弱肉強食(The strong saw the weak as nothing
more than food.)
中國的元王朝時代有一個著名的詩人,他的名字是(胡天游)。他生活的時代在元王朝的末年,當時中國各地很多興起反抗軍反抗殘暴的元王朝,但是反抗軍的勝利能夠真的為百姓帶來幸福嗎?。他寫過一首詩描繪當時的情況。
今天的西南方的天空感覺特別的明亮,有一個信使騎著一匹跑得很快的馬來到這個地方,這個信使帶來了傳來一個振奮人心的好消息。
那位來自中國的甘肅省的將軍是一個偉大的領導者,他在昨天的半夜帶領著他的軍隊再次順利的打敗反抗軍的軍隊並且佔領了一座城市。。
幾天之後,那個偉大的將軍來到了我們這座城市外,那個將軍帶領著他那些勇敢的士兵們用極快的速度打敗了駐守在我們住的這座城市中的反抗軍的軍隊。
那個駐守在這座城市中的反抗軍的領導者竟然還在睡覺的時候,他手下的那些士兵們已經死在大街上,他們的血流滿了整條街道,
那個偉大的將軍發動的這場奇襲非常的成功,他所帶領著這支軍隊中每個士兵都是偉大的英雄。
但我們沒有想到,這些士兵們佔領這座城市後,他們竟然跟反抗軍的士兵一樣的壞,他們用殘暴的行為對待我們。
我們就像大自然中的那些弱小的動物,我們這些弱者的肉成為強者的食物,
那個偉大的將軍手下的那些士兵們,他們強奪百姓的財產與食物,他們連小孩與老人都殺,我們這座城市中的婦女被他們抓到他們的軍營中,整座城市中迴盪的那些僥倖逃脫的倖存者的哭泣的聲音。
看到這個情況,年老的我嘆了一口氣,我們雖然脫離了反抗軍的掌握,但是卻陷入了這個掌握著巨大力量的元王朝的將軍的控制。
這句成語直接翻譯的意思是我們這些弱者的肉成為強者的食物
這句成語被用來形容一群弱者就像是強者口中的食物一樣。
親愛的朋友,你聽完這個故事有怎樣的感受或有怎樣的想法呢。

The strong saw the weak as nothing more
than food.(弱肉強食)
During the Yuan dynasty in China, there was
a famous poet named Hu Tianyou. He lived at the end of the dynasty, when many
rebellions broke out across China in opposition to its tyrannical rule. But
would victory truly bring happiness to the people? He wrote a poem describing
the situation at that time.
Today, the southwestern sky feels particularly
bright. A messenger riding a swift horse has arrived, bringing exciting news.
The general from Gansu Province in China is
a great leader. Last night at midnight, he led his army in a successful attack
on the rebel army and captured a city.
A few days later, the great general arrived
outside our city. He led his brave soldiers and swiftly defeated the rebel army
stationed there.
While the rebel leader was still asleep in
the city, his soldiers lay dead in the streets, their blood staining the entire
thoroughfare.
The general's surprise attack was a
resounding success — every soldier in his army was a hero.
However, we never imagined that, after
occupying the city, these soldiers would prove to be just as wicked as the
rebels and treat us brutally.
The strong saw the weak as nothing more
than food.
The great general's soldiers plundered the
people's property and food, killing even children and the elderly. The women of
our city were captured and taken to their camps, and the cries of those who
escaped echoed throughout the city.
Seeing this, I sighed in my old age.
Although we had escaped the rebels' control, we had fallen under the control of
this powerful Yuan Dynasty general.
The idiom literally translates as 'The
strong saw the weak as nothing more than food.'
It is used to describe a group of weak
people who are at the mercy of the strong.
