Appreciation of General Li's Biography.

This article recounts the life and deeds of Li Guang, a general of the Han Dynasty, describes Li Guang's outstanding talents and noble conduct, and also writes about Li Guang's unfortunate life experience. The article selects four typical examples of the Shangjun Encounter, the Yanmen Sortie, the Youbeiping Battle, and the Invasion of Hun Chun Burning Nu with the Great General Wei Qing, and writes in chronological order to highlight Li Guang's character, talent, encounter, and the social reality of early burning at that time.

Li Guangxiao was brave and good at fighting, witty and brave, courageous, calm and calm, and not afraid of danger, which made the Huns fearful; He loves money lightly, takes the lead, is loyal and honest, and has won the respect of the majority of soldiers; Although he has made many miraculous achievements, he is in a rough situation and has been wronged, but he is still loyal to his duties and has traveled around the field.

Through these descriptions, the article shows Li Guang's outstanding achievements, but he was suppressed for a long time and was finally forced to commit suicide, expressing the author's admiration for Li Guang's talent and character, and sympathy for Li Guang's unfortunate experience, and also exposing the unfairness of rewards and punishments in the imperial court, meanness and unkindness, and darkness and unreasonableness.

Defeated the Huns.

The reason why Li Guang was called General Fei: the Xiongnu invaded Liaoxi, killed Taishou, and defeated General Han. General Han transferred to Youbeiping and died.

So the emperor appointed Li Zao quietly and widely as the right Beiping Taishou. Li Guang asked Captain Baling to go with him, and when Captain Baling arrived, Li Guang killed him, and then wrote a letter to apologize for his crimes. Li Guang was in Beiping County, and the Huns called him "General Fei", hiding from Li Guang and not daring to invade for several years.

Tang Dezong enshrined Li Guang and other 64 famous generals with outstanding martial arts in history in the Wucheng Wang Temple, known as the 64 generals of the Wucheng Wang Temple. Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty posthumously honored Li Guangwei Huairoubo, and was one of the seventy-two generals of the Song Wu Temple.

Li Guang commented. Li Guangwei was an honest general, and often distributed his rewards to his subordinates, eating and drinking with the soldiers. He has been an official for more than 40 years, and his family does not have much extra property, and he never talks about the purchase of family property, and he is deeply loved by officers and soldiers.

Li Huaiyan Zaoguang is tall, with arms as long as an ape, and has a talent for good archery, and his children and grandchildren learn archery from others, but they are not as good as Li Guang. Li Guang was not good at words, and when he lived with others, he also gambled on lead bird wine with archery for pleasure, and used archery as a pastime all his life.

Li Guang loves soldiers like a son, and he can take the lead in everything. When the march encounters a lack of water and fasting, when he sees water, he sees food, and the soldier does not drink all the water, and he does not go near the water's edge;The soldier does not eat it all, he does not taste the food. The soldier is not harsh on him, which makes the soldier willing to die for him.

When Li Guang shot and killed the enemy, he demanded that his arrows were not missed, so he did not shoot within dozens of steps, and often the arrow was off the string, and the enemy died in response. As a result, he was chased by the enemy many times, and was injured several times when shooting fierce beasts because of the distance.

Li Guang's army lacked Xiongnu guides who naturalized the Han Dynasty and border Han guides who knew the Xiongnu language in the border area, which led to the inability of the army to cooperate and coordinate with the generals at the predetermined time and place, and finally committed suicide in anger because he failed to participate in the war.

Problem description: Fast. Emergency. Brother Xie Xu:

Once, Li Guang was accidentally captured by the Huns. The Hail Huns brought a net to trap him, and then dragged him with several horses. Li Guang, who was extremely witty, saw the opportunity, and snatched a scimitar from the accompanying Huns and cut the net.

Before the other Huns could react, Li Guang had already killed several people with the scimitar, jumped on a fast horse, and fled from the Huns' position. You must know that this series of events only happened in just a dozen seconds. The Huns were ignorant and thought that Li Guang was a god and knew how to fly to the heavens and the earth, so they called Li Guang "General Fei" from then on.

What's even more amazing is that because of Li Guang's name Weizhen Frontier, it is said that the babies of the Huns cry at night, and as soon as the name Li Guang is said in the ear, the baby immediately does not dare to cry.

Li Guang's death In 119 BC (the fourth year of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty), Li Guang was appointed as a former general and accompanied the general Wei Qing to conquer the Xiongnu. After the army left the fortress, Wei Qing ordered Li Guangsuo's troops to merge with General You's troops and go from the east. The east road is detoured and the road is far away, and it will definitely not be able to meet the Chinese army on time, Li Guang knew this very well, so he asked Wei Qing:

I am a former general, so I should naturally be a pioneer, but you let me take the east road. I finally had the opportunity to face Shan Yu (the supreme leader of the Huns), and I was willing to rush to the front and die at the hands of Shan Yu first. Before setting out on the expedition, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty secretly warned Wei Qing, saying that Li Guang was unlucky and old, and he could not let him fight Shan Yu head-on, so as not to make a mistake.

At the same time, Wei Qing also has a selfish heart, his life-saving benefactor Gongsun Ao was deprived of the title of marquis by Emperor Wu not long ago, Wei Qing wanted him to fight with his central army and the Xiongnu, and give him a chance to make meritorious contributions. Therefore, Wei Qing refused to agree to Li Guang's request, and he even asked his subordinates to send the order directly to Li Guang's barracks in front of Li Guang. Receiving such a light insult, Li Guang was also angry, and he didn't even say a word of farewell to Wei Qing, and got up and returned to his barracks with an angry face.

As Li Guang expected, the east road was far away, and there was no guide, Li Guang's troops lost their way and did not catch up with the battle against the Xiongnu. Although Wei Qing engaged the main force of the Huns, he did not catch Shan Yu, and met Li Guang when he returned to the division. Wei Qing wanted to report to Emperor Wu the reason for the failure of this operation, and his Changshi (the official in charge of the paperwork around the general) asked Li Guang why he was late?

I think I have fought more than 70 battles with the Huns in my life, and finally had the opportunity to fight Shan Yu face to face, but I was squeezed out by Wei Qing, and I got lost without fighting, isn't this providence? I am over 60 years old, how to say that I am also a veteran who has been famous for a long time, and now I am humiliated by the little envoy of the knife and pen, how can I bear it! Thinking of this, Li Guang was so sad and indignant that he drew his knife and killed himself.
