What does it mean that the cunning rabbit dies and is cooked by running dogs, and the flying birds are all good and the bow is hidden?

When the birds are gone, the good bows are hidden, the cunning rabbits are dead, and the lackeys are cooked. This is the origin of the idea of ??"cooking the rabbit after killing the dog, hiding the bird after using the bow". The running dog here is a dog that can run very fast. Walk means running in ancient Chinese. After killing all the birds, the good bow will be of no use. Well, the rabbit is dead, and the dog is useless, so why not cook it and eat it? This means that when a person loses his use value, he will be killed or end up worse than others.
