Idioms and allusions of seven captures and seven verticals
In 225 AD, Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of Shu Han, led the army south to consolidate the rear. Just as we were preparing to withdraw our troops, Meng Huo, the leader of the southern barbarians, gathered defeated skirmishers to attack the Shu army. Zhuge Liang learned that Meng Huo was not only brave and strong-willed, but also loyal to others. He is very popular among Yi people, even many Han people worship him, so he decided to win him over. Meng Huo is brave, but he is not good at fighting. The first time I went into battle, I saw the Shu soldiers retreating, thinking that the Shu soldiers were defeated by themselves and desperately chased them. As a result, they broke into an ambush and were captured.
Meng Huo decided that he was going to be executed by Zhuge Liang, so he told himself to die like a hero and not to be ashamed. Unexpectedly, Zhuge Liang personally untied him and persuaded him to submit. Meng Huo refused to accept the failure and refused arrogantly.
Zhuge Liang did not force him, but accompanied him to see the decorated military camp, and then asked him specially, "What do you think of the layout of this military camp?" Meng Huo watched carefully. He found that the barracks were full of old, weak and disabled soldiers, so he said bluntly, "I didn't know if you were real before, so I was defeated." Now I see your barracks. In that case, it is not difficult to beat you! " Zhuge Liang did not explain, but smiled and let Meng Huo go back. He knew that the jar would come to steal the camp tonight and immediately arranged an ambush.
When Meng Huo returned home, he proudly told his servants that the Shu army was old, weak and beaten, and the layout of the barracks had been clearly seen. It's no big deal. If he robs the camp at midnight tonight, Zhuge Liang will be caught. That evening, Meng Huo selected 500 swordsmen and quietly entered the camp of the Shu army. Nothing can stop them. Meng Huo was secretly happy and thought that success was imminent. Unexpectedly, the Shu army ambushed everywhere, and Meng Huo was captured again. Meng Huo was captured one after another and never dared to act rashly again.

The weather is very hot and there are many difficulties. Zhuge Liang ordered the construction of some rafts and bamboo rafts, and sent a few soldiers to pretend to cross the river, but when they reached the middle of the river, they immediately returned to the other side and then crossed the river. On the one hand, he divided his troops into two ways, bypassing the narrow places in the upper and lower reaches and crossing the river to surround the uptown where Meng Huo was holed up.
Later, Meng Huo was captured again. Although Meng Huo was captured for the third time, he was still unconvinced. Zhuge Liang still didn't kill him; Entertain him and send him back. Some soldiers don't understand Zhuge Liang's practice and think that he is kind and generous to Meng Huo. Zhuge Liang explained to everyone: "If our army wants to completely pacify the south, we must reuse people like Meng Huo. If he can really contact southerners to work for the court, he can be worth 100 thousand troops. You work harder now, and you don't have to fight here anymore. "
After Meng Huo was captured and released this time, he made up his mind not to fight the Shu soldiers. But as time goes on. The camp ran out of food and sent someone to borrow food from Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang agreed, but asked Meng Huo to go out in person and fight with the generals of the Shu army. Meng Huo defeated several Shu generals in succession, but as soon as he got a lot of food, he tripped over the horse rope and was captured.
Shu will immediately convey Zhuge Liang's orders and let Meng Huo go back to move food. In this case, Meng Huo finally admired Zhuge Liang from his heart.
In order to make all the tribes submit to Shu, he invited the tribal leaders to go with him. As a result, the Shu soldiers led them into an ambush and caught them all. Word came from the Shu camp that Meng Huo was going back, and many department leaders asked Meng Huo to be the main commander. What shall we do? Meng Huo said with tears: "I have never heard of that in the war, that is, seven times to catch (that is, six times to release and seven times to catch). The Prime Minister has done his best for us, and I have no face to go back. " In this way, Meng Huo and others finally obeyed Shu Han and the jurisdiction.
