Why did later poets miss Li Guang in their poems and not praise Wei Huo much?

In ancient poetry, we will find such an interesting phenomenon, although Huo Quzhi is a military general, but in ancient poetry, it seems that literati and writers prefer to write more about Li Guang, and few people write about Huo Quai, in fact, this is because Li Guang's experience can resonate more with poets, literati write poems, they need resonance to arouse their own talents, and if they resonate, they will stimulate the poet's creative inspiration, so poets have always liked to write about Li Guang when writing poems, and few people write about characters like Huo Quai.

1. The poverty of the career resonates with the poet. Ancient poems were mostly lyrical and created with the theme, and poets were also accustomed to choosing characters with the same emotions as themselves when choosing historical figures, which can exist beyond time and space. Li Guang, a famous general in the early years of the Han Dynasty, fought against the Xiongnu all his life, but he was born at the wrong time.

This kind of scene is very consistent with the feelings of a scholar who has no way to serve the country in his life, so Li Guang is more likely to resonate with literati, so poets write more about Li Guang.

Second, this is the praise of the literati to the heroes. In fact, not only poets, but even in historical records, there are great sighs for tragic characters. Li Guang and Xiang Yu are such characters.

Li Guang has a strong ability to lead troops, and poets like to give high praise to heroes like Li Guang, but Wei Qing and Huo Qubing are generally lists of major historical events, and there are few descriptions of specific events. Moreover, Huo Quzhi and Wei Qing are both relatives, so even Sima Qian, who wrote historical records, likes to describe characters like Li Guang, not to mention other literati and writers?

3. Literati like to describe the characteristics of legendary characters. Li Guang is known for his legendary experience as an archer, which is easy to integrate into poetry, and many poets like to reproduce this special situation, so people with special talents like Li Guang are more likely to be selected by poets and appear in more and more poems.

Because the sense of emotional substitution is very strong, because although Li Guang has established an inch of merit, he is not appreciated by the emperor, can arouse the emotional resonance of poets.

This is because Li Guang is more representative, which makes people sound more uneasy.

Because although Li Guang established military merits, he was not appreciated by the emperor, and his depressed emotions could resonate with poets.

Because Li Guang is more generous and benevolent to the soldiers, he cares about his soldiers very much, so he will be supported by the soldiers, in the context of the war, although Li Guang does not have such a brilliant record as Wei Qing and Huo Quai, but he has been fighting in the front line, directly confronting the Huns, is a very courageous person, plus he can have a good popularity, many soldiers and the masses will support Li Guang, thinking that such a person is a person who contributes to the public, is the most trustworthy general of the people.

Li Guang is known as the "Flying General".

In the border area, Li Guang served as the Taishou of Shanggu, he was at the forefront of the fight against the enemy, often fought with the Huns, Gongsun Kun Xie once praised Li Guang, saying that Li Guang such a person in the world can not find a second, Li Guang and the Huns close to each other, very dangerous, every day will hold the risk of losing such a general, but although this is the case, Li Guang's prestige is spread very wide, the Huns called Li Guang "flying general", although Li Guang often participates in the war, but there is no Fenghe merits, it is inevitable that some people feel sorry for him. <>

Li Guang's life is not good.

Since ancient times, there have been many literati and writers who have compared their experiences with General Li Guang, feeling that they have never met with Li Guang and have never achieved fame, whether it is the poems describing Li Guang, or those literati who have never met talents, the most prominent and concentrated description is that they have not been crowned marquis, although they have the ability to do so, but their fate is not good, they have never fully displayed their talents, and they have not met their own Bole. <>

Li Guang's personality has won the respect of everyone.

In many biographies, Li Guang will be described as upright, not to be ordered to act, his body is not right, although he does not obey the order, they all say that General Li is such a person, although General Li does not have outstanding appearance, not good at words, but there is a very important point, when Li Guang died, the world was sad for his deeds, which is not easy, he won the respect of the world. <>

During the war, Li Guang could eat and live with the soldiers, but later he was killed, so it can be said that good people do not have good lives.

Because Li Guang was a good general who was particularly capable of fighting well, and he distributed his own rewards to his soldiers, he was honest and honest with his practical actions, and he was able to share weal and woe with the soldiers, and this spirit was very valuable.

Because his strength is very strong, and his three views are very positive, he will always consider the people, he will respect everyone, there are many people who trust him, and he is very good at giving advice, so he will be supported by others.

I think that those people who support Li Guang are all people who have a bad career and have experienced twists and turns in their lives, they pin their feelings on Li Guang, and they speak sour in the face of Wei Huo, who is going well.

Huo Quzhi is more famous, and he has also made a lot of contributions to society, and his great achievements have also been respected and recognized by many people.

Huo Quzhi's reputation will be greater, and Huo Quzhi's medical skills are also very superb, and many people know Huo Quzhi.

Huo Qu's disease. The fame is a little greater. And in ancient times, he was also a well-known figure, and many people liked this character very much, and his fame was also very high.

Throughout the ages, how many poets have ascended to high positions, so for a general who is not taken seriously, it is obvious that Li Guang is more kind. Needless to say, Huo Quzhi and Wei Qing were reused by virtue of Wei's ascension to the queen's throne, and it was inevitable that they would be a little suspicious of their relatives. Besides, the battle of Wei Qinghuo's illness in the history books often uses a heaven-sent tone, which seems to be very high, and the poets are of course not happy.

You are a general and you are good at fighting, why do you want history to be written in the same way as your gods, they are all mortals, and you are different, and literati are a little arrogant, so they don't like this kind of ungrounded very much.

