tang was over ninety years old, and he could no longer work. Later, people used Feng Tang's aging to describe it as hard to get old. Li Guang's hard-to-seal allusion: Li Guang, General Fei, has a high historical evaluation. Wang Changling, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, once praised Li Guang, "Only make Longcheng fly, and don't teach Huma to cross the shady mountain. "However, even if Li Guang distinguished himself in military exploits, he didn't seal the marquis until his death. Wang Bo, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, lamented Li Guang's "bad luck" in "Preface to Wang Tengting"; Feng Tang is easy to get old, but Li Guang is hard to seal. "But Li Guang is really unlucky? Historical evaluation of a person is often emotional (modern evaluation of a person is often political), and sympathy for Li Guang is more than rational analysis. Therefore, it is difficult for Li Guang to be sealed. Besides bad luck, there are other reasons. Li Guang, a tall man with slender arms, is good at riding and shooting. When fighting, he went with the flow and acted quickly. He was called "Flying General" by Huns. When he was a satrap in Shanggu, he fought with Xiongnu every day. He risked his life and fought bravely. In the name of happeneth. Sun Kun, a classical country, cried and said to the emperor, "Li Guang is brilliant, and he is conceited in his ability to make a big talk to the West, fearing that he will die with the enemy. Only when the emperor loved him was he afraid of death, so he transferred Li Guang to Shang Jun as a satrap. Lao Tzu said, "A sharp person cannot keep it for a long time. "It means that the weapon is too sharp to break easily. Li Guang himself thought he was invincible and despised the Huns from the bottom of his heart. So every time I try my best, the Huns are nothing. Thanks to the Huns' ignorance of the art of war of the Han family, if the Huns knew a little about the art of war, Li Guang would probably be captured or killed by the Huns. Although Li Guang always took the lead and fought bravely, Li Guang didn't understand the strategic deployment and defeated the enemy tactically except happeneth. He only takes people for bravery, like a brave man, and his conceit is very slight. Li Guang greeted the Huns at Yanmen. There were many Huns, and Li Guang was arrested. This shows that Li Guang, a brave man, is only one-on-one, equal, fighting more and fighting less. As long as there are more enemy soldiers, Li Guang will be helpless, either defeated or captured. Li Guang designed to escape, and Li Guang was defeated. When he was beheaded, he was redeemed for Shu Ren. Li Guang returned to Baling Pavilion too late, and the door was closed. Commander Baling Pavilion took a sip of hard liquor and reprimanded Guang, saying, "Today's generals are not allowed to walk at night, not to mention that you are still a former general!" Li Guang was angry and helpless. Although the commander of Baling Pavilion drank too much, he was impartial. When Li Guang was once again used by the emperor as the right magistrate of Beiping, Li Guang thought, "Last time he was turned away from the city by the commander of Balingge, he even looked down on my flying general. I must kill him this time. " So Li Guang called Wei of Baling Pavilion to his own army, and then cut it. This shows that Li Guang is too narrow-minded to tolerate people who have opinions about himself. As the saying goes, "the prime minister can punt in his stomach, and the general can race horses on his forehead." "Li Guang can hold a small commander of Baling Pavilion in his heart, which shows that Li Guang is narrow-minded and not enough to achieve great things. If Li Guang doesn't kill Baling Pavilion Commandant, Baling Pavilion Commandant will feel guilty, grateful that Li Guang didn't kill him, and will try his best to repay Li Guang when killing the enemy, but Li Guang killed him in a moment of anger. How can a man without magnanimity lead a tribe? Han Anguo, a contemporary ancient scholar, was humiliated by the jailer Tian Jia in prison. Han Anguo said, "aren't you afraid of my resurgence? Tian Jia is very humorous: "If your old love rekindles, I should pee to put it out." "After being worshipped as beam civil history. After Tian Guzhi knew it, he ran away. Han Anguo said humorously, "If you don't escape, you won't kill anyone. If you run away, you will destroy its nine families. Family, afraid to go, had to plead guilty to Han Anguo. "。 Han Anguo smiled and said, "Show me the urine. "Han Anguo not only let the family go, but also treated him well. This is Han Anguo's tolerance for adults to ignore villains. But Li Guang can't. Unable to seal the marquis, Li Guang complained to the astrologer Wang Shuo: "I have been among them since the Han Dynasty attacked the Xiongnu in the north. However, all the other generals were appointed, but I didn't. Am I doomed not to seal the marquis? " Wang Shuo said, "Do you think about it? Have you done anything wrong? Li Guang said: "What I regret most is that I killed 800 people who surrendered." Wang Shuo said: "The disaster is greater than the killing, and the fall is also related to the general. We can't seal him up. "It was immoral to kill prisoners in ancient times, and killed eight hundred people, so Li Guang will be punished. Sure enough, after Li Ling surrendered to the Huns, the Li Guang family declined. When Li Guang participated in the decisive battle of General Wei Qing Mobei, Wei Qing asked Li Guang to attack from the side, but the stubborn disease of Li Guang's brave thought appeared again. As a pioneer, he is well documented, but Wei Qing did not agree to Li Guang's request, and Li Guang turned back angrily. First, Wei Qing knows Li Guang, while Li Guang is self-righteous, does not listen to the command, has no sense of the overall situation, and will not be competent for large-scale operations in small-scale operations with the enemy; Second, Wei Qing saw that Li Guang was too old and lacked physical strength and energy. And Li Guang is eager to seal Hou, want to win the final prize. Therefore, when he is eager for victory, mistakes will inevitably occur. So Wei Qing wisely rejected Li Guang's well-documented request. But even if Li Guang attacked from the side, Li Guang did not successfully complete the task. He led the team lost, did not meet Wei Qing's main force in time, and let Khan escape. Wei Qing scolded Li Guang a few words. Li Guang suddenly felt sad: "Guangjie fought against Xiongnu for more than 70 times, but he was lucky enough to take Khan from the general. The general fought widely and returned to the far side, but he lost his way. Isn't it a day? "Besides, I am in my sixties, and I can't go back to being an official with a knife, gun and pen." Then he stabbed himself and died tragically, and the people cried. In the end, Li Guang lost his last chance to seal Hou. When it comes to the war with the Huns, Li Guang is not outstanding, but in the "Seven Kingdoms Rebellion", Li Guang followed Zhou Yafu to pacify the Wu Chu Coalition forces and made great contributions. Liu Wu, the king of Liang, took a fancy to Li Guangzhi and privately named Li Guang as the general seal. Li Guang did not know about politics and accepted it. Liu Wu wanted to be emperor at that time, and hoped that Li Guang would rise up and forcibly enter the palace, which was fully understood by Emperor Liu Qi of Han Jing. Why did Li Guang accept Pu Yin at that time? Just because Li Guang is short-sighted and can't tell the stakes. He thought he had made a meritorious military service, and Liang Wang awarded him the General Medal. This is my reward. I want to take it back to Beijing to show off. As a result, Li Guang angered the emperor without any reward. Laozi said, "Those who look at themselves are disorganized, those who look at themselves are unknown, those who cut themselves are useless, and those who admire themselves are not long." But Li Guang didn't understand why. He is so naive. There is no denying that Li Guang is very loyal and patriotic, but after all, Li Guang has a personality defect and insufficient ability (strategic ability and overall awareness). Although he showed bravery and general tolerance in small-scale battles, these can only make Li Guang famous. In big battles, Li Guang always loses many battles and has no great record, so Li Guang can't be blocked until he dies. Life!
