Appreciation of Pre-Qin Prose, Warring States Policy and Su Li's "Don't Attack Liang from scratch (Western Zhou Policy)"

Su Li said to Zhou Jun: ①: "Destroying Korea and Wei, killing rhinoceros, ② attacking Zhao, ③ taking forests, leaving rocks, and qi are all in vain. It is attacking and fighting (5), and it has its own destiny. If we attack the beam today, it will break, and it will be dangerous if it breaks. If you don't stop. " Bai Qi said, "Chu has Yang and is good at shooting. The man who walks towards the willow leaves shoots at every step and hits every shot. Both sides say' good'. One person said,' If you are a good marksman, you can teach.' Yang said to him,' Everyone is fine, but the son can teach shooting; Why don't you film it for me? Guest; I can't teach my son to bend left and right. If people shoot willow leaves, they will hit every shot, without a good rest, inattention, fatigue, bow and arrow hooks, and all previous efforts will be wasted! "Rufu broke Korea and Wei and killed rhinoceros; And those who attack Zhao in the north, take the forest, leave the stone and be neat, are also public. There is a lot of public work! Today, I took the late as a fortress. Two weeks later (1 1), I practiced Korea (12), but I couldn't attack the beam, and all my previous efforts were wasted. If you don't call yourself sick, you can't get out. "

Note (1) Su Li: the younger brother of Su Qin, a strategist in the Warring States Period. 2 rhinoceros: Jiang Wei. (3) Lin: the place name, in today's Lishi West, Shanxi. Lishi: Place name, in present-day Shanxi Province. Qi: Place names now belong to Shanxi. These three places belonged to Zhao during the Warring States Period. (4) Tian Lei: General of the State of Qin, awarded Wu Anjun with meritorious service. ⑤ Yes: true. Attack: refined and skillful. ⑥ beam, namely Dewey beam. ⑦ Yang: Chu people are famous for their good shooting. Take surname: take Ji surname. 8 branches bend left and right: ancient good shooting method. 9-degree dial: incorrect. Hook: Bend. ⑩ Seizure: Guan Seizure, Qin is a country with four blockades, and when it leaves, it leaves Qin. (1 1) Two weeks: Western Zhou and Eastern Zhou. (12) Exercise: Dear, here. That means yes.

He said to the monarch of the Western Zhou Dynasty, "Fighting the Southern Wei Dynasty, killing the rhinoceros, attacking Zhao, occupying the forest, leaving the stone, and being neat, were all done in vain. Tian Lei is really good at fighting. He has fate to help him. Now lead troops to attack the girder, and the girder will be taken; As soon as the girder was captured, the Western Zhou Dynasty was unsafe. You might as well let me persuade Bai Qi not to do it. " So Su Li was ordered to see Bai Qi and said to him, "There was a man named Yang in Chu who was good at archery. He was a hundred paces away from the willow tree. He hit the willow tree with an arrow, and every shot was hit. Everyone next to them is called Yang Hao. At that time, a man passed by and said,' Good shot, I can teach you archery.' Yang said to him,' Others applauded, but you said you could teach you archery; Why don't you shoot some arrows and let me see! The man said,' I won't teach you the skill of archery. You hit the willow tree with every shot, but you refused to rest. After a while, you are exhausted, your bow is crooked and your arrow is bent. If you miss it, all your efforts will be in vain! "Now you have defeated South Korea and Wei, and killed Xi Wu. It was you who attacked Zhao and occupied Lin, Lishi and Qi in the north. You have made great achievements! Now you are leading Qin Jun to leave the territory of Qin State, cross the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and the Western Zhou Dynasty, and pass through South Korea to attack the girder. If you can't win this attack, you will lose all your efforts. You might as well call in sick! "

Jin Shengtan, a Qing Dynasty man, commented on "All Talented People Must Read": "It is wonderful to copy the military exploits twice before and after, but one stroke in the painting is good and one stroke is missed, but the meaning is exhausted."

During the Warring States period, before the war broke out, it was often a good opportunity for counselors and strategists to display their skills and eloquence. This paper describes a language offensive launched by Su Li on the eve of the Qin-Wei War, which shows his eloquence and his ability to get rid of soldiers and avoid disasters.

The article only narrates Su Li's two words of pleading with Zhou Jun and exhorting Leitian, and both of them describe Leitian's numerous exploits in detail. However, although the words are repeated, their intentions are different. The former is intended to highlight the destructive power and threat of Tian Lei's troops, so as to arouse the vigilance of Zhou Jun; The latter is intended to emphasize Tian Lei's ever-victorious achievements, so as to arouse Tian Lei's patriotism. Being good at using the same materials to serve different themes is a major feature of this paper. Secondly, the story of Yang is inserted into the article, which vividly illustrates the truth that once you can't attack, you can't win every battle, so as to induce Bai Qi to "pretend to be sick" according to the commentator's "teaching". The metaphor is apt and ingenious, which enhances the appeal and persuasiveness of the speech.
