Mysterious slogan

"An arrow went through the clouds and a large army came to meet it. "This sentence was made by Yan Li for deifying Li Zicheng. The so-called arrow through the clouds is actually a subtle expression of the word "Li". They say that the horizontal line and the upper part of the word "Li" are clouds, and the lower part is just an arrow and a son.

The so-called "flying arrows through the clouds" means that with the call of Li Zicheng's arms, all the thieves in the world come from the clouds.

At that time, a lot of propaganda work was done on the myth of Li Zicheng, and similar sentences included "Eighteen sons' main artifact", and eighteen sons were also "Li".

Later, Li Zicheng failed, but other people who wanted to oppose the imperial court, such as Hong Xiuquan and Zilianjiao, also found this sentence a bit mysterious and deceptive, and all quoted it. At this time, this sentence has become "slang", and "an arrow through the cloud" means rebellion.

Later, this sentence appeared in Stephen Chow's Kung Fu.
