Idioms and allusions

In the spring and Autumn period, Qi Xianggong sent troops to attack the state of Lu one year, encircling the small city Longdi in the north of Lu. A favorite General of qiqinggong, named lupujiukui, wanted to fight for military success, so he first attacked the gate of Longdi. However, the guards of Longdi were very brave, and after some fighting, they caught him. Qi Qinggong was very anxious. He quickly sent a letter to say: don't kill Lu pukui. I promise not to enter the Dragon land, and I'm willing to make peace with you. But the soldiers in Longdi didn't listen. They killed lupukui and put his body on the wall for the Qi army to watch. For this reason, Qi Qinggong was very angry. He personally beat drums to supervise the battle. Qi army fought to the death, climbed up the city wall, and only took three days to attack Longdi, and then occupied Chaoqiu. The state of Wei was friendly with the state of Lu. Seeing that the state of Lu had been invaded, marquis Wei sent sun Liangfu and Shi Ji to rescue. The Wei army met the Qi army on the road. Seeing that the Qi army was very strong, Shi Ji was afraid and planned to withdraw, but Sun Liangfu didn't agree. Soon after the battle between the Wei army and the Qi army, they were defeated. Shi Ji said anxiously: I'm afraid the whole army will be destroyed if we fight any more. If you lose your army, you can't report back to the monarch. Mr. Sun, please take the army to retreat first. You are the Minister of the state of Wei. If you are injured, it will be a shame for us to defend the state. I will resist for a while. Sun Liangfu retreated, but Qi army held on. Fortunately, Zhongshu Yuxi, a new builder, stopped Qi army and saved sun Liangfu from disaster. After sun Liangfu was saved, he refused to give up. He ran to the state of Jin to ask for help. It happened that the state of Lu also sent Zang sun Xu, a doctor, to ask for help from the Marquis of Jin. At that time, the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army was Ke, who was in charge of the government of Jin. Ke had a grudge with Qi Qing Gong. He asked Jin Jing Gong to lead his troops to rescue Lu and Wei. Jin Jinggong agreed and said: let's use 700 chariots! However, the number of chariots was too small. I asked the Marquis of Jin to send more chariots. He told Jinggong of Jin Dynasty: 700 chariots. This is the number of chariots in the "battle of Chengpu" in Wengong of Jin Dynasty. It was because there were such wise monarchs as Wengong of Jin Dynasty and such witty doctors as Xianfu and Huyan that they won. But what about me? Compared with them, my ability is not as good as theirs. I'm afraid I'm not qualified to be their servant, so I asked to send 800 chariots! Jin Jinggong agreed to Ke's request and sent 800 chariots to him. He asked Ke to lead the Chinese army, Tu Xie to assist the army, Luan Shu to command the army, and Han Jue to serve as Sima. He drove to the state of Qi. In the battle, the state of Jin won, and the state of Qi took out many treasures to the state of Jin, and gave a large piece of land to the state of Lu. Jin and Qi formed an alliance in Aijiang.
