《淮南子·兵略训》
一般来说，人都是喜欢活着，憎恨死去的。但是，面对高高的城墙、深深的壕沟、矢箭如雨，平原广泽短兵相接厮杀时，士兵们仍然争先恐后抢在前面与敌军交战，不是他们不怕死、高兴受伤，而是因为君王将帅奖赏守信用、惩罚严明的缘故。
夫人之所乐者生也，而所憎者死也；然而高城深池，矢石若雨，平原广泽，白刃交接，而卒争先合者，彼非轻死而乐伤也，为其赏信而罚明也。
Generally speaking, people like to live and hate to die. However, in the face of high walls, deep trenches, arrows and rain, and short fights in the plains, soldiers still compete to be the first to fight with the enemy, not because they are not afraid of death or happy to be injured, but because the king and generals reward the credibility and punishment. The reason.
