They are so revered that some families still embalm the cat after death - a ritual for royal members or nobles to express their pity.

Thanks to this, King Cambyses II of Persia ordered his men to draw a cat figure on the shields for the vanguard.

He even forced hundreds of cats to come in front of the shield to 'lead the way '. This tactic has worked. The Egyptian archers could not fire the arrows for fear of being punished by the spirit spirit , leading to the fall of the Egyptian army and the Pharaoh's arrest.

As a result, the Nam Han army lost the battle, the enemy army died with half of the soldiers. 350 years later, this strategy of Ngo Quyen was once again recreated by Hung Dao Vuong Tran Quoc Tuan.

During the third invasion of Dai Viet by Nguyen Mong army, Tran Quoc Tuan took advantage of the tide to build piles on the Bach Dang River, destroying many large enemy ships led by O Ma Nhi.

This victory contributed to the victory of Dai Viet before the most powerful and powerful Mongolian empire of the time, and also brought Tran Quoc Tuan's name to the ranks of the greatest generals in history.

Nevsky lured the Teuton knights to pursue their army as they crossed the frozen lake. The ice on the lake was very thick, but it could not stand the weight of the Crusader armored army.

As a result, the ice break caused the majority of the Crusader soldiers to fall under the lake, creating an extremely chaotic scene. At that time, Nevsky's guerrillas came out, violently attacking the knights who were struggling in the cold lake water and pursuing people who fled in the forest.

The glorious victory of this battle played a very important role in Russian history, making Vuong Cong Nevsky a national hero, protecting Russia against foreign aggression.

Thanks to this heroic achievement, the Nevsky Duke was made a saint by the Eastern Orthodox Church.