To sum up, what poets write reflects a certain preference of the times, and they prefer people who are down-to-earth and climb up with their skills.

Because Li Guang is deeply loved by the people, later poets like to express their nostalgia for Li Guang in their poems, but Wei Huo's behavior and behavior are not respected by the people.

Although Wei Huo made outstanding achievements, he was mainly reused by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to rise to prominence. Later generations of poets were not reused, and their hearts were depressed and they wrote poems, and Li Guang's situation was just in line with what they wanted to express.

Because Wei Qing and Huo Qubing are both relatives of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, people think that they can occupy high positions because of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, so they are not respected.

First of all, Li Guang's fame is inseparable from Sima Qian's "Historical Records", Sima Qian used a lot of techniques in cotton shoes Li Guang, not only using historical brushwork to portray Li Guang's life, but also many deeds and anecdotes to highlight Li Guang's character and talent, which resonated with many people at the time, lamenting that Huai Cai did not meet and bad luck. They all use Li Guang to express their emotions and encounters, which can be regarded as an expression of sustenance.

On the other hand, Li Guang is more simple and down-to-earth. Li Guang has a foundation of the masses and the common people, and he is loved and admired by the poor people. In addition, the three of them are all outstanding achievements, but Li Guang developed relatively early, and the period is the same, but Li Guang was already very old at that time, and Wei Qing and Huo Quzhi were still active.

The main reason is that Li Guang's experience touched many people at that time, and his unyielding spirit is also worthy of everyone's admiration, in the context of the time, there are many talented people like Li Guang, but most of them are not in the Bole phase, but they are not reused, Li Guang is like everyone's representative in that period. In addition, Wei Qing and Huo Qubing both belong to the foreign relatives class, and Li Guang belongs to the civilian class, no matter which dynasty or generation, the people still have more relatives than the emperor, so Li Guang's deeds will spread faster and more than the two of them. In the eyes of everyone, Li Guang's achievements were made by himself, and the process was far more difficult than Wei Huo's, and the natural people admired and admired him more.

Another point is that Sima Qian also used Li Guang to write his life, Sima Qian once felt that he was born at the wrong time and was punished by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Li Guang made great contributions, and it stands to reason that he should be made a marquis by Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, but because Li Guang obeyed the dispatch of King Liang, he did not give any reward. Therefore, Sima Qian wrote more words of appreciation when writing Li Guang.

Later, some people used Li Guang's injustice to express and express their dissatisfaction and criticize their own talents. felt that he was as talented as Li Guang, but he was not reused, and expressed his injustice and dissatisfaction.

Later generations did leave a lot of poems about remembering Li Guang, and compared with Li Guang, the Han Dynasty generals Wei Qing and Huo Quai, who had more outstanding achievements, were rarely missed. This is mainly because Li Guang was not made a marquis by the imperial court in his life, which is an extremely regrettable thing, and another important reason is that Li Guang is regarded as the representative of the Han Dynasty to fight against the Xiongnu. <>

Li Guang can be regarded as a tragic hero, so much so that Wang Bo, a great genius in the Tang Dynasty, has a famous saying, "Feng Tang is easy to be old, Li Guang is difficult to seal", which tells the regret that Li Guang was not made a marquis by the imperial court in his life. Li Guang, as one of the main generals who resisted the Xiongnu in the early stage of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, spent most of his life fighting against the Xiongnu, but at that time the Han Dynasty had not yet fought a large-scale war against the Xiongnu. <>

Although small-scale battles were frequent, Li Guang's exploits were not enough to reach the realm of a feudal marquis. When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty took the initiative to attack the Xiongnu and started a large-scale battle, Li Guang had already begun to be powerless, and Wei Qing and Huo Qubing began to show their talents. Li Guang's regret made future generations feel sorry for him, and also reminded many talented people in later generations of their own circumstances, which led to many poems about themselves through Li Guang.

Among the most famous poems that miss Li Guang, the most famous is the sentence "But make the dragon city fly, and do not teach Hu Ma to do Yin Mountain". Among them, the descendants of General Fei are mostly considered to be Li Guang, because Li Guang was known as General Fei at that time. However, after the research of many scholars, the "flying general" in the poems of later generations does not only refer to Li Guang.

There were many famous generals in the Han Dynasty who were called "flying generals", such as Wei Qing. Therefore, this "flying general" not only refers to Li Guang, but also represents many warriors who fought against the Huns at that time, including Wei Qing, Huo Quai, and thousands of soldiers.

Because Li Guang has material and is easy to explore, he can use Li Guang's experience to complain. The majority of literati are more envious, jealous and hateful of Wei Qinghuo's illness! I feel that I have no talent like Li Guang, and I don't have such a big shit luck as Wei Huo!

But like Li Guang, they never reflect on their own problems!

Because success varies, and the wailing of a defeated dog is always the same (superiors look down on me, don't give me opportunities, don't give me room to perform, etc., but never find reasons in themselves).

Because since Si Shiqian's unsparing praise of Li Guang, Li Guang has gradually become symbolized as a generation of famous generals and tragic heroes, while Wei Qing and Huo Qubing have great credit, but this symbolization is not as strong as Li Guangqiang. Therefore, later poets mostly miss Li Guang in their poems.

Although Li Guang's military achievements are not as good as theirs, Li Guangxiao is brave and good at fighting, very brave, never afraid of failure, his life and the Xiongnu fought dozens of times, often with less to win more, so that the Huns are terrified.

That's because the Wei Qing family is an honor obtained by nepotism, and they are all imperial relatives of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Li Guang was born at the wrong time, and his achievements and character are more respected by future generations.
