The War-horses Turning the Mill Once upon a time, there was a king who trained many strong and powerful war-horses. The ruler of a neighbouring country, which had planned to conquer his land, gave up the idea when he heard that the king had a lot of good horses. The king knew that his neighbour would not be declaring war on him, so what was the use of keeping the horses any more？ Thus he ordered that the eyes of the horses be covered and he sent the horses to turn the mills to earn more income for the country. Some years later, the ruler of the neighbouring country had trained his army and horses to try and invade the kings country. Now the king quickly ordered the war-horses to be sent to the battlefield to defend the country. The warriors rode on the horses trying to charge at the enemies but the horses now only knew how to turn round and round on the same spot. After so many years of turning the mill, the war-horses had forgotten how to charge at their enemies. Their enemies very easily won the war. 战马推磨 从前，有个国王驯养了很多身强体壮的战马。邻国本想侵占他的领土，却听说他有许多良好的战马，若打起仗来，难以获胜，就放弃了侵占这个国家的念头。 国王听到敌国不战自退的消息，很是高兴。他想：“我驯养战马的目的，是为了抵抗敌国的侵略，现在敌国既然不敢侵略我国了，驯养这些战马还有什么用呢? 于是，国王便下令，把所有战马的眼睛蒙起来，让它们挑起推磨的工作。这样一来，战马不但可以自食其力，还可增加国家的收入。 后来，战马推磨久了，便习惯于原地转圈了。 过了多年以后，邻国兵强马壮了，又来侵略他的领土。这时候，国王想起了战马的用处，立即下令，赶快把战马披挂上阵。 勇士们骑在战马上，列阵挥鞭向敌人冲杀，可惜这些战马由于常年来推磨碾米的缘故，到了战场上只会在原地转圈儿，却不向前冲锋。敌人见状，一起冲杀过来，打败了国王的军队。
