Origin Story
话说唐朝时期，边关告急，一位年轻的将军奉命前往支援。他挑选了一匹高头大马，这马名叫赤兔，毛色火红，膘肥体壮，四蹄有力，是将军的坐骑。将军跨上赤兔，一路疾驰，穿过山川河流，最终抵达战场，凭借赤兔的卓越速度和自身的英勇作战，成功击退了敌军，保卫了边疆安宁。此战之后，赤兔和将军双双名扬天下，赤兔成了高头大马的代名词，将军也成为了一代名将。这匹高头大马不仅是将军的战友，更是他忠诚勇敢的象征。从此，高头大马不仅指代体形高大强壮的好马，更代表了威武雄壮的气势，以及勇敢忠诚的品质。
In the Tang Dynasty, a young general was sent to support the border when it was in danger. He selected a fine horse named “Red Rabbit”. It had fiery red fur, was well-fed, strong, and had powerful hooves. It was the general's mount. The general rode Red Rabbit, galloping through mountains and rivers, and finally reached the battlefield. With the help of Red Rabbit’s excellent speed and his own bravery, he successfully repelled the enemy army and defended the peace on the border. After this battle, both Red Rabbit and the general became famous. Red Rabbit became synonymous with a great horse, and the general became a famous general. This fine horse was not only the general's comrade but also a symbol of his loyalty and bravery. From then on, a fine horse not only referred to a large and strong horse, but also represented a majestic demeanor, and the qualities of courage and loyalty.
