general qi jiguang had command of a quarter of the ming empires soldiers. when he sent mail to corrupt officials, he always ended the letter with "your humble lapdog/your ever loyal minion"


when corrupt official held a poem writing party, yue fei pushed him off his seat, drank a full cup of wine and wrote, "when the city is burning, you can write some more".

general qi sacrificed his dignity to keep fighting, instead of ending up like yue fei.
