大家都很著急，這時(shí)管仲說軍中的老馬有認(rèn)路的本領(lǐng)。于是齊桓公讓管仲挑選了幾匹老馬，讓它們?cè)诖筌姷淖钋懊鎺?。最終走出了山谷，找到了回齊國的路。

An Old Horse Knows the Way
In the Spring and Autumn Period (chūn qiū 春秋時(shí)期,770-476 BC), Duke Huan of Qi (qí huán gōng 齊桓公) led an army to attack a small state in the north. They went in spring when green grass covered the ground. But when they came back it was winter. Everywhere was white with snow and the wind was howling. The troops lost their way.
While everybody was worrying, Guan Zhong, the duke's chief minister, said: "An old horse may know the way." So the duke ordered several old horses to be choosed to lead the army. In the end, they found the way back home.
This idiom refers to the value of experience.
